Jiang Quanyi did not answer Zu Dabi directly, but first glanced back at Wu Zheng.

Wu Zheng snorted angrily, "Speak...... You've done it all, are you still afraid to talk about it? ”

Jiang Quanyi replied to Zu Dabi at this time: "Of the more than 3,000 people arrested, more than 500 are your people...... More than 340 people were killed on the spot. ”

When Zu Dabi heard this, his eyes shrank, a total of more than 570 people were killed, and more than 340 people were killed by himself, it seems that Taizhou Wei still has a choice.

Wu Zheng's face became gentle, "General Zu, if this king says that this incident is an accident, do you believe it?" ”

Zu Dabi said in a sullen voice: "The two armies are fighting, each is its master, no wonder Jiang Du commands this, let alone the prince...... It's just that Zu hopes that this matter will end here, otherwise he is afraid that it will cause turmoil in the hearts of the army...... The subordinates have no other intentions, just tell the truth, and hope that the prince will understand. ”

Wu Zheng shook his hand and said, "No, absolutely not...... This is also to blame for this king, and he should not have gone out of the city in person at that time. Of course, having said that, General Zu hadn't done it anyway at that time, and the two sides were enemies rather than friends, so it was no wonder that Taizhou Wei did this. ”

These words made Zu Dabi's face change.

Wu Zheng smiled and said, "This king knows that General Zu has a grudge against this matter in his heart...... ”

Zu Dabi hurriedly said: "Zu has no resentment, the prince is right, it was hostile at that time, and the Taizhou guards ...... There was no fault, it was just a misunderstanding at best. ”

"Good!" Wu Zhengwen laughed when he heard this, "This misunderstanding is a good word...... Since it was a misunderstanding, the explanation will be in the past, General Zu is now under the command of Jiang Du, and I hope that the two of you will have the misunderstanding from now on, and you will work with one heart and one mind. ”

"Listen to the prince." Zu Dabi immediately bowed to Jiang Quanyi and said, "In the future, I hope that Jiang Du will command a lot of support, Zu is polite." ”

Jiang Quanyi smiled and arched his hand: "General Zu, you and I don't know each other, Jiang is polite." ”

Wu Zheng snorted and said: "The war is urgent, you will talk about it after you go down, let's talk about the aftermath, pacify the people and how to defend the city." ”

Jiang Quanyi nodded and said: "The last general has ordered the Taizhou Guard to temporarily deploy the four city gates, maintain order in the city, and clean up the original Huai'an and Dahe Second Guards...... It's just how to co-opt, and the prince has to set a strategy. ”

"How many are there?"

"There are more than 3,000 people in Huai'anwei and more than 5,000 people in Dahewei." Glancing at Zu Dabi, Jiang Quanyi continued, "There are more than five hundred people under the ancestral command. ”

Wu Zheng thought for a moment and said: "Huai'an, Dahe Erwei prisoners, and surrendered troops are all supplemented into Taizhou Guard...... As for the more than 500 people. ”

Speaking of this, Wu Zheng looked at Zu Dabi, "It's better to hand it over to Zu's command, and it can be regarded as returning the thing to its original owner." ”

Zu Dabi got up and arched his hand and said, "Thank you, Lord Wang." ”

Wu Zheng pressed his hands and said, "Sit down and talk, you don't have to be formal." ”

Jiang Quanyi said: "I have received the news that General Lu led Wu Songwei to the west and has reached Qinggou, if it goes well, it should arrive in Huai'an City in two days...... The last general means that Wu Songwei will defend the east and south gates, and Taizhou will defend the west and north gates, I don't know what the prince thinks? ”

Wu Zheng thought for a while and said, "Let's change it." ”

Jiang Quanyi was stunned for a moment, then reacted, nodded and said, "It's okay...... Just do what the prince wants. ”

Zu Dabi also understood on the side, he was subordinate to Taizhou Wei at this time, if the west and north gates were deployed, once the Qing army on the other side of the river launched an attack, he would face the "comrades" of the past, which must be very embarrassing.

Zu Dabi looked at Wu Zheng and bowed his head slightly to express his gratitude.

Wu Zheng smiled and said to Jiang Quanyi: "Except for those who do have evidence and are extremely heinous, everyone else should be let go." The families of the people who suffered this time should be given generous compensation...... According to the salary standards of the original Huai'an and Dahewei, the compensation will be ...... Five years. ”

"Yes."

"If the victims have minor children and no relatives at home, they will be sent to Hangzhou after the war and raised by the government."

"Yes."

"What is the situation of grain storage in the city?"

Jiang Quanyi didn't answer, and glanced at Zu Dabi first.

Zu Dabi hurriedly replied: "Back to the prince's words, the eastern city has the most grain reserves, but unfortunately it was burned, and the other three gates are all in the grain reserves, although there was a shortage of grain in the city before, but the three places together, should not be less than 60,000 stones, enough for 40,000 troops to defend the city for half a month." ”

Wu Zheng asked, "What about the hundreds of thousands of people in the city?" ”

If it weren't for the outbreak of war, there would be more than 200,000 people in Huai'an City, but just as Wu Zheng guessed, when the Han people heard that the war was ignited, they subconsciously thought of just fleeing, and they were not excited because it was the king's northern expedition and the recovery of rivers and mountains.

The city is not ten households and nine empty, but at least more than thirty percent empty, but even so, there are still thirteen or forty thousand people, Zu Dabi strictly controlled the grain on the market before, and seized all the rice shops in the city to ensure the consumption of the army.

After more than ten days, the people couldn't stand it, but there was some surplus food at home, and there was no way to borrow some from relatives and friends, and no one had starved to death.

But Taizhou Wei conquered Huai'an City at this time, and the first thing Wu Zheng had to face was the food problem.

Because if it drags on, people will really starve to death.

In other words, Wu Zheng inadvertently carried a black pot for Zu Dabi. If Taizhou Wei did not break the city, the people's grievances would naturally be sent to Zu Dabi, but Taizhou Wei broke the city, then Wu Zheng had to carry this matter.

If you don't starve to death, it's easy to say anything, but once you starve to death, it's a huge civil unrest.

In addition, Taizhou Wei arrested the soldiers of the second guard in the city before, and saw a lot of blood, the scale of this storm can be imagined.

Wu Zheng realized this, but there was nothing he could do.

The rear route was cut off, and it was almost impossible to transport food until reinforcements broke through the enemy cavalry.

If Jiangdu is still in his hands, he can transport it by canal, but Jiangdu has been abandoned, and it is impossible to recover it in a short period of time.

The problem is serious!

Jiang Quanyi frowned and said: "There is already a rice shortage in the city, at least tens of thousands of people, the family has been cut off, many families, only drink one meal a day, within two days, I am afraid that there will be no more than one meal of water...... At that time, even if there is no enemy to attack, the city itself will be in chaos. ”

When Wu Zheng heard this, he couldn't help frowning, indeed, food is a big problem, when Taizhou Wei went north, although he had prepared enough military rations, but after all, it was a march to fight, and it was impossible to bring a lot, but according to the original ten-day rations, he brought twice as much.

This battle lasted for nearly half a month, that is to say, Taizhou Wei's military rations were only enough for himself to eat for six or seven days.

In this way, it was difficult for Wu Zheng to distribute the military rations of Taizhou Wei to the hungry people in the city.
