Chapter 20
Not to mention that the imperial court didn't give an order, even if it did, it would go to the local government office first, then make arrangements down the hierarchy, and finally reach the villages on both sides of the Huanling River.

But now that the country is in a dilemma, all the money has gone to war, so how can there be money to build embankments and dams?

This is not a small amount of money. This batch of money not only needs to be enough to pay labor wages and food, but also has to withstand the exploitation from Yancheng all the way to the village. Now Beichu is simply unable to afford it.

In other words, she didn't understand the meaning of rejection in General Luo's words. In her opinion, General Luo just didn't get the imperial edict, so he didn't dare to make decisions without authorization.

Without saying a word, he said earnestly: "Hey, General Luo, there is a saying that is good, the general will not accept the military orders abroad."

General Luo's face turned even darker. Is there something wrong with Yan's Xiao Er, can't he understand the meaning behind his words?

Seeing General Luo's unsightly expression, Zhu Xiaopang's small eyes twitched around, hastily tugged at his sleeves, and said, "Second Brother Yan, don't interrupt, General Luo has his own decision. "

In other words, he looked at the chubby man who was still holding sesame seed cakes, his eyes lit up and said, "Is General Luo worried about food expenses? It's simple, don't we all bring our own dry food, and don't need to be sent by the court. "

Everyone: "..."

As soon as these words came out, all the villagers stared at Luo Yong and said nothing, while all the strong men stared at Luo Yong and said nothing.

Why do they work for nothing! ?

"Don't say anything! Shut up!" General Luo understood that when talking to this silly Yan family's Xiao Er, he can't go round the corner, and telling him to shut up is the most correct choice.

Without saying a word, he blinked his eyes: "It's easy to shut me up, but can the general tell God to shut up and stop the rain?"

Both Lu Banxian and Zhu Xiaopang couldn't help shivering, thinking that it could be said that they were tired of work?

Lu Banxian wanted to open his mouth to smooth things over, but he changed his playful smile and said with a serious expression: "May I ask the general, what is the purpose of our expedition this time?"

"Hmm?" General Luo was a little taken aback by the abrupt change in the words.

Seeing that General Luo didn't speak, General Luo's lieutenant said, "Of course it's to fight against the enemy."

Without saying a word, he continued: "Then what is the purpose of fighting against the enemy?"

The lieutenant general continued: "Defend the family and the country, do you need to ask?"

Without saying a word, he snorted: "Defending the family and the country is for the sake of the country's prosperity and the people's safety, but if the people are in dire straits and the people are displaced, whose home are we trying to protect? Whose country are we defending? People are gone, families are scattered, The country will not be the country! Is our desperation still useful?"

The biscuit in Zhu Xiaopang's hand fell off, Lu Banxian's hand that was pulling the sleeve that he couldn't say anything froze, General Luo was stunned with a disapproving expression on his face, and everyone was petrified in place!
General Luo's face was full of disbelief.Such impassioned words, which are not pretty but impassioned, came from such an ugly boy.

"A country will not be a country, will our desperate efforts be of any use?!" Luo Yong, who had fought all his life, felt his eyes ache and his nose a little sore when he heard these words.

That's right, Northern Chu's vitality is exhausted, and the Great Zhou Dynasty is in a state of invincibility. They can't keep Northern Chu.

But he still has other choices, if he can't keep Beichu, at least he can keep the people of Beichu.

General Luo's knuckles turned white, he gritted his teeth and said, "This general order..."
