The drought in the Sanfu area was alleviated for a while by the relief of Chang'an, but as the grain in Taicang ran out, the effects of the drought hit again.

This time, even the military rations of Li Dao and Guo Yan had problems.

Seeing that the soldiers under their command were almost out of food, Li Dao and Guo Yan were also anxious.

After thinking about it, Li Wei planned to snatch the food and salary of the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government to make an emergency, and Guo Yan also agreed very much after listening to Li Wei's proposal.

Soon, Li Dao and Guo Yan gathered their soldiers to prepare for action.

After Jia Xu learned the news, he hurriedly rushed to Li Dao to dissuade him, because robbing the ministers of the DPRK and China would not solve the fundamental problem at all.

Although Li Dao listened to Jia Xu's suggestion, he did not take it, because Li Dao had already been corrupted by power.

Jia Xu, who was helpless, had no choice but to stop talking.

Subsequently, Li Dao and Guo Yan led the team in such a grand manner to take away the food and salary issued to the hundreds of officials in the court.

The hundred officials of the court and the central government dared to be angry when they learned that Li Dao and Guo Yan had taken away their food and salary, after all, Li Dao and Guo Yan had heavy troops.

After robbing the 100 officials of the DPRK and the Central Committee of the DPRK of their salaries, Li Dao and Guo Yan immediately distributed them, but the salaries of the 100 officials of the DPRK and the Central Committee only lasted for more than 10 days before they were exhausted.

Faced with such a difficult situation, Li Dao decided not to care about the lives of the people, and he directly ordered the soldiers to find their own lives.

With Li Dao's approval, the Xiliang soldiers under his command completely let go of themselves, and they began to plunder the people to keep themselves alive.

For a time, the entire Sanfu area was smoky.

Knowing that the soldiers of Xiliang continued to kill the people, Zi Liu Xie could only secretly feel sad in the palace.

Because of the wanton plundering of the Xiliang army, the people in the Sanfu region finally couldn't bear it anymore and began to move south on a large scale.

This time, because of the shortage of food, Li Dao and Guo Yan did not send troops to block the road, and the people were able to continue to move south.

As the victims continued to move south, Wang Kai, who was in Hanzhong County, soon received the news.

When Wang Kai learned that a large number of refugees were pouring into Hanzhong County, he immediately sent Qin Qiong and Luo Cheng to Tin County and Anyang County respectively, because Wang Kai was afraid that the large number of victims would cause turmoil in Hanzhong County.

After Luo Cheng and Qin Qiong were stationed in Tin County and Anyang County respectively, the victims who had fled from the Sanfu area began to pour into Hanzhong County in droves.

Knowing that the victims were pouring in in droves, Qin Qiong and Luo Cheng were actually not very good at this kind of thing, so they all let the victims enter the country without refusal.

In just a few days, a large number of victims appeared in Hanzhong County.

Because these victims were starving, the somewhat stable environment in Hanzhong County was broken, and the incidents caused by the victims in various counties continued to increase.

Seeing the chaos in Hanzhong County, Zhang Lu, who was forced to return to Wang Kai, had bad intentions, and he took advantage of the chaos caused by the disaster to constantly use the Wudoumi Sect to recruit henchmen.

Ma He, who was monitoring Zhang Lu, was distracted by the affairs of the victims, and as a result, Zhang Lu took the opportunity to develop henchmen and followers, and the matter was not exposed.

As more and more victims of the disaster came, Wang Kai was anxious to deal with it for a while, and then suddenly summoned Yan Pu and said to him: "Yan Hucao, how many victims have we taken in in recent days?" ”

"Lord Hui, there should be about 80,000 victims of the disaster that General Luo and General Qin put into Hanzhong County, and if this continues, we will have to take out the food for the winter to help the victims."

After hearing this, Wang Kai suddenly thought: 'No, if it goes on like this, the grain depot in Hanzhong County will be empty sooner or later, if there is no food, then I can only sit and be trapped in Hanzhong County for a single step and not move.' ’

Thinking of this, Wang Kai began to ponder the best way to solve the disaster victims in history.

Seeing Wang Kai pondering, Yan Pu had no choice but to wait quietly.

After a while, Wang Kai said loudly: "Yan Hucao, you pass on my order, let the major families in Hanzhong County pay to hire those disaster victims to work, we can't continue to give money in vain, we must let these disaster victims support themselves, by the way, how much money those big families have paid, I will double it for them in the future." ”

"Is this possible, sir?"

"Don't worry so much, do as I do."

"The subordinate obeys!"

Yan Pu immediately began to act after leaving.

As Wang Kai's policy of rehousing the victims continued, the people of the big families waited and watched, because they were not sure if Wang Kai's actions would work.

Because the enthusiasm of the big families was not high, Wang Kai decided to give in by force.

Taken by Wang Kai's obscenity, the big families of Hanzhong County had to act according to Wang Kai's wishes.

With the help of the big families, the vicious incidents in Hanzhong County began to gradually decline, because the victims who had nothing to do now had something to do, and they no longer had the energy to make trouble.

After Wang Kai's treatment, Hanzhong County passed the population explosion period smoothly.

In the end, Wang Kai once again gathered about 100,000 victims, and some of the victims entered the borders of Yizhou and Jingzhou respectively, but the number was relatively small, because Hanzhong County, where Wang Kai was located, absorbed most of the victims.

Although Wang Kai gained a population of more than 100,000, he left a hidden danger, that is, Zhang Lu took the opportunity to develop many believers in the Wudoumi Sect, and these believers were still washed by Zhang Lu.

While Wang Kai was recruiting displaced people in Hanzhong County, Han Sui of Xiliang sent someone to send a letter of peace to Ma Teng.

When Ma Teng received Han Sui's letter of request for peace, he immediately fell into a state of hesitation after reading it, because Han Sui invited him to send troops to attack Si Li together.

After pacing left and right with Han Sui's letter, Ma Teng finally decided to agree to Han Sui's request.

Soon, Ma Teng sent someone to send Han Sui his reply.

After Han Sui read Ma Teng's reply, he immediately laughed.

After that, Han Sui and Ma Teng began to transfer their own troops.

It didn't take long for Han Sui and Ma Teng to each lead 20,000 horses to Ji County, Hanyang County.

After the convergence, Han Sui and Ma Teng soon got together.

When Han Sui saw Ma Teng, he immediately smiled and said, "General Ma, don't come unharmed!" ”

"General Han, we are each other!"

Immediately after, Han Sui and Ma Teng suddenly burst out laughing.

After laughing, Han Sui said: "General Ma, it really surprised me that you could promise me to send troops to Si Li, after all, we were inseparable from Liangzhou before!" ”

"General Han, I am also thinking about myself, now that Guanzhong is in turmoil, tens of thousands of people have moved south, how could I give up such a good opportunity, as long as I defeat Li Dao and Guo Yan, I can replace the Xiliang thief."

Hearing this, Han Sui immediately chuckled twice, because he also planned to do so.

After a few conversations, because Han Sui and Ma Teng couldn't fully trust each other, their troops were stationed separately.

After trimming for the night, Ma Teng and Han Sui began to march towards Chang'an.

It didn't take long for Li Dao and Guo Yan, who were sitting in Chang'an, to learn the news of Xiliang Ma Teng and Han Sui's joint attack.

When he first heard the news, Li Dao was still a little incredulous, because Ma Teng was helped by him, but when Li Dao confirmed the authenticity of the news, he immediately scolded Ma Teng angrily.

After the scolding, Li Dao ordered Guo Yan, Fan Chou, and his nephew Li Li to send troops to meet the combined forces of Ma Teng and Han Sui.
