"Hurry, go back quickly." General Lin Shen became anxious.
If you throw away the food and grass, it will be fine and you will be beheaded, but the whole family will definitely suffer at the hands of General Zhu. Can you not be anxious?
"Yes." The subordinate responded hurriedly. He also knew the serious consequences if something happened to the food and grass.
He was so anxious that he stumbled and threw the two bowls of leftovers he was carrying so far away that he had no time to pick them up. He crawled to the south of the city. The people on the road didn't know where they got the news. They only said that the government was in the south of the city.
Distribute food.
These uncles, aunts and ladies who came from the countryside rushed to the south of the city with sacks and baskets.
General Lin Shen and his subordinates were among the crowd, listening to everyone's discussions.
Someone said: "There are notices posted everywhere. People who have no food at home can come to Yongshui Town to get food. It seems that the new emperor is a good emperor who cares about all the people in the world. He actually values the lives of the people so much. Thank you."
Someone answered: "How many months old is the new emperor? It must be the Queen Mother's intention. Now the Queen Mother is holding the new Emperor and listening to the government behind the curtain."
"How can the Queen Mother have any real power? It should be the order given by the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister is a good official!"
General Lin:
He and his subordinates were wearing ordinary clothes, so no one could tell who he was, so they stopped a man carrying a load and asked.
"Where did you see the government notice? You can go to the south of the city to get food?"
"It's posted everywhere in every village and town." The man replied as he glanced at General Lin. Seeing his gorgeous clothes, he reminded him, "Sir, if you rich people have something to eat and drink, don't go there, otherwise
If someone reports you, all your property will be confiscated, here, this is the notice."
The man enthusiastically took out a notice from the basket and handed it to General Lin, then squeezed into the crowd and left.
Lin Shenjiang unfolded the notice in confusion, and when he saw the content, it turned out that he was calling refugees from all over the country to come to Yongshui Town to receive food.
Where did the rations come from in Yongshui Town? Wasn't it the batch of military rations he escorted?
After reading the notice, General Lin Shen began to sweat on his forehead. He didn't know who the hell was that posted this notice and dared to encourage these people to come and seize food.
"Master General, what should we do?" The subordinate looked at the people arriving one after another and asked General Lin in a low voice with a pale face.
"How do I know?" General Lin Shen was at his wits' end. With so many people coming to get food, he couldn't kill them all.
What's more, if these unarmed common people were killed, wouldn't it discredit the new emperor, the queen mother, Prime Minister Zhou and others? Water can carry a boat and it can also overturn it. Who can sit on the throne without the support of the people?
"I don't know who is plotting against us." Lin Shenjiang was so angry that his fists almost burst into flames.
"Who knows? Maybe he's from the Night King." The subordinate scratched his forehead and guessed, "Only he has a reason to do such a thing. Without food and grass, General Zhu, no matter how powerful he is, can't win this battle.
"
"That must be the case." General Lin seemed to suddenly realize it, and couldn't help but narrow his eyes, "Maybe the avalanche blocking the way was also caused by the Night King's people, and we fell into the Night King's scheme.'
After wiping his sweat and remaining silent for a while, Lin Shenjiang paused.
"This notice is stamped with the official seal of the county government office. You should go to the county government office quickly and invite the county magistrate to come and explain it clearly to everyone. Maybe it can be undone."
"Yes, I'll go right away." The subordinate took the order and left in a hurry.
Lin Shen continued to head towards the grain and grass camp with her heart trembling. At this time, she met someone returning here carrying loads of grain.
Many people were still decorated, but their faces were full of joy, and they shouted loudly to the poor people who came like a tide.
"Go quickly, there is a lot of food over there, everyone go and get it."
"Yes, once you get the food, your family will be saved and you won't have to starve to death."
"Although there are people on guard who are not allowed to take food, didn't everyone come here after reading the government's notice? We are not breaking the law."
"Yes, the official seals are all genuine and will not break the law."
"I'm going to go too, the fake one, instead of starving to death and fighting for my life."
Upon hearing these calls, all the people began to respond enthusiastically with arms raised.
"Get food, we need to get food."
“Give us food so we don’t freeze to death and starve to death.”
"Shouldn't the court open warehouses to store grain when the people are suffering from disaster? Otherwise, what is the use of such an emperor?"
The refugees who were getting food were shouting loudly as they rushed toward the food truck. Lin Shen was wrapped in it and was sweating.
In the distance, I could see the grain truck ahead, but I saw that a massacre had already occurred over there.
The people who were collecting food and the guards were pushing and arguing.
"Back off, back off, these are army rations, you can't steal them." The guard captain warned loudly, "If you dare to come near again, you will be killed without mercy."
Some people argued loudly and threw the removed notices at the guards.
"We all came to get food after reading the notice, why didn't you allow it?"
The guard captain looked puzzled after reading the notice and didn't know what to say.
Lin Shenji was rolling and crawling towards the guard captain and said to him: "Quickly, help me onto the roof of the carriage."
"Yes." The guard captain hurriedly squatted down and let General Lin Shen climb onto the roof of the grain truck on his shoulders.
The roof of the car was covered with snow, and Lin Shen was pulling at the bone-chilling snow until his hands were red from the cold, but he couldn't care less.
After getting on the roof of the car, he stood down and explained loudly at the top of his lungs.
"Common people, you have been deceived. This notice is fake."
"The grain trucks parked here are transporting military rations. Because the snowy slope ahead blocks the way, we are waiting here for the road to clear.'
"These grains are the rations for the millions of troops stationed in Luozhou. If you rob them, they will starve to death."
"And among these soldiers, there may be sons of uncles and aunts. Can you bear it?"
These people are all honest, honest and kind-hearted people, and they all calmed down after hearing these words.
In addition, the imperial court has been recruiting soldiers for many years, and many people have sons serving as soldiers in the military camps. Those soldiers who work hard on the battlefield may have their own sons. Who can bear to let them not even stutter?
Lin Shenjiang saw that a few words had worked, and his face looked better.
"Don't fool us, the official seal on that notice is clearly genuine." At this time, someone in the crowd loudly questioned, and as soon as these words came out, the crowd became excited again.
Lin Shenjiang hurriedly pressed his hands down to comfort him, "Everyone, calm down, calm down. Whether that notice is true or false will be known later. I have already sent someone to invite the county magistrate. When he arrives, you can ask him.
Has such a notice ever been issued?"
The people looked at each other in shock, and no one dared to violently grab food, waiting to ask the county magistrate whether it was true or false.
Lin Shenjiang was already soaked through his clothes at this time, and he only felt cold. However, he did not dare to relax and kept saying things that could resonate with everyone to gain sympathy.
A Qin, who had been observing the movement here from a distance, looked at the shadow with a hint of worry in his eyes.
"What should we do? The people seem to be frightened and don't dare to take any more food.'
"Don't worry, I have a backup plan." Shadow looked calm.
