The daughter of a general is reborn to save the whole family of the marquis
Chapter 408 A heavy blow
After the heavy rain, the temperature in Yanzhou City was no longer so hot. After checking the existing food and grass, Runxue was not in a good mood, but not to the point of being irritable.
She said: "Yizhou City was originally in our hands, but Chu Heyi came and took away what was in our hands. As a result, we are now short of food and grass. Not only are our soldiers suffering, but even our people are suffering."
Duan Feichi echoed: "Yes!"
Runxue sighed and said, "Fortunately, the autumn harvest is coming soon. The rice in our Yan and Lan cities is growing well this year. It will definitely be a bumper harvest. When the rice is harvested this year, our food and grass will be able to last for a while."
Duan Feichi suddenly felt a heavy burden on his shoulders, so he didn't say anything.
As expected, Runxue stopped and looked at him, then changed the subject: "So, the mission of driving Chu Heyi out of Yizhou City is now entrusted to General Duan. Whether our soldiers and civilians can have enough food this winter depends entirely on you!"
Her beautiful and determined eyes were full of trust in him. Duan Feichi was immersed in this feeling of trust and blurted out: "I will definitely not let Princess Cheng down!"
Runxue patted his shoulder and said, "My husband's revenge is waiting for General Duan to avenge him. Unfortunately, I am a weak woman. If I could go to the battlefield, I would definitely not let General Duan fight alone."
Duan Feichi said: "Chu Heyi is not a woman. Princess Cheng does not need to compare herself with her. Besides, I... I..."
Runxue smiled and said, "Besides, General Duan likes women like me, right?"
Her tone was very gentle, as if with a hook. Duan Feichi, who was still young and unmarried, blushed immediately and felt a surge of blood in his body. Even if he was called the woman in front of him now, he would not hesitate to go through fire and water.
Runxue moved closer to him, her lips pressed against his ear. The unique fragrance of a woman penetrated his nose, and Duan Feichi felt that he could no longer think.
He only heard Runxue's voice as gentle as water: "I also admire General Duan, he is strong and capable."
Wars have to be fought, power has to be sought, and handsome men have to be lured.
A quarter of an hour later, Runxue lay in Duan Feichi's arms again on the big bed in Prince Cheng's Mansion.
In early September, Chu Heyi led his troops to attack Yanzhou City, and Duan Feichi led his troops to fight back. The two sides fought fiercely and it was difficult to determine the winner for a while.
At this time, the people of Yan and Lan cities had already begun to harvest rice. Under the sun and in the breeze, the rice waves spread out layer by layer, and the people were busy bending over in the rice fields, swinging their sickles as fast as the soldiers on the battlefield.
Aunt Zhu had been cutting for a while and felt tired, so she stopped to rest and drink some herbal tea. She couldn't help but look in the direction of Yizhou City. Although she didn't see anything, she still didn't look away for a long time.
"Mom, I heard that the government is short of food and is waiting for us to hand over our newly harvested rice. Is that true?" asked the eldest son's wife.
Looking at her eldest daughter-in-law, Aunt Zhu thought of her eldest son, who had died on the battlefield in Lancheng a few years ago.
The eldest daughter-in-law has two sons. She never remarried and has always lived in the Zhu family.
"The last time Erlang came back, he said that the army was short of food and fodder. It shouldn't have been so short, it's all because the Crown Princess snatched away the food and fodder that belonged to our soldiers." said the second son's wife.
She and Zhu Jia Erlang had just given birth to a chubby daughter who was now crawling on the straw.
Aunt Zhu was very angry. Before King Cheng and his wife came, they were not starving, but they could not eat enough.
But after King Cheng and his wife came, they were able to have enough food to eat. However, the Crown Princess came and stole the food and fodder of King Cheng and his wife's army. This was really abominable.
Aunt Zhu waved her hand and said loudly, "What does it matter if we don't have food now? I believe that Princess Cheng and General Duan will eventually win the battle and lead us to a good life! Even if the army is short of food now, we still have enough to eat, right?"
The two daughters-in-law said, "Mother is right. Our lives will be better now that Prince Cheng and his wife are here. I'm sure that Princess Cheng will be able to solve the problem of food and grass in the upcoming wars and we won't have to worry about it."
The Zhu family is not the only one in Yan and Lan cities who have such thoughts.
Now, in Yan and Lan cities, except for women, almost everyone has gone to the battlefield.
In addition, after Runxue launched cement, the need for construction in various places and the large-scale production of crossbows and arrows provided local people with many opportunities to make money, and they had much more money in their pockets than before.
They even think that even if there is no food, they can buy food from other places.
But they overlooked the fact that when everyone has money, money becomes less valuable; when the war covers a large area, food becomes difficult to buy.
But now, they still have blind faith in Runxue, only because Runxue's arrival had brought earth-shaking changes to the cities of Yan and Lan.
A prosperous and flourishing life is just the most simple wish of every ordinary citizen.
Their minds were filled with busy farm work and the pressure of making a living every day. They did not even think about how miserable the local people would be if Yizhou City was defeated.
Even if someone thought of it, who would care about others in such a chaotic world?
Therefore, many people, like Runxue, "simplely" hope that Duan Feichi can win the battle this time.
During the rice drying season, there were several heavy rains. When the rainstorms were completely over, a cold wind blew from the north, and many leaves in the yard fell overnight.
When Runxue got up early, the latest news came from the front: Duan Feichi was defeated again!
This is the fourth time Duan Feichi and Chu Heyi have fought each other, and they have been defeated time and time again...
"Princess Cheng, we are running low on food and fodder!"
"Princess Cheng, the weather is getting cold and the soldiers are in urgent need of winter clothes!"
For the first time, Runxue was so angry that she knocked over the teacup beside her. Was she really no match for Xie Lin and Chu Heyi? Why did she keep losing after planning for so long?
Can modern technology and thought not defeat ancient thought and technology? Why?!
She called Shuangjiang over and said, "It's winter now. What's the situation in Shengjing City?"
Shuangjiang shook her head: "Miss Tong did not send any news about the collapse of concrete buildings."
Runxue frowned, a cold light flashing in her eyes: "Not a single one? The city walls collapsed, the roads collapsed, the houses collapsed, nothing?"
Frost immediately knelt down.
Runxue took a deep breath and said, "Perhaps the message sent by Tong Xiling was hijacked on the way. It is impossible that no building has collapsed. Send someone to check the situation in person."
"Yes!" Frost was silent for a moment, hesitating to speak.
Runxue shouted angrily: "Speak!"
Runxue had never expected that what Shuangjiang said next would be such a heavy blow to her.
