Huoye, Madam Went To the Sky Bridge Again To Set Up a Stall

  Chapter 1257 The precarious Daqian makes the situation worse

  Imperial Palace.

  Qianqing Palace, Qinzheng Palace.

  Xiao Junan sat in front of the table, looking at the food reminder memorial sent by Beijiang, his face sinking like water.

   Batches of grain and grass were transported to northern Xinjiang, but less than 40% of them were actually distributed in front of the 150,000 troops.

  The battle on the front line is intense. Knowing that those dog officials are full of courage, they can only continue to pretend to be deaf and dumb, so as to prevent them from jumping over the wall in a hurry.

  Food and grass often determine the success or failure of a war. If there is insufficient food and grass, soldiers cannot fight without food.

  Unfortunately, due to the drought in the north this year, the imperial court obviously cannot afford the rations for BJ's 150,000 soldiers.

  Xiao Junan looked through the memorials below, and asked for the disaster relief memorials sent by the officials in the south.

  The following is the detailed report of the drought sent by officials in the north. The harvest of the people in the fields this year is less than half of that of previous years. After paying taxes, every household cannot even solve the basic survival.

  The war in northern Xinjiang is serious, and the drought in the north is severe. Some refugees have begun to have an uprising.

   At a time when the work is precarious due to internal and external troubles, it can be said to be worse.

  Xiao Junan closed his eyes, hiding the exhaustion and determination in his eyes.

  The drought in the north must be expressed by the court, otherwise, once the people who have no food to eat revolt, it will add fuel to the current Dagan.

   After a few breaths of silence, Xiao Junan opened his eyes again, and called out in a deep voice, "Where is the Minister of the Household Department?"

   "The veteran is here."

   An old man kneeling in the Hall of Qinzheng stepped forward.

  Xiao Junyan ordered sternly: "Liangzhou, Bingzhou, and Youzhou are seriously affected by the disaster, and the orders go on, these three states will be exempted from taxes this year and next.

  The environment in Youzhou is even worse. The Minister of the Household Department personally escorted the relief bank to Youzhou to sit in town, and must appease the people of Youzhou. "

  Youzhou is mostly the main activity place of nomads, and the folk customs are sturdy and good at riding and shooting.

  Once these people are out of control, it is bound to bring a serious crisis to Dagan.

  The Minister of the Household Department put his head on the ground, and said in acknowledgment: "I obey the order!"

  Actually, two days ago, the emperor discussed the disaster situation in the north with him.

  In recent years, there have been constant wars in northern Xinjiang, and the treasury is empty. Where there is silver taels for disaster relief, we can only embezzle 300,000 taels of silver from the emperor's internal funds.

  I didn’t mention the specific amount of disaster relief money just now. I asked the Minister of the Household Department to raise part of the disaster relief money from wealthy businessmen and gentry along the way.

  Xiao Junan pushed the folder on his side to the table.

  Eunuch Anjin immediately held a blank imperial decree and placed it on the table respectfully with both hands.

  Xiao Junan got up, picked up the royal Langhao brush, and wrote the imperial decree as if he was fast and steady.

  I just heard him say in a slow voice: "The country cannot be without a king for a day, and the harem cannot be without a lord for a day. Since I came to the throne, I have not been conferred a queen. What do you love ladies think of the Anmei in the harem?"

  The words have been asked, and Xiao Junan's canonization decree has been completed.

  He squinted his eyes and stared at the wet ink on the imperial decree, with a gentle smile on his face that didn't reach his eyes.

  I hope Anmei will not disappoint him.

  If he could push the Huns back, he didn't want to use the strategy of injuring the enemy one thousand and self-defeating eight hundred.

  Northern Xinjiang can't stand it anymore, this is a fact.

  The 500,000-strong army of the Huns claims to have 100,000 iron cavalry, and Dagan Erlang, who guards the northern border, is no match at all. On average, five people can kill a Hun cavalry.

   One hundred and fifty thousand soldiers fighting against one hundred thousand iron cavalry is basically hitting a stone with an egg.

   It is not impossible to end this battle as soon as possible.

   It's just that the tricks were too insidious, and even hurt the people of Dagan in northern Xinjiang, as well as the 150,000 Dagan soldiers who resisted foreign enemies.
