Chapter 391
A steady stream of potatoes, sweet potato flour, and corn flour were transported to Hejian by horse-drawn carts.

Hejian City and its three surrounding counties all turned into a big construction site. Anyone who had no food at home volunteered to work on the construction site.In addition to the full food for the working people, some food is also distributed when they get off work in the afternoon.

Originally, according to Chailin's intention, the family was given a hundred catties of grain and let them eat slowly by themselves.

Wu Yong said, give birth to Mien, fight against Mien, and distribute food to them at once, they are not willing to build roads anymore, and the quality of the people is not that high.

After all, Hejian is not the base of Chai Lin, and the mass base is weak. Chai Lin listened to Wu Yong's opinion and distributed food according to the day.

Hundreds of thousands of people work on the construction site every day. The supervision and the propaganda team work together to ensure the efficiency of the work. At least there will be no phenomenon of a large number of grinding foreign workers.

Let's talk about Jizhou Prefecture. Liang Zhongshu led Li Cheng, Wenda's main force of [-] and Yang Zhisuochao's [-] vanguards to join together and occupied Jizhou City, which was abandoned by the Liao soldiers.

The people who have gone through hardships think that they will have a good life, at least the court can distribute some food so that they will not starve to death, but the wait is in vain.

The treasury is empty, so I can find a way by myself.

The same is true in reality. The Liao soldiers emptied the food and grass in the two prefectures of Shenzhou and Jizhou.Liang Zhongshu's army consumes a lot every day.

In the white barracks of the Chinese army, Liang Zhongshu was overjoyed and very happy.

Wen Da said: "My lord, your lord has worked hard to recover Shenzhou and Jizhou this time. We have to report to the court as soon as possible."

Li Cheng said: "Whether it's just on the list, we must give some of the flags, armors, and heads of the Liao soldiers to the officials to show the might of our Daming army."

"My lord, there are more than [-] victims inside and outside the city, who were killed by the Liao soldiers. If we don't provide relief, I'm afraid they won't be able to survive this winter." Yang Zhi reminded.

The chief general Li Cheng was a little dissatisfied, and said: "There is no one who will not die in a war. We fight as soldiers. It is a great kindness to beat the Liao soldiers away. How can we care about the victims of the disaster."

"This." Yang Zhi was at a loss for words. He was also a person who was not good at words, so he was speechless for a while.

Liang Zhongshu was not dissatisfied, saying: "Yang Xianfeng and Suo Xianfeng made their first contribution in this battle. I will report it to the imperial court together. It's just that the rescue of the victims is powerless. I heard that the Cangzhou Army defeated the Liao Army Vanguard in Hejianfu." Alich’s [-] cavalrymen have seized a lot of supplies. There should be millions of guns, and guide the refugees to Hejian Mansion for food, so that they can survive this winter.”

Li Cheng's eyes lit up, and he said: "My lord, that Chai Lin is a descendant of the previous dynasty, so it is useless to claim such a feat. What's more, the Cangzhou army left the defense zone without the order, which is tantamount to rebellion."

Liang Zhongshu said: "It makes sense. This general will assign this achievement to General Li and General Wen. As for the achievement of chasing and killing the enemy general Kou Zhenyuan, I will assign it to Yang Xianfeng and Suo Xianfeng. Are you satisfied?"

"Everything is subject to the arrangement of the adults."

Now that Liang Zhongshu has already agreed, everyone can have any opinions, and the matter is settled like this.

The refugees got the news that the Hejian Mansion in the east had extra money and food, and asked everyone to go to Hejian Mansion for food.

Although it is not far from Jizhou to Hejianfu, it is still two hundred miles away. At least it takes two or three days to walk. This short two hundred miles has become a purgatory on earth.

Some of the 10 people stayed in the local area to find a way, and the rest rushed to Hejian Mansion.

The old, the infirm, and the sick many died by the side of the road.

The sentry immediately reported the news to Chai Lin, and Chai Lin immediately called Wu Yong and Gongsun Sheng to discuss after receiving the news.

Gongsun Sheng was very angry and scolded: "They are simply beasts. These people did not die at the hands of Liao soldiers, but were killed by their own people. It is really abominable."

Wu Yong was not angry, and said: "There are so many people like this in the world. It's like killing them if a stingy guy takes a catty of grain out. But Liang Zhongshu is still reasonable, mainly because he has no grain."

Gongsun Sheng gave a deep salute and said, "Brother, please send food and relief quickly."

"There are more than 5 people here. Two catties of grain per person per day is 300 catties, and three million catties a month. It will cost a lot to transport so much grain." Wu Yong said worriedly.

Gongsun Sheng said: "Then you can't just ignore death."

"Hejian Prefecture has no way to raise food locally. Instead of transporting food, it is better to transport people to the newly built refugee village near Yantian, and then divert them. Let's arrange a supply camp and a four-sea car dealership to do it. Send [-] carts. It can be transported in a few days." Chailin said.

At the junction of Jizhou and Hejian, refugees flocked along the official road like dumplings.

Most of them are young and strong children, and the elderly have already passed away in the displacement.

At the junction, there is a big red notice, which says that all refugees who enter Hejian Mansion will have food, two meals a day, but everyone is required to maintain order and rules, and anyone who beats others or loots things will be severely punished Twenty lashes, severe cases will be executed.

Gongsun Sheng felt that this notice was written too seriously. Are you a homeless person who can’t eat or drink, and some people beat others?Still looting things?
A row of thatched huts was built on the side of the road ahead, with [-] large pots on them. They cooked sorghum porridge, a gruel made from aged sorghum rice, and there were some cleaned carrots beside them. The carrots were sweet, and eating them raw could replenish vitamins.

Eat some porridge and a carrot to survive and persevere.

Most of the displaced people are still very grateful and well-behaved, insisting on queuing up one by one to collect.

At noon, a large group of refugees came suddenly. There were about 200 people with their families, and they should be from a big family.

The leaders were a few strong men, with sticks in their hands, driving away other refugees who were queuing up to get the porridge.

"Go away, go away, don't get in the way."

The person in charge of porridge said: "What are you doing, you want to eat porridge and line up."

"Eating porridge and queuing, I'm almost starving to death." A group of people rushed up, took three pots of porridge, took two boxes of carrots, ate porridge and carrots, and drove away other people in line.

Gongsun Sheng came over and shouted: "Go back immediately, line up one by one, and then come to eat."

"You rich and ruthless villains, you give alms of sorghum porridge for this and that, a bunch of broken rules." A black man said.

Others listened and thought it made sense. These rich people are hypocritical, giving a sorghum porridge for alms, and it feels like a kindness. Why are they queuing up? .

Only then did Gongsun Sheng realize that he was a bit ambitious and careless. Although he had a good heart, the refugees and disaster victims were not all good people.

"You black man, don't try to stir up people's hearts here, hurry back, line up properly, pretend that poverty has never happened, if you dare to mess around again, looting things, it's not a joke to call soldiers later That's it." Gongsun Sheng said.

The man seemed to be well-informed, and said: "It's still a soldier, the Liao soldiers have already wiped out the thousands of soldiers in the Hejian Mansion."

Gongsun Sheng was so angry that he shook the Buddha dust and said, "You are very tricky. Since you are a refugee, you must have the consciousness of a refugee. No one owes you. You don't know how to be grateful, loot things, and stir up trouble."

"Don't listen to this old-fashioned person, everyone, hurry up and eat." The man greeted the people behind him, and it seemed that he wanted to monopolize the food.

At this moment, someone shouted: "Who is making trouble there?"
