Chapter 534: Where Did the Refugees Go?
Since meeting the refugees that day, Li Hanwen and his entourage have encountered more and more refugees along the way. net
Whenever they passed by, they would stand in fear and watch them pass by, begging and longing to watch cartloads of food pass by them.
On the sixth day, there were suddenly no victims on the road.
Looking at the deserted surroundings, Li Hanwen's expression gradually became solemn.
After walking like this for another three days, Li Hanwen stopped the team and ordered everyone to stop and rest.
I had been in a hurry for the past few days, but now I stopped to rest before noon, and both the soldiers and the accompanying officials were a little confused for a while.
When the team stopped, Master Qian found Li Hanwen and asked puzzledly, "Master Li, it's coming soon, why did you suddenly let you rest?" ”
General Rong pointed to the map and said, "There is a canyon ahead." ”
"Canyon?" Hearing this, Lord Qian didn't understand even more, "What does the canyon have to do with stopping and resting?" ”
Li Hanwen explained to Lord Qian, "There is no water source near the canyon, stop tonight to rest, and then rush tomorrow morning, and wait until evening, just enough to get to the next water source." ”
"What's more." Li Hanwen turned around and said loudly to the soldiers around him, "I have been in a hurry for the past few days, and everyone is tired. ”
"Thank you, Lord Lee."
I don't know which little soldier started the head, and the surrounding soldiers thanked Li Hanwen one after another, and the resentment of being tired of rushing for many days gradually dissipated.
When the soldiers were resting, General Rong walked to Li Hanwen's side, lowered his voice, and said, "Lord Li, are you afraid that there will be an ambush in the canyon?" ”
"Yes, in recent days, I haven't seen any refugees."
Hearing this, General Rong was stunned for a moment, "What do you mean?" ”
"Where did the refugees go?"
General Rong looked at Li Hanwen in surprise and said, "What do you mean...... Those refugees are hiding near the canyon, ready to grab food? ”
"It's possible."
"Impossible." General Rong said nonchalantly, "Master Li, you are too worried, those ordinary people don't dare." ”
Without waiting for Li Hanwen to speak, General Rong continued: "Besides, throughout the ages, how can anyone dare to rob the royal food, and your courage is too small." ”
Hearing this, a trace of surprise crossed Li Hanwen's heart, "In hundreds of years, no one has ever dared to rob the royal grain?" ”
"Naturally!" General Rong replied as a matter of course, "Who dares to rob the royal grain!" ”
Seeing that General Rong was so confident, Li Hanwen hesitated for a moment and said, "Maybe I'm too worried." ”
Looking at the map in her hand, Li Hanwen secretly said in her heart: After she goes back, she should find a history book of Tianyue Kingdom to take a look.
For hundreds of years, no people dared to rob the royal food, what kind of world is this?
In the last days, people don't have any bottom line for a bite of food.
Aren't these people hungry?
I remembered that a few days ago, the refugees I met on the road, they looked yellow and thin, and they were obviously very hungry, but after seeing their group, none of the refugees dared to come forward to ask for food.
What kind of point has the people's fear of the imperial court reached?
Gorge......
Will anyone be there to grab food?
Why are there so many refugees?
Where did all those refugees go?
