grandfather married

Chapter 208
Ji Fushou lived in the village for a few days, and after learning about the situation in the frontier, he took his people away. Before leaving, he touched Xiao An's head and said to him gently, "Xiao An, grow up well and be filial to you. Mother, grandpa and the others, as for the person who killed your father, you have to work harder to be qualified to take revenge."

She gave Xiao An a dagger, and Xiao An grabbed the dagger and nodded solemnly, "Young master, don't worry, Xiao An will definitely work hard!"

In front of the city gate of Mayi City, Ji Fushou and his party separated in twos very carefully and low-key, and scattered into the city without attracting attention.

There is a small house in Mayi City, which Suju bought last year. After Ji Fushou and others moved into the house, they cleaned it for a long time before settling down.

"Su, go outside to inquire about the current news of Mayicheng."

In the evening, Su came back feeling chilly.

"Mayi City is now under martial law. The north gate of Mayi City towards Dingxiang City has been closed and never opened. The fear is that people from Xiliang will attack the city. As for the south gate, only entry is allowed, and no exit is allowed."

Ji Fushou let out a soft "Hey", "Who gave the order to enter and not to leave?"

Su Dao: "It's Feng Hao, the general guard of the Tengxiang Army. It is said that when the Tengxiang Army retreated to Mayi City at the beginning, it caused panic in the city. Many people packed up and saluted and prepared to leave Mayi City with their families. It will also be attacked by the Xiliang army.

But Feng Hao sent the Tengxiang Army to guard the south gate, and did not allow the people to leave. Because the Tengxiang Army was armed with big swords and were vicious, the people did not dare to trespass, so they returned to the city.

After that, Feng Hao began to recruit young and strong men, as long as they were males over the age of 12, they had to be recruited by the Tengxiang Army.The Tengxiang army recruited, no matter whether they met the conditions or not, as long as there were males in the family, they would be recruited. The people dared not speak out. "

Ji Fushou frowned and pondered, "He should be afraid that the Xiliang army will attack Mayi City. If Mayi City is lost again, all three of his clans will be punished, and no one can save him. So he wanted to make amends and wanted to Guarding Mayi City well, and fearing that reinforcements would not arrive for a long time, they used strong means to recruit young and strong.

However, according to Daqi's law, when the army recruits males during an emergency war, it should first be recruited from families with more than 12 and two adult males.Only when the mountain is at the end of the river can we recruit men over [-] years old. As for [-]-year-old children, what can they do? "

Ji Fushou vaguely felt that Feng Hao was jumping over the wall in a hurry, and I am afraid that he was panicking a lot at this time.

"What about the big and rich households in the city? Feng Hao won't let them leave?" Ji Fushou asked with a thought.

Su shook his head, "I didn't let them leave. The richer and richer they are, the less they can leave Mayi City. Unless someone in the family is an official, and they are high-ranking officials such as Yushi and third-rank officials, they can be escorted by the Tengxiang Army Leaving Mayi City, but there is no family in Mayi City who can meet this condition."

Sure enough, he was going crazy, and that’s right, losing Dingxiang City was originally a serious crime. Unless Feng Hao redeemed Dingxiang City by making amends, if Dingxiang City could not be retrieved, or if the loss was too great to get it back, he would not only At the end of his official career, he had to lose his head.

How could a dying person take care of rich households?

When Su said this, he looked embarrassed, "My lord, the food shops in Mayicheng are not open."

Ji Fushou was startled, and frowned, "What's going on?"

"The Tengxiang army confiscated the remaining grain from all the grain shops in Mayi City." Su went out to inquire about the news, and was about to buy some grain when he came back. Unexpectedly, all the grain shops were closed. After he knocked on several grain shops, he came from the next one The shopkeeper learned about it from his mouth.

"The shopkeeper also said that the Tengxiang army lost Dingxiang City by surprise. When they retreated, they didn't bring the army rations. The [-] Tengxiang army had no rations, so they directly requisitioned the remaining grain from all the grain shops in Mayi City. Don't say we This kind of outsider, even the people of Mayi City, can't buy food anymore."

Sutou has grown up, and he never expected that the first problem he encountered when he came to Mayi City was food.They simply brought some rice, but there are 28 people here, and they have a lot of food. The leftover food is only enough for five days. After five days, where to find food?
Ji Fushou's expression had already changed slightly, "Feng Hao is crazy! If the surplus grain from the grain store in Mayi City is confiscated, and the people are not allowed to leave the city, how will the people in the city live?"

No wonder the old man asked them to prepare their own rations. It turned out that there was no food to buy in Mayi City.

There is an army from Xiliang outside the city, and there is no food to buy in the city, and the people are not allowed to leave the city. Under panic and hunger, Feng Hao wants the people in the city to riot?
Even though Ji Fushou had a calm mind, his scalp felt a little numb at this moment.

On the second day of December, the imperial court received an expedited order of [-] miles from the Tengxiang Army. It has been half a month since the [-]th day. So how many days can the surplus food in the people's homes last?

If there is no food to eat, it is to force people to die!If there is a riot in Mayi City, the Xiliang army stationed in Dingxiang City will definitely not miss this good opportunity. How will Mayi City be defended before the reinforcements arrive?
You must know that Feng Hao recruited the young and strong in the city. If these young and strong knew that their relatives were starved to death under Feng Hao's persecution, these young and strong would definitely rebel against the Tengxiang army, and even if these young and strong were allowed to open At the south gate, the Xiliang army can easily occupy Mayi City.

"That boozer!"

Ji Fushou was so angry that his face was livid, and he was so angry that he slapped the coffee table next to him, splitting the coffee table in half.

"He actually expects the people in the city to help him defend against foreign enemies. It's fine if none of the people bite him to death."

Ji Fushou paced back and forth, his face so gloomy that water dripped out. After a while, she made up her mind. She looked at Su and solemnly ordered,

"Su, you are the best. You sneak out of the city, go back to find reinforcements, find Sibo privately at night, tell him the situation in Mayi City, and let him find a way to let Duke Lu know about the situation."

Feng Hao is a drunkard, she believes that Duke Lu must be able to see the danger, and will definitely find a way to eliminate the threat in front of him.

Knowing the seriousness of the matter, Su didn't dare to delay any longer. After saluting to Ji Fushou, Su stepped out of the house.

Looking at Su Li's back, Ji Fushou scolded in a low voice: "The wine bag and rice bucket, staying in this world is really a waste of food! Sure enough, no matter what dynasty, there are no such silverfish fools!"

I hope that the reinforcements can arrive at Mayi City soon, and I don't know how many days the people in the city can last.
