Chapter 946: Burning the Granary

"No matter how big Wang Ningan's power is, it can't reach Jiangxi and Jinghu...... As long as it can be carried there, or the yang is contrary to the yin and the yin is violated, delaying time, Jiangnan will be short of food. Zheng Xia smiled gloomily: "As long as it comes to this point, Wang Ningan will shed his skin even if he doesn't die." ”

Liu Zhi nodded, but he was puzzled again, "In case Wang Ning'an leaves the grain that was transported to the capital, won't there be grain in the south of the Yangtze River?" ”

Zheng Xia looked at him like an idiot, did you lose a game in Suzhou, and scared your brain!

Wang Ningan is the prime minister, and the teacher of the Son of Heaven, the hope of the government and the opposition, his forces are all in the north, can he risk the lack of food in the north to pacify Jiangnan? What's more, Wang Ning'an's forces are all in the north, which is more important, can you still tell which is more important?

"If Wang Ning'an really did that, we would be happy, just those people in the court can bring him down, even the emperor can't forgive his master, do you understand?"

"Got it, got it!"

Liu Zhi's old face was flushed, his eyes rolled, and he suddenly remembered something, "By the way, is it better to have less food right now?" ”

Zheng Xia snorted and nodded reluctantly, do you still need to ask!

"I remember that in the granary in Hangzhou, there were still 2 million stone of grain hoarded!"

Zheng Xia took a breath, "How can there be so many?" ”

"Do you know, in previous years, we had to give priority to the supply of grain to the imperial court, so we gathered a batch of grain from the treasury in the south of the Yangtze River, and if the grain could not be transported, we would use the grain for emergency, and wait until the grain arrived, and then fill the vacancy...... Over the years, so much food has been accumulated! ”

Liu Zhi swallowed and spitted at the mouth, and said tentatively: "Are you going to do anything with these grains?" ”

Zheng Xia frowned, "Start, of course you have to start!" The question is, what can you do not have? ”

"Yes, the solution is ready-made, just let the people of the Cao Gang set fire, that Tong Shan escaped and hid in me, you can't raise him in vain, it's time for him to do something!"

Zheng Xia thought about it and felt that the method was not bad, "Yes, not only the grain storage in Hangzhou, but also the Chang Liquidation in other places, don't let go of the Yicang, I want to see if he Wang Ning'an is so capable, he can still conjure up food!" ”

Liu Zhi nodded, and wanted to go down to deploy, but Zheng Xia stopped him again, "Remember, you must move quickly, the work must be clean, and besides, you can't reveal it to Liu Xin!" ”

"Huh? Hiding it from Liu Xianggong? ”

Zheng Xia snorted, "It's true that he is your clan uncle, but when people are old and old, they can't help but be scared, don't surprise the elders!" ”

Liu Zhi took a breath, he was not an idiot, so he naturally understood what Zheng Xia meant.

"Alright, I'll be careful."

……

The next day, the news that Wang Ning'an officially went south to Hangzhou came, and there was no doubt that the decisive battle between the king of Xiliang and the southeast family had begun.

In the past two or three months, Wang Ningan has slaughtered and slashed, reused cool officials, implemented the division of fields, and was stunned to split a chasm in the southeast!

At this time, even if the villages and towns are closed, they all know that the court has come to a prince, to give the big guy the field, and there are many storytellers, walking in the field, singing the deeds of the king of Xiliang to everyone, in addition to Youzhou divided the field, Jingdong Road also divided the field, as well as the northwest, the people have lived a stable life, eat and drink without worry, now there is only the southeast, but you can't lag behind!

With the propaganda of these people, Wang Ning'an's image among the people suddenly became taller, and after he went south, the people along the way rushed to see the majesty.

There are also common people who jointly signed a blood letter, imploring the imperial court to implement the division of land and divide their land there.

It is both gratifying and worrying for the people to be like this...... The general trend has been achieved, but the more this is the case, the more the family will have to die and struggle, desperate, what a group of crazy people will do, I can't imagine it.

"Lao Chen, how much grain is there in Hangzhou right now?"

Chen Shunzhi immediately said: "Lord Wang, there is a lot of grain in Hangzhou, this is the seaport, and it is the end point of the canal, the grain from the southeast, and even the grain from Jiaozhi, will be transported here, temporarily stored, conservatively estimated, there are also 5 million stones, deducting the rations of the people, 3 million stones can be transferred!" ”

After listening to this, Wang Ningan became more vigilant.

"Then where all this food is, I need to know now."

"I'm going to get the map."

Wang Ning'an was not idle on the way south...... On the other side, he was beaten by a group of ordinary people under the city of Suzhou and lost his armor and was embarrassed.

Tong Shan, the head of the Cao Gang, finally woke up, he can call the wind and rain in the Cao Gang, but when he really goes to the battlefield, he is a waste! I can't toss the wind and waves at all, don't have any sweet dreams, it's true to run for your life quickly!

Wang Ningan will go south sooner or later, and it is not safe in Hangzhou, he thought of going to sea, going overseas, occupying an island casually, and being an overseas emperor is not bad!

He gathered his brothers and wanted to take advantage of the chaos to leave.

"Brother Tong, it's not so easy to leave, Wang Ningan has already gone south." Liu Zhi smiled and said: "Now you only have two ways, do you want to run out casually, and if you are caught by Wang Ningan's people, or by the common people, take your head to ask for credit...... There is another way, which is to do one thing for me, and then I will arrange someone to send you to sea! ”

Tong Shan's eyes widened with hatred.

"Why does Lao Tzu believe you? If it weren't for you, would Lao Tzu have fallen to where he is today? ”

Liu Zhi is like a grandson in Zheng Xia, but in front of Tong Shan, he is the uncle!

"Da Longtou, you touch your conscience and speak, we gave you food, gave you money, and gave you weapons...... It's you who is to blame for your own lack of anger? In a word, whether you do it or not, life and death are in a thought! ”

"I, I'm ......" Tong Shan snorted for a long time, and said angrily: "If you let Lao Tzu do things, you have to tell Lao Tzu, what are you going to do?" ”

"It's easy, just burn down the granary at the dock for me!"

"What?"

Tong Shan jumped up, he waved his two arms, and he didn't know where to put it!

"Lord Liu, if I'm not mistaken, it's 2 million stone grain, it's life-saving food for countless people, how can it be burned, it's a sin that creates heaven, and it will be punished!"

Liu Zhi sneered disdainfully, "Big dragon head, what kind of thing are you?" Don't worry, God is so busy, he doesn't have time to hack you! Wang Ningan is about to go south, at most three days, he will arrive, you go and burn the granary today, tomorrow I will arrange someone to send you to the sea and live a free life, no one can control you in the future! ”

Tong Shan slowly squatted down, very entangled and painful, he was already a sin that could not be punished, did he have to add another sin?

"Okay, you are not an official of the imperial court, don't be compassionate here, don't do it, you, and your brothers, will not survive!"

"Alas!"

Tong Shan stomped his feet, glared at Liu Zhi angrily, and scolded: "I really fucking regret it, why did I get involved with you!" ”

……

Helpless, Tong Shan still agreed to Liu Zhi's request, he still has more than 100 remnants of the defeated generals, and there are also many people in the Cao Gang in Hangzhou, he secretly recruited and concentrated more than 500 people.

Taking advantage of the night, I touched the granary, the black and oppressive grain hoard, I can't see the edge at a glance, usually there are 3,000 people here, stationed for a long time, but today, it is very quiet, only a few sentinels are left, still patrolling, and the husband lazily beats the bong, reminding everyone, be careful of the candles.

Tong Shan took a deep breath and raised the Ghost Head Knife violently.

"Rush!"

At the sound of the order, the Cao Gang rushed to the granary, they opened their teeth and claws, screamed, and several sentries were caught off guard, and they were all cut down.

Tong Shan took the lead and ran inside, followed by the people behind, who were holding torches and carrying fish oil, and were ready to set fire...... At this time, a few soldiers were so frightened that they ran away for a while, but when they looked back, they were all stupid.

These people are going to burn food!

One of the young soldiers' eyes was red, every year the grain is transported away, the grain stored in this warehouse is the lifeblood of millions of people in Hangzhou, if there is a problem with the food outside, it will all point to the grain here!

You can grab some points, forget it, you are actually mad and want to come to burn food, are you not afraid of God's curse!

"I'm fighting with you!"

The young soldier turned around and rushed over, he raised his waist knife and ran wildly, Tong Shan's men were stunned, and two people were cut off, and the young soldier continued to cut, but the knife was unfortunately broken, and several people from the Cao Gang raised their spears and penetrated his chest!

"Retribution, God will repay you!"

The young soldier had a mouth full of blood and shouted wildly. The other soldiers who fled also turned around and came back, there were less than 50 of them, but none of them flinched, and all of them were killed!

Tong Shan's arm was also slashed, blood flowed profusely, and his facial features were hideous.

"Set fire!"

The words squeezed out between his teeth, and his men immediately raised their torches and threw them at the granary, the flames flying and the smoke billowing out...... Tong Shan looked down at the corpse on the ground, the young soldier was still lying on the ground, his eyes were staring, as if there were flames spewing out!

"I'm just a brute!"

Tong Shan slapped himself twice, his face was hot, he finally felt a little more comfortable, turned his head, beckoned all his subordinates, and prepared to escape.

And at this moment, there was a sudden crackling sound, and before Tong Shan could understand what was going on, the shrimp soldiers and crab generals under his command fell down in pieces.

"Shoot!"

With a loud roar, the fire guns were lined up one after another, and the people of the Cao Gang fell quickly, faster than they cut wheat!

"The prince has arrived!"

"King Xiliang has arrived!"

"Surrender quickly, put down your weapons, and wait for your life!"

……

The prince is here!

At this moment, Tong Shan was not afraid, but a little relieved and a little excited...... Liu Zhi, Liu Zhi, aren't you afraid of King Xiliang? He is coming, and your end is coming!

Tong Shan's hand let go, and he threw the ghost head knife on the ground, and he lay on the ground, waiting for the judgment of fate!

Wang Ningan didn't have the heart to deal with them, the most important thing was the fire in front of him!

"Pass on the king's order, all the officials in Hangzhou immediately organize the people to put out the fire, whoever dares to slack off, there will be no forgiveness!" After speaking, Wang Ningan threw the python robe aside, lifted two buckets, and joined the ranks of firefighting with the soldiers......
