Chapter 763: Grain storage, unlimited grain storage

Just after the failure of diplomacy, the Goguryeo court could no longer hide any news. Any nobleman with some identities knew that a disaster had come. Perhaps there would be no need for the Tang army to fight, and a war would break out in the country because of food.

The Golden Grain Chamber of Commerce was taken away by Lu Yuan and Gaisuwen by a thousand stones of grain, but it was just a piece of the ox. In the entire Goguryeo grain industry, the Golden Grain Chamber of Commerce accounted for 60%. It can be said that every city has their own grain shops. Even if there is no grain from the Tang Dynasty, they can be sold normally in China for one month.

However, during this period, even if anyone has food in his hands, he will have to hide it. No one dares to publicize how much food he has, otherwise the people around him will be surrounded by red eyes and may do something dangerous for the food for survival.

But even so, there is no airtight wall in the world, especially when there is a problem with the internal staff of the Jinliang Chamber of Commerce, the custodian robbed himself. After a shopkeeper accidentally revealed the data on the grain storage at the headquarters, the people who had been panic for half a month were uneasy.

Starting from a small city, several vicious gangsters became entangled and directly snatched the Jinliang Chamber of Commerce’s grain shop in that city.

The Jinliang Chamber of Commerce was very angry and sued the government for severe punishment of the murderer. However, after dealing with this group of robbers, the robbery was recurred when it was approaching the city, and then it was like a powder barrel detonating. Which city does not have those people who can't eat?

This not only refers to the poor people, but also wealthy people. People who need to buy food in the city usually do not have land and rely on money to buy food. But now, if you, a grain business, don’t sell grain in the city, what should we eat?

The hungry people do not matter whether they have money or not. Instead of stealing food from other passers-by, it is better to come and rob the grain store directly once and for all, and can also relieve their hatred. Although the grain store explained that the Tang Dynasty did not give a way to live, we did not know any Tang people and only found those who cut off our food.

So in three days, all the Jinliang Chamber of Commerce grain shops in all cities across the country were stolen, and the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce had fainted three times.

He went to the Goguryeo Palace to file a lawsuit against the emperor. The Goguryeo King had been vain for a long time, and he agreed to recover Lu Yuan and Gaisuwen.

But as soon as this man left, Yuan Gaisuwen summoned a confidant.

"I heard that this Golden Grain Chamber of Commerce controls the sale of 60% of the country's scattered grains. Haha, it's time for them to contribute to the country. As the saying goes, the law does not punish the people, and the people are unforgivable, so it can only be their fault.

Go and take a team of people to find out where their headquarters of the business is located. These are all military rations for the future of our frontline."

The man said in disbelief: "This, yes, Lu, we are the government, will we just grab the grain directly..."

"Oh? Are we the government?

Well, when you ask your brothers to go, you are wearing casual clothes, and you are not allowed to reveal your identity. You can move more quickly. You can't waste a grain of food. Whether you can withstand the threats of the Tang Dynasty depends on your efforts."

Yuan Gai Suwen said indifferently that what he thought of at this time was the grain mountain in the Tang Dynasty, which could be eaten for ten months. If they did not attack, would they have to spend ten months with us and we would win?

Three days later, the Jinliang Chamber of Commerce announced its dissolution and the president hanged himself at his home.

From then on, the food dispute in Goguryeo became even more intense, and bandits in various places continued to rob, but were frightened by the pressure of the government, and no one dared to attack the government's granary.

In addition to the government, many wealthy nobles must have had their food garrison for many years. At this time, they all hid their strengths and kept a low profile. Even the playboys, nobles, etc. who used to harm the people were much more restrained. No one wanted to have an intersection with a group of people who were red-eyed.

Goguryeo, which was so undercurrent, spent two months like walking on thin ice. The weather was getting colder and winter was about to begin. I always heard that the Tang Dynasty garrison was attacking Goguryeo on the border, but a few months passed, and no soldiers of the Tang Dynasty moved, and there was no war at all.

At this time, the people stopped doing it. Since there was no war, why should the court collect 20% of our food for? It’s so cruel if we don’t keep food for a year?

The second wave of rumors broke again, and Yuan Gaisuwen wanted to cry without tears. It’s not that we don’t want to fight, but that they don’t fight with us. They just eat and drink under the city every day. We belong to the city guarding the city. We can’t call them to attack the city, nor can we attack the enemy by 100,000, or that’s a death.

But you said that at this critical moment when the troops were at the city, would we withdraw our 100,000 troops and leave 20,000 to defend the city on a daily basis?

This is even more impossible. What if it was the Tang Dynasty's exhausted military strategy? We deliberately neglect our morale so. When our army retreats, 200,000 people will directly attack the city and take down the city without any effort. This is not fun.

So now Yuan Gaisuwen can be said to be in vain. The Tang Dynasty is so conspiring and he is helpless. This is not here to fight, but it is obvious that he is fighting for national strength.

After the beginning of winter, Goguryeo became even more nervous because more people had no surplus grain at their homes and refugees had already appeared in many places.

At this time, many people remembered the inexplicable strange leaflet a few months ago. A piece of white paper said that the Tang Dynasty had food, fields, endless food, and large fertile acres of land that were not cultivated. People from other countries were also welcomed to join the Tang Dynasty's nationality and share wealth.

When this idea was not worried about food and drink, the people of Goguryeo used to treat it as a joke. However, now they have to beg for food. Many people's thoughts grow bigger and bigger, and they are out of control. So after some preparation, the first wave of pioneers who gritted their teeth and tried it appeared. Although they were just a team of more than 20 people, they were the first people to join the Tang Dynasty to join the nationality of the Tang Dynasty.

These people are obviously smart people, knowing that this is a treason, and there is no place to stay in the country, and there is no food or food. If it is cold winter, it will be a death. Instead of doing this, it is better to go out and try it. Even if you are beaten to death by the Tang people, it will not be a loss. At most, you will be over. For this purpose, more than 20 people sneaked in Pyongyang. After more than ten days of suffering, they finally bypassed Anshicheng and walked to the opposite Tang army camp.

"Report to the Grand Marshal, refugee, a group of refugees came from the front of the camp, claiming to join the Tang Dynasty." A scout from the military camp rushed over and rushed directly into the Grand Marshal's tent to report the report.

Li Jing and Du Ruhui were studying the war, but after hearing this, they stood up.

"really?

Hahahaha, Keming, great things are accomplished!

The fish have already taken the bait, and it is finally time to close the net."

"Congratulations to the Grandmaster."

"Let's go, let's personally receive the first batch of surrenders. Today I'll buy horse bones with a daughter!"
