Chapter Fifty-Seven: Grain and Smoke Everywhere
On the second day of the first month of October, the three-day period promised by the Northern King Miquan to Sui Wang Yingyong had expired, but the soldiers under his command did not find the slightest trace of those traitors, so they became panicked......
"I knew this was the case, why did I vote for these southern barbarians!"
Ying Yong sighed, although he is now under the fence, but as the minister of the "Hanshui Princess", he despises the people from the land of Jingchu from the bottom of his heart.
Ying Ning's staff members are mediocre people, taking the surname of the country, and the single name is a dark character, seeing that Ying Ning is panicked, Yong Di also persuaded: "Now that the three-day deadline has passed, the king of the north will kill indiscriminately, and he will not easily spare the king, follow the king, why don't we lead the troops to respond to the city first, pack up the gold and stone grain, and then go south to take refuge in [King Zhe]?" ”
"King Zhe?" Ying Steroid thought of this person.
"Hmm!" Yong Di nodded and said: "King Zhe's soldiers are strong and strong, and in the Jing Kingdom, there are only a handful of people who can compete with the [King Zhe's Army], even if it is the Northern King Miquan, I am afraid that this person has to think about it...... King Zhe is bold, suitable for the king and King Zhe have an old relationship, why not vote for King Zhe?! ”
"Good! The widow should pack up his belongings and go south to join the king, and it is too uneasy to stay here anywhere! ”
"As it should be."
was about to prepare to gather the men and horses under his command, but he didn't expect a bad news to come as scheduled.
Yingcheng granary was actually burned!!
This is the lifeblood of Ying Steroid!
"Who did it!" After Ying Steroid got the news, he immediately asked angrily to the messenger.
Before he could answer, he heard the sound of armor outside, and Yong Di looked through the crack in the window, and then said with a panicked face: "Follow the king...... It's the general of the Northern King Army! ”
Fisherman?!
Before Ying Ning could panic, Yong Di said again: "There are still leather armor soldiers of the Northern King Army behind!" ”
Ying Steroid was completely panicked, but after a few breaths, the heavily armed fisherman entered the house, caught a glimpse of Ying Steroid, and said: "Follow the king, the king of the north is invited!" ”
The Northern Wangjun is now stationed in Suidu, Ying Ning entered Suidu with the fishing labor, but at the gate of the old Suiwang Palace, several acquaintances were found, Qianjiang Wang, Yun Duhou, An Lubo and others, these people are important local magnates in Jiangxia County occupied by the Northern Wangjun.
Seeing Ying Ning coming, the King of Qianjiang also asked with a surprised face: "Why, the Yingcheng granary with the king was also burned?!" ”
Also?!
Ying Yong was surprised and asked rhetorically: "Several people's granaries were burned down by bandits?!" ”
King Qianjiang replied: "Alas...... It's all careless, the Qianjiang granary is a thief pretending to be a person from the grain collection team, attacking and killing more than 1,000 red turban troops in Qianjiang, and then burning the granary with a fire, and Qianjiang City was almost not saved! ”
"We are all here...... "Yun Duhou and An Lugong behind him all sighed.
Hearing this, Ying Ning's heart was a little relaxed, and now he knows that the granaries of Jiangxia County have been troubled, so he is not as nervous as before, after all, the law does not blame the public.
The princes also sighed for a while, and after a while, they were summoned into the palace of the original king by the king of the north.
Sure enough, looking at the appearance of the cups and plates in this hall, everyone knows that this is just here, and the king of the north is probably angry!
"See the King of the North!" Many princes also saluted.
Although there are many princes of Jing, they are not all treated equally, under the heavenly prince, there are four kings of east, west, north and south, and under them, there are kings of blood or meritorious people, such as King Shou, and then King Zhe, and then under them are like King Sui, King Qianjiang, these local princes who are not worthy of the name.
Ying Yong saw that there was still a new military advisor from Yingdu sitting next to him, and his heart suddenly settled down a lot, after all, he escaped his life from the sword of the Northern King last time, and it was the credit of this person.
The king of the north seemed to be a little calmer than he imagined, and looked at several local princes and said, "Let's talk about it, how much food do you have left in your hands?!" ”
King Qianjiang had to take out his private treasury of grain to recharge, and said: "Xiao Wang desperately snatched the grain of Bailai Stone in the hands of the bandits. ”
It's not easy to say much about the many Qianjiang kings, after all, the number of his own clansmen is not small, and these hundred stones are also the food that he had to take out in order to save his life.
"Hundred stones?" Beiwang Miquan snorted coldly and said: "I'm afraid that if I have tens of thousands of troops for one person, this hundred stones will be gone!" ”
The king of Qianjiang didn't dare to reply, and then the king of the north looked at several other princes, and Ying Ning was so frightened that he trembled, and then said: "Xiao Wang also just heard that the granary of Yingcheng was lost, and he has been searching for rebels with the king of the north in the past few days, so he doesn't know anything!" ”
"Did the traitor find it?!"
At this time, how could he answer no, and at that moment Ying Yong said in his heart: "I found some defectors who may be traitors!" ”
In the past few days, the king of the north has also sent people to search for rebels everywhere, but he didn't expect that these rebels didn't know what way to find them, so they directly burned several important granaries in Jiangxia, and they found nothing, and they didn't even see the shadow of the entourage.
Looking at it this way, Mi Quan's anger against the steroid was also relieved a little, and then Du Jianghou and An Lugong also had their own words, which made Beiwang feel that he had punched the cotton, which was really infuriating!
Mi Quan glanced at Mi Yun on the side a few times, if it weren't for this [Tiangong's eyeliner] staring, he would definitely have to teach these few things a lesson, so that they can have a good memory.
"Say, what about the shortage of military rations, if there is no solution, the widows will use all your relatives as slave soldiers!"
Slave soldiers!
This is even more miserable than the titular slave "cloth soldiers", who are placed at the front when they fight, and are completely used as cannon fodder.
"The King of the North spares his life! The king of the north spares his life...... The king of the north spares his life! At that moment, the legs of several princes shook into chaff.
And the military advisor who came from Yingdu next to him also said: "King Bei, now I am worried that the granary of Jingling is also ......."
The reason why the king of the north was able to restrain himself was that the granary of Wulin under his personal jurisdiction was that the grain requisitioned south of the river was retained, reaching more than sixty percent of the grain collected in the entire Jiangxia County, such a quantity of grain in hand, although the granaries in other places said that something had happened, Mi Quan was not angry, but it was not so out of proportion!
"And it's just that the road to Jingling is far away, and the widows along the way have sent people to guard it, and the widows have left the general and the fox to lead 10,000 Northern King troops to garrison, including 3,000 leather armor soldiers stationed in Jingling, Wulin, and Yidu, and they will become horns with each other, and they must not be lost!"
As soon as Mi Quan's words fell, he heard that the general Ju Neng walked up to the main hall and said with a panicked expression: "King Bei, Jingling...... The Ulin granary was burned down by the rebels! ”
Mi Quan's expression froze, and then he roared: "Ju Neng, what did you say?" It's impossible, and what about the fox people!! ”
Ju Neng replied: "King Bei, Ulin was really burned overnight, and the fox led people to fight the fire at dawn, but he was killed by the rebel ambush at the border of Ulin Road!" ”
"How dare a thief!"
Mi Quan slapped the table case angrily, and shouted at the moment, and then felt that his heart was surging with blood, and his eyes were dark, and he fainted!
