Chapter 741: Iron Rooster Plucking
Faced with the commanders of more than a dozen Xuanfu guards, everyone was aggressive in their emotions, but Ye Chunqiu sat calmly. He seemed to be thinking something in his heart, thinking about something.
He could see that these Qiu Ba wanted to give him some advice, but he knew very well that he looked childish and might not be able to suppress others.
Ye Chunqiu sighed in his heart, but immediately said, "I am hereby order to provide relief. Datong needs to get rid of the epidemic first, and the court's money and food will arrive immediately."
When he heard that he wanted to get rid of the epidemic first, the commander Liu Shen seemed to be the leader of the guards. He immediately furiously said, "What? By then, I will probably die. How can I get rid of the epidemic now?"
Ye Chunqiu said: "I have my own way."
When he said this, everyone couldn't help but burst into laughter. They had some respect for Ye Chunqiu before, but now this last little respect has been swept away.
Liu Shen sarcastically said, "Is that true? Smallpox has always been popular, and I have never heard of anyone who can clean it up. Only the damn people have died. It was not until thousands of miles away that it was cleaned up. Could it be that the imperial envoy was happy to find us?"
Everyone laughed again, and many people looked at Ye Chunqiu with some contempt.
Ye Chunqiu just reported his identity as a Hanlin attendant, and the imperial envoy was of different ranks. If he was just a patrol, he would be fine if he was just a censor. But in the case of Datong, the court should at least send a person with the title of Assistant Minister, but he was just a Hanlin attendant.
Ye Chunqiu was making a big noise, ignoring their laughter and continued: "If you raise troops for a thousand days, you will use troops for a while. Since you can save disasters, you will be unable to rely on the guards. I ask you to come. First, you are asking you to restrain your headquarters and strictly prohibit plundering and rioting soldiers from bullying the people. Anyone who invades the people will be killed without mercy."
Only when I heard this, everyone's faces changed. In this situation, it actually couldn't restrain the government army at all. A group of desperate people, what would you use to restrain them? And taking advantage of the situation to rob, it was normal. Now Ye Chunqiu's strict ban and killing without mercy made many people look gloomy and pursed their lips and silent.
Ye Chunqiu continued: "In addition, it is to prevent the epidemic. The battalions will gather together tomorrow to select healthy soldiers and all of them will be vaccinated. Those who have vaccinated acne will temporarily follow the control of this imperial envoy and carry out..."
When he said this, Liu Shen was angry again. Qiu Ba in the border town had always been fearless. He smiled at Ye Chunqiu and said, "Gathering? Will you continue to get infected with the plague? Buy acne, what acne? You can't guard against this smallpox. God is angry and will collect whoever you want."
Ye Chunqiu ignored him and continued: "In addition, the military and civilians in Datong should work together. To overcome the difficulties, they should be twisted into a rope. The money and food of the court are probably not delivered in time. However, many victims outside are still short of food and clothing. Now the weather is getting hot, so there is no need to worry about wind and cold. However, this food cannot be lacking. We are all officials of the court, and all the food and food are allocated to the people. From now on, each battalion will count the remaining food and grass. In addition to ensuring the use of each garrison, the rest of the food and grass must be allocated and distributed to the affected people..."
What……
If Ye Chunqiu was just robbing at the beginning, it would be easy to say. Although everyone could not understand the so-called acne afterwards, he said that it could prevent the epidemic. He would just be a nerd and talk nonsense. But the problem now is that he actually wants to hand over the food in the army.
Because it is a border army, it often has grain storage, which can last for about one or two months. But the problem is, who knows when the court's relief will arrive. As long as there is an epidemic, even if the court has food, who dares to send the food?
In this situation, it is very likely that the military and civilians in Datong will die. Although the court will think of some solutions, it is a drop in the bucket. Now the most important thing is to save yourself. Others cannot rely on themselves.
During the famine, any grain of food is life-saving. Ye Chunqiu actually wanted everyone to evenly release the grain to save people. How did this happen?
Liu Shen said sternly: "Envoy Qin, what do you mean..."
The other commanders all showed dismay on the ground, and some even felt indignant.
You are the imperial envoy, you speak beautifully, but brothers want to help you? You represent the court. But now that such a thing happens, where is the court?
Although these people did not dare to rebel, they could not imagine that they wanted the iron rooster to pluck their feathers.
Ye Chunqiu knew that when facing these Qiu Ba, they must not be timid. If they take a step back, they will gain a better position.
So Ye Chunqiu said in a tone that he was completely undiscussed: "I am an imperial envoy and acted according to the order. I am here. If the emperor comes in person, what the Japanese official said now is like an imperial edict. You all have family members. Let me decide whether you obey orders. I will say it again. If you dare to plunder the troops, dare not obey orders, and cannot share the difficulties with me and the victims, it is to deceive the emperor and the emperor."
These words were enough to shock Qiu Ba and others.
Everyone was speechless, but Liu Shen said sarcastically: "Human life is at stake, please don't make any trouble."
Ye Chunqiu said calmly: "I will admit all the consequences, and you can just be ordered."
Speaking of this, Ye Chunqiu had no room for discussion at all. Seeing this, Liu Shen and others had to retreat hatefully.
The group left the government office and rode on horses, and they had to complain. Zhao Shen's face turned pale. Now this Datong is like a ghost town, with people sleeping in the open on both sides of the road. Occasionally, some coughs would come from or in the remote streets and alleys, a burst of crying sounds would come.
Crying either means **** or death.
Although it was early summer, it was still a little cold in the night in Datong. Under the moonlight, Zhao Jin, the commander of Yunchuan Guard, pied his horse to Liu Shen with a little laugh and said, "The Datong Guard has the largest reserves, this time..."
"It's not that easy." Liu Shen said directly. Under the moonlight, his expression seemed particularly loud. He continued slowly: "Food is the lifeblood now. This is not under the feet of the emperor, nor in Jiangnan. This is Datong, which is beyond the reach of the court after disasters."
He did not lower his voice. This attracted the attention of many people, and the commanders of each guard looked at him in surprise.
Zhao Jin couldn't help but say, "Why, Commander Liu dares to disobey? I know that you have some relationship with the people in the palace, but... do you still dare..."
