The Old Summer Palace is indeed gone.

But Yang Feng got what he wanted.

The reason why he did this was certainly not pure generosity, it was a bait.

Just around Beijing around the carnival of the people to dismantle this glorious garden into a peacock, more and more rebels outside Beijing flocked to the capital, they came to make a fortune, although at this time the Old Summer Palace is nothing to start, but this Beijing is not only the Old Summer Palace There are good things, then all the mansions of the bannermen and nobles in the inner city of Beijing are full of jewels, not to mention just one and the Zhongtang Mansion, the wealth that has is no less than the Old Summer Palace, and the immortal Zun has already said that all the property of the banner people is rewarded to the righteous army, So whoever grabs this thing is counted, not to mention that even if you can't grab the gold, silver and jewelry, it is a lot of wealth to be able to catch a few flag people!

Immortal Venerable said a fifty run.

Of course, these people don't know that what Xianzun said is actually paper money, but it has always been equivalent to one or two silver, at this time, paper money around Nanjing is already the main circulating currency, that is, other holy religion-controlled areas have also begun to circulate, but this is not important, the important thing is that the inner city of Beijing is conservatively estimated to have three or four hundred thousand banner people, even if one-third of them are men under the age of fifty, that is equivalent to five or six million, not to mention that those women are also good things, and it is also very attractive to grab a grid and go home to wash your feet, It can be said that the entire inner city of Beijing is like a treasure trove, waiting for the rebels outside to do it.

Don't hurry up yet?

At this time, the work in the field is also busy, everyone squatting on the wall to bask in the sun is also sunning, and squatting outside Beijing is also sunning, and you can make a fortune here, so why not do it? Women in the counties near Beijing simply broke their hoes and shoved them into the men's hands......

Go, don't come back if you don't conquer the capital for Xianzun.

With the example of the Old Summer Palace, none of those rebels doubted Yang Feng's promise.

This is the horse bone effect.

Then a group of rebels in the most direct and effective gold, silver and jewelry attracted, like a flock of hungry wolves attracted by the flock of sheep have converged outside Beijing, initially around Beijing, the counties around Beijing, then Jizhou Zhuozhou, then Tianjin and Jidong, and even soon Baoding around the area appeared, even those bandits on the Taihang Mountain have descended the mountain, under the banner of the Holy Religion gathered around Beijing, in just one month the total number of rebels from all walks of life even exceeded 300,000, together with the people around the outer city and Beijing, Surrounded the inner city and more than 300,000 bannermen in the city, Yongying couldn't leave even if he wanted to.

These rebels did not attack the city.

Yang Feng also did not ask them to attack the city, during this time, every time the rebel army arrived, its leader would enter the palace to meet Xianzun, but Xianzun only encouraged them to give them official positions according to their situation, but never asked them to attack the inner city.

So of course, they are not in a hurry.

These people all bring their own grain and grass, they are all in various places to fight the local tyrants, and they all have more or less surplus grain in their hands, anyway, it is enough to support them for a few months.

But there aren't enough bannermen in the city!

There is not much surplus grain in the inner city at all, the food supply of the whole Beijing is dependent on the outside, and the city is also near the Dongzhimen warehouses, but because the autumn harvest has just ended, the vast majority of the grain from all over the country has not been delivered, most of these warehouses are empty, and some of the imperial city is stored, but it fell into the hands of Yang Feng, and the outside food supply is not to think about it, it is a dead end to go out to hunt, hundreds of thousands of people surround it, so the inner city of Beijing soon fell into a food crisis, Those hardcore crops with fine clothes and fine food have to taste the taste of not having enough to eat.

Then Yong Ying was dumbfounded.

He did have some brains, but he never had the concept of food shortage in his head.

Not only him, but also those princes and ministers under him, when have the bannermen tasted starvation in a hundred and fifty years? For one hundred and fifty years, they have been under the support of the Han people to stretch out their hands and eat to open their mouths, and if the food is not enough, they will starve to death in other places, and they must be fed first, hundreds of millions of people in the entire empire are serving them, and they want food and a canal to serve them, and one hundred and fifty years of worry-free food and clothing have already ignored the food problem in their brains, but now there is no supply for the entire empire, and there are no hundreds of millions of slaves to serve, and they suddenly find that they can't even eat.

'What a tragedy!'

Yang Feng sat on the wall of the imperial city, drinking tea while looking into the distance and said.

Ahead of him was a straight alley, and at the end of that alley was a large large building, and at this time countless bannermen, old, weak, women and children were queuing up in this alley, and from time to time there were returning people walking by with a small bag on their backs, and their bodies with little goods in their stomachs were swaying, and they even had to hold on to the wall to walk.

It is Fuxin, one of Beijing's main granaries.

Because of the lack of food, Yong Ying has to implement the rationing system among the banner people, and receive it every day according to the number of family members, it is obvious that they have almost reached the point of exhaustion, these days there are constantly slaves and maidservants of the banner people escaping, because the rebels control the walls of the imperial city, it is not difficult for them to escape, according to them At this time, even the soldiers of the Eight Banners can only eat two meals a day, and the quota for one meal is only six taels, and the other women and the old and weak are even less, they have no food to eat as slaves, You can only gnaw the bark and dig up the grass roots, and if you don't run, you should be eaten by the masters.

And I've heard that there is already such a thing.

Those hungry masters have even killed all the cats and dogs, and even started to dig out rats, of course they don't care about the minions.

Anyway, the minions are not as good as cats and dogs in their eyes!

But even if the mountains and rivers are exhausted, Yong Ying did not choose to break through, he knew that he had no way to break through, hundreds of thousands of rebels outside were waiting for them to go out, not to mention that most of them were old and weak, women and children, even if the army tossed and fought so far, they were all dead, and what was left was nothing more than waste, as long as these people went out of the city, they were basically hunted by the rebels outside, not to mention that Yang Feng could not let them go.

"Immortal Venerable, can't you summon a meteor and smash the warehouse for them?"

Shi Xianggu said.

After saying that, the goods were still lying on Yang Feng's lap, raising his head and looking at her with pure eyes.

"You're so naughty!"

Yang Feng nodded at her head and smiled.

After finishing speaking, Lord Xianzun's hand was raised and then made a downward stroke, a meteor in the sky suddenly fell, and then instantly fell on Fuxin Cang, and the next moment a terrifying flame exploded in this warehouse, and the flying fire rain was like a bright firework, where the fire rain fell, the raging flames rose into the air.

At the same time, Shi Xianggu let out an excited scream very cooperatively.

Immediately after that, the mournful screams of the flagmen came.

"Immortal Venerable, put another one!"

Shi Xianggu clapped her hands and said happily.

"Put another one? Then put another one! ”

Yang Feng said.

Then he did the same thing he had just done.

The next moment, another meteor fell, and then Beixincang in the north was also hit by a burning gasoline barrel, and quickly rose into the sky, and those flag men in the streets and alleys screamed like crazy, desperately rushing to the two fires, trying to extinguish this evil flame, behind them, Yang Feng and Shi Xianggu, the two unscrupulous guys, immediately gloated and laughed.

"Immortal Venerable, there is a saying that your old man asked to see you."

Wang Tai leaned over to Yang Feng with a smile and said.

"The deceased?"

Yang Feng was stunned for a moment.

"Then bring it!"

He went on to say.

Soon Wang Tai brought a middle-aged man over.

"This is really an old man!"

Yang Feng said with a smile.

"Disciple knocks on Immortal Venerable!"

When he left Beijing, the owner of the boat he was on said excitedly in front of him.

"Get up, I didn't bother you last time, did I?"

Yang Feng said.

He said that he made a big fuss in Tianjin last time, and afterwards he patted the pi shares and left, and forgot to care about the shipowner, and this guy carried him all the way out of Zhangjiawan, and Qianlong is afraid that there will be trouble if he wants to track him down.

"Back to Xianzun, it is the blessing of the villain to be able to serve Xianzun, some small troubles are not enough to worry about, since Tianjin has been farewell, the villain has taken his family to hide in Beitang and mixed among the fishermen, and he has been safe and sound in recent years, the villain came here to meet Xianzun, and secondly, there is an important military report."

The owner of the ship said.

"What military intelligence?"

Yang Feng said.

"Hui Xianzun, five days ago, when the villain was selling fish at Shanhaiguan, he happened to meet the Qing Demon Brigade entering the city, all of them were the Eight Banners outside the Guan, and a large part of them were Saurons, the total number of which was probably not less than 20,000, and there was also a part of the Horqin cavalry, the strength of the troops was almost 5,000, these Qing Demons were all cavalry, and there were about 5,000 Eight Banners in the Shanhaiguan area that had also been assembled in the Guancheng, and the villain guessed that they came south to Beijing."

The owner of the ship said.

"I said why didn't Yongying run, it turned out that he was waiting for reinforcements!"

Yang Feng said with a smile.

Obviously, this is Yongzhen's last hope, he can piece together 20,000 cavalry, basically the young and middle-aged people of the Eight Banners and the Sauron Department outside the Guanwai will all be free, this is a good thing, Yongzheng can be regarded as a great favor for him, as long as this Qing army is annihilated, basically the northeast will be at his fingertips.

"Five days ago, if you leave on the same day, it should be time to go to Jizhou, go, let the airship get ready!"

Then he said to Wang Tai.

"As for you......"

Yang Feng stood up, then looked at the owner of the ship and said, "Follow me in the future, go to Xu De to get an errand first, you, give him a reward of two thousand taels of silver!" ”

After he finished talking to Shi Xianggu, he then went straight to Dong'an Gate along the city wall, and got off the city wall at Dong'an Gate and entered the Donghua Gate into the palace to the square in front of the Taihe Palace.
