Chapter 1723 - Not enough food
"Oh? Do you still have this ability?" Jia Niganyuan asked as if he didn't believe it.
"Of course, but we also have to pay the price."
"Well, can I trust you?"
"Of course. When the time comes, the general will just send troops. We will attack from both sides. Xiping City will be yours, and King Huan will be ours. How about that?"
"Okay, let's do it!"
Jia Niganyuan was very excited. If he could, then he would be able to capture Xiping City just around the corner.
Now, the only thing I'm worried about is whether Lemazagon is reliable.
It would be good if it was reliable.
But if it's unreliable, then it won't be a problem?
Jia Niganyuan thought about it a lot and decided to give it a try. Anyway, he had originally planned to lead his troops.
"In this way, we agree that in the morning five days later, we will do it together."
"Can."
"Then this matter is settled."
"Of course, if we can work together to win Xiping City, that will be a great story. I will treat you to a drink when the time comes."
"Don't take it seriously. We will have many opportunities to cooperate in the future."
"That's right, China is so big, so we can get a piece of the pie."
"By the way, General, there is one more thing. I want to keep this person here for the time being. When you attack the city in five days, take her with you. After the city is defeated, you can hand her over to me."
Lemazagon said.
Jia Nigan Yuan had noticed Ling Moyan for a long time, but had been unable to ask questions.
"Oh? Who is this?"
"General, I found this person. She is going to be the wife of our leader, but it is inconvenient to take her with her now, so I ask the general for a favor."
"Oh, so that's it." As soon as Ganiganyuan heard this, his favorable impression of Lemazagon was greatly reduced. He could tell at a glance that he had stolen this woman.
Jia Ni Gan Yuan was young and energetic, full of blood, and could not stand this kind of activity, but then again, it had nothing to do with him.
"It's easy to say, you leave it to me, I'll have someone imprisoned in the cell." Jia Ni Gan Yuan said.
"No, it's better to take good care of her. Just don't let her run away."
What was it like in the cell? Lemazagon, until Ling Moyan was thrown there, she wouldn't be able to bear it for four or five hours, not to mention four or five days.
"Okay, whatever you say will be fine."
"Then I'll say goodbye."
"Okay, I won't give it away!"
In fact, Lemazhagong placed Ling Moyan here not only because it was inconvenient to carry, but also as a reminder to Jia Ni Gan Yuan, which means that I have placed my people here with you, so I won’t
I'm lying to you, Lemazagon expressed his sincerity first, and it's not like Ganiganyuan didn't know about it.
In this way, Jia Ni Gan Yuan felt more at ease.
After leaving Liangzhou City, Lemazagon wanted to rush back quickly, but when he arrived at Qingxi Lake, he found that there was not a single boat on the shore.
It's no wonder that Liangzhou City has been taken away by others. How can the people in the city dare to come out casually? Even the fishermen in the nearby villages stay at home and refuse to show up easily. In these years,
The war is in chaos, and no one will touch the bad luck.
"Great Elder, what should we do? There is no boat."
Several men searched around but couldn't find a ship.
Lemazagon took a look, it was still early, there should be a village nearby, and the people in the village must have boats.
"In this case, you guys go look for any small villages nearby. The people in the villages must have boats."
"yes."
Several of his men went out to look for a boat and spent more than an hour before reluctantly getting a boat from a fisherman in a village.
This boat was taken out of a lake ditch by a fisherman. It was in dilapidated condition, but it was still good and did not leak.
Even though they were still unwilling to give him, Lemazagon gritted his teeth and gave him ten taels of silver to get this boat.
The fisherman was quite happy and told him that he no longer wanted the boat. Lemazagon was almost furious when he heard that. Ten taels of silver was enough to buy a much better boat than this one.
However, now is not the time to care about things, we have to cross the river quickly.
Three days later, Lemazagon and the others returned to the south of Xiping City and met up with the rest of the people.
At this time, Jia Ni Gan Yuan had already set off from Liangzhou City with his people.
Only King Huan still stood still.
Originally, King Huan planned to take the initiative to attack Liangzhou City with his men, but later he delayed due to some unpleasantness with Yongmenzi Di.
Since that day, the two of them have not seen each other again, and more than half a month has almost passed. I can't stand still any longer. If Yongmenzi Di talks nonsense after returning to the capital, then I will be in trouble again.
.
King Huan now feels a little regretful. He should not have come to Xiping City. If he had known that this bone was so difficult to crack, he might as well have left it to other generals.
"Commander, the imperial envoy is here."
At this time, King Huan was drinking tea in his tent. When he heard that Yongmenzi Di had arrived, his face suddenly dropped.
"not see!"
As soon as King Huan finished saying this, the door of the room was pushed open, and Yongmenzi Di and Mai Jun walked in immediately.
"Commander, so many days have passed, why haven't you sent out troops yet?" Yongmenzi Di seemed to have nothing else to say, so he came in and asked this question.
"The time has come." King Huan was about to get angry, but he thought about it and held it back.
"Isn't it time? There are so many soldiers in the city, which consumes a lot of food and drink every day. If this continues, Xiping City will be empty!" Di, the Yongmen disciple, said angrily.
"Xiping City is extremely wealthy, so don't worry." King Huan said easily.
"Rich? Marshal, I would like to ask if you have visited the homes of the people in the city. Now the food and drink of the army are provided by the people in the city every day. There are many houses in the south of the city where the people are almost out of food. You have closed the city gates and prohibited the people from entering."
Going out of the city, several grain stores in the city are now empty. If this continues, do you want the people to starve to death?"
During this period, although Yongmenzi Di could not find out what happened when Shenwu Long Yangwei was appointed, he discovered another thing through visits.
That is, the people in the city are generally short of food.
Before Yongmenzi Di and others came, there were more than ten thousand soldiers in the city. These people had a lot of food and drink every day. Fortunately, Xiping City was rich and the official rations were enough.
But over time, Xiping City became a little stretched.
The magistrate of Xiping City has raised food and grass countless times, but it is still not enough. Later, he began to ask the people to raise food. Now, the people don't have much food.
