At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the competition for the deer in the world

Chapter 26 The World Has No Hunger
The battle of Dingyuan made Cheng De famous everywhere.

Chuzhou Yuan General Jia Lu, after hearing the news of Tulu's death, sat in his study for a day and a night, silently looking at the map of the territory of the Yuan Dynasty hanging on the wall, without saying a word for a long time.

a long time.

Jia Lu sighed: "Tulu's death, I cannot shirk the responsibility! But if this battle is lost, someone must take the responsibility, why don't you ask for guilt and resign and go home!"

After finishing speaking, Jia Lu wrote a memorial to apologize and resign, and then sent someone to Dadu.

Cheng De organized all the captured Yuan soldiers who had taken refuge in the newly established Flying Cavalry Battalion.

All the troops led by Zhang Qijiu, Feng Guoyong, and Feng Sheng were incorporated into the Flying Cavalry Battalion, and 100 people were drawn from the Personal Battalion to form a Flying Cavalry Battalion with 3000 people.

The Flying Battalion is directly under the command of Cheng De.

After completing these, Cheng De began to ask Feng Guoyong to be responsible for recruiting troops in Dingyuan.

The conditions for recruitment are the same as those of the Sizhou Army, and the treatment is also the same.

All of a sudden, young people with lofty ideals in Dingyuan City signed up enthusiastically.

three days later.

Study room of Wanhu Mansion in Dingyuan City.

"General, 3000 people have been recruited in the past three days!" Feng Guoyong looked at Cheng De and reported the recruitment situation.

Ok?
"Why are there so many?" Cheng De looked at Feng Guoyong suspiciously.

"Reporting to the general, many of them were farmers before, and because of natural disasters and man-made disasters, they couldn't survive by farming. Therefore, when they heard about the general's recruitment treatment, they all wanted to rush to become soldiers. If the general hadn't restricted the age, I'm afraid there will be more!" Feng Guoyong said with a wry smile.

Cheng De was silent.

Prosperity, people suffer; death, people suffer.

The common people bear almost everything!
"Is Dingyuan short of food?" Cheng De looked at Feng Guoyong.

Feng Guoyong hesitated for a while, but still said: "Reporting to the general, not only Dingyuan, but Sizhou, Xuyi, Haozhou, Chuzhou, etc. are all short of food!"

"Sizhou and Xuyi are also short of food? How is this possible?" Cheng De looked at Feng Guoyong in shock.

Feng Guoyong nodded, and then said: "When I was in Fengjiazhai, I sent people to check the harvest situation of some fields in Sizhou, Xuyi, Dingyuan, Haozhou and other places, but the results were not very good. This winter, I am afraid that many people will die!"

After hearing this, Cheng De couldn't help but change his face.

Suddenly, potatoes and corn came to Cheng De's mind.

Unfortunately, potatoes and corn are still in South America.

Far can't quench near thirst!
Cheng De thought, if there is an opportunity in the future, he must develop HNA!
Putting aside his thoughts, Cheng De asked again: "At present, how many stones are there in the granary in Dingyuan City?"

"There are still about 1000 shi. Now there are 8000 soldiers in Dingyuan, which can only feed for 15 days!" Feng Guoyong said.

How much food does Sizhou City have?
How much grain does Xuyi City have?
I'm afraid it won't last long!
After pondering for a while, Cheng De looked at Feng Guoyong and said: "Tomorrow I will take 7000 people back to Sizhou City and leave 1000 people in the pro-barracks. I intend to let you be the guard of Dingyuan City. When I return to Sizhou After Zhoucheng, a new military system will be implemented, and there will be another transfer for you at that time. However, I can tell you in advance, it is a good thing for you!"

"Yes, General! This subordinate must guard Dingyuan City well!" Feng Guoyong bowed and saluted.

"In addition, pay attention to Haozhou, send more people to lurk in to spy on the news, wait for me to make more preparations, and I plan to try to win Haozhou before the end of December! Regarding how to win Haozhou, when you are stationed on weekdays, You can also think about it more, if you have any good strategy, you can send someone to tell me urgently." Cheng De patted Feng Guoyong on the shoulder with a smile on his face.

"Subordinates remember!" Feng Guo's eyes lit up.

"By the way, your brother Feng Sheng, I intend to take him to the General's Mansion in Sizhou City to study for two years, and he usually handles some things by my side, just to beat him and grind his temper. I think, It won't be long before our Sizhou army will have another general who can fight well!"

"Thank you, General, for your cultivation of Ah Sheng!" Feng Guoyong said gratefully, kneeling on one knee.

"If you encounter an attack from the Yuan army, remember to send someone to rush and send the information to Sizhou City. I will definitely lead the army to help!"

"Subordinates obey orders!"

"1000 shi of grain in Dingyuan is enough to feed 1000 people for more than three months. As for the problem of food shortage in Sizhou and Xuyi, I will solve it."

Feng Guoyong nodded, but he was thinking about the problem of food shortage, how will the general solve it?
Really looking forward to it!
Then, Cheng De sent Feng Guoyong to select 1000 people from the pro-barracks.

Cheng De, on the other hand, was troubled by the lack of food, and stared at the territory map of the Yuan Dynasty for a long time.

Can't help but smile when I see those marked rivers.

There are many rivers near Sizhou City, so it's not too much to ask the people under your command to catch more fish and shrimps, make them into dried fish, and store food for winter, right?
Moreover, it may be possible to distribute the extra food to the people to reduce the number of people who die of starvation in winter.

It is cold in winter, and the people must be prevented from freezing to death, and the clothes must be kept warm.

It can be regarded as imported cotton with good warmth retention effect!
After taking Jinling in the future, we must send people to get some cotton seeds and cultivate them slowly.

However, this winter, what should the people do?

Cheng De frowned and fell into thought.

Without a clue, Cheng De went out in a micro-clothes and walked towards Dingyuan City Street.

Not far behind Cheng De, Zhang Qijiu and the others followed.

The streets of Dingyuan City were not as bustling as imagined, but a little colder.

People walking on the street may have depressed or dull expressions on their faces.

There are even some people who are yellow and thin, and they can tell that they have been starving for a long time.

Seeing this, Cheng De felt more and more uncomfortable.

Suddenly, under a low corner in front of them, there were two younger children who were fighting with each other.

The two children beat fiercely, and the corners of their mouths were bleeding, and they refused to give in, as if there was a deep hatred.

Seeing this, Cheng De hurried forward and quickly separated them.

However, what Cheng De didn't expect was that when they were separated, the two children joined hands and turned to attack him with fierce eyes.

This, why?
Cheng De couldn't figure it out, but his hands were not idle, and he easily subdued the two children with a few strokes.

Looking at them, Cheng De asked, "Why did you fight?"

The two children were silent.

"Why did you fight?" Cheng De asked again, with a stern tone.

Among them, a child lowered his head, unconsciously licked the corner of his mouth, and pointed to the place covered by the straw mat under the corner of the wall.

Cheng De turned his head and found many flies hovering above.

What's under the straw mat?
Cheng De let go of the two children, and the two children took the opportunity to run away.

Get close to the straw mat, squat down, and take a look.

Cheng De's face was pale.

Unexpectedly, there was a dead man under the straw mat.

Judging from the color of his sunken yellow face, he should have died not long ago.

Because of this, Cheng De's heart was like being hit hard by a heavy hammer.

Because this dead man was different from what he had seen before, only a skeleton was left of this dead man, all the meat on it disappeared, completely clean.

Carefully recalling the situation just now, the eyes of those two children were filled with a strong longing. This kind of longing was familiar to him. If he admitted correctly, it was the longing for food.

But only one intact head remained of the corpse.

Cheng De thought carefully and was terrified.

"Zhang Qijiu!" Cheng De shouted.

"General!" Zhang Qijiu rushed over with his people and bowed in salute.

"Bury this person properly! In addition, send someone to check how many people in the city have no food." Cheng De looked calm.

"Yes, General!" Zhang Qijiu replied.

After Zhang Qijiu arranged good people, he followed Cheng De again.

This time, Cheng De was not in the mood to walk on the street any more, and returned directly to Wanhu Mansion.

en route.

"Zhang Qijiu, you personally send a message to Feng Guoyong, asking him to take a hundred shi of grain from the granary and organize a porridge donation team to give porridge to the hungry people in the city."

"Yes, General!"

It was night, and Cheng De couldn't sleep all night.

At this moment, there was a bright flash, and there was a crisp sound as if the sky was about to split in two, and darkness returned.

Only the torrential rain poured down!

Looking at the scene outside the window, Cheng De's eyes regained his firmness: Ending this troubled world as soon as possible is the right way. The people's food shortage is only temporary, bear with it, hold on, maybe you will get through it, help if you can, and wait for the future. Open up HNA, send people to South America, bring all the food seeds that can be eaten there, maybe there will be no hunger in the world!

The next step - take Haozhou! !
