I am a corrupt official, but they say I am a loyal minister!

Next, the ice disaster continued, and the weather was freezing.

The entire country of the Dawu Dynasty was able to cope with the ice disaster, so the situation was always under control, while other countries gradually collapsed.

The number of people affected by the disaster is increasing. Even though the government is now doing its best to provide disaster relief, due to the ice and snow weather, it is difficult to transport various resources. It is overwhelmed and unable to do anything. It can only watch the victims of the disaster in their country die silently.

The resulting social unrest is also incapable of being resolved.

It can only start to mess up.

But at this time, something happened in the borderland.

Hulao Pass, which is the gateway from Dawu to Daxia, is heavily guarded all year round.

Before the beginning of the war, Lin Beifan led an army of hundreds of thousands, defeated Daxia's 800,000 army, and captured Daxia's prince Xia Qiong, thus starting his legendary life as a military god.

But at this time, the place was also covered in ice and snow, with white snow and strong winds.

Although it was freezing cold, the soldiers still braved the severe cold and held on, but they were shivering from the cold and their bodies were covered with snow.

Seeing that the general was not there, the two soldiers who were close to each other were shaking their bodies and discussing in a low voice.

"What a damn weather! I have lived for more than 20 years, and this year is the coldest!"

"is not that right? Even though I was wearing such a thick cotton-padded jacket, I still couldn’t bear it, it was so damn cold! Just bear with it a little longer, it will be time to change your shift after one more incense stick, and you can go back inside to keep warm!"

"Fortunately, the marshal made preparations and mobilized a large number of charcoal fires and cotton-padded jackets, otherwise we would all have frozen to death!"

"The marshal is indeed wise! Before the military disaster came, we had already made full preparations. We built a large number of shelters across the country and provided central heating so that my mother and children could have a place to go! Otherwise, I can’t stay any longer now!"

"Yes, Marshal is wise! We in Dawu have made so many preparations, but we still find it difficult. It is even more difficult for other countries. Many people may die this winter!"

"Forget it, this is not something we should care about, just do our own thing!"

"That's true!"

……

Just then, they noticed dozens of figures appearing on the snow in the distance.

"Look, are there Daxia's soldiers and horses over there?"

"It’s too far away to see clearly, but it’s very possible! Otherwise, who would come here with nothing to do? You actually have to fight in such cold weather. Is there something wrong with your brain?"

"Report immediately and prepare for battle!"

The enemy situation was reported immediately, and all the soldiers in Hulao Pass put on their armor and picked up their weapons.

Groups of soldiers ran to Hulao Pass, their bows and arrows fully loaded.

A military general shouted loudly:" People in front, listen, Hulao Pass is an important military area and no one is allowed to approach it! If you continue to move forward, it will be regarded as a provocation, and I, the general, will not be polite!"

The dozens of people approaching suddenly panicked, waving their hands and shouting loudly

"Don't shoot! We are just ordinary people!"

"The charcoal fire in our house has been burned out, and there are not enough quilts. The court doesn't care about us, so we can only come here to ask for help!"

"I heard that you have built many shelters and central heating, so let us go in and spend the winter!"

"Okay, okay, give us a way to survive!"

"We really don’t want to die!"

……

The general's eyes narrowed:"Don't shoot the arrow yet!"

At this time, the group of people finally approached Hulao Pass. They were sallow and thin, and their ears were frostbitten. They were huddled in thick cotton clothes and shivering, their eyes were hesitant and frightened. A glimmer of hope, a very pitiful look.

They do look like ordinary people who pose no threat.

They are all soldiers who protect their homeland and their country. They are hot-blooded good men. They can even risk their lives when facing the enemy, but they cannot attack the common people, even the common people of the enemy country.

The general of Dawu shouted condescendingly:"For your ignorance's sake, I, general, can forget the blame and retreat quickly!"

These refugees from Daxia became excited and begged.

"We can't retreat. If we retreat, we will die!"

"We really can't survive anymore, that's why we come here. I hope you are doing well!"

"Please, open the door and let us in!"

"I really don't want to die!"

……

Looks very pitiful

"this……"The generals at Hulao Pass hesitated.

Their heating resources are also very tight, and they have to save their own money. What if they come in and the resources are not enough?

Moreover, if there are some spies among these people, who will be responsible if something goes wrong?

It will kill your own soldiers and civilians!

No one can bear this responsibility!

However, it was unbearable to see them freezing to death outside!

In the end, it was General Zhao, the commander-in-chief of Hulao Pass, who made the decision. He said with a heart of stone:"You go! We are soldiers of Dawu, and you are the people of Daxia. We have no obligation to protect you! Your life and death, It has nothing to do with us! I advise you to retreat quickly, the city gate will never be opened!"

"No, please!"

"You will really die if you go back!"

"Give us a way to survive!"

……

The people of Daxia fell to their knees one after another.

The surrounding generals opened their mouths:"General……"

General Zhao waved his hand and said with a serious face:"You don't need to say more, I am responsible for the 200,000 soldiers in Hulao Pass and the 200,000 people living here!"

Finally, these Daxia refugees shouted His voice was hoarse and he couldn't call General Zhao for his hard-heartedness, so he had no choice but to leave reluctantly.

Some people fell on the road and never got up.

On the second day, some more people came, begging and wanting to go in for the winter.

However, General Zhao disagreed, and they had no choice but to go back with difficulty, and there were several more corpses on the road.

And some froze to death directly in front of Hulao Pass.

He died in front of the great warriors, his face full of despair.

On the third day, another group of refugees arrived.

General Zhao still disagreed. It would not be easy even if they cried out their throats, cried all their tears, and bruised their knees.

In the end, many people froze to death in Hulao Pass.

Day 4, Day 5...

There are more and more refugees, wanting to go into the city to stay warm.

However, General Zhao still disagreed.

As a result, more and more corpses appeared in front of Hulao Pass. They turned into ice sculptures with different forms of death.

But without exception, they all showed despair.

This scene continues to impact the hearts of the great warriors.

"General, why don't you let them in?"

"They are all unarmed people who have gone through a lot of hardships to get here and just want to survive!"

"We have so many resources, we can squeeze some out for them!"

"General, I really can't stand it anymore. I have nightmares every night!"

……

"You are heartbroken, but I am not heartbroken? General Zhao sighed deeply:"I never wanted to open the door and let them in, but our responsibility is that we can't do this!""

"But the general……"

General Zhao waved his hand and said feebly:"It's better to report this matter to the court and let the court decide!"

So, an urgent military report was quickly passed to the court.

At the same time, the same information was quickly gathered from various fortresses on the border and fell into Lin Beifan's hands.

Lin Beifan understood their difficulties very well, and he must not open the door where his duties were. But if he didn't open the door, he could only watch them freeze to death outside, with a guilty conscience.

Therefore, it can only be decided by him

"well! Is there a way to have both peace and security in this world? Lin Beifan sighed

"Dear, why are you sighing? Have you encountered any problems?"The empress walked in slowly.

Lin Beifan stood up quickly:"Your Majesty, why are you here? It's cold outside, and you're not in good health yet, so you'll catch the cold easily! The empress smiled and said:"I have been lying in bed these days. My bones are stiff and I am very uncomfortable. So I came out and walked around to relax!" Don't worry, Aiqing, I'm fine!"

"Your Majesty, you should pay more attention to your health!" Lin Beifan advised.

The empress slowly walked to Lin Beifan's case, looked at the pile of memorials, opened one at random, and smiled while reading:"Ai Qing, have you encountered any difficulties? Tell me!"

"We did encounter some problems! Lin Beifan reported the situation.

The empress nodded after hearing this:"It's really embarrassing. It's wrong to open the door, and it's wrong not to open the door!" I have been in power for many years and have often encountered these two dilemmas! Dear, what's your opinion?"

"Weichen means……"

Lin Beifan glanced at the empress:"We will act according to our ability and work together in the same boat! If there is still some spare capacity at each border, we can open the door and let some refugees from other countries come in to spend the winter! If there is no spare capacity, we must still protect our soldiers and people first!""

"What if we have good intentions, but something like the farmer and the snake happens?"The Empress asked.

Lin Beifan's eyes sharpened:"Then fight! Hit him hard! After the ice disaster is over, I will lead a large army to their capital and ask for an explanation from their emperor!"

"Dear, do what you think is right, I will fully support you!"The empress said loudly

"Thank you for your understanding and support!"

After chatting for a while, the empress went back to rest.

Lin Beifan spread his orders to all the border passes.

Hulao Pass quickly received a reply from the court.

"What did the court say?

General Zhao took the military order and said excitedly:"This is the marshal's order!" He said that we should do our best to protect the soldiers and people of our country! If you still have enough energy, you can let some people from other countries come in to spend the winter! But be on guard and don't cause chaos!"

"So, the court agreed? Very good!"The soldiers were a little excited.

"Don't rush to be happy yet? I ask you, how many more people can our shelter accommodate? General Zhao asked

"If you squeeze it together, it can accommodate about a thousand people!"

"Okay, then open the door! After verifying their identities, let them in!"

"Yes, General!"

So the city gates were opened wide, and the people affected by the disaster in other countries were let in and lived in Dawu's shelter.

The people affected by the disaster in other countries were overjoyed.

"Thank you Dawu for giving us a way to survive!"

"We will definitely abide by the rules and will never mess around!"

"Thanks! thank you all!"

……

Although this winter is still cold, it is a little warmer.
