Text Chapter 302 Grain and grass are in an emergency

Jiang Xiaobai said lightly: "Originally, I was still hesitating to kill you, but now it seems that you are certain to die!"

Li Minchao looked up to the sky and laughed, the corners of his eyes were moist, I don't know if it was waves, or tears, and said: "Jiang Xiaobai, you borrowed so many soldiers and horses, and you came all the way to tell me jokes? If you want to kill me, you just come here, fly over, I'll wait!" After speaking, there was another burst of laughter.

The soldiers behind him also burst into laughter.

Jiang Xiaobai nodded and said, "It will be as you wish!"

Li Minchao said: "I don't like nonsense, if you have the ability, you will come and kill me, I will wait for you with an open mind, don't let me wait too long, I don't have the patience of the sea and the rocks, if you don't have the ability, you just roll back with your tail between your legs, don't think that you will be the boss if you borrow a little soldiers and horses, you are the second, Zhongxia Kingdom is not a place for you to go wild, without our emperor, you are not a fart!"

Chen Jingru drew his knife out of the sheath, pointed at him and said angrily: "You wait for me, if you don't break the corpse, I will not be a man!"

Li Minchao was deliberately startled, and said: "Yo, isn't this Qinglianghou's apprentice? You are the same as your master, you only have the kung fu on your mouth, come on, come and bite me!"

Jiang Xiaobai didn't want to answer him anymore, turned around and left, and at the same time beckoned to Chen Jingru, and said, "It's just a crazy bark, what are you doing with him?"

Chen Jingru gritted his teeth and said: "Just because he is a dog, he must be docile, and I don't like a dog that bites." ”

Jiang Xiaobai sighed: "Since you don't like it, let's kill it!"

Li Minchao shouted at their backs: "Qinglianghou, since you can borrow soldiers and horses, you can also borrow some wings, hurry up and fly over, I'm waiting to open my eyes!"

I was going to laugh a few more times after I finished speaking, but seeing that the other party didn't turn around, I also felt bored, so I turned around.

Although he is frivolous, he is not a straw bag, otherwise he would not have been valued by Han Yiba, and he still has some goods in his stomach. He didn't dare to be careless, and sent an order: "Inform the spies on the other side of the river, let me stare Jiang Xiaobai's soldiers and horses to death, even if I leave a soldier, I must report back." Also, the monks who came back from Jiangnan didn't let them come back for an idle meal, they all acted as sentinels for me, and they were deployed along the Fanlong River, one sentry per mile, and Jiang Xiaobai must not be allowed to sneak across the river!"

I answered left and right, and went down.

Jiang Xiaobai came out of the canyon, Liu Zhisheng rode a dragon lin horse back from outside, and only stopped in front of Jiang Xiaobai, and said hurriedly: "Master Hou is not good, you guessed right, I have explored the nearby cities, the granary is empty, and there is no surplus grain in the people's homes, all of them have been bought out!"

Because the speed of the dragon horse is too fast, it is inconvenient to travel with the weight of grain and grass, so it can only travel lightly, and each monk's horse comes with a bag of grain and grass, and it can be eaten for a month at most. Because of the fighting of the monks, it will never affect mortals, even if the killing outside the city is dark and the blood is flowing, but the city is still singing and dancing, and all industries are prosperous. If anyone breaks this rule and is known by the Leng Yan Palace, there is only one way to die. Therefore, the monks went on an expedition, and the soldiers and horses did not move, and they never needed food and grass first, but only bought them along the way. Who would have thought that Han Yiba would do such a great job and buy all the grain in Jiangnan, how easy it is to do things!

Jiang Xiaobai said: "Our grain and grass are enough to support a few days?"

Niu Xuangu said: "Half a month at most!"

Jiang Xiaobai nodded and said, "Within half a month, we must cross the river! Otherwise, we will collapse without a fight!"

Feng Yan exclaimed: "How can we get by? The other party is strictly guarded, we will definitely not be able to build a bridge, and it will be destroyed before it can be erected, if we talk about building a ship, the waves are so urgent, the small boat will capsize when it is put down, and the big ship will also capsize when it is put down, not to mention that there are only ten days, and we can't build many boats! Even if we don't capsize, the other party will stand on the shore and wait for work, in the words of the young master, we will not be able to go ashore!"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "According to what you say, we are doomed?"

Feng Yan suddenly had a plan, and said, "Why don't we take a detour to the Blood Lan Country! The bridge of the Blood Lan Country should not be destroyed!"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "Don't you know that I don't deal with the princess of the Blood Lan Kingdom?"

Feng Yan said, "We can sneak over!"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "We are 20 million people, not two people, so many people are stuffed in the crotch of their pants and brought over? Such a big thing happened in the Zhongxia Kingdom, how could the Blood Lan Kingdom not know that it was so easy to slip over? Besides, we starved to death before we slipped there. ”

Feng Yan was stunned: "Such a brilliant plan can't work, so how can you cross the river?"

Jiang Xiaobai ignored him, but looked at Liu Zhisheng and said, "The food in the city has been bought, and other things are not bad, right?"

Liu Zhisheng said: "Other things are not bad, although Han Yiba has money, he can't afford it, the food is on credit, and he doesn't dare to rob it, but we don't use other things, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, except for rice, everything else can be bought, but it's useless!"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "Firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, I don't want the same, I want cloth, buy cloth for me, buy me all the cloth in the nearby city, don't leave a single strip of cloth for them!"

Liu Zhisheng had long been accustomed to helping him purchase some strange things, so he didn't ask much, nodded, and said: "Don't worry, Master Hou, a radius of thousands of miles, I guarantee that within three years, they won't be able to buy some cloth to make pants!"

Feng Yan said: "Young master, what are you buying cloth for? Do you want to make us flower clothes? Wouldn't it be too ostentatious to wear such a festive dress before you win?"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "You can go jump into the river!"

Since Jiang Xiaobai led the army to camp on the side of the Fanlong River, although Li Minchao said it easily, he was also nervous in his heart, and he couldn't eat or sleep steadily, and sent people to spy on the military situation every day. When I learned that Jiang Xiaobai didn't do anything all day and was sending people to buy cloth every day, I was quite surprised, and my first reaction was, can cloth be eaten as food?

Thinking about it, whether it is steamed or fried, cloth can't be eaten as rice, and he is at a loss, and he can't guess Jiang Xiaobai's intentions even after racking his brains, so he doesn't believe that Jiang Xiaobai will have nothing to do to buy cloth to make clothes. One person counted the short, and the other counted the long, and hurriedly beat the drum to raise the account and ask the generals for their opinions.

The generals opened their minds, and one said: "I guess Jiang Xiaobai must want to use the cloth as a bridge, first find someone with good water ability to dive over, and then secretly tie the cloth belt to the boulder, so that the enemy can sneak over with the cloth belt!"

Li Minchao said: "Isn't it okay to use a rope? Why do you have to use cloth?"

Another general said: "There is a high mountain on the other side of the river, I guess Jiang Xiaobai must want to stand on the high mountain, tie one end of the cloth to a boulder, and then throw it to the other side of the river, so that the enemy can slide along the cloth belt!"

Li Minchao still said: "Isn't it okay to use a rope? Why do you have to use cloth?"

The general said: "The cloth is not easy to slip!"

Li Minchao said: "What kind of stone is thrown from such a high mountain and must not be broken into slag?"

The general said, "Maybe they've found a hard stone?"

Li Minchao said: "Jiang Xiaobai is not a fool, he doesn't know that we have put tens of thousands of people on the riverside to watch day and night, how can he watch them slide down?"

The general said, "What if Jiang Xiaobai didn't think of this?"

Li Minchao said: "Maybe if Jiang Xiaobai thinks that we are all fools, can't we just build a bridge here?"

The general received the ridicule, his face was ugly for a while, and his heart was angry, and he said in his heart, if he didn't think twice, he would regret it. If you don't listen to Lao Tzu, you will suffer in front of you!

Except for the mocking general, everyone else couldn't guess what Jiang Xiaobai wanted to do when he bought cloth? One general even said that Jiang Xiaobai must be poor in donkey skills and disheartened, and he was ready to hang himself collectively when he came back from buying cloth!

Li Minchao gave him a blank look, if he wasn't his brother-in-law, he would really behead him, and he would be embarrassed. When he was in an irritable mood, he threw the generals out of the tent.

For the general, this feeling is uncomfortable, knowing that the enemy is playing conspiracy, but he has never been able to figure it out, that feeling is like knowing that his wife is cheating, but he can't catch the evidence, it's too scratchy.

After a few more days, Jiang Xiaobai still didn't move, not only Li Minchao was anxious, but Niu Xuangu was also anxious, and hurriedly came to Jiang Xiaobai and said, "Master Hou, when will you cross the river?

Jiang Xiaobai said: "How many days can it last?"

Niu Xuangu said: "For three days at most, we don't dare to eat enough now, our stomachs are full of water, and we run away!"

Jiang Xiaobai sighed: "It's up to people to make things happen, it's up to heaven to make things happen, I'm waiting for God's will!"

Niu Xuangu said: "What if the intention of the day has always been like this?"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "Then you can only resign yourself to fate!"

Feng Yan said: "Young master, anyway, you are the head of the bandits, why don't we do our old business and go to the nearby city to rob it?"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "Those are the people's rations, and you can't bear to do it?" Besides, a city is only two or three hundred thousand households, and the grain has been collected again, and there is not much left in each family, we are 20 million soldiers and horses, and you can search from house to house, and you can last for a few days? If this matter is known by the Lengyan Palace, I can't afford the consequences, no matter when, the rules can't be messed up!"

Feng Yan said: "Isn't there a flower fairy!"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "Do you really think of others as your young grandmother?"

Feng Yan smiled and said, "As long as the young master works harder, it shouldn't be a problem!"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "Get out!"

Niu Xuangu's face was black, thinking that these two people could really pull hard, and such a serious matter could also be involved in women, so he said: "As long as you are happy!" turned around and left.

Jiang Xiaobai found that the people around him now love to use this sentence, and there are many people who use it, he feels that his ears are piercing, and he is embarrassed to say it again, looking at his back, and sighing.
