Yun Zhishen was still very smart, so after the raid, he distributed a part of the grain to the people. Take away all the money and valuables of the city officials and merchants.

What you can't take away, divide it out.

The local people are not having a good time, and they have food for nothing, how can they not say that General Yun is good?

General Luo couldn't do it before, and he was still collecting grain in the city.

Now General Yun is here to distribute food.

How do the people know what your troubles are? Anyway, I have food to eat now, and that's a good thing.

Moreover, he even gathered more than 10,000 remnants of the scattered soldiers.

Give money, give food.

Isn't the reason why the imperial court was defeated was because they couldn't eat enough?

Now that I can eat enough and pay back the money, who will I fight or not?

They have no burden to defect.

This time, Yun Zhishen only needs to allocate a part of his forces in Ganyang Mansion.

There is still half of Liaocheng in the middle to buffer.

You can go in and out.

In just a few months, Yun Zhishen has already occupied three cities and dozens of counties.

To the west of the Fen River, he occupies a small half.

At this time, the emperor also knew that the situation was urgent.

So he sent people to urgently requisition grain and grass, and ordered General Song, the guard general of Wanzhou Mansion, and General Xu of the Ministry of War and several other generals to rush to help.

Wanzhou transferred 30,000 soldiers, and Anping Prefecture transferred 30,000 soldiers.

The generals of the military department went to seven or eight, and one of them was General Hu.

As for General Zhu, who went to the northwest to deliver military rations last time, he still didn't get the opportunity to go to the battlefield after he came back.

Just a few days after the departure of the army, news came from Yuping Prefecture and Chuanning Prefecture one after another, and local locusts had crossed the border. Most of the crops were plagued.

After the locusts, the land is thousands of miles away, and not a single grass grows.

And the most worrying thing is that the locusts came from the grassland.

In other words, it may have plagued Beiyi.

In this way, I am afraid that before winter, the Beiyi people will have to plunder.

This is really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, and the boat was late and encountered a head wind.

It seems that there is no grain harvest in the north this year, and the imperial court still has to provide disaster relief.

Then this military ration had to be pressed on the heads of the people in other places.

No matter how much the emperor knew that he would defeat Yun Zhi and cross the Fen River, it would be almost Gyeonggi.

It's still far away, but Dayuan still loses its territory?

When the treasury is already running out of money to support it, it can only increase taxes. No matter how you look at it, it's all the way the rivers are going down.

Su Nancheng changed into a robe and put on a jacket outside. The weather was not good this year either.

The north was hit by a plague of locusts, and it rained coldly in the capital, and for two days in a row, the weather became cold.

This winter, I don't know what to do.

"Childe, I heard that many families in the capital are buying grain, saying that it is a disaster in the north, and I am afraid that this year will be a disaster year. The imperial court is raising grain again, but it is afraid that the price of grain will rise this year. "When I left the house, I was born.

"Oh, then go back and talk to the houses on both sides, and tell them to prepare some too."

As for the house, he doesn't care.

"Hey." Lian Sheng nodded.

As soon as I went to the Ministry of Works, I heard someone else talk about something.

"I heard from the Ministry of War that the people from the south who exterminated the Peacock Sect have been recalled. It's not to be taken care of, is it? ”

Su Nancheng answered: "Now that I'm back, I haven't caught the culprit, isn't there no merit?" ”

"Hey, what else do you want to do, the boss can say it, General Luo came back this time to ask for the guilt. It's General Fei who goes to the south, right? It's good to come back, but if something happens, don't you also ask for the guilt? It's not easy to be a general these days. ”

Su Nancheng also shook his head and smiled: "Isn't it." The day before yesterday, I met an adult from the military department, and I saw him from afar with a black face and a sad face. ”

Lord Zhao whispered, "You don't know yet, right? It's going to be a tax hike again......"

Everyone looked at each other and finally sighed.

Although, this group of officials and gentlemen did not feel much distress for the people, or they didn't know how the people lived.

But this kind of thing, you can still enjoy it after listening to it, and that's rare.

Su Nancheng has seen the people of Xianzhou in Jiangnan making trouble, but if he makes trouble, the people of Xianzhou will not starve to death.

But now that the layers of taxes are added, I don't know what will happen.

But for now, it's good that General Fei can come back. Otherwise, he is afraid that he will not be able to provide money and food in Jiangnan. After a long time, something has to happen.

When the time comes, if you are convicted because of this, the gain will outweigh the loss.

Before Fei Jiu returned to Beijing, Sunan Cheng went on a trip.

didn't think about it, but met General Zhu himself.

I was very surprised: "Xia Guan has seen General Zhu." ”

General Zhu was also surprised when he saw him: "Why is Lord Xiao Su here?" ”

“…… Xia Guan thought that General Fei had not come back yet, and now the sky had changed. So come and see what is needed in the house. Sunan Cheng said.

General Zhu was stunned for a moment and then smiled: "It's a coincidence." It's also fate to meet, so sit here through him? ”

Su Nancheng smiled: "It's better to be respectful than to obey your fate." ”

Sunan Cheng knew that Fei Jiu didn't care much about the affairs of the house, so he came over and said that he was coming back soon.

Tell the house here to prepare some, and he can send anything he lacks.

General Zhu probably meant the same thing.

After all, there is only one master in this mansion, Fei Jiu, he is not at home, and he took away all his cronies and lieutenants.

There are only people in the house.

"I know you come and go, but I don't know if he's not here and you." General Zhu said.

"Probably thinking of General Fei, he has been gone for a long time. Recently, there has been a lot of news in the capital, and it is said that the price of grain has risen, and the price of charcoal fire has also increased in winter. I thought, not that there are no these, but I just thought in my heart, come and take a look, and it is better to wait for the general to come back and settle down. ”

General Zhu nodded: "You are thoughtful." He had no wife, no concubines, and no heirs. In the past, Lao Hu and I were close to him. Now Lao Hu is not here. It's also good that you come often. It's just that he is a military general after all, and you still have to pay attention to your identity. ”

Without waiting for Su Nancheng to speak, he said again: "Even if I talk a lot, you are also paying attention to these times." ”

"What General Zhu reminds is that the lower officials will be careful."

"General, I don't know...... How is the Northwest? If it's inconvenient, the general won't say it. I'm just curious, how did I lose so quickly? Su Nancheng asked.

When General Zhu heard this, his face was extremely ugly.

He didn't come to Fei Jiu today to distract himself.

"I really didn't expect it...... I really didn't expect that the soldiers of Dayuan could end up where they are today. No wonder Jinzhou is so easy to turn around. General Zhu took a deep breath: "Do you know that the officers and soldiers in the army can't make up three pairs of armor in ten miles?" Some soldiers have not been paid for more than a year. ”

"Usually in the camp, I only have one meal a day......"

"The military salaries and rations I sent over are simply a drop in the bucket. It was precisely because General Luo knew this that he was unable to start the war for a long time. You can't let a soldier go hungry, can you? ”

"The actual number of the barracks is not satisfied...... I knew there were dissatisfactions, but I didn't expect that there would be seven out of ten! I don't know where the money went! ”
