I will lead the whole village to occupy the land and become the king.

Jiang Qinyu slept very uneasily that night and had several bizarre dreams. In the dreams, she was like a floating duckweed, with no place to go, and her heart was always empty.

The scene changed many times. The last scene before Jiang Qinyu woke up was Lu Yanzheng, covered in blood, smiling at her.

"Madam, the general has not returned home all night. Miss Yu asked you if you would like to bring him some food." Uncle Chen's voice came from outside the house.

Jiang Qinyu shook her head, shaking off the chaotic emotions in her dream, and then she raised her voice and replied, "Uncle Chen, please ask Miss Yu to go back. I will go and bring food to the general in a while."

It's really funny that Yu Hanyan cares so much about other people's husbands. Those who don't know her would think she knows the rules very well. She would ask her, the legal wife, before delivering food.

In fact, without Jiang Qinyu following her, Yu Hanyan couldn't even get close to the city wall, let alone deliver the food to Lu Yanzheng.

The army also provides food, but during wars, they only distribute dry rations.

Uncle Zhao prepared some hot food, intending to send it to Lu Yanzheng, but Yu Hanyan found out about it and wanted to send it on his behalf. How could Uncle Zhao agree? But he couldn't refuse either, so he brought the person to Uncle Chen, which led to the scene where Uncle Chen came to question Jiang Qinyu.

"Miss Yu, did you hear that? Please go back." Uncle Chen said to Yu Hanyan indifferently, holding a lunch box in his hand.

Yu Hanyan bit her lower lip lightly, her voice choking with sobs, "Uncle Chen, why are you also..."

Just now she went to the kitchen to get the lunch box, and Uncle Zhao also said that if anything should be delivered, it should be Madam's turn to do it. Couldn't she share Madam's worries?

"Miss Yu is worried about the general, isn't Madam worried too? There is a war going on up ahead, not everyone can go there. Miss Yu, it's better for you to go back." Uncle Chen was almost losing his patience.

Yu Hanyan stood for a while, her hands hidden in her sleeves clenched into fists, she lowered her head and whispered, "Then Hanyan will go back."

By the time Jiang Qinyu got dressed and came out, Yu Hanyan had already left.

"Madam, please send it to the general first. It's not far by car, and it's not too late to have breakfast when you come back." Uncle Chen suggested.

It was still early at this time, and he felt really sorry for the general, so he had to shamelessly let his wife down first.

Jiang Qinyu didn't care, but she thought of the last scene in her dream, so she took the food box from Uncle Chen and said, "Uncle Chen, please watch over Shufan and Pan'er while they finish their breakfast."

After saying that, Jiang Qinyu went to the gate.

Xiao Wu was already sitting in the carriage waiting. When he saw that it was Jiang Qinyu coming, this fool actually stretched his neck to look back, "Hey, where's Miss Yu?"

Jiang Qinyu said with a forced smile, "It's not appropriate for a girl like her to go there. I asked her to go back."

"Oh! Madam, now that you mention that, it dawned on me that the general did say that women are not allowed to enter and leave important military areas at will." Xiao Wu slapped his head and said in annoyance.

Jiang Qinyu didn't bother to care about him and got into the car.

The carriage soon arrived near the city wall. Jiang Qinyu saw that many houses in this area were still smoking. It must be that the enemy army fired rockets into the city.

The soldiers sat on the ground in a very unkempt manner, leaning against the wall, staggering here and there and munching on their dry food listlessly. Because it was too cold, they stamped their feet and rubbed their hands from time to time.

Jiang Qinyu felt very uncomfortable. These were the people who protected the people of the entire city while she was still asleep last night.

But despite all the hard work, they still can’t get enough food or warm clothes. Where is justice in this world?

Seeing Jiang Qinyu and Xiaowu coming over, someone who knew Xiaowu directly made way for them and brought them in front of Lu Yanzheng.

At this time, Lu Yanzheng was still standing on the city wall, but there were two charcoal braziers at his feet, and the soldiers guarding the city took turns to come over and warm themselves by the fire.

"Why are you here?" Lu Yanzheng stood up immediately when he saw Jiang Qinyu. Seeing that she was not wearing much, he was about to take off his cloak, but was stopped by Jiang Qinyu.

"I'm not cold, you can put it on." Jiang Qinyu handed him the lunch box and, to prove that she was not cold, she took the initiative to grab his hand and said, "Look, I didn't lie to you, hurry up and eat."

She was wearing a down jacket, which looked thin on the outside, but was actually much warmer than other people.

Lu Yanzheng felt relieved when he felt the warmth in her hand. He took her hand and led her to an open space. He leaned her against the city wall, holding a bowl and eating while looking outside the city.

"Was the situation serious last night?" Jiang Qinyu couldn't help but ask as she looked at the mess around her.

Lu Yanzheng swallowed the food in his mouth before replying, "It's okay. The sudden drop in temperature disrupted their offensive and gave us some room to buffer."

When the Dayuan and Western Qiang armies attacked last night, the temperature kept dropping. In the end, their soldiers could hardly hold their weapons, so they called off the attack halfway through.

But the border troops also faced the same dilemma. They were also cold and almost couldn't hold their weapons. However, because they were the defenders, they had a natural advantage and were able to block the first wave of attacks.

This time, the offensive of the Dayuan and Western Qiang coalition forces was even more fierce than last time. Lu Yanzheng couldn't even imagine whether they could have held on last night if there hadn't been a sudden drop in temperature.

The only thing to be thankful for was that the backup plan he had arranged came in handy, and the enemy's plan to attack at a weak point was thwarted. After that, the two sides engaged in a thorough and tough battle.

Although Lu Yanzheng said it simply and passed it over in one sentence, Jiang Qinyu was not stupid and of course knew that the truth was not that simple.

"You guys guard the city gate. I promise to take people to plant the sweet potatoes well. In no more than five months, and at the earliest three months, we can supply the people in the city and the army." Jiang Qinyu said seriously.

Lu Yanzheng looked at her and asked, "Sweet potatoes can be mature in three months?"

This was something he didn't expect.

"If the temperature is right, it will take three months, but now the temperature has dropped, which will have an impact. However, I will try to find a way to harvest this batch of sweet potatoes in three months." Jiang Qinyu said as she thought.

It is too late to burn earthworms in the sweet potato field, but it is still possible to build a greenhouse. As long as it is operated properly, a good harvest will not be a problem.

Lu Yanzheng said: "If we save the food in the border town now, we can last for another four months at most."

If the sweet potatoes mature later, he will have to find a way to buy food from other places.

However, food prices are now so high that in many places you can't even buy food with silver. The future of the border town is not optimistic.

Jiang Qinyu also thought of this and fell silent for a moment.

She has a system and a mall. If no one asks about the source of the supplies, she can use the points earned from the system to support the people in this city.

But she knew she couldn't do that.

Once the system is exposed, she will be unacceptable to the world.

Maybe no one will care about this famine year now, but what about in the future?

There are countless ungrateful people in this world, and she doesn't want to risk her own safety.

"The temperature is dropping, so I'll have someone start the kiln to make charcoal. Remember to remind Uncle Chen to go get it. You guys just stay in the mansion and try not to go out, and you'll be fine." Lu Yanzheng finished his meal quickly and handed the lunch box to Jiang Qinyu.

Jiang Qinyu nodded, "Don't worry about the mansion, we will all take good care of it."

She didn't say anything more and walked back with the lunch box.

Lu Yanzheng looked at the direction she left and didn't speak for a long time.

……

After Jiang Qinyu returned, she immediately went to the river.

Last night, Qi Wu had organized people to build several straw huts by the river as a place to stay for people who were on night watch and patrolling the sweet potato fields.

Seeing Jiang Qinyu coming, Qi Wu immediately led his men forward.

"Madam, we are here. If there is anything, I will go to the general's mansion to find you. You don't have to come here in person." Qi Wu said sincerely.

They are all grown men, and it is okay for them to be exposed to the wind and sun outside, but the lady is a weak woman, and it is not good for her to go out like this all the time.

Jiang Qinyu shook her head. "It's getting colder now, and the sweet potatoes need to be kept warm..."
