Qiu Chuji and others suffered only flesh wounds. As long as the arrows were pulled out, it would be no big deal. Moreover, food and grass matters were of paramount importance, so of course they would not have any objections.
Murong Fu then sent people to invite Zhou Zhiruo, Zhang Sanfeng, and other leaders who were not present.
When everyone gathered in the hall, Murong Fu glanced at Wang Yuyan, who said politely, "The Murong family has spent countless manpower and material resources to raise a batch of grain and grass, and it has now arrived near Nanyang."
She emphasized the words "countless manpower and material resources" very seriously, which was a habit formed under the influence of Murong Fu.
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but be overjoyed, "This is a good thing. What we lack most right now is food and grass."
Some people are more clear-headed and say, "How can we use the food? There are Mongolian Tatars outside. It is not easy to transport it in."
Others were more curious, "How much grain and grass did the Murong family bring in this time?"
Everyone was asking questions, and Wang Yuyan pursed her lips, summoned up her inner strength a little, and said in a loud voice, "Don't be anxious, everyone. We are summoned today to discuss a way to transport grain and grass into the city."
Her voice was soft, but there was something ethereal about it. As soon as she opened her mouth, everyone couldn't help but shut their mouths.
Wang Yuyan continued, "The quantity of this batch of grain and grass is enough to maintain the operation of Xiangyang City for three months, but it is impossible to transport grain and grass into the city at once under the eyes of the Mongolian army, so I, the Murong family, decided to
A small portion will be given priority to be transported into the city to meet urgent needs, and the rest will be diverted to the Han River and entered the city by water."
When everyone heard this, they were both surprised and agreed. They were surprised that the Murong family could obtain so much food and grass, and were really rich as a country. They agreed that she did have a better plan.
Qiu Chuji said weakly, "So, Master Murong, do you want to send fellow martial artists to take care of this small amount of food and grass?"
Murong Fu nodded slightly, "Yes, you all know the situation in Xiangyang City. It is difficult to safely deliver even a small amount of food and grass to the city. Last time, my Murong family was able to safely enter the city because they took the Mongols by surprise. This time
But it’s not that easy, I have to rely on you a lot.”
"What's there to say? Who can just watch our food and grass fall into the hands of the Tatars? In the past, that old man Lu Wenhuan would pretend to be mysterious every time, for fear that we people would leak the secret. As a result, the Tatars would get it every time they transported food.
go."
"Who says it's not the case? This is exactly what Mr. Murong should be like, working together as a team. With so many people crowded together, why are you worried that you can't come up with a perfect plan?"
The people below were talking a lot, and even dragged Lu Wenhuan out for comparison.
Of course, there are some people who are quick-thinking. It is not difficult to guess Murong Fu's plan. He even came to discuss with them after he had already made up his strategy. Was it to discuss some perfect strategy? Obviously not, he simply wanted them to contribute to the food supply.
But even if they understand this, so what, can they not go to pick up the food?
Murong Fu waited until everyone had finished speaking before he said, "Although the amount of food and grass distributed this time is only a small half, it is still a large amount, and coming from Nanyang, it is bound to pass through many strongholds and posts in the Mongolian camp, so I plan...
…”
Before he finished speaking, a Lingxiao Pavilion disciple hurried in, leaned over and said something in his ear, and then handed a piece of cloth to him.
When the heroes saw this scene, they all looked a little confused, but Guo Jing's expression changed drastically and he stared at the cloth.
Murong Fu took it and saw that the strip of cloth seemed to be torn from the corner of a certain piece of clothing, and the material looked familiar.
After Murong Fu glanced at it for a few times, his face suddenly became extremely cold, and then he became furious. However, when he flipped his wrist, a wave of air surged instantly, and a white ball of light about half a foot in size condensed in his palm. He raised his hand and waved it.
The ball of light flew out at lightning speed, and its target was Guo Jing.
This turn of events was truly unexpected. No one present could react, or even if they reacted, it would be of no avail. In fact, the energy and strength carried by the ball of light was simply suffocating. Except for Zhang Sanfeng, as long as the skin was scratched, I'm afraid
All were seriously injured.
In the midst of the lightning and flint, Guo Jing's elbows were slightly lowered, and he used the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms to fight against him. However, in a hurry, he couldn't bring up much strength at all, and even the power of the Dragon Subduing Palm could only reach his hand, and the ball of light was close to him.
In front of him, he had no choice but to reach out and greet him.
With a "bang", the Dragon Subduing Palm was smashed into pieces like paper, and then two teeth-piercing crunching sounds were heard. Guo Jing flew backwards, and when he landed on the ground, he vomited a large mouthful of blood.
One arm was already weak and hanging down.
Everyone stared blankly at Murong Fu, wondering why he suddenly attacked Guo Daxia.
Lu Youjiao was the first to react, jumping up and pointing at Murong Fu, "Murong Fu, what are you doing?"
Only then did the others come to their senses and hurried to help Guo Jing, but no one dared to question Murong Fu like Lu Youjiao did.
Zhang Sanfeng frowned and said, "Little friend Murong, if you can't talk about anything properly, you have to take action."
Murong Fu didn't even look at these people, his extremely cold eyes never moved away from Guo Jing. After a long time, he took a deep breath and said coldly, "Guo Jing, how brave are you to lie to me?
"
Guo Jing sighed slightly and remained silent.
This time everyone was even more puzzled. What happened to make Murong Fu so angry that he did not hesitate to fight, but Guo Jing actually acquiesced, as if he deserved to be beaten.
Wang Yuyan was also very curious. From time to time, she glanced at the cloth in his hand and asked in a low voice, "Cousin, what happened?"
Murong Fu glared at Guo Jing fiercely and threw the cloth on the table. Everyone hurriedly stretched their necks to look at it, and then they discovered that there was a sentence clearly written in blood on the cloth, "If I want Huang Rong's life, give me twenty
Ten thousand stones of food and grass will be exchanged for it.”
"This...this..." After everyone read it, they couldn't help being surprised. They looked at each other and were speechless for a long time.
Murong Fu turned his head and asked Wang Yuyan, "How much grain and grass are shipped this time?"
Wang Yuyan replied, "No more, no less, exactly two hundred thousand dan."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked again. Qiu Chuji said, "So, wouldn't it mean that the Mongolian side has already known the news about the grain and grass?"
For a time, no one cared about Murong Fu beating Guo Jing anymore.
"Two hundred thousand stones of food and grass is a huge target and cannot be hidden at all. Mongolian spies have penetrated deep into Xiangyang, so it is not a surprise to learn this news." Zhou Zhiruo said calmly.
Murong Fu ignored everyone's words and looked at Guo Jing again, "Don't you want to explain, Master Guo?"
Guo Jing's face was filled with bitterness, "What else can be explained? Guo was naturally very anxious after Chou Jing was caught, but if two hundred thousand stones of food and grass were to be exchanged for her, no matter whether others agreed or not, Guo would not agree even if he died.
of."
As soon as he said this, everyone couldn't help but admire him. Everyone knew that he had a deep relationship with Huang Rong, and now that food and grass were the lifeblood of Xiangyang City, he could be so ruthless as to refuse the exchange, which could be described as truly selfless.
Of course, although his behavior can be admired by everyone in the world, it can't help but make women feel cold. This is the case for Wang Yuyan and Zhou Zhiruo in the hall. They suddenly sympathize with Huang Rong. How can they really be happy after marrying such a husband?
What?
Murong Fu suddenly said to the Lingxiao Pavilion disciple who reported the news, "Go and bring the people in."
Soon a Beggar Clan disciple was dragged in like a sack. His hands and feet had been broken, and there were more than a dozen holes all over his body. He could only breathe out, not in.
When Guo Jing and Lu Youjiao saw this scene, they were both shocked and turned to look at Murong Fu, "Mr. Murong, what is going on?"
Murong Fu sneered, opened his hand and shook it in the air, and the Beggar Clan disciple was lifted up in an instant, with his limbs hanging in the air. His face regained some life, and Murong Fu asked, "When did you discover this cloth?"
of?"
"Two...two hours ago." The Beggar Clan disciple said intermittently.
"Then what?"
"Then... I reported it to Gang Leader Lu and Daxia Guo. Daxia Guo took us out of the city to search, but couldn't find the whereabouts of Gang Leader Huang. Later, when he saw Gang Leader Qiu and others being surrounded, he went to rescue them first."
After hearing this, Murong Fu loosened his wrists, his energy dissipated, and the Beggar Clan disciple fell to the ground, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
Guo Jing checked his breathing and couldn't help but said in a deep voice, "Mr. Murong, what's the difference between doing this and killing innocent people indiscriminately?"
"Killing innocent people indiscriminately?" Murong Fu snorted coldly, "Just because you concealed military information and did not report it, it is already a capital crime. Don't you know that military law is strict and military aircraft are important?"
"I..." Guo Jing was speechless. Apart from other things, this banner was left by the Mongolian side. It was obviously a message to Xiangyang City. They kept it secret. It was indeed a serious crime of lying about military information.
.
Murong Fu asked, "Guo Jing, up to now, don't you still want to tell the whole story?"
Everyone else also looked at Guo Jing, and Zhang Sanfeng advised, "Guo Xiaoyou, at this point, you'd better tell the whole story. No matter whether you decide to replace someone or not, you should know the ins and outs, and you should know the pros and cons."
Guo Jing laughed miserably, "Actually, I knew that Zhuo Jing was in trouble as early as when Guo's father-in-law came back from injury. Later, when the disciples of the Beggar Clan showed me this piece of cloth, I realized that their target was the two hundred thousand stone.
Food and grass, but this matter would have no result in the first place, and Guo had no intention of making it public."
Murong Fu said, "You should know where Huang Yaoshi and Gang Leader Huang were in danger, right?"
Guo Jing shook his head, "Zhuo Jing was in a bad mood yesterday and asked to go out of the city to relax. Guo couldn't get away, so his father-in-law went with her. Guo thought at that time that with their martial arts skills and the white eagle accompanying them, even if
Even if you are in danger, you will never be able to escape. I never thought..."
"Confused!" Murong Fu glared at him again. He really wanted to slap him again, but there were so many people around. It would be difficult to explain if Guo Jing was beaten to death, so he had to swallow his breath secretly.
"Cousin, what should we do now?" Wang Yuyan asked. She knew the relationship between Murong Fu and Huang Rong, so she was more concerned about whether he would really exchange 200,000 stones of food and grass for Huang Rong?
