Jiaohua

Chapter 144
Ji Hong didn't intend to talk about the second matter.

He was still smiling, leaning back, propping up one leg to support his right forearm, sitting freely and freely, shaking his head.

"What do you mean, sir?" He Chuanjiang looked at him.

"This first thing, if you think it can be done, I will help you immediately."

He Chuanjiang was taken aback for a moment, completely unable to grasp what kind of temperament he was: "Then, the second and third..."

"Do you think you can do the first one?" Ji Hong interrupted him.

The first one is not difficult. Compared with digging so many puddles for several days, digging a grave is a piece of cake.

However, He Chuanjiang always felt uneasy about the person in front of him, he was too perverse and absurd, and his temperament was difficult to figure out.

"Before dusk tonight, Lin Yao's army will be here, are you sure you still have to hesitate here?" Ji Hong looked at him, "You are running out of ammunition and food, how can their life be better, and their terrain Even worse, if the rain continues to fall, let alone achieve any great cause, I am afraid that I will be drowned in Wanshanguan. At the beginning, these people gathered together to revolt because they wanted to survive, and now they will naturally come here to look for it because they want to survive. You guys, you don’t know this. But the people in the city don’t like it. I think what you’re most worried about now is that after these rebels come, the people in the city should join forces and rush to open the city gate. When the time comes, you These regular troops are probably the 'rebellious troops' that everyone shouts and beats."

He Chuanjiang did not speak, feeling heavy.

"However, Zhao Zhen was born stubborn and refused to abandon the city. He even ordered the whole city to be sealed off. Now that the people are not allowed to go out, they are living in prison and starving at home. How much resentment they have in their hearts, you must be so afraid now." Ji Hong As he spoke, he pulled his lips together and smiled, "Think about it, you have traveled all the way here to provide disaster relief, protected this vast city, and prevented hundreds of thousands of people in the city from starving and starving like the desolate people in the countryside. As a result, They end up colluding with the rebels to deal with you, are you disappointed?"

He Chuanjiang shook his head: "Things that haven't happened yet, it can't be said to be chilling."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and saluted: "What is the method that Mr. said?"

"So, what is important, do you agree?"

He Chuanjiang breathed out slowly, and said: "The matter of suppressing the bandits in Chongyi went very smoothly, and there are very few bandits left over there, so it may not be necessary for the general to come forward for this matter, I can also deploy people or entrust friends to help over there." Sir found the body."

"Okay," Ji Hong's eyes brightened, "I believe in Junshi He's responsibility."

He sat up straighter, and continued: "Master He, do you know where Peifeng's original garrisons are going, except for the Dasu Army Pioneer Camp that is guarding the city with your Huben Camp now?" Yet?"

"Northwest front dispatch." He Chuanjiang replied.

Ji Hong got up, raised his hand and lifted the dilapidated straw mat, revealing the broken wooden board underneath, brushed his sleeves on the wooden board, dipped his fingers in some rainwater, and began to draw on the wooden board.

The water in the cell is the same height as the cell in the hall, and there are only fourteen drainage holes in the entire hall, each of which is very small, as thick as three fingers.

He Chuanjiang stood in the water, his shirt was soaked with water, and half of his sleeves were wet. He looked at the map drawn by Ji Hong with a puzzled look on his face.

What is drawn above is the entire territory of Dagan.

"What do you mean, sir?" He Chuanjiang looked at Ji Hong and asked in puzzlement.

"Peifeng," Ji Hong stretched out his finger, "Three miles north of the official road here is the Dadukou, and the entire coast is now flooded. This is the east side," Ji Hong said with his finger Changing the direction, "From here to the east, Changting is another [-] miles, even if you have reached the northwest territory of Shoushi. Now this place is empty. There are more than [-] villages on this road, all of them are dead or fleeing. People are gone. And these gates are now guarded by heavy troops, unable to enter or exit."

He Chuanjiang nodded, still confused: "Why do you say this, sir?"

"You can't come in, you can't get out, including you," Ji Hong said with a meaningful smile, "There are so many big puddles outside the city, what did Zhao Zhen ask you to dig them for?"

He Chuanjiang understood instantly, and frowned: "You mean, we can't get out, and we will be forcibly stayed in the name of the plague?"

"Don't you think this is inevitable?" Ji Hong tapped his finger near Peifeng, "Why is the rescue delayed? Even if the court's rescue is delayed, where are the spontaneous donations from the righteous people?" You know, what kind of personalities Jiang Pingsheng and Guo Shu have, not to mention the storm and wind, even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire, they will not delay such a life-saving thing for a moment."

In fact, He Chuanjiang had given up hope for the so-called rescue for a long time, but he would also speculate about various possibilities, such as some heavy rain on the road, or the refugee rebels blocking him, so he chose a long way, but Ji Hong's These words directly made him depressed like a bludgeoning blow.

His face was still calm, but his voice became hoarse: "Should, no."

"Rescue items are more needed on the northwest front than here," Ji Hong looked at him, "rescue here will only beg for food, but you can choose to betray your white-eyed wolf at any time, or to support the long northwest border front, let those It is better for a soldier to work for himself and keep his glory and wealth for himself? You are the emperor and the princes and nobles in the court, how do you choose?"

"But, Zheng Guogong..."

"Zheng Guogong can handle it?" Ji Hong interrupted He Chuanjiang, "Facts speak louder than words, Mr. He, is your rescue here?"

As he spoke, Ji Hong shook his head, and pointed towards An Jiang, who was thousands of miles away from Peifeng: "Song Zhiyi turned his back on him, and the whole of Anjiang took the surname Song. Tian Dayao also turned his back, and the mountains more than 100 miles away from Yexunling took the surname Tian. The northern border It has long since been lost, the Northern Yuan army overwhelmed Yunhu Lake and Rongtang Gorge, and even broke through Pingyang Road at one point...Mr. He, with all due respect, how long do you think this big effort can last?"

"Sir, don't talk nonsense!" He Chuanjiang frowned.

"Am I talking nonsense, you know better than me in your heart," Ji Hongxuan smiled, "Do you know why I told you these things?"

He looked down at Peifeng City, whose color was gradually fading on the map, and said, "Since I'm an outcast, why bother to be righteous? In the current situation, the wise person's approach is to stop the loss in time, and at the same time, take care of yourself." Get what you need. Let Lin Yao get the land and people he wants, and let the people in the city decide whether to go or stay. You don't have to work hard here, drag yourself down, and lose your life. Abandoning the city is the best Of course," Ji Hong smiled again at this point, traced the contours on the plank that were about to disappear with his fingers, and said, "After abandoning the city, you can change from passive to active. After all, in this city The granary is still empty, and those mouths that want to eat are still open, when the time comes, the person who should worry about what to do with himself is the one who wants to capture Peifeng, what do you think?"

Ji Hong raised his eyes and looked at He Chuanjiang with a smile.
