Chen Yongfu walked on the street to the governor's yamen, although it was noon, the whole city seemed to be a dead city. There were no pedestrians on the streets. Because of the lack of food, many people are at home to support this last day, and they have no physical strength to go to the streets.

Chen Yongfu said: The price of grain in the city is already in the market, and a big cake can already be exchanged for two or three yellow flower girls. Because his troops' rations can still be guaranteed, it has also solved many old bachelors in the army. Chen Yongfu has also seen those new daughters-in-law, their backgrounds are really good, they are all beautiful and have a small family, but at this time, these women who were originally noble couldn't care about their shame, and they all wanted to follow Qiu Ba who they once looked down on.

A team of newly recruited Minzhuang ran in front of Chen Yongfu's horse, and when they saw Chen Yongfu, they all stopped kneeling and saluted. Chen Yongfu waved his hand to make them retreat, so these people immediately stood up, and without waiting for Chen Yongfu to pass, they hurriedly went.

"All rushing to reincarnate?" Chen Yongfu's personal captain scolded angrily.

But Chen Yongfu smiled and raised his hand to signal, asking the captain of the pro-soldier to stop caring about those rude actions of the people. Chen Yongfu said: Those people do not have food supply guarantees like their own troops, they all cover the food in the city, that is, they break into people's houses to grab food. If they move slowly, they may have been robbed of their food, and they themselves will have nothing to eat.

And there is no cooking smoke in Kaifeng City, if any family dares to be so blind, break into a team of people to grab all the food, it is still good, maybe the whole family will be killed when the food is guaranteed, so the cooking smoke has become a life talisman.

And in the air, there was a pungent smell of corpses. Chen Yongfu said: It was from outside the city.

In order to alleviate the pressure of food supply in the city, the evacuation of the people in Kaifeng City has been carried out several times. They drove out many of the people who could not pay the levy and told them to go to the peasant army outside the city to get food.

In the beginning. The peasant army besieging the city received several more batches, but later they also reacted, and immediately blocked the people and forced them to return to the city to get food.

So the area from the city wall to the peasant army trench became a miserable area, and the cries and cries of the people were endless, but both sides were hard-hearted, and they would never let the people come near, and they all watched these people starve to death in the miserable area.

And the corpses in the middle of summer are also prone to decay and produce diseases, and the peasant army does not care about the corpses that are thrown into the wilderness. And Kaifeng City organized a group of people to bury it. But as soon as these people left the city, they were immediately abandoned in that miserable area, and they all became miserable souls in the end. As a result, no one on either side cared about the corpses anymore, and the smell of corpses permeated the entire Kaifeng City.

It's a post-apocalyptic sight. The number of war horses in Chen Yongfu's camp was also reduced to 2,000. But he also knew it. The reason why these war horses can still be preserved is to use them to break through one day. But when that time comes. Chen Yongfu's soldiers also didn't know how many people could get on the war horse. Those war horses have long been booked out by the royal palace, the official government and the official gentry in the city.

As soon as I walked to the intersection in front of me, the smell of food wafted over.

Chen Yongfu said: That restaurant is the property of King Zhou, and since the siege of the city, there has never been a shortage of ingredients in this restaurant. Of course, the price of this restaurant is also staggeringly expensive.

At first, there were people outside the restaurant. Those people also found it a pleasure to smell the aroma of the fried fruit. But the shopkeeper of the restaurant was afraid of making trouble, so he sent a post to the government to drive it away. But this drive killed and trampled more than a dozen lives, so that no one dared to approach near the restaurant now.

Right now. Chen Yongfu saw an official in his 50s from a distance, holding two young teeth in his left and right arms and entering the restaurant. Chen Yongfu knew that official, who was from the yamen of the political envoy of Henan, and the official did not hide it at all, and he did not even take off the official robe on his body, looking like he was drunk and dreaming of death, and he was carnival at the end of the world.

A staff member also saw this kind of scene on the side, and he couldn't help but chant poetry in a low voice: "Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road!" ”

"How can you delay the misery in the city? Inspector Yang failed again, and Wu Runing didn't hear the news, how many days can Kaifeng City drag on? Lord Governor! Break through! ”

As soon as Chen Yongfu came to the front hall of the governor's yamen, he heard a commotion coming from the hall. Being besieged for a long time and not hearing about the reinforcements has made the soldiers and civilians in Kaifeng City desperate, so it is inevitable that some officials will think about their own lives.

And the "breakthrough" that this official clamored for was not a gathering of troops to rush out of the city. What he meant was: at night, let the king of Zhou and the officials in the city rush out of the city to the dock of the Yellow River under the cover of the army, and then get on the big ship sent from the other side of the Yellow River, abandon all the soldiers and civilians in the city, and escape alone.

"Hugh mentions! Benfu wants to live and die with the city! Henan Governor Gao Mingheng flatly refused.

The reason why Gao Mingheng gritted his teeth and was reluctant to break through was because he had the responsibility to defend the territory. If Kaifeng, the provincial capital of Henan Province, is really lost, the lower-level officials are nothing, but Gao Mingheng, the main officials of Henan, can't escape the knife at the mouth of the vegetable market. It's nothing more than dying early and dying late, so Gao Mingheng is definitely not willing to lose his reputation.

"Delay it any longer! Drag it out a little longer! Maybe it's not Jitai, reinforcements are already on the way. Someone persuaded him.

"What's coming?" Some officials have already disregarded decency and began to have hysterical attacks, "Could it be that the official seal and official robe of Governor Yang sent by the thieves are fake?" Is there no Yizi in the city to eat? Don't go again! We can't go. ”

Gao Mingheng sat in the first seat and was also embarrassed. He suddenly looked up and saw Chen Yongfu's arrival, so he immediately changed the topic and asked Chen Yongfu: "Did Ling Gongzi go to Runing and there was an echo?" Why has it been more than half a month, and Wu Runing has not yet arrived? ”

Chen Yongfu hurriedly bowed and said, "As soon as there is an echo, I must inform you first." However, last time, General Wu had promised to send troops, and he would never go back on his word. I guess the road is not easy, and I am fighting with the people and thieves. Rest assured, Lord Governor, the last general will also send a messenger again, crying blood for his help! ”

"Is it useful to ask for Wu Runing? There is an official army, and without an official army, maybe in two days the thieves will send his head again. "The hysterical official, today his emotions are no longer controllable. (To be continued......)
