Mang's father and son came to the house, but saw Mr. Liang Wei parking his car in front of the door, and Mang Shen had disappeared. Everyone stopped and Young Master Liang quickly came over to salute. Mang Mao returned the greeting and said: "You are so rude, how can you let a noble man stay at your door? Please forgive me. Please don't give up, sir, and rest your horse for a while."
Mr. Liang Wei said: "The king does not care about his family, and the war does not care about his body. This is the foundation of a scholar. Now my father takes the king's order to go out into battle, regardless of his family. Although the boy has not gone out to the battle, he is serving the young master on his father's order. He does not dare to care about himself, but he will be there immediately. Points."
Mang Mao said: "Young Master Liang Wei has a long and prosperous family, but Mang's family is not as good as that. However, we have destroyed our family and become a country, so we dare not follow. Mang Shen has been out in battle so many times that all the grain he has accumulated has been used up. Please wait a moment, sir. My father and son will sweep away the warehouse and collapse it." Cauldron to help.”
Mr. Liang Wei said: "Who doesn't respect the Mang family who are dedicated to the country? You are a young man who is careless and speaks indiscriminately. General, don't blame me!"
Mang Mao said: "Young Master has passed! 'A king does not care about his family in matters of war, and he does not care about his own life in war. This is the foundation of a scholar.' The words of a young master are like gold and jade. They should be inscribed on the right side of the throne to be vigilant at all times."
The two exchanged greetings. Mang's father and his son pulled the cart into the house. After the third son unloaded the truck, Mang Mao and the two gentlemen came straight to the hall. Seeing Shiren greeting him by the path, he returned the greeting and said, "Where is Shen'er?"
The master replied: "I'm going to say goodbye to my wife in the back hall."
Mang Mao scolded: "Ignorant madman, the king does not care about his family, and the war does not care about his own life. This is the foundation of a scholar. Now I have been ordered by the king to go into battle, but I am limited to family affairs. What's the point?" Shiren didn't know what he said and didn't dare to answer. Mr. Hu Zhong said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to be angry. Even though you say you don't care about your family, your moral integrity cannot be abolished. A young master is naturally kind and filial, which is rare and rare."
Mang Mao asked again: "Master, have you prepared all the food and fodder when you go into battle?"
Shi Ren said: "My Lord has just returned from the expedition, and the food fodder in the mansion has not been replenished. Now there are only three days' rations and daily horse fodder left, and the rest will be paid to the young master. However, it is still less than one baggage cart."
Mang Mao asked: "When we went out for the expedition the day before yesterday, we had no food and fodder to make up for it?"
Shiren said: "The Lord went on an expedition the day before yesterday and immediately used the grain stored in the mansion. The grain has been transferred from the warehouse, but it is on the way. At present, there is a military chaos, so it may be difficult to provide relief."
Mang Mao asked: "Where can the grain be transported?"
She Ren said: "There is no news yet. According to usual calculations, it should be just loaded and shipped, and it will arrive in three days. However, when the war is in chaos, we may need to find another way, or even suspend the shipment."
Mang Mao suddenly asked: "What is the usual way to transport grain into Liang?"
She Ren said: "Chen Liu entered Liang via two routes, either the South Road or the East Road. Now when encountering the police on the South Road, they usually take the East Road."
Mang Mao paused and said, "I was negligent! Please step aside. Gentlemen, please!"
The three of them went straight into the lobby. Mang Mao said: "Unexpectedly, I have to go out on a business trip due to family matters. I need to bother you, sir."
The two of them saluted and said, "What can I ask?"
Mang Mao said: "My family's land is in Chenliu, ninety miles away from the city. I went out to fight in a humble way, and the world was still peaceful, so I swept out my house, thinking that the grain could be delivered in just a few days. I was defeated, and at that time The world changed, and Daliang was suddenly involved in a war. The humble man didn't know what was going on, so he left all the grain and fodder to give to Lord Xinling before the battle. Now Shen'er went on an expedition, but there was no grain to use! And Chen Liu's grain was waiting to be shipped out. Daliang had several police officers a day, how could the grain and fodder be used? If you have access to the city, doesn’t it belong to others?”
Mr. Hu Zhong asked: "Will Chen Liu's grain be shipped out?"
Mang Mao said: "No news at all!"
Mr. Hu Zhong said: "This is difficult. If you can know where the grain cart is, you can also think of strategies."
Mang Mao said: "This is exactly what I need, sir, to help me!"
Mr. Cheyou said: "The top priority is to find the grain truck. Now that we have the grain truck, the choice is up to me. Where can I go?"
Mang Mao thought for a moment and said, "I still need Mr. Hu Zhong to help me with this matter!"
Mr. Hu Zhong said: "You should serve me!"
Mang Mao said: "Mr. Lao and Quanzi sneaked out of Daliang and intercepted the grain truck at Chenliu. They followed the camera. After that, I will adapt to the situation. If I don't have to do it, I hope you will do it for me."
Mr. Hu Zhong said: "The Lord sent me, but I dare not resign. May the Lord show me the rules."
Mang Mao said: "I send my eldest son Yin'er to accompany me. I have to rely on my husband to decide everything, and Yin'er will handle it on my behalf."
While they were talking, Mang Shen and Mang Yin, who had gone home first, arrived. Mang Shen is wearing bright armor, carrying a sword and a spear; Mang Yin has changed his clothes and is wearing a broad robe leisurely. The two of them had seen the ceremony and stood in the hall. Mang Yin said: "The bath is ready. Please take a bath with your father."
Mang Mao ignored Mang Yin for the time being and turned to Mang Shen and said: "There is not enough food at home to support us. You can go out with three days of grain. There are now war police everywhere and it is difficult to open the city gate. Yin'er and Mr. Hu Zhong followed Shen'er Leave the city and go straight to Chenliu to transfer grain and feed to the front of the battle."
Mang Shen was startled when he heard this, but he couldn't reply, so he had to bow quietly. Mang Yin was also surprised and glanced at Mr. Hu Zhong, only to see Mr. Hu Zhong nod his jaw slightly.
Mang Mao said: "Have you prepared all the grains?"
Mang Shen replied: "After my son returned home, he had prepared three days of grain, ten days of corn, and ten days of fodder. They have all been loaded into the cart."
Mang Mao said: "You will take the grain with you, but the carriage will not be sent. You will immediately follow Mr. Liang Wei back to Daliang Wei's Mansion to perform his duties, and report the shortage of food and fodder at home. He also said that Mr. Yin'er and Hu Zhong will be at the house soon. See you." Seeing that Mang Shen was confused, Mang Mao added: "Don't worry, there is Lord Xinling in front of the formation. He is a benevolent and righteous son, and he will not put you in trouble; and the food left by my father and son the day before yesterday should not be used up, it is enough. Support. With the police in Daliang, it may be difficult for Chen Liu to transport food into the city. The family can only use what they have and live frugally."
Mang Shen saluted, retired quietly, went to the side courtyard, took out the grains from the car, hung them up and went out.
Mang Yin said again: "The bathing soup is ready. Please take a bath with your father."
Mang Mao said: "Let's go to Nuange to discuss matters."
Mang Yin was puzzled and silent. Mang Mao ignored him and just invited the two gentlemen to go to Nuange. Mang Yin had no choice but to follow behind.
Entering the Nuan Pavilion, the four people sat down in order after reciting the ceremony. Mang Mao said to Mang Yin: "Chenliu's grain may have been transported out. If it is not intercepted, it will be plundered by the Qin people. You can change your clothes and follow Mr. Hu Zhong out of the city to Chenliu. Be sure to intercept the grain cart and not go to Daliang." .As for the disposal of grain trucks, we should adapt to the situation and decide with Mr. Hu Zhong."
Mang Yin said: "Don't you want to send it to the front of the formation?"
Mang Mao said: "If the situation is smooth, we will naturally send it to the front of the battle. But we should adapt to changes and do not hold on."
Mr. Hu Zhong asked: "Why do you do it first?"
Mang Mao said: "It all depends on Mr. Mao!"
Mr. Hu Zhong said: "I will fulfill my mission."
Listening to this heavenly answer, Mang Yin became even more confused and said, "Father, please make it clear!"
Mang Mao said: "When you were young, you and Mr. Hu Zhong took a car to Daliang Wei's Mansion and made it clear that the family's grain supply was cut off and they had to go to Chenliu fiefdom to transport grain. But I was on duty as a Daliang war policeman and the inside and outside were cut off. Please go out of the city with Daliang Wei."
Although Mang Yin still didn't know, he still replied "hey".
Mang Mao continued: "It is still a secret where Daliang Lieutenant came from. After you leave the city, turn to the road outside the east gate and go straight to Chenliu. Be sure to catch up with the grain transport convoy, and do not transport grain to Daliang."
Mang Yin said: "No luck?"
Mang Mao said: "Don't be lucky! Although there is a shortage of food at home, we can still cope with it by saving money. If we rush to transport food into a dangerous city, there will be no guarantee of unforeseen events."
Mang Yin said: "Then... before the formation..."
Mang Mao said: "If it can be done, we will temporarily return to Chenliu and gather the villagers to defend it. Otherwise, let Mr. Hu Zhong decide what to do."
Mang Yin held his hand and said: "Here!"
Mang Mao said: "The two gentlemen gave up their meal and went to take a bath for the time being. We will be with you when we are young."
Mr. Hu Zhong said: "Don't dare to disturb me!"
Mang Mao said: "Sir, why don't you stingy with a meal! Yin'er can accompany you. After the meal, you can wait for Mr. Hu Zhong to change clothes and prepare the car, and then you can go to Daliang Wei Mansion with you."
