Chapter 231: There Will Be Food
Zhang Dujian and Zhang Tuanlian's house was attacked by the homeless, and the two died heroically when they fought bravely against the gangsters in order to resist the homeless. In addition to the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Happy Lin was also robbed, and the money was swept away, but fortunately, the shopkeeper Jiang Menshen was not there.
Liu Jing, as the governor of the state, immediately brought people to comfort the families of Zhang Dujian and Zhang Tuanlian, provided the protection of the officials, and took over the happy forest.
This made Liu Jingru a treasure, if Zhang Dujian and Jiang Menshen were suspected of colluding with the rebels, then this rebellion was a deliberate provocation, and it had nothing to do with political achievements, even if it was to fight the board, it would be much lighter.
After controlling the three key places, Lin Chong invited the three major and eleven small grain merchants to drink tea.
Fourteen grain merchants trembled one by one, holding tea cups in both hands and shivering. It's too terrifying, the officer in front of him spoke to them instead of Liu Jing,
Lin Chong's first sentence was "Zhang Dujian and Zhang Tuanlian were unfortunately killed, give us a reminder, the remnants of the bandits in the city have not been cleared up, and you must be more vigilant." Otherwise, like the two Zhangs, it would be a pity to sleep with a head and not get up. ”
Before their minds were stable, Lin Chong said again, "It is said that Jiang Menshen went to the city to be a bandit during the day and came back at night to be a shopkeeper, you are very familiar with him, right?" ”
Everyone's teeth are about to be shattered, and this can still be charged with rebellion, but they want to raid their homes and exterminate their clans. Finally, someone couldn't hold it, and the tea cup fell to the ground.
Lin Chong smiled, picked up the broken porcelain on the ground, threw it in the waste basket, and patted the man's shoulder.
The man subconsciously stood up and said in his mouth, "Lord Lin......"
"Wang Yuanwai, I remember that your family is one of the three major grain merchants, and you donated fifty stone of millet in the morning, right?"
Wang Yuanwai's cold sweat still kept flowing, this form is already obvious, Zhang Dujian, Zhang Tuanlian, and Jiang Menshen were all abolished by Liu Jin and the lord in front of him, they didn't care about Wang Jinjing, the backstage boss in Tokyo.
Forget it, Tokyo can't quench your thirst far away, and now there is no other way except to surrender to Cheng, you are seeking money, and your life is really over.
"Lord Lin, in order to exterminate the rebellious people as soon as possible and restore the local peace in Mengzhou, the villain will find a way to raise two thousand stone millet rice!"
One stone, one hundred and twenty catties, and two thousand stones is three hundred and sixty thousand catties. One person has half a catty of rations a day, and 100,000 rebellious people consume 50,000 catties a day, which can support a week, which is not enough, at least for a month and a half, that is to say, 12,000 stone of grain is needed.
This king is quite well-behaved, and plans to exchange food for his life, although there is still room for it, but for the sake of him being the first to stand up and support, he will let him go.
"Wang Yuanwai is really benevolent and righteous, Lord Liu will definitely send someone to protect the safety of your family."
Although the grain merchants were in pain, the bloody facts were in front of them, and Wang Yuanwai set an example, and the thirteen large and small grain merchants all gritted their teeth and bled one after another. After finally scraping together enough food for 8,000 stones, Lin Chong let them go.
According to estimates, there is still a gap of 4,000 stones, but Lin Chong knows that this can be regarded as holding the family of these grain merchants, so he can only find another way.
Liu Jing saw that Lin Chong really got the food, and had to admire Lin Chong's decisiveness. However, the four thousand stone grain still needs to be solved, and those who travel a hundred miles are half ninety, and this last tremor will still be wasted if it is not done well.
"Borrowed food? Who can I borrow from? These grain merchants are about to be emptied! Don't think about military rations, that's going to cost your head! ”
Lin Chong shrugged, he still had this common sense, and no one could keep the military rations if he moved. Don't talk about military rations, even if there is less forage to feed the horses, it is also a capital crime, otherwise the forage field guarded by Lin Chong will be burned, and he can only die and be forced to go to Liangshan.
"And don't worry, I mean to apply for relief from the imperial court, and at the same time, you can borrow grain from Xijing, Huaizhou, Zezhou, Zhengzhou and other places, otherwise once the chaotic people flow to their jurisdiction, they will be even more troublesome!"
Liu Jing thought about it, it's really like this, they are all brothers who eat in a pot, don't watch my family suffer, you have to help too, otherwise I can't hold back, and you don't want to be better.
"Okay, then I'll try it! By the way, what's the battle going at the East Gate? ”
For these rioters, Lin Chong was not worried at all. Because Lu Qing transformed five chariots according to Lin Chong's concept, this kind of large-scale killing weapon has not been used in actual combat, and this time it can be used to deal with the dense exile army.
In the afternoon, the defenders of Mengzhou still firmly grasped the initiative on the battlefield, and in the face of 40,000 displaced people who did not have large siege equipment, although the defensive strength of 5,000 people was not enough to crush the opponent, it was absolutely enough to deal with the city defense.
The time the displaced people broke the city in the morning, but it was intentional to cooperate with the suppression of Zhang Tuanlian, the supervisor of the capital, and the gap was completely closed in just a quarter of an hour afterwards.
Liu Jing saw the dawn of a smooth solution to the problem, and followed Lin Chong in and out all day long.
Seeing the military appearance and discipline of the Wild Wolf Army, as well as various professional operations, medical aid, sanitation and cleaning, logistics support, etc., I had to smack my tongue.
"Lord Lin, your army is simply amazing! I've been an official for more than ten years, I've seen a lot of troops, and I've also seen Sanya and Imperial Banzhi in Tokyo, and that formation is also extraordinary, but compared with your wolf army, I always feel that it's still a little bit worse. ”
Lin Chong said haha, "No, the Sanya Forbidden Army, the Imperial Front Banzhi, those are the elite of the elite, I can't make a small fuss on the table." ”
Liu Jing saw that Lin Chong didn't want to say more, and he didn't entangle. But looking at the Wild Wolf Army, and then looking at the local Xiang Army in Mengzhou, I clearly felt a huge gap in my heart, and suddenly my heart moved.
In the face of the tide of displaced people under the city, the soldiers of the Mengzhou Xiang Army were nervous, and some closed their eyes to release arrows and throw stones, even if they were rotated, they still couldn't suppress their nervousness and excitement.
And the Wild Wolf Army, whether officers or ordinary soldiers, are calm, and even the soldiers who take turns to rest are sleeping at the foot of the city wall leaning on their backpacks, this composure is definitely not pretending.
Why can they be fearless? I'm afraid that it is strong self-confidence that will make them so reassured.
It is no wonder that the right city defense that the Wild Wolf Army is responsible for is not leaky, and the lethality is super strong, whether it is defense or counterattack, it is smooth.
The exiled army has suffered heavy losses repeatedly, and now it does not attack to the right, but only concentrates on the area defended by the local army of Mengzhou on the left, which makes the defenders on the left complain.
Several local catchers and heads complained several times in front of Liu Jing, there was no battle on the right, can you let the wolf army change positions and switch to the left.
Lin Chong said with a smile when he found out, don't you have to be so troublesome, didn't he Jiang Men God use food to control the homeless? Now that the porridge shop has been set up in Mengzhou, I only need to tell the homeless people to go there to eat enough, I want to see how many people still give their lives to Jiang Menshen!
