The rare calm of the night, Qin Jin finally couldn't stand it, his head was tilted on the pile of official documents, and he fell asleep deeply, a scribe walked in with a thick stack of documents, saw the situation in front of him, and heard a burst of snoring, so he tiptoed out. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The drum rumbled suddenly, and Qin Jin was awakened by a spirit, and wanted to stand up, but he couldn't get up for a while because his legs were paralyzed.

At this time, Guo Ziyi rushed in with a roar.

"The traitor went crazy and attacked the city overnight, and was almost captured, but fortunately the first wave of raids was suppressed. ”

Hearing that it was the rebels attacking the city at night, Qin Jin's mind calmed down, Sun Xiaozhe was so unusual, there must be a reason for it, and it is very likely that he was eager to achieve results in the siege of Chang'an. However, the city wall of Chang'an is tall, and the scale is far from being compared with the state and county administrations, as long as it is not for the generals who defend the city to make a faint move or simply give up, there is absolutely no problem in guarding it for three and a half years.

After a while, Qin Jin felt that the tingling in his legs gradually subsided, so he stood up and moved his hands and feet.

"Sun Xiaozhe jumped over the wall in a hurry, and there is a chance that the night attack on the city will fail, he won't know this truth, but he wants to be like this, why do you say this?"

Guo Ziyi's face was serious, and she thought for a while before saying:

"We have to wait until the specific news is confirmed before we can make a final assertion, otherwise, in case ......"

Of course, Guo Ziyi's caution was absolutely not wrong, so Qin Jin did not argue with him, and turned the topic to the rebels who attacked the city tonight. I asked carefully about the size and combat effectiveness of the rebels, and the answers I got were about the same as expected, and they were indeed the elite of the army.

This kind of errand of night raids can only be done by the elite of the army, and the efficiency of those daytime days is extremely low, if it is placed in the night action, I am afraid that it will be scattered in a hurry while the dark sky is over, and it will be difficult for the overseer team to restrain it at that time.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and the scribe who couldn't bear to disturb Qin Jin's sleep walked in with a thick official document.

"Doctor, the official documents and military newspapers delivered an hour ago, I couldn't bear to disturb the doctor when I saw that it was rare for the doctor to sleep for a while. ”

Hearing the word military report, Qin Jin frowned slightly, wanted to scold, and softened his tone and said:

"In the future, if there is a military report, no matter how urgent it is, no matter what I am doing, I will send it as soon as possible. ”

"Yes, humble, remember!"

The scribe placed a thick stack of official documents on the desk and turned to retreat.

Guo Ziyi said with a smile:

"The scribe is also for the doctor, who has not closed his eyes for days and nights, and has slept enough to recuperate his spirits before he can preside over the defense. Besides, those military newspapers are obviously not urgent deliveries, so why bother to discount his good intentions?"

Qin Jin said seriously:

"Of course, I know that the scribe is well-intentioned, but the Shenwu Army has always taken strict military discipline as the guarantee of combat effectiveness, and these people who are accommodating and careless will become an anthill that can break the embankment, so they have to be so harsh. ”

This answer was much more than Guo Ziyi expected, he had already heard that the military discipline in the Shenwu Army was strict, and he had already felt this from these private training operations, but he didn't expect Qin Jin's requirements for his subordinates to be so strict, and he didn't even talk about half of his feelings. In this way, it is no wonder that the Shenwu Army was able to annihilate tens of thousands of elites of Cai Xide's department in Hedong Province, breaking the myth of the invincibility of the rebel tiger and wolf in one fell swoop.

The two of them had a sentence to talk about, Qin Jin had already opened the letter placed on the top, opened the oiled paper cover without handwriting, and a line of words was revealed.

"It's Tongguan, Pei Jing!"

Pulling out the letterhead in three or two clicks, and scanning it at a glance, Qin Jin couldn't help but pat it on the desk.

"What Pei Jing said, Tanma found out in Feng Yi Baishui that the fire burned for seven days and seven nights, although the inside story is not yet clear, General Guo guessed, what can burn for seven days and nights without extinguishing?"

Guo Ziyi has been in Shuofang for many years, and naturally knows the topography from the Hetao to Guanzhong Weishui, and the northern part of Fengyi County is bounded by Beiluoshui, which runs through the north and south, and is a continuous barren hill to the west, and a slightly dense woodland to the north, which extends to the ancient fortress of Lishi by the Yellow River.

Therefore, the answer to what the fire burning thirty miles west of Whitewater City is already coming out.

"Military rations!"

Guo Ziyi spit out two words word by word, which coincided with Qin Jin's judgment.

At the same time, the eyes of the two people swept to the stack of military newspapers that had not yet been opened.

Qin Jin was even a little impatient, and looked at the rest of the military reports one by one. It's just a pity that most of them are about how many rebels were found outside the city, and how many counties the rebels swept over. Just when Qin Jin was gradually disappointed, after the waterproof cover of a military newspaper was opened, Feng Yijun's three words jumped into his eyes, and he only felt that his hands were trembling.

"That's it!"

I whispered excitedly, and I dismantled it in three or two clicks, and then pulled it out and read it urgently, and after a while, I got up excitedly.

"Du Fu and Yang Xingben burned five million stone military rations in the same official warehouse, Sun Xiaozhe did return empty-handed, and the food in his army was afraid that it would not last for half a month!"

Hearing this, Guo Ziyi, who has always been calm, trembled with excitement.

"In this case, the last general is at ease, we only need to drag on for ten days and a half months, and we can watch the traitor collapse on its own!"

Qin Jin came to the door, opened the door, and the cold air poured in with snow particles, and his spirit was suddenly lifted.

For this moment, he was anxious, he had never been so tormented for many years, but fortunately, God had never let down his hard work, and he always taught good things and grinding.

"In addition to waiting, does the general have another way to destroy Sun Xiaozhe?"

Guo Ziyi looked at Qin Jin with some puzzlement, destroying the enemy army without a fight, I'm afraid there is no more clever way than this, but looking at what he meant, it seems that he has other ideas.

The last general did not understand the meaning of the doctor's words. ”

Qin Jin Dao:

"Sun Xiaozhe's command is mostly elite people who dare to fight, if it can be used by me, in the future, to calm the chaos in the world, wouldn't it also have an extra layer of help?"

Hearing this, Guo Ziyi was stunned for a moment, and he didn't expect that Qin Jin had already begun to think about the arrangement of going out of the pass to calm the world at this time, but he was a little unimpressed with his thoughts, so he said bluntly:

"I'm afraid this plan is inappropriate, Sun Xiaozhe's army is repeated, if he is recruited back to the army indiscriminately, I am afraid that it will become a trouble in the future. ”

Qin Jin knew that Guo Ziyi had always acted cautiously, and knew that he was afraid of extraneous branches, so he said:

"For example, a soldier is like a torrent of water. The general is the embankment that binds the water. It is not the water itself that flows where the water goes, but the constraints of the dikes, as long as the dikes are built high enough and strong enough, the great water that is a disaster can also become the source of good harvest for irrigating the fertile land. ”

Guo Ziyi groaned again, during this period of contact with Qin Jin, although he was easy-going on the surface and seemed to be able to accept anyone's opinion with an open mind, he was extremely conceited in his bones, as long as the opinions he made were almost impossible to change.

He knew that it would be difficult for him to convince Qin Jin of such a seemingly rash risky move, so he could only nod his head in agreement, after all, that remark was also reasonable and reasonable.

"Report! The rebels have withdrawn!"

Guo Ziyi and Qin Jin were both shocked, from the beginning of the attack on the city to now, it has been carried out for less than half an hour, is it just to go to the city and drop hundreds or thousands of corpses?

For a while, Qin Jin was a little confused, Sun Xiaozhe really doesn't like to play cards according to common sense, but he won't be so arbitrary, right?

"Let's go, go to the city walls. ”

Qin Jin and Guo Ziyi went to inspect several city gates where the battle took place, and after some careful inquiry, they found that the battle was not fierce, and even the rebels did not have many corpses left, and they came and went quickly, as if they had been predetermined a long time ago.

"Send out the scouts to find out what the rebels are doing again!"

At this time, although the sky was still dark, it was close to dawn, and the sound of a rooster crowing could be heard in the distance.

It wasn't until the sky turned white that the scouts returned to the city, saying that they had not noticed any unusual behavior of the rebels, and they completely returned to the camp after retreating from the siege.

"Is this strange? Could it be that Sun Xiaozhe has lost his mind and gone crazy and risked hundreds of lives just to toss us?"

Guo Ziyi muttered to herself in confusion.

A detective suddenly seemed to remember something, and patted his head and said:

"If there is an anomaly, there is, but not on the rebels. ”

Guo Ziyi immediately asked:

"Where?"

The tanma hesitated a little and said:

"Actually, it's the rebels too, the rebels who are dead. In the past, they had allowed the corpses of their comrades to pile up outside the city, covered by heavy snow, and somehow dug up most of them last night......"

A thought suddenly flashed in front of Qin Jin's eyes, and he shuddered.

At the same time, Guo Ziyi also looked at Qin Jin and seemed to think of something with him.

"Human breast!"

During the Warring States Period, the Qin and Jin dynasties besieged the Zhao army in Changping, and after the Zhao army ran out of food, it actually fed on the corpses of the people in the city and the war dead. Since then, in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, as well as during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, there have been many horrific tragedies of using human flesh as military food.

Now, Sun Xiaozhe is secretly smuggling all the corpses back, could it be just to bury them so that his dead comrades can have a place to live? Of course it is impossible, the only possibility is that he is going to dismantle the corpses he has transported back into eight pieces and distribute them to the officers and soldiers under his command as military rations.

"How is such an atrocity different from a beast?"

Guo Ziyi actually scolded calmly.

Qin Jin said in a low voice:

"It's reasonable to eat the dead, I'm just afraid of them ......"

"Doctor's meaning, can they still eat living people?"

Guo Ziyi asked rhetorically, and Qin Jin asked back.

"The dead can eat, but the living can't?"

After all, it is a risk to go down to Chang'an City to dig up the corpses, and the people of Guanzhong have not escaped after all, as long as they search a little, they can gather tens of thousands of people......
