After the weakening of the barriers of the mountains, the cold snap that went south outside the Saiwai reached the realm of Shanyang, and it was already a little better.

At least if you walk in the wilderness and wear enough clothes, you will have a good chance of eating your stomach and not freezing to death overnight.

But the Sanggan River is still frostbitten through the bottom, and outside Shanyang City, it is white.

The road is difficult to navigate because of heavy snowfall. The frozen Sanggan River has become a natural pathway. At this moment, a convoy of chariots and horses is constantly passing on the Sanggan River.

These convoys, all composed of Ma Yi Eagle Soldiers, loaded with food and looted utensils, rushed to Shanyang City in an endless stream.

Wang Rengong gave an order, and Ma Yi Ying raised his troops to collect the grain of the four towns for the winter, and transported it to various cities for storage, so as to implement this policy of clearing the wilderness. Especially to transport to Shanyang.

As for the people of the four fields of Mayi County, Wang Rengong asked them to live according to the outline of the city. When the time comes, the county government will naturally give them grain for the winter.

That being said, the people of Mayi had neither a military organization nor an eagle army to guide and protect the passage along the way. Let the people rush to the cities at home, where can the people who lack organization and training have this ability?

Even if they arrived, that is, outside the city, there was no place to live, set up a few porridge shacks, and give up a little porridge every day. After a few days, apart from a large number of people dying in the city, what good results can there be?

Fortunately, most of the soldiers raised by the Mayi Eagle were local soldiers, although they were strictly ordered by Wang Rengong to implement this policy of clearing the wilderness, but they were more or less merciful, leaving a little ration for the people of the four townships of Mayi, so that they could have a hope of escaping the famine to the east of the river. There was no burning and looting, but most of the grain was taken.

After all, the Mayi Eagle Soldiers are also a formed armed group that needs to survive and develop on its own. At this time, it was impossible to let Ma Yi Ying raise troops to disobey the order on a large scale, not to implement Wang Rengong's policy of strengthening the wall and clearing the wilderness, but only to protect the people of the county.

Even if the subordinates showed mercy, this policy of clearing the wilderness was implemented later, with the sporadic resistance of the people, the means became more and more ruthless, and every time the grain collection team swept back in a circle, dozens of lives were killed. Occasionally, there was a fire in Sixiang, but it was the Ma Yi Ying soldiers who had sent away their temperament and let go of the burning of the village.

The troubled times are like this, the later they go, the harder the hearts of the people become, and the more miserable the people's suffering!

Wang Rengong's response strategy was not only to clear the wilderness, but also to push the defense line, especially the defense line of Shanyang City, outward, especially the passage of the Sanggan River Valley.

It turns out that in Mayi County, the fortress is just a land in the clouds. There was a complete and far-reaching line of defense against the Turks. When Wang Rengong wanted to deal with Liu Wuzhou, he did not operate any defensive line in the hinterland of Mayi County, and fought with the idea of launching a joint field battle with superior forces.

Now that Xu Le Shenwu is making such a fuss, Wang Rengong does not dare to fight in the field for the time being, so he can only hurry up and manage the defense line.

Along the mountains and hills on both sides of the Sanggan River Valley, a military fortress was built to win enough depth for Shanyang City. The idea is that if Liu Wuzhou raises troops to go south, one by one the military villages will gnaw over like this, and when they climb to the foot of Shanyang City, the food should be consumed. At that time, it was a situation of victory without a fight.

It turned out that the Ma Yi Ying Yang soldiers, who were stationed near the left side of Shanyang City, drove out in a group, and together with the people, they built a military fortress in winter. Stationed down, waiting for Liu Wuzhou to march south.

Chen Xian has always had a bad temper and hard temper, so it was naturally impossible for him to stay in Shanyang City to enjoy happiness, so he drove Shangguan out and stationed in a newly built military fortress by the Sanggan River.

At this time, he stood on top of the walled wall with a gloomy face, watching the procession of chariots and horses passing through the river valley. The two eyebrows are tightly twisted together, and it seems that they will burst out at any moment.

More than a dozen of his subordinates gathered around him, their sleeves caged and their necks hunched to look at everything in front of them. A fire chief smacked his lips: "This time, it can be regarded as merciful." Looking at this car, there are only two or three hundred stones of grain, leaving three or four percent. ”

Another subordinate sneered: "A person in his early thirties, in the big war last year, he chose a young lady who fled, and finally became a parent, it is said that he is pregnant, of course he wants to cultivate Yin Gong for his descendants." ”

Someone scolded: "It's good to become a tumor, Zhao Cripple is kind and kind on weekdays, but he is ruthless!" A village was burned, and the convoy returned, except that the food was full. And the snatched little lady! It's also that we haven't been stationed here, if we see it, we will definitely go down and join them! ”

Someone sighed and shook his head: "People's hearts are broken, they are all from the villagers, why bother to make such a fuss?" ”

An old man with gray eyebrows sneered: "You have come here in peacetime, and you have not experienced the suffering of troubled times!" They all think about their own families to survive, and the people above think about their own wealth, where can they take care of their hometown? A good person will become a beast. How many years has the mother been safe, and now it's chaotic again! ”

In the end, there was someone mysteriously spreading gossip: "It is said that the Kaiyang soldiers have been transferred, and now they have entered Shanyang City." ”

At the moment, some people scoffed: "What nonsense? The Kaiyang soldiers went north, and they didn't guard against Tang Guogong in Hedong? We, the county duke, have always regarded the Duke of Tang as a great enemy! ”

The man's face was red: "Let's go to the city to receive grain and straw, and see the banner of the Kaiyang soldiers with our own eyes!" There are also relatives in our family, and they said a few words when they met, can this be fake? Relatives and let's say, the county prince invited Hedong soldiers, stationed in Kaiyang, to support the county prince, now it is Ma Yi and Hedong to join forces, first clean up Liu Ying in the clouds! ”

Everyone was speechless for a while, and Wang Rengong's tricks were all vicious. Internally, he did not hesitate to brutalize the people of Mayi, and externally, he led Hedong soldiers into the county, and he already regarded Liu Wuzhou as a great enemy of life and death, completely disregarding face.

But this method is forced step by step, coupled with Liu Wuzhou's weakness of lack of food, it can really force Liu Wuzhou to the brink!

Stabilize the fence and wait for the enemy to collapse by himself.

As long as it is yourself who stands in the end and wins, even if you drag the whole of Mayi County into hell!

The bearded and white veteran muttered to himself: "First the Mayi soldiers, the Hedong soldiers, and the Hengan soldiers fought the Turks together, and then the Mayi soldiers and the Hedong soldiers fought the Heng'an soldiers together, and then maybe the Mayi soldiers fought the Hedong soldiers, and I don't know what other soldiers will fight each other in the future...... Let's fight, let's fight, it's only been stable for a few years? That's the way of the world! ”

Suddenly, the knife flashed, but it was Chen Xi who pulled out the waist knife and slashed it on the fence!

In the muffled sound, the straight knife penetrated into the wood very deeply, and the sawdust flew sideways.

Chen Xi's eyes were blood-red: "This is the way to enter the mother's world!" No one can turn this world upside down! ”

Everyone was about to persuade Chen Xi, but Chen Xi had already opened his voice and shouted to Peking University.

"Liu Wuzhou, it's a hero, you just come out of the clouds as soon as possible, and you can decide the winner as soon as possible!"
