Chapter 76 Crisis
The cold winter has passed, and this winter is extremely cold compared with previous years. In many places in the world of St. Lan, many people have frozen to death. There is nothing they can do. Although kind people run to tell each other, people's estimation of this cold is very insufficient, so many poor people are frozen alive. Death, and the Holy See came forward at this time. They said that it was because there were too many heresions that angered God, and God lowered this cold winter as a warning to the world.
In the face of unknown things, the power of religion is so horrible. People run to tell each other and announce the punishment of God's arrival, and people's hatred and fear of Tang Feng have deepened another layer.
And on the Vera grassland, due to the large amount of materials obtained, this winter is the best winter for Villa people. Few Villa people have been frozen to death. In the previous season, a large number of Villa people will survive this cold winter. Ladel timely announced that this is all because of Tang Feng's Merit, God sent Tang Feng to save the suffering Villa people. Tang Feng's identity as the person chosen by God was also mentioned by the Villa people. Invisibly, Tang Feng's rule in Villa became stronger.
In the same season, a person gets two different comments. I don't know what kind of expression Tang Feng will show when he learns the news.
However, Tang Feng's expression is obviously not particularly good. In his king's tent, there are the most powerful marquises on the Vera grassland, but their faces are so good that they can't see anywhere.
Lufa'er first said, "Your Majesty, spring has come. We urgently need outside supplies, food, cloth and iron, but in previous years, a large number of businessmen should have come to the Vera grassland. Now not only have not come here, but also many people have left Villa. Grassland."
Husalepov also said immediately, "Your Majesty, after winter training, we now have less than a month of Vila's grain, and there is also a great shortage of all kinds of iron. In previous years, no one cares about the horses, sheep, cashmere, etc. that should have been sold, and the life of the people has become extremely difficult."
Tang Feng silently listened to the reports of the two people, which is indeed a very difficult problem, although Tang Feng has made up his mind to rely on war to seize honor and wealth.
However, it is not this time. After a winter of training, the army needs to be trained. After a winter of consumption, the people need to supplement supplies, cattle, sheep and horses need to graze, and urgently need external supplies. Now, it is the most vulnerable time for Villa. After a winter of integration, Dawu Villa The union is at a critical time, and we can't act rashly.
No one expected that the energy of those businessmen was so huge that they could affect almost the whole world of St. Lan to a certain extent.
Tang Feng asked at this time, "Is there any news from Leo?"
Mo Shahan said, "General, there is news from Leo that the merchants of Isa and Mandin's actions are extremely powerful, and according to their news, Pu'ao has now blocked the commercial road to our Villa in Pu'ao territory. Even if they want to deliver supplies to us, Puyi is not It will be agreed that some merchants once wanted to come to Villa Grassland to sell some materials at a high price, but they were intercepted by Puo, the goods were completely confiscated, and the merchants were also heavily fined.
After listening to Mo Shahan's words, all the nobles looked at each other in con'spect. Chu An shouted, "These damn things, they seem to trap us to death, damn it."
The atmosphere was a little dull for a while, and there were only people's breathing and Chu An's own shouting in the king's tent.
At this time, the messenger came outside and said, "Someone outside asked for a meeting, calling it purple clothes."
"Oh? Let him in." When Tang Feng heard that the man was called purple clothes, he knew who sent him, so he let that man in.
At this time, a man in purple came in. He looked at Tang Feng and made a ceremony and said mechanically, "The leader said that this matter is fierce and strange. Please be careful in black. He has something else to do now, saying that there is nothing he can do, but please remember the appointment in May. Wait, I'll see you again in Berlin."
After listening to this sentence, Tang Feng was very helpless and said, "Okay, tell your leader when you go back and tell him that you know."
The man in purple had another etiquette and then retreated. At this time, Mo Shahan saw the doorway and asked, "Is the general going to Pu'ao?"
Tang Feng said, "That's good."
After hearing this, Mo Shahan quickly saluted and said, "General, this matter is a must. The body of the general's daughter is related to the life and death of millions of people. How can it be easily risked? Please think twice about this matter."
Other people were still a little vague, but when they saw Mo Shahan like this, they all reacted and knelt down and said, "General/Your Majesty, please think twice."
Tang Feng laughed and said, "You don't have to persuade me. I'm determined. I'd like to see what kind of person the Rist, known as the Eternal King of Pu'ao, is. Besides, you think there is something else that can trap me in the world."
When everyone saw Tang Feng's decision, they had no choice but to do so. Only Chu An still knelt on the ground and said, "If the general goes to Pu'ao, then you must take Lao Chu with you, otherwise I won't agree."
After hearing this, Tang Feng laughed and said, "Okay, okay, okay, I will take you with me at that time. Now we'd better solve this current matter first."
After hearing this, everyone got up and smiled at each other, only to find that they had forgotten the purpose of coming this time, but because of Chu An's break, the atmosphere was much more relaxed than just now.
As soon as Husalepov smiled and disappeared, he still said, "If there are no more sufficient supplies, then the food will be a disaster for our Villa after a month."
Tang Feng asked, "Can't we Villa even feed ourselves?"
Husalepov said, "It was not before, but the war of the jihadist army has caused us a lot of losses. Although your majesty has been compensated, a large part of it is gold coins. Our current situation is that we have gold coins, but we can't buy anything."
Everyone was a little funny. They had money and couldn't buy anything, but then they began to worry.
Tang Feng looked a little ugly at this time and asked, "Are those businessmen so obedient and don't make money? Don't they look like businessmen?"
Yes, businessmen pursue profits. Don't you have money to make money?
Lu Fa'er said with a wry smile, "Your Majesty, according to the news, the scattered merchants are strictly forbidden to trade with us. If they are found, they will comprehensively suppress the merchant, and these merchants are not idle at the moment. They are hoarding supplies and seem to be waiting for something. The result is probably waiting for us to give in before coming to our Villa grassland to make a lot of money.
Sha Yi said angrily at this time, "Well, these businessmen think it's beautiful."
Tang Feng looked at the people below and said with a smile, "Look at you, what are you worried about? Do you remember what I once said? Since you don't have it in your hand, go and grab it."
Mo Shahan said, "General, after a winter of training, the army needs to rest. Moreover, the supplies in our army are also very insufficient, and the soldiers' equipment needs to be replenished after winter."
Tang Feng took a look at Mo Shahan and said, "It doesn't matter. We are just going to loot supplies this time, not to fight."
After a pause, Tang Feng asked, "This time our goal is the Kingdom of Poly. According to the information obtained, the Kingdom of Poly is very empty on its border with us because it wants to prepare for the Cangyue Empire in the south. Moreover, the news from elsewhere, Pauli's Royal Knights in China have experienced the battle of jihad. It hasn't been fully supplemented, so let's rob him.
Since silence has decided the policy, the next step is to determine the force, but this problem needs to be carefully thought out.
After all, it is just a looting, and the requirement is to move quickly. Tang Feng finally determined that this time, it is only a large armed force composed of 500 Dawu Guards and 10,000 jihadist forces in Ofaer, and the other forces are from three tribes on the western border.
A total of 30,000 people were led by Tang Feng himself. During Tang Feng's expedition, the marquises of several tribes jointly managed the affairs here.
When Tang Feng ordered him to go down, everyone couldn't help but be surprised by Tang Feng's fierce behavior. Seeing everyone's surprised eyes, Tang Feng said, "Chu An, prepare to go with me."
Chu An said excitedly, "I will obey the order." After saying that, he rushed out and prepared to go on an expedition with Tang Feng.
Seeing Chu An running out happily, Tang Feng turned around and said to the rest of the marquises, "Well, I'm going to go on an expedition immediately. This time, I must let those businessmen know that it is impossible to rely on these means to make us surrender."
Everyone bowed and said, "I wish General/Your Majesty a victory."
Tang Feng returned to his big account, but Felitina was sitting and looking at the scenery outside the window in a daze. Seeing the man who came back, Felitina asked, "Are you going on an expedition?"
Tang Feng was a little curious. This was the first time that Felitina took the initiative to talk to herself since that wedding, so she said, "Yes."
Fertina bit her lip and said, "Be careful."
Tang Feng smiled and suddenly said, "What, are you starting to know that you care about your husband?"
When Felitina heard this, her face suddenly changed, as if she suddenly thought of something and stopped talking.
When Tang Feng saw her like this, he just shook his head and said, "Wait for me to come back."
At noon, Tang Feng had gathered more than 10,000 troops and headed towards the border between Villa and Poly.
