The Reborn Duke of Ming Dynasty

Midsummer season.The color of the day will be much longer.It's just too late now.The sky was already dimly bright.

Now it is on the tower of Yangzhou City.Hundreds of soldiers and civilians guarding the city are resting.And those enemy troops under the city.There was also no movement.It's just that there are a few people patrolling around their camp.

All around, except for the snoring of people resting in the distance.All there is is the sound of birdsong coming from all around.It's just that this atmosphere does make people who are still awake feel a sense of silence.

Zhang Fan is such a person who is still awake.Not that he woke up early.Instead, he couldn't sleep at all.

Before.Wang Meng, Liang Chao and others have come here many times to persuade them.I want him to go down the tower to have a good rest.But Zhang Fan finally rejected them.stayed on the tower.Now the only people who are still awake on the tower are Zhang Fan and a few defenders who keep an eye on the movement of the enemy below the city.

Zhang Fan didn't know what was going on.No sleepiness at all.Although his body is already very tired.Always reminding him that he needs a long rest to recover.But Zhang Fan couldn't fall asleep anyway.sit on the floor.Leaning against a wall.Zhang Fan just rested like this.

After all, it was his first time confronting the enemy in person.After stopping now.I suddenly feel very scared in my heart.After calming down just now.The excitement before has receded like a tide.And all that's left is deep fear.This is not actually a sign of cowardice.After all, no one in this world wants to die.

but.Wait until this wave of fear recedes again.Zhang Fan felt a different feeling in his heart.Think of the previous battle.At that time, his whole body was in a state of excitement.Although he had never held a sword in his hand before to kill an enemy on the battlefield.But that feeling.The pleasure of killing others at any time.And the kind of situation where you are in danger all the time.There is a sense of nervousness that may lose your life at any time.It really makes people feel a little helpless.Now Zhang Fan can somewhat understand the feelings of those who always want to go to the battlefield.Especially those soldiers who went straight to the battlefield.This feeling is really fascinating.People can't help but want to experience it again.

"Um……"

Sudden.A dream sound coming from Zhang Fan's side woke him up from his chaotic thoughts.Zhang Fan turned his head and looked around.I saw Yingyue sitting beside her.He was sleeping soundly with his head on his shoulder.Yingyue has a strong temper.What is shown is also stronger everywhere.Even in front of Zhang Fan.He also refused to let go of this strength.Be strong everywhere.But at this time.Yingyue, who was sleeping soundly, seemed to let go of all the burdens in her heart at this moment.There is no longer any disguise on the face.Showed her truest side.

In Zhang Fan's opinion.Today's Yingyue doesn't have a bit of a tragic experience.And the temperament is strong and stubborn.Today's Yingyue looks like a naive little girl.It's no different from ordinary people.What's unique about her is that she doesn't have the affectation of a rich family.No.It cannot be said to be the daughter of a rich family.Even the women from ordinary families in the Central Plains are not as free and easy as Yingyue.This may be because Yingyue was born in the southwest.After all, that place is not dominated by Han people.Where do ethnic minorities with various ethnic groups live.It doesn't matter whether these people in the Central Plains or the court say they are rough or uncivilized.In Zhang Fan's eyes.They are naive.

But what Zhang Fan saw in Yingyue now.It is this innocence.Looking at Yingyue's face.Zhang Fan didn't know why.All of a sudden it calmed down.At this time, all kinds of situations between him and Yingyue from the time they met to the present suddenly appeared in his mind.In this short period of half a year.But it is so memorable.And it also made Zhang Fan so calm.

Gradually.Zhang Fan was finally able to close his eyes.Fell asleep.

"My lord. My lord. Wake up."

There was a shout.There was a soft push and push.Zhang Fan slowly opened his sleepy eyes.woke up.

Zhang Fan who just opened his eyes quickly closed them again.I don't know how long he has been asleep.It was already daylight.The glare of the sun shone over.Make him feel uncomfortable.and.Zhang Fan woke up.The senses of the body also recovered again.moment.A heat wave stimulated his whole body.In addition, he is still wearing that thick armor now.There was a feeling of sweat.

"Liang Chao. What's the matter?" Zhang Fan shook his still confused head.After seeing the person in front of him clearly.asked.

"My lord. I'm here to ask you to eat." Liang Chao replied.

"Dinner. What time is it now?" Zhang Fan heard his words.Get up quickly.asked.

"Brother Fan, you finally woke up." Yingyue who was on the side saw Zhang Fan wake up.Walked over quickly.Said with a mischievous expression. "Big slob. The sun is drying my butt. I'm still sleeping. What if the enemy comes over at this time. What can I do?"

After Zhang Fan heard Yingyue's words.His expression suddenly became a little weird.Talk about reflecting the moon.When he woke up, he was back to what he was before.Not watching any scenes.If it's just the two of them here.It didn't matter what she said.On the contrary, it can make Zhang Fan feel happy in his heart.But now Liang Chao was in front of the two of them.Yingyue is still so carefree.This made Zhang Fan feel that he had completely lost his face in front of his subordinates.

Liang Chao beside him was not a fool.His ears had automatically filtered out Yingyue's words.I looked down.See no sound ahead.Only then did he raise his head again and said, "My lord, it's already noon. The people below the city have already prepared meals. They have brought them here." Liang Chao was talking.The hand holding the food box reached out.

Zhang Fan took it.Opened and ready to eat.Now is not the time to be fussy.I also don't care about washing up after getting up.After all, the situation at this time is different from the past.Keep it simple.only.Zhang Fan found out.The current meal is obviously much better than the previous one.The ingredients are also richer.

"By the way, Liang Chao. How is the food storage in the city?" Zhang Fan suddenly remembered such a thing.After all, this food problem is something that must be vigilant.In addition, there are tens of thousands of people in Yangzhou City.Zhang Fan naturally wanted to take care of it.and.If something really went wrong.Zhang Fan also couldn't settle down to eat this bowl of rice.

"Your Excellency, please rest assured." Liang Chao seemed to have done the investigation long ago.As soon as Zhang Fan asked the question, he spoke directly. "This Yangzhou is originally located in the south of the Yangtze River. It can be regarded as a rich land and a land of fish and rice. There is a lot of food in the city. It is no problem to supply the people in Yangzhou alone for more than a year. Although there are more in the city now There are quite a few people. But the food stored in Yangzhou City can last half a year at least. In addition, the adults have already said it clearly before. It should be distributed according to the number of people in the city. How much should be given out. Then Wang Dezhao dare not have any selfishness. So now the people in the city have no problem with food. It's just..."

"Just what." Listen to Liang Chao's last twist.Zhang Fan's thoughts that had been put down for a while just now rose again.Quickly asked.

"My lord, the grain stored in the grain depot in this city is just flour." Liang Chao said. "But now. The gate of this city has been closed for almost a whole day. It is difficult for the people in the city to eat meat now. When I went down the tower just now, I saw that you can see it everywhere in the city even on weekdays." The dogs are gone too. It is estimated that they all entered the stomachs of people."

After Zhang Fan listened to what Liang Chao said.Some speechless.He was not suffering for the tens of thousands of people in the city.It's just that there is no meat to eat.It really makes people feel uncomfortable.originally.These common people seldom eat meat.Zhang Fan remembered when he lived in Qingyang Mansion and Anhua County.The people there rarely eat meat.Although there are a lot of grazing there.Meat is not very expensive either.But not many people eat it.But here is different.This Yangzhou city was originally located in this prosperous place in the south of the Yangtze River.common people.Even ordinary people.There is also a meal of meat every three days.In addition, there are still people from Songjiang and Suzhou in this city.This problem is more serious.

But fortunately.Meat is not something that people have to eat.It doesn't matter if you don't eat for a few days.

"That's right. Liang Chao." Zhang Fan took a few mouthfuls of food.It was as if he suddenly thought of something again.asked. "Do the soldiers and common people on the tower have any meat to eat?"

Liang Chao understood Zhang Fan's meaning as soon as he heard it.people.Naturally, one can live without eating meat.But if you don't eat meat.Naturally, there is no strength.Especially those who are in charge of guarding the city today.If you have no strength.Then how can you go into battle and kill the enemy?

"My lord, please rest assured." Liang Chao said. "The soldiers in the city have meat to eat. No one said anything to the people. It was the people who took the initiative to send the little meat."

"That's good." Hearing that the problem has been solved.Only then did Zhang Fan feel relieved.Finish your meal quickly.

Take a sip of cold water.Cleared away the dryness and heat on the body.Zhang Fan's eyes couldn't help looking outside the city again.

"Brother Fan, do you think they will call again?" Yingyue asked beside him.

"It will definitely." Zhang Fan said. "I just hope they will be a little later. As long as today is over, General Qi's men will arrive."
