"I starved to death when I was ugly today, and I didn't get sick before," one of the middle-aged men said weakly.

"I starved to death an hour ago, and I wasn't sick before," said another middle-aged man, who was weak.

After the two finished speaking, they exchanged places, reloaded the corpses of the children on the ground into the sacks, and then led the sacks out of the depths of the alley tremblingly.

All this is very calm, but under the calm lies the nature of human nature!

Easy to eat!

Jinling City has been out of food for five days, during the five days, the hungry people are like locusts crossing the border, the grass and trees within a radius of 100 miles of Jinling are eaten cleanly, the outside of the city can be described as a barren, there is no trace of green, under the desperate hunger, it is really common to eat children, and even hungry and crazy people kill people to take meat, showing the ugly side of human nature.

Outside the west gate of Jinling City, the camp of the Qin army!

"Why can't there be food yet!"

"The porridge is getting thinner!"

"Don't complain, the porridge the general drinks is thinner than ours, like water!"

"Yes, all the generals above the commander of the army eat as well as us, we can have rice grains in our bowls, and it is completely saved for us by the generals, if this is all complained, it is really not a thing!"

"Let's hope the food arrives soon!"

"Bear with me, food is on the way!"

In the camp, countless Qin soldiers and comrades gathered together, each soldier had a bowl of gruel in his hand, and some soldiers drank their own share, and they stared at the bowl of their comrades with wide eyes, porridge This kind of thing is not a good thing, but in the eyes of these Qin army soldiers, this bowl of gruel is comparable to the delicacies of the mountains and seas!

After drinking the porridge in the bowl, many soldiers of the Qin army have to stick out their tongues to lick the bowl, which in normal times, they will definitely be laughed at, but in the case of the soldiers' rations, no one laughs at them at all, but they are very envious, at least they still have something to lick.

Handsome tent!

In the tent, the five generals Du Changjing, Zhao Hao, Ma Daring, Aluke Ge, and Luo Xing stood on both sides, while Bai Qi was in the handsome position, looking at the five generals under the handsome position with an expressionless face.

Whether it is Bai Qi or Du Changjing and others, their expressions are solemn and their faces are ugly.

"It can last a day, and after a day, hundreds of thousands of troops will have to go hungry!" Du Changjing said in a deep voice with a solemn expression.

"So far, there has been no news from the imperial court, nothing will happen, right?" Zhao Hao said with a worried look on his face.

"What can happen, it's not good, the grain team has already arrived at Yingkou!" Ma boldly spoke.

Zhao glanced at Ma Dada, and said quite speechlessly: "When is it, you still have to joke, it's not at all..."

"Brothers, here comes the grain!"

"Ahh

"It's finally here, my God, if you don't come again, I'm going to starve to death!"

"Brothers, we don't have to starve, the court's aid has arrived!"

Before Zhao finished speaking, there were bursts of cheers and screams outside the tent, and when Bai Qi and the others heard the movement outside the tent, they were suddenly shocked, looked at each other, and then ran out of the tent without saying a word!

When Bai Qi and the others ran out of the tent, they saw countless soldiers rushing towards Xiyingkou, no different from a hungry tiger pounced on food, seeing this scene, Bai Qi and others also hurriedly ran towards Xiyingkou, wanting to know whether the food had arrived.

After a short period of time, Bai Qi and Du Changjing came to Xiyingkou, at this time Xiyingkou was overcrowded, countless soldiers stood on both sides of Xiyingkou, looking ahead with extremely hot eyes, only to see that on the official road in front, there were a large number of people dressed in cloth pushing wheelbarrows full of grain.

The imperial court's aid has finally arrived!

Seeing the arrival of the imperial court's aid, the generals breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, and the big stone in their hearts also fell.

"Let the soldiers disperse and don't get in the way!" Bai Qi said in a cold voice with an expressionless face.

"Yes!" The five generals, Du Changjing, Ma Daring, Zhao Hao, Luo Xing, and Aluke Ge, raised their hands solemnly and responded.

"The whole army listened to the order, all returned to their respective camps, and waited for the next military order!"

"King Wu has an order, all go back!"

"Spread out! Disperse! ”

The generals quickly conveyed Bai Qi's order, and the soldiers gathered on both sides of the camp heard the order, and left one after another helplessly, which can be described as three steps and one turn, looking closely at the convoy on the official road in front of them, about half a pillar of incense time, the soldiers on both sides of the camp all dispersed, leaving only Bai Qi, Du Changjing, Ma Daring, Zhao Hao, Luo Xing, and Aluke Ge.

At the same time, the convoy that was originally on the official road also approached Yingkou, only a hundred steps away from Yingkou, and the convoy also stopped.

When the young man walked three steps before Bai Qi, he knelt down on one knee with a respectful expression and said: "Wailang, a member of the household department and the official of the grain this time, Xu Pin, meet King Wu, meet Shangyanghou, and meet the generals!" ”

"Get up!" Bai Qi raised his hand expressionlessly.

"King Xie Wu!" Xu Pin thanked him, and then slowly got up from the ground, and looked at Bai Qi cautiously with more curious eyes.

Is this the legendary white rise?

Bai Qi has a great reputation, he is the god of war in the hearts of countless people, and he is no exception in Xu Pin's heart, and now seeing this legendary god of war, to be honest, Xu Pin is very excited, but he hides it very well and does not reveal it.

"How much food did you bring?" To make a long story short, get straight to the point.

When the words fell, Du Changjing and other generals also looked at Xu Pin closely, as generals, they knew very well that the imperial court could not transport grain over at one time, it was all transported in batches, if a batch of grain was less than the army consumed, then the army would not be able to wait for the next batch, and they would still be hungry.

"If you return to King Wu, this time the imperial court will allocate a total of 1,000 stone and 10,000 stone grain, this is the first batch, each batch of 30,000 stone, and the interval between the arrival of each batch of grain will not exceed three days!" Xu Pin respectfully bent down and replied.

Hearing this, Du Changjing and other generals breathed a sigh of relief again, according to Xu Pin's words, tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, the second batch of grain will arrive, so that the army will no longer have to worry about the problem of food!

The food problem has finally been solved!

"That's a good job!" Du Changjing said with an appreciative look on his face, affirming Xu Pin's ability.

Affirmed by Du Changjing, Xu Pin breathed a sigh of relief as if he had received amnesty, this was his first time taking on a heavy responsibility, not to mention how nervous he was, you must know that if he didn't do a good job, not only would he lose hope in his career, but he would also lose his head if he didn't do well.
