Chapter 329: Borrowing Grain

Looking west from Jizhou, the Taihang Mountain, which stretches for hundreds of miles, is majestic and tall. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoWhen Zhang Liao crossed the Zhangshui River and arrived at Yecheng, he looked at the heavily guarded Yecheng and was not surprised in his heart.

The shadows investigating in this area have already heard the news that Han Fu's general Koyi has rebelled. And Han Fu led his soldiers and horses to the south to quell the chaos, returned in defeat, and retreated into the city, but fortunately, Koyi was also afraid and did not chase after him.

Thinking of the news that the shadow had previously inquired about Yuan Shao's secret alliance with Koyi, Zhang Liao concluded that Yuan Shao must be responsible for it, and Yuan Shao had already sharpened his knife to Han Fu.

At this time, Zhang Liao's side was Yuan Ji, Guo Jia, Dian Wei and two hundred tiger warriors, at this time, Dian Wei and two hundred tiger warriors all took off their masks and pretended to be ordinary guards, while the rest of the thousands of soldiers and horses were in the nearby mountains.

When he arrived outside the city gate, a guard immediately stepped forward to inquire, and Yuan Ji handed over his name to the soldier and asked him to forward it to Han Fu.

After a while, Han Fu came in a hurry, first watched from the city tower, and when he saw Yuan Ji's appearance, he couldn't help but look shocked, and quickly walked down and led people out of the city to greet him.

Han Fu was once a former official of the Yuan family, and he did not have a close relationship with Yuan Shao, who was born in Yeluzi, but was a court official with Yuan Ji, and he was a literati, which was quite close.

Soon, Han Fu followed Zhang Liao and Yuan Ji into the city.

In Yecheng, Zhang Liao couldn't help but laugh when he saw Shi A and a group of brake fighters wandering around disguised as ordinary people. Shi A inspected things in Hedong, and was first transferred by him to Changzi County to seek to seize the Shangdang, and after the Shangdang was taken, Zhang Liao, under Guo Jia's suggestion, immediately sent Shi A to infiltrate Yecheng in advance with the brake fighters.

Now in Yecheng, Shi A has already mixed in with the same expanded 400 brakes, and he can respond at any time.

Along the way, Han Fu looked shocked, and didn't notice anything else at all, until he arrived at the state capital, the shocked look on his face still did not decrease in the slightest, until the mansion, the wine was placed, and everyone was dismissed, Han Fu couldn't wait to look at Yuan Ji and asked, "Servant...... I heard that Taifu Manmen was killed by Dong Zhuo......"

Yuan Ji showed a sad look on his face and shook his head: "The past is not mentioned, in short, I was not in the house at the time, and I was fortunate to escape." ”

"This heavenly blessing is also." Han Fu breathed a sigh of relief.

Yuan Ji was obviously reluctant to mention these past events, and said: "Wenjie is now a high authority. ”

Han Fu hurriedly said: "In front of the servant, how dare you speak of high power, but I don't know where the servant comes from?" Could it be that it was from Yuan Che to ride there......"

When Han Fu said this, his expression was a little nervous.

Yuan Ji waved his hand, his face showed hatred, and he snorted: "Huti's two disobedient children, the Yuan family is full of people, and they are all burdened by the two of them!" ”

Han Fu saw that Yuan Ji resented Yuan Shao, his face couldn't help but relax slightly, and he sighed: "The original and the highway, it really shouldn't have been, like this, but I don't know where the servant came from?" ”

"Wenjie is still not called too servant," Yuan Ji said: "I am too guarded by the party today, and I have something to ask for this time." ”

"Huh? The servant actually became the party guard? In this way, we can help each other. Han Fu's face was overjoyed, and then he reacted again, and said busily: "Brother Bengu has nothing to say, just come if you have something." ”

He also took advantage of the trend and changed his name to Yuan Ji.

Yuan Ji hesitated, after all, it was difficult to speak, and looked at Zhang Liao on the side. As for Guo Jia, he was already drinking wine on the side at this time.

"Han Envoy, I came here to borrow food." Zhang Liao hugged his fist and saluted Han Fu, he smiled, he was now dressed as a scribe, with a beard sticky to his chin, it was impossible for Han Fu to recognize him. Although the Kwantung princes gritted their teeth at Zhang Liao, and Han Fu was also taken away, in fact, few people really recognized Zhang Liao.

"Borrowed food?" Hearing Zhang Liao speak, Han Fu stroked his beard under his chin, and glanced at Yuan Ji with a bit of self-satisfaction: "I don't know how much Brother Bengu wants to borrow?" ”

Jizhou is one of the best states in the world, the land is fertile and the grain is sufficient, although it was the key place of the Yellow Turban thieves in the Zhongping years, but then in the Jizhou Shepherd Emperor Fu Song at that time, he was exempted from paying taxes for several years, and has recuperated, so Jizhou is not short of food, although most of them are stored in the major families, but the warehouses in the prefectures and counties are not a few, enough to support ten years.

Therefore, Han Fu didn't care about Yuan Ji's borrowing of grain, his expression was quite complacent, and Yuan Ji, who was in a high position in the past, could ask for him, which was also a matter of self-satisfaction for him. In his mind, since Yuan Ji opened his mouth, it would be no problem to lend 100,000 stones, or even 300,000 stones.

Seeing Han Fu's posture, Zhang Liao said unceremoniously: "Five million stones." ”

Ga?! Han Fu, who was smiling and stroking his beard, shook his hand and pulled off a few beards.

Burst! Guo Jia, who was raising his glass to drink, squirted out a mouthful of wine.

Even Yuan Ji's face was stiff, and the corners of his eyes couldn't help twitching. Not to mention Han Fu, even he felt that the number of Zhang Liao's openings was too outrageous.

What is the amount of 500 stones, enough for 100,000 soldiers for two years!

Yuan Ji then thought that he didn't ask Zhang Liao about the amount of grain he wanted to borrow along the way, in his mind, it would be good to borrow 500,000 stones, but he didn't expect Zhang Liao to open his mouth to be 5 million stones!

Han Fu was obviously stunned by Zhang Liao's five million stones, and it took a while to come back to his senses and stretch out five fingers: "Five million stones? ”

Zhang Liao Zhengse said: "Yes, that's exactly the case." ”

Han Fu immediately shook his head: "No, no!" In the Yecheng warehouse, there are only two million stones of grain in stock, and it is impossible to lend them all! and pay salaries for the support of the soldiers. ”

Zhang Liao shook his head, with a sad look on his face: "Han Envoy Jun, if it weren't for us to wait for the lion to open his mouth, it was really at the end of the road, and hundreds of thousands of people in Shangdang County are now in dire straits, and there is a line between life and death." ”

Yuan Ji's face drooped, and even Guo Jia hurriedly lowered his head.

Han Fu was stunned and said, "Where do you say this?" Shangdang County is not without food? And Shangdang County only has a population of more than 100,000 people, how can there be hundreds of thousands of people? ”

Yuan Ji turned his head, and Guo Jia's head lowered.

Zhang Liao secretly pinched his thighs and continued to pretend to be sad: "Since last winter, the Xiongnu have been raging in Taiyuan County, and more than 100,000 displaced people have poured into the party. ”

Han Fu muttered: "The Huns are so powerful? Taiyuan County has a population of only 200,000, and half of them have escaped......"

Cough! Cough! Guo Jia couldn't help coughing.

Zhang Liao scolded in his heart, how could this Han Fu know so much about the population of each county? He didn't know that Han Fu was in charge of Hu Cao when he was in Shangshutai, so how could he not know about these numbers.

Although he scolded in his heart, Zhang Liao still had a look of lamentation on his face: "Taiyuan and Yanmen are full of displaced people, and the people who were originally protected by the powerful clan have also fled one after another. ”

Han Fu nodded at this time, he was in charge of the transfer of Cao, and naturally knew the severity of Haoqiang's concealment of the account.

Seeing this, Zhang Liao's heart was relieved, and he said: "What is even more hateful is the black mountain thief, Yang Feng, the captain of the Black Mountain, who robbed the county and township several times, so that he starved all over the place, it is really ...... Hi! I also hope that Han will help you. Now Yuan Yuanjun has been in Shangdang Tuntian, and a year later, the borrowed grain and grass will be returned to Jizhou in full for Han Envoy! ”

Han Fu was stunned for a while, and shook his head again and again: "Five hundred stones is too much, but there is no ...... in the warehouse."

Zhang Liao hurriedly said: "Jizhou is a large state in the world, with nine subordinate counties, and countless counties and townships, and the grain stored can last for ten years. ”

Yuan Ji and Guo Jia invariably raised their heads to drink, covering their faces with their sleeves. (To be continued.) )
