Hidden Blade Chapter 149: Say hello
()In the early morning, Ningjiao City is full of people.
This surging originated not only inside the city but also outside the city.
Xu Han, who had not fallen asleep all night, frowned and stood on the wall of Ningjiao City, looking at the more and more refugees who had gathered, with a gloomy mind.
After hearing the news, Ye Hongjian, Mr. Deer and others also rushed forward, and almost all of them didn’t close their eyes overnight.
“Palace Master.” At this time, the prefect of Ningjiao City, who was so fat that he could hardly walk, climbed to the top of the city with the help of two entourages. He also stayed up all night, his face was a little pale, but at the moment his face was full of flattery. When he came to Xu Han, his face full of flesh was almost crowded with an ugly smile.
“A total of more than 178,000 people have been counted.” He said, under Xu Han’s instruction, the more than 2,000 guards of Ningjiao City stayed up all night and finally counted the number of refugees. .
“Yeah.” Xu Han nodded, the expression on his face becoming more solemn. “Are they all fleeing from Jizhou?”
“Probably they are all.” The fat Taishou said, “Sword Dragon Pass has fallen, and Jizhou has fallen to such a big news, but the small one has not received a letter. I have sent someone to send this news to Chang’an quickly. I believe it will arrive soon.”
“Jianlong Pass is guarded by 200,000 herdsmen’s army, and there is also the king of northern borders, Muji. How can it be so easy to say that when you are occupied, you will fall, and the court has not received any wind?” Mr. Lu is there behind him. Shi frowned and said.
“This little one is strange? But when I asked the refugees, they didn’t understand, but that Xia Jun suddenly entered the customs. They also fled with the wind, how can I understand this.” The fat Taishou answered, in his heart. But he secretly figured out what to do if the little prefect of Dahuang City was also broken.
“This matter may be very strange, young master, I think we have to hurry up and get back to Chang’an earlier.” Mr. Lu didn’t expect much from the fat prefect. He turned around at that time. Looking at Xu Han, he said solemnly.
“Yeah.” Xu Han nodded. He knew that Mr. Lu was like his dead master, and he was full of common people’s righteousness. If such a big thing happened, the other party was naturally anxious.
But soon he seemed to have thought of something again. He turned his head and looked at the crowd at the gate of the city like a black ocean. The Tiance Mansion Army in white armor was sending rice to the people under the arrangement of Qin Keqing. Congee, but the number of people is really too large. I don’t know when this kind of turbulence will be finished. Moreover, the food that can be found in Ningjiao City is far from enough to feed so many people.
“Then what should these refugees do?” Xu Han asked in a deep voice.
At the exit of this question, everyone in the room cast their eyes on the fat prefect.
“Don’t be joking, sirs. It’s good for me to be self-sufficient in Ningjiao City. How can I pretend that there are so many refugees. Besides, there are so many in Jizhou, how can I be managed by a district prefect? “Seeing everyone looking at him, his expression suddenly changed, and he waved his hands and said.
Although this is just an excuse, the truth is not bad.
If Jizhou really falls, the number of refugees will definitely be far more than 170,000. Ningjiao City can’t hold it, and can’t support it. 170,000 food, shelter, wasteland, and a year before the harvest. Circumstances, the cost required is a shockingly huge figure. What’s more, given the situation of Dazhou in recent years, there is still no definite figure on whether it will be a bumper harvest or a grainless harvest in the coming year.
A group of people were obviously helpless when you looked at me and I looked at you.
Even Mr. Deer can only frown deeply at this moment, helpless. “Why don’t you leave it to me.” But at this moment, a bright voice suddenly sounded from the crowd. Everyone was taken aback and followed their reputations, only to see that the voice was actually the one from Tiandou. The young master of the city-Yue Chengpeng.
His voice made the leader Yu Xiao behind him a little dissatisfied and frowned, but in the end he didn’t say anything to stop him.
“Brother Yue has a way?” Xu Han asked in a deep voice. He and this Yue Chengpeng didn’t know each other deeply. They only exchanged news when they saw each other yesterday, let alone how to understand his character, at this moment. His sudden utterance was quite unexpected by Xu Han.
“Xuzhou is a land of fish and rice. Even though the years have not been very good, Xuzhou still has a good season. These 170,000 people have gone to Xuzhou. I don’t think it is difficult to want a certain livelihood. Besides, I My father and Xuzhou Mu has always made good friends, this face, I want to come to give it.” Young Master Yue said with a smile, seems to have a full grasp of this matter.
However, after seeing this half-day together, Xu Han still feels that this young master Yue is not marginal in doing things, and that 170,000 lives have been handed over to him, and he is somewhat uneasy.
So, he looked sideways at Mr. Deer to ask him what he meant.
Mr. Deer nodded knowingly, and stood up at that time, “Master Yue has a kind heart, and it is really fortunate for me to be able to do this. The prefect of Xuzhou has always had a reputation for loving the people, and this is not a big problem. It’s just that the journey to Xuzhou is far away, and the son has to take so many refugees, I am afraid that he will have to walk for a month. The troubles in this, the son can think about it.”
The 170,000 refugees are not as far away as the army. Not to mention the problems of civil commotions and departure from the army. It is how these 170,000 people are controlled, how to get their rations, how to transport them, and even where they are camped. Is the problem.
When I wanted to come to Mr. Lu, I was afraid that the son of Yue had a fever in his head to respond to the matter, but then he didn’t know how to do it, and he gave up halfway, squandering these 170,000 lives.
Who knows, after hearing this, the Grand Prince Yue just smiled, and said in a very free and easy way: “Mr. Deer can ask this, and he has already figured out a way if he wants to, teach me, Yue only Promise that as long as they arrive in Xuzhou, Yue will keep him safe.”
Yue Chengpeng’s remarks made everyone present stunned. The various performances of Yue Chengpeng before made everyone secretly think that this son of Yue is more like an unlearned son, but these words, It is clear to see through everyone’s mind. But he was not angry either, with such a temperament, it made everyone secretly ashamed of the “little man’s heart” that he had just speculated.
“Mr. Yue is serious about this?” Mr. Deer asked immediately.
“There is absolutely no falsehood.” Yue Chengpeng replied confidently.
At that time, the corners of his mouth were raised and his eyes were smiling. Although he still looked like a foolish man, he inexplicably made everyone’s heart stunned, and he was secretly disappointed by his demeanor at this moment.
……
Mr. Deer is not at a loss as the head of the three thousand Hongpao officials in Tiance Mansion. He arranged the migration of these 170,000 refugees in only two days.
First, he forced the fat prefect to lend out a thousand defenders, then bargained a bit, and finally took out the fact that he had four private homes to threaten and lure him to give him a seven-day ration of 170,000 people. . This is not a small amount, and the food and grass used by the refugees during the few days has taken away half of the grain depot in Ningjiao City.
Then, Mr. Deer divided the 170,000 people into several establishments. Each of the 1,000 defenders was responsible for more than 170 people, and issued a military order. If one person is lost for no reason, he has to ask the person in charge. In addition, more than three hundred people from the 1,000-day policy mansion army were assigned to **** the grain and grass, and this was considered to be a proper arrangement.
In the early morning of the third day, Xu Han and a group of people came to the gate of the city to bid farewell to Yue Chengpeng, who was about to take 170,000 refugees on the road.
After a few people greeted them, they wanted to say goodbye.
At that time, Mr. Lu pulled Yue Chengpeng aside and handed him a map, which outlined the route to Xuzhou on this trip. Moreover, a special mark was drawn on the four cities of Ningjiao, Yeming, Hu’an, and Liumu.
“This is the safest route for this trip. Please take Master Yue with you, don’t lose it.” Mr. Lu said.
“Thank you, Mr. I.” Yue Chengpeng took a closer look, and felt that Mr. Lu was extraordinary. Although this line is not the nearest, it is an official road along the way. Whether it is convenient or safe to walk, it is always up. Choice. But soon he found those marks and asked: “Just what do the marks on this mean?”
“This trip is a long way. The son of Yue brought only seven days of food and grass. How can you remove Ningjiao, and the remaining three cities of Yeming, Hu’an, and Liumu. When the son arrives, you can pick them up for nine days. Food and grass, just in case, but it is not desirable to spare the livelihood of the people in the city.” Mr. Lu said with squinting eyes.
That Yue Chengpeng was taken aback when he heard the words, and then he showed distress. “But I am a son of Tiandou City, how can I call the prefect of Liangzhou, if he doesn’t give it…”
“The cities that the old man picked for the son are small cities, but the reserves of grain and grass are extremely abundant. The most important thing is…” At this point, Mr. Deer paused, and a touch of the old face appeared. Ruowu’s smile. “The armament is much worse than that of Ningjiao City.”
“Mister means… but I am a person with a face and a face after all. If someone knows about this by then, the court will investigate it…” Yue Chengpeng’s face is still full of distress, but his eyes clearly reveal The color of cunning like a fox.
Mr. Lu glanced at this Yue Chengpeng lightly when he heard the words, and said lightly: “Mr. Yue is the son of Fairy Yue Jian, and he is upright and upright. Naturally, he can’t do such a thing, but my three-hundred house army is used to idleness. , Keep advising, and call the shots without authorization. What does this have to do with Mr. Yue?”
Hearing this, Yue Chengpeng’s face suddenly narrowed his eyes and smiled.
“Mister is a good strategy, a good strategy.” He sighed again and again, and everyone who looked aside didn’t know why.
At this moment, Yu Xiao, who was in charge of commanding and dispatching, walked over and told everyone that everything was ready to go on the road.
Yue Chengpeng heard that he was about to say goodbye to everyone, but at that time, Mr. Lu jerked down and bowed to him.
Yue Chengpeng’s expression changed when he saw this, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to help the respected old man, “What do you mean, sir, don’t betray the younger generation.”
“The son understands the great righteousness~IndoMTL.com~ for these 170,000 refugees, he deserves a tribute to the old.” Mr. Deer said so and insisted on paying homage.
Yue Chengpeng stopped fruitless several times, but he could only return a salute, and then he said goodbye to everyone, and led the mighty 170,000 refugees on the road to Xuzhou.
At that time, everyone looked at his leaving back and remained silent for a long time.
Only the Mr. Deer sighed deeply.
“The tiger father has no dogs…”
“Yue Fuyao has someone to succeed…”
After hearing the words, Xu Han looked at Mr. Lu and asked: “By the way, Mr. Yue, I just saw you and Mr. Yue had a very happy conversation, I don’t know what happened?”
At that time, the respected and respected minister in red robe, watched his nose and his heart, and replied calmly.
“Tell him to say hello to Yue Jianxian on my behalf.”
