Chapter 330: Yandi Han people
..
It is naturally impossible for Hu Biao to be like Cao Mengde, who made a decision to find a substitute for the dead ghost when there was a shortage of food, to stabilize the morale of the army.
As for the issue of killing horses and eating meat, it is not impossible.
The key is that by now, not only the rice noodles and dried meat that they eat are basically exhausted, but even some of the beans eaten by the horses are also basically eaten up.
If the war horse is fed some grass, it does not mean that it is not good at all, but it must still be mixed with a lot of concentrate.
Otherwise, in the current kind of daily rush, which is considered a high-intensity use intensity, believe it or not, these war horses will lose weight soon after, resulting in a rapid decline in horsepower.
So after thinking about it in his heart, Hu Biao still waved the guide Qian Fu over.
After Qian Fu arrived with his war horse, Hu Biao asked:
"In addition to Jizhou City, where else can there be other places nearby, where can you get some grain and grass supplies? It doesn't matter if it's bought with silver money, or it's exchanged for war horses. "
didn't go directly to Jizhou City to buy grain, mainly because Hu Biao was worried:
Such a large group of people are too ostentatious, and it will be troublesome if they are targeted by a large number of Liao soldiers.
But in addition to this kind of area, after Hu Biao and them came over for so many days, although all the daring soldiers in the battalion were not able to fight on horseback, they did not have to worry about riding a war horse at all.
Even if you encounter something, you don't have to worry about it.
After hearing this, Qian Fu lowered his head and thought for a while, and then there was already an answer in his mouth:
"Hu Xuanzan, the villain knows that it is possible to get food and grass supplies in one place; It's just that there is no absolute guarantee, and there is an extra half-day detour, do you want to go over and have a look? "
"Lead the way." Hu Biao's mouth immediately shouted......
About three hours later, the place in Qian Fu's mouth that might have gotten the supply of grain and grass had already appeared in front of Hu Biao and others.
Actually, this is a dock fort called Lijiatunzi.
It is said that a total of about 1,000 men, women, and children lived collectively in such a large number of tuns.
Just by listening to the name 'Lijiatun, you can know that this is a gathering place for a group of Han people from the North; Among the sixteen states of Yanyun, the Han people are also the most populous group of people, so this thing is not unusual at all.
But even so, after hearing the above news, Hu Biao had more expectations in his heart.
After all, in his heart, instinct means that everyone is in the same vein as the Han family, and no matter how much they drop each other, they can have some incense affection.
Not to mention that they can directly support some grain, it should not be a problem for everyone to trade normally.
Unexpectedly, Hu Biao soon knew that he still thought too much about all this.
When Hu Biao and the others saw Lijiatun from a distance, they could see that there was a large area of wheat field outside the dock fort with a two- or three-meter earthen wall.
The wheat seedlings in the wheat field are now in the filling stage, and they can be harvested in a month at most.
Therefore, during this critical period, there were at least hundreds of people in the wheat field, who were busy watering, fertilizing and other operations in the wheat field. ….
It's just that on a watchtower above the wall, one of the sentinels saw a group of people from the Xuange camp from a distance, and a group of two horses approached this side.
Immediately, he took a gong and slammed it~.
In the sound of a loud gong, the people who were busy in the wheat field hurriedly retreated towards the dock fort at the first time.
After Hu Biao and the others drove to a stone's throw outside the dock fort.
A suspension bridge in the dock fort had been pulled up high, and all the people had been evacuated, leaving only some straw sandals outside.
On the top of the wall, there were about two or three hundred people at once.
In addition to most of the young men, there are ()

..
a small number of able-bodied women; Without exception, they are all holding knives, guns, bows and arrows, which is a bit like facing a great enemy.
If it is just for such a scene, Hu Biao can actually understand it.
After all, in the current chaotic world, it is completely understandable that only with more eyes and more precautions can we survive with difficulty.
But some subsequent developments, Hu Biao not only didn't understand at all, but couldn't help frowning heavily.
******
Outside of Lijiatun, Hu Biao and the others stopped far away and did not pick up any weapons, so as not to cause misunderstanding among the people in the wall.
It's just that Qian Fu took Hu Biao, and the two at least approached slowly.
The former Qian Fu shouted loudly in his mouth:
"I don't know if Old Man Li's body is still healthy, I am Qian Fu, the steward of the Jingfu merchant caravan, I don't know if there are still people in Lijiatun who still remember me."
Under such a statement, the people on the wall of the dock fort relaxed a little.
After a short time, a voice came down, with a bit of lazy taste: "It turned out to be a money manager, I haven't seen it for some days, I don't know what hell I have to do, why are we hiding in such a secluded place?" "
"We passed through Guidi, and the grain was a little insufficient, so I wanted to exchange fifteen stone of flour and twenty stone of soybean meal to feed the horses in your fortress; It can be bought with silver, or it can be exchanged for war. "
Qian Fu's mouth immediately replied.
Under such a request, the walled wall was silent for about a minute or two, and then gave an extremely outrageous reply:
"The money is gone, and now there are rebellious soldiers everywhere, and you can't buy anything with gold or silver; Just trade your horses for them, right? Just exchange five war horses. "
Originally, in this transaction, Hu Biao, who spoke with a southern accent, did not intend to speak, so as not to expose his identity.
But after hearing the above transactions, Hu Biao couldn't help but speak.
Special! With such a small amount of grain, they actually want to exchange them for five good war horses, isn't this a pit man?
"Not to mention that everyone is originally an old man, how to say that they are also children of the Han family, why are they so harsh; The folks in Lijiatun don't think about everyone's blood at all?
You might as well put it bluntly, we are all Great Song Dynasty people, can it be cheaper. "
However, such a statement was exchanged for a group of laughter on the wall. ….
In such laughter, Hu Biao became more and more annoyed in his heart.
even made Hu Biao suddenly react, in the future, whether it was the Jin soldiers attacking the Song Dynasty or the Yuan soldiers destroying the Song Dynasty, the main force of the battle was actually the Han army.
If there were no people to help the abuse, it would not necessarily be possible to destroy the corrupt Great Song Dynasty.
It seems that he is really too naïve, and he thinks that these people can have a little incense, and he thinks too much!
didn't wait for the people on the wall to say something, but Hu Biao and they were rescued in that village in Zhuozhou a few days ago, thinking that he was a fool, but he followed the Xuange camp to act.
With a sneer on his face, he spoke with emotion:
"The same son of the Han family? It's the biggest joke I've ever heard in my life.
Since Shi Jingjiao, Yandi has never heard of the Central Plains court, when we were bullied by the Khitan people and the Xi people, where was the Great Song Dynasty, and where were the Han compatriots over there? "
Hearing such a statement, Hu Biao's mouth originally wanted to refute something.
But as soon as all the words came to his lips, he turned pale.
In any case, after all, it was the emperors of the Great Song Dynasty who were too wasteful, that is, they went on a northern expedition when the country was founded, and the emperors behind didn't even dare to do it.
So much so that the Han people of Yandi had to struggle to survive under the Khitan and Xi people.
In the end, in the midst of the huge depression, they all turned into a sentence: "Okay, five horses are five horses, changed~"
That's it, here in Lijiatunwu Fort, ()

..
Hu Biao and the others exchanged the high price of five war horses for food and horse feed that they could eat for another three or five days.
In the following time, the Xuange camp and a group of more than 500 people continued to move forward.
On the way to the end, as they made their way north, the bunker kept appearing in front of their eyes, and they could often see as many as two or three in a whole day.
As for villages like Songjing, there are, but without exception, no one is populated.
The modern plane, these densely populated and prosperous places, is now desolate and somewhat terrifying.
The only thing that can be congratulated is that Hu Biao's speed has finally increased again; On the evening of February 28, the city of Pingzhou was already twenty miles away......
