Chongzhou City is a very distinctive, north-south city. From the east to the west of the city, there are dozens of streets, but these streets together are not as long as the main street from south to north.

It stands to reason that in such an urban layout, the political center should be set up in the middle, and the same is true for ordinary cities. However, because of the special location of Chongzhou City and its important strategic location, the official residence of Chongzhou City is located in the northernmost part of the city.

This is not a layout formed after the division of Daqing, Chongzhou has been like this since history. In this way, the supply of grain and grass from the north, or the paperwork that needs to be handled by the caravan in Chongzhou, can be handled in the north of the city. Although such a location will make it a little inconvenient for the people in the south of Chongzhou City, this official mansion has never been opened for these ordinary people.

The emperor of Beiqing drove his own expedition this time, which can be said to be the strength of the entire Jiangbei, and most of the grain and grass reserves, except for the new grain that has not come down this year, are all stored in the north city of Chongzhou City at this time.

The entire Chongzhou City, from north to south, at this time one-third of the road section was occupied by the Beiqing army. Except for the military camp and the government, the rest of the place was used to store grain and grass. And that's just a small part of that. Beiqing has been in good weather in recent years, and the grain reserves are sufficient, although the private taxes are as heavy, and the Chaogang is not much better, but compared to Nanqing, which is a man-made disaster and a natural disaster, it is already much better.

Ruri didn't know this, she just saw that there were a lot of soldiers patrolling here, so she chose this place. After crossing a few roofs, with a slight touch of foot, this is another jump to a tree.

Standing on the trunk of the tree and looking at the brightly lit yard in front of her, Liuli felt that this should be a good place to set fires!

Deciding in his heart, Liuli got up and jumped down from the tree, looked at the left and right, and jumped into the courtyard......

Xu Yunpiao told Fan Gui about his intention to go back during the day, and his heart did not settle down for a day. She had already rested at this time, but at this time, she was lying on the bed but there was no way to fall asleep.

"I don't know if the hateful robber has already returned." Looking at the dagger in his hand, Xu Yunpiao couldn't help but think of Shi Yuanlai.

"It is said that it is to pay for his hairpin and sword, this parting, I am afraid that it will be the end of the ......" Thinking that he was going to leave tomorrow, he was afraid that he would never see Shi Yuan again in this life, Xu Yunpiao suddenly had a lot of emotion.

She couldn't sleep left and right, so she wanted to get up and sit in the courtyard. This is ridiculous, although she is the dignified queen of Beiqing, she is the only one living in this courtyard, and there are no maids or maids. But in this way, it is also leisurely, but Xu Yunpiao is quite accustomed to this.

I got up and put on my clothes and came to the courtyard, just sat down, and was looking at the lotus flowers in the courtyard pond in a daze, but I heard a sudden rush of footsteps outside the courtyard.

The footsteps startled her, but they didn't go to her heart. Her yard is right in front of the granary, and the grain and grass are in demand, and this kind of thing happens from time to time. However, just as she came back to her senses and didn't sit down, there was another rush of footsteps outside the courtyard!

"What's going on in this army?" Hearing the sound of footsteps one after another, she frowned suspiciously.

I was thinking about it, but I heard someone in the front yard shouting, "Oh no! The water is gone, the west courtyard is also watery......"

"Gone out of the water!?" Hearing this call, Xu Yunpiao immediately stood up! If you want grain and grass, how can you "walk water"? Thinking to himself, he went back to his room and changed into his armor, and headed out of the courtyard......

Shi Yuan told Liuli to let Liuli try to make the fire bigger. Liuli is also true, she first went to the east courtyard, and after lighting a fire, she ran to the west courtyard...... After lighting more than a dozen fires in the north of the city, she quietly went - she had to rush to the south of the city to send a signal to Shi Yuan and the others.

After Xu Yun floated out, he directly led people to the granary, and the news of "walking water" one after another on the road was unheard.

When Xu Yunmiao led people to the granary, Fan Guilai had already set up people in front of the granary. The face is solemn, but fortunately, there is no accident in this granary at this time......

Xu Yunpiao saw that the granary was fine, so he was relieved. Thinking about asking Fan Guilai what happened in the past, but thinking that he was going to leave tomorrow, and this kind of thing has never had anything to do with him, he finally gave up. But she also knew that she was not treated well by the ministers and generals of the Beiqing Dynasty, and of course she didn't want to be bored.

"Let's go back, see where to get water, let's go help!" With a command to his men, he turned his horse's head and went away......

When Xu Yun came over, Fan Guilai also saw it. He had a headache in his heart, and when he saw this queen lady coming here again, he felt troublesome in his heart. But seeing that the queen lady just glanced at it, she turned away, and then she was relieved - at this juncture, he didn't want this master to interfere.

"General Qiyu, there is also a fire in the general's mansion. Shall we go to the rescue? ”

The General's Mansion is where Fan Guilai temporarily lived in Chongzhou City, although it is a temporary residence, but in terms of marching and fighting, it is also where the Shuai camp is located. This handsome camp is on fire, but it's not a trivial matter!

"No, you don't! We just need to guard the granary. This firefighting matter will be handled by the prefect! But after listening to the advice of his subordinates, Fan Guilai shook his head, and didn't care about the fire in his mansion at all. Instead, all the firefighting matters were pushed onto the Chongzhou prefect.

"Can you find out the reason for the water walk?" After Fan Guilai finished speaking, he continued to ask.

"The cause of the water has not yet been ascertained, and there are more than a dozen fires, which are estimated to be ...... Artificial! ”

"A group of rice buckets, so many people, you can't even catch a single person!" Hearing this, Xu Yunpiao, who is known as a scholar, couldn't help but get angry, "Pass the order, all the people will strictly guard the granary for me, and not a single fly can be put in!" If something goes wrong with this granary, you just have to wait to lose your head! ”

Fan Guilai felt that the other party's main target was the granary nine times out of ten. It's just that he can't understand a little, since the other party has such skills, why didn't he just set fire to the warehouse, but set fire to more than ten places to attract their attention? Don't...... Does the other party have other plans? But in the entire Chongzhou City, there is nothing important except for this grain and grass...... If it is not for food and grass, what is the other party for?
