Chapter 741: The Famine Village

Jiang He was stunned by Zhou Jiwei's question, because Jiang He didn't know how to go on the road below, there was no map to use at all, and the neighborhood was so desolate, although there was a small village in front of him, but Jiang He didn't know where to go next.

Although the captain has a relationship with the people here, it is only related, and Jiang He has not found any maps on the boat, as for the people who have been here, let alone the people who have been here, let alone have them, because their activities are always in the process of being restricted. Therefore, Jiang He and Zhou Jiwei are probably rare exceptions.

"Anyway, let's go to that little village first. Jiang He said at this time.

"No, you're here to make a plan. Zhou Jiwei looked at Jiang He and said.

"Otherwise, do you know anything about this place?" Jiang He asked.

Zhou Jiwei shook his head.

"So, I can only adapt to local conditions, watch as we go, let's go. Jiang He said, and then the two of them came to the village, it was already late at night, naturally everyone closed the doors and windows, Jiang He scanned it with his divine sense, and the people in this place were quite weak.

"What are you looking for?" Zhou Jiwei looked at Jiang He's somewhat distracted look, and then asked.

Jiang He didn't say a word, he smashed the ground with a punch, and several corpses suddenly appeared in front of Jiang He. These corpses were obviously just deceased, but the appearance of the corpses could only be described as terrifying, thinking that the corpses were almost all covered with a skin.

"This ...... What's going on?" Zhou Jiwei asked, looking at the pit where the dead were buried.

Jiang He pointed to the white lime around the pit and said, "Do you know why this white lime is sprinkled here?"

Zhou Jiwei shook his head.

"This is to prevent wild dogs from eating the carcasses, and the lime can burn their noses, which is why they do this. Jiang He said: "A few people are buried, there is nothing, and there is only one pit to bury them, haven't you realized something?"

"Famine?" Zhou Jiwei said: "The reason why dogs are used to eating people is because they have nothing to eat but to eat these corpses, and the reason why these people are buried in a pit is that maybe there are few people in this village who have the strength to dig holes." ”

"That's right. Jiang He said: "The land here is not particularly barren, even if it is not rich, it is impossible to cause such a famine, although I heard about it before I came, but it is still quite shocking to see it with my own eyes, what Liao Jinsong that guy did is really more excessive than I imagined." ”

"Shouldn't all the food here be given to the army?" asked Zhou Jiwei.

"It's a long way from where the army is stationed, but it's not too far, and I think it's probably when the army requisitioned food, and took everything they could eat, and that's the only explanation. Jiang He said.

At this time, a door opened, and an old man walked over tremblingly with a crutch: "You two...... Why come to us?"

"Old man, we have no ill will. Jiang He looked at the old man and said, he estimated that the old man was awakened by the punch he had just made, and as soon as he got older, he didn't sleep very well.

"I don't care if you have malicious intentions or not!" the old man suddenly knocked on the ground with his crutch and said, "Get out of here, the people in this village are dying of hunger, we have nothing to give you, get out!"

The old man said, and then his body was hunched as if he could fall down at any moment.

"Grandpa......" At this time, a six- or seven-year-old granddaughter ran out, although she still had the strength to move around, but Jiang Heming saw her emaciated silhouette.

"Old man, I don't want anything here, you wait. Jiang He said, and then motioned for Zhou Jiwei to leave here.

"Hey, what are you going to do?" Zhou Jiwei looked at Jiang He and said, "The people in this place are so pitiful, we need to get them something to eat." ”

"Of course, that's all I have to do. Jiang He said at this time: "Let's go, go back." ”

"Where are you going?" Zhou Jiwei asked in a daze.

"Back there again, since it's a barracks, we can get that food out and give it to these people. Jiang He said: "It's a pity that my strength has not recovered, otherwise I wouldn't have to do such a troublesome thing." ”

"It's good, but I think it's better not to go back where you are. Zhou Jiwei said.

"Why?" Jiang He asked.

"Think about it, if the granary is stolen, then what will the general named Zhang Xiaodong think this time? He must think that some of us have a problem, and this will be bad for us, so even if it is stolen, we have to change places. Jiang He thought for a while and said, "There seems to be a city around here, let's go there." ”

Zhou Jiwei didn't say a word, and followed Jiang He directly to the city, the security in the city is not strict, the strictest place is the warehouse where the grain is placed, Jiang He noticed that the residents here are not as hungry and cold as the village, but every household has no surplus food.

Jiang He did not distribute the grain to the residents, because the next day someone would definitely find out about the theft of the granary, and if the officers and soldiers searched from house to house, the grain found would not only be confiscated, but also the whole family would have to be punished, so Jiang He still transported the grain to the village.

He can't save everyone, but he can do as much as he can.

......

"Lord Marshal, these are the leaders of the rebels!" At this time, several people were escorted up, and the person sitting in the military tent was Ma Yixuan.

Those few people looked at Ma Yixuan, there was not the slightest fear on their faces, they were very angry, and at this time, one of them shouted loudly: "Ma Yixuan, you kill me now, tell you, even if I am a ghost, I will not let you go!"

"Leave me alone? huh...... It's funny. Ma Yixuan said lightly: "A subordinate prisoner actually said that he would not spare me or something like that, is it that I, the commander-in-chief, have failed too much?" General Feng?"

Ma Yixuan said, looking at Feng Qianye standing beside him and said.

"You so-called peasant rebels really dare to say it!" Feng Qianye said fiercely: "How many villages have you looted along the way, how many people have you killed, don't you know yourself, you keep saying that what we have done is against the principles of heaven, is what you are doing is in line with the will of the people?"

Several people stopped talking, indeed, because they had been hungry, so they had a special greed for food and money, and whoever was able to join them, they would give them food and money, so it developed very quickly, but so much food and money needed a source, so they became bandits, to rob the rich and rich.

Those rich people who have money are not wrong, but they have not been let go, their money has become money from the wrong way, so those who have a good life have also been ruined.

"You didn't do better than us, and you can't beat us with your strength, that's why you failed. Ma Yixuan opened his mouth and said: "If you are allowed to take over this country, I am afraid that whether you are poor or rich, you will starve to death, you really dare to say that you are not against the principles of heaven, joke! Some people are stupid, they can't tell right from wrong, but you don't want to fool us with your own set." Pull it out and behead it for public display!"

Ma Yixuan said, and then those people were pulled out, and after a while, they heard a few screams, thinking that they had been corrected.

"Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, there will be a sentence in the end, I don't know whether to say it or not. Feng Qianye said at this time, obviously his expression was a little hesitant.

"Say it, you can listen to other people's words or not, I still want to hear your words. Ma Yixuan said, and then took a sip of the teacup on the table.

"We ...... Do you really want to do this?" Feng Qianye said at this time.

"What did you do?" Ma Yixuan asked as he looked at Feng Qianye.

"The reason why there are more than 100,000 rebels this time is because of the large-scale famine that occurred in the grain requisition, and the people have nothing to eat, so they will rise up, although what these people are doing is also unreasonable, but do we also have to think about it, if it goes on like this, I am afraid that it will ......" Feng Qianye said.

"What's the big deal? These people can't make any waves, so there's no need to worry. Ma Yixuan said lightly.

"But my lord, I've been to many places, and the people there are ......," Feng Qianye said.

"General Feng, do you think Your Majesty has done something inappropriate?" Ma Yixuan patted the table and said coldly.

"The last general would never dare to have such an idea. Feng Qianye said immediately.

"Soon we are going to march in a big way, naturally we have to raise enough food, we used to live in this state, although the people are a little bitter, but we are for the sake of long-term interests, the Honghai Empire, I have already found a good place to land, when the time comes, someone will pick us up, think about it, this world is about to fall into our hands, compared to this, what are these insignificant losses?" Ma Yixuan looked at Feng Qianye and said.

"Yes......" Feng Qianye said with his head down.

"Okay, this time you have a merit in destroying the rebels, I will speak for you in front of Your Majesty, you are also tired, go down and rest. Ma Yixuan said.

Feng Qianye nodded, and then walked out of the military tent, while Ma Yixuan finished the tea in the cup, and then a smile hung on the corner of his mouth.

Looking at the sky, Feng Qianye felt hollow, he didn't know why Liao Jinsong suddenly ordered a full-scale battle, but he knew that if he continued to do this, the number of people starving to death would be greater than before, he didn't want to see such a scene, but he didn't have a choice.

Isn't there a way to change this country?
