Wei and Jin Cooks

  Chapter 918 Charity

The housekeeper came to Liu Kun and said tactfully: "...the crops have failed this year, and our farm has exempted the tenants from rent according to your instructions. It's just that the food in the warehouse is only enough to last until winter." , Master, what shall we do after winter comes?"

   "How could it be? I remember that there are two grain depots at home..." Liu Kun said as he remembered that Zhao Hanzhang had just borrowed the grain.

  Liu Kun sighed and said: "Go and buy some more, buy more, the drought is severe, the farther it goes, the higher the price of grain."

  The housekeeper said: "Yes, the money..."

  The butler stretched out his hand to Liu Kun, seeing Liu Kun was stunned, he kindly reminded: "There is no cash in the account."

  Liu Kun: "...the money in the treasury?"

   "You have lent out everything that is on the account." So you have to have a small private treasury that is not on the account? Otherwise how dare you lend all your money?

  Liu Kun cares little about money and is generous, and the most careless thing is money. How can he save it in a small private treasury?

   So, he's out of money!

   It was Tuoba Yilu who first noticed the difference. He came for two days, and the treatment this time was much worse than before.

  At first, he thought it was Liu Kun who made him sworn a sworn relationship with Zhao Hanzhang, but recently he got closer to Zhao Hanzhang, and felt that he was too stingy and a little angry.

   As a result, after watching, watching, Tuoba Yilu realized something was wrong.

  Liu Kun has not had a banquet for two consecutive days.

   In the past, this must have happened when Jinyang was in a great crisis.

  He knows his sworn brother. When Liu Kun first came to Jinyang, the city of Jinyang was overgrown with weeds. There were only three or five people in the whole city, and everyone else who could escape fled;

So he worked hard, worked hard with the people, and brought Jinyang back to life in less than a year. Two years later, he lived a good life with wine in his right hand and chicken in his left hand. I like to form a band, and I live a very happy life.

   It was also because of seeing Liu Kun's wonderful life that Tuoba Yilu changed his mind, stayed in Daijun with a large army, and moved all his relatives and clans here.

  Oh, by the way, Daijun is very close to Jinyang, just to the north of Jinyang. It takes one and a half days to go on a fast horse, and three days to go back and forth, so Tuoba Yilu often comes to play with Liu Kun.

  Every time he comes, he will be warmly received.

   This time, there are no concerts, no good wine, and even fewer types of meat.

   Tuoba Yilu observed carefully, and found that Liu Kun's own concerts were gone, and the wine and meat were also greatly reduced.

this…

  Tuoba Yilu's mind quickly rolled through various thoughts, and when they finally converged on his face, there was only distress.

  He looked at Liu Kun distressedly, and said to him: "If my younger brother has any difficulties, just tell brother, if brother can help, he will definitely help."

  What difficulties can Liu Kun have?

  His eyes brightened slightly, and then he said sadly: "At this time, my brother only has one difficulty, and that is Wang Jun's disaster."

  He sighed: "The imperial court handed over Jizhou to me to govern, so Hanzhang ran around for me, but I still failed to keep Jizhou."

  Liu Kun wanted to ask Tuoba Yilu to send troops to help him recover the land of Jizhou occupied by Wang Jun.

Tuoba Yilu's eyes flashed, and he said to him: "Brother just fought with Wuhuan at the beginning of spring. Although he won a small victory, he also lost a lot. My wicked son is not inferior, so I separated him. Another group of people will go out, so we will not be able to gather enough troops at this time."

  He said: "I think the crisis in Jinyang has been lifted, and my younger sister is here again, why don't you take this opportunity to make some adjustments, and when my younger sister and I both reorganize the army, I will definitely help you then."

  Liu Kun: "Now that the Xiongnu are in seclusion and Wang Jun is being restrained, it is the best time to send troops to recover the lost land. If it is delayed, I am afraid that he will escape from the Huns, and it will be difficult for us to send troops again."

  Although Liu Kun is not good at fighting, it is a matter of tactics. In terms of strategy, he is still very smart. Every time he has the right cognition in the general direction, he just loses when he enters the battlefield.

  He feels that within ten years, there will be no chance as good as this one.

  Liu Kun felt that Zhao Hanzhang would definitely send troops, but most of her troops were held back by the Huns, so she could only lend him a limited amount. If Tuoba Yi Luken helped him, then the affairs of Jizhou would be secure.

  Tuoba Yilu only shirked, and said: "I have to ask my younger sister about this matter."

   But will he ask?

   Not only did he not ask, but he had to run away before Liu Kun asked, otherwise it would be difficult for Zhao Hanzhang to answer.

  So he left immediately, euphemistically saying: "Brother, go back and gather troops to see how many troops you can draw. Just wait for my good news."

  Liu Kun nodded in surprise.

As soon as Zhao Hanzhang heard that Tuoba Yilu was going to leave, and said that he would go back to recruit troops to help Liu Kun, he immediately sneered and said, "I'm afraid he won't come to the door again within a year after this trip, and a covenant that doesn't fall on paper is useless. "

She said to Fan Ying: "Go and tell Tuoba Yilu that I will keep him for two more days. After two days, I will have a batch of excellent weapons delivered. This time, I have no good gifts for sworn brothers. , this batch of weapons will be counted as a gift to the two elder brothers, and we will divide them up at that time."

  Ming Yu frowned slightly, then let go, and asked, "Does the envoy want Tuoba to fight Wang Jun with these weapons?"

  Zhao Hanzhang shook his head, "Wang Jun doesn't need him, I want him to fight the Huns."

She said: "Liu Cong has a deadly feud with me. He is narrow-minded and will not dare to surrender to me. The mourning soldiers are fierce in battle. In terms of the combat power of the cavalry battalion, our Zhao family army is still a little inferior. General Beigong needs people. As support, the Tuoba Department is a good choice."

  Ming Yu: "Then Wang Jun plans to hand over all the envoys to General Shi?"

"There is also Zu Ti," Zhao Hanzhang said: "Zhang Bin is very scheming, while Shi Le is fierce. The two monarchs and ministers complement each other, and Zu Ti has the ability of both. .”

  She said: "I have asked Mr. Ji to deploy in advance. Now Wang Jun must have a rebellious heart, and the gentry in Youzhou will not let him fool him."

  Ming Yu said: "Since your envoy values ​​Shi Le so much, you should give him both kindness and power. You have shown your might before, so now you should show kindness."

   "Although Tuoba is your brother-in-law, he is not yours after all. You are willing to give them good weapons. How can Shi Le be missing?"

  Zhao Hanzhang remembered his negligence, and quickly said: "Thanks to the reminder, sir, it almost caused a catastrophe."

  She turned her head and said to Zeng Yue, who was guarding at the side: "Ride your horse to meet Hu Zhi, and ask him to allocate half of the weapons in advance, and quietly send them to the camp to give to General Shi."

   Zeng Yue agreed to do it himself.

  Although the part south of Jinyang has been recovered, the rivers are wide, the mountains are high and the forests are dense, and there are still many bandits and hostile forces hiding in it, so every logistics transportation is very important.
