MTL - Unlimited Supplies: Take the Space Supermarket To Support the Right Minister-Chapter 487 Linzhou City is lost
The warehouse of the Zheng family not only has a lot of grain, but also polished rice and noodles.
In addition to food, there are also various teas and condiments in the warehouse.
Yu Xiaolian immediately fell in love with the pile of old ginger. The old **** is used to make **** soup for the common people to drink.
In addition to old ginger, another warehouse in the Zheng family also had a lot of air-dried meat, including pork and hare meat, and some meat that Yu Xiaolian couldn't recognize in its original form.
Dried meat hung all over the roof of the warehouse.
Seeing rows of clay pots on the ground, Yu Xiaolian opened one casually, and there was snow-white lard inside.
In addition to lard, there are dozens of jars of pickles and a cellar of good wine!
Yu Xiaolian decided to only use old **** and pickled vegetables. Old **** is used to make **** soup, and pickled vegetables can be made into pickles.
Let the grassroots drive the ox cart in, put a jar of pickled vegetables and old **** into the cart, and ask the old man left behind by the Zheng family to write down what she took, and Yu Xiaolian hurried back.
She didn't plan to take the grain yet. She drove out by herself that day, and then took a cart of grain back, saying that she brought it back from the Zheng Family Grain Depot. No one would verify her in the current situation.
"Xiao Lian, those pickles are for dinner, so... you give them pickles?" Gao felt that it would be good to give those people porridge.
Yu Xiaolian said, "Don't forget, there are not only refugees in Yangcheng, but also the strong people who stayed to defend the city. If they are not fed enough, how can they have the strength to defend the city?"
Yu Xiaolian frowned, "The porridge for those old people can be thinner, but those who defend the city must eat dry food, success or failure depends on it, if the barbarians break through the city, then all our food will go into theirs Stomach."
If you don’t eat for nothing, who knows if this city gate can be defended?
The original maids and wives in the Su Mansion were few, only three maids and two wives, these five of them did the cooking for Min Zhuang and the yamen servants these days, and the original cooks of the county yamen were the original cooks. Mrs. Ge, the old man who sells vegetables in the market, has already run away with Mrs. Ge when she hears that there is going to be a war.
Hu Jun hasn't come yet, but Yangcheng is getting more and more empty. Su Jingchen asked Li Wenyuan to count. In addition to those who defended the city, there were less than a thousand people who took refuge and those who stayed behind.
In other words, the total number of people in Yangcheng is less than 2,000.
Then what kind of meal do you share? eat together!
Yu Xiaolian turned the big pot of rice into a super big pot of rice. In just three or four days, the county government's grain storage plummeted.
Yu Xiaolian asked Su Jingchen to find an excuse and borrowed the grass roots, and then the two of them drove the ox cart together, went around the Zheng family compound, found a remote alley, and smoothly replaced themselves in advance. Good bags of grain were brought out.
In addition to rice and yellow rice, Yu Xiaolian also took a lot of corn dregs and rice beans.
Cooking rice beans with corn dregs is very hungry, and the taste is also very good.
"Okay, I can't pull the cart anymore with the ox!" Under Su Jingchen's stop, Yu Xiaolian stopped.
If it wasn't for the fear of being caught as a monster, Yu Xiaolian felt that she could support a whole city.
The two walked back, yes, they were walking, the car was full of food, and there was no place for them to sit.
"It's been so many days, and Hu Jun hasn't come here yet, did the king of Linzhou change his mind and decide to defend Linzhou?" Yu Xiaolian asked as he walked.
Su Jingchen shook his head and said, "In order to expand the situation, the king of Linzhou will definitely lose Linzhou.
He should be waiting for an opportunity! "
Linzhou is Jun Mobai's fief, and he definitely doesn't want Linzhou to be robbed by Hu Jun. Although losing the city is inevitable, Jun Mobai has a plan in mind when and how long he will lose it.
"Is there any movement from General Li?" It stands to reason that Li Guangpu should already be on his way to support at this time.
Counting from the day when Fu Tong passed through Yangcheng, Li Guangpu should have arrived in Yangcheng by now, but Su Jingchen asked He Jian to scout in the direction of Jinzhou several times, but he didn't see any reinforcements, which is really strange!
"No!" Su Jingchen's heart was heavy.
If he can't wait for reinforcements, then everything he is doing now will be in vain.
Su Jingchen and Yu Xiaolian brought a cart of grain back to the county government office. While people were unloading the grain into the granary, Yu Xiaolian was still making bugs, turning a bag of corn crumbs out from time to time. Su Jingchen, with his hands behind his back, turned sideways Let Yu Xiaolian block it.
After the truckload of grain was unloaded, the grass roots looked at the stacks of tall grain bags, and couldn't help feeling, "This old cow is really strong, and can bring so much grain back at once!"
Su Jingchen and Yu Xiaolian looked at each other, guilty of not saying anything, they walked out hand in hand.
The next day, before dawn, He Jian knocked on Su Jingchen's door.
"My lord, the city of Linzhou is broken, and the king of Linzhou is bringing people here!"
"Go and stop the king of Linzhou halfway and let him bring people in through the south gate!" They have already set a trap at the north gate and reinforced the city gate, waiting for this day.
"Yes!" He Jian responded, and the next second he flew into the air and disappeared on the spot.
Su Jingchen whispered while putting on his clothes, and said to the awakened Yu Xiaolian, "After the king of Linzhou arrives, you must not take things out of the space again. If you need anything, you should prepare it in advance!"
Yu Xiaolian nodded, "I see, you wear more, it's very cold in the middle of the night!"
"You...be careful, I'm afraid there are barbarian spies sneaking in in Yangcheng." Su Jingchen warned worriedly.
Yu Xiaolian got up in a daze, "Then I'll go to Jinghua's room. If you need anything, go find me there!"
Su Jingchen nodded, "As long as the city gate is not breached, there shouldn't be any danger for the time being, I'm afraid that someone will do something secretly.
Be careful in the kitchen these days, don’t let strangers get in, even if it’s someone from King Linzhou, you have to ask clearly! "
Yu Xiaolian asked while putting on clothes, "Will the King of Linzhou bring food when he withdraws? If he doesn't bring food, we can't afford to feed so many people!"
Su Jingchen had already walked to the door at this time, "Don't worry about the food, the king of Linzhou should come from other places to adjust the food."
Su Jingchen went into the night alone, and Yu Xiaolian also took advantage of the hazy moonlight to walk quickly to Su Jinghua's room.
Su Jinghua also woke up at this time, it can be said that He Jian's voice woke up the entire backyard of the county office.
Yu Xiaolian blew out the candles in the lantern, and Su Jinghua lit the candles on the table.
"Sister-in-law, is the barbarian really calling?" Su Jinghua panicked.
"The king of Linzhou is here, and the Hu people probably won't come after him so soon."
The purpose of the Hu people's war was not to destroy Great Liang, but to enrich their supplies. Presumably they won Linzhou City, and they should first transport the looted supplies back to the Hu country.
Moreover, Yu Xiaolian didn't think that Hu Guo had the strength to dare to chase all the way to Yangcheng.
