Liang Chenxiao also knows that now that he is under siege, if he can't get rid of the siege, the most useless thing is silver.

Therefore, he first threw out the Southern Expeditionary Army, convincing everyone that the siege was only temporary.

Then he was willing to pay ten times the amount of silver, and after the siege was lifted, he was willing to compensate for the grain.

As soon as I said this, some people were moved.

Food is in short supply during the war, and if Liang Chenxiao hadn't said that he would have to compensate for food after the siege was lifted, maybe everyone would have a lot of doubts, but if compensation was given, everyone wouldn't have to worry about starvation during the war.

When the war was over, they made a sum of money.

However, Liang Chenxiao and they are all officials, what if the time comes, what if they don't admit it?

Looking at some people's heartfelt and somewhat doubtful expressions, Liang Chenxiao said again: "After everyone sends the grain, we will give the villagers a voucher, and when the time comes, we will stamp the seal of the general of the vanguard army and the official seal of the official, and everyone can rely on the seal letter to receive the compensation for the grain." ”

In this era, the folk customs are simple and promised.

Especially when Liang Chenxiao said that he would stamp the seal, everyone was immediately relieved and began to calculate how much food they could send and how much silver they could get.

Few people would doubt that the siege could not be lifted, but it was only a matter of seeing how soon or late the Southern Expeditionary Army arrived.

Although there are many dense forests and swamps in southern Xinjiang, it is difficult to capture, but because the national strength and military strength of the Shengtang far surpass that of the southern Xinjiang, everyone is really not afraid of fighting on the land of the Shengtang side.

The Southern Xinjiang Army didn't know what to smoke, so it didn't guard its misty one-third of an acre of land, and it actually ran to the territory of Shengtang.

But in fact, everyone is also a little puzzled, why the border army is so cowardly this time......

A small riot was quelled by Liang Chenxiao in this way, and then many people really sent food to the Armament House.

"General Liang, is Zhu Laosan really a traitor in Southern Xinjiang?"

One of Liang Chenxiao's personal soldiers asked him secretly.

"Of course not, but now the city needs a traitor ...... southern Xinjiang"

Oh, although this Zhu Laosan is not a traitor in southern Xinjiang, but he is a-stirring stick sent to the army by Jinyiwei, and he is not wronged at all if he is accused of being a traitor.

The most important thing is that by today's events, the entire people in Banan City will become his eyes.

Anyone who provokes trouble, everyone will suspect him and report it to the Armaments Office.

You must know that since ancient times, people have hated the most about meticulous work and traitors, not to mention, at this time, everyone was trapped in Banan City by the Southern Xinjiang Army, and the unspeakable grievances naturally hated the so-called traitors in Southern Xinjiang who hid in the city to stir up trouble.

And Liang Chenxiao also took advantage of the people's psychology to temporarily unite the people in the city.

However, he also knew that such unity was based on everyone's belief that the southern Xinjiang army was not the opponent of the Shengtang army, and because everyone knew that the 50,000 southern army of the imperial court was behind them.

A few days later, after the army that can't wait for the imperial court to come, and the food is exhausted, the people's hearts will still be scattered......

However, Liang Chenxiao knew that the southern army would not save them.

The imperial court wanted to use this battle with southern Xinjiang to force Liang Chenxiao into a desperate situation, so as to force the missing Mo Ren army out.

Because of the support of the people in the city, Liang Chenxiao raised some grain and grass, but because it was still very scarce, the soldiers could only eat one meal a day and took turns to go to the military mansion.
