Chapter 2246

When Liu Mingzhi went to pass on the message to the soldiers of the Forbidden Army, he took time to ask about food and grass.

"Jiang Aiqing, how is the collection of the first batch of food and grass going? Is it going well?"

Jiang Yuanming hurriedly handed the memorial in front of Liu Mingzhi: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the old minister is going to report this matter to His Majesty when he enters the palace this time.

The old ministers have united with the Ministry of Officials to send letters to the wealthy state capitals near the border to collect food and grass on the spot.

Today, [-]% of the prefectures in the world know about the humiliation of three thousand of my people being massacred in two small barbarian countries.

There were many responses to His Majesty's decision to go out to fight against the barbarians.

The first batch of grain and grass collected was enough to supply 50 troops for three months, and all of them are now on the way to Ganzhou and Suzhou.

As soon as the armies of the various ministries move, the food and grass can go out of the customs first.

Guarantee that my expeditionary space army will not be embarrassed by the matter of food and grass, let alone the problem that food and grass will be difficult to support.

Now the second batch of grain and grass is being mobilized in Jinling, Suzhou, Qingzhou, and Yanzhou, [-] rich and prosperous prefectures.

In less than two months, all of them can be shipped to the western frontier.

The veteran said earlier that even if he tightened his belt and gnawed sweet potatoes for ten years, he would definitely raise enough food for His Majesty.

Please let your Majesty down, my Great Dragon Army can go on an expedition without any worries.

If there is any mistake in the grain and grass, the veteran will sacrifice his head to apologize with death! "

"Okay, I feel at ease after listening to this!"

"Your Majesty, I will see you, long live long live!"

While speaking, Liu Chengzhi had already led a group of officials into the palace!
"Free admission, thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Everyone, take your seats too, and wait for Mr. Lu to enter the palace!"

"According to the order!"

All the officials walked towards their seats, bowed and knelt and sat down. After Liu Mingzhi took Jiang Yuanming's book and put it away, he tightened the jade belt around his waist, and looked quietly towards the palace gate.

Escorted by ten imperial guards, a figure gradually appeared at the foot of the steps outside the Palace of Qinzheng and climbed towards the gate of the palace.

Lu Feng looked at the majestic and majestic Qinzheng Hall in front of him, his eyes were scarlet, and he took out the dragon flag from his arms and slowly unfolded it, holding the dragon flag high with both hands and walking slowly towards the hall .

Looking at the civil and military officials in the second class, Lu Feng fixed his eyes on Liu Mingzhi who stood in the middle of the hall and looked at him in a daze, and knelt down with a plop.

"Grassman Lu Feng pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor, long live long live."

Liu Mingzhi stared blankly at the dilapidated dragon flag in Lu Feng's hands, and turned his gaze to Lu Feng's body.

Looking at Lu Fengshuang who was skinny and skinny, Liu Mingzhi's eyes ached, and he rushed back to Dalong from Dashi, a thousand mountains and rivers away, what kind of hardship did he have to endure to become like this?

It was a miracle to be able to come back alive!

"Free! Free!"

"Xiao Chengzi, give me a seat!"

"Yes!"

"Master Lu, please sit down!"

"Grassman Lu Fengshuang, thank you Your Majesty, long live long live long live long live!"

"Xiao Chengzi, immediately ask the Imperial Dining Room to cook a bowl of beef soup and serve it with some easy-to-drink food!"

"According to the order!"

When Lu Feng sat down on his knees and completely showed his appearance in front of all the officials, there was an uproar.

Seeing Lu Feng's emaciated appearance with double 'sharp-mouthed monkey cheeks', all the officials were filled with regret, and had the same idea as Liu Mingzhi.

It was a miracle to be able to come back alive!
"Lu Feng Shuang!"

"The grass people are here!"

"How is your health? Can you handle it? If you can't handle it, rest for a while. I and all the ministers can wait. If you are in good health, I will tell you in detail what happened to the caravan in Dashi and Tianzhu.

I and all the ministers need to know the specific situation! "

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the grass people are safe."

Liu Mingzhi nodded silently, walked up to the dragon platform, picked up warm tea and walked towards Lu Fengshuang.

"Drink a cup of tea to moisturize your throat, and speak slowly!"

"The grassroots dare not!"

"It's okay, just drink it if you let me. You are a citizen of Dalong and a citizen of Zhen. Drinking my tea is a matter of course."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Lu Feng drank the warm tea gratefully and tremblingly, then knelt down in front of Liu Mingzhi again holding the teacup.

"Your Majesty, the grassland people are suffering, please make decisions for 740 merchants, [-] fathers and brothers!"

"Get up! Get up!

Now I have assembled my army and prepared for war, and I am ready to send troops to attack the barbarians of the two countries at any time.

Don't worry, I won't let them forget about the bloody enmity of more than 3000 people.

As long as anyone who is stained with the blood of my Dalong people counts as one, I will never forgive them lightly! "

"Your Majesty is holy! Your Majesty is holy!"

"Get up, let's talk about what happened first, how did you cross the border of Dawan Kingdom, and go deep into the borders of Dashi and Tianzhu to conduct trade?

What about Anxi?What is the reason why the letter didn't have time to elaborate?

In detail, I am not afraid to wait! "

"Your Majesty, this matter has to start from last May."

"I already know that your eighteen merchants did not catch up with Haining Hou and set sail. Let me explain in detail why your caravan entered the Western Regions and why it went deep into Tianzhu."

"Yes!

That was after Cao Min's father and the other seventeen merchants received the customs clearance documents.

Originally, our combined caravan planned to go to Xinfu or Beifu to sell the goods in our hands.

However, Dong, Chu, and Feng. The owners of the nine merchants believed that there were officials and merchants from the imperial court in these two prefectures, and they had already rushed to trade with many private caravans.

We delayed for more than two months, and it was too late to go again. Firstly, we were afraid that the goods would not be sold, and secondly, we were afraid that the price would not be met.

Later, after discussing with eighteen merchants, they decided to go to the countries of the Western Regions for trade.

After all, with the customs clearance documents in hand, and more than 3000 people from our [-] families, we can go to the Western Regions for business without any scruples.

The eighteen families hit it off immediately, and immediately left the border with the customs clearance document, and rushed to the countries of the Western Regions with a large amount of goods!
At the end of August, we arrived at Gumo Country in the Western Regions.

The goods we brought were very popular, and about half of the goods were dumped in Gumo, Loulan, Cheshiqian, and Kucha.

Later, under the guidance of translators who knew Chinese from the Western Regions, the caravan continued westward.

Until about [-]% of the goods were sold in the Xiuxun country to the east of Dawan country, under such circumstances, the remaining goods should be sold cheap and returned home as soon as possible.

Later, for some reason, my father and the others learned from another caravan from the Western Regions that there was a powerful country that was not recorded on the map to the west of Dawan Kingdom.

Caomin's father and the others got together to discuss, and then they planned to continue westward with the remaining goods, and try to sell the goods in their hands at a high price.

If the rumors are wrong, sell the goods cheaply in Dawan country, buy a batch of high-quality horses from Dawan and sell them back home.

Your Majesty also knows that the imperial court horse administration has always received as much as it has for high-quality war horses.

With this thought in mind, the caravan went west to Dawan Kingdom again.

We originally wanted to go to Ershi City, the royal city of Dawan Kingdom, to inquire about the news of Dashi Kingdom, but we did not expect to meet Dashi, businessmen from Tianzhu and Tianzhu on the second day after entering Dawan Kingdom.

The caravans of the two countries immediately took a fancy to the remaining goods with some defects in our caravan. Because of the existence of the translator from the Western Regions, they quickly negotiated a price that both parties were very satisfied with and sold the goods.

Later, the owners of several businesses suggested that it is better to follow the caravans of these two countries to Dashi, and the caravans of Tianzhu and India to visit their countries.

See if you can buy some rare goods and ship them back to Dalong for sale.

Originally planning to find the king of Dawan Kingdom and buy a batch of Dawan horses, Caomin's father and the rest of the owners were immediately moved.

Under the conversation of the translator from the Western Regions, the caravan leaders of the two countries welcomed us to go to their countries for trade.

Then the caravan bought another batch of good quality goods from the Western Regions, and followed the caravans from the two countries to the cities of the two countries.

Later, under the recommendation of Aham and Uji, the caravan leaders of the two countries, we successively dealt with the city lords of the two borders, and were introduced by the city lords to the lords of the two countries.

But we didn't expect that in a country with such an approachable caravan, their lord would actually rob our caravan of gold, silver, treasures and goods, and even send soldiers and horses in the city to slaughter our brothers.

In the end, only Caomin escaped by chance. "

After Lu Fengshuang finished speaking, two lines of tears flowed down from his eyes.

However, none of the officials present, including Liu Mingzhi, had the intention of ridiculing, and some only had anger and resentment.

Liu Mingzhi lowered his head and pondered for a while, then looked suspiciously at Lu Fengshuang who was wiping away his tears.

"The caravan of more than 3000 people is joined by 500 merchants, and there are at least [-] guards who are good at it.

Could it be that the combat power of the soldiers and horses in the cities of these two countries is so powerful that the guards of your caravan were captured without any resistance?

Even if you three thousand ordinary merchants rose up to resist, you shouldn't be the only one who came back, right?
Is there any other reason here? "

"Your Majesty is holy.

The grass people don't know when the kings of the two countries reached a secret agreement, intending to divide our caravan into two, enter the borders of the two countries for trade, and then enter their royal city to accept the hospitality of their kings.

Halfway through the banquet, they poured an unknown type of poison into the wine!

Caomin escaped the catastrophe because it was convenient to go out. After Caomin noticed something was wrong, he witnessed the poisoning and death of his father and various patriarchs outside. After Caomin secretly left, he immediately summoned the caravan's guards.

The soldiers and horses in the city of Dashi King began to chase and kill the caravan brothers who did not enter the palace for the banquet.

But they are not familiar with the place, the caravan guards cover the grassroots rushing out of the palace, and after killing out of the palace, there are only 20 people left.

Along the way, he was like a lost dog avoiding the pursuit of the soldiers and horses of the Dashi Kingdom.

In order for the grass people to bring the news back alive, the caravan guards gave up all the water and food to the grass people, and selected the last five experts to escort the grass people to the countries of the Western Regions.

When we arrived at Yumen Pass, the last guard, in order to give food and drinking water to the grass people, also..."

"The other half of the caravan assigned to Tianzhu was also slaughtered?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I heard that after they were poisoned, they didn't even wake up, so they were killed on the spot. The rest of the brothers who were scattered in the city were even burnt alive after being arrested."

Liu Mingzhi's fists were crackling, and he slammed the floor hard: "Shameless barbarians, extremely hateful!

If I don't take revenge, I will be an emperor in vain! "

"Your Majesty, please be my father and be the master of the three thousand brothers who died tragically!"

"Military Department! Did the guards, General Ma, pass on the letter recently?"

"Report to Your Majesty, you can go to the capital within three days!"

"Immediately pass the decree, the deputy commanders and deputy generals of all the troops and horses will prepare for the battle. After receiving the letter, the army will immediately set out and rush to Ganzhou to join forces!"

"Old minister obeys!"
