715: Want to be affiliated with [two in one](1/2)
Chen Tang’s ominous premonition was quickly confirmed.
This is indeed a great demonic wind.
The city walls were dilapidated, the streets were bleak, and the buildings still had black marks after the fires raged, as if this place was an uninhabited dead city. Chen Tang rode into the city on a motorcycle and saw such a scene. After walking for a long time, he finally saw several curled figures nestled in the ruins and pulled something. She turned over and jumped off the motorcycle, stepped forward without hesitation, trying to get close to one of them.
"Master——"
Xun Ding looked at Chen Tang with a nervous expression.
Chen Tang waved his hand and told him not to be too nervous.
"I'm fine, just look."
If there was an existence in the city that could threaten her life, the city would not have been broken in less than half a day. Chen Tang supported his knees with both hands, bent down, and approached the old mother. The weather had not yet completely warmed up, and the old mother was wearing a thin coat. The outer layer of the coat was worn out, and there were not even the reeds filled inside. The exposed skin was frostbite, some of which were cracked, and pus was flowed out.
"My mother, what are you doing?"
The old mother is old and her ears are not very smart.
Chen Tang asked three times in a row, but the other party did not respond. Her body, which was so thin that she was only left with bones, trembled in the cold wind. She raised her hand and took off her outer shirt and covered the old man. Only then did the other party notice Chen Tang and turned her head tremblingly.
That was a pair of extremely turbid eyes.
When she looked down at the clothes draped on her shoulders, she fell to the ground like a dream, and hid back in fear. Chen Tang then saw clearly what the old man was holding, and there was a little bit of moss. Chen Tang raised his hand and waved Xun Ding back, signaling him to stay away, so as not to scare the big guy. When the other party was in a stable mood, "My mother, can you ask you about something?"
The old mother didn't know the purpose of Chen Tang.
Chen Tang said: "Where have the young and strong in the city gone?"
When siege, Chen Tang carefully discovered that the guards were all old veterans. Although there were military generals guarding the city, they were all white-haired veterans with weak strength. After entering the city, they were even more powerful. She had a vague answer in her heart, but she didn't dare to think about it.
The old mother said that her breath was unstable, and her speech was like a lake.
I could still tell what she said after I carefully identified it.
She said, "Let's go...all go..."
The old mother carefully identified Chen Tang's clothes with her turbid eyes. Seeing that she was dressed cleanly and decently, she suddenly knelt down on her knees and tried to close the stiff and unstretched knuckles covered with frostbite, making a big gesture to bow to Chen Tang, and she begged for food with tears in her voice. Chen Tang asked Xun Ding to bring the food. The old mother was so excited that she wanted to kowtow, but Chen Tang reached out to stop her: "Old man, don't do this--"
After getting the food, the mother didn't eat it by herself.
Instead, he waved to the ruins not far away.
After a while, a thin and dark figure crawled out from there and staggered to the old mother. The old mother carefully tore off a small piece and fed it to the child's mouth. People who saw this scene nearby gathered to kneel down towards Chen Tang.
They all came to beg for food.
Of course, some people also have fierce eyes.
But when she saw Xun Ding, who was tall and powerful around Chen Tang, she didn't dare to act rashly. Chen Tang asked Xun Ding to take all the dry food. At this time, she no longer cared about the others. A more terrible thought quietly arose, and it also made her fall into an ice cellar...
I'm afraid this city is not as strong as a young man.
Only the elderly and children are left.
After a while, Xu Quan came on a horse, his face was not very good: "Lord, before we arrived, the commander of this place led the young and strong to retreat, and all the food and property in the city were plundered and taken away. Before leaving, a big fire was set up, and more than half of the buildings in the city were burned."
Some families even hide food and can barely live for a few days.
More people are facing a desperate situation of running out of ammunition and food.
The old mother next to her was just looking for moss in the corner. However, she was old and weak, and what she found would be better snatched away by her body. When Xu Quan came, she saw someone tearing down the mud on the lake wall, mixed with reeds and hay, which could satisfy her hunger.
Chen Tang was impacted by the news brought by Xu Quan.
She murmured: "You did it well, you did it well!"
Chen Tang thought that the enemy chose to defend the walls and clear the fields to defend themselves and stop them from moving forward as much as possible. However, she didn't know that the other party was doing more ruthlessly. She took away the young and strong, left the old and the weak, and exhausted the ammunition and food in the city. Chen Tang and others came later. Is there still living people in this city? She looked at the people who almost came forward to grab food, but when she got it, she was a little afraid to think about it.
"Yong'an, go find your father and arrange someone to set up a shed to serve porridge..." Chen Tang was a little regretful at this moment and did not bring Lin Feng out. If she were there, the pressure on food would be much less, but Lin Feng stayed in Sibao County for cotton, and it was difficult to choose.
Xun Ding said: "Lord, our food is also..."
Chen Tang brought with him plenty of food.
Later, two batches of supplies shipped from the rear were received.
But according to the current situation, there is no enough food.
Chen Tang had no doubts: "Do as you do!"
Xun Ding had to hold his fists and respond: "I will obey the order."
Chen Tang's actions were not hidden from his three allies.
Tao Yan said, "Our Shen Junzi really does what he said, but I don't know how many businesses you have that can withstand such waste." There are also many old and weak in the city.
The consumption of these mouths is no less than that of young and strong. After eating food, the young and strong can fight for them. Feeding them to the old and weak is just a waste of water. Tao Yan is now urging the fire and wishing Chen Tang could take out all the food to do such stupid things that are unreward.
Chen Tang was in a very bad mood.
He looked down on Tao Yan: "Haha, the filial son and virtuous grandson have also begun to point fingers at your ancestors' pockets? Even if I bring your ancestors into the coffin, it is not your turn to take advantage of you. I don't want your bean sprouts to be kicked again, so I will close your anus."
Tao Yan stared at Chen Tang with a blue face.
But he did not dare to continue provoking this time.
It would be useless to be beaten by a fool with a brain.
What Chen Tang didn't expect was that she thought the three allies would watch coldly, but Qian Yong was the first to lend a helping hand. Of course, he didn't pay the grain - Qian Yong has been dependent on his classmate Zhang He for many years. Zhang He paid for the grain and paid for the ground, and he helped the other party fight - basically had a meal, and after eating the meal, he was worried about the next meal. However, he still had some people at hand.
There is no problem sending someone over to fight.
Chen Tang looked at him suspiciously and vigilantly.
Qian Yong grinned and said, "What are you doing like this? You are not the only one who is a human being, but the others are animals. But if you say something that is not very pleasant, Chen Jun is thankless to do such things and will not get rewards."
Realizing that Qian Yong had no malice, Chen Tang rarely let go of his guard and responded indifferently: "They are rewards when they are alive."
Qian Yong slapped his thigh and sighed, "I really should let Zhang Yongqing come over and see what the living saint looks like."
Chen Tang thought he was sarcastic and didn't want to pay attention.
Unexpectedly, Qian Yong took the initiative to explain: "I have no malicious intentions in my words. I praise you, really. Although our relationship is not good, I have to tell the truth that I have no intention of obeying anyone in my life, I will accept your Chen Youli's character."
Qian Yong didn't want to interfere.
But when Chen Tang not only said that he was doing it in real life, he felt that he should do something, and it would be so embarrassing to see.
He can't take out the food, so he can do it.
Finally, he wanted to ask Chen Tang a question.
Qian Yong has been in his heart for a long time.
"Does Mr. Chen have no secular desires?"
Chen Tang: "????"
This problem is a bit dangerous.
Fortunately, Qian Yong's words made the topic in a normal direction: "A person may live for fame and fortune, or for a fragrant car and a BMW, or for a beautiful woman... Chen Jun seems to be too harsh on himself, which is really not like an individual."
Chen Tang was silent for a while.
He said resentfully: "Actually, I love money very much."
Qian Yong suddenly thought he had heard the tinnitus wrongly.
"Love money?"
Chen Tang said helplessly: "How come he is the fate of losing money."
Anyone who has such a strange scholar who has a group of deposed lords will be empty. What else can she do besides having few desires? However, her truth has become a perfunctory excuse in Qian Yong's ears. He did not take Chen Tang's answer to heart.
When Qian Yong left, Chen Tang turned his head and said to Gu Chi.
"Why do I feel that Uncle Qian is seducing me?"
This man was deliberately showing goodwill and trying to attract her attention?
Gu Chi selectively ignored it and extracted key information: "He is just making an announcement to the lord and trying to repair the relationship between the two families. Uncle Qian and Zhang Yongqing have a delicate relationship. The two are still harmonious on the surface, but they have frequent conflicts behind their backs. If Zhang Yongqing wants to get rid of Uncle Qian and this burden, wouldn't he have to find a next family? If the lord can accept him, it would be better..."
Qian Yong wanted his own territory the most and took root in business, but he kicked the iron plate with Chen Tang, who seemed to be soft, and his vitality was severely damaged. He continued to participate in the Dragon Slaying Bureau to take the opportunity to gain a foothold, but his hopes are slim at the moment.
Since you cannot stand on your own, then continue to affiliate.
The affiliated Zhang He is a member of the relationship, and the affiliated Chen Tang is also a member of the relationship.
Even if there is a grudge, as long as Chen Tang's character can stand the test, it is also a guarantee for Qian Yong. However, for others, Qian Yong's closeness may be a good thing, but Chen Tang's territory is not large and he cannot afford to pay extra money to Qian Yong. If she accepts Qian Yong, she will have to pay money and grain, which is of low cost performance.
So, Chen Tang thought he didn't know about this.
But he did not refuse Qian Yong's show of kindness.
It's always a good thing to have few enemies.
Zhang He did not give Chen Tang too much time to recover. The war was about a soldier who was very quick and took advantage of the strong morale and took advantage of the strong to set off another city. But the result was obvious. The attack destination was a familiar scene, with only the old and weak remaining in the city, no young and strong, and no food. Zhang He said: "The enemy used his sinister intentions and deliberately used this trick to consume our food and grass."
Specifically-
Only Chen Tang and his family were consumed.
Tao Yan deliberately screamed and said sarcastically: "The fighter cannot be delayed. We should join forces with the leader and others as soon as possible to attack Ganzhou. Don't lose the big one because of small things."
