Zhao Kuo signed an alliance to leave Li Si, Zhao Guo after the baptism of war more cherished the hard-won happiness in front of him, through the summer, looking at a piece of gold, everyone's eyes showed joy, Zhao Guo finally got through the difficulties, laughter between the fields, Handan City granaries are piled up, in comparison, Qi is much more pitiful, suffered from drought and then insect plague, all vegetation was almost eaten by insects, looking at the fields only left bare hard poles, the people of Qi want to cry without tears.

Qi Xiangguofu, Qian Feng carefully inspected the harvest in various places, compared with last year, it was fifty percent less, and the tax was even more difficult, without the tax, the officials could not distribute it, and even everyone in the palace was hungry.

There was a person standing respectfully below, and Qian Feng slapped the table, "All officials stop issuing money." ”

The man said: "Lord Xiangguo, this will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among officials everywhere. ”

Qian Feng snorted coldly, "If you can't even fill your stomach as an official, you're just a stupid official, what's the use!" Immediately issue an order, no matter what method is used, this year's tax revenue will not be less. ”

Qian Feng's face was gloomy, the man looked helpless, Qi State was not short of food, he fought with Zhao State that day, and returned defeated, most of the food with the army was robbed by Zhao State, coupled with the disaster, it is almost difficult for the people to maintain the grain until next year's harvest, how can they hand over the grain, and it will inevitably cause civil unrest if it continues.

When the order was issued, the officials of the states and counties of the Qi State moved one after another, and the soldiers of the Qi State rushed into the village with spears in their hands like tigers and wolves, kicked the door open hard, and ignored the angry eyes, "Hand over the grain." ”

"Please, leave us a way to live."

"If you want to live, think for yourself, and if you can't die."

With a kick, a soldier searched out the grain from the cellar below the house, two large bags, the figure collapsed to the ground, almost all the food, and now it was snatched away, how could the family live.

A dilapidated courtyard, one person pointed with his hand, "Old thing, hurry up and hand it over." ”

The old man squatted on the ground and shook his head repeatedly, "The young and strong people in the family have all died, and there is only one old and one young left. ”

"Nope!" The soldier looked around, his house was surrounded by walls, there was really nothing to take, his eyes fell on the old man, "Take it away, gather food to replace people." ”

The soldier stepped forward quickly, the old man saw that he was going to catch his grandson, his son was gone, the grandson was the last hope, and he struggled to resist, how to be a strong soldier opponent, the child was caught, and he was scared, and the people in the village walked out one after another, the woman had tears on her face, and the man clenched his fists, this group of hungry wolves was far more hateful than the bandits, and there was no way to leave people alive.

The soldier took the child's arm and walked out, and the old man grabbed one of the thighs, "Please, it's good." ”

"If you want people, bring food."

"Yes, yes!" Running back quickly, removing the mess of firewood and grass, and taking out half a bag of grain from underneath, the tax was also based on the number of people in the family and the number of fields, and the man glanced at it, "How good is this." After speaking, he twisted the child's face hard, "Good, go back and be filial to grandpa." ”

The soldiers left, the village fell into complete silence, and the soldiers almost ran out of food, even if they secretly hid something that was not enough for the family to eat.

"Let's talk about it."

When the fire was lit, the men and women of the village gathered together, and from time to time some people wept secretly, and the children's eyes widened, not knowing what was happening, and why the people who broke into the village during the day took the food they had worked so hard to save.

What happens without food! The world of children simply cannot imagine such a cruel truth.

One person sighed and said: "If you really can't dig some wild vegetables, come back, survive this year, and next year there will be no disaster, and life will be better." ”

"It's easy to say, a few villages before and after, in a few days, don't say it's a wild vegetable, I'm afraid you won't even be able to dig up the roots."

One nodded, "That's what I said, all the old and the young have to eat." ”

"If you can't do it, you can beg, and you can't starve to death here."

"Where can we go?"

"Linzi, there is the royal city, I heard that the dignitaries and nobles can feed many people with the rest of their food."

"I'm not going, I'm going to live here for the rest of my life, and I'm not going anywhere."

There were differences of opinion, and finally it was decided that one person would take a wave of people to Handan to find a way out, leaving a few people to take care of the old and weak in the village.

In Linzi City, Qian Feng snorted coldly, "If you don't come a little ruthlessly, it will definitely not work, the order is issued, and the taxes paid in various places have been handed over." The scroll was thrown aside and his eyes were closed, footsteps sounded, Qian Feng's eyes opened, and a person flashed in quickly.

"What's going on in Handan?"

This person is the spy sent by Qian Feng to Handan City, he is a shrewd person, and the person is humane: "My lord, Zhao Guo has a bumper harvest, and traders from all over the country are flocking here. ”

"Great harvest! I don't want to even help Zhao Kuo with God. Qian Feng's face was ruthless, not only because Zhao Kuo killed Wei Mu that day, but also because Tian Dan deeply stabbed Qian Feng's heart, and the attack on Maiqiu failed, and Qi Guo's voice of denouncing Qian Feng was endless, most of which had Tian Dan's factors, but fortunately, it was suppressed in time.

Qian Feng thought for a while, "Immediately send a caravan, if Zhao Guo sells grain and buys it in large quantities and transports it back to Linzi."

"Yes!"

The caravan set off in less than two days, but when he saw that the hungry people on the road were flocking to Linzi, he couldn't help but shake his head again and again, so that a Qi country would look like this.

The streets of Linzi are full of begging people, especially wineries or places where the rich gather, and one person walks out surrounded by people, and the people come forward one after another, their hands are covered with mud, and their hands are stretched out and their eyes are full of pleading.

"Get out of here, don't get your uncle's clothes dirty."

"Get out of here, get out of here." Behind him, the evil slaves took action one after another, and everyone had to disperse, and this situation was staged again and again, and hunger made people forget all their dignity.

Qian Feng got the news, the guards opened the way in front, holding a sharp sword, the victims did not dare to step forward, Qian Feng saw in his eyes, a good Linzi City was almost occupied by the ragged victims, once this situation reached the ears of the king, he would inevitably ask himself, especially those who wanted to overthrow themselves and replace them, and made up their minds to order someone to call the captain of Linzi City.

"Immediately expel all the victims in Linzi City, and no one is allowed to enter."

The man's expression changed, "My lord, the victims can only starve to death." ”

Qian Feng's eyes revealed murderous intent, "With so many victims, once it causes a riot, it will be you who will die at that time." ”

Qian Feng held great power, the commander of Qi had no choice but to do so, gathered soldiers, and advanced along the street with spears in hand, the victims were unknown, and they finally arrived in Linzi after starvation, which was indeed much better than other towns, at least there was a place to shelter from the rain, and from time to time to get some leftovers to satisfy hunger.

"All up, all up."

The spear went down, the victims did not know why, so they had to stand up, like cattle were being driven, the victims in front of them did not know why, lying there and unwilling to get up, the march became extremely slow, the soldiers were divided left and right, and when they came to the front, they took two feet on their bodies, "Get up, and then pretend to be dead and send you directly to the king of Hades." ”

There were bursts of shouting, accompanied by bursts of cursing, three streets, three teams of men and horses slowly poured towards the city gate, and the soldiers at the city gate were lined up on both sides, which inevitably caused a change in the livelihood of the disaster, and specially mobilized a large group of people and horses to come.

Approaching the city gate, one person shouted, "This is to drive us out of Linzi." ”

"The conscience has let the dog eat, and it is not enough to give any leftovers."

"If you can't go out, you won't be able to come back if you go out, and everyone will starve to death."

The people turned around one after another, and the soldiers took up their positions with spears, but there were no other instructions to drive them away, and the victims rushed back, and some people tried to get out from below, but the road was completely blocked by the soldiers with spears, and they had to give up after several consecutive attempts.

The fear of hunger, everyone used their best strength, some were in pain, some cursed, some tried to kick with their feet, "All the victims leave Linzi City, if they dare to enter again, there will be no mercy!" ”

An almost cold voice sounded, Qian Feng led his men to the front, and the dispute at the city gate could be seen clearly, and the darkness was overwhelming, and there were no less than thousands of victims.

"If you go out, you will die, if we don't leave, why should we be driven away."

"That's it."

The sword light rose, Qian Feng's figure jumped, and one piece stabbed into the leader's throat, blood gushed out instantly, and the corpse fell to the ground.

"Murderous demons."
