Chapter XVIII Borrowing Grain 2

Ritsukagawa glanced back at Liu Zhi and asked, "Do you think we can rush into the earthen castle of those rich people now?"

Five or six hundred people and thirty or so people are indeed not the same concept. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info Liu smiled and didn't answer.

Xu Huang said: "My army, is it at your order to rob?" Don't think about it, you can do it yourself, don't pull me. ā€

Ritsu Kagawa corrected him and said, "We just went to borrow grain for the emperor, but we borrowed it, not robbed it." The emperor is starving here, but those rich people are eating and drinking at home, can you bear it? ā€

Oh, yes! There are so many people here in the emperor, you can't keep eating wild vegetables like this! What kind of system is this? Xu Huang was silent on the spot.

Just do it, but before leaving, they still have to consider the safety of Emperor Xian here, and they have to leave people in the base camp to guard it.

Ritsukagawa said, "He Cai, you will lead a hundred brothers. Stay here and protect the emperor! ā€

Of course, He Cai didn't have anything to say about this, but Xu Huang had a different opinion, he said: "I have a lot of people under me, and the responsibility of guarding the emperor should be borne by my side!"

Ritsukagawa glanced at him and said, "My people came over automatically."

One sentence blocked Xu Huang back. Protecting the emperor is a great achievement, and of course Xu Huang doesn't want Ritsu Kagawa to receive this credit alone. But Ritsu Kagawa was right. His people are voluntarily converted.

This shows that his people are more reliable. And Xu Huang's subordinates were subdued by him. If they are not there, and those who remain here mutiniate again, who can afford the consequences?

And so it was settled. The two parties led more than 500 people, and without explaining the details to Emperor Xian, Liu Zhi led the way and went straight to the house of a wealthy family closest to here.

The village where Emperor Xian and they temporarily lived was already under the jurisdiction of Anyi County. Twenty-five miles away, there is a village called Wangjiaying. Wang Bao, a wealthy family in Wangjiaying, has a rich family, grabs grain, and borrows grain. If you borrow grain from his house, it will not be empty.

Liu Zhi is often active in this area and is very familiar with the surrounding situation. While walking, Liu Zhi told Ritsukagawa and others about the situation in Wang's camp.

Wang Bao's home, in Wang's camp, is an earthen fortress. The courtyard wall is three zhang high and several meters thick, which is simply a small city wall. At this time, the four fields were all hungry, and the rich could not worry.

In order to protect their wealth, rich rich people also fight. There are more than 200 nursing homes for the Wang family. These people are long-term workers when they are farming, and they are nursing homes when they are free.

In this troubled world, it is not easy for people to follow a rich rich man and get a bite to eat. Therefore, these nursing homes are loyal to the Wang family.

In fact, this loyalty does not come from feelings for the royal family, but from their own needs. It is better to follow the Wang family than to live outside.

Therefore, Liu Zhi said to Ritsu Kagawa: "Lord Ritsu, with so many of our manpower, if we really want to storm Wangjiabao, we really can't say how much chance we have."

Hearing his words, Ritsu Kagawa smiled slightly and said, "I said, we really just went to borrow grain, why do we want to storm Wangjiabao?"

These words made Liu Zhi, Xu Huang and others suspicious. At this time, there is a shortage of food everywhere, and if you borrow it, you must be willing to give it!

But Ritsukagawa didn't worry much about it. Liu Zhi and Xu Huang saw him like this, so they didn't speak, but just walked forward with him.

Hundreds of people went to the village to transfer their households, and about half an hour later, they came to Wangjiaying. Looking at this village from a distance, it seems that there are many households, and when you walk in, many of the houses are dilapidated. There weren't many people in there.

This is the same as what I have seen along the way. There are many villages in Siye, but there are not many villagers. Around the time of the war, the population was greatly damaged! Seeing their group from a distance, the strong laborers had already avoided so as not to be caught.

The same is true of Wangjiaying, but in addition to ordinary houses, Ritsu Kagawa can clearly see that in the center of the village, there is a behemoth. It's like a castle, looking down on everything outside.

This is probably Wangjiabao, and the courtyard walls outside are all made of bluestone. Layer upon layer. It is more than a few feet high, giving people a very majestic feeling.

In the face of such a fortress, how can Ritsukagawa borrow food? Liu Zhi and the others really don't know, they have to see how Ritsu Kagawa behaves.

Lu Xiangchuan did not make a fool of himself, and took these hundreds of people to the gate of Wangjiabao, although he saw that the gate of Wang's house was closed, he just didn't see it, and said to Liu Zhixu Huang and others: "Open the banner you brought."

These people brought by Liu Zhi and Xu Huang were all under the banner of the Han army, and when they were leaving, Ritsu Kagawa specially instructed them to bring them. At this time, hearing Ritsu Kagawa's order, those of these soldiers holding the flag held up the Chinese character flag.

Seeing the flag erected, Lu Xiangchuan came to the gate of Wangjiabao and said loudly: "Listen to the people of the Wang family inside, we are the emperor of the Han Dynasty, and we specially came to your Wangjiabao today to borrow grain. The Son of Heaven is in trouble, and the people have the obligation to support it, so give food quickly! ā€

When he said this, Liu Zhixu Huang on the side was simply stunned, and said in his heart that you said a few words, just want people to give you food, is it so easy? Where are the two willing to believe in their hearts.

And after he finished saying this, the people inside did not respond, and after waiting for a while, Ritsu Kagawa said again: "If you don't support the current saint, the Son of Heaven is angry, don't regret it!"

Seeing that there was still no sound inside, Ritsu Kagawa looked back at Liu Zhi and Xu Huang, and said to them, "It's your turn."

Neither of them knew what Ritsukagawa was trying to do with them. So they all ask, "What are we going to do?"

Ritsukagawa said: "Demonstrate, tell them that if they don't borrow food, we may get in."

This Yanagi will be. So after listening to Ritsu Kagawa's words, Liu Zhi stepped forward and scolded: "The surname Wang, now that the emperor is in trouble, you have a fucking house hiding food, but you refuse to take out a grain of rice to support the saint, so wolf-hearted, the heavenly army will enter the castle, and you will not be left behind."

As soon as he took the lead, other people also clamored. On top of the high wall, there was finally an echo.

In fact, as soon as so many of them arrived, the lookout post in the fort had already seen it, but they didn't know what their intentions were, so they refused to speak up.

At this time, it seemed to know their intentions, and someone from above handed them a message. One said: "You said that you are the emperor under the throne." What proof is there? ā€

Seeing that there was finally something to speak above, Liu Zhi stopped scolding, and Lu Xiangchuan took a few steps forward and said: "I am offering His Majesty the emperor to drive the former imperial lieutenant Yang Xiu to protect the emperor across the Yellow River. Your royal family has been Han Ming for generations, and you feel the grace of heaven. Don't you want to repay the Holy God at this time when the country is in danger? ā€

The person above listened to his words and reprimanded: "Nonsense, now the Taiwei is clearly Yang Biao, when is it Yang Xiu." Who are you who dare to come here to cheat? ā€

It seems that this man knows something and is not so easy to deceive.

However, although the lie was exposed, Ritsu Kagawa was not panicked, he said: "Yang Biao is my father, and when he crossed the river yesterday, he was unfortunately killed by thieves and arrows. The saint was grateful for his father's protection, and hastily asked me to temporarily take the position of captain. I will make arrangements when I return to the palace in the future. Don't talk nonsense, whether to borrow grain or not. ā€

Speaking of later, Ritsu Kagawa was very loud, and Liu Zhi in the back would also come to the incident, and led his subordinates to shout: "Do you want to borrow or not?"

The voice above hesitated for a moment, and then a voice floated down and asked, "How many do you want to borrow?"

When Xu Huang and Liu Zhi heard this, they were all surprised, they didn't expect this matter to have an echo so quickly, which made them unbelievable.

Ritsu Kagawa said: "For temporary emergency, we don't want much, so we will borrow sixty stones."

When Liu Zhi and Xu Huang heard this, how could they borrow so little, and they were a little anxious in their hearts, how long can they eat sixty stone of grain?

There was silence on the wall of the building, and he said, "Okay then! Angel wait. ā€
