Lin Jinghui clasped his fists and said, "I found it, but there's not much food, so save a little. Two bowls of porridge per person per day are only enough for these refugees to eat for three days!"

Zhao Junsheng quickly took out the map and looked at it, then looked up at Jiang Hui and asked, "Can we reach Fushui Pass in three days?"

Jiang Hui said: "It should be possible!"

Zhao Junsheng immediately said: "Well, you tell all the refugees now that there is not much food. We only have three days of food, and each person has two bowls of gruel per day. We must rush to Fushui Pass within three days, otherwise we will still be hungry." Stomach, we can only eat at Fushuiguan!"

"Yes!"

Jiang Hui immediately ran up to the city gate. Most of the city was occupied by the Dragon Guards. Only a few refugees came in, and most of them were still outside the city.

"Fellow folks, we have robbed the food at Jianmen Pass, but the food is only enough for all of us for three days, and three days is only enough for us to go to Fushui Pass, so we must arrive at Fushui Pass before the food runs out. Shuiguan, and then look for food in Fushuiguan. Now everyone, don’t crowd, don’t panic, pass through Jianmenguan one by one. Everyone stops at the south side of Jianmenguan to wait for food. I have sent people to set up a The pot stove can light a fire and cook porridge in no time!"

I heard that everyone had something to eat, and the refugees under the city wall calmed down. They entered the city in an orderly manner and were no longer crowded. Obviously, Jiang Hui played a very important role.

Zhao Junsheng's plan is to coerce these refugees to kill them in one go, and then spread from the center of Sichuan to the surroundings, but how can they control these refugees?Hope, life and food!

Zhao Junsheng only left a small number of troops to clean up Liu Songjun's corpses, weapons, bows and arrows. Most of the soldiers were sent to maintain the order of the refugees and protect the grain found in Jianmen Pass. These grains were all these refugees Their life-saving food must not be robbed by refugees in a swarm, otherwise his plan will not be realized.

It took a full hour for tens of thousands of refugees to pass through Jianmen Pass and reach the outside of the southern city wall. There were dense crowds of people waiting for the hot porridge to be cooked. Hundreds of strong men with sharp knives and bows and arrows gathered around a pile of burlap sacks. Around the food, strict vigilance was imposed on the refugees around.

Jiang Hui came over and said to the refugees: "Fellow folks, these grains are all the grains in Jianmen Pass, and they are all here. We need to rely on these grains to walk to Fushui Pass. I can guarantee that everyone can eat every meal." Drink a bowl of porridge, but if everyone loots it, then the vast majority of people will have nothing to eat and will starve to death. All those who want to rob food, I hope you give up this idea, because your approach will make You become everyone's public enemy, you will be outraged, and you will be beaten to death!"

Some refugees who were eyeing this pile of food hesitated for a moment after hearing this, then turned and left silently, waiting for the porridge to go.

As the fire got angry, the rice in the big pot was boiled, and the aroma of the porridge was cooked out, and scattered in all directions, and the refugees gathered together with clay bowls.

Jiang Hui immediately arranged for young and strong refugees to maintain order, and then asked all the refugees to line up to receive food. The more chaotic, the lower the efficiency. The more disciplined and organized, the higher the efficiency. This has been tested in practice.

"Don't squeeze, line up, line up, I guarantee that each of you will get a bowl of porridge. If you keep squeezing like this, many people won't be able to eat a bite until tomorrow. It's too time-consuming. Hurry up, line up!"

Jiang Hui led hundreds of young and strong refugees through a pass of slaves, and finally got all the refugees to line up to receive food in order.

The number of pots is limited, and three batches of porridge were cooked in a row, and finally everyone got a bowl of hot porridge. With this bowl of hot porridge, the spirits of the refugees are different. This is a life-saving porridge ah!

This bowl of porridge directly increased Jiang Hui's prestige among the refugees. Except for a few refugees who were dissatisfied with his control of food, most people began to support him. Until now, Zhao Junsheng really controlled these refugees. The things that come down are much better.

Chapter 976 Turning to Zitong

Zhao Junsheng watched the refugees turn away with pottery bowls filled with gruel, each of them drank with relish, his face full of intoxication, and he always felt a little uncomfortable.

But this is not the time to be sad, Zhao Junsheng whispered to Li Bao: "Send someone to tell Wei Chong, the gatekeeper of Jiameng, and ask him to send a deputy to bring 200 people over. After we leave with the refugees, quickly Take over Jianmen Pass and let them remember to bring food and grass! Also, let Wei Chong quickly send people to Nanzheng to find Lu Shuang, and the follow-up troops must follow up quickly, and there are food and grass supplies! At the same time, let the driving official supervise the Guanzhong side Mobilize troops to speed up the march!

As for the [-] cavalry I brought, let Yang Lie follow Lu Shuang from the rear of the garrison troops conscripted from various places in Liangzhou. These cavalry cannot play a role in such terrain, and they must rely on infantry to attack the city. They can play a role The only place where it is located is in the Chuanzhong Basin! "

"No!" Li Bao promised, then turned around to make arrangements.

In order to hurry up, and to prevent the refugees from discovering that they are soldiers of the Qiang Kingdom, Zhao Junsheng decided to wait for the refugees to eat this porridge before setting off, and then camp on the spot in the afternoon and dusk to make meals.

When the refugees were almost finished eating, Zhao Junsheng asked the soldiers of the Dragon Guards to drink a bowl of porridge. Jiang Hui and the thousands of young and strong refugees organized by him to maintain order also began to eat at this time. People received some preferential treatment. They helped Jiang Hui maintain order and control the refugees. Each of them was given two bowls of gruel. Although they were not full, they ate more than other refugees, so these people were even more lonely. Fate is obedient.

Zhao Junsheng sent someone to find Jiang Hui and told him: "It's almost noon now, it's getting late, tell the refugees to continue on their way, we only have three days!"

"Yes!"

With a promise, Jiang Hui climbed up the south city wall and shouted to the refugees below: "Folks, we only have three days of food, and we can't afford to delay, so we can only hurry on our way immediately and arrive at Fushui Pass within three days to find the food." Grain, if you delay for a day, you will be hungry for a day! Now everyone is heading towards the Fushui Pass. Brothers in the food protection team are listening, put all the food on the wheelbarrow and push it away. Be careful not to fall off the cliff It's time! Let's go!"

After Jiang Hui finished shouting loudly, he greeted in a loud voice, "Let's go, let's go!"

If someone takes the lead, others will follow. The refugees who had just eaten a bowl of hot porridge gained some strength and began to march towards Fushui Pass with their families. Seventy-eight thousand people pulled out nearly ten A few miles of teams.

Before finally leaving, Zhao Junsheng asked Li Bao to leave 200 Dragon Guards temporarily stationed at Jianmen Pass, wait for Wei Chong to send someone to take over, and follow up after completing the handover.

Food has saved many lives, but disease cannot be driven away by food. In just one afternoon, dozens of refugees died on the way. Some people fell to the ground and never got up again. .

Jiang Hui had no choice but to order the bodies of these refugees who died of illness to be dug and buried to avoid plague.

On some roads, the terrain is dangerous, and there are always people who accidentally fall down, and there are screams, and then silence.

In the evening, Jiang Hui, under Zhao Junsheng's instruction, found a large flat area for the refugees to rest, and organized people to set up pots and stoves to cook porridge for dinner, and sent people to dig wild vegetables and fern roots, and mixed them into gruel It can eat more people, and there is some starch in the fern root, which can fill the stomach.

While eating, Lin Jinghui touched Zhao Junsheng and reported in a low voice: "According to the news just received, there are only more than 200 defenders at Fushui Pass, and all the others have been transferred to quell the chaos in central Shu!"

"What?" Zhao Junsheng was taken aback, "Is the person who ordered the dispatch of troops out of his mind? Fushui Pass is one of the most important passes in northern Sichuan, and he actually directly drew [-]% of the troops?"

Lin Jinghui said in a low voice: "I guess the reaction from the refugees in the middle of Sichuan must be very serious, otherwise the government would not have transferred all the defenders of Fushui Pass away!"

Zhao Junsheng said: "I originally wanted to bring these refugees along to make money at the Fushui Pass. After all, it is a dangerous pass. Sending troops to attack will always cost a lot of money. But I didn't expect that the Fushui Pass, which originally had 500 people, is now only closed." There are 200 people left! Come on, find Li Bao and Jiang Hui, hurry up!"

The two rushed over quickly, and after greeting Zhao Junsheng, Zhao Junsheng said directly: "I just received the news that the number of guards at Fushui Pass has decreased, and there are only 200 left! Such a small force is no longer worth our coercion." [-] to [-] refugees are going to hunt it! So I decided not to go to Fushui Pass, and with our current food supply, we can only go to Zitong!"

Li Bao was a little worried: "Your Majesty, we only have 1000 people now, but if we attack Zitong, Fushuiguan can send troops to cut off our way back! Moreover, Zitong is the seat of Guanghan County, so we should have some troops. Once we attack Blocked..."

Zhao Junsheng waved his hand: "Don't worry, there are only 200 people at the Fushui Pass. They are not strong enough to guard the Fushui Pass. How can they have the courage to cut off our way back? When we take Zitong, we can send hundreds of people over to force us to surrender." They. You should know that we are refugees now, not soldiers. These [-] to [-] refugees don’t know our identities. How can those people from the Bashu government know our identities? As for Dazitong, it’s just a county. So what if it's a county town, our Thousand Dragon Guards are not vegetarians, everyone can count as ten, and still can't beat Zitong?"

Everyone is right after thinking about it, it seems that worrying is unnecessary.

Zhao Junsheng said to Jiang Hui: "The next thing is to rely on you. There is no danger in going to Zitong. You have to persuade the refugees to go to Fu County together!"

Jiang Hui nodded: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will go to those temporary subordinates to persuade them later, as long as I persuade them, they will spread the news, and the refugees will follow!"

Zhao Junsheng patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, pay attention to the way you speak, go!"

Zhao Junsheng said to Li Bao: "The mobilization of 3000 soldiers and horses from all over Liangzhou is only two days later than ours. Their marching speed must be faster than the refugees, so I conclude that within two days at most, the follow-up 3000 people will pass. Jianmen Pass, you send someone to tell the guards at Jianmen Pass, after the 3000 men and Yang Lie’s [-] cavalry arrive, send hundreds of people to force the Southern Dynasty defenders to surrender at Fushui Pass!"

"understand!"

In the middle of the night, Jiang Hui took advantage of the darkness and came over to report to Zhao Junsheng: "Your Majesty, everything has been arranged. I will go directly to Zitong after breakfast tomorrow morning, not Fushuiguan!"

"Okay, well done!"

From Jianmenguan to Zitong, it took three days to walk faster, and the refugees happened to have three days of food left.

Along the way, Jiang Hui kept cheering and agitating the refugees, telling them to speed up and must arrive at Zitong before the food was eaten. They could only starve to death. Driven by hunger, the refugees were completely dominated by Jiang Hui.

Tens of thousands of refugees finally arrived outside Zitong City on the third night despite Jiang Hui and others' instigation.

With the arrival of so many refugees, the momentum was not small, and the lights on Zitong City were quickly lit up, and all the troops in the city were transferred to the city wall to strengthen the defense.

Officials such as the prefect and lieutenant of Guanghan County rushed over one after another, but when they saw the densely packed refugees under the city, they all gasped.

"There... there are probably [-] refugees here. Where did these people come from?" Jun Cheng said in surprise.

The prefect frowned: "There is no one hundred thousand, but there are still seventy to eighty thousand. It seems that they came from the direction of Jianmen Pass, but didn't those refugees flood into the Northern Dynasty? How did they come back?"
