V4.Chapter 36 (1/2)

Yanzhou.

Shen Zang Feng went back to the general's mansion after patrolling the camp. Just sat down in the study, not finished a document, but listened to a rush of footsteps outside the door, followed the door of the study was banged - Shen Cangfeng nodded slightly, Shen fold went to open the door, and saw Su Xiuming's old servant in front of him, Su Shuishui, sweating all over his head, stepped in, hurriedly said: ”three childe, please hurry to the main hall to discuss!”

Su Xiuming sent Su Xiuming to assist him in February after su Xiuwei led the 20000 Xiliang troops to Donghu for help. The emperor was worried that Shen Cangfeng would be young, and that there would be negligence when he sat in this eye joint bone and an important city. And Su Shuishui is the son of Su family. He said that Shen Zanfeng grew up by relying on his old age. He has always been a steady man. Otherwise, Su Xiuming came to Yanzhou with only one old servant and would not choose him from many children.

At the moment, Su Shuishui is so flustered. Shen Cangfeng's heart sinks. He puts down his pen, gets up and asks, ”but there's news from Donghu?”

Sure enough, Su Shuishui shivered her lips a little. Jane said in a short way, ”I heard that Liu family was defeated.”

”Ah!” Suddenly, Shen dieI didn't guard against the sound of low exhalation!

“…… Although Rongren claimed to be 300000, according to the previous return on horse hunting, it was only 240000 at most. How could Donghu's army and horse have been defeated when they had more than doubled and occupied the advantage of guarding the city?! Is there any mistake in the letter? ”

When Shen Zang Feng hurried to the main hall, he happened to hear a high voice from a ministry who was in a hurry, even angry.

The Ministry is called Liu Xi, a deputy general of the East Hu army, a branch of Liu's family, who attacked Yanzhou. After the collapse of Yanzhou, a part of the Donghu army returned to Donghu's home, while Liu Xi stayed and watched the Yanzhou's supplies for the Lius. Before the Yanzhou rebellion, the Lius had suffered enough. Even though they knew that Su Xiuming and Shen Zanfeng would not move any hand or foot against Donghu's supplies when the soldiers invaded, they were not sure how to leave their own people here.

Now in Yanzhou City, Liu Xi and Shen zangfeng are in charge.

I think it's because Liu Xi is the identity of Liu's family, so Su Xiuming first told him that he came more urgently, but he was a step ahead of Shen zangfeng.

”I would not have been defeated,” said Su Xiuming's guard outside the hall, but there was nothing on the eye bone to report. Shen Cangfeng entered the hall, but Su Xiuming's face was blue and his eyes were angry.

However, his anger was not due to Liu Xi's impertinence, ”but what if 80000 servicemen revolted?”

”What?!” Liu Xi exclaimed, including Shen zangfeng, who had just entered the gate, and stopped in amazement!

Shen zangfeng calmed down and asked, ”how can the serviceman turn against you?”

Although Yanzhou is adjacent to Donghu, it is necessary to transport the baggage of the city to all parts of Donghu, especially in the case of large-scale invasion by the soldiers, the number of servicemen used is extremely large. Because almost all the young and strong men of Donghu were conscripted into the army, they were usually drawn from the neighboring Youyan states.

This time, due to the emergency situation, even from Xinzhou, which borders Youzhou, as well as the northern part of Fengzhou and other places, a number of people were temporarily recruited for service.

Although it is said that this move causes more resentment among the people, it is better than being beaten in by the soldiers.

And in order to prevent the revolt of the servitude men, these people never give them enough food and weapons, but they are required to serve heavy corvee all the time, and they fall on the ground to rest almost at a slight rest. Rao is so, and there are also soldiers to keep an eye on - all these are for once they make trouble, they can easily send troops to suppress it!

Su Xiuming said: ”I don't know who spread Xinzhou's story to Donghu. Xinzhou's servant asked to go back to his hometown to protect his wife and children. These people haven't calmed down yet. The servants in other places are also called on to return home together. Liu's family killed the first few troublemakers. As a result, the scene subsided at that time. But in the middle of the night, Xinzhou serviceman suddenly made a mess, killed the Liu family to supervise their soldiers, robbed the horse blades, and fled to Xinzhou! But before these shameless and unruly people left, they burned the baggage that they needed to send to the front line in three days! ”

The thing about Xinzhou is as follows: this state is close to the sea and rich in marine products, so most of the population of the state lives near the sea. In April, there were hurricanes and huge waves on the sea. From the south to the north of the state, they almost swept all the way. In about a few days, they turned from a middle state that could barely survive to a hell on earth with ten bedrooms and nine empty skies. Even the state government failed to survive.

Not only that, after the disaster, it should be the imperial court or the government to relieve the disaster and exempt from the labor tax in order to recuperate the people. But in April, the first emperor was still aggrieved that his fengci water hall could not be rebuilt, and he could only build a Hanyuan building. How could he care about the life and death of Xinzhou people?

So Xinzhou is full of sorrow and no one cares.

Because the state yamen was destroyed in the hurricane, the state officials were buried alive in the collapsed houses, and the rest of the officials suffered from their own families, too late to care about themselves, who is impatient to manage the people?

In this way, the whole Xinzhou is a mess without a leader! In this case, some of the former liberties and scoundrels in the state gathered to take advantage of the fire and loot -- they were afraid of the government, but they tried to plunder money and goods and forcibly abducted the women of the people several times. Without the interference of the government, they became more and more courageous -- and in the first month, the army made a large-scale invasion, and most of the young and strong people in Xinzhou were recruited to Donghu to serve as laborers With the support and protection of the man in charge, there is no room to fight back under these hands!Of course, although no one is in charge of Xinzhou, Donghu also knows about it. But at that time, the soldiers had been in the city. In order to stop the confusion and influence the overall situation, Donghu ordered that this information be concealed from the Xinzhou servicemen.

But after a few months of concealment, it's finally punctured.

Originally, these people were reluctant to leave their families and go to serve in the bitter Donghu. It is true that they are afraid of the punishment of the court and the slaughter of the people after the army invaded the Central Plains, and they may not escape. That's why I have to bite my teeth.
