Chapter 878

On the Jiade Hall.

He Jin, Yuan Wei, Yang Ci, and Zhang Wen stood side by side.

All of them had already learned that the Huang Jin Army had arrived in Taiyuan before entering the palace.

Why Liu Hong called them here was also obvious.

"Yuan Wei, Yang Ci!"

Liu Hong, sitting on the dragon throne, glared at Yuan Wei and Yang Ci standing below the hall and said through gritted teeth: "You asked me to lift the party ban, and I lifted it!"

"You asked me to distribute the money and grain from the West Garden to encourage the soldiers, and I distributed it."

"I also used the people you recommended."

"But what about now!"

"Give me an explanation, why are there more and more rebels, why are they getting closer and closer to Luoyang, and how did they run to Taiyuan Commandery!"

"How did the tens of thousands of rebels become a million now!"

"You tell me!"

Liu Hong was almost roaring.

That originally pale face showed an abnormal blood red.

Below the white jade steps, Yuan Wei, Yang Ci, He Jin, and Zhang Wen all knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, calm your anger."

"Your Majesty, calm your anger."

"Your Majesty's dragon body is important, please calm your anger."

Liu Hong's eyes were about to spit fire.

Calm his anger?

"Your Majesty."

Grand Tutor Yang Ci, holding his tablet, raised his head and held up the tablet, saying: "This old minister thinks that the weight of a million rebels could cross hundreds of miles from Jizhou and pass through Heishan; there must be something tricky about this."

"The weight of a million rebels, without grain, without supplies, and without baggage, how did they cross the vast mountains?"

"Also, why did these rebels abandon the cities to the south and not attack and plunder grain and baggage, but instead ran to the sparsely populated Bingzhou?"

Yang Ci's words instantly caused a flash of brilliance to pass through the eyes of Yuan Wei, who was to the side.

Without baggage, without grain, how did the Huang Jin rebels cross Heishan?

Yuan Wei had been considering this question all the way here.

A million people.

It takes at least half a month to travel from Xiaquyang in Jizhou through Heishan to Taiyuan Commandery.

In these half a month, how much grain do a million people need to eat?

At the very least, hundreds of thousands of shi.

Where did so much grain come from?

Yuan Wei suddenly remembered something.

After Duan Yu arrived in Jizhou, he went to the Zhongshan Zhen clan.

At first, Yuan Wei didn't take this matter to heart; after all, it wasn't a big deal.

Duan Yu made a big scene at the Zhen clan because of a daughter of the Zhen clan, Zhen Jiang.

Among them, what Yuan Wei paid most attention to was just that the white paper and snow salt that suddenly appeared in Jizhou last year were Duan Yu's industries.

This was a point that Yuan Wei paid more attention to.

And it is said that Duan Yu, after the white paper and snow salt were intercepted by the Zhongshan Zhen clan, made the Zhen clan pay a lot of grain in a fit of rage.

It is said there were hundreds of thousands of shi.

Duan Yu's 10,000 Liangzhou troops certainly couldn't eat this much grain. ===== CHAPTER 880 =====
