Chapter 508 Rick's Determination
Facing the Mongolia commander, Liu Xi naturally had a flattering smile on his face.

"It would be the best if the commander-in-chief can get these. What we discussed with King Shunyi has been accomplished, right? This proves that we are the most honest. After that, we will take over these businesses again. In the future, we will have to Let King Shunyi take care of you! Hahahahaha!"

Looking at Liu Xi's appearance, the leader suddenly showed a sneer at the corner of his mouth.

"It's just that they don't have a lot of food in their homes!"

Liu Xi smiled indifferently and said, "Why is there so little food? Each of these families digs the ground to store food in their homes, not to mention having more food one by one. Marshal, you may not know it, even if the officers and soldiers don't have enough food." Food, the mudlegs are all starving to death, they will not be without food, if there is no rain in the sky for three years, they will not starve to death!"

"No, no, we found all the food in their cellars. It is indeed quite a lot, but for the hundreds of thousands of people under King Shunyi, the food is still a little less."

Liu Xi felt something was wrong.

"Master, what do you mean?"

The leader remembered what King Shunyi had told him before, and smiled coldly.

"How about, you guys also give some food to the king, the king has more food, so that he can survive the winter and do business with you better, right?
I've heard that you families not only hide food at home, but also hide it in the mountains, don't you?There are many more Kobe houses in the mountains! "

Liu Xi froze for a moment, and then a deep sense of fear swept his heart.

"This... who is talking nonsense? We, we have also suffered disasters, and we don't have much food!"

This kind of confidential event is generally only known to people with some status in the family, and most people don't know it yet. How do these Mongolians know?And listen to what they mean, could it be...

Sure enough, the leader laughed, raised his foot and kicked Liu Xi to the ground, then pulled out his own dagger and laid it across Liu Xi's neck, the cold touch stimulated Liu Xi's skin.

"Don't pretend, how much grain you have, you can fool your officials, but you can't fool our king, the king can tell you, this time, you have to bring back all the grain in Datong. Promise not to kill your people, otherwise, including your people, all will be killed, food, we will find it ourselves!"

"What... this... King Shunyi didn't say that!"

"That's what I said! Taking such a small thing is like sending us away? Why are you Han people so cunning and hateful? Mr. Liu, tell me, if you throw it into the fire, you will roast it Will there be more tar than the one named Ma just now?"

As soon as these words came out, Liu Xi froze instantly from body to soul. Just now, the top man of the Ma family was tied up by these Mongolians, and two spears were pierced from the shoulders to the soles of the feet. It looks like it was roasted on the fire...

Liu Xixi was gloating, but now, he regretted being born in this family.

"Come on, get on the grill!"

The leader didn't talk nonsense, he was about to get on the grill, and immediately a few Mongolian soldiers came up with a grinning grin, directly tied up Liu Xi, and then carried him up, and two more Mongolian soldiers held up two spears He walked over and aimed at Liu Xi's shoulder.

"I'll give you one last chance, do you want to say it? Food or life?"

Liu Xi trembled all over and couldn't say a word.

"Stab down!"

The leader gave the order without hesitation.

Liu Xi completely collapsed.

"Don't!!!! I said! I said! I said it all! Don't kill me!!!!"

After crying like ghosts and howling like wolves, Liu Xi honestly explained the location of the valleys and caves where Liu's grain was stored, as well as other places he knew where the grains of the various families were stored.

Those valleys and caves are inaccessible mountainous areas, with cold winds all year round and little rainfall. Digging a hole in such a place to store food is the best choice.

It can be saved for ten or twenty years once it is saved. When there is a big buyer, it will be sold, and if there is no one, it will be hidden, and it will not pay taxes. It's better to have one less thing, spending money to bribe officials also needs to be invested, why not choose a safe way to store it?

Even if Mei Guozhen wanted to search everywhere, he couldn't find anything, because they really didn't have much food reserves at home, and they were all in hidden places in the valley. Those who don't know certainly don't know that those barren mountains and wild mountains are actually real grain mountains. Those who know don't need to say more.

Soon, the leader took thousands of Ming army prisoners and strong Han men who were captured along the way, and pulled the trailer, cattle, horses and other livestock to find food. The distraught Liu Xi pointed out the caves where the food was hidden, and the leader went in with a torch. At that moment, he was shocked in an instant.

That is really a mountain of grain!
That is directly calculated by using thousands of stones and ten thousand stones of grain!The grain stored in any valley can help the Ming army or the Tumed tribe survive this cold winter, and I don’t know how many such valleys there are. This is just Datong, not the whole of Shanxi.

There is no rain for three years, and there are ten thousand stones in the surplus grain. Such a statement is really not an exaggerated rhetorical technique, but a real self-confidence. Without this self-confidence, who would dare to say this?

The leader immediately laughed wildly, and immediately sent someone to report to Lalik who was organizing the siege of Datong Town at that time. When Lalik came to see him on a flying horse, he also laughed wildly.

As long as you give some of the food here to that woman, let us survive this winter, I can't bring the whole tribe here, you are really my lucky star!Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha!

Ralek has collected a huge amount of food from five valleys, which is the savings of more than a dozen families here for more than ten years. Once it was all cheaper, Ralek, after Ralek got these grains, his back straightened up immediately. If he wants to win Datong, he can just leave. Now, he doesn't think so.

He has already betrayed the Ming court, a complete betrayal, and the Ming court will never forgive him again. If he continues to stay here, it is hard to say that he will not suffer bloody revenge from the Ming court in the future.

Why not take this opportunity to transfer the base area with a large amount of food, and go to other places to live a happy life. With so much food and so many slaves, it is enough for them to attack a few small tribes and rob their territories, so why stay in the This kind of place is waiting for the Ming army to retaliate?

So, why don't they just get a big ticket, grab it in one go, and then escape to Mobei, go to the west to grab a better territory, away from the Ming court, so that they can't find a place to retaliate if they want to revenge, wouldn't it be beautiful?
