Early on the next morning, Liu Fu brought more than a hundred helpers to the courtyard of the Du Mansion. Du Guangkun felt distressed and saddened as he watched the poor people's eyes shining with their hard-earned savings.
The grain that came down was loaded into the cart one by one. Yesterday, he went to the Zhou army camp and found Chu Feihu, the general of Weizhou. When Chu Feihu knew that he was here to donate grain, he immediately pulled him
He thanked Du Guangkun with his hands. At the same time, he gave Du Guangkun a promise: "Even if Weizhou is really captured by the Han army, as long as there is still a Zhou army soldier alive, he will protect the safety of the Du family. Of course, with Du Guangkun,
With the five thousand stones of food and fodder given by the great good man, the Han army will never even be able to attack Weizhou City."
Of course, Du Guangkun would not be so stupid as to give away all the six thousand dan of food and leave 1,000 dan, enough to feed the dozens of people in his family for several years.
Chu Feihu originally wanted to send troops to Du Mansion to collect food, but Du Guangkun insisted on delivering the food to the Zhou army camp by beating gongs and drums. Chu Feihu thought about it and did not insist, because he understood that Du Guangkun was doing this
Why? Du Guangkun is a businessman, and he is also an out-and-out profiteer. The fact that he can voluntarily donate five thousand shi of food is considered a rare thing when the sun rises from the west. How can he give up this opportunity to gain a reputation for himself?
?Du Guangkun is not worried about the Han army knowing about this, because he has staked his fortune and life on the Zhou army. Even if he is not public, if the Han army breaks the city, will they not be able to find out that he donated food to the Zhou army?
Chu Feihu didn't refuse for this reason. When Du Guangkun asked for a name, he gave it to Du Guangkun! Now that the Zhou army camp is short of food, such a rich man took the initiative to donate food. This is an example. Du Guangkun knocked
The other big households have the nerve to pretend to turn a blind eye when they deliver grain with the beating of gongs and drums? Chu Feihu has already thought about it. Once the day comes when food and grass are in short supply, he will not hesitate to order and send troops to rob all the wealthy households in the city. Since
If there is a chance to avoid something like this that he least wants to do, why not do it?
As long as the wealthy households in the city followed Du Guangkun's example in donating grain, perhaps the food collected would be enough for an army of 20,000 to hold on until His Highness the King of Zhou returns.
Du Guangkun really spent money. He hired six to seven hundred people to work, collected all the carts in the city, and formed a mighty team of hundreds of carts. Of course, one hundred carts
The carts couldn't haul all five thousand shi of grain at once. Today, even if those carts made two trips back and forth, they couldn't finish it. That's a full 5,000 shi of grain, nearly 600,000 kilograms!
Judging from the current market price of grain, Du Guangkun is bleeding a lot.
He is a person who started his business by selling private salt. He is far more ruthless than ordinary businessmen. He is decisive and ruthless, and he will not look back easily when he has found the right direction. Since he plans to donate these five thousand stones of grain, since he will risk his own life and the whole family,
The lives of dozens of people are betting on Zhou Jun, so do it thoroughly!
Hundreds of large carts were moving forward in the direction of the Zhou army's camp like a long winding dragon. On the street, more and more people were watching, and eventually they were all standing on both sides of the street in darkness.
Just like two towering dams on the edge of the river. The people watching were pointing and talking, while praising the Du family's wealth. In this world, those who have soldiers can dominate one side and be respected by others. Hands
If there is food in it... it will attract people to scold you.
Si Quan'er and others were mixed in with the labor of the helpers. Although she was a woman, she had put on simple makeup and blended in with a group of dirty people. If you didn't stare carefully, it would be difficult to spot her.
.All the secret spies of the Third Office of the Supervisory Yuan in Weizhou, except for Si Chang who is in charge of the reception in the camp, seven of them are here.
It is undeniable that Si Quan'er felt a little nervous. No one can truly take life and death lightly. Even those great figures who have left their names in history, who can know the true feelings in their hearts before they die?
For example, Wen Tianxiang, whose majesty lasted forever, died with great enthusiasm. Even though he had no fear in his heart, did he not have any regrets? For example, the clever and intelligent Gan Luo died tragically. In his heart, even though he had no regrets, didn't he have any regrets?
Nostalgic?
People like Si Quan'er are not big shots. What they do will not even leave a word in the history books. In the long history, no one will remember their existence. They are like the most inconspicuous little ones.
The waves, drifting with the current, shine with their own brilliance in the sun. They are ordinary, and they are also great. People who sacrifice for their ideals are always so worthy of respect.
People with ideals do not only exist after the Manchu and Qing dynasties.
Liu Ling was the person who gave people like Si Quan'er their ideal.
The motorcade was moving very slowly. Du Guangkun, clad in red and colorful, rode on a tall horse and walked at the front of the team, as high-spirited as a groom. He never regretted any decision he made, which was the most important part of his character.
What is commendable. At the beginning, he was able to poison the big brother who led him to sell illegal salt with a glass of poisonous wine, and he was also able to risk his life and fortune for the future of the whole family. As for the result, he firmly believed in his
His luck will not run out so quickly. It seems that since his debut, his luck has been good.
In fact, he has an armed force of his own outside the city. Although the number is small, only more than 200 people, they are all brave guys. Selling private salt has been a serious crime in all dynasties. Without courage and strength,
People who are not ruthless enough to kill people cannot do this business. However, this armed force is not even an egg in front of the powerful Han army. Moreover, Du Guangkun can also guess that in the Han army's siege
In the past, those guys who only recognized money but not people might have gone away long ago.
If you can't count on others, you can only count on yourself!
Destiny is like a woman's obscene clothing. If you tear it off, you will get the warm fragrance of nephrite.
In fact, there is no need for Chu Feihu to stand at the gate to greet wealthy gentry like Du Guangkun in person. He is the commander of 20,000 Weizhou soldiers, and he has a position even under the King of Zhou. Moreover, this position is not very special.
Chu Feihu looked down upon profit-seeking businessmen like Du Guangkun. But today was different. Chu Feihu had to wait in person at the gate of the camp. Du Guangkun wanted to build momentum, and he also wanted to build momentum.
When the grain truck arrived at the gate of the camp, according to the rules, the helpers were not allowed to enter the important area of the camp. But because of Liu Fu's words, Du Guangkun shamelessly made this request: "General, let my people go in to unload the truck. They want to
Go in and take a look at what's going on in the camp. They're a bunch of bumpkins and they don't have much knowledge. Of course, if it's inconvenient for the general, don't bother with those rough guys."
The spies from the Third Division of the Overwatch Council were fortunate that the most difficult level was passed just like that. Chu Feihu was in a good mood, which was a bit too good. He didn't think that a hundred farmers would be that big.
They were just a group of guys who had never seen the world. So he generously agreed to Du Guangkun's request. For safety reasons, he still sent 500 soldiers to supervise the farmers unloading the trucks.
In the heavily guarded camp, these 100 unarmed people couldn't even make a small splash.
No one noticed that when passing through the C-shaped camp, the helpers unloading the trucks were a few fewer people. This was because the 500 soldiers who were watching them unload the trucks were all waiting in the baggage camp, and the person who restrained these helpers happened to be Liu
blessing.
Si Quan'er and the others got into a marked empty tent, where there were several sets of Zhou army uniforms prepared by Si Chang. When they were changing clothes in the tent, Si Quan'er happened to see them.
Intentionally or unintentionally, her eyes glanced at her bulging breasts. Although she was separated by single clothes, she still couldn't hide her shyness. Everyone smiled, and the tension in their hearts eased a little.
After they changed their clothes, they walked out of the tent naturally, took their weapons, and hid the fire seals in their clothes, and followed the sacrificial minister to the heavy supply camp. As a result, the soldiers of the Zhou army who were watching the helpers unloading the trucks became
Five hundred and seven people. This is undoubtedly a very bold move, and they are simply risking their lives in an almost joking way. They just blatantly mingled among the soldiers, holding weapons, standing upright, staring eagerly.
Waiting for the laborers to unload the truck.
This bold action plan violated people's conventional thinking. The five hundred soldiers were basically paying attention to the carts of food. Those timid and insignificant laborers had no idea how many more people were at the end of the team.
Personally. Can this be considered a blatant action? How much courage does it take?
There is no doubt that none of them lack courage. Eight people who are already prepared to die, what else do they have to fear?
They did not act rashly, but waited.
Finally, an hour later, the first batch of one hundred carts of grain was unloaded. Under the almost glaring gaze of the Zhou army, the laborers got on the carts and walked toward the camp gate, pointing as they walked.
Pointing. Liu Fu did not dare or could not look for his companions. He just clenched his fists tightly and silently blessed them in his heart, hoping that everyone would be alive to meet again.
Liu Fu was the only one who had a chance to survive. The task given to him by Si Quan'er was to report the whole story of the operation when His Highness the King of Han and the commander entered the city. Liu Fu did not refuse, he would not
He was greedy for life and afraid of death. He just knew that with his status, he could not break away from the team and sneak into the camp.
After the laborers left, the Zhou soldiers who were responsible for monitoring them began to disperse, looking for a place to rest, waiting for the next batch of food to arrive. Taking advantage of this rare chaos, Si Quan'er and the others found an opportunity to get into the forage.
Hidden in the pile. They still have to wait, because now is not the best time.
The supervisory guard in the darkness always shines brightly in the darkness.
Moreover, the flames soaring into the sky at night were the signal to report the news of victory to the Han army outside the city! (To be continued)
