Chapter Twenty-Five: It's Just a Little Strong
So Mr. Feng took 5 people from Linjia Village and 10 people from Qingyunzhai out of the camp.
Out of the camp, I picked up firewood all the way and walked away......
When he couldn't see the camp, Mr. Feng asked Lin Xiaoxi's eldest brother, Lin Dajiang, to take the villagers to pick up some firewood around.
Mr. Feng: "I'll take them to the front to have a look, I want to pick up more firewood and go back, so many people are waiting to use it." ”
……
"Mr. Feng."
Mr. Feng took 10 people from Qingyun Village to find a hidden place, and was about to say something, but was startled by Jiang Yao and Jiang Yu who suddenly appeared.
Then he was pleasantly surprised: "Sir? You didn't go? ”
"I'll just say that Mr. won't leave us alone, Mr. Feng, you still don't believe it." One of the 10 men spoke up.
Jiang Yu was surprised: "Shi Da is in charge? ”
"Hehe, Miss Jiang, it's my old stone." Shi Yanzheng touched his smooth cheeks uncomfortably.
Mr. Feng shaved his beard, and then smeared a layer of charcoal powder, and after a while, he looked like a peasant man.
Jiang Yu almost didn't recognize him.
……
Mr. Feng: "Did you two find something wrong?" ”
Jiang Yu nodded: "They are indeed here to recruit Ding, but this Ding is not a military household as they said, but ...... Cannon fodder. ”
Mr. Feng sighed: "Aren't unarmed ordinary villagers cannon fodder when they go to the battlefield?" ”
Jiang Yu shook his head and said heavily, "No, that kind of cannon fodder may still survive, but what they want to recruit is Ding who is destined to not survive." ”
Mr. Feng was surprised: "What does this mean?" ”
So Jiang Yu told them what they had heard......
……
"My lord, in the past, wasn't it true that each household was recruited according to the quota? Why is there a whole household levy this time? Is it really a conscription to be a military household? ”
Qianhu sneered: "Conscription households? Farming only in the rear? Do you believe it? ”
The monkey shook his head, of course he didn't believe it, so he thought it was strange.
Qianhu: "Do you know what is happening to the east of Qingzhou now, from Yizhou in the north to Xingcheng in the south?" ”
Monkey: "I vaguely heard that there was a drought, but I don't know if it's serious." ”
"Can it not be serious? Half of Wu is suffering from drought, refugees everywhere! Coupled with the fact that we are now in a stalemate with the Chu State, and there is still a faint tendency to be suppressed, do you think Your Majesty still has the strength to go to disaster relief? ”
Monkey: "Then why do the others go north to conquer Ding?" Aren't they all refugees? ”
Seeing that the monkey was still puzzled, Qianhu was secretly proud, and said mysteriously: "It's the refugees who are recruited!" ”
"Huh?"
"Someone gave His Majesty an idea, and all these refugees who fled from the place of household registration were recruited, and then used as bait to die with the soldiers and horses of the Chu State! In this way, disaster relief is saved, and there is no need to worry about their rebellion, and you can also calculate the Chu army, killing three birds with one stone. ”
The monkey opened its mouth in surprise and said, "...... Those women and children can't pretend to be soldiers, how can they be used as bait? Why do you have to levy it together, isn't that a waste of food? ”
"If it's just for men, do you think they'll agree? Besides, this is a headache for the generals, if you want me to say, it's easy, men pretend to be soldiers, and the old and weak pretend to be refugees, anyway, didn't their Chu State threaten to accept refugees? That's not right. ”
"There is also the southern country, which also says that it will accept refugees, and maybe it can bring down both countries. As for those women, it's easier, isn't there a shortage of women in the army......" he said and gave the monkey an ambiguous look.
The monkey was stunned for a moment, smiled knowingly, and hesitated: "Is this news reliable, my lord?" ”
"What? Don't believe me? Although I am a side branch, I am also a member of the family, and my own family has sent news for me, so it is natural and reliable. ”
"The adults are angry, and the villains mean, if it is serious, these people, then aren't they at our mercy?" He blinked ambiguously as he spoke.
Qianhu waved his hand: "I can't look at those goods yet." ”
Qianhu glanced at the monkey: "You also give me some stops, there are a lot of people in this group, in case of public anger, it will be a trouble at that time, and I have to find another group of people, it is better to go back to Yangcheng as soon as possible, I don't want to suffer outside." ”
"Yes, yes, yes."
At the end, Qianhu instructed again: "This is a secret, don't spread it to me, you kid." ”
The monkey repeatedly promised: "Of course, the villain's mouth is the strictest, so don't worry, adult!" ”
Jiang Yu: No, I know everything.
……
"Livestock!" Shi Yanzheng angrily punched the big stone on the side......
“…… ......"The stone spread out several cracks around Shi Yanzheng's fist, and then shattered into countless pieces......
Jiang Yao: "......"
Jiang Yu: "...... Could this be the legendary internal strength? ”
Shi Yanzheng withdrew his hand, scratched his head, and glanced at Mr. Feng carefully: "Hehe, I didn't control ......"
Mr. Feng sighed: "That's it, it's all my own people." ”
Shi Yanzheng breathed a sigh of relief: "That's it, the two gentlemen are not outsiders, it's okay." ”
"But Miss Jiang, what are you talking about? Is it a great martial arts? Will you? Can you teach me? ……”
Mr. Feng coughed and interrupted Shi Yanzheng.
Jiang Yao looked at Shi Yanzheng and Mr. Feng deeply.
Jiang Yu: "Aren't you internal strength?" Then how did you punch such a big stone......
"Hey, I don't have anything else, but I have a little bit of strength."
Jiang Yu: "......"
Jiang Yu looked at the gravel on the ground, this is called a bit big??
……
After an interlude, everyone returned to the main topic.
Jiang Yao grabbed Jiang Yu, who wanted to speak, and said, "Does Mr. Feng think what the thousand households said is true?" ”
Jiang Yu glanced at Jiang Yao strangely, don't you want to pay attention to them?
But everyone was pondering, and they didn't find it.
Mr. Feng: "I think it should be true. ”
Jiang Yao: "Why is Mr. so sure?" ”
Mr. Feng: "The current Emperor of Wu was born recklessly, and with a group of brothers and ruthless people, he rose up in the civil strife and occupied a place in the Tianyou Continent, which can be regarded as a strong army. ”
Jiang Yu: "Since Mr. said that the army of Wu is strong, why did he stalemate with the war of Chu for a long time?" ”
Mr. Feng shook his head and said, "At the beginning, Wu Guo had the momentum of sweeping all directions, but it didn't take long for the drawbacks to come out. ”
"The emperor of Wu wanted to expand the territory in one go, relying on his strong army, and aimed at the state of Chu, but he didn't know that although the state of Chu was slightly inferior to the state of Wu, it was not much worse."
"I have also heard that there is a large-scale drought in the territory of Wu State, in fact, not only Wu State, but also the neighboring Chu State and Northern State have also been affected, but Wu State has been the most affected."
"In addition, the disaster relief is not in time, and it is becoming more and more serious, and I heard that there have been cases of changing children and eating in some places."
"What's more, the emperor of Chu has a good rule, and in a short period of time, the state of Wu is in ruin, but the state of Chu is thriving. The more and more Wu is defeated. ”
"With the national conditions of Wu and the emperor's temperament, it is very likely that he will make such a stupid move, that is, he will pity these refugees." With that, he sighed deeply.
Jiang Yao: "Mr. is not from Wu Guo?" ”
Mr. Feng: "How so? ”
Jiang Yao: "Obviously, you have been talking about Wu Guo as an outsider. ”
When Mr. Feng heard this, he simply admitted: "We came from the Yue Kingdom, and we were going to Chu State, but when Wu and Chu were at war and martial law was under martial law, it was difficult for a group of us to enter, so we could only find a gap in the Wu State and go all the way west to Qingyun Mountain." I thought I could live in seclusion in the mountains and live in peace, but I ......"
Jiang Yu saw that everyone in Qingyun Mountain was depressed, and hurriedly changed the topic: "Then what should we do next?" What are Mr. Feng's plans for coming out this time? ”
