"Cheng Qing, take care of yourself!"

Old man He admonished outside, knowing that he and his granddaughter were also a drag if they stayed, and if they left as soon as possible, Cheng Qing could concentrate on leading people to resist the enemy.

Xiao Pan didn't want to go, Cheng Qing felt that the thief was close at hand, and he couldn't use Xiao Pan's special ability, so he asked He Wan to take Xiao Pan away.

"It's a man's business to kill the enemy, so why use your little girl to help."

Cheng Qing pushed Xiao Pan into the carriage, and Xiao Pan struggled.

"Young Master!"

He Wan pressed Xiaopan's shoulder, "Silly girl, obedient!" Come with us into the city, don't add a burden to Cheng Qing. ”

Xiaopan was in a hurry.

Killing the enemy is a man's business, but the 'young master' is not a man......

No matter how Xiaopan struggled, he was forcibly taken away.

The sound of horses' hooves and fighting drew nearer, and the men of the grain caravan were so anxious that they hurried desperately with their whips to their livestock.

The people are afraid that the livestock will not go fast, and they are even more afraid that the livestock will be frightened and run around, they are afraid of being killed by the scarf thief, and the livestock can only be bought after saving and saving, and there can be no mistakes!

Looking at the city wall in front of me, when I really hurried, I felt that I couldn't walk for a long time.

There were soldiers walking around on the city wall, watching more than 2,000 people approaching with cattle and carrying things, and they also saw the enemy in the distance.

The dust is all over the sky, and it is not small to look at.

The soldiers guarding the city were also anxious, and shouted in the air to inquire about their identities, and He Wan asked people to shout back, saying that they had brought the disaster relief food that Cheng Zhuangyuan was responsible for escorting with six yuan and the first, and they had to enter the city now.

The words Cheng Zhuangyuan and disaster relief food together are still relatively weighty.

The guards did not dare to close the city gate immediately, and shouted for He Wan and the others to enter the city quickly.

Under the city walls, one or two thousand homeless people lingered, and most of them had no strength to stand up, lying half-dead on the ground.

These displaced people fled from the Huainan territory, and they can be found in every prefecture and county.

Some prefectures and counties will accept them, while others will not.

Like now, the soldiers defending the city will let the grain team into the city, but they will not let these displaced people into the city - this is only a county seat, and the county magistrate is not able to accommodate so many displaced people, and has long been strictly ordered that the soldiers guarding the city are not allowed to let in a displaced person at will.

The soldiers guarding the city gate did not know how to workaround, they only knew that the county magistrate was the largest, and without the order of the county magistrate, they only dared to let the grain team into the city.

As for how He Wan and the others want to bypass the displaced people, it is not in the consideration of the guards guarding the city, and He Wan and the others have to figure out their own way.

There are only so many soldiers in a county town, and the city walls of the county town are not high enough, and there are places that have fallen into disrepair and collapse to take into account, and it is already difficult for the soldiers to defend the city, so how can they have the spare strength to help drive away the displaced people.

In order to enter the city to reveal his identity, these homeless people listened to it, and their originally dim eyes lit up.

Disaster relief food?

There is food!

Relief from the drought in Huainan, isn't this food for them?

If there is food, why not distribute it.

There is food, why not let them into the city!

The yellow-skinned, thin-skinned, ragged homeless people got up from the ground with their hands and feet, and approached the grain transport team, and they could guess what these people wanted to do.

There were homeless people blocking the road in front, and there were thieves chasing after him, and He Wan was anxious.

"Grandpa, I seem to have said the wrong thing...... What to do? ”

In the business field, dealing with businessmen who look down on women, He Wan can make them change.

Businessmen are profit-oriented, and as long as they are profitable, they can hide their disdain for women.

But these homeless people are not those businessmen at all.

They have nothing left.

Seeking is not profit, but how to live!

Old man He patted He Wan outside: "Don't be afraid, there is grandpa here, grandpa has encountered more difficult things than this." ”

Cheng Qing, the guards of the He family, did not stay, all of them are still there, dozens of guards are trusted by the He family, some are the He family's buddies, and others are all for various reasons.

One or two thousand thieves, everyone may be in a mess, one or two thousand homeless people, all of them have yellow muscles, thin hands and feet, and there are no weapons in their hands, what is there to fear?

He is not afraid of those homeless people.

As long as they are given hope to live, they will not take risks.

The old man got out of the carriage, stood in front of the grain caravan, and said only two things.

First, the imperial court sent Cheng Zhuangyuan to relieve the disaster, and Cheng Zhuangyuan brought 20,000 stone of grain, enough to feed one or two thousand people here.

Second, if the disaster relief grain is robbed by thieves, Cheng Zhuangyuan will not be able to conjure up food out of thin air, and the imperial court will not send food again, and will directly send troops to suppress the bandits!

"The one who steals the grain is the thief!"

"Keep the relief food, and everyone will live together."

"When Cheng Zhuangyuan enters the city, he will start disaster relief."

"Are you willing to wait two more hours, or will you be exterminated as a thief by the court?"

The homeless people didn't believe what he said.

They fled all the way from Huainan to here, they were rejected, they were deceived too many times, and they were expelled in any state capital they went, and there were really court officials who wanted to come to relieve the disaster?

Was the food given to them?

Transported into the city, everyone will not see a grain of rice!

A homeless man stood up and questioned the identity of He Laoyuanwai, meaning why he should be trusted.

Old man He touched his beard: "Let the grain transport team enter the city, and the old man will stay with you, Cheng Zhuangyuan is the grandson-in-law of the old man, can he still ignore the old man?" ”

The old man could pretend to be Cheng Qing's grandfather, and when the words came to his lips, he said it according to his heart.

Staying outside the city, I don't know if I can survive, the old man followed his heart.

The homeless people didn't think it was useful to take an old man as a hostage.

The hands of the homeless people touched the bags of grain on the carts.

You don't have to wait two hours, as long as you snatch the food, you don't have to go hungry.

Old man He sighed, these homeless people are already very pitiful, if it is not a last resort, the old man does not want to hurt any homeless people.

But the grain convoy is still waiting to enter the city.

Cheng Qing himself was in the rear to defend against the enemy, delaying the time for the grain transportation team, and the old man had to harden his heart and break through from the interception of the homeless people.

There are more than 2,000 people who transport grain, although they are tired in the past two days, they have dry food to eat, and pork supplied by Cheng Qing to eat, and their physical fitness is much better than that of these displaced people, and they also have an advantage in numbers.

There are also dozens of family members of the He family, all of whom carry weapons, and meet the thieves in a narrow way, as long as the difference between the two sides is not too big, they can also fight, and in the face of these unarmed homeless, the combat effectiveness is even stronger...... Just waiting for Old Man He's order, dozens of families of the He family will regard the displaced people as enemies.

The family of the He family did not dare to move without an order, the people who transported the grain were not polite, everyone was afraid of being chased and killed by the thieves behind, and there were still people here who were crookedly blocking the way, so what was there to hesitate, roll up their sleeves and beat people.

On the one hand, there is a thirst to fill the stomach.

One side is afraid of being killed by thieves.

The fight is on the verge of breaking out.

The fight is to win, but once the fight starts, wouldn't it be a waste of the time that Cheng Qing led people to enter the city that the grain transportation team had won?

At the critical moment, He Wan stood up and lifted the curtain:

"I'll stay as a hostage, and you let the team carrying the grain enter the city...... I am Cheng Zhuangyuan's wife who has never been through the door, with me in your hands, Cheng Zhuangyuan will definitely give you food! ”
