"Water! Water…water…"
"Look, look…"
In the fields, the soldiers cheered excitedly. They took off their shoes and socks, ran barefoot into the mud, and jumped up and down.
Some people took a water hose and rinsed their heads vigorously.
They lacked water.
Yang Sichang, Xiong Wencan, and the others were completely dumbfounded. They were so excited that their faces turned red."State Duke Ji, you are…truly a god.”
"Such irrigation has never happened in history. Deity Jiang, please accept my worship…"
"Generals, please rise!"
Jiang Feng closed his folding fan and quickly stopped the two of them from bowing."This method should be popularized immediately. Armistice and rest, solving the people's livelihood is the top priority.”
"But…"
"Li Zicheng's army is just a hundred miles away."”
"General Yang."
Jiang Feng smiled mysteriously and used his folding fan to block the sunlight."If the imperial court can relieve the sufferings of the people, even if Li Zicheng wants to lead the army here, will the soldiers in the army be willing to listen to Li Zicheng or go home to take care of their parents?”
Yang Sichang was stunned for a moment before he understood."State Duke is truly wise."
The meaning was obvious.
They helped the people of the Central Plains distribute food, irrigate their farmlands, and resolve the drought.
In this way, every household saw hope, and the rebellious soldiers unconsciously wanted to go home.
Compared to the army, the hearts of the people were more important.
He didn't bring much water pump, but there were at least 70 to 80 of them, as well as a generator.
The problem now was the problem of diesel. They did not bring much, but the factory had a lot of it, enough to last them for a month.
Thousands of soldiers, in groups of three to five, quickly spread out in all directions.
Food was distributed and irrigation was done. The mighty team scattered to the various villages like a goddess scattering flowers.
For a moment, news of Immortal Jiang came from Da Ming, and it spread everywhere.
The distribution of food was not a one-time distribution. Instead, it was to set up a disaster relief corps that was responsible for cooking and letting the nearby people come to eat every day.
He acted like a big pot.
After all, food was limited. It was impossible to save millions of refugees.
Therefore, it was fine as long as he did not starve to death.
This was a massive operation that required the participation of all the provinces in the Central Plains. It couldn't be completed overnight.
A few days later.
In the army tent.
The guard ran in from outside, panting."" Lord Governor, Duke Ji has already deployed all the troops in the army and scattered them all over the place. Currently, there is almost no one left in the army…"
"What?"
The spike on Sun Chuanting's thigh had already been removed. Wrapped in a bloody white cloth, he stood up."Where is Jiang Feng now?"
"Milord, Duke Ji is outside the city…"
"Prepare the horses. Quickly bring me there."
Sun Chuanting was already used to minor injuries, so he didn't mind at all. He rode on his horse, took a few people with him, and galloped away like a tiger.
It was neither far nor near. When they arrived outside the city, they were dumbfounded.
The Ming army stretched as far as the eye could see. Everyone was holding a water belt and a water pump as they stood in the fields to irrigate.
The people in the city and the nearby villages held broken bowls and lined up to receive the food.
"This…"
Reining in the reins, Sun Chuanting jumped off the horse and choked on the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
"The governor is here, the governor is here…"
Someone shouted. Jiang Feng, who was sitting on a rocking chair with a cigarette in his mouth and his eyes closed, slightly opened one of his eyes and narrowed it.
Chen Yuanyuan and Liu Ru were accompanying each other, and a mahogany tea tray was placed in front of them.
A faint fragrance wafted out from the tea bowl as Chen Yuanyuan carefully poured the tea.
"Hey, hey, your hand gestures have to be steady…"
Jiang Feng saw that something was wrong and immediately sat up."How did I teach you? When making tea, one must be calm, steady, and calm. If you are so fast, you will definitely not be able to brew the fragrance of the tea.”
"Sir, this servant understands."
Chen Yuanyuan felt shy. Her slender hands pinched the teapot handle and slowed down.
The surroundings were extremely busy, and Master Jiang was enjoying himself to death.
"Lord Jiang, you're so imposing…"
Sun Chuanting came with his hands behind his back and a saber slung over his shoulder. He walked forward and looked down at them."Now, the people inside and outside the city are in fear and trepidation. The rebel army may come at any time. Do you know how terrible the people in Guanzhong are?”
"Lord Governor, you don't dare to speak carelessly.”
Before he could finish speaking, a few commoners holding broken bowls interrupted,"Lord Jiang is a living Bodhisattva who saves people in distress…"
"Yes, I am. My land has been barren for many years. Now, Lord Jiang has watered it for me and brought me corn seeds…"
"State Duke Ji is a good man. Our entire family kowtowed to him…"
“……”
Sun Chuanting was stunned and frowned.
Jiang Feng was lying on a rocking chair with a teacup in one hand."It's nothing. You don't have to be so grateful, just eat.”
"Thank you, thank you, Lord Jiang…"
"Living Bodhisattva…"
The commoners left one after another gratefully.
Jiang Feng waved his hand and spread his hands to the side."Governor, are you still angry with me? Come, sit down."
"Humph!"
Sun Chuanting was simply a tsundere little cutie. He was angry, but he still sat beside him."Jiang Feng, don't be too proud…"
"Reporting to the Duke."
Once again, he was interrupted. Zu Dabi's voice came from not far away. He quickly walked up and bowed,""Two of Li Zicheng's rebel soldiers have arrived and are requesting an audience outside the city!”
"Who are you?"
Sun Chuanting was shocked. Zu Dabi glanced at him."Li Zicheng's right-hand men, Niu Jinxing and Li Yan.”
