It is not easy to be a monk in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 94: Food and Grass Robbery

"Hurry up, keep up! Brothers, work hard, we will reach our destination soon, and then everyone will have a good rest!"

A team of about 500 people is coming towards Suzhou City. They are wearing uniform military uniforms, carrying luggage, bags of corn, soybeans, flour and other types of food.

It was noon at this time, and the sun was shining in the sky. After several days of traveling all night, they were finally arriving. Counting the time, they could only rest for two hours a day, and even the meals they ate were their own dry food. While gnawing on the cold and hard steamed buns, he swallowed them with water, and now he was almost arriving. Standing on a high place, he could already vaguely see the outline of Suzhou City!

This task is about to be successfully completed, so everyone is very excited, but the spirit has begun to slack,

They were passing through the corner between two peaks. It is rare to see such a mountain in the south. The mountains are high and the forests are dense and steep, which makes people feel a little strange when looking at them. Therefore, Captain Hong, who is in charge of the team, looked up The mountain, frowning, decided to speed up the movement of the team and get through this area earlier.

But at this time, most of the people in the team have relaxed and are no longer on high alert.The thing is often like this, the closer to the end, the lower the vigilance of people. This is the same as the saying that the moment before the dawn is the darkest. People will always relax their hearts when they are close to success, and it is often at this time that things appear. reverse.

At a certain moment, the sound of drumming and shouting suddenly came from the peaks on both sides. Colonel Hong felt a sudden rush in his heart. Realizing that the situation was not good, he was about to speak to warn, but he opened his mouth the most but did not make a sound. An arrow, the feathers of the arrow were still trembling slightly at this time, Colonel Hong had no time to understand what happened, so he fell off the horse, and the last scene in his vision made him terrified.

Countless bows and arrows were shot down from high places, and the team was caught off guard. Only in this burst of sword rain, about 80 to [-] people were killed, and the wounded accounted for most of them. After only one round, the team's battle was weakened by seven More than enough.

Someone wanted to escape on a horse pulling food, but after the rain of arrows, "hail" fell. It was not ice crystals formed by the condensation of rainwater in the sky, but real stones!

This hillside is very steep, and it is often referred to as an area that is easy to defend and difficult to attack in the military. Stones are thrown from the mountain, rolling in with the force of thunder, and the rumbling sound is endless. The field of vision was greatly restricted, and I couldn't see the scene down the mountain clearly. I could only hear the screams and curses, and the neighing of horses galloping wildly. The sound became less and less and softer.

Finally, the dust settled, and the field of vision became clear again. What was displayed in front of people was a scene of Shura's hell, which was not inferior to the bloody and cruel battlefield!

Due to the narrowness of the mountain road and the steep slope, these soldiers were huddled together, and they could not evacuate quickly when they encountered a surprise attack. Therefore, when the water on the mountain was like the Yellow River rolling towards them, a tragedy happened. At that time, the stones won an overwhelming victory, so they sacrificed their bodies in failure, colliding, crushing, and flying flesh and blood!

At this time, the few surviving members of this team were lying on the ground moaning and moaning, accompanied by their former companions and comrades-in-arms, but they had no breath of life, stumped limbs and broken arms were scattered all over the place, very bloody and miserable.

Standing in front of them was a group of people with all kinds of farm tools in their hands, and their clothes were very messy.

In the eyes of the wounded soldiers on the ground at this time, these people no longer had the memories of the people in their impressions. Who said they were simple and honest? Who said they were simple?In the eyes of these people, they are robbers, devils, and evil animals!

The food this time is used to relieve the victims of the disaster, it is used to relieve the starving people like them!They are the advance troops, the first to rescue, and the large troops are still behind. They just transported these supplies as soon as possible for emergency use. For this reason, they came here day and night, and they did not expect such a result.

Their vision became very blurred. When they were dying, they seemed to see these demons snatching the life-saving food of the victims, and even using hoes to carefully find their breathing companions one by one, like eradicating the ground. Like weeds in the forest, they dropped the hoe on their necks and chests, but soon they no longer had to be angry, the shadow of the hoe in their eyes was approaching rapidly, and finally, they couldn't see anything!

"Second leader, everyone's corpses are here, no one is alive!"

"Haha, okay, brothers, burn all these offal to me. They sent us so many things, we can't treat them badly, and we can't let them be eaten by wild dogs! Haha!"

"The second leader is wise!"

After a while, smoke was everywhere, and there was a strong smell of meat blowing in the wind, and the valley was silent, as if the tragic battle just now had never happened.

"His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness!"

Wu Da ran and shouted, with a very unfriendly look on his face, it should be said that he was angry, what could make him so angry?

Li Chengqian's eyes were full of anger. The food in stock has almost been used up these days, and the supply is extremely reduced. It is definitely a luxury for the victims to eat a bowl of porridge. The number of victims is increasing faster than everyone can imagine. It was expected, so they have been drinking rice soup for the past few days.

Yes, it is rice soup!Rice soup composed of a few grains of rice and a bowl of water!

It's not that Li Chengqian has no benevolence, he also has no other way, a clever woman can't cook without rice, so if there is no rice, let him cook something for the disaster victims!

In the past few days, even he ate clear soup with little water, but even so, he was still anxious to get angry and blistered at the corners.

Looking at the appearance of Wuhan University at this time, he felt a sense of discomfort.

"His Royal Highness, the food sent by the court, the food..."

"Have they been delivered? Has the imperial court finally delivered the food?"

Uh?

Wuhan University had just started, and before it could finish, Li Chengqian hurriedly interrupted, and his whole face became beaming with joy!

Looking at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who was happy at the side, the words in Wu Da's mouth could not be uttered!

As if feeling the silence of Wuhan University, Li Chengqian calmed down his emotions slowly,

"What happened?"

"His Royal Highness, the imperial court," Wu Da closed his eyes and said in one sentence, "The food sent by the imperial court has been robbed!"

"Robbed? What do you mean?"

Li Chengqian stood there blankly, as if he didn't understand, maybe he didn't want to understand.

"The prince asked you, what does it mean that food has been robbed!"

Li Chengqian suddenly went into a rage, and slammed his palm on the table with a bang, the veins on his neck popped out, and stared fiercely at Wu Da who was so frightened that he fell to his knees.
