The army is the Ming Dynasty official army coming!

When these people woke up, not only were they not surprised, but they were panicked. They have heard that after the defeated soldiers disperse, they are usually no different from thieves, or even more domineering than thieves because they have swords and guns.

But soon, they reacted. I already have nothing, so what else am I afraid of, that they will rob me again? What a joke!

After just a while, after seeing more clearly, I found that what was coming from the distance was the regular Ming army. Especially some knowledgeable old people, when they discovered that it was the elite Guan Ning cavalry of the imperial court, their desperate and numb expressions immediately disappeared. The hope welling up from the bottom of their hearts made them involuntarily stand up and face the cavalry. Pay attention and salute in the direction of the army.

But those ghosts and monsters were a little panicked, running away or hiding. For a while, many places seemed a bit chaotic.

Under the banner of "Cao", a young general took the lead and rushed directly to the ruins of Yongping City. He is Cao Bianjiao, Cao Wenzhao's nephew.

The sound of "咴咴崴" sounded, and just in front of the crowd, the war horse stopped suddenly and stood upright, neighing, but Cao Bianjiao sat firmly on the horse without being affected at all. After he patted the horse's neck with his hand, the horse immediately stopped being agitated and seemed much quieter.

At this time, Cao Bianjiao faced countless people who were surging over and said loudly: "A certain person is Cao Bianjiao, the vanguard banner of the Guanning Army of the Ming Dynasty. According to the emperor's decree and sent by Sun Ge Lao, he came to rescue Fu'er and others. The army allocated troops The tents and food will arrive soon, please sit down in an orderly manner and there will be no disturbance!"

"Master Jun, Master Jun..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Cao Bianjiao heard a faint voice. He seemed to be shouting with all his strength but there was only a little movement. The voice was a little impatient, but also a little hopeful.

Cao Bianjiao immediately followed the sound and found that not far from the left front, where the horse was covered by the crowd, there was a naked old man, his whole body was blue and blue from the cold, lying on the ground trying to hold his head high and stretching out his hands to himself.

"Get out of the way!" Cao Bianjiao shouted, galloped his horse, and quickly came to the old man. He quickly turned over and dismounted, half-crouched in front of the old man and asked, "Old man, do you still have any unfulfilled wishes?"

He could see that the old man was already dying. Even if he had clothes to wear and a fire to keep him warm, he could not be saved.

The old man used his last bit of strength, slowly turned his head, pointed at the ruins of Yongping, and tried his best to answer: "I...the Wang family's...grandson..."

Before he finished speaking, his hands dropped and his head fell to the ground. His eyes were wide open and he refused to close his eyes.

After all, Cao Bianjiao was a young man. Although he had been in the army for a long time and was used to seeing life and death, when he saw it now, he still felt a surge of anger. He raised his head and looked around at the crowd around him and shouted: "What's going on? Where are his clothes? His grandson What's going on?"

Some people who knew the situation did not dare to lend a hand to help before. Now that someone was in charge, they became more courageous and sympathized with Mr. Wang, so they stood up and answered.

When Cao Bianjiao heard this, he immediately turned around and gave a stern order to one of his men. Suddenly, a group of cavalry galloped towards the ruins of Yongping amid the shouts of "drive".

With this demonstration, knowing that the imperial officers and soldiers could make the decision, some people came forward and accused Cao Bianjiao of some local gangsters who took advantage of the chaos to rob homes and houses. Others immediately reported that there were still White Lotus cultists here.

When Cao Bianjiao heard this, he immediately sent out all his cavalry troops and divided them into small groups to patrol on horseback. As soon as they found or reported those who were causing harm to the people, they would immediately kill them. In addition, he also sent a messenger to report back immediately. After all, the cavalry he led was too small and was not enough to control the entire scene outside Yongping City.

But with the presence of regular officers and soldiers, even if the number is negligible compared to the hundreds of thousands of people, everyone has a backbone and no longer panic. The cold wind does not seem to be so biting, and the stomach does not seem to be so. hungry. Everyone sat together in an orderly manner and started discussing things with interest. Such a scene can be regarded as a person!

They praised the young general's prowess, were surprised by Guan Ningjun's speed, and were even more surprised by what the young general said.

Guan Ning's army actually brought food and military tents, and said that they were sent by Ge Lao according to the emperor's order. When these people discussed this, it was almost unbelievable. Even though they, the old and weak, have more experience and can distinguish right from wrong than the average person, they are still confused at this time!

However, as the winter gradually increased, when another large group of cavalry arrived, when these troops took out their military tents and began to arrange them according to the military control method, when these troops took out food and began to cook porridge, these troops The old and weak believe it. Even if they had never heard of it before or seen such a kind-hearted court and such kind-hearted officers and soldiers, they believed it when faced with the facts.

At this time, even if someone from the White Lotus Sect talks about Lotus again, they are sure that they will never be persuaded. With such an emperor and such a court, where could the dark theory come from?

Although these old and weak people know that it is still unknown whether they can survive this most difficult period, they all know how to be grateful. Everyone praised Guan Ningjun, praised Mr. Sun Ge, praised the court, and praised the emperor. Everyone was very cooperative and didn't cause trouble. They just did what Guan Ningjun asked.

They didn't know that the emperor they praised was worried about them.

After Hu Guang retired from the court, he did not go to rest. Instead, he came to the Wenhua Palace and summoned some important officials of the court to discuss matters.

Just listen to Hu Guang say to these ministers below: "Although I sent the Guan Ning Army to the Yongping area early in the morning to rescue. But the Guan Ning Army does not have many remaining military tents, and there is not much food. For the millions of disaster victims, It’s just a drop in the bucket. If the imperial court doesn’t think of further ideas in time, I’m afraid all the previous efforts will be wasted! If you have any other ideas, please tell me as soon as possible!”

"Your Majesty, you may ask the state capitals around Yongping to resettle some disaster victims!" Zhang Zhifa, the new assistant minister, bowed and responded.

After hearing this, Wen Tiren, the first assistant, shook his head and objected: "That's not right. The surrounding prefectures of Yongping were also hit by military disasters. Although the city was not broken, all the surrounding villages and towns were looted by the rebels. How could they have the ability to take care of themselves when they have too much time to take care of themselves?" Will we resettle more victims?"

This is also true. Hu Guang nodded and asked, "What about Wen Qing's opinion?"

"I think we have to let them rebuild their homes as soon as possible and resettle them on the spot. But there are two difficulties. First, the people left behind are all old and weak, and rebuilding their homes requires a lot of labor. Where will this labor come from? ?”

"Secondly, there is a huge shortage of the most scarce food. It can be said that in the current capital, food is the most scarce thing. How to adjust this? If you transport food from the capital, a lot of valuables will be consumed on the way. of food.”

The frequent updates are very tiring, especially when I work overtime on Sundays, and the Mondays are full of updates, so I can rest and relax. Currently, I owe 50 monthly tickets for one update. I will wait until I can get three updates, and then I will have five updates a day.

Regarding the rules for adding updates, let’s talk about it again: if you get 2,000 weekly recommendation votes, you will get one update, if you get monthly votes, you will get one update, if you get a one-time reward of 5,000 starting coins, you will get one update, if you get 10,000 starting coins, you will get two updates, and so on. No matter how many people tip each week, there will be one update for ten people. Let’s do this first!
