Chapter 221 I am waiting for the front, absolutely invincible!
The Empress' eyes lit up, because the person who said this was Lin Beifan, her most important official.
Every time he opened his mouth, he always pointed to the core and brought hope at the same time.
"Aiqing, what's your opinion, tell me quickly!"
Lin Beifan said loudly: "I believe that the victims must be rescued, and they must be rescued immediately, without delay! If we don't save, the country will be in chaos, and Dawu will be destroyed!"
Everyone's faces changed dramatically, and they all scolded.
"Lord Lin, do you know what you- are talking about?"
"You actually said that our country will be in chaos and the great martial arts will perish.
"It's just giving up a group of disaster victims, can it shake my court?"
"Lord Lin, please be careful!"
"Why don't you apologize to Your Majesty?"
...
The queen's face was also a little ugly, but she had always trusted Lin Beifan, and she said calmly, "Aiqing, don't be impatient, please listen to Lin Aiqing's explanation first!"
The hall finally quieted down.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, this minister is not alarmist, but true!"
Lin Beifan said loudly: "Just now, the Minister of War, Mr. Li, said something very apt. The victims who can't survive are no longer human! They can do everything they can to survive and change their children. They don't have all the etiquette and shame. At this time, how can the victims of the disaster still take the imperial court in their eyes, and how can they still abide by the laws of the imperial court?”
"Aren't they going to...reverse?"
Everyone's faces changed slightly.
Lin Beifan continued: "Before, in Tangzhou, 30,000 soldiers had already revolted because they were deducted from their pay and could not afford to eat. They turned the grass into bandits and rebelled against me! What's more, these disaster victims who are about to lose their lives?"
"Food is the priority for the people! They can't even eat, and they are dying. What else can they do? They can only go against it! If they don't go against it, they can only live and die! If they go against it, there may be a way to survive!"
"Just ask everyone here, if it was you, how would you choose?"
"Are you opposed or not?"
Lin Beifan questioned the court officials loudly, his voice deafening.
All the officials who were targeted by Lin Beifan had their eyes flickering, avoiding Lin Beifan's eyes.
"It's self-evident that they will rebel!"
"Once it is reversed, the impact of the turmoil will not be solved by food! At that time, they will inevitably rush into the major rural towns, burn and loot, and plunder everything that can be plundered!"
"By that time, more than one million people will be affected, maybe several million, or even tens of millions!"
"A piece of life is ruined, and the people are not living!"
"The great vassals and dynasties will not miss such an excellent opportunity to attack our dynasty! At this time, we have lost the people's hearts, we have been stabbed by the people in the back, and we are unable to resist the heroes, so internal and external troubles... …”
Lin Beifan glanced at the audience: "I would like to ask, Your Majesty, and all your lords, can our imperial court still hold on? Can you still continue to wear fine clothes and food, and stand on the high hall to guide the country?"
Everyone's faces were heavy and apprehensive.
The court is their foundation!
Without the protection of the imperial court, they would not be able to enjoy everything they have now!
I can't even save my life!
The Queen's face is equally solemn!
Although she already has some trump cards, she is still unable to cope with such a crisis!
Once you fail, it's over, and you don't regret taking medicine!
Lin Beifan said loudly: "Our imperial court is now in a state of turmoil and danger, and we really can't go wrong! Once we make a mistake, the enemy will seize the opportunity! So, please think twice, Your Majesty, and think twice!"
Minister of War Li Kaiguang's tone was relaxed: "However, how do we save? Our capital is too far away from Jiangnan. Even if we prepare food now, it will take 10 days for everything to go smoothly, and the victims are starving to death!"
"Yeah, it's not that we don't want to save, it's really impossible!"
"The food is delivered, and everyone is almost dead. It's too late!"
...
The Empress looked at Lin Beifan with anticipation in her eyes: "Aiqing, do you have any solution?"
Lin Beifan bowed and said: "Your Majesty, didn't the King of Jiangnan advertise that there is food in the capital and let the victims come to Beijing to ask for food? We will let the officials along the way to help the victims! Although the local government has limited food, it is still possible to provide one or two meals. Yes, this is enough to last two or three days!"
"In addition, we will seize the time to transport food for disaster relief, and use the hovercraft to transport food, all the way to the south! If we go north and go south, we will have the opportunity to gather in the middle to help the victims!"
"This is the best way at the moment, please look into it, Your Majesty!"
The Empress nodded: "The soldiers are very fast! Where is the money Yuanshen, the Minister of the Household?"
"The minister is here!" The Minister of the Ministry of Housing stood up.
"Open the warehouse immediately to put food on it to help the victims!"
"The minister obeys the order!" The Minister of the Ministry of Housing said loudly.
"Where is Li Kaiguang, Minister of War?"
"The minister is here!" The Minister of War stood up.
"Immediately set up a hovercraft to transport food, and send troops to escort along the way!"
"The minister obeys the order!" The Minister of War said loudly.
"Where is the commander-in-chief of Jinyiwei?"
"The minister is here!"
...
In this way, the Empress issued the decree in an orderly manner.
After arranging a circle, the Empress turned her gaze to a thin figure in the court, and said, "Lin Aiqing will be in charge of the disaster relief this time! Fengde Tianfu Palace Chief and Guozijian Sacrificial Wine Lin Beifan are the imperial envoys, responsible for all disaster relief matters! The sword of Shangfang, if I come in person, I have the right to cut it first and then file it!"
"The minister obeys the order!" Lin Beifan accepted the order.
Then he took over the Shang Fang sword from Her Majesty the Empress, and hurriedly went to arrange disaster relief.
Seeing Lin Beifan leaving in a hurry, the queen murmured, "Aiqing, don't let me down!"
At this moment, involving the interests of all the officials in the court, no one was sloppy, and everyone acted very quickly.
Carload after carload of grain was transported from the granary to the Jingcheng River.
There, one after another hovercraft has already been built, and the iron chains are connected to form a huge land on water.
The food was transported on the hovercraft and then traveled all the way south to relieve the victims.
Now it's a race against time and speed!
"Okay, this ship has enough food for the victims for two days, the soldiers are very fast, and now set off immediately! Next, you will continue to transport food, stop at the coasts of various prefectures, and prepare together with the local officials to provide relief to the victims! "
"Yes, my lord!"
After the arrangements were made, Lin Beifan jumped on the hovercraft and shouted, "Go!"
The hovercraft pulled up the cloth sail, and slowly drove away from the capital relying on the wind.
At this moment, Lin Beifan beckoned, and the strong wind whistled, pushing the hovercraft to move forward quickly.
At the same time, the river at the foot of Lin Beifan also accelerated a lot.
With the combination of the two, the speed of the hovercraft is more than doubled!
Some rivers are twice as fast!
This situation was quickly discovered by everyone.
"Why is the boat so fast?"
"what happened?"
...
Lin Beifan shouted loudly: "This is God's will! God bless my Dawu! God bless my Dawu people! Day and night, full speed ahead!"
"Yes, my lord!" Everyone cheered and said in unison.
Thanks to the signboard of "God's Will", everyone is united, united in one heart, and moving forward at full speed.
Jiangnan is more than 8 miles away from the capital. Even if you take the waterway, day and night, you can travel about 80 miles a day, and it is estimated that it will take about 10 days.
The victims traveled all the way north. If they want to meet the victims, it is expected to take seven or eight days.
This is already a pretty smooth case!
But now, in only three days, they have actually crossed more than 6 miles!
It has to be said that it is an unrepeatable miracle!
All of this can only be attributed to the will of God. It is God who blesses it, and they don't know that someone is secretly "causing trouble".
Lin Beifan also breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "We will arrive in Huazhou in half a day, and most of the victims are there! Hurry up and inform the prefect of Huazhou, and immediately set the fire to boil water. As soon as our food arrives, we can plant rice. Porridge is cooking!"
"Yes, my lord!" Jin Yiwei took the lead and rode on a big horse on the shore.
At this time, next to the Huazhou River.
The prefect of the prefecture sighed a long sigh as he looked at this group of displaced, yellow-faced and thin-skinned victims.
Food is out!
Four days ago, after he received the task of disaster relief, he immediately raised food and relieved the victims.
However, as the local government, the food on hand is really limited, and it cannot support the millions of disaster victims.
Only one person can feed one meal a day, and a meal is only one bowl of porridge, and there is only a small amount of rice in the porridge, and two or three mouthfuls are eaten.
It can only guarantee that you will not starve to death, and you will not be able to eat enough.
In order to keep the black gauze hat on his head, he had to resort to some means to fish out some food from wealthy families.
Even the crumbs were scavenged and fed to the victims.
So, it only lasted three days.
Now, there is no food on hand, the victims have been hungry for a day and do not want to leave.
If the food for disaster relief does not come in another day, it is very likely that something unforeseen will happen!
Victims who cannot survive can do anything!
However, he also knew that the capital was too far away from here!
It will take seven or eight days to bring the food from there at the fastest, and it will be too late!
His official position has also reached the top, and it is unknown whether he can survive or not!
"How can this be good?" The prefect's face was full of sorrow, and his hair was gray.
At this moment, a guard in Jinyi came hurriedly riding a tall horse.
While riding a horse, he shouted: "Report! In one hour, the food for the disaster relief of the imperial court will be delivered! Please boil the fire and boil the water immediately, and the food can be put into the pot as soon as it arrives!"
The prefect was shocked to hear the hallucination.
Immediately, he hurried up to meet him, and asked Jin Yiwei, "So soon? The food for the imperial court will arrive in an hour? You didn't tease the official?"
Jin Yiwei's face was a little unpleasant: "What are you doing to deceive you? This is the military situation. Who dares to lie about the military situation, this officer will die?"
The prefect is overjoyed: "Okay! Is it food transferred from other places?"
Jin Yiwei replied, "It came from the capital!"
The prefect is in a mess: "From the capital... how is it possible? Even if you fly, you can't fly that fast!"
Jin Yiwei waved his hand impatiently: "Stop talking nonsense, quickly boil the fire and boil the water! If you delay the business, I will ask for you!"
The prefect gritted his teeth and said in a loud voice, "Boil the fire and boil the water immediately!" Ten.
