Chapter 430 "Planning and Selling First" Chicken and Tile Dog
In Li's Village, more than ten miles west of Wu'an County, Zhang Guangda laughed and said, "This general, Zhang Guangda, is just a pawn under my commander in chief. , was ordered to raise food in Li’s village.”

"It turned out to be Zhang Gueran. Dare I ask the general how the rations are raised?" Although Li Guangqi said it politely, her tone was quite disapproving.

"According to the military order of my family's commander-in-chief, I will never ask for your grain in vain. Now, I will buy 2000 shi of the grain stored in Erzhai for [-] taels of silver." Zhang Guangda said firmly, and there was no room for change.

Li Guangqi's eyes were narrowed, and after a long time, she finally opened her mouth and said: "Vice Chief Zhang led the army into our Zhongzhou to help suppress the bandits. How can I sit idly by and do my best? It's just that Wu'an has been suffering from severe drought for many years, and the rivers and lakes have dried up. Every time locust plagues raged, most of the grains planted were in vain.

Now there is not much food in the village, and life is difficult. Although I have the heart, I can't catch it. If a guerrilla attack comes, it's not easy for the general to return empty-handed. I should order my servants to prepare grain for the general. Fifty shi, with a little effort, there is no need to leave silver taels, how about it? "

Zhang Guangda was expressionless, but said coldly: "Nowadays, there is a severe drought in Zhongzhou, locust plagues are raging, and the people are in dire straits. The gentlemen in every village should be determined to serve the country, especially now when the country is in chaos.

My commander-in-chief has ordered that "those who close the shop will be matched, and those who buy by force will be beheaded". I hope that Li Juren will think twice, don't hit the edge of my family's commander-in-chief, if it leads to civil chaos in Wu'an, you will be guilty of gangsters! "

"Humph!"

Li Guangqi didn't take it seriously, and said: "Vice Chief Zhang speaks so loudly. Is this trying to force me to wait for good people and scholars to die? I want to write to the court and report the truth."

"You do your own thing. Today, the general will definitely raise five hundred shi of grain and go back to his mission." Zhang Guangda's tone was very firm.

Li Guangqi stared at him intently, and said sadly: "Zhang Guerzhan is only three people, so you are not afraid of the strong men in my village, leaving the three of you here?"

"Hahaha……"

Hearing the words, Zhang Guangda was heartbroken, and he said proudly: "When the giant deer was back, tens of thousands of Tartar captives failed to keep this general. You are a mere strongman in the village, which is tantamount to "inserting the mark." It's just a chicken and a dog that sells first!"

Li Guangqi was taken aback when he heard the words, and a wicked smile flashed on his face, but he also knew what Zhang Guangda said was true, but he didn't dare to take any action. He only stopped to think when he got up and walked to the window in the hall.

At this time, I heard Zhang Guangda say again: "The commander of my family has sent troops to [-] big forts around Wu'an to raise food. The kindness of my commander-in-chief, this general has no choice but to return empty-handed."

After a while, Li Guangqi seemed to have made up his mind. He turned around and asked, "Vice Chief Zhang is currently stationed in Wu'an County?"

"My family's commander-in-chief is stationed in the county seat. After three days, the food and grass are collected, and the army will start."

"Forget it, I have always admired the prestige of Deputy Chief Zhang. Now I will take out two hundred shi grains as military funds, and I will not accept money. I will do my best to suppress bandits and bandits for Deputy Chief Zhang. .” Li Guangqi said generously.

Zhang Guangda was unmoved, he still sat firmly in the big chair, and said word by word in a deep voice: "My commander-in-chief has an order to buy five hundred shi of grain and grain with 2000 taels of silver. Don’t dare to disobey the military order of my commander-in-chief.”

Li Guangqi was pacing back, but he was stunned when he heard the words. His eyes were cold, and he stared at Zhang Guangda. I will go to Wu'an in person to plead guilty to Vice Commander Zhang, and at the same time escort the grain into the city."

Zhang Guangda looked at him and said: "Since Li Juren said so, I will wait in Wujing tomorrow."

…………

"Master, do you really want to sell five hundred shi of grain to that officer?" Uncle Fu asked cautiously.

"Humph!"

Holding an exquisite small charcoal stove in her hand, Li Guangqi said angrily, "Where is buying grain, it is obviously robbery."

Uncle Fu went on to say, "So what if he doesn't sell it, that fellow officer really dares to attack our village?"

"Confused!"

Li Guangqi scolded softly, and continued: "I didn't know where the officers and soldiers were before, but now that they are confirmed to be Zhang Cheng's soldiers from the Xuanfu, how dare they resist."

He put down the charcoal stove on the table, and a servant stepped forward to take away the charcoal. Li Guangqi said again: "This man is fierce and cruel, and he is highly valued by the current sage. Don't say that my grand master is just a retired servant. Even the servant of the court can't bear this immediate loss."

"Hurry up and prepare five hundred shi of grain and grain, and load it into the truck tomorrow morning, and I will personally deliver it to the county."

…………

Zhang Cheng bought a total of more than 1 stones of grain and grain in various villages in Wu'an County. Adding the more than [-] stones he had saved in the city before, there were a total of more than [-] stones of grain and grain, enough for the people of Wu'an to survive this winter.

Li Guangqi from Lijiazhai personally escorted the grain cart. He claimed to donate [-] shi of grain and grain to help the army suppress the bandits. Zhang Cheng met Li Guangqi in the county office, praised him greatly, and even warmly invited him to live in Xuanfu , and even provide them with guards on the way.

However, Yang Wansheng from Beiliushi Village in Wu'an County and Du Sicai from Dujiazhuang Village in the south of the county refused to sell grain to Zhang Cheng, so he directly sent troops to rush into the village to search and arrest them. After receiving double the grain, he released the two of them.

On November [-]th, the two carts of Wei Zhice's chariot camp were loaded with [-] shi of grain and grain again, and slowly left Wu'an County.

Li Changsheng's Pro-Military Division C Bureau was left by Zhang Cheng in Wu'an County to assist Ji Youci in distributing grain and porridge. In name, it was to protect the grain in the city, but in fact it stayed to protect Ji Youci's safety.

"Today, the road is full of exile, and the wild is full of bones. The wind is miserable, the green of the ghost forest, and the green of the forest. The small bones of the flanks are scattered on the road. Every suburb, the feet are on it, slippery and loud, like on hemp straw. ..."

The army came all the way, and the villages, castles, fortresses and fortresses they passed through were either people competing for food, or people gathered together. This situation is unbearable to hear, this sight is unbearable.

On November [-]th, when Zhang Cheng's army entered Qishui, the whole army stared blankly at the hundreds of floating corpses floating on the river and going down the river. After being in the water for many days, I still haven't seen any swelling, and it looks like purgatory on earth.

Behind Zhang Cheng came the voices of sergeants from various bureaus: "Everyone has seen it. If there is no Deputy Commander Zhang on the North Road, your family will be the same as it is now. Either it will become the food of his mouth, or it will be like this." Life is better than death.

You all need to cherish the good days on the North Road now, work hard to fight loyally for Deputy Commander Zhang, and work hard to kill the thieves. You must not slack off. "

All the soldiers lined up on the bank of Qishui, looked at the tragic image in front of them, and nodded desperately.

Zhang Chengce was on the horse, also generally silent, he looked at the Qishui in front of him, it was very wide, although there was a severe drought, there was still a lot of water left, and the cold winter wind made his fiery red cloak flutter high.

With a sound of "choking langlang", Zhang Cheng drew out the imperial sword from his waist, all the generals around him looked at him.

Zhang Cheng flicked the sword with his fingers, and the sword made a dragon chant. He shouted loudly: "I, Zhang Cheng, swear to the sky today that I will bring the world back to peace and make this land of China a paradise. No matter who stands in my way step, I will remove him."

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

He yelled the word "kill" with the last breath, all the generals and soldiers also shouted in unison, the sound shook the sky.

"...Kill...Kill...Kill..."
