Chapter 229, Troubled Times

Their leader could only continue south with his men, and then they saw the culprit of these glacial disasters, the volcano!

Originally, there were tens of millions of people on the grassland, but this snow disaster reduced the population of the grassland by 7 percent, and only these three million people survived with the help of the monks and the method of making snow houses from Xu Hao.

The leader of the herdsmen is called Helian Yongli, a four-rank monk, and can be said to be the strongest of this group. In the case that the three strong people are extinct, they have become the single Yu of the grassland tribe! The same severe snow storm brought them together!

He naturally knew that this natural disaster was because of this volcano, he was in awe when he came here, no matter how strong the strength of their monks was, he had never heard that anyone could cause such a big disaster, this was a force that the monks had to be in awe, he looked at the volcano as if he was looking at the most powerful demon in the world!

But the herdsmen were rejoicing, because they finally saw a touch of green in the snow, although the volcano was frozen by Xu Hao, but relying on the geothermal heat, the volcano is a hundred miles away from spring, the climate is pleasant, and even because of the volcanic ash, the surrounding grass is half a person high.

The herders were so excited that they had only found a place to graze! War horses and cattle and sheep have fresh pasture to eat, so the migrating tribe stopped here, everyone raised the war horses, cattle and sheep fattened, the herdsmen here even forgot the cold wind outside, and even most of the herdsmen refused to continue south.

But Helian Yongli knew that this small grassland with a radius of 100 miles alone was only enough to feed a medium-sized tribe of 10,000 people, and it was impossible to feed 3 million people, and the only way out for everyone was to continue to go south!

Helian Yongli convened many tribal leaders and said: "Although this grassland is lush, it is too small to support our 3 million people, and going south is our only way out, if any of you want to stay, I will not stop it!" ”

There are not only various tribes here, but also many demons and monsters, they are also the leaders or priests of the tribe, the grassland is not as good as the Central Plains, the environment here is harsh, it is difficult to survive, and it has created an atmosphere of respect for the strong in the grassland, and they don't care about the difference between demons and demons at all, plus there is a country of ten thousand demons here, and everyone is under the leadership of the Demon Sect, so it has created a strange scene, and the relationship between the demons here is actually better than that of the Central Plains. As you can see from the tribal leaders who discuss here, half of them are youkai!

"Naturally, it went south, although there are not many living people in Youzhou to grab not only something, but Jizhou is the most prosperous place in Daqi, in the past, we couldn't get in the dead light department, but now we can go to the Central Plains, of course we have to grab enough!" A tribal leader shouted!

"Not only to grab, but also to occupy, the grassland has not turned snow until now, if we want to survive, we must move south to the Central Plains and occupy a piece of territory in the Central Plains!" A fox-headed tribal leader said.

Helian Yongli said to a minotaur: "Niu Dali, you often go in and out of the Central Plains, and you know more about the situation in the Central Plains than we do, can you tell me your opinion?" ”

Niu Dali said: "Now Daqi itself is difficult to protect, as long as we don't attack Dachengchi, I think Daqi will not pay attention to our fleeing tribe, but from the current situation, Daqi will not have too much food, more than 3 million people gathered together, if you can't grab food, you can only starve to death." The key is to find a way to get food! ”

A tribal leader was surprised: "How can you not grab it, we are in front of the Central Plains, and the population of a county in Daqi will be more than our entire tribe, in such a prosperous place, you actually say that you can't grab food!" ”

Niu Dali could only smile bitterly: "You are talking about a few years ago, and what happened in these years, everyone knows that in the first two years, Daqi fought with the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom, and later fought with the Sea Clan, fought with our Demon Sect, fought with our tribe, and fought and killed, so how much food may be saved, and the climate of the past two years has also been seen, and it is estimated that the food has been eaten up, a few years ago I came to Youzhou to see the county seat with a population of tens of thousands everywhere, but today we rushed to Youzhou to see more cities than people, Youzhou is like this, How much stronger will Jizhou, which is close to Youzhou? ”

Helian Yongli said: "Rob, we can still save some of our subordinates, but if we don't rob, we can only starve to death!" ”

Niu Dali said: "In this situation, the place where there is still a lot of food in the whole Daqi may be Yuzhang County, when I recognized a big brother in Yuzhang County, there is a way to get food, but we invaded Daqi all the way, I am worried that Xu Hao will not sell us food!" ”

Helian Yong said: "With the current situation of Daqi, even if there is more food, it is impossible to sell us, how much grain can your eldest brother have, can he supply our 3 million tribes?" Can supply hundreds of millions of people? Robbery is our only way out! Jizhou is close to the south, it is impossible to think that Youzhou is so empty, and I think I know that the people of Youzhou must have run to Jizhou. ”

"It's just that the people don't want to go south?"

Helian Yongli smiled: "When the grass here is eaten up, everyone can only go south if they don't starve to death." ”

Sure enough, the 3 million people only stayed here for 10 days, and the green grass and green grassland had been completely eaten by cattle and sheep.

The herdsmen then wept and gave up this feng shui treasure and continued to go south in the ice and snow!

After 10 days of traveling south, 3 million herders arrived in Bohai County!

Because Bohai County is close to the sea, the temperature is relatively high, and now there is a temperature of a few degrees, the ice and snow are beginning to melt here, and even the green grass can see a little shoot, but it is a pity that this temperature is not enough to grow wheat, everyone goes to the beach to fish, and rely on the artificial grain of the imperial court to barely live.

Because Bohai County is close to the inland, it has no intention of guarding against the grassland tribes at all, so in the face of 3 million herdsmen attacking the city, even if the people of Bohai County defend with all their might, it only resists the city being breached for 10 days.

Bohai County was slaughtered by Helian Yongli and others, and all the grain was plundered, and then they continued south. However, at this time, the imperial court of Daqi had already reacted, and although it could not send a large army to support, it immediately sent a Jizhou pastor to unify the forces of the entire Jizhou.

Although Jizhou was also hit hard in this snow disaster, the current population is still more than 10 million, and it is easy to recruit 100,000 troops, and the imperial court has artificial grain and there is no shortage of food, and the victims have no way to farm.
