Two days later, Gao Guiying, escorted by Wu Ermao, finally approached Xining, and when Li Zicheng heard the message, he immediately took his own soldiers and rushed to Shixia in the east of Xining to meet him.

Shixia because the terrain is extremely steep, become the east gate of Xining City, there are two small flag soldiers stationed, the small flag officer suddenly saw dozens of cavalry, nervous, hurriedly closed the pass, and found out that it was Li Zicheng, and hurriedly opened the pass, and received Li Zicheng into the pass, "the subordinates do not know that the adult is there in person......

"You did a good job, close the pass first when the situation is unclear," Li Zicheng patted the back of the little flag officer, "Is there anything going on in the east?" ”

"East?" The little flag officer thought that there was some hostile situation, and became nervous again, "My lord, my subordinates just came from the east, and I didn't find anything ......."

"Oh, maybe they haven't arrived yet," Li Zicheng motioned to He Mi to go to the east with the little flag officer, but he walked around the pass in a leisurely manner, and did not find any loopholes in the defense, so he leaned back in his chair and took a nap.

It was close to noon, and He Xiaoxiao reported, "My lord, hundreds of people have come to the east, I don't know if it's Wu Ermao and them, and his subordinates have already sent people to investigate." ”

"Hundreds?" Li Zicheng got up with a bone, "Could it be that Gao Yingxiang's main force is coming?" Let's go, let's see! ”

He Xiaomiwei was behind Li Zicheng and said, "From a distance, it doesn't look like an army, but like a fleeing citizen." ”

Li Zicheng took three steps and two steps, and had come to the east gate of Shixia, and looked at it from a distance, and sure enough, there was a figure of black pressure, and then I saw two fast horses galloping out of the crowd and going straight to Shixia.

He Xiaomi said in a low voice: "My lord, it is our brother right away." ”

"Oh, let's see what message they bring back!" Li Zicheng's eyes have been looking in the crowd, but at this time, they are far away, and they can't see Gao Guiying's shadow at all.

After a while, the two fast horses had come to the mouth of Shixia, the soldiers on the pass opened the pass, let them enter the pass, the two soldiers left the war horses outside the pass, walked into the pass, saw Li Zicheng, and hurriedly kowtowed to report, "Subordinates knock to see the lord!" ”

Li Zicheng didn't tell the soldiers about Gao Guiying, so the soldiers thought that Li Zicheng was greeting Wu Ermao and them.

"Why are there so many people? Who are they? Li Zicheng frowned and asked.

"Lord Hui, they are all the people of Shaanxi, because they have no food to eat, they have become homeless, and they have been blackmailed and bullied by officers and soldiers and thieves, and they have not eaten for two or three days."

"Wu Ermao can be in the crowd?"

"Here, Wu Ermao is walking slowly with a lady, it seems that the woman is not hungry, and her spirit is good."

That woman must be Gao Guiying, otherwise, Wu Ermao would not accompany her, Li Zicheng said to He Xiaomi: "Get out of the customs and greet Wu Ermao and them." ”

"My lord," He Xiaoxiao hurriedly pulled Li Zicheng's shirt, "My lord, the other party has a large number of people, and the situation is unknown, you can't just rely on Wu Ermao's presence to ......"

"Xiaomi, you have to let the people in front of you know that you said such a thing, I'm afraid that someone will uncover your skin," Li Zicheng laughed and touched He Xiaomi's head, "Don't ink, go out of the customs immediately to greet you!" ”

He Xiaomi was stunned for a moment, and then he felt that something was wrong, the adults rushed to Shixia to greet Thirty Miles, how could it be for Wu Ermao? Busy said, "Yes, the subordinates will prepare horses for adults!" ”

More than 20 riders, such as flying towards the opposite crowd, but in the blink of an eye, they came to the crowd.

Wu Ermao led a group of brothers, suddenly at the front of the crowd, and knelt on the ground collectively, "Knock on the big brother!" ”

"Ermao, brothers, get up!" Li Zicheng turned over and dismounted, but his eyes searched in the crowd, and suddenly two people squeezed out from behind in the crowd, a man and a woman, although after a long journey, both of them looked haggard, but their eyes were shining, the woman was originally rushing towards Li Zicheng, but there were still two steps away from Li Zicheng, and suddenly stopped.

"Gui Ying!"

"Self-contained!"

Li Zicheng opened his arms and won, Gao Guiying's brain was hot, and he couldn't care about the hundreds of eyes around him anymore, so he took a step, and finally made a small jump, which happened to jump into Li Zicheng's arms.

Li Zicheng caught it, turned his body around, and turned around in place before he stabilized his body, "Gui Ying, I finally found you!" ”

"Me too, finally found you!" Gao Guiying knelt on Li Zicheng's shoulder, closed his eyes, and never wanted to open them again, time seemed to stand still, if he had a choice, Gao Guiying would like to stay at this moment forever.

"Ahem...... cough ......" The young man who followed Gao Guiying coughed very inappropriately.

Gao Guiying was suddenly ashamed, her face turned red, she hurriedly got out of Li Zicheng's arms as if she had been electrocuted, and turned her back to Li Zicheng, but she gave the coughing man a roll of her eyes, and her face couldn't help but turn red.

"A gong?" Li Zicheng took two steps, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Have you always had a good life?" ”

"I thought I only remembered my sister, but I forgot about it!" Gao Yigong rolled his eyes and smiled stupidly, "Zicheng, I'm hungry, when I get to your territory, can you get me some food first?" ”

"Ao, millet, take out the dry food and water first!"

He Xiaomi untied the dry food and water bottle he carried with him and handed it to Gao Yigong, and another personal soldier handed his dry food and water to Gao Guiying.

Gao Yigong bit hard, choked and rolled his eyes, drank two sips of water, and then eased up, "Self-made, it's still ...... Anything else? These people haven't eaten for two days......"

Just as Gao Yigong was speaking, the people had already spontaneously gathered around, and the eyes that had lost their spirit just now immediately shone brightly, all staring at the pancakes in Gao Yigong and Gao Guiying's hands.

Li Zicheng frowned, because he didn't know that so many people accompanied him, and if he was not marching long distances, the dry food on the soldiers was not much, even if he took it out, it was not enough for these people to share.

Watching the people rush up, Li Zicheng still has a layer of worry, that is, the people will be in chaos, hundreds of people without any training, hungry for two days, once they see the pancakes, they are not crazy and snatch them, especially the current pancakes are far from enough to distribute.

Gao Yigong saw that the situation was not right, immediately pulled out a knife in his hand, and shouted: "Line up, if anyone is messed up, I will kill whoever I want, and I will save waste of food!" ”

He Xiaomi and other personal soldiers also drew their swords to each other, and the people stopped walking, but their dull eyes were still staring at the pancakes.

Li Zicheng took two steps and said loudly: "Don't worry, everyone line up in order, there will be pancakes, if you can't eat enough, you will go to the Shixia in front of you for a while, and there will be enough steamed buns and clear soup, if anyone is crowded, it will not only affect the speed of distributing pancakes, but also military law is not allowed, you finally escaped with your lives, don't die in your own hands at the last moment!" ”

After that, he also showed his waist knife and made a downward cutting posture.

Gao Yigong saw that the people began to line up in two teams, so he stepped forward and kicked the people who tried to cut into the queue twice, and the soldiers began to distribute the pancakes, He Xiaomi, Lei Wanjun each led more than ten soldiers, and distributed them in turn, regardless of old and young, each person only had one-third of the fast pancakes.

Before the soldiers were halfway through, the people in front had already eaten the pancakes, and their eyes were on the pancakes in the hands of the soldiers, Gao Yigong was worried that these people would snatch other people's pancakes, once chaos occurred, these hungry people who almost collapsed, there must be many people who were trampled to death, he waved the steel knife in his hand, and said sharply: "My lord said, there are white-flour steamed buns in front, if anyone dares to rob other people's pancakes, Lao Tzu will immediately kill him!" ”

Seeing that a tall man's eyes radiated a rush to grab, he raised his steel knife and ran towards the people, making a gesture to cut them, and the people immediately spread them to the ground, "My lord, the grass people...... The grass people are really hungry...... "Holding his stomach, he rolled on the ground twice, and then pressed his stomach with his hand, "My lord, it's okay......"

Gao Yigong wanted to give him the small half of the pancake that he hadn't eaten yet, Li Zicheng stopped him with his eyes, if someone made trouble, they would get the pancake, didn't that encourage them to make trouble? Besides, if others follow suit, how can there be many pancakes for the time being?

Gao Guiying also looked unbearable, but Li Zicheng naturally didn't allow it, and she didn't dare to make a mistake, after all, these people had nothing to do with Li Zicheng.

Gao Yigong thought about it, but kicked his feet at the people lying on the ground, "If you want to eat enough, why don't you get up quickly?" The adult said, when you get to the front, there are white-flour steamed buns. ”

Li Zicheng nodded silently, this is a high level of skill, and his brain is not bad.

The people had no choice but to get up and continue to walk forward, those who had already eaten the pancakes also ran towards Shixia with him, Li Zicheng called a personal soldier and asked him to ride a horse to run quickly towards Shixia, and asked Shixia to prepare more steamed bread and noodle soup.

When all the people rushed to Shixia, the white flour steamed buns had not yet been steamed, but several large pots of flour soup had been made, and all the pots and bowls were carried to the open space east of Shixia.

Under the reprimand of Gao Yigong, the people lined up again, and saw several large pots of flour soup in front of them, they suddenly became fond of their mouths, and their eyes lit up, no matter what, flour soup is better than white water, this time it is not as anxious as before, first, there are some pancakes at the bottom, and the hunger in the stomach is slightly reduced, and secondly, there are a lot of flour soup, and they can't eat it for a while.

The people made a list of five teams, and each person came with a bowl of noodle soup in order, and did not need pickles, and drank it as white water, and the person who received the noodle soup did not go far, but returned to the end of the line, ready to ask for the next bowl.

Half an hour later, the white flour steamed buns were finally sent to Shixia, and in a large number of baskets, the number of steamed buns was afraid to be thousands, and it seems that Shixia may have used all the stored grain.

When only steamed buns were distributed, the soldiers originally prepared two for each person to distribute them at a time, but Li Zicheng objected: each person was given one first, and after eating, they could go to the back to line up and receive the next one.

Gao Yigong was puzzled, "Self-contained, wouldn't it be easy to send it once?" ”
