"Really? Then I will wait and see. I hope you really won't let me down." Su Yu said meaningfully.
"Of course." The general guarding the city took his deputy general out to inform the people to collect food.
After Su Yu led his troops into the city, the people began to look forward to when they would distribute food, but they didn't expect it to happen so soon.
Despite the general's help, the food was just a drop in the bucket for them. Now that the Jade King has come, they also have food.
As long as we can get through this difficult time, it will be fine.
No matter what others thought, the people were very happy.
After the State of Lu captured the capital, they captured the Emperor and the Crown Prince of Qi alive. The Emperor even died with the Queen, leaving the Crown Prince alone as a prisoner of the State of Lu.

"Your Highness, the battle report from over there has arrived." The general of Lu State hurriedly came over with a battle report.
After reading the battle report, Prince Lu slapped the table beside him hard, his face looking terribly gloomy.
The general next to him was a little surprised to see their prince showing his emotions: "Did something happen to the prince?"
Prince Lu nodded with a gloomy face: "Is there something wrong with the people of Qi?"
"Shanhai City was directly given to Xuan Kingdom by the general defending the city. Su Yu got Shanhai City without losing a single soldier. It will be troublesome for us to attack Xuan Kingdom in the future." Prince Lu said with a cold face.
The general of Lu looked at the prince in shock: "Is it like this again? Didn't you say that general..."
"So what? Everyone knows who to choose. Besides, Su Yu's actions since the attack on Qi were really heartbreaking." He distributed enough food to the people for the period of time before reaching a city.
During this period of time, Xuan Kingdom has probably used up nearly two million kilograms of grain.
Even if there are high-yield grain varieties, things are not done that way.
Even the State of Lu could not make such a large-scale calculation, but Su Yu and the State of Xuan really did it.

"Your Majesty, do we still need to continue?"
"How can we continue? We have been fighting for such a long time. Although the losses are not great, they are definitely not small. How can we fight against a group of well-rested soldiers from Xuan Kingdom? Moreover, my people informed the king that Luo Yan is also with Su Yu."
Luo Yan
This name seems familiar, but I just can't remember it at the moment.
"A man from the Luo family of Qi State developed a very powerful gunpowder. We don't know if he brought it here this time.
Moreover, after fighting for such a long time, our food supplies were almost gone.
Even though their state of Lu was wealthy, it was not to this extent.
"After that, Your Highness, I'm afraid we'll have to appease the people," the general said after a moment's hesitation.
"Calm the people?"
"The people of Qi have run out of food, and the people of Xuan have received so much food. If we do nothing here, I'm afraid the people will rebel directly." They have not yet gained a firm foothold in these cities of Qi. If the people rise up to attack, they may not be able to deal with it.

If they could kill one civilian, could they kill thousands of civilians
If we really do that, these people will probably do anything, which is definitely not a good thing for the State of Lu.
Prince Lu glanced at the people around him and said, "I do want to, but you should know how much food we have."
Of course he knew what to do about this kind of thing, but the food they had was nothing compared to what Su Yu had. Su Yu probably still had several million kilograms of food in his hands, otherwise he would not dare to be so generous.
The general stopped talking immediately. The prince was right. There was really no way to do this.
The general scratched his head in annoyance and felt a little worried. If he didn't help the people, he was afraid that they would revolt. If he helped them, they would have no food.
"Next year should be better, and then we will find an opportunity to attack Xuan Kingdom."
"yes."
The current Xuan Kingdom is a tough nut to crack for them. They can't do anything they want to do. They can only watch Su Yu on the other side of the wall but they can't do anything.
Moreover, they have not yet fully figured out what cards Su Yu has in his hand. The appearance of the crossbow cart and crossbow arrows was already creepy.

What's more, the crossbow can fire twenty rounds in a row.
With a light sigh, he always felt that if he missed this opportunity, it would not be so easy to take over Xuan Kingdom in the future.
The general frowned slightly and looked unhappy.
"Your Majesty..."
"Notify the soldiers to rest and go to the next city."
"yes."
After taking the next city, Lu and Xuan finally became neighbors.
Su Yu was not surprised at all when she heard the news.
Su Yu touched his chin with a thoughtful look on his face. Su Jiu beside him asked, "Xiao Yu, what are you thinking about?"
Su Yu smiled and shook his head: "I didn't think much, I just think this Lu country's military prince is a little interesting."
"And the people in the Qi city they captured can't hold on any longer." Su Yu said with a wicked smile.
Su Jiu looked at Su Yu in surprise, and suddenly thought of something and asked in surprise: "Xiao Yu, you are not planning something again, are you?"
"We are all people from Qi. The people here don't have to worry about food for the time being, while the people from Qi in Lu live a different life. Brother, how long do you think they can last?" Su Yu asked calmly, supporting his chin.
The people nearby looked at each other, and someone said, "Your Majesty, do you mean that Lu might also provide food to the people like us?"
"They do have such an idea, but they don't have the ability to do it." Su Yu said with a laugh.
Su Jiu looked at Su Yu's arrogant look helplessly, and said with a smile: "Xiao Yu, don't be so arrogant, or you will be caught by others later."
"So what even if we capture the people of Lu? I just look down on them. After three or four months of fighting, they don't have much food left. As for distributing it to the people, it's just a casual thought. He doesn't have the ability to do so." Su Yu explained playfully.
The people around looked at each other, and after thinking carefully, they felt that what the prince said seemed to be correct.
It is quite interesting that the people of Lu State really cannot achieve this.
"When the people can't hold on any longer, Your Majesty will probably take action, right? Or simply leave their homes." The place they want to go is probably Xuan Country.
Su Yu touched his chin with his hand, and after thinking for a moment, he spoke: "It's not that simple. Let someone tell them to go to Lu State and take a look."
"Brother Yu, what interesting things have you thought of to talk about?" Luo Yan asked Su Yu expectantly.
"Send someone to tell the people over there that as long as they come to Xuan Country, they will be able to get food, and there will be high-yield grains later. We will also help them build houses here and give them some land."
