The blessing of the splendid farm family is married to the world

Chapter 235 Doomsday
The chaos in the south is not easy to calm down. In the past two months, Zong Che has been in charge of the front line An Xu, and he has only cleared out a few areas that can be seen.

Ordinary people are worthless in the south. No matter how many people go to a city under the responsibility of the ruler, they will be stopped under the city wall with disgust. An Xu then asked the soldiers to spread the news of the northern border.

Rao is thousands of miles away, as long as there are days when there is no hunger, some people will grit their teeth and leave their hometown.

The disaster victims they met when they went south, and those who had gone to the north to seek refuge before, were basically from the south bank of the Qingmo River, and the distance between the two sides was not too far.

After An Xu's propaganda, these people in the south began to flee to the north in large numbers.

Once a large-scale flight from famine is formed, the number of people is shocking.

An Xu had already expected this before making publicity. Before that, he ordered a small team to return to the north to deliver the letter.

There are military posts set up by Zongche on the "north-south border". The northern cities will not be hit by the swarms of disaster victims. She has to consider more about the absorbing power of the big cities in the north.

Asking the team to return to the north to deliver the letter was to ask An Chong to prepare enough sweet potatoes, while arranging the porridge, and at the same time preparing to arrange accommodation for the refugees and distribute sweet potato seeds.

The population distribution of Dazhou is presumably greater in the north than in the south, so the north is expected to quickly surpass the south.

In fact, these hungry victims are very easy to manage. As long as they can provide rice for one night, they can exchange for a dozen adult laborers who are in their prime.

Hungry people are scary, but they don't have the courage to grab food holders unless someone deliberately instigates them.

Moreover, this kind of hungry victims basically don't even have the strength to speak, and a normally full adult can kick over three or four with one kick.

Therefore, An Xu can take care of logistics for the frontline soldiers and arrange relief for the victims in the rear.

What Zong Che wanted to fight were scattered forces that were free from the common people. The reason why the imperial court sent him was because he didn't want the powerful Jiangnan King Annan who had been named before to completely control the south.

When the two of them handled the southern affairs fairly smoothly, King Annan handed over a booklet to the capital.

Impeach Zongche for massacring the people in the south of the Yangtze River, and then contradict himself by saying that Zongche's wife bought people's hearts among the victims, and encouraged the southern people to flow north, saying that this would lead to turmoil across the country.

When An Xu saw the news, he was so angry that he didn't know what to say.

Zong Che comforted her: Don't be angry, this is nothing, your husband and I have also found some allies in the court, and they will speak well for us.

An Xu didn't have much confidence in the old emperor, and when he was old and weak, he was more anxious to grab something in his hands. In his eyes, Zong Che was still a very obedient courtier.

An obedient courtier cannot allow any sign of rebellion.

What's more, there is Zongche's mother Liu in the capital.

An Xu was afraid that the old emperor would not go his way, and would do something with Zongche's mother.

Sure enough, half a month later, news came from the capital that the old emperor had granted Liu a marriage. He was an old prince in the clan who had lost his wife and never remarried.

Then Zong Che was transferred away from the south under the pretext of letting Zong Che go back to Beijing to marry his mother.

At this time, Zong Che and An Xu had only been in the south for a little over two months.

"Go back?" An Xu asked Zong Che.

Zong Che said with a smile: "Of course I have to go back, but I won't go back to the capital."

"Then about your mother's marriage to King Jin?"

"Don't worry, those of us staying in the capital should know what to do."

An Xu breathed a sigh of relief. The western sky was covered with beautiful red clouds, and the red sun was sinking. It can be seen that tomorrow will be a sunny day.

Da Zhou's fortune is probably coming to an end.

The Beiying army was ordered to prohibit it. On the second day after Zongche received the imperial edict from the capital, the whole army pulled out of the camp and left the Jiangnan where the green mountains and green waters were supposed to be.

After going up to the official road, people who had been waiting on the road for a long time, cattle, horses, mules and carts crowded together and stretched for a mile.

They were all people from nearby villages and towns who were paying attention to the military camp. Originally, they didn't have the courage to leave their hometown to go to other places. Now that the army is leaving, it's easier to follow them.

Thanks to what An Xuzi did when he came to the south, these people believed in this army.

However, An Xu still felt a little unbelievable.

Zong Che asked the scouts to ask the villagers why they came, and ordered the army not to chase them away, and then they drank their horses and headed back north again with the army.

In the crowd, a familiar face flashed by.

An Xu frowned.

After a day of marching, the magnificent sunset glow covered almost the entire sky in the evening, and the army stopped to rest on a meadow.

There was no water nearby. The scouts were exploring the way ahead. There was only a village on the left. There were not many families left in the village, and the wells were all dry.

I have no choice, I can only eat the water I brought with me today.

Because of the kind reminder from the scouts, there were a few more families in that village as tailgates.

All these things were reported by the soldiers.

An iron box of water was gurgling and burning in front of him, and the air was calm and not moving at all.

It was getting dark, but the glow in the sky above was so red that it seemed to have turned purple, making it even more magnificent and strange.

There is a sense of sight of natural disasters coming.

An Xu has an inexplicable feeling that this drought in the south will continue for a long time.

"Drink some water." Zong Che brought half a cup of water that was not so hot by blowing to An Xu's lips.

An Xu took it and drank it by himself. It was different from when they came. The lunch box they brought was gone, and only dry food was left. Therefore, An Xu and Zong Che also had to eat dry food and drink water along the way.

But at this time, being able to eat and drink water is a very happy day.

She drank half of it and handed the rest to Zong Che.

Zong Che rubbed the back of her head amusedly, "Drink more. We still have half a glass of water to spare."

An Xu smiled and said: "It's not saving, this is enough." Then he whispered: "There are so many people, it's not easy to go."

Zong Che fed her directly, "Then you can't be thirsty. If you want to go conveniently, tell your husband anytime, I'll accompany you."

An Xu: - - -
While talking, the little soldier who had just been sent to find someone came back.

"Ma'am, this subordinate has brought someone here."

An Xu looked up, the man was in front, holding a baby in his hands, and an honest-looking woman was behind.

"Fengnian," upon meeting her gaze, the man knelt down and said, "I've seen Miss, I've seen Uncle."

Unexpectedly, it was a good year.

Ever since Daoxiang left the northern border, and Chonger wrote to say that Fengnian offered to resign and return home, she almost forgot about the two brothers and sisters.

An Xu said, "Get up."

An Xu didn't want to ask since she didn't see Dao Xiang, after all, she doesn't like Dao Xiang now.

"Your hometown is Zhang County?" she asked.

They set off from the territory of Zhang County.

With the support of the woman, Feng Nian stood up with the child in his arms, and said, "My mother's natal family is in Zhang County. I thought I had settled there for nearly two years. Unexpectedly, these two years have been plagued by natural disasters. I saw Miss My aunt and uncle, knowing that you are leaving, I thought about going to the north with the army to seek a living, so I followed."
