"Let him atone for his crimes!" Duan Yixu's eyes flashed a hint of calculation, as for whom to plot, I'm afraid only he himself knows.

Seeing that Luo Yiqing was puzzled, Duan Yixu said again: "General Luo, we know that Deng Changrui is the person behind the real collusion with Beihe, but empty words can't win people's trust. If Mei Xining is willing to testify against Deng Changrui, that's another matter." Forget about it."

"Marshal is more thoughtful!" Luo Yiqing finally had a smile on his face.

As long as Deng Changrui, a beast who ignored the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers, can be brought to justice, it will be worthwhile to spare Mei Xining, a scapegoat!

After conquering Yishan County, the army was stationed outside the city, waiting for further instructions from the imperial court. Beibei was worried about the two children and planned to return to Huaizhu City in two days.

At noon the day before Beibei left Huaizhu City, she and Duan Yixu were serving steamed buns from the kitchen with pickled vegetables, when Luo Yiqing rushed in with a solemn expression, as if his whole body was on fire.

"General Luo, who is this?" Duan Yixu raised his head and frowned at him.

Luo Yiqing is an old man in the army. He has been around Qiao Xiong for many years and has already practiced the ability to keep the mountain from falling in front of him without changing his face. Today he is so flustered and angry, Duan Yixu is sure that something big has happened.

"Marshal, our army's food and grass have been cut off!"

As soon as Luo Yiqing's angry voice fell, even Duan Yixu, who had always been calm in the world, suddenly stood up: "When did it happen?"

Beibei was dumbfounded, the rations of one hundred thousand soldiers were cut off?Does that man want to starve to death these hundred thousand soldiers?
"Marshal, when you were trapped in the miasma forest, we should have received this news three days ago, and it was obviously intercepted on purpose!" Luo Yiqing said furiously.

After a pause, Luo Yiqing seemed to have thought of something, and said bitterly: "They actually transported the harvested grain to the bottom of a mountain in Huaizhu City and burned it!"

If these people sold the grain or used it for other purposes, Luo Yiqing was not that angry, but these were the rations for their hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and those people were burned like this. skin!
Duan Yixu's face was also very ugly. After a moment of silence, he asked, "How long can our army last with the food and grass we have?"

"Start saving some food from now on, it can only last for a month at most!" Luo Yiqing gritted his teeth.

Even if the capital knows the news of the burning of the grain and grass, it will take several months to transport the grain and grass out now, and even if there are no accidents, the grain and grass will arrive in two months at the earliest. Now the food left in the camp would not last until that time, Luo Yiqing was anxious and angry!

Beibei frowned after hearing Luo Yiqing's words. If there were only one or two hundred people, the food in her space might be able to last a long time, but for a hundred thousand soldiers, the food she saved was not enough to fit between her teeth. , so she was powerless to help.

"Block the news first, and then figure out a solution for the rest." Duan Yixu ordered decisively.

"The news has been blocked, but paper can't contain fire, and the subordinates are worried that the army's morale will be in chaos!" Luo Yiqing said worriedly.

Once this news is leaked, it will definitely cause panic in the army. Even if Beihe doesn't send troops to fight back, they will be in a mess first.

"The only plan now is to take one step at a time!" Duan Yixu frowned.

You don't need to guess who did it. Duan Yixu immediately wrote this matter into the booklet and reported it to the imperial court, but the distant water cannot save the near fire. Duan Yixu knew that the immediate predicament could not be counted on the imperial court to help him solve it, he had to find another way way.

Thinking of this, Duan Yixu couldn't help looking at Beibei: "Beibei, do you know what kind of food can be harvested within a month and can fill your stomach at the same time?"

Duan Yixu can be said to know nothing about growing food, so he can only place his hope on Beibei.

"The climate is different in different places, so the things that can be planted are also different. You have to ask the local people to know." Beibei pondered, and she is not good at farming. The things planted in her space rely on Lingyan water And black soil can grow so well.

Suddenly, Beibei remembered something, his eyes lit up, and he asked, "General Luo, where is the burnt food now?"

"It's still at the foot of a mountain in Huaizhu City. I just sent someone to check it out."

"General Luo, you didn't ask someone to dispose of the burned food and grass?" Beibei asked by chance.

"If it burns, what needs to be dealt with?"

Luo Yiqing felt that Beibei's question was a bit inexplicable. His people were not in a hurry, all the food and grass were burned, and he didn't cultivate the land, so why should they collect it and use it as fertilizer?
"General Luo, please send someone to take care of the burnt food, don't let anyone touch it!" Beibei rushed out of the tent under Duan Yixu's and Luo Yiqing's astonished eyes after finishing speaking.

"Marshal, this..."

Luo Yiqing looked at Duan Yixu.

"Just do what Beibei said, maybe she will figure out a way." Duan Yixu smiled as if relieved from a heavy burden, he believed that Beibei must have a purpose for letting people guard the burned food.

Beibei asked Shen Wu, and learned that Lu Hui was helping in the wounded barracks and hurried to the wounded barracks.

"Uncle Hui, I have something to ask you!" Beibei said as soon as she rushed into the wounded barracks, looked at the wounded soldiers lying on the ground, and then whispered: "Let's go out and talk."

"Young Madam, what do you want me to ask?" Lu Hui asked after leaving the tent.

"Uncle Hui, do you remember that day before we left Huaizhu City, you said, 'It's going to rain, this is the first rain in Huaizhu City in spring'?" Beibei looked at the road with bright phoenix eyes. Hui.

Lu Hui thought for a while, nodded and said, "It seems that I said that."

At that time, he just said something casually, but he didn't expect the young husband to remember it.

"Uncle Hui, are you sure it really rained in Huaizhu City that day?" Beibei asked again.

Although he didn't understand why Beibei asked this question, Lu Hui replied honestly: "My master and I have lived in Huaizhu City for decades. There is always!"

"Uncle Hui, will you go back with me?" Beibei asked again.

"Now?"

Didn't you just come back in the next day?Lu Hui looked at Beibei suspiciously.

But then she thought that she might be thinking of a child, so she smiled and said, "Okay, let's go back now."

Beibei went back to the commander's tent and asked Duan Yixu to borrow General Lin and others who were still stationed in another place for a few days. Duan Yixu didn't ask much, and allocated Duan Yuan and a few guards around him to her, and personally Send her out of the barracks.

"Safety first, do you understand?" Duan Yixu raised his hand and touched her head, exhorting seriously.

"I know, you don't have to worry about me, I'll bring our son here in a few days!" Beibei winked at him and smiled.
