Chapter 86: Systematic Rewards
The granary is located in a stone manor behind Bluestone Fort, about a few hundred meters away from the main street of Bluestone Fort.
By the time Yang Zheng led everyone through the granary, the fire had already begun to rise.
Inside and outside the huge granary, thick smoke billowed and a blazing fiery romantic sky swept over.
"Hurry up and fetch water to put out the fire!"
"Get some more barrels and trays!"
"These goddamn beasts, so much food, they were burned in one fire, it's really fucking not human......"
Seeing that the flames in the granary were fierce, everyone didn't need Yang Zheng's orders at all, they held wooden barrels and wooden plates one by one, desperately watering and extinguishing the fire, wanting to extinguish the flames on both sides of the granary gate, so that everyone could have the opportunity to rush in and rush out some grain.
At this time, Zhao Tiefist's face was full of soot, and he came to Yang Zheng in embarrassment, and said loudly: "Owner, those damned Khitans poured fire oil at the door, and with our manpower, it is estimated that by the time the flames at the door are extinguished, the grain inside will be almost burned." ”
Hearing this, Yang Zheng immediately ordered: "Go and call all those Han enslavers in the city immediately, and let them help extinguish the fire, if we don't have this food, not only will we starve, but they will also have nothing to eat!" ”
"Yes, owner, I'll go." After that, Zhao Tiequan immediately took a few people to the city to summon people.
Not long after, Zhao Tiequan rushed over with hundreds of meters of ragged Han enslavement, holding various tools for holding water to extinguish the fire.
At this moment, Yang Zheng didn't have the heart to talk nonsense, and directly threatened loudly: "Everyone listen to me, do your best to rescue the food, how much can be rushed out, if there is no food, I will kill people to satisfy hunger at that time!" ”
As soon as these words came out, the gang of Han people were frightened by the enslavement, and they ran faster than anyone else one by one, for fear that they would run out of food, and this gang of fierce and vicious guys would really kill them as rations.
There is strength in numbers.
With the concerted efforts of hundreds of people to extinguish the fire and save food, everyone finally extinguished the fire on both sides of the granary gate.
At this time, the Han enslavers immediately covered their mouths with damp cloths, soaked their clothes with ice water, and then rushed into the still burning granaries one by one, and rushed out bags of grain that had not yet been burned.
After rushing out of hundreds of stones, the flames inside became more and more intense, and at this time, if everyone went in again, not only would they not be able to carry much food out, but their lives would be in danger.
Seeing this scene, Yang Zheng sighed deeply and ordered everyone to stop extinguishing the fire and saving food.
Inside the granary, thick smoke and flames rolled up, and the monstrous flames stained the night sky red.
Yang Zheng led everyone to retreat dozens of steps away, and watched as the raging fire burned thousands of stones of grain and grass stored in the granary into ashes.
At this time, Yang Dapeng successfully searched and cleaned up all the Khitan people hiding in the city, and when he heard that the owner was leading people to put out the fire, he immediately led his thirty people to hurry over to help.
It's a pity that when they came, they were powerless to go back, and it was all over.
Without food and grass, we will not be able to survive this cold winter, let alone survive.
Thinking of this, everyone's faces were very gloomy, and even those Han slaves were also depressed, and their hearts were full of horror and worry.
Looking at the dangerous burning granary, Yang Zheng took a deep breath, relieved his depressed mood, turned his head and Yang Dapeng commanded: "Just now after a group of Khitan people ignited the granary, they fled towards the depths of the valley, at this moment Yang Mazizheng led people to chase them, and now there is no way to eat food, you bring people over to help Yang Mazi and see how the situation is on their side." ”
"Yes, owner!"
Yang Dapeng bowed and saluted, and was about to take thirty elites of the Yang family to assist Yang Mazi, but before he took a few steps, he saw Yang Mazi leading the people back from a distance.
"Zhuang owner, Yang Mazi has returned."
Hearing this, Yang Zheng looked up and saw Yang Mazi leading his subordinates, and ran over angrily, "Owner, those dog-day Khitans are so insidious and cunning, they actually let them run away!" ”
Yang Zheng raised his eyebrows and said suspiciously: "According to my observation, this bluestone fort is built in the valley, surrounded by mountains, and there are cliffs everywhere. ”
Yang Mazi nodded, panting and said: "The owner guessed right, at the end of the valley behind, there is a deep cliff ditch, about five or six zhang wide, originally there was a rope soft bridge on the cliff deep ditch, but after the Khitan people fled from the soft bridge to the opposite side, they cut the rope, we can't go over, we can only watch them slip away." It's a pity, it's a pity, I just let the Khitan leader run away......"
Because he was not worried about the old and weak women and children who were still in the wild, late that night, after Yang Zheng completely controlled the situation of the entire Qingshi Fort, he immediately sent Yang Meng and others out of the city to pick them up.
The rest of the men and horses began to deploy defenses in the city, and at the same time clean up the battlefield and clean up the corpses left behind by the Khitans.
Yang Zheng and Zhao Tiequan stood on top of the tower of the bluestone fort, turning to look at this small city that they had successfully occupied, their emotions were inevitably a little complicated and excited.
"Owner, how should those Han people in the city be enslaved?"
Yang Zheng thought for a while and said, "When Mr. Liu comes, let's discuss it again." ”
Zhao Tiequan nodded, "Mr. Liu is a scholar, and he should be better at calming people's hearts than those of us rough people." ”
Yang Zheng said: "Wait for Uncle Zhao's order, our people must be in order, not to harass those Han people in the city to enslave, let alone to come around in the city." ”
Hearing this, Zhao Tiequan smiled and said, "We are not mountain bandits, where will we mess around." ”
Yang Zheng waved his hand, "At this time and that time, people's hearts will always change, and we still have to explain it, if Chen Qiang's reckless men make trouble, it will always be trouble." ”
Seeing that he suddenly mentioned Chen Qiang, Zhao Tiequan frowned and said: "Chen Qiang, that guy likes wine, and his temper is short-tempered, so he really has to keep an eye on it, without further ado, go over and remind them now." ”
Looking at the back of Zhao Tiequan leaving in a hurry, suddenly, in the depths of Yang Zheng's mind, a cold prompt voice suddenly sounded.
"Congratulations to the chief for successfully occupying a (town-level) city, so the system will reward you with three arms lottery cards, and in addition, in the infinite armory, the No. 1 auxiliary warehouse is activated, do you want to accept the reward?"
