Chapter 248 Border border food is a big problem
"Shen Ru, do you think Liangzhou's 20 defenders can go to the capital to serve as king?"

Yan Shaoqing's words were a little solemn, "I don't want to see Xiao Wujin looking heavy, Shen Ru, what do you think?"

"The border troops cannot move."

Shen Ru said firmly, "Once it moves, Liangzhou will be in danger."

"Does the imperial court want to be attacked from both sides?"

"What you can think of, will the imperial court think of it? Those who are high above the temple only want to solve urgent needs, how can they care about the life and death of Liangzhou?"

Yan Shaoqing sarcastically said: "Wasn't your father a high-ranking official in the capital before? You might as well ask him."

"My father is a hereditary marquis and serves in the Hanlin Academy. He doesn't care about these powers. Xiao Wujin is from the cabinet. What if I said that there will be no chaos in Liangzhou!"

Shen Ru thought for a while, anyway, there was no chaos in Liangzhou in the original book, and this army did not enter King Qin of Beijing.

"You promise?" Yan Shaoqing looked at Shen Ru, wondering if Shen Ru knew something.

"What guarantee can I give? If you think about it from another perspective, can the rebels give the imperial court an additional 20 troops?"

Shen Ru said: "Either this imperial edict cannot reach Liangzhou; or there is a war at the border and the army cannot withdraw."

Yan Shaoqing was thoughtful, thinking about how he wanted to borrow the Yan family's caravan to escape customs. Could it be that the Cui family had something to do with the rebels?
"Okay, let's go."

Yan Shaoqing just wanted to find someone to talk to, but he didn't want to disturb Xiao Wujin, for fear that Xiao Wujin would be burdened with too much and worry too much.

After saying this to Shen Ru, and looking at Shen Ru's expression, he felt inexplicably relaxed. Liangzhou might really not be able to fight!

"Then I'm leaving. Yan Shaoqing, you are relatively well-informed. If there is any trouble, tell me!"

"I'm just chatting with you all day long. Do you have any solution?"

Yan Shaoqing really looked like he was trying to kill the donkey.

"Oh, I'm leaving, no need to send me away!"

Shen Ru rolled his eyes at Yan Shaoqing and left simply.

Why is there a horse at the door of my house?Who is here again?
Shen Ru was a little surprised when he saw the horse in front of his house.

"Mulchin, who is here?"

"Miss, General Zhao came to see Uncle Fu."

Mulchin replied.

Shen Ru was stunned, "How many times is this?"

"Three times after all!"

In other words, General Zhao also came when he was away!
Shen Ru was thinking in her mind when she saw her parents, Uncle Fu, and Mr. Zhao in the living room.

"Aru is back, come and see Mr. Zhao."

When Shen Yan saw Shen Ru, he greeted him.

"I've met Mr. Zhao." Shen Ru stepped forward and greeted him.

"You don't have to be polite, eldest niece. Hey, such a good eldest niece, why did she fall in love with Xiao Wujin?"

Zhao Gongming said without hesitation: "That guy is a scholar, I'm afraid he is very thin."

"Sir, Commander-in-Chief, it's a pity that my grandfather served in the army all his life, but by my father's generation, he is now a scholar!"

Shen Ru smiled lightly and said, "It doesn't matter whether it's a scholar or a soldier, as long as you are a good person!"

"Hey, my eldest niece is speaking to Xiao Wujin. Although that guy is a scholar, he is not pedantic. He is an exquisite person, but he is a little too narrow-minded."

Zhao Gongming said that although he could not deal with Xiao Wujin, the entire border army relied on Xiao Wujin to keep their food supply intact.

"I'm here today. I've been with Uncle Fu for a long time. If the old general is still there, he will definitely be able to help Gongming clear up his doubts." Zhao Gongming said melancholy: "Uncle Fu, if you are free, come and sit in our military camp and take a look at the people who are guarding the territory. My officers and men might as well give you a few words."

"I don't dare to take it. I'm too old."

Uncle Fu declined, "I'm afraid that revisiting the old place will only lead to sentimentality."

Zhao Gongming sighed and talked to Uncle Fu about the time when the old Marquis served as a border general.

Shen Ru listened quietly. If his grandfather was guarding the border, he would definitely know how to choose!

"Eldest niece, I listen to your Majesty's wishes. Eldest niece, you are the most like an old marquis. Why don't you go to the military camp and have a look."

"This...isn't appropriate!" Shen Ru said in surprise, "I am a prostitute, so I am afraid that going to the military camp will cause unnecessary trouble."

In order to let Xiao Wujin continue to be taken advantage of, Zhao Gongming favored Shen Ruke even more.

"I heard that you, eldest niece, also bought a ranch. You have a formidable future. Seeing you living and working in peace and contentment in Liangzhou makes me worthy of the old Marquis!"

Zhao Gongming's attentiveness really made Shen Ru have other ideas.

Do you want to borrow food and grass, or do you want her to borrow food and grass from Xiao Wujin?

"General Zhao, how are the recent developments in the grassland?"

Shen Ru couldn't help but ask: "I heard that there are always strange movements in the grassland!"

"It's just some gangsters who often stir up trouble in the border grasslands, but when our troops arrive, they just run away."

Zhao Gongming said angrily: "If it weren't for the above, I would have wiped out all the grassland tribes!"

"Liang Jing'an, that guy, came to Beijing last month, but he hasn't received any reply yet."

"Oh, Liang Jing'an City Jiedu Envoy."

Shen Ru felt that Zhao Gongming just wanted the Shen family to provide food and grass, but he couldn't open the door.

"Our family was exiled from the capital to Liangzhou. Alas, it is not easy to establish a family business in Liangzhou. I hope Liangzhou will not be in chaos!"

Shen Ru sighed: "What will happen to our family if there is a turmoil!"

When Shen Ruyi showed weakness, Shen's mother immediately understood.

"Yes, Mr. Zhao, all the money we have is on Aru's ranch. If the war breaks out, wouldn't we lose everything?"

"General Zhao, the safety of Liangzhou depends entirely on you!"

Zhao Gongming looked complicated, but he still nodded and said: "Liangzhou will not be in chaos. Liangzhou is the most important pass between Daduan and the Western Regions. Defending Liangzhou will prevent the Western Regions' cavalry from entering Daduan!"

"Then just wait for the good news from Lord Jiedushi. The capital must also know the importance of Liangzhou's border army."

Shen Ru said in a comforting tone: "General Zhao, actually I have an idea. These hundreds of thousands of troops train every day and consume food and grass every day."

"Right now, the government needs people, manpower is needed to dig rivers, and people are needed for demolition. I once heard my grandfather say that in ancient times, there was a system of garrisoning troops. Now... it is better to let the soldiers take turns..."

"Eldest niece, please stop talking. You must have heard this from Xiao Wujin. He has already been scolded by me."

However, Zhao Gongming waved his hand to stop Shen Ru from continuing.

"If a soldier doesn't practice for a day, his skills will become rusty. If the enemy actually arrives at the city, you ask the peasants to go into battle to kill the enemy. Do you think it's possible?"

"It is impossible to pick up a hoe with hands that are accustomed to holding weapons. Once you pick up the hoe, it will lose its blood. My eldest niece, you don't understand. Only the scholar Xiao Wujin could think of such a method!"

Shen Ru was ashamed, Xiao Wujin took the blame. Looking back carefully, the Ming Dynasty's army-farming system seemed to be able to temporarily alleviate the food and grass problem. However, it seemed that there was double pressure on the soldiers. They had to defend the border and also Be responsible for agricultural production...

"General Zhao, it's my wife's words!"

Shen Ru accepted the teaching with an open mind, so how to solve the border food and grass problem?
