Chapter 571 [The Great Drought in the North, Hidden Murder] Four
The secret letter also mentioned that the victims had begun to flock into the city in large numbers, and many victims had begun to cause trouble in the city, some were stealing things, some were robbing the road, and even some were robbing the house. Officials such as Wang Zhizhen could not distinguish these people.
Is it a disaster victim or a person sent by Li Zicheng? Although he caught some people, he still dared not execute him easily, for fear of causing greater riots, so please make a decision.^^ Go and read the latest novel^
After Mu Linfeng read the secret letter, he knew the difficulties of Wang Zhizhen and others and knew the clues. These victims who caused trouble were naturally unknown actions that the victims were so hungry that they could not make. But Mu Linfeng believed that most of them must be
It is done by people with bad intentions, and even the things done by disaster victims are likely to be deceived by these people.
Mu Linfeng had just thought of a way to let the victims go out of the city by themselves, so he called Kong Wu and asked him to prepare thousands of large jars like this to find someone to transport them to the four counties in northern Jiangsu. He immediately sent a secret letter.
Let Kong Wu hand it over to Wang Zhizhen to Qiyue.
The letter was delivered to Yangzhou first. After Wang Zhizhen opened it and read it, his face immediately changed, and then he laughed and said, "A clever plan, a clever plan..." and handed the letter to Shi Kefa and Wu Sangui for reading.
After reading it, Shi Kefa and Wu Sangui both laughed and said, "Only the prince can think of such an idea!"
After Wang Zhizhen put away the letter, he smiled and said, "Mr. Wang has said a long time ago that the prince is different from ordinary people, it's a pity..."
Wu Sangui was puzzled when he heard this: "The prince has solved the problem for me, what's the pity?"
Wang Zhizhen shook his head and didn't say anything, but listened to Shi Kefa laughing and said, "Mr. Wang is still worried about the prince's support for the current emperor, right?"
Wang Zhizhen still smiled but said nothing when he heard this. Wu Sangui smiled and said, "Mr. Wang is overly worried. The prince does this, and he has his own considerations. We are subordinates, so we should not interfere with the prince's idea.
yes!"
When Shi Kefa heard this, he immediately said, "Sangui's words are up to the point!" Then he whispered to Wu Sangui and Wang Zhizhen, "Didn't you see the changes in the prince in the near future?"
Wang Zhizhen and Shi Kefa both heard this and shook their heads and said they didn't know, but listened to Shi Kefa and said, "Shi said too much. I can only say that the prince is now the prince and no longer the Mu Shuai used to be. He will talk and do things in the future.
, You should be more careful! Don’t do things that you think the prince doesn’t know, but you think it’s good for the prince. You should know that sometimes it’s backfire…”
Wang Zhizhen remained silent when he heard this. He heard that Shi Kefa's words seemed to have other meanings. Wu Sangui didn't seem to hear Shi Kefa's meaning, and hurriedly bowed and asked, "Sir Shi, since he has already said this, why don't he explain it thoroughly?"
Shi Kefa smiled and shook his head and said, "As a colleague, Shi has already said what he should say. He said this. He must be responsible for what he does... Shi said something more, and there is a saying that is good, but he is not here.
If you don’t do your job, you’d better do your duty in some things. Doing more will only make you mistakes. ^^ Go and read the latest novel^"
Wang Zhizhen listened to Shi Kefa's words and never spoke. Wu Sangui didn't say much when he saw Shi Kefa. He knew that he would ask again, but Shi Kefa wouldn't say much, so he had to think about it himself.
Two days later, thousands of large jars were transported from Nanjing, and Kong Wu personally escorted them. Wu Sangui took the lead in greeting Kong Wu at the Jiangkou, and then transported the jars into Yangzhou City. Kong Wu was on the way, watching
Thousands of victims in the suburbs of Yangzhou were lying on the roadside, and they couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
Kong Wu came this time, in addition to transporting large jars to Wang Zhizhen and others, he also had another task, which was to help Mu Linfeng inspect the relief situation in the four counties.
Wu Sangui said that since Yangzhou is Jiang in the south, Fengyang in the north, Huaian in the east, and Luzhou in the west, it was also blocked by the sharing of the three counties, which were much more serious than Yangzhou in those three counties.
When we arrived at the south gate of Yangzhou, Kong Wu saw that there were also disaster victims next to the gate of Yangzhou, both young and old, and some children did not even have a piece of clothing to cover their bodies. They were so thin that they were already skinny that they were not closed at this time.
According to Wu Sangui, there is no need to close the situation, because there are more victims in Yangzhou than outside the city, and there is no difference between closing the situation or not.
The victims began to see a convoy coming, and they all came up to surround the team. Some even climbed onto the carriages. They saw that thousands of carriages were carrying empty tanks and had never seen a grain of food before, so they gave up.
After entering Yangzhou City, Kong Wu saw the victims lying on the road everywhere in the streets and alleys. When the children saw a carriage passing by, they all opened their eyes wide and looked around. The old people squinted their eyes and looked at it. It was obvious that it was.
They were so hungry that they had no strength to move anymore. When the young men and the men saw the carriage coming, they ignored the obstruction of the officers and soldiers and went forward to watch. Just like outside the city, they saw that there was no food, and returned to the side of the road in disappointment.
Kong Wu asked the big tank to unload the big tank next to the city tower in the south city and let the soldiers guard it, but only sent a few hundred people. After all, the big tank was not food, and he was not afraid of disaster victims coming to rob it.
Wu Sangui led Kong Wu to the front of the government office in Yangzhou. Even at the gate of the government office, dozens of victims were lying. There was no sound of horse hooves coming from a distance. Kong Wu turned his head and saw a young man in his hand.
He held a steamed bun and ran while gnawing, followed by a group of teenagers with torn clothes chasing, and behind him were the cavalry of Yangzhou.
Seeing this, Kong Wu hurriedly said to Wu Sangui beside him: "A child just snatched a steamed bun, is it necessary to make a big fuss? 1⑹k novel ｗαр⑴⑹kCＮ sorted out"
Wu Sangui smiled and shook his head without saying anything. He then led Kong Wu into the yamen. Wang Zhizhen and Shi Kefa were both waiting in the government office. When he saw Wu Sangui leading Kong Wu in, he bowed and said, "General Kong!"
After Kong Wu returned the gift to Wang Zhizhen and Shi Kefa, he immediately said straight to the point: "You all have read the secret letter sent by the prince!"
Wang Zhizhen immediately said: "I have seen it, and the food is ready!"
Kong Wu nodded and said, "Now the big jar has been delivered, so start planning now!"
After Kong Wu said that, seeing Wang Zhizhen's face looked embarrassed, he asked quickly: "The prince has already figured out the solution for you, what are the difficulties?"
Wang Zhizhen bowed and said, "There is a solution, but unfortunately there is not much food anymore. I'm afraid that the victims will still enter the city if they don't take long..."
When Kong Wu heard this, he immediately asked the three of them to take him to see how much food there was in the granary in Yangzhou. Wang Zhizhen, Shi Kefa, Wu Sangui and the other two led Kong Wu to the granary outside the suburbs of Xicheng. There were also disaster victims along the way, and the granary was in the granary.
There were also all around, but the granary was guarded by heavy troops, and the victims did not dare to make trouble easily. Occasionally, one or two people were arrested immediately.
Kong Wu went into the granary and looked at it, and found that as Wang Zhizhen said, there was indeed not much left in the food, and I was afraid it would not last for a few days.
Wang Zhizhen said to Kong Wu at this time: "If you cook the porridge a little thinner, you may be able to last a few more days..."
Kong Wu immediately waved his hand and said, "No, the prince had already given instructions. If the chopsticks are inserted, the heads are falling, who dares to test the law with his body?"
Wang Zhizhen's face changed when he heard this and he hurriedly said, "That's what Wang said, but if the food has not been shipped yet, I'm afraid I can't even drink the porridge soup!"
