Quick wear: the villain's father's fine cub

"Is the news accurate? Is the source reliable?" Fu Chen hurriedly asked.

"Absolutely reliable. I'll take you away now." As Maid Qian said, she was about to resist others.

Fu Chen hurriedly struggled, subconsciously putting his arms in front of his head, "I don't believe you!"

Just as Shiqie Qian was about to make a move, Fuchen immediately shouted, "Quiet!" Shiqie Qian was startled, turned around and jumped out of the window to leave.

There was a sound of catching thieves outside.

Jing ran in and asked if Fu Chen was okay.

Fuchen was still in shock and did not respond.

Jing stepped forward to check to make sure everything was fine.Asked if he knew who it was?
Fuchen raised his head, his face was still blank, he shook his head slowly, and continued to be blank.

The Lan River broke its embankment.Does he know about this?

Once the food line is broken, the north will directly become an "end-time state", which is more terrifying than the biochemical crisis.

At least, the living will not eat corpses for fear of cadaverization, and there are always some people who maintain the lowest humanity, even if it is only because of fear.

But hunger is different.

Hunger eats away at the brain.

Driven by hunger, people will binge eat whatever they can get their hands on in their mouths.Including, the dead and the living.

What is more terrifying is not death, but the days of being tortured by fear and hunger before starving to death.

In the north, there will be no more people, and only wild animals will live.

That is hell on earth.

Fu Chen was anxious for a moment, her heart ached slightly.

At the same time, Liu Shen, who was about to attack before the battle, felt the pain, frowned and thought for a while.After the lieutenant general urged to issue an attack order, he rushed forward with a roar of "ah".

The roar is high and fierce, deterring the enemy and boosting morale.

Everyone roared and rushed forward.

Liu Wang's army was extremely excited as if it had been beaten with chicken blood.

And Liu Wang himself rushed forward to kill the enemy general, and after ordering the lieutenant general to continue, he turned and ran away.

The lieutenant wanted to say, won't you kill him?In the past, didn't you rush to the front and kill to the bottom?

When everyone excitedly smashed open the city gate, rushed into the city, seized the army rations, horses and grass, as well as the county guard and the county magistrate, several lieutenants realized: Where is King Liu?

And Liu Shen, who rushed back, kept frowning.He thought about whether it was a mess of floating dust.But according to her personality, she is better at making him so painful that he loses his fighting power with one blow, so that he can be stabbed to death by the enemy, rather than this little pain.

In addition, she has never been in pain for so many days, there must be something she can't pay attention to.

Because the loop does not pass through the hostile city, it is its own city.

After Liu Shen passed through the city with a team of horses and had a meal, they changed horses and galloped back overnight.

In the evening of the next day, Liu Shen rushed into the palace and walked straight to the small courtyard. Seeing that the person was still under the tree, his brows were worried.

"What's the matter? Is there something wrong?" Liu Shen squatted in front of Fuchen and asked calmly.

Fuchen raised his head and "looked" around.

Liu Shen waved his hand.

At this time, even the people behind the quiet courtyard were gone.

"What's the matter?"

Fu Chen met his gaze and asked, "Have you ever thought about the Lan River breaking its embankment?"

Liu Shen immediately knew the seriousness of the matter, frowned and said, "Who told you?"

"You don't know?" Fuchen also frowned.

Weird.

Liu Shen is always ahead of her, on the battlefield where information determines strategy, he is the leader.

He didn't know either, how did the concubine Qian, who lived in the same small corner as her, know?

How did the people behind her know about it before Liu Shen?

Could it be... someone blocked the news?

"Who told you that?" Liu Shen pressed.

Fuchen shook his head to show that he didn't know, and asked, "Do you have food in stock?"

Liu Shen didn't answer.

No need to answer either.

How can an army of tens of thousands of people store food?
If you want to save, it will only last for two or three months. How can you compare with a businessman who saves for a year?
Liu Shen thought for a moment, "Don't worry about this matter, I'll take care of it." Then he got up and left.

The floating dust remained in place quietly.The brows are still deeply locked with sorrow.

That night, there was another person on the floating dust bed.This time, she was not so surprised.

"You tell him the news."

Fuchen sighed inwardly: Another concubine of Qian.

Why was concubine Qian able to find Liu Shen when he came back?Didn't the hidden guard eliminate the hidden dangers before?
"What do you want?" Fu Chen asked.

There was a moment of silence in the room.

"If you want to leave, blow the whistle."

At that moment, Fu Chen understood who Maid Qian was.

The Zhang family, Zhang Yunqing.

"I have a feud with the Zhang family, how can he protect me?" Fuchen asked.

I'm afraid that if she goes, she will be regarded as a pawn to threaten Liu Shen, something worse than a dog.

"He is the young master appointed by the Zhang family, the future Zhang family master. Naturally, he can protect him."

"Really?" Fu Chen was indifferent.

Concubine Qian saw Fu Chen's expression and knew it would be useless to talk too much, so she turned and left.

Fu Chen reached out to touch the silver whistle that was made into a pendant in his clothes.Liu Shen also knew this thing, and knew who gave it to her, but he tacitly agreed that she would stay.

He was so angry before, and it seems that he also knew that the real person behind this concubine Qian was Zhang Yunqing from the Zhang family.

That's weird, why are you angry?
Fuchen still doesn't understand.If the Zhang family is angry and reaches out to the backyard, the whistle cannot be kept.

gosh.

Fuchen gave up thinking about it and continued thinking about Lanhe.

Sleepless all night, woke up early in the morning.

There was one person sitting on the bed.

"I asked, but the Lan River didn't break its embankment." Liu Shen said.

"..." Floating dust was clouded for a while, then he quickly regained his sanity and said, "How do you know?"

"Grain merchant. Today I asked the grain merchant for grain, and he happily gave it to me. I asked him where it came from, and if he could deliver [-] shi in the next month, and he said yes." Liu Shen answered very carefully.

With 3 shi, [-] troops can last for about three months.

"Where did he say it came from?" Fuchen grasped the key point sensitively.

"Wei River. The lower reaches of the Lan River." Liu Shen also connected to the point of the floating dust, "Could it be the upper reaches?"

It may not affect the whole river course - he dare not say that.

Liu Shen was about to get up to leave again, but Fu Chen grabbed his hand, "Take me to see the map." Then he lifted the quilt and put on his shoes.

"You don't have to worry about these."

Fuchen grabbed people and said seriously, "Why don't you? The north is thousands of miles away, with 24 cities and a population of millions. How do you want me to ignore it?"

"You don't understand." Liu Shen threw out a reason.

Fuchen let go of his hands, put on his coat, and said coldly, "If I don't understand, it's not that I'm giving you news, but you're telling me to evacuate."

Liu Shen stopped talking.

Followed to the study, Liu Shen took out a map and explained the course of the Lan River to Fuchen.

Liu Shen pointed to the map and said, "From Tianlan Mountain, go down through Wancheng, Nanyang, and Danyang in the southwest, then enter Hanoi along the Lujiang River, enter Longkang, Yingchuan at the turn, then Wuxing, Yixing, and finally enter Donghai. The food came from Wuxing."

"It means that the flood didn't reach Wuxing, and it was still in the middle and upper reaches." Fuchen took over the conversation.

Liu Shen raised his head and glanced coldly at the floating dust, "Maybe there is no flood at all."

"I remember that the southwest region is a fertile land. The fertile soil in Qiao County is rich in silk. Perhaps a gap can be opened from here." Fuchen came up with an idea.

"Floating dust!" Liu Shen roared.

Dust raised its head.

"Get out!" Liu Shen said.

"..." Fuchen froze.

"I should know what women and Taoists discuss about military affairs." Liu Shen muttered dissatisfied.

Fu Chen Na Na walked out of the study, not knowing what he did wrong.

Qiaojun... Fuchen asked Jing to help her find a book. Does Qiaojun have any taboos?

"People in Qiaojun are good at making brocade with cotton, and one piece of brocade from Qiao is a thousand taels. The land is fertile."

"The location is headed by the Xiahou family and the Cao family. Xiahou is good at martial arts, and his ancestors were once the founding generals. The Cao family is good at singing and dancing, and has been married to the royal family for generations..."

These are all fine.

"...The low place is steep..."

"What did you say? Say it again." Fuchen exclaimed.

"The Shajiang River stretches for thousands of miles, and the mountains are steep." Jing paused, asking silently if this is it?
"Continue." Fuchen urged.

"The current is fast and steep, the river is dangerous, and shipping is difficult."

Fu Chen slapped his big hands fiercely, trying to figure it out.He asked urgently, "Where did Liu Shen get those grains?"

"The south. It is mainly Qiao County in the southwest. There is Kanglong in the middle and the Wang family in Langya in the southeast. Few grain merchants blatantly transport them here."

Got it all!

Shajiang, Shajiang, Shajiang is the upper reaches of Lanhe River.

The riverbed is steep, the flowing water is highly erosive, and the surroundings are full of dangerous mountains.

The river floods every year, and only because the Xiahou clan organizes to dredge the river every year, and the ferocious river flows down the river, there is no flooding.

If it breaks its embankment, the Shajiang River is even more likely to break its embankment!

Wu Xing didn't know Weixi River, because the river was still blocked upstream!It was blocked in Qiao County, and it didn't flow to Weixi at all!
Liu Shen was angry because if this matter was serious, most of his army's food supply would be cut off!In addition, someone blocked the news and wanted to trap him to death in the north. He was really a ghost king who ate human flesh!

Fu Chen wanted to understand everything, his heart turned cold, he was really ruthless.

For the sake of Liu Wang Liu Shen, millions of people in the north were treated as livestock.

There is still the imperial city Ancheng here, and there is still an emperor sitting in Ancheng.

She was curious, which bastard is so inhuman?Desperate to play?

"You go and remind Liu Wang, let him stare at the emperor... No, no." No matter how stupid he is, he shouldn't try to distinguish the truth from the false.

Even if the news is blocked, the Southwest refugees will not be able to gather.After half a month, some refugees will go out.

The river is fierce, and it will wreak havoc on Wu Xing in half a month.

There is no peaceful place up and down the Lan River.

It's much faster to stare at the royal side.The emperor is still the emperor no matter how he displays it, and it is impossible for those who block the news to block the emperor.

Thirty thousand dan, that is, thirty thousand grains.

But this place still has at least a million people.There is a famine here, but at any rate, because the grain from the south has been brought in for sale, the twelve great gentry are in charge, and there are still large groups of people who depend on the gentry to survive.This figure is roughly estimated to be in the millions.

The three-year disaster is hard to say. The actual death rate is estimated to be 20 to [-], which is about [-]%.

But at the food line, these millions of people are really hungry.

Therefore, even if there were [-] tans of grain, it would not be enough to distribute.I can only squeeze it tightly to myself.

But where do these millions of people go?

Do you want everyone to hug each other to death?
They ate each other's flesh, drank their blood, and tried their best to keep themselves alive... Fuchen shuddered.

Trouble.

In the evening, Fuchen tasted his own dishes, two dishes and one soup, and they were all served in bowls—the palace never wasted.All her meals and meals are calculated, not to be wasted, including the current backyard - she has the idea of ​​devouring.

Eat less today.

You can eat more in the future.

This idea was very stubborn, and after wandering for a long time, it was finally dismissed by reason: it's the beginning of summer, and all the food that was hoarded is gone, which is even more wasteful.

There was no news for the next five or six days.

Liu Shen is not here.The message was blocked again.all-round.

The floating dust was stuffed in the small courtyard and couldn't go anywhere, and didn't know anything.

Irritated and uneasy, even if I try my best to suppress my emotions, I can't help worrying: Is he chasing food?Are you going to stockpile food?
Food, food, food is all on my mind.

I even think about eating every day, and when it's time to eat, I think about saving money.

Repeated, contradictory, restless.

The gears of history are slowly rolling, and millions of souls are forming bones under the ruts-it seems to be determined.

Finally, on the seventh day, Liu Shen reappeared.

Before Fuchen was delighted to find [-] grains, he found a smell.

A strong, disgusting smell of blood.

Fuchen was stunned, and touched his face with his hands.

"We lost." A dull voice.

Fuchen was still in a daze.Those hands were rough and sticky to the touch, like sweat and blood, sticking to them.

This layer of blood and sweat touched his face slightly again.

"The [-] grains were confiscated by the Langya Wang family and transported to Ancheng. I will go and grab them. The Wang family directly burned the grains." Liu Shen said lightly.

The dust was on fire.Gritting his teeth, his face showed a murderous look.

That's food!That's food!It is life-saving food!

How can life and death be destroyed?
Langya Wang Clan!

Touching his face with his hands, he continued, "We have no food. So I robbed the Acropolis of food and killed some people."

Fuchen was taken aback again.Emotions were extinguished like fire, and cold to the bone.

Should have thought of it earlier.

The Acropolis was the city that Liu Shen attacked ten days ago, and it was also the sixth city that was recovered.

But now, the city is useless.

She didn't ask how much was killed and how.Just feel cold.

The gears are already turning.

The hand on the face suddenly covered the eyes.

Fuchen felt, "I didn't cry." It was just that I was powerless.

Liu Shen didn't say anything, just covered her eyes - he didn't want to see her expression.I don't want to see any sad and helpless expressions, as if saying: You are useless.

Useless.

How to deal with millions of souls?

The flood has reached the middle reaches, and it only takes three or four days to completely block it, and no matter how hard it is to catch up, it will not be able to catch up with the last gap.

After Liu Shen left, Jing appeared in the small courtyard and said, "King Liu has been informing everyone these days that the Lan River broke its embankment, and he wants to go to Yixing and Wuxing alive. A large number of people have already flocked to the border of Weixi River , across the Lan River."

"Although the people in the Acropolis were killed, what King Liu ordered at that time was: kill the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled. According to the number of people killed, the food that was robbed was only a few thousand people, a thousand loads of food. Most of the food was not move."

"What do you want to say?" Fuchen said.

Jing looked sad, she knew that the princess couldn't see it, so she let herself keep her expression.Looking outside the small courtyard wall, the sky was smudged reddish, and it was almost night, "Liu Wang also told the army that if they want to leave, each person can take half a bucket of rice, but there is a requirement that before crossing the Lan River, If you encounter old, weak, sick and disabled people on the road, you must kill ten of them. If anyone wants to report their names and reasons, it can be said that the ghost king Liu Shen is under the army, and the ghost king issued an order, and the little ghost begs for his life."

"..." Floating dust.

Jing continued, "The army has dispersed, only a few thousand people are still following King Liu. This Wuhe city was also empty the day before yesterday. The backyard of the palace is clean."

"Why didn't you leave?" Fuchen asked.

"There is always someone who has to bear the crime. There are also people who are willing to follow. It's the same in the palace and hell." Jing said.

Fu Chen was silent.
