Bozhou, the soldiers who fled from the north were all over the city in the ice and snow.

The governor of Bozhou is very troubled, these defeated soldiers are nearly 10,000 people, they can't be driven away, and they can't be appeased, and they have to give them rations on time every day, otherwise they will rob and harass the people.

"My lord, something is wrong! Something is wrong! ”

Zhizhou was having a headache about the supply of food and grass for the army and the stability of the city, and suddenly heard the report from his subordinate officials in a hurry, and suddenly dropped the book he was holding in his hand.

"What's wrong?" Zhizhou's heart moved, and he put his hand on the bookcase, pretending to be calm.

"The soldiers surrounded the granary, and they wanted to grab the grain!" The official was very anxious, ran all the way, and after finishing speaking, he gasped for breath.

"Grab food? Didn't they send soldiers to garrison the grain and grass? Zhizhou's face changed greatly, once the granary was robbed, it indicated that the defeated soldiers were going to rebel, and Bozhou would definitely be in chaos, and he couldn't afford this responsibility.

"As far as the less than two hundred soldiers we sent, where is the opponent of thousands of routs, we can't stop it at all. Adults, think of a way, otherwise Bozhou City will be doomed! "The officials are pressing.

Hearing this, Zhizhou suddenly got up and immediately asked, "Where is the chapter system?" Let him lead people to suppress it immediately, and he must not let the rout take the granary! ”

"Once troops are sent to suppress it, a scuffle is inevitable, and the city of Bozhou will be destroyed. Besides, he only has more than 3,000 people, and even if he goes, he may not be able to reach nearly 10,000 people. When the officials heard that it was going to be suppressed, they immediately objected.

"If you don't suppress it, will you let them rob the granary?"

"If you can't move troops, you won't be able to stop fighting! The adults should go and appease them in person, maybe they won't dare to make another time when they see the adults here! ”

"This official has been unwell recently, and he can't stand the cold. Didn't Xin Qiji stay in the army, and get close to the military and the righteous army, pass on my order, let him go immediately to pacify the rout, if it doesn't work, he will be punished heavily! ”

"This ...... Okay, Xia Guan will go to Lord Xin. ”

"My lord, it's not good, the rout killed the granary guards and rushed into the granary!"

"What? Quickly go to the chapter system, Xin Qiji, be sure to suppress the rout, and recapture the granary! ”

"Go, go, go!"

Lord Zhizhou quickly asked the officials who came in to report to give orders to solve the problem of the rout army snatching the granary.

After the others had left, he began to pace around the room with his head bowed, and after coming and going a few times, he seemed to have made up his mind and hurried towards the inner courtyard.

The young Xin Qiji is looking through the accounts at the official office.

Shouldering the heavy responsibility of raising grain and grass for the front-line Northern Expeditionary Army, he couldn't sleep well for a few months, and after winter, the transportation of grain and grass became a problem, and the Guide Mansion repeatedly wrote to urge him to ask for grain and grass, which made him even more worried.

When he was busy, he suddenly heard someone talking to the official on duty outside the door, and he seemed to be quite anxious when he heard the voice and tone.

Xin Qiji immediately put down the account book and the pen in his hand, and said loudly: "What's the matter?" Come in and elaborate. ”

As soon as the words fell, a servant came in quickly, hurriedly saluted, and then hurriedly said: "Lord Xin, the city is besieging the granary, and Lord Zhizhou asked Lord Xin to deal with it immediately." ”

Hearing this, Xin Qiji was shocked, hurriedly got up, and asked anxiously, "How many people?" Why the siege of the granary? ”

"Almost all the routs in the city have surrounded them, and the reason is unknown."

Nearly 10,000 defeated soldiers have recently poured in the city, no food or drink, and the vast snow has closed the road, they are unwilling to leave, the demand for food in Bozhou City has skyrocketed for a while, and the granary is suddenly overstretched, if the good life is distributed, it is not a problem to hold on for ten days and half a month, but if the granary is robbed and loses order, Bozhou will be in a mess of porridge, not to mention raising grain and grass for the front line, and even whether it can keep Bozhou City is unknown.

Once the rout breaks out, no one dares to imagine what it will do.

"Prepare the horses."

Xin Qiji instantly understood the seriousness of the siege of the granary, immediately put down the account book, and walked quickly towards the outside of the official office.

At the same time, he said: "Tell Lord Zhizhou, please bring troops to the granary immediately to maintain order." ”

"Someone has already gone to give orders."

Out of the official office, Xin Qijian turned over and got on his horse, urging the horse to go towards the granary in the north of the city.

In the north of Bozhou City, within a hundred zhang from the gate of the granary, there are all routs, rubbing shoulders one after another, pushing and rushing towards the direction of the granary, some people have no armor, some people have no weapons, and some people have no armor and weapons.

The rout army squeezed forward and back, pushing and shoving, and their target was the grain in the granary, and if there was food, they could survive in the ice and snow.

Hungry with their hearts close to their backs, cold and hungry, they only have food in their eyes, whoever dares to stand in their way wants their lives, and whoever dares to ask for their lives, they will fight with whomever they want, including other defeated soldiers around them who they don't know at all.

Walking forward, a person was unsuspecting and was pushed hard from behind, almost fell to the ground, fortunately he still had some strength, reacted quickly, grabbed the arm of the predecessor, and did not fall, otherwise once he fell to the ground, he would never have a chance to get up, and he would be trampled to death on the spot by the person who squeezed up from behind.

In the horror of life and death, after escaping the catastrophe, the rout turned angrily and smashed a punch straight into the face of the rout directly behind.

The rout behind him, just squeezing forward, where would he have thought that someone was going to turn around and attack him, and he was immediately hit by a punch in the face, his eyes were full of stars, his nose bone was broken, and the blood in his nose was immediately pouring out.

The pain was instantly transmitted to the brain, and the defeated soldier fixed his eyes on the person in front of him, and immediately punched back.

After being hungry for a few days, the two of them didn't have much strength, they shouted in their mouths, and after throwing a few punches with all their strength, they immediately ran out of strength, tearing and entanglement.

The two of them tore apart, pushing each other backwards and backwards, left and right, and the team that was originally moving slowly in the hustle and bustle was suddenly chaotic, and they blocked the way for other rout soldiers to grab food.

The shouting and scolding that suddenly broke out in the crowd suppressed the scolding and shouting of the two defeated soldiers who were fighting in an instant.

A small fight in the rout team did not affect the progress of the whole team towards the granary.

In a short time, the two men who were fighting were scattered by the rout, and they did not know where they were.

At the rear of the team, the slow-moving rout squeezed desperately forward, and at the front of the entire team, the rout at the door of the granary, crowded towards the door and squeezed into the door.

The routed soldiers who entered the granary, regardless of the joy, scattered their legs and galloped to the storehouse with grain.

When I approached the storeroom, I saw that there were iron locks on the doors, and it was impossible to open them with bare hands.

"Hurry up and open the door for Lao Tzu!"

The rout stretched out his hand and pointed at the guards hiding by the door, and scolded him.

"I don't have a key. Don't come here! The guards held their guns and kept six feet away from the rout.

"Give Lao Tzu the key, and I'll spare your life, if you don't have the key, then die!" As he spoke, he pulled out his saber, and although he had no armor on his body, he was obviously not an ordinary soldier.

"The key is in the hands of the warehouse keeper, I don't have the key, don't force me, if you force me again, you have to pull a few pads on your back when you die! If you are not afraid of death, just come here, you have fought, and I also have sixteen enemy heads in the military tent! ”

As the guard spoke, he thrust his spear forward and pressed it towards the other side.

As soon as the sword-wielding rout saw that the opponent was about to fight desperately, he immediately waved his hand and asked the other rout soldiers to retreat.

They just ran all the way back to Bozhou from the north in order to survive, and now they are also in order to eat enough to live, so they came to the granary to grab grain, and the warehouse with grain is in front of them, why fight and lose their lives.

"Since you have also been on the battlefield, then the well water does not interfere with the river water, today we came here to eat and eat, we don't embarrass you, you don't stand in our way." The sword-wielding rout stepped back and retracted his sword.

"Where is the barn keeper?" The rout asked loudly.

"Was that guy standing in the way at the door?" There is a rout.

"It seems to be, I seem to have heard him say something about him, saying that he is the Bozhou warehouse keeper." Another rout added.

"What about people? Find it. The sword-wielding rout turned back and ordered.

"I just knocked out and threw it aside, I don't know if I'm still alive."

"If you can't get out, it's all people, and if you squeeze it out, you can't get in."

When the swordsman looked back, the door was full of people swarming, and it was not easy to get out.

"Tear down the door!"

The sword-wielding rout gave an order, and the rout with weapons immediately stepped forward and slashed and poked at the wooden door.

After a short time, the door of the storeroom was broken and he was kicked to the ground.

"Brothers, it's time to move grain!"

The storehouse opened, and the rout swarmed in.

A moment later, the rout, carrying the grain, came out of the storehouse and went straight to the door of the granary.

However, nearly 10,000 defeated soldiers were desperately rushing to the granary, and when they saw that some people had already received food, they squeezed it even harder, and the defeated soldiers with food had no way out at all.

The people who got the food wanted to go out, and the people who were desperately squeezing in saw that someone was getting the food, and they squeezed even harder.

As more and more people came in, it didn't take long for the people with the grain to not even get out of the storehouse.

The rout team outside the granary was still slowly moving inch by inch in the direction of the granary.

Suddenly, a voice came from behind them: "Lord Xin has arrived!" Move! ”

As soon as the defeated soldiers heard that an official from the imperial court had arrived, they were shocked, and they subconsciously dispersed to both sides.

But at this moment, a voice came from the crowd: "Can't let it!" If we don't resist, we'll starve to death! ”

As soon as they heard this, the defeated soldiers immediately stood firm, and they didn't even look back, ignoring the other party's shouting.

"Retreat to the south of the city, you are still a rout, but the rout is also a rout of the Great Song Dynasty! It's the soldiers of the court, and the court won't let you starve to death! I am the governor of Bozhou, and I promise you that as long as you retreat to the south of the city, you will only come and take my life if you lose two meals a day! Xin Qiqi stopped his horse and shouted loudly to the routs who were still crowded forward.

As soon as these words came out, there were routs who turned back.

Xin Qiji immediately said: "If you continue to move forward and grab the granary, then you are not a Great Song Dynasty rout, but a Great Song rebel!" If you become a rebel in the Great Song Dynasty, not only will you die, but your family will also be affected, is it worth grabbing the granary? ”
