Just half an hour after Li Yuntian stayed in the inn in the town, there was a sudden commotion at the entrance of the town, and the Lianzhou prefect and the commander of Lianzhou Wei led all the officials in the city to be touched, and they came to meet Li Yuntian in a hurry.

After Li Yuntian led the Xiaowu army to leave from outside the city, the Lianzhou prefect and the commander of Lianzhou Wei immediately sent people to follow, and found that Li Yuntian and his party entered the town, and then the two knew the identities of Li Yuntian and others, and they were immediately frightened and bloodless, and hurriedly led the officials in the city to see Li Yuntian.

Especially those soldiers defending the city who had shot arrows at Li Yuntian were even more unlucky, and were tied up by the commander of Lian Zhouwei and handed over to Li Yuntian.

At this moment, the prefect of Lianzhou and the commander of Lianzhou Wei secretly rejoiced, fortunately, those soldiers did not shoot arrows early in the panic, and the sparse archery skills failed to shoot Li Yuntian, otherwise the two would not be able to eat and walk around.

Li Yuntian had long known that the Lianzhou prefect and the Lianzhou Wei Command Envoy would come to the town to see him, so he waited in the guest room, and as soon as the Lianzhou Governor and Lianzhou Wei Commander entered the door, they knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty to Li Yuntian.

Li Yuntian didn't take tonight's episode to heart, after all, this is an extraordinary period, and it is not inappropriate for the Lianzhou prefect and the commander of Lianzhou Wei to be careful, if the two of them rashly open the city gate at night, maybe Li Yuntian will be harsh on them.

As for the dozen or so unlucky people who shot arrows at Li Yuntian, Li Yuntian waved his hand and asked Lian Zhouwei to let them go, from the duty of those unlucky people, they didn't do anything wrong, but their psychological and archery skills were too bad.

If you change to a warrior army, at least let the other party report your identity first, and then let the enemy within range before shooting arrows, instead of shooting arrows indiscriminately, and as a result, you don't even reach the corner of the enemy's clothes.

The prefect of Lianzhou and the commander of Lianzhou wanted to invite Li Yuntian to spend the night in the city, but Li Yuntian was in a hurry to go to Xuanhua Mansion and didn't want to toss anymore, so he stayed at the inn for one night.

Since Li Yuntian stayed in the inn, the prefect of Lianzhou and the commander of Lianzhou Wei naturally had to stay here, and the two had already blocked Li Yuntian from Lianzhou City, how could they dare to just leave? Although Li Yuntian could not cut them down first and then play, nor could he remove the two of them from their posts, it was still a matter of effort to investigate and prosecute them with the authority of the governor.

The next morning, Li Yuntian wanted to bypass Lianzhou City and continue his journey, but he could not bear the repeated pleas of the Lianzhou prefect and the Lianzhou Wei commander, as long as he went into the city for luncheon, he knew that if he did not go, he was afraid that the Lianzhou prefect and the Lianzhou Wei commander would not be able to sleep at night.

However, when Li Yuntian left the inn, the rank on his shoulders had become captain, the embroidered spring knife hanging from his waist had also become a silver handle and silver sheath, and a fake beard was attached to his mouth.

A lieutenant who was similar in shape and appearance to Li Yuntian was replaced with his rank of major general, and the royal sword with a golden handle and golden sheath hung from his waist.

The reason why Li Yuntian did this was naturally to disguise his identity, firstly, for safety, after all, this place was close to Jiaozhi, and it was inevitable that he would be mixed into the rebels, and secondly, he had something to do, and if it was seen by others, things would be bad.

From leaving the town to entering the city, along the way, Li Yuntian and Xiaowujun became the objects of onlookers along the way, and the people crowded on the side of the road with great interest, pointing at them and talking in a chattering voice.

Due to the large number of ethnic minorities in Guangxi, Lianzhou Mansion is a place where ethnic minorities gather, coupled with the noisy voice, even Li Yuntian, who has learned the Guangxi dialect for more than two years in advance, does not know what the people wearing colorful national costumes are saying, but it can be seen that they seem to be happy.

Li Yuntian's arrival undoubtedly boosted the morale of the people of Lianzhou City, and made the public order that had been showing a deteriorating trend quickly improve.

After all, Li Yuntian is not only the Dingnan general of Emperor Xuande's imperial seal, but also the dignified Zhenwu Bo of Daming, plus the imperial court has vigorously promoted the great exploits of the Xiaowu Army in quelling the rebellion of the Han King since the beginning of the year, so Li Yuntian and the Xiaowu Army are very deterrent in the minds of the people.

Due to the mountainous nature of the western part of Guangxi and the winding and rugged mountain roads, it was not until three days later that Li Yuncai came to Taiping City, the seat of the Taiping Mansion.

In ancient times, communication was inconvenient, and Li Yuntian was galloping along the way, so when he arrived in Taiping City, the officials in Taiping City did not know about his arrival.

Therefore, it was not until Li Yuntian led all the soldiers of the Xiaowu Army to the gate of the Taipingwei Command Envoy Si Yamen that the Taiping Prefecture Governor and the Taipingwei Commander knew that he had rushed to Taiping City, and hurriedly notified their respective officials to go to the Taipingwei Command Envoy Si Yamen to meet Li Yuntian.

Because it is adjacent to the Xuanhua Mansion in Jiaozhi, there are many people in Taiping City who have fled from Xuanhua Mansion to take refuge, and when they learned that the general Dingnan appointed by Emperor Xuande appeared here, they immediately became excited, and privately talked about Li Yuntian's ability to quell the rebellion in Jiaozhi this time, so that they could return to their homeland.

In the past year or so, the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce has already transported enough grain from Huguang to Taiping to eat enough grain for 200,000 people to eat for a year, and Li Yuntian needs the prefect of Taiping Prefecture and Taipingwei to organize manpower to transport the grain to Xuanhua City in order to solve the increasingly tense food crisis in Xuanhua City.

After the rebellion of the Jiaozhi rebels, many people in the rebel-held areas of southern Jiaozhi were afraid of being harmed by the rebels, so they fled with their families to the northern areas of the Ming army-controlled areas.

With the defeat of Liu Sheng, some of the people in the central part of Cochin also began to flee to the north.

Among these refugees, there were not only the Ming people who had originally migrated to Jiaozhi from the two capitals and thirteen provinces, but also the local people in Jiaozhi.

Because Li Qingzheng governed Xuanhua Mansion in an orderly manner, the people who fled came to Xuanhua Mansion one after another, which put Xuanhua Mansion under tremendous pressure.

Because there are so many refugees entering Xuanhua Province that it has affected the lives of local residents, some officials asked Li Qingzheng to drive some of the refugees to the nearby state capital, but Li Qingzheng denied it, how could he not save those refugees.

In fact, there is a large granary in Xuanhua City, but that granary is the war preparation grain prepared by the imperial court, and there are two ways to move the grain in the granary to relieve the refugees, one is to get the permission of Emperor Xuande, and the other is to get the permission of Emperor Xuande, otherwise it is a big crime.

The so-called Qincha sent by Emperor Xuande refers to officials sent by Emperor Xuande with sufficient authority, such as governors or general soldiers, and other people have no right to do so even if they are patrolling the imperial history.

Li Yuntian naturally knew this, and he had decided to use the granary in Xuanhua City to relieve the people of Jiaozhi who had fled to Xuanhua Mansion, but because the number of refugees was too large, I was afraid that the granary could not meet the long-term requirements of the refugees, so he had to organize people to transport grain from Taiping Mansion to Xuanhua Mansion.

As the saying goes, the people take food as the sky, as long as those refugees can fill their stomachs, then the order of Xuanhua Mansion will be stable.

The person in charge of the food affairs of the Taiping Mansion of the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce is named Jia Yunchuan, a native of Guilin, Guangxi, and lives in Taiping City.

Jia Yunchuan joined the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce three years ago, and he can be regarded as an old man of the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce, specifically responsible for expanding the market of the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce in Guangxi, and began to work on the transportation of grain to Taiping Mansion two years ago.

In Jia Yunchuan's view, transporting grain to a remote place like Taiping Mansion and selling it is a completely cost-losing business, and the local residents' demand for grain is limited, and I am afraid that so much grain will not be sold out in five or six years, and then it will become mildew and wasted in vain.

However, this grain transportation was a business jointly initiated by Chen Ningning and Zheng Wanrou, and even if he was confused, he could only follow the order.

Moreover, when Jia Yunchuan was transporting grain in Wang Taiping's Mansion, he received an instruction that made him very puzzled, Chen Ningning and Zheng Wanting had someone send him half of the copper plate, telling him that he was not allowed to sell the grain that was transported to the Taiping Mansion until he saw the other half of the copper plate, and the price of selling grain was determined by the person who held the other half of the copper plate.

For Chen Ningning and Zheng Wanrou's strange instructions, Jia Yunchuan was very puzzled.

However, Chen Ningning and the whole night were strange women in the business world, and he naturally couldn't guess what the two of them had planned, so he simply didn't guess and carried out the instructions with peace of mind.

As the war situation in Jiaozhi became worse and worse, not only did the demand for food in Jiaozhi gradually increase, but also drove the consumption of grain in Taiping Province, making the price of grain increase steadily.

Especially after the defeat of Liu Sheng, the price of grain in Taiping Province has more than doubled, and the supply of grain in the local grain stores exceeds demand: due to the impact of panic, the people of Taiping Province began to buy grain reserves to avoid starvation at that time.

Jia Yunchuan finally understood at this time, it turned out that Chen Ningning and Zheng Wanrou had long expected the defeat of Jiaozhi, and then made arrangements for a rainy day, and then made a lot of money in the war.

It was too late for the grain merchants in Taiping Mansion to buy grain from other places, so they wanted to buy grain from Jia Yunchuan at a high price, not only in Taiping Mansion, but also in Xuanhua Mansion if it was transported to Xuanhua Mansion.

However, because he did not see the other half of the copper plate, Jia Yunchuan could not sell the grain, so he could only refuse the grain merchants, and he had already written to Zheng Wanrou in Guilin to explain the matter, hoping that Zheng Wanrou would allow him to sell grain.

At this moment, Jia Yunchuan would never have thought that this batch of grain in Taiping Mansion was prepared by Li Yuntian in order to quell the rebellion in Jiaozhi.

As long as the people of Xuanhua Mansion see that there is enough food, then it is easy to stabilize the situation in Xuanhua Mansion, and it can save him a lot of tongues.

It is worth mentioning that after Liu Sheng's defeat, the grain and grass of the counterinsurgency army were snatched up by the rebels, and those rebels were cheapened in vain.

And without food and grass, the counterinsurgency army led by Li Yuntian will not be able to move an inch in Jiaozhi, which is also an important reason why the outside world did not expect him to come to Jiaozhi so quickly, but no one could have imagined that he had already prepared.!^!
