Chapter 385 Little Seven
The weather in Jiaozhou is freezing, the snow is like fluff, and the ground is covered with a thick layer of ice. The children are playing happily on the ice rink. Xie Jue and Feng Yu are both worried about how to deal with food. Their food reserves can only be Until mid-February, the military supplies of Ningzhou cavalry could not be moved. Xie Xun led a team into the mountains, picked a large number of wild vegetables, and returned to the Yamen for the old farmers to try one by one, which ones could be eaten and which ones could not.

When there is no food, they can only rely on wild vegetables that are naturally raised. Xie Jue and Feng Yu also sent people to go door-to-door to popularize science. Every household has to save food for the winter, and the state government is running out of food.The officials of the state government separately registered the information of the very poor farmers. Some farmers had no food at all and had to rely on the state government for relief. Fortunately, the business was not interrupted in summer. to April.

Of the twelve prefectures, Danzhou and Yuzhou are the most impoverished. This is the area with severe food shortages. After the grain and horse roads were built, Lin Xiao, Zhang Boxing, and Zhou Liyu led troops to station in Danzhou and Yuzhou respectively.The food of tens of thousands of cavalry was shared with the common people, and then these young and middle-aged men tried to find a way to go hunting in the mountains, so they could only live by tightening their belts.

Xie Jue went as far as possible to Danzhou and Yuzhou to ration food and grass. This group of soldiers had just built a food and horse road, so they couldn't be left to starve.Just after the epidemic raged, everyone knew that the twelve states were poor. Danzhou, Yuzhou and other six states had hoped that the Ningzhou iron cavalry would be able to rescue them. Now that there is a large army stationed there, although they are full and hungry, they will barely starve to death. , others dare not have any complaints.

Natural disasters and man-made disasters, Xie Xun is not a god, and he can't continuously produce food.

Xizhou and Huangzhou saved some rations, and sent them to Yuzhou and Danzhou. The grain and horse roads were repaired, but the official roads in the twelve states had not been repaired. The roads in the entire twelve states were not easy to travel, and Jinzhou was very It is difficult to send food to Danzhou and Yuzhou.If 1000 people deliver food, maybe half of it will be consumed on the way.

Xie Jue frowned as he looked at the mansion newspapers sent from all over the country, his brows were tightly frowned. The only good news was that the epidemic did not spread in the states and counties. Almost all the mansion newspapers were talking about food shortages.

Both Xie Xun and Xie Jue were in trouble.

It is the best way to use Ningzhou iron cavalry military rations for relief. However, even Xie Xun never said a word about using military rations for relief, and the military rations cannot be moved.

No one knows what will happen on the border, whether the northern barbarians will invade.

The Ningzhou iron cavalry must guarantee more than half a year of grain and grass reserves. If they want to use the Ningzhou iron cavalry to reserve grain, General Zhou can be killed at the gate of the granary to give a deadly remonstrance.

Xie Jue thought of a way to divide the twelve prefectures into six regions. Luocheng, Pingzhou and other places were in charge of Yancheng, and several prefectures near Jinzhou were all handed over to Jinzhou to find a solution.Although the twelve prefectures are poor, Yancheng in the north and Jinzhou in the south are relatively rich, and some prefectures and counties have a little surplus food.

In the middle of the first month, there was a heavy snowstorm. Xie Xun planned to go back to Ningzhou, but because of the blizzard, he stayed in Jiaozhou for a while. Xue Yu also served as the capital of Jiaozhou. Xie Jue has not yet found a suitable candidate to replace him.

He felt that Feng Yu was quite suitable to be the magistrate of a prefecture. He was rejected by Xie Xun when he first started. Heng, the real owner is Ayu. In the coming winter, when the snow melts, she will also be in charge of agriculture and mulberry in the twelve prefectures, so she can no longer serve as magistrate of Jiaozhou."

"However, there are tens of thousands of iron cavalry stationed in Jiaozhou, and the candidates to know the state are too important. If they don't agree with the iron cavalry, it will be difficult to control them."

"Second brother, you want to stay in Jiaozhou anyway, so you can take charge." Xie Xun said, "Or you can appoint someone you trust."

Xie Jue didn't want to be the magistrate of Jiaozhou, he had to entertain and socialize, and it was very annoying. He also pushed a person in front of Ningzhou to block it, and he actually controlled it from behind.

In the epidemic area outside Jiaozhou City, only 60 people have not recovered. Feng Yu wanted to transfer them all to the city. After all, there were tents outside the city, and it was freezing cold.The temperature was too low at night, and some people almost froze to death in the tent. If they really froze to death, Yu Xie Xun's reputation would be bad.

After discussing with Feng Yu, Xie Jue and Feng Yu vacated the overflow hospital at the north gate of Jiaozhou, Feng Yu was in charge of taking all the people into the hospital, and one of them caught Feng Yu's attention.The boy's body was just twitching, he was half a head taller than Feng Yu, he had a pair of dark eagle-dog-like eyes, fierce and focused.His face was so dirty that he couldn't see his face, Feng Yu asked the doctor if the boy had just contracted an epidemic and was sent in, he was not from Jiaozhou, he had no father or mother, he was an orphan.

Feng Yu always felt that these eyes resembled a person in her memory, but she thought it was impossible, until a dagger fell from the boy.A fox was carved on the scabbard in yellowish color, the jewel on the handle was picked off, Feng Yu stared blankly at the dagger, and suddenly called out, "Xiaoqi, is that you?"

The young man turned around in surprise, saw the dagger in her hand, was stunned, and tentatively called out, "Sister?"

Fengyu was overjoyed, her whole body was overwhelmed by the joy of regaining what was lost, she rushed over and hugged him tightly, tears streaming down her face, "Xiao Qi, it's great that you are still alive, I miss you so much!"

Xie Xun led the team to hunt in the mountains. When he returned to the city, he knew that Feng Yu was arranging for the transfer of patients, so he came to pick her up. Unexpectedly, he saw Feng Yu hugging a young man affectionately. At that moment, something seemed to be fierce in his mind. He thumped him hard, Xie Xun's eyes darkened instantly, and he was furious!
The young man also hugged her in surprise, and was about to speak when he was suddenly pulled away by a huge force. Xie Xun's eyes were dark and jealous, and he was angry at Feng Yu, "Are you crazy? He's still sick!"
