Chapter 1054: The News Returns
He waited for two days, but he didn't wait for the baggage team that came to transport the grain and grass. 、
Finally there were some suspicions.
So he sent people out of the city and ran in the direction of Zhongshan Kingdom.
I'm going to ask the Nanlou to see what is going on with this grain transport officer who escorts grain and grass.
It's been so long that even the first batch of grain and grass has not been transported.
However, the men sent out by Pandan soon returned.
"Huh? Why did you come back? Could it be that they transported grain and grass to this Lecheng County? ”
Looking at his guards, he soon returned.
Dumb was slightly puzzled and frowned.
The guard replied with a bitter face and an ugly expression.
"Back to the king, no...... It's not that the leader of the difficult building is back, but ...... Rather, we received people who fled back from Zhongshan Kingdom. ”
"Someone who escaped?"
As soon as he heard the guard's words, he realized that something was wrong.
"Well, it's hard...... The leader of Nanlou is afraid that he will not be able to come back, he was attacked by Liu Zheng's men and horses, and our grain and grass were burned by Liu Zheng's cavalry! ”
This guard already knew what had happened, although he didn't know the specific details, and he didn't know how much of their grain and grass had been burned by Liu Zheng's people.
But the leader of Nanlou has been killed, and there must not be much grain and grass left.
In this way, this matter is a big deal.
When he heard this, his face suddenly changed.
Immediately, he asked the guard in a hurried tone.
"What did you say!"
His face sank, and his expression immediately became very serious.
It seems that the next moment it will be angry and furious.
The guard knew Badun's temper and didn't dare to talk nonsense at this time.
I can only grit my teeth and answer the stumbling back.
"Big ...... My lord, this is news from outside the city, I ...... I don't know if this matter is true or not, so I'll continue to investigate it carefully! ”
The guards knew that this matter could not be concluded at this time, but most of the time it really happened, otherwise it would not have been possible for two days to pass, and they had not yet received the grain and grass transported from Zhongshan Country.
He kicked him up, and immediately drove the guard to inquire about the news.
At the same time, he sent someone to inform Yuan Xi.
After Yuan Xi learned the news, he also ran over from outside in a panic.
As soon as I came, I asked about grain and grass.
"Bang Dun! What do you say, our food and grass are gone? ”
Yuan Xi hurriedly ran in from outside the house, his tone a little anxious.
Tian Feng, who was following Yuan Xi, also frowned, and he didn't dare to breathe, and after walking into the house, he directly fell on Badun's body.
Would like to ask Badon for details on this matter.
The soldiers sent by Badon to deliver the message in the past just now did not say too much detail, but now they came to ask Badon just to learn some more detailed content from Badun's mouth.
He glanced at Yuan Xi and Tian Feng.
His face was bitter, revealing a not very good-looking look.
"I don't know exactly what happened, but not long ago, I received some subordinates who fled back from the direction of Zhongshan, and they are not many of them, and they are all under the command of the leader of the difficult building."
Bun Dun simply relayed the news from those soldiers to Yuan Xi and Tian Feng.
After listening to Badun's description, Yuan Xi and Tian Feng's faces changed greatly.
"This ...... That's bad! ”
Yuan Xi couldn't sit still.
Their subordinates were already short of food and grass, and the reason why they were able to hold out for so long was because they occupied Hejian County.
From the various counties in Hejian County, a batch of grain and grass was snatched, and it barely lasted for so long.
Originally, Yuan Xi was also counting on Bun Dun to snatch another batch of grain and grass from Zhongshan Country to alleviate the crisis.
When they cooperate with the Xianbei people and defeat Liu Zheng, the army can take advantage of the situation to go south and fight the entire Jizhou back, and then they will not be short of grain and grass.
But now, there is no food in Zhongshan Country.
Then let Yuan Xi compress their time for half a month all at once.
could have continued to confront Liu Zheng's men and horses here for half a month.
However, without the support of grain and grass, at most ten days, Yuan Xi must share the victory and defeat with Liu Zheng's men.
Otherwise, after ten days, they had no food and grass, and they didn't need Liu Zheng's men and horses to do it, and his men and horses would starve to death first.
Syllable.
Yuan Xi slapped the wooden table beside him.
Immediately furious.
Rushing at the end of the day is scolding.
"Rubbish! It's all rubbish! ”
"Badun, Lao Tzu sent you to Zhongshan to grab grain, you brought 30,000 people over, and you can't even look at a little food, what's the use of me raising you?"
At this time, Yuan Xi was obviously angry by this news.
Although a person like him can control his emotions, Yuan Xi is still young after all, not as sophisticated as his father Yuan Shao.
When encountering such an unexpected situation, it is inevitable that some people will still be swayed by emotions.
He was also in a hurry, but he was scolded by Yuan Xi angrily.
I was immediately unhappy.
"The surname Yuan, you still have the face to say this to me, if you hadn't sent someone to send me an order to return quickly, I would only be afraid to personally transport grain and grass here."
"Now, the grain has been sneak attacked, but you blame me, but Lao Tzu hasn't blamed you yet."
"Besides, when did we Karasuma people rely on you to raise them?"
Speaking of this, Yuan Xi has not given them food and grass for a long time, and the two sides have contradictions, not one heart.
If there is such a thing, if it weren't for Liu Zheng, the big enemy, I'm afraid that they would all make trouble because of such a trivial matter.
"Lao Tzu asked you to bring troops back to support, and that was because Liu Zheng's men and horses killed him, but you waste, such an important thing as food, don't you know how to send more people to protect it?"
Yuan Xi was not afraid of Dang Dun at all, and continued to count and fall on his toes.
Badun was also not afraid, and immediately drew his sword.
"What, now you're going to blame me?"
Seeing this, it's time for a fight.
Tian Feng on the side glanced at Bun Dun and Yuan Xi.
I couldn't help cursing in my heart.
The two wastes are not the masters of the matter, they were blind at the beginning, and they followed these two fools to deal with the court.
But now is not the time to blame them.
At this time, you must not fight in your own nest first.
"Okay, Childe, General Badun, now is not the time to discuss whose fault it is, let's still think about it, without those grains and grasses in Zhongshan Kingdom, how to support the grain and grass of the army next."
Tian Feng's words resolved the discussion between Badun and Yuan Xi.
The two of them had a step, so they each gave in a step, snorted coldly, and did not continue to argue.
