This matter came and went, and after half a month, there was a result, and the statistical data was brought to Ling Feng, and Ling Feng immediately frowned when he saw it. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

He was not very satisfied with this result, only more than 40,000 loads.

In a place as wide as Kaiyuan and the three northern counties, thousands of miles and more than 200 counties, the result in half a month is only 40,000 quintals of grain, and the average county is only how much, and at this rate, it is obviously impossible to gather 700,000 in a short period of time.

In the study, Ling Feng looked at Huang Linggong and asked, "Have those big families handed over?" ”

Huang Ling said fairly: "I handed it over, but the number is not too much, most of them are hundreds of dans, or dozens of dans, and none of them are thousands of dans, and the effect is not very good; On the contrary, it is the poor, the poorer, the more active, such as the poor people in the suburbs of Kaiyuan, who only settled down last year, but now they have all taken all their surplus grain to the grain station. ”

Ling Feng said: "It's still good for the people, know gratitude, those big families only have interests in their eyes.... ”

"I finally know why Pang Yi and King Yu don't treat the family as people, these are all people who only go in and can't eat people and don't spit out bones, and they deserve to be suppressed."

Saying this, Ling Feng realized this time that the Huang Ling Gong standing in front of him was also a member of the family, and Ling Feng changed his words: "Of course, except for you, you are dedicated to the people, I will definitely believe you." ”

"Huh... I don't know Huang Ling... How much did you pay? ”

Ling Feng asked with a smile.

Huang Linggong arched his hand and said: "My lord, the last time the refugees came, the minister had already taken out all the surplus food at home, but now I really can't take it out, I have sent someone to buy it elsewhere, I hope it can help." ”

Speaking of buying grain, Ling Feng suddenly remembered that there was one person, and that was the owner of Fulai Restaurant, Li Fulai!

Li Fulai has always helped the government buy grain and war horses, and he has never stopped, either going to southern Xinjiang or western Xinjiang, and every year he will bring thousands or tens of thousands of quintals of grain back to Kaiyuan, and over the course of a year, he has increased a lot of income for Kaiyuan.

Ling Feng asked, "What about Li Fulai, does he have any news?" ”

Huang Ling said: "He just came back once last month, and I heard that the lord has formed an alliance with Yang Xiong, so he went to the western frontier this time, but he didn't bring back much every time, it was less than 10,000 loads, or hundreds of war horses, which was really dispensable for now." ”

"Yes, tens of thousands, it really can't solve the problem."

Ling Feng sighed, then put Li Fulai's matter aside, and his attention returned to borrowing food from the people.

Now if you want to save those refugees, you have to make up your mind with other rich people, and the common people still can't get food, even if they have the heart, they are powerless.

Ling Feng said: "It seems that we have to find a way to let those big families obediently hand over the grain." ”

"Huang Linggong, think about it, what are the big families most afraid of?"

"What are you most afraid of?"

Huang Linggong frowned.

"The people of the big family, to put it bluntly, are all businessmen, in their eyes, of course, they put the interests of their own family first, no matter what they do, it is for profit, or they are self-preservation."

"Generally like a businessman, of course he hopes that the world is peaceful, only the world is peaceful and they can make money, or they will lose all their money, just like the families of Huai County and Surabaya County, who were ransacked by Pang Yi."

Ling Feng said: "Yes, they don't want to think about it, who gave them peace, now that I have difficulties, why don't they know to be grateful?" Other counties have to collect a lot of taxes, and I even exempt them from paying taxes. ”

"Forget it, if you don't talk about this, it's useless to complain, hurry up and find a way to let them hand over all the food."

Huang Ling said fairly: "Lord, this matter should be handed over to Lord Zhang Guozhong, and he will definitely be able to handle it." ”

Ling Feng was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly it dawned on him, Zhang Guozhong turned out to be the largest family in Chu County, and then became the largest family in the three northern counties, and now the tide is even higher, since Zhang Wan'er became the princess, everyone has given him three points of thin noodles, between Kaiyuan and Northern Xinjiang, I am afraid that it will also belong to his family face.

Ling Feng nodded: "Well, this matter should be handed over to him, you go and tell him, no matter what method you use, as long as you collect the grain, when he collects it, I will promote him to... He was promoted to a member of the Interior Division, a position below you. ”

"Yes."

Huang Linggong arched his hand and turned to leave.

East Xinjiang, water village.

King Xiaojin personally sat here, and all the troops in southern Xinjiang have been transferred here, leaving only 20,000 weak brigades in southern Xinjiang, it doesn't matter if he can hold southern Xinjiang or not, the most important thing now is to hold eastern Xinjiang!

As for Southern Xinjiang, his attitude doesn't matter anyway, everything depends on King Yu, if King Yu defeats Jiang Yiyuan, then he Liu 20,000 people are there, and he can still hold the territory, if he can't fight, then there is no way, defeat is defeated, as long as Dongjiang has its own territory, it will be able to develop slowly in the future.

Shuizhai barracks, inside the big tent of the Chinese army.

The little golden king gathered all the high-level generals under his command to discuss major matters in the big tent of the Chinese army.

Xiao Jin Wang was fat and a typical little fat man, so he came to the seat and sat down, pressed his hand, and motioned to the generals in the tent to sit down.

On an errand under the command of King Xiaojin, he is actually very relaxed, he is not as strict as other princes, and he is also very approachable, take it as an example, although the situation is grim, although the war is imminent, but when discussing things, let the generals under his command sit in their seats and talk slowly.

Don't think that this will lose the majesty of his little golden king, on the contrary, the generals are 100% loyal to him, and the five bodies that were subdued are thrown to the ground, there is a saying, you respect me a foot, I respect you a zhang, the little golden king is as heavy as a mountain, and the generals are naturally repaid with death.

After everyone sat down, the little golden king said: "I won't say much about the current situation, a thousand moments, a life-and-death duel, if you are not careful, you will die without a place to be buried." ”

"Thirty miles in front of our water village, there are 100,000 water troops of the imperial court, and it is expected that they will attack early tomorrow morning, so tonight, we must be prepared, we must defend the water village, this is our barrier, and we cannot afford to lose."

"In fact, there is only one battle in this battle, that is, this battle, if we win this battle, we can hold the territory, if we lose, the imperial army will continue to go ashore, and when we get to the shore, we want to win again, but it will be difficult."

What Xiao Jin Wang said, which is also something that all generals know, is fighting with the imperial army, only water battles, if it is a field battle, then Wan Wan is not an opponent, the imperial forest army and the Praetorian Guard of the imperial court, it is not a joke, let alone 120,000, even if it is 12,000, it is also very powerful, and the general field army is definitely not an opponent.

On the left hand side of the Little Golden King, a general asked, "Lord, I don't know what King Lan said there?" Would he like to help? (To be continued.) )
