Chapter 1256
(Mop in Chinese) Brother Rui was lucky, he happened to find a hut abandoned by a hunter the night before it snowed. After waking up from the cold in the middle of the night, I quickly lit a fire, and when I ran out of firewood, I took the broken table and chairs in the house and burned them. Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll freeze to death.
After dawn, my stomach growled. Touching his stomach that was about to be flattened by hunger, Brother Rui got up helplessly.
As soon as he walked out the door, the surrounding cold air penetrated directly into his bones, causing Brother Rui to shiver several times, forcing him to retreat into the room.
Nestled by the fire to warm up, Brother Rui said to himself with a bitter face: "Why is it snowing?" Because there is a precedent of Zaozao being a live target in the grassland, Yunqing and Yuxi didn't give specific advice. Brother Rui built a set of armor, but directly gave him a soft armor. And this soft armor is just a protective uniform, it doesn't keep warm!
From morning to noon, Brother Rui finally couldn't stand it anymore and went out to find something to eat. Deep in the jungle, eat a lot, it depends on your ability.
Brother Rui had injured his left hand before, but it was a minor injury. He carried an elixir to stop the bleeding and heal the injury with him. After bandaging it, he will be fine. In the past few days, he has been relying on hunting wild animals to satisfy his hunger. But in such a cold day, the animals are all huddled in their nests, how can they come out.
After wandering around for a long time, Brother Rui didn't even see a chicken feather. It was so cold that I couldn't stand it, so I had to pick some wild vegetables and go back.
The fire in the thatched shed had been extinguished long ago, but luckily there were still sparks. After lighting up the fire, Brother Rui went out to collect firewood again. When he came back from collecting firewood, he found that there was an extra person in the thatched shed.
Hearing footsteps, the man turned his head reflexively.
Seeing this person's face, Brother Rui took two steps back in fright. There is no way, this person's face is covered with scars, it is not an exaggeration to say that his face is beyond recognition, it looks particularly terrifying. That is to say, Brother Rui is very courageous, and if he were to be replaced by an ordinary person, he would be frightened and faint.
The man was also very surprised to see Brother Rui, and asked a question. It's a pity that he spoke in dialect, and Brother Rui didn't understand.
Brother Rui asked in Mandarin: "Who are you?" In order to escape the pursuit of the Yan army, he went deep into the jungle. When I felt that it was dangerous, I wanted to go out, but I got lost. No matter how I walked, I couldn't get out, so I just went around in the mountains. If this person is familiar with the terrain, he can go out.
The ugly man couldn't understand Brother Rui's words either, but he pointed to something beside the fire.
Brother Rui looked at the two dead pheasants and hares, and immediately understood: "Are you a hunter?" It is impossible for ordinary people except professional hunters to be able to hunt wild animals in this snowy day.
Seeing that the ugly man couldn't understand, Brother Rui made a gesture of drawing a bow. How can a hunter know how to draw a bow!
The ugly man nodded, and then pointed at Brother Rui.
Brother Rui thought for a while, and said in Changzhou dialect: "I'm from Changzhou, I'm lost, and I don't know how to get out."
The ugly man still couldn't understand, with a dazed look on his face.
At this time, Brother Rui's stomach growled. Seeing the ugly man looking at him, Brother Rui touched his suffocated stomach and said embarrassedly: "I haven't eaten for two days."
The ugly man walked over, picked up the bloody hare and threw it to Brother Rui. The meaning is obvious, this hare is for Brother Rui.
It must be a bad time to go out to look for food in such a cold weather, but the ugly man did not hesitate to share a hare for himself. Brother Rui knew that although this ugly man looked scary, he had a kind heart. Make up your mind and let the ugly take him out. It's just that the language barrier has become an obstacle.
The snow stopped for a day, and then it started to rain again. The rain was not heavy, but it made people shiver with cold. In Shengjing City, thousands of people died because of the snow.
Under normal circumstances, the government must provide disaster relief. However, there is not enough food and cold-proof supplies for the army, so how can they be allocated to the common people.
The Minister of the Household Department talked for a long time, but Yan Wushuang didn't respond. Sighing, the Minister of the Household Department said: "Your Majesty, this snow will freeze all the crops to death." The grain harvest will definitely be wiped out.
Yan Wushuang didn't want to hear any more,
He waved his hand and said, "You can handle these things." As soon as the weather gets warmer, the Ming army will attack the city. Now that even Shengjing can't be kept, how can I have the energy to manage the people starving to death and food harvests.
Now that we've talked about this, the Minister of the Household Department will stop talking. It is useless to say.
After Ah Chi waited for the Minister of the Household Department to go out, he said: "Father, before the Ming army comes in, we will have to mess up ourselves."
"If you want money but no money, what can you do if you want food but no food?" He has been letting Ah Chi take Ah Bao and Yuchen away for the past few days, but the three of them are unwilling to live or die. Said that if you want to go together, if you want to stay together.
A Chi looked at Yan Wushuang, hesitated for a long time and still didn't speak.
"Just say what you have to say!" The general looked hesitant to speak, and he felt tired just looking at it.
Ah Chi mustered up his courage and said, "Father, as long as they let us leave the Central Plains, we will give them Liaodong. Father, I believe they will agree." He is not afraid of death, but he hopes that the family can live well. live.
Yan Wushuang smiled and said: "Even if I agree, it's for the sake of showing the world. Afterwards, she still won't let me go." Han Yuxi's temperament of baring his teeth, how could he really let him go! If he surrendered, he would become a fish on the chopping board and be slaughtered by Han Yuxi.
Is it the land of the king in the whole world, and the land of the land is the king's minister. If Han Yuxi really wanted the lives of their family, he would definitely be unable to escape by staying in the Central Plains. Ah Chi understands this truth.
A Chi said: "Father, then we will go overseas." In this way, even if Han Yuxi wanted to revenge them afterwards, he would not be able to stretch his hand so far. Their family can live happily and peacefully.
Yan Wushuang glanced at A Chi and said, "It's useless. Once they know where we are, they won't let us go overseas even if we go overseas."
A Chi said: "Father, the left and the right are just dead. If you don't surrender now, the whole family will die." Even if Han Yuxi wants to kill their family in the future, it will be at least a few years later. And as long as you are alive, there is always a way.
After staying in Tongcheng for so many years, Ah Chi deeply understood a truth. Living is not easy, but as long as there is life, there is hope. When you die, it's all over, and there's nothing left.
Yan Wushuang shook his head: "People of the Yan family would rather die than surrender."
Hearing this, Ah Chi lowered his head.
That night, Yun Qing was very surprised to hear that Han Jianming had come. Seeing someone, Yun Qing asked: "Brother, why are you here? Are you here for Brother Rui?"
Han Jianming nodded and said, "The Empress was very anxious when she found out that the Second Prince had been arrested."
Qi Hao hurriedly asked: "Uncle, does mother have any good ideas?" It has been more than ten days, and I don't know how much Ah Rui has suffered under Yan Wushou.
"The queen's intention is to recruit Yan Wushuang again. In this way, not only can the war be avoided, but also the safety of the second prince can be guaranteed." It can be said that this is a way to kill two birds with one stone.
Yun Qing's face was sullen.
When Han Jianming saw this, he knew that Yunqing was not very happy: "Your Majesty, there are still 100,000 soldiers in Shengjing City. Tongcheng also has 200,000 soldiers and horses. Even if we take Shengjing, Yan Wushuang will be defeated." You can also retreat to Xincheng and continue to fight with us. At that time, they will occupy favorable terrain, and we will have to pay a huge price if we want to win Liaodong."
"The arrow is on the string, so we have to fire it." The army was approaching the city, even if Yan Wushuang said to surrender, he would not be willing to surrender, let alone recruiting to surrender.
Han Jianming has followed Yunqing and Yuxi for more than 20 years, and he knows their temperament very well. Therefore, he also knows how to persuade Yunqing: "Your Majesty, this snowfall is bound to wipe out the crops in the fields. The people in Liaodong will definitely have no food for the winter this year."
After a pause, Han Jianming looked at Yun Qing and said, "Your Majesty, if we don't fight the Yan army, we can use this money to provide disaster relief." Not fighting can not only reduce casualties, but also save countless people. But if there is a war, even if Liaodong is defeated, disaster relief will be difficult. After all, the imperial court also said that it was stretched.
Seeing that Yunqing was loosening up, Qihao hurriedly added fire: "Father, I think what uncle said is very reasonable. What is the reason we fight? It is to let the people of the world live and work in peace and contentment. If you can't move Going to war will solve the problem of Liaodong, so why not do it."
The reason why Yunqing was able to be persuaded by Yuxi to rebel was because the soldiers and the common people were living too hard. He hopes to change all this with his own strength. So Qi Hao's words hit his weakness.
If this war can be avoided, at least tens of thousands of soldiers will not have to die. Thinking of Yu Xi's saying that the population of the world is dying and must recuperate, Yun Qing sighed, "Let me think about it."
After thinking about it all night, Yun Qing agreed to recruit Yan Wushuang. However, Yunqing and Yuxi have different ideas. His request is that Yan Wushuang must surrender unconditionally. If you want to bargain with him, there is no door.
It's not easy for Yunqing to let go. Han Jianming didn't say anything about Yuxi, but just nodded and said, "Okay."
Qihao sent Han Jianming out, and outside he lowered his voice and asked, "Uncle, are you sure?"
"I'm 30% sure." Hearing that it was snowing in Shengjing on the road, he was 70% sure of convincing Yan Wushuang. It's just that Yunqing's request is a bit harsh, so he is only 30% sure now.
Qi Hao said: "Uncle, if we can talk, we can talk, it doesn't matter if we can't agree, we must take care of ourselves." Qi Hao supports the surrender, half of the reason is that Yan Wushuang captured Qi Rui. Otherwise, how could they send someone to recruit Yan Wushuang when they had the upper hand.
Han Jianming nodded.
Brother Hua looked at Han Jianming and said in a deep voice, "Father, you must return safely. The Han family cannot live without you." Han Jianming is the pillar of the Han family. If he fell down, it would definitely hurt the Han family's vitality.
"Don't worry, I will return safely." If he was not sure, he would not volunteer. Mop Chinese
