    ,

    In mid-October.

    Fei Ruhe took a boat all the way and led his troops to the territory of Yizhou.

    Standing on the bow of the boat, Fei Ruhe looked blankly at the scenery on both sides of the river with a dull expression.

    Yizhou is governed by the state, under the jurisdiction of Feixian County and Tancheng County.

    When I was in the border of Tancheng, although it was miserable there, it was not very different from northern Jiangsu.

    The boat sailed to the northwest of Tancheng, and the situation became more and more terrifying.

    As far as the boundary of Yizhou, the content of the history book is translated into vernacular: "Locusts are all over the mountains and fields, piled up one foot thick. The leaves are all eaten up, and the ground is thousands of miles away. The people dig grass roots and gnaw bark, father and son eat each other, bones are everywhere, and babies are abandoned.  Dao, there are people who put up bids and sell their heads everywhere, and there are countless corpses piled up in the ravine."

    More and more soldiers stood on the boat and looked at both sides, dumbfounded and speechless.

    Deputy General Wan Sitong muttered: "No wonder the bandits didn't come to capture this place, no wonder Zuo Liangyu didn't send troops here. Why are we here in Yizhou?"

    At this moment, the locusts have disappeared, and there is no scene of locusts piled up a foot thick.

    But looking at the bare vegetation, the villages along the coast are deserted, and even the big landlords have fled.

    In the evening, I went ashore to cook, and after a short walk, I saw bones.  Sometimes it can even be guessed that several members of the family died, because the bones of the adults were holding the bones of the children.

    The fleet arrived in a small town with a large army, which has also become a ghost town.  All the residents of the town disappeared, not starving to death, but fleeing, and no one could withstand the robbing of the hungry people.

    Perhaps the wealthy households along the way were also scared away by the hungry people, and no matter how high the courtyard wall was, they could not stop the hungry people.

    As the fleet was approaching Yizhou City, there were more and more living people. There were at least 20,000 to 30,000 hungry people gathered outside Yizhou City.

    These hungry people looked at the fleet with numb eyes and expressionless faces.

    Fei Ruhe suddenly smelled the smell of meat, he was surprised at first, then he came to his senses, and then he felt nauseous, his stomach was overwhelmed and he wanted to spit it out.

    The Datong soldiers and civilian husbands disembarked and landed. The city gate opened quickly, and an official led the crowd to kneel down to welcome them, crying loudly: "General, you are here!"

    Fei Ruhe asked: "What's your name? What's your position?"

    The official wiped his tears and replied: "The next official is Liang You, the Tong Zhi of Yizhou."

    Fei Ruhe was furious, and asked, "Where is Zhizhou?"

    Liang You replied, "I ran away with the money."

    "Where is the defense?" Fei Ruhe asked again.

    "Run away too." Liang You replied.

    Fei Ruhe was furious: "The fuck is gone, why do you still keep it!"

    Liang You said: "The lower official is the same prefect of the state, and the prefect ran away, and the lower official is the local parents. How can there be any reason for parents to abandon their children? The lower official sells their belongings, and begs the wealthy households in the state to collect money and food, but it is still useless.  Ah, there are too many hungry people outside the city. Nowadays, people in the city starve to death every day, so I can only can only"

    Hearing what he said, most of Fei Ruhe's anger dissipated, and he asked, "What can I do?"

    Liang You said in tears: "We can only clean up the unclaimed dead bodies in the city every day, and throw them outside the city for the hungry people to cook and eat."

    "Ouch!"

    A Datong soldier next to him couldn't hold back, and vomited from nausea on the spot.

    Fei Ruhe asked: "Do the wealthy households in the city still have food?"

    Liang You replied: "The rich family doesn't have any surplus grain, only the grain merchant's warehouse has some."

    "Go to town!"

    Fei Ruhe ordered: "Twenty guards are left on each boat to guard the food and prevent robbery."

    The soldiers of Datong took over the defense of the city, and at the same time dispersed to maintain law and order in the city.

    When he came to the state office, the military medical officer Hao Dadian said: "General, there are too many dead people, and the corpses are not buried. Beware of a big epidemic next year!"

    Fei Ruhe immediately woke up: "How to prevent it?"

    Hao Dadian said: "First, burn all the corpses immediately; second, order the people to boil their clothes in boiling water; third, throw lime in places where there are many dead."

    "Okay!" Fei Ruhe said.

    Li Shikui, a missionary officer, said: "I suggest that missionary officers in the military take over government affairs. Each missionary officer will lead ten soldiers to do things, and the officials in the city will be ordered to cooperate with the officials. Outside the city, divide the hungry people into areas, and how many people can be accommodated in each area, so as to prevent hungry people from appearing.  trouble."

    Fei Ruhe nodded and said, "Let's do it this way." After speaking, he asked Liang You, "How much is the food price in the city?"

    "Doumai two thousand." Liang You replied.

    Fei Ruhe sneered: "That's 20,000 yuan a stone of wheat, all of them rich and unkind. The grain merchant's warehouse"Preacher." The soldier replied.

    "Are they all scholars?" Liang You asked.

    The soldiers said: "It used to be enough to know 30 characters, but now you need to know 500 characters. Regiment-level missionaries can at least know 1,000 characters, and they must also learn addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. If a missionary teacher wants to be promoted, he must be able to read. Not only learn by himself, but also  Take us to learn, now I know more than 60 characters."

    Liang You asked again: "What do missionaries do?"

    The soldier explained: "Teach us the truth."

    "What's the point?" Liang You asked.

    "Soldiers are fighting for the common people, and the common people are their parents. The great unity of the world means that everyone has fields to farm, everyone has food to eat, and everyone has clothes to wear," said the soldier. "If you have any troubles, you can talk to the missionaries.  Write letters to your family and ask missionaries for help. The soldiers are all brothers, and the missionaries are our elder brothers!"

    Liang You didn't continue to ask, but pondered these words carefully.

    He is not a serious Jinshi, but a juren, and he was bought as a county magistrate.  Although the county magistrate was bought, there was no money in the distribution, and he was thrown to the damn magistrate of Shaanxi.

    At that time, when the bandits came, Liang You urged the people to defend the city, but they did so in a daze.

    The gentry in the city refused to let him go, and he served as a county magistrate in Shaanxi for six consecutive years, and he was able to defend the city every time.

    Liang You didn't understand the situation either, it seemed that the rogues were easy to deal with.

    Two years ago, he returned to Beijing after completing his exams, and was finally promoted to be a prefect of the state.  Then came the hellish drought and locust plague, two consecutive years of catastrophe, he couldn't bear to exploit the people, instead he sold off the property he brought.

    Liang You squatted by the moat, watching Datong soldiers appease the victims, and suddenly laughed happily.

    Suddenly there was a curse from behind: "Damn, I'm looking for you everywhere, hurry back to the city to help with things!"

    Liang You looked back, but it was Fei Ruhe who was scolding him.

    Liang You quickly stood up, but heard Fei Ruhe say: "I asked the officials and people in the city, you are a good official, and the escaped Zhizhou and the guard are corrupt officials. Follow me to do things well, and do a good job in disaster relief.  You can at least be a magistrate!"

    "Thank you, General, for your appreciation." Liang You was very happy. After taking refuge in Zhao Tianwang, his official position was only downgraded by one level.

    Fei Ruhe was very depressed. He came to fight the war, but now he has become a disaster relief worker.

    On Zhang Tieniu's side, the same is true.

    There was no battle to fight at all. Wherever they went, officials surrendered immediately, and then begged him for relief.

    If the Datong army goes to Henan, this situation will happen everywhere.

    What else?

    Leave tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of disaster victims unrescued, and let them fend for themselves?  That violates Datong theory!

    But once rescued, the food is not enough.

    In this case, Zhao Han had to make a choice.  How much food should be kept for war, how much food should be kept to accommodate the victims, and the territory should be continuously expanded while providing relief to the people.
