Li Guoying rode on a tall red horse, looking at a golden wheat field in front of him, and was very proud.

The timing of this attack on Sichuan was particularly good, and it happened to be the season before the autumn harvest.

If the time is a little earlier, the grain is not yet ripe. If they come late, the grain has already been taken away, and they will not be able to grab a single grain.

Now this time will be good, and the grain can be harvested.

Compared with silver, what the Qing army in Shaanxi needs more now is food.

Guanzhong is thousands of miles away, and the grain harvest has been in short year after year, and in this case, it basically relies on the import of grain from other provinces to continue its life.

Before, it mainly relied on Huguang, but now that Huguang has been captured by the Ming army, Li Guoying has been weaned and can only find another way out.

The best and most direct way is to grab it.

Sichuan is an area controlled by the Ming army in close proximity to Shaanxi, and it is a relatively soft persimmon in the area controlled by the Ming army.

It's the perfect place to start.

Since Li Guoying's purpose is to grab food, he naturally runs away after grabbing it.

He doesn't know how to fight, let alone attack the city.

At most, the idea of hitting the county seat.

These counties are basically rammed earth city walls, and there are no bricks.

The height of the walls was also limited, so it was relatively easy to attack.

Of course, Li Guoying is just watching, and if the momentum is not right, he will run away immediately.

After all, the purpose of attacking the county seat is also to grab grain, because there are a lot of grain reserves in the granary of the county seat.

But Li Guoying will not defend the city, because he knows that it is impossible to defend it.

The Ming army did not allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch.

Li Guoying is very knowledgeable and knowledgeable about current affairs, and it is the best choice to run if you grab it.

When the Qing soldiers saw the golden wheat, their eyes lit up and they were very excited.

They went to harvest the wheat with their knives and put it in the basket behind them.

If you are seen, your jaw will fall, where is this army, it is clearly a group of farmers.

However, the Qing army did not seem to care.

They only care about how much food they can grab, and it is related to whether they can eat enough this year.

Relying on the grain stored in Guanzhong alone will definitely not survive this winter.

Li Guoying was very satisfied with the current situation, and it seemed that the Ming army had no intention of going out of the city to seek war.

The Ming army was afraid of him like a tiger, and it seemed that he only dared to cower in the city.

Naturally, this could not be better.

Li Guoying did not want to go to war at this time.

If he doesn't want to fight, he won't take the initiative to fight. If he wants to take the initiative, he will fight.

"Your Excellency Governor, this Boryeong Mansion is so rich, let alone Chengdu Mansion. In the humble opinion of our subordinates, it is better for us to go directly to rob Chengdu Mansion after robbing Baoning. ”

Feng Enguang's face was full of pride.

Things went much smoother than they expected, and after grabbing this ticket at this speed, not only will there be enough food for this year, but the food for the first half of next year will be gone.

Now the imperial court is too busy to take care of itself, and it has no energy to pay attention to remote places like Shaanxi.

They can only rely on themselves, and they cannot pin their fantasies on the imperial court.

"Well, Chengdu is definitely going to be robbed. However, the garrison in Chengdu must have been much larger than that of Boryeong. If we rush forward, will it arouse the vigilance of Feng Shuangli and Na Bai Wenxuan and take the initiative to go out of the city to seek war? ”

These two people are no better than the guards of Boryeong Mansion, and they are the leading figures in the Ming army.

If the two sides really fought in the field, Li Guoying had no certainty of victory.

But the temptation of Chengdu is really great.

It's like a roasted golden roast chicken, which makes people salivate.

"They shouldn't dare to be so bold, right? After all, the importance of Chengdu Prefecture is far greater than that of other prefectures and counties, so they dare to guarantee that they will be able to win the battle when they go out of the city to seek war? If you can't win, then Chengdu will be in danger. ”

Feng Enguang's analysis is the head? It's not unreasonable to think about it.

It depends on whether you are brave enough to gamble.

The so-called support the bold, starve the cowardly.

Li Guoying really wants to go to Chengdu? It's a temptation that people can't resist.

"Finished harvesting food today? Let's go to Chengdu. ”

In the end, Li Guoying still made up his mind.

It's all here? If you don't go to Chengdu, I'm really sorry for my hard work.

...

...

"The military master is good, the military master is good. These are my family's last rations. If you snatch it, you really can't open the pot. ”

A woman dragging a shriveled bag of grain and not letting go? A Qing soldier tugged the other side.

He glared at the woman and said, "Shameless things?" What's the use of all this. If you don't take your food, you'll starve. Lao Tzu doesn't care if you die or not. ”

"Get out of the way, or you're welcome."

The Qing soldier said in a threatening voice.

"Master Jun, this food is our life-saving food."

The woman couldn't cry? Heartbreakingly shouted.

"Dog thing!"

The Qing soldier roared impatiently? He kicked at the woman.

The woman lost her balance in an instant? He fell backwards.

Isn't it true that there's a rock behind her? When I fell my head, I hit the rock.

The woman fainted instantly? Blood poured out of the back of the head.

Qing Bing sneered? Then he turned and left with the sack.

The village, like all nearby villages, was sacked by the Qing soldiers.

The Qing soldiers were like locusts, gnawing on them wherever they went.

"Iniquity, what a iniquity."

An old man sat on the grinding plate at the entrance of the village, looked at the Qing soldiers who were leaving, and cursed: "People are watching the sky, God will have to accept you sooner or later!" ”

...

...

In the city of Boryeong? The guard general Ma Zhong called out the plan.

At first, he thought that the Qing army was coming to Boryeong City? So he ordered the withdrawal of all the garrisons in the nearby forts? Prepare to defend Boryeong.

But now it seems that the Qing army is completely a false shot.

From the very beginning, Li Guoying, a dog thief, did not want to attack Boryeong City.

Li Guoying took advantage of the time when the Ming army was defending Baoning to grab grain? Then pat your ass and walk away.

Ma Zhongzhi was full of remorse.

Li Guoying snatched up the grain in Boryeong, what did the local people eat?

I can only transfer grain from Chengdu.

If this news reaches Chengdu, what will the two princes think? Will he be cured of a great sin of fear of the enemy?

Ma Zhong blindly sought stability, but he didn't expect to make a mistake.

No, can't you wait here to die? He must atone for his sins!

Ma Zhong immediately wrote a personal letter to carefully explain the situation of the Qing army's entry into the city, and specially emphasized in the letter that the purpose of the Qing army was to seize grain and not to attack the city, and asked Feng Shuangli and Bai Wenxuan to prepare in advance.

"Send this letter to Chengdu immediately. Remember to be sure to get ahead of the Tartar and hand it over to the two princes. ”

It is a matter of his family's life, and Ma Zhong does not dare to be careless at all.
