"General Meng, I see that the Qifeng County Magistrate is talking lies with his eyes open. It must be that he hid the food......"

After saying goodbye to Qifeng County Magistrate and his group, the old man kept pausing the crutches in his hand and was very angry.

In times of crisis, people often hate the enemy who is at the gate of the city, but the compatriots who are even more despised.

The Qifeng County Magistrate insisted that Qifeng had no additional surplus. The old man witnessed with his own eyes that Qifeng County Magistrate had no intention of helping the 40,000 Wei Guishou who were in the Qin army camp.

The Qin people also waited for 10,000 porridge for me. As a Wei people, I was not as good as the Qin people when I was killed.

The older man became more and more angry when he thought about it, and cursed: "General Meng, these corrupt officials, I hope the general will send someone to behead them and show them to the public..."

"Yes, the old man is right."

"The beheadings are still cheaper for them, and they have the Yi tribe."

······

The old men of Wei who followed the Qin army all agreed.

Meng Tian went to Qifeng to raise food, in order to kill the refugee camp. If you don’t drink porridge every day, you have to take the food back from Qifeng.

"Even older men, they are so old, why do they fight and kill as soon as they open their mouths?"

The spirit of the people in the Warring States Period was really extraordinary from that of later generations.

"Just relying on swords alone cannot solve the problem in front of you. Didn't the old man say that? Isn't there any food hoarded by Daliang merchants in Qifang City?"

"I was just angry that the Qifeng County Magistrate, as a Wei native, did not care about my life or death."

The old man snorted, biting his lips with one tooth, really gritting his teeth.

"With the attitude of Qifeng County Magistrate, will Qifeng merchants hand over the food obediently?"

Deep down, the old man was even more worried. If he returned without success and the Qin army would have a vain trip, he would probably not be able to get the right person to come up with the advice.

The three elders in the camp can be replaced at any time.

"There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. Now, I can only act according to the opportunity."

Meng Tian walked into an inn in the city. It was already the sun was facing west, and it was almost time to eat late.

In the era when there were no electric lights, dinner time was early. You should know that lighting oil lamps at night requires money to buy lamp oil.

The inn is a bit dilapidated, but the facilities are complete.

Meng Tian ordered the soldiers to camp around the inn. After the evening meal, a team of Qin troops would rotate the soldiers on the city wall.

"Another old man, after the evening meal, I will take you to visit the wealthy family in the city."

Meng Tian was just holding dry food and thinking about the big households in the city, and there seemed to be no particularly conspicuous person.

Unseal, is there really food?

······

"What are the actions of the general of Qin?"

After the evening meal, the Qifeng County Magistrate walked back and forth along the table in uneasy.

He could feel Meng Tian’s anger. However, Meng Tian did not show it on his face, so Qifeng County Magistrate was feeling like he was on pins and needles.

People who can control their emotions are much harder to deal with than those Qin generals who shouted to fight and kill at any disagreement.

"Meng Tian was stationed around the inn, and the soldiers at the city gate seemed to have increased their manpower." The county magistrate stood by respectfully and answered truthfully.

"If you stay, just station it. I don't plan to act rashly anyway."

What Qifeng County Magistrate said is true. Now that Zhao State and Han Dynasty are destroyed, Qin State's army will cover the sky and the sun. He will not foolishly stick out his neck.

Smart people will not clamor to go barefoot and stumbling behind Qin people, which can play the same role.

"Sir, I think Daliang is helpless."

The county magistrate hesitated and stared at the bronze lamp in a daze. The small amount of lamp oil had already bottomed out, and the flames on the rush grass gradually became a little dim.

"We can't stop the Qin army's formation by playing with these small methods now. Even if the Qin people did not raise food in the open seal, they were just transporting food from Guanzhong."

"Since the construction of the Zheng Kingdom Canal in Guanzhong, it has become a country of Tianfu. It has been harvested every year. The Qin people fought east and west to have enough food."

Qifeng is the place where merchants in Daliang are well-informed. The merchants who returned from Guanzhong brought back a lot of experiences from Qin.

"Hmph, when it comes to Zheng Guoqu, I really don't know what Han Wangan was thinking, but he actually wanted to send someone to repair water conservancy for Qin."

The Qifeng County Magistrate looked a little lonely. The little tricks he played with had no effect on Qin's attack on the six Shandong countries, but were just scratching the surface.

The ruler and ministers of Xianyang of Qin were in charge, cooperated continuously, and had good coordination. After the young Qin king took power, he destroyed the Three Kingdoms in less than ten years. This was a great achievement that had never been achieved since the seven heroes of the Warring States Period.

King Wuling of Zhao conquered Zhongshan and clamped it up, but it took almost twenty years.

The former overlord of the Central Plains, Wei Kingdom, is about to become the fourth country to fall under the chariot of the Qin army.

"Sir, the Qin general took his men out of the inn and went to Bai Mansion."

At this time, Gongcao from the county government rushed in in a hurry.

The Qifeng County Magistrate suddenly opened his eyes: "Meng Tian goes to Bai Mansion, can he still want to find someone to borrow food?"

······

There are two old stone statues placed in front of the door of Qifeng in front of a humble mansion, and the vermilion paint on the door is a bit off.

Under the reflection of the fire, this mansion does not look like a wealthy family.

Above the lintel, there is no calligraphy plaque with strong pen power.

You should know that the tradition of Chinese people paying attention to family lintels can last more than two thousand years later.

"Is this the Bai Mansion?" Meng Tian asked with a frown.

"Yes, this is indeed Baifu."

Meng Bao felt a little upset, but he personally asked the Qianshou in the city that he would not be wrong.

It was only when I arrived in front of the Bai Mansion that I realized it was not so easy to identify. Meng Bao walked around many places, and the mansion that looked a little rich, would not hang a plaque on the door lintel.

"Then go knock on the door first, hand me my prayer and be more gentle."

"promise."

Meng Bao took a bamboo slip made of poplar boards from Meng Tian's hand, looked it carefully with the fire, and confirmed that there was no way to admit the wrong way, so he walked forward with confidence.

"The Qin people are here to knock on the door!"

Behind the gate, there was a small hole in which the thin minister saw the Qin people step forward, quickly retreated and ran to the depths of the mansion.

"Master, the Qin people came to us, but the generals who led the troops came to knock on the door with a greeting."

"So, aren't the Qin people coming to trouble me with my Bai family?"

On the main seat of the hall, Bai Feng's eyes were shining with a gleam. After waved his hand, the guests he summoned quickly put away the bronze sword in his hand and retreated behind the screen.

After the fall of Zhao State, wealthy families such as Zhuo and Guo families in Zhao moved to Shu.

In Bai Feng's eyes, the land of Bashu is a land of barbarians.

Before the Qin army surrounded Daliang, Bai Feng saw that the situation was not good, so he quietly hid at the Qifeng stronghold of the Bai family. Unexpectedly, the Qin people came to the door so soon.
