Ying Yi had to admit that what Zheng Yunzhi said made sense.

But he said: "However, we don't know whether there are still large troops nearby. If there are, maybe they will make a comeback tomorrow. Huguang soldiers are indeed life-saving straws, but I am bluntly speaking, County Master, I don't trust Huguang soldiers. What kind of person Zuo Liangyu is, County Master should know better than me."

Zheng Yunzhi was silent when she heard this.

Ying Yi could see his entanglement.

Zheng Yunzhi sighed for a long time: "However, Ye County is too important. You cannot lose it!"

Ying Yi said: "The ancients said: If people have lost their land, they will all live. If people have lost their land, they will all live. If people have lost their land, they will all live. The county emperor can read more books than me."

Zheng Yunzhi said: "I don't know the reason, nor am I a person who is ignorant of flexibility. But after all, you don't know that Ye County has the food and supplies needed for the 30,000 army for half a year!"

"Food and grass supplies!"

Ying Yi was stunned and suddenly realized.

I see.

Ying Yi did not expect that in addition to the two million taels of military pay to be transported to Ye County, there were also 30,000 troops of food, grass and supplies, which were also stored here. In this way, the importance of Ye County must not be abandoned.

I heard Zheng Yunzhi say, "This batch of materials has been secretly hoarded since last year. I came here to serve and hoard supplies for the army to guard food and grass. I moved the people away and turned Ye County into an empty city, which was also to weaken the thieves' intention to attack Ye County. I thought it was dark under the light and could hide the thieves, but I didn't expect that the traitor leaked the news of military salary and put Ye County on the fire to roast it. Now I'm asking me to go to a dilemma."

"Once the evacuation of Ye County, a large number of supplies, a total of 30,000 troops with half a year of food and grass will be a total of 200,000 stones. How can I transport them away?! Wouldn't I give them to the thief?!" He was heartbroken.

Ying Yi was silent.

Two hundred thousand stones of grain and a large amount of supplies are too difficult in such a world. If you just give up like this, let alone Zheng Yunzhi, even Ying Yi himself would probably jump off the cliff.

His heart was constantly moving, and he suddenly asked, "I have been walking around the city for a few times, but I have not seen any obvious places to store food and food."

Zheng Yunzhi said: "Food and food are stored in the cellar under the county government. After all, you must avoid the thief and cannot be blatant. Otherwise, if the thief knew that there was a large amount of food and grass in the city, and there was no need for the traitor to leak the news, the thief should have sent troops to attack."

Hearing this, Ying Yi let out a long sigh and smiled, "If this is the case, the county magistrate can rest assured."

Zheng Yunzhi said angrily: "How to teach me to rest assured?"

Ying Yi said: "The county master is in the bureau and has not thought it through for a while. When we evacuate, we may not be giving the food and grass to the thief."

"What do you mean?" Zheng Yunzhi was confused.

Ying Yi smiled and said, "Listen to me. If we set a fire and burn Ye County to clean up when we retreat, what do you think?"

"This..." Zheng Yunzhi's expression moved. After thinking about it carefully, she showed a sudden look and suddenly smiled: "Yes, yes. I was in the bureau and looked too seriously at the food and grass, and I didn't think of this. You are right. If we retreat and set a torch to burn the county town, the thief saw that it was burned to white ground, naturally he would not have thought that there were still 200,000 stones of grain hidden underground."

"That's right." Ying Yi said: "After the bandit retreat, or after taking back Ye County, they will raise food again. In the end, the bandits will not take advantage."

Zheng Yunzhi relaxed suddenly and let out a sigh of relief: "It seems that it was a lucky luck. In order to avoid the thief, I planned to hide things in the cellar. Now I have saved my life, haha... I, Zheng Yunzhi!"

Ying Yi reminded: "I just don't know how many insiders are in the cellar. The leak of military pay has caused such a big disaster. The news of food and food pay must not be leaked."

Zheng Yunzhi waved his hand and said, "Don't worry. The cellar storage is my plan, only limited to Ye County. There are no outsiders who handle it."

The imperial court stored grain in Ye County, and as for how to store it, it was Zheng Yunzhi's business. There was no need to report it. Therefore, it was Zheng Yunzhi's management who was the one who was close to him. No one knew about it except that. Even the person who transported the grain and grass during this process only transported the grain and grass to Ye County secretly. As for hiding it, he didn't know where it was.

He also said: "The people of Ye County are gone, and there is an empty city. Although the people have the habit of storing grain cellars, if the people go, the food will naturally be taken away. When the thief sees the city burning white land, he will no longer have any doubts."

Of course, this is not really foolproof.

Everything has a chance. What if the thief is lucky and suddenly finds out?

But Ying Yi would not say this. Zheng Yunzhi also selectively ignored it. What is there no risk in doing?

Ying Yi said, "Now there are no worries, the county magistrate, please withdraw earlier."

Zheng Yunzhi agreed and said, "Then tonight."

The two discussed this matter before Zheng Yunzhi asked about military pay.

Ying Yi said: "Military pay is now in Xiaowangzhuang." He told him about the events that had been transported along the way: "I saw that there was a change in Ye County, so I dare not transport the military pay, and temporarily transport it to Xiaowangzhuang to hide."

Zheng Yunzhi heard that the military pay was still good, so she felt relaxed: "As long as the military pay was still there, I will feel relieved."

"Military pay and food are there, and it seems that the thieves have exhausted their energy."

He laughed.

Ying Yi shook his head secretly and said nothing.

At midnight, Ying Yi brought a staff of a hundred households to escort Zheng Yunzhi and others' families and some craftsmen to leave Ye County.

Although Ye County is an empty city, there are still some craftsmen. Many of the arms need to be managed by craftsmen, and they are indispensable. In addition to Zheng Yunzhi's family, there are more than 200 people. To retreat tonight, first withdraw those who are not capable of fighting. In case of precautions, Ying Yi personally escorted them. After they were sent to Xiaowangzhuang, they came back to pick up Zheng Yunzhi, and then burned Ye County and left here completely.

During this period, Zheng Yunzhi had to make some illusions in the county to confuse the thieves. For example, pile up the already damaged and irreparable arms in a room, make some food out, and when the fire passes, marks will naturally be left behind. When the thieves see it, they will burn it, and they will not have the idea of ​​searching Ye County in detail.

Also, they will hide the untooked good arms in the cellar and wait for them to get out in the future.

In the darkness, Zheng Yunzhi told his wife and children: "With Ying Baihu escort, there will be no mistakes. If something happens, you just need to be calm."

Although his wives, concubines and children were worried, they had to nod.

Then Zheng Yunzhi nodded to Ying Yi beside him: "I'm going to bother Ying Baihu."

Ying Yi bowed and said, "I have no choice."

"Let's go." Zheng Yunzhi waved her hand.

Ying Yi turned over and said, "The county lord waits for a while, at most I will return."

Zheng Yunzhi smiled and said, "Be careful all the way."

After Ying Yi and his party were immersed in the darkness, Zheng Yunzhi sighed slightly and said to Zheng Wu beside him: "Go and prepare quickly, don't delay."
