Five, six, seven, watching the sea and listening to the waves of the Double Dragon Club (3)
The north wind blew so that people's ears seemed to be gone, Li Yan was angry, trying to warm his hands, but the air that came out of it was with a coldness.
The soldiers behind him have complained for an unknown number of times, and finally won the capital, not letting everyone live happily in that fancy world, and even taking them day and night, even Li Yan and Li Gongzi, who are very prestigious in the righteous army, can't toss people like this.
"Li Gongzi, what should I do?" The red lady also felt this bad atmosphere, if it continued like this, she didn't wait to catch up with the tiger guard, but she was afraid that these rebels would mutiny first.
Although many of them were trained by Li Yan, once the military discipline collapsed, it was beyond Li Yan's control. Li Yan sighed, summoned the generals, and said lightly: "Tianjin Wei is an important town in the north, with a large population and flourishing merchants, although the capital is good, but if we have more than 100,000 people going in, what else can we get, it is better for us 10,000 people to share the benefits of Tianjin Wei alone - you pass the word, when you go to Tianjin Wei, in addition to not being allowed to kill, let everyone have a head!" ”
"Huh!"
Suddenly, the army roared with joy, but the red lady's eyes widened and she looked at Li Yan in surprise.
"The matter belongs to the right, the red lady, if it is really the prince of Zhu Ming who escapes, I don't know how much trouble there is...... Now the south has not yet gotten the news, if the Jinling side knows that the king has seized the country, the first thing they will do is infighting, and they will not give in to each other to launch a son of heaven, through their infighting, our army can take advantage of the situation, in one fell swoop, the north and the south are unified. The power of the whole country, even Yu Guozhen can only shrink in Guangdong, not daring to peek north. After that, the world was peaceful, and the people suffered less. On the contrary, if a prince of Chongzhen escaped to Jiangnan and was controlled by Yu Guozhen, it would be Zhu Mingzi as a matter of course. Although King Chuang is a large number of generals, it is impossible to hastily eliminate Yu Guozhen, who has a great deal of territory, and the war will continue, and the people will suffer more. ”
"Long pain is better than short pain, crying all the way is like crying as a family. Red lady, think about it. If the king wins the world. The people will always enjoy peace, and today's things are just a necessary price - at that time, I will also resign from my official position and come to Tianjin Wei to pave the way for the people here to build bridges and make up for my mistakes today! ”
Li Yan's words made the red lady look at him in a daze, and then turned the horse and left.
"Red lady. Red Lady! ”
"You have changed, you are not Li Gongzi who is dedicated to the people. You are General Li who is only dedicated to his own work. The voice of the red lady came from afar, with a crying tone. Li Yan stretched out his hand as if he wanted to hold something, but when he heard this cry, his hand hung down weakly.
The red lady is a heroine, since the two met, Li Yan has never seen her weak, but now, she not only shows her weak side, but even cries.
Maybe it would be better for her to think about it calmly and think about it all by herself......
Li Yan could only think so, and he set his eyes on the shadow of Tianjin Wei in the distance - if it weren't for Yu Guozhen's tiger guard suddenly appearing in Gyeonggi, where would there be so many things, even if his subordinates looted Tianjin Wei, Yu Guozhen would have to bear half of the responsibility!
He himself knows that this is just self-deception, but people are like this, they always like to push the responsibility on others, and those who are willing to take credit are rare!
Less than ten miles away, he arrived in a blink of an eye, but what shocked Li Yan was that what he saw in Tianjin Wei was the hungry people first.
The boundless hungry people, these are all the victims who were displaced in the north wind because they broke into the north embankment of the Yellow River and were hungry and cold!
This scene is iron-hearted, and he can't help but be moved, not to mention that Li Yan has the intention of saving the country and helping the people after all. Even those who were ready to rob the army in Tianjin Weili lost most of their interest at this time.
Robbing these victims who are not clothed or fed?
"Help, help!"
"For those who stutter, just one bite, save my baby!"
"Master Jun, you are willing to eat and be a cow and a horse to repay you!"
Although they didn't dare to gather around, the surrounding victims still shouted from afar, hoping that someone would show kindness. Li Yan led the cavalry first, and when he saw this scene, he suddenly felt that he had no strength.
All this was caused by their invasion of the army, and he came to hang the people and kill them, not to harm the people.
At this moment, he heard someone shouting: "I want to see Li Yan, I want to see Li Yan!" ”
"Who is it?" Li Yan looked over there, but saw a thin man rushing over, holding a piece of paper in his hand and waving it, and several intruders grabbed him and were punching and kicking.
"I'm Li Yan, what's the matter with this brother?" Li Yan asked the man to be released, and asked slowly.
"Someone gave me food, let me send you a letter, he said that you love the people the most in the army, and you will not embarrass me!" The man cried out, "Take the letter, and he said, 'If you take it, you will give me something to eat.'" ”
Li Yan was slightly stunned, and suddenly understood in his heart that this letter must have been given by Huwei, but he didn't know who left it, Tian Boguang or Qi Niu?
"What, it's Yu Guozhen!"
Getting the paper in his hand, Li Yan first looked at the payment, and then saw a name that surprised him and was ecstatic at the same time.
Yu Guozhen appeared here at this time, there must not be many people around him, if he still stayed in Tianjin Wei, he would have to leave him even if he killed half of the people!
But he calmed down immediately, Yu Guozhen was scheming deeper, and he was even better than him, how could he still stay here and wait for him to capture?
The content of the letter is very simple, there are tens of thousands of victims here, and the army calls itself a righteous teacher, so it should be treated kindly, and the relief will be handed over to Li Yan to manage, if Li Yan can't solve it, then you can organize these disaster victims to go south and go to the east of Shandong.
Li Yan grabbed the paper with green tendons on his hands, and gritted his teeth: "Tens of thousands of disaster victims threw it to us, he has a good calculation......
"Li Yan, who is Li Yan, someone asked me to deliver the letter!"
Before his words fell, suddenly someone shouted again, and Li Yan looked again, still a disaster victim. He also waved a letter in his hand. Li Yan is both angry and funny in his heart, what trick is Yu Guozhen playing?
But after reading the first two lines of the second letter, Li Yan felt that the blood in his chest was surging, making him almost want to vomit blood.
The letter stated his reaction accurately, and lightly ridiculed the sentence "spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain", and then mentioned that he put down tens of thousands of catties of rice at the port. It can be used for a few days for the needs of the victims, so that Li Yan can deal with it well.
Li Yan resisted the urge to vomit blood, so he ran towards the port.
At this time, the gate of the Tianjin Acropolis was opened, and the officials guarding it knelt in front of the city gate, thinking that they had received the news and thought that the king had come to receive the city. Li Yan ignored them and went straight into the city. Later, he remembered that he didn't know where the dock was, so he summoned an official. The officer shook his head and tail. showed him the way, and volunteered to lead him. His appearance made Li Yan a little unbearable when he saw it, and deliberately asked: "Your Excellency Fang Cai said that he was born as a person, as far as I know, the world is divided into countless parties, what is the Donglin Party, the Chu Party, and the Zhejiang Party. I don't know what kind of party your excellency belongs to? ”
"Xiaguan is...... Xiaguan is the party leading the way. The official smiled and said, "The lower official is willing to lead the way for the new dynasty, what is the difference?" ”
"Leading the way...... Ha ha. You can talk. Although he laughed at the official's shamelessness in his heart, Li Yan had to admit it. His shamelessness is comforting. When the new dynasty reformed the old, it was in need of such a leading party, and if everyone was loyal to the old dynasty, wouldn't they have to spend a lot of energy!
There is this leading party gag, Li Yan's mood is much better along the way, although Tianjin Wei is prosperous at this time, but now in this situation, everyone is closed, how can anyone do business, so the market is depressed and pedestrians are scarce, and some are just some beggars, just like those in front of the city gate.
Li Yan rushed to the dock and saw that a ship happened to sail away, but there were big cloth bags piled up on the dock, Li Yan was halfway through, and suddenly, for some reason, he was a little timid and stopped.
"Yu Guozhen is used to blowing people up with explosives, so it's better for the general to be cautious and let this leading party go over and see what ambush there is." A general next to him misunderstood what he meant, and leaned into his ear and said.
Of course, Li Yan would not be reluctant to lead the way, so he asked the official to come forward to take a look, and after a while, the official came back with a piece of paper with a strange face: "General Li, is it...... It's rice, it's all rice! ”
"Tens of thousands of catties of rice are really left here?" Li Yan couldn't help but be surprised.
At this moment, he heard the shouts outside the city, Li Yan looked back, and saw that the victims who had been stopped outside the Tianjin Acropolis were all rushing in at this moment, and nothing could stop them!
"There's food to eat, there's food to eat!"
There are shouts everywhere, these hungry people, not to mention full food, even rice grains I don't know how long I haven't seen them. They were so powerful that they couldn't even suppress the Tianjin guards, so they came towards the dock.
The subordinates around Li Yan couldn't help but change color one by one.
They are all thieves, so they naturally know what the result will be if the hungry people are coerced, if these tens of thousands of people all rush over, don't say that they are just a few thousand horsemen in the forward, even if Li Yan's 10,000 people team arrives, I am afraid that they will not be able to stop it!
Because for these hungry people, to be killed is also death, and to starve to death is also death. If they weren't given hope, their physical strength would be exhausted in the torment of hunger, and they wouldn't be able to make any waves, but now, it is clear that someone has given them a glimmer of life, and in order to seize this glimmer of life, they can burst out with almost crazy strength!
"Nanhai Bo left rice for us, right at the dock! Nanhai Bo said, and ordered General Li, who broke into the army, to preside over the porridge! ”
Someone in the crowd shouted, and this voice came into Li Yan's ears, and he still didn't understand what was going on!
It is clear that among these people is the person left by Yu Guozhen, who took the opportunity of Tianjin Wei Kaicheng to welcome him, and brought the victims into the city, where can a few errands in the city stop them, and they will not make every effort to stop them, let them come to the dock!
When they got here, they saw the cloth bags piled up on the dock, and they didn't know what was in them, so unless he really started the massacre, he would have to obediently distribute porridge for Yu Guozhen!
Can he do such a thing?
The sweet and stuffy feeling in his chest made Li Yan extremely uncomfortable, and he suddenly felt that he prided himself on being witty, but in fact, in the eyes of really witty people, he was just a chess piece on the chessboard. (To be continued)
