Chapter 386: One Hundred Thousand Stones of Military Food
The Jin Kingdom currently has a huge food shortage. Three hundred thousand dan is just a conservative figure for the Jin Kingdom, but it is too astonishing for Huang Qianshan.
In ancient times, one stone was equal to 120 jins, and 300,000 dans equaled 36 million jins of grain. On average, if one million people lived, each person would have 36 jins! For real Nv, only this much grain could barely guarantee the needs of the Jin Kingdom and allow the Jin Dynasty to grow.
The whole country can spend this winter! But it is too much for Huang Qianshan, and it is impossible for him to provide so much food.
"Third Prince, it is indeed too much! If there is His Majesty's decree, 300,000 dan is nothing, but without His Majesty's decree, Mr. Huang would not dare to use so much military rations." Tong Guan next to him also frowned.
.
"I wonder how much Master Huang can provide?" Wanyan Zongfu said.
"Probably only 50,000 shi of food can be provided!" Huang Qianshan thought for a moment and gritted his teeth.
"What effect can such a small amount of food have?" Wanyan Zongfu asked anxiously.
"This is the limit of what I can provide! Moreover, I only give you so much for the sake of Lord Tong! What you want is really too much. If I really give you that much food, what if?
If someone impeaches me, I can't explain it to His Majesty!" Huang Qianshan said.
"Master Huang, please be more accommodating!" Wanyan Zongfu begged.
Such a small amount of food cannot alleviate the crisis of the Jin Kingdom at all, and the Jin Kingdom will have big troubles by then.
"Impossible!" Huang Qianshan shook his head.
No matter how Wanyan Zongfu pleaded, in the end Huang Qianshan only agreed to give him 50,000 shi of food. Even so, Wanyan Zongfu had to express his gratitude, and even Tong Guan had to say that he owed Huang Qianshan a favor.
After they came out, Tong Guan thought for a while and said: "Third prince, don't be too anxious. In this way, I can get 30,000 shi of food from the army! You can go find the cultivation master. Maybe they can get some from the army."
Food is coming!”
Wanyan Zongfu said in surprise: "Thank you, Mr. Tong!"
Tong Guandao: "You're welcome, Liangshan is a traitor. Our two families must cooperate sincerely to eliminate all these traitors."
Speaking of this issue, Wanyan Zongfu became worried again and said: "Your Majesty the Emperor has rejected my request. He is unwilling to cooperate with us. When the time comes, only we ladies will actually send troops, and I am afraid that we may not be Liangshan's opponent."
Tong Guandao: "I will discuss with Zhong Shidao, and we will find a way to send troops! If we can win the battle by then, your Majesty will definitely reward you! But if we are defeated, I am afraid that I will not be able to escape the blame."
Wanyan Zongfu was overjoyed and said: "Don't worry, Mr. Tong, if you and I cooperate, there will be no problem in defeating Liangshan and taking back the sixteen states of Yanyun!"
Tong Guan was ready to discuss the march with Zhongshi Dao, so he and Wanyan Zongfu went to Jingyuan City. A few days later, Zhongshi Dao also agreed to provide Wanyan Zongfu with 20,000 shi of military rations, and Zhongshi Dao also made a decision to march eastward.
decision.
Until now, Wanyan Zongfu was slightly relieved. Although he only received 100,000 shi of food, he could at least solve the food crisis to a small extent. He hoped that his father could also get some food from the Xixia people and spend it like this.
It is still possible this winter! As for the purpose of uniting the Song Dynasty, it has been barely achieved. Although the Song Dynasty court has no plans to march, the Western Army has promised to cooperate. If the Western Army attacks Yanyun by then, it can also reduce the nv
Real pressure.
It snowed again in the north, and Wanyan Zongfu headed north with one hundred thousand shi of grain. The amount of one hundred thousand shi of grain was so large that the number of trucks transporting grain alone reached thousands, and Zhongshidao also dispatched
A thousand soldiers followed them to collect grain.
After arriving at the boundary of Fuzhou, the governor of Fuzhou, Zhe Keqiu, actually sent 10,000 people to follow them to escort the grain northward. Wanyan Zongfu was overjoyed. He thought that with so many troops escorting the grain, they would not touch them along the way.
The danger is too great.
Their route was to go west first, avoid the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, and then go north to enter the territory of Jin Kingdom.
However, after leaving Fuzhou and walking for two days, Wanyan Zongfu discovered that they were heading east, and Wanyan Zongfu felt that something was wrong.
"Come here, call Mr. Zhe!" Wanyan Zongfu said. He would go to Yanyun after the festival and became a member of Yue Fei's men. This time something like this happened, Zhe Keqiu sent Zhe Yanwen over.
, and asked Zhe Yanwen to rob Zhenren’s military rations and transport them to the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun.
Zhe Yanwen strode over. He looked at Wanyan Zongfu and said with a smile, "Third Prince, what do you want?"
Wanyan Zongfu said: "We should be heading west, why are we heading east now?"
Zheyanwen said: "There is a road to the east. It is snowing now and it is easy to pass there, so go there."
Wanyan Zongfu frowned and said, "The further east you go, the closer you are to the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun. Will there be any danger?"
Zhe Yanwen laughed and said: "This is still the place where my family is, don't worry, there will be no danger."
They walked for another day, but they were still heading east, and they didn't encounter any major roads at all. Gradually, they saw the frozen Yellow River in front of them. This time, let alone real ladies like Wan Yan Zongfu, even if they came with them
Zhong Jiajun felt something was wrong.
"Come here, go and invite Mr. Zhe!" Wanyan Zongfu said hurriedly.
But this time after his people went there, they didn't come back for half an hour. Wanyan Zongfu was shocked and immediately felt something bad!
"No, the Zhejia are just trying to covet our rations! Quick, get those Zhongjia troops ready, we have to protect the rations and go north!" Wanyan Zongfu shouted.
Up to now, Wanyan Zongfu has not connected the Zhejia Army with Liangshan. He thinks that this is because the Zhejia Army is greedy for military supplies and wants to hack them. In fact, it is not surprising that he has such an idea. There are many factions in the Western Army.
Although Zhong Shidao is the official manager in name, in fact he cannot directly command the Zhe Family Army. There are also many conflicts between the Zhe Family Army and the Zhong Family Army. It is also common for the Zhe Family Army to secretly do some small tricks.
At this time, shouts of killing suddenly came from the distance, and tens of thousands of Zhejia troops were already attacking the Zhongjia army. These Zhongjia troops were distributed around thousands of grain trucks. On the one hand, they dispersed,
On the one hand, there is no preparation. How can such a Zhong family army be the opponent of Zhe family army?
"What are you going to do?" A general from the Zhong Family Army shouted loudly.
"Put down your weapons obediently, we won't kill you! We are all members of the Western Army, and we are not willing to take action against our colleagues!" Zhe Yanwen walked up and sneered.
"Where are the three princes of the Jin Kingdom? How are you going to treat them?" asked that kind of family general.
"Of course we can't let them go! Now, I'm afraid they've all become hedgehogs," Orihiko Wen said.
In fact, at the same time that they were attacking the Zhong Family Army, hundreds of Zhe Family Army soldiers were also attacking Wanyan Zongfu and others. These Zhe Family Army soldiers all held divine arm crossbows in their hands, and fired countless bows and arrows in an instant.
Come on, Master Nv fell down immediately! Master Nv only had a short knife in his hand, facing such a powerful crossbow
Without the ability to react at all, Wanyanfeng roared forward and was already shot to the ground. Wanyan Zongfu was anxious and angry. He hid behind a large car, but not long after, countless soldiers rushed from behind.
When they came up, these soldiers did not use crossbows again. They wanted to capture Wanyan Zongfu alive this time.
