Chapter 274: Buying Grain and Grabbing Grain
A big flood had to bring Bai Xiao's army to a standstill.
If the army has no head and goes further, it is very likely that something will happen, and as for the problem of grain and grass, it can only be levied in Jizhou on the spot.
Jizhou is not a merger, there is fertile land everywhere, and every household is not short of food, especially those large households, it is not an exaggeration to say that the grain and grass are piled up.
The digging of the embankment of the Fuyang River has a great impact on the people, but it is nothing to these big households?
There are two ways to collect grain, one is to buy grain, and the other is to grab grain, which can be said to be carried out at the same time.
Qu Lian is responsible for the grain grabbing, but there are not many people who can use Bai Xiao now, and the gold and silver that Qu Lian snatched by the way were handed over to Dian Rou to buy grain, and Dian Rou had no idea about these things in secret.
First, the fewer people who know these things, the better, and second, Bai Xiao is afraid that she won't be able to accept it.
These big households are really bold enough to dare to wait for the price to sell, and the price of grain has increased more than tenfold according to the original market price.
Of course, it is not only for Bai Xiao, but also for the people affected by the disaster.
Qi Yang: "Big brother, haven't you always wanted to buy people's hearts?" Now you can put the grain. ”
"I heard you right! How can we share it with others if we don't have enough to eat ourselves? ”
"Whether the food is enough to eat, only we know, outsiders don't know, as long as we continue to release food, outsiders don't know our roots, we should always find an excuse for stagnation!"
Qi Yang's intentions, Bai Xiao couldn't understand it, but one thing is for sure, Qi Yang didn't hold back any good farts here.
Who is it estimated that is being calculated? Bai Xiao just played with him once, so what's the matter.
Not to mention that this grain and grass has been released, there are still many unexpected harvests, the soldiers in the army think that their own grain and grass are abundant, and the army's morale is gradually stable, and the nearby big families think that Bai Xiao is strong and have taken refuge.
This money, food and people, Bai Xiao received it softly.
Dian Rou began to complain here, "Husband, this grain is getting more and more expensive, do we still want to continue to buy it?" ”
"Of course, I'm not short of money."
"Alright then!"
Dian Rou already faintly felt that something was wrong, she also knew some things in the army, where did so much gold and silver come from the baggage in the army, this is too strange.
Qi Yang can now come down and walk around, "Big brother, you can't hide it for long." ”
"It's a moment to be able to hide it! Let Qu Lian move faster, I want a lot of money. ”
"I'm afraid Qu Lian's manpower is a little insufficient."
"Then let Bai Jian go, didn't those black-hearted big businessmen make a lot of money from me? Then let them spit it out all at once. ”
The wool came out of the sheep, and Bai Xiao did not lose at all.
The vanguard army led by Gu Ju has entered Changshan County, which is not good news for Bai Xiao, which means that a vicious battle is coming again.
The enemy's edge must be thwarted, otherwise this battle will not be fought.
Although all the generals have recovered a little strength, it is still not possible to let them lead the troops into battle.
100,000 troops, 30,000 cavalry, it's not that Bai Xiao doesn't have war horses, but Bai Xiao can't afford to raise more cavalry, this time Bai Xiao let Dian Rou bring it all, and he must kill Gu Ju back.
If you want to win through cavalry, you need to keep rushing and killing, which shouldn't be difficult for Dianrou.
Before Dian Rou sent out the troops, Bai Xiaoqian told Wan Wan not to play any tactics with Gu Ju, and kill the poor Kou Mo when he saw someone.
Dian Rou is definitely the kind of woman who marries her husband, don't look at how strong she was before she got married, but after she got married, she was obedient.
She really did exactly what Bai Xiao said, Gu Ju originally wanted to fight against her?
But Dian Rou rushed over without saying a word, in the face of absolute strength, all means are useless.
Gu Ju suffered a lot of losses for this, and it was not until Sun Cuo arrived with the main army that the situation was stabilized.
Dian Rou is really a woman who doesn't let her eyebrows, and once she killed Sun Cuo's seven generals, Sun Cuo's heart was distressed, "Collect the troops." ”
Gu Ju: "Lord, Bai Xiao hasn't appeared at this time, it's very wrong!" ”
"That's because Bai Xiao can't move at all." Sun Xia walked in from outside, and a heavy flood washed him away, and he had just rushed back.
"What's going on?"
Sun Xia knelt on one knee, "If you return to the lord, Bai Xiao and other generals are poisoned, and it is the hands of his subordinates, so Bai Xiao will dig the Fuyang River as a last resort." ”
"Okay, Bai Xiao, you also have today!"
After going through so many things, Gu Ju is undoubtedly cautious, "The lord must not be careless, Bai Xiao's 100,000 army is intact, and the generals can also be promoted from it, not to be underestimated." ”
"I understand."
30,000 wolf riders in the state are all four-legged, Sun Cuo can't leave all the people, but he must leave Dian Rou behind.
As long as Dian Rou is in hand, Sun Cuo will not believe that Bai Xiao will not comply.
The next day of the battle, Dian Rou charged forward as usual, but with the continuous fighting, Dian Rou and the follow-up cavalry got farther and farther away, it turned out that Sun Cuo deliberately put Dian Rou in.
Sun Cuo can be regarded as a bait by example, but his attraction is still a little worse.
Dian Rou saw that the situation was not right, so she killed her alone.
But there is a saying that it is easier to get in and harder to get out, and behind Dianrou are pikemen.
They were given an order to keep the horse at all costs, and it sounded ridiculous, but it was really useful.
The cow was covered in wounds and finally fell to the ground, unable to run.
Dian Rou also fell down, and glanced back at Sun Cuo's smug smile, "Kill, the one who stands in my way will die." ”
The 30,000 wolf riders of the state are also rushing to kill at the risk of death, and they don't dare to leave Dianrou here.
Dian Rou led the troops alone for the first time, how could Bai Xiao rest assured, so he secretly sent Qu Lian to follow, it can be said that Bai Xiao had already sent all the generals who could be used at the moment, and he had no reservations at all.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Qu Lian killed him from the side.
As the so-called bystander Qing, Qu Lian has been staring at these archers on the side? It was his only chance to get in.
Once the archers get close, they are no different from ordinary young people, and Qu Lian drove them to rush in, "Save the master mother." ”
"Hurry up and stop them." This sudden variable made Sun Cuo have a very bad premonition.
As soon as the flanks were chaotic, the fighting spirit was chaotic, but the wolf cavalry in Bingzhou was fighting against the enemy, the front army was still defeated, and Dian Rou smoothly joined the wolf cavalry.
Sun Cuo punched the chariot and fell short.
Dian Rou carried out a recoil kill, in order to save Qu Lian, "General Qu, thank you so much this time." ”
"The master doesn't have to be like this, the last general also acts according to orders, and the lord has the order to withdraw the troops."
Bai Xiao knew very well that if Sun Cuo and these people came in handy, it would mean that Dian Rou would no longer have the means to deal with the Jizhou soldiers independently, so it would be better to retreat.
It was easy for the cavalry to withdraw, and even if there were more troops on Sun Cuo's side, they could only eat ashes in the back.
Dian Rou has just retreated, and Bai Xiao's camp has also had an accident.
Bai Gang is still not as good as Qu Lian! Especially for grabbing money and food, I don't know how his name of slaughter came from, his hands and feet are really unclean.
Unexpectedly, people escaped and there was a rumor, and now those black-hearted businessmen and big families were in danger, and they all ran away.
Then where can Bai Xiao go to buy grain and grab grain, he can't conjure it up!
