Not only is there a lot of food in the Zheng family's warehouse, but it is also all polished rice and noodles.

In addition to food, there are also various teas and condiments in the warehouse.

Yu Xiaolian immediately fell in love with the pile of old gingers. The old gingers could be used to make ginger soup for the people to drink. It couldn't be better.

In addition to Old Jiang, there was a lot of air-dried meat in another storeroom of the Zheng family, including pork and hare meat, and some meat that Yu Xiaolian didn't recognize in its original form.

Dried meat hung all over the roof of the warehouse.

Seeing the rows of clay pots on the ground, Yu Xiaolian opened one casually, which contained snow-white lard.

In addition to lard, there are dozens of jars of pickles and a cellar of good wine!
Yu Xiaolian decided to only use old ginger and pickled vegetables. Old ginger is used to make ginger soup, and pickled vegetables can be made into pickles.

Let the grassroots drive the ox cart in, put a jar of pickled vegetables and old ginger into the cart, and ask the old man left behind by the Zheng family to write down what she took, and Yu Xiaolian hurried back.

She didn't plan to take the grain. She drove the car out by herself that day, and then pulled a cart of grain back, saying that she brought it back from the Zheng family's grain depot. No one would verify her under the current situation.

"Xiao Lian, those pickles are for dinner, so...you give them pickles?" Gao felt that it would be good to give those people porridge.

Yu Xiaolian said, "Don't forget, there are not only refugees in Yangcheng, but also the strong people who stayed to guard the city. If they are not fed enough, how can they have the strength to defend the city?"

Yu Xiaolian frowned, "The porridge for those old people can be thinner, but those who defend the city must eat dry food, success or failure depends on it, if the barbarians break through the city, then all our food will go into theirs Stomach."

If you don't eat for nothing, who knows if this city gate can be defended?

The original maids and wives in the Su Mansion were few, only three maids and two wives. The five of them did the cooking for Min Zhuang and the yamen servants these days. Mrs. Ge, the old man who sells vegetables in the market, has already run away with Mrs. Ge when she hears that there is going to be a war.

Hu Jun hadn't come yet, but Yangcheng was getting more and more empty. Su Jingchen asked Li Wenyuan to count. In addition to those who defended the city, there were less than 1000 people who took refuge and those who stayed behind.

In other words, the total number of people in Yangcheng is less than 2000.

What else do you eat?eat together!

Yu Xiaolian turned the big pot of rice into a super big pot of rice. In just three or four days, the county government's grain storage plummeted.

Yu Xiaolian asked Su Jingchen to find an excuse and borrowed the grass roots, and then the two of them drove the ox cart together, went around the Zheng family compound, found a remote alley, and smoothly replaced themselves in advance. Good bags of grain were brought out.

In addition to rice and yellow rice, Yu Xiaolian also took a lot of corn dregs and rice beans.

Cooking rice beans with corn dregs is very hungry, and the taste is also very good.

"Okay, I won't be able to pull the cart with the ox anymore!" Under Su Jingchen's stop, Yu Xiaolian stopped.

If it wasn't for the fear of being caught as a monster, Yu Xiaolian felt that she could support a whole city.

The two walked back, yes, they were walking, the car was full of food, and there was no place for them to sit.

"It's been so many days, and Hu Jun hasn't come yet, did the king of Linzhou change his mind and decide to defend Linzhou?" Yu Xiaolian asked as he walked.

Su Jingchen shook his head and said, "In order to expand the situation, the king of Linzhou will definitely lose Linzhou.

He should be waiting for an opportunity! "

Linzhou is Jun Mobai's fiefdom, and he definitely doesn't want Linzhou to be robbed by Hu Jun. Although it is inevitable to lose the city, Jun Mobai has a plan when he loses it and how long he loses it.

"Is there any movement from General Li?" It stands to reason that Li Guangpu should already be on his way to support at this time.

Counting from the day when Fu Tong passed through Yangcheng, Li Guangpu should have arrived in Yangcheng by now, but Su Jingchen asked He Jian to scout in the direction of Jinzhou several times, but he didn't see any reinforcements, which is really strange!
"No!" Su Jingchen's heart was heavy.

If he can't wait for reinforcements, then everything he is doing now will be in vain.

Su Jingchen and Yu Xiaolian brought a cart of grain back to the county government office. While people were unloading the grain into the granary, Yu Xiaolian was still making bugs, turning a bag of corn crumbs out from time to time. Su Jingchen, with his hands behind his back, turned sideways Let Yu Xiaolian block it.

After the truckload of grain was unloaded, Caogen looked at the stacks of tall grain bags and couldn't help but sigh, "This old cow is really strong. He can bring so much grain back at once!"

Su Jingchen and Yu Xiaolian looked at each other, guilty of not speaking, they walked out hand in hand.

The next day, before dawn, He Jian came to knock on Su Jingchen's door.

"My lord, the city of Linzhou is broken, and the king of Linzhou is bringing people here!"

"Go and stop King Linzhou halfway and let him bring people in through the south gate!" They have already set a trap at the north gate and reinforced the city gate, waiting for this day.

"Yes!" He Jian responded, and the next second he flew into the air and disappeared on the spot.

Su Jingchen whispered while putting on his clothes, and said to Yu Xiaolian, who was awakened, "After the king of Linzhou comes, you must not take things out of the space again. If you need anything, you should prepare it in advance!"

Yu Xiaolian nodded, "I see, you wear more, it's very cold in the middle of the night!"

"You... Be careful, I'm afraid there are Hu people's spies sneaking in in Yangcheng." Su Jingchen warned worriedly.

Yu Xiaolian got up in a daze, "Then I'll go to Jinghua's room, if you need anything, go find me there!"

Su Jingchen nodded, "As long as the city gate is not breached, there shouldn't be any danger for the time being, but I'm afraid that someone will do something secretly.

Be careful in the kitchen these few days, don't let strangers get in, even if it's the king of Linzhou, you have to ask clearly! "

Yu Xiaolian asked while getting dressed, "Will the King of Linzhou bring food when he withdraws? If he doesn't bring food, we can't afford to feed so many people!"

Su Jingchen had already walked to the door at this time, "Don't worry about the food, the king of Linzhou should come from elsewhere to adjust the food."

Su Jingchen went into the night alone, and Yu Xiaolian also took advantage of the hazy moonlight to walk quickly to Su Jinghua's room.

Su Jinghua also woke up at this time, it can be said that He Jian's voice woke up the entire backyard of the county office.

Yu Xiaolian blew out the candles in the lantern, and Su Jinghua lit the candles on the table.

"Sister-in-law, is the barbarian really calling?" Su Jinghua panicked.

"It's the king of Linzhou who is here, and the Hu people probably won't come after him so soon."

The purpose of the Hu people's war was not to annihilate Great Liang, but to enrich their supplies. Presumably, after they captured Linzhou City, they should first transport the looted supplies back to the Hu country.

Moreover, Yu Xiaolian didn't think Hu Guo had the strength to dare to chase him all the way to Yangcheng.
