The Jinyang army, within the temporary camp.

Li Yuan dared to raise the flag to rebel, in addition to his identity as the head of the northern family, the biggest reliance was on the Eagle Yang of the Six Prefectures in Hedong under his command. Relying on a large amount of money, grain, and grass in Jinyang City, Li Yuan turned the Yingyang soldiers, who were originally on duty for 45 days a year, into standing soldiers, each under the command of military generals, and the drills were sometimes well-trained, and the marching camp had its own rules, and it was arranged in an orderly manner without the main general's labor. However, the soldiers and horses who came to defect from all over the country were mixed. Most of them had never been defrauded by the Judge Advocate General's Office, and when they were in battle, they could have been motivated by blood or wealth. On weekdays, the lawless team is scattered, and there is no military appearance at all. With the increasing number of such soldiers and horses, the originally disciplined Jinyang soldiers and horses were also brought more and more scattered.

With the ability of the Li family's father and son and their subordinates to lead the troops, as long as they have a period of time to be restrained by military orders and then drill battle formations, these bandits can also become qualified soldiers. Even if you can't catch up with the generals of your headquarters, at least you can look like one when you march and camp. Li Yuan contained these rabble, although he had the intention of buying horse bones with a lot of money, and he also thought that it would not be long before these horses could be transformed into qualified combat power, and he thought that the precursor was an excellent candidate to send them to death.

It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, but I didn't expect the Yin Shishi to lose 600,000 people in Chang'an, which caught Li Yuan off guard. Constrained by the current means of herald and the restrictions of laws and regulations, personnel and other restrictions, it is not easy for anyone to cope with such a large scale of people.

Yang Guang can treat the people as pigs and dogs, take their lives seriously, and if he can't manage it, he will kill on a large scale to reduce the burden. Li Yuan is famous for his benevolence, and if he adopts Yang Guang's simple and crude methods, his reputation will be ruined. Competing with the Yang family for the world, there are fewer important chips in hand. No matter how difficult it is, he has to pinch his nose and leave people behind, not only can he not poison the people, but he also has to live comfortably, provide food, and do his best to make the people live comfortably.

These people are no better than officers and soldiers, they have never been trained in battle formations, and even if they want to serve Li Yuan, they don't know how to start. On the contrary, he has to create a lot of trouble every day, just pacifying the people and dealing with chores makes Li Yuan exhausted, how can he still be distracted from other people's training? I had to let these stragglers go down comfortably.

Too large a force is a disaster in itself, and if such a large number reaches Chang'an City, the biggest possibility is that it will not even be able to spread the formation. Therefore, the Jinyang army was forced to go their separate ways, with Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin two brothers leading 10,000 horses as the vanguard to go straight to Chang'an, and the rest of the troops were deployed along the way, and the people were settled in the end, and Li Yuan's pro-unified army sat in town to appease the people.

Since the people were driven out of Chang'an, they have become frightened birds, for fear that Li Yuan will also leave them behind, crying at every turn, and then lying in the rut to block the road. Only when they see the Tang Guogong banner can they feel at ease and not make trouble. What's more, among these hundreds of thousands of people, there are women and children, and many generals and soldiers have their eyes shining when they look at young women. If it weren't for Li Yuan himself, who would be able to suppress this group of fighting men?

In order to prevent accidents, Li Yuan arranged all those newly attached thieves to the front, keeping them away from the people, and also away from his sight. These bandits are unrestrained, and they are becoming more and more slack. The Sui army did not dare to go out of the battle, and the camp was loosely built, fearing that it would collapse as soon as it rushed. Seeing that the sky was finally clear, a few veterans slipped out and chatted against the wall.

"It is said that Tang Guogong is benevolent, and in my opinion, it is commonplace. Let's let go of our free lives, what are you going to do with him? It's not just eating and drinking spicy, not to mention that we are not allowed to touch those little ladies, and we haven't even had to eat for the past few days. The rations are getting smaller and smaller, and I am afraid that people will not starve to death. Where does the strength come from when you are hungry, and how can you fight? ”

"yes. It is said that Jinyang has a mountain of rice and noodles, and it will not be able to eat it in a few lifetimes. The results are all deceptive? If it goes on like this, it will be the same as the days on the mountain. ”

"I don't think it's as good as when I'm in the mountains." The first veteran said, "How can there be so many things when you are in the mountains?" Everyone lives with their heads up, and the picture is to be happy. Who is in charge of heaven and earth? In my opinion, the leader was fooled, so he brought us to live a hard life. ”

Another veteran said, "You can't say that. These hundreds of thousands of mouths are not easy to feed, even if there are really rice mountains and noodles, I am afraid that they will be eaten. As long as Chang'an is opened, it is not a matter of what you want. If you want to get rich and want to eat enough, you should go in early. ”

"Hit? What to fight? Fighting a war hungry is not sending people to death? Haven't you heard? A few days ago, it rained heavily, and the grain road was washed off by the water, and some grain could not be transported. There are so many people who want to eat, I am afraid that in a day or two they will have to run out of food. ”

"Out of food?"

Several soldiers looked at each other, and their faces changed slightly. Since ancient times, it is natural to eat food and be a soldier, if the Lord has no food and grass to distribute, no matter how loyal a soldier is, he will not die for it. What's more, these people are running for fame and fortune, if they really run out of food, who is willing to work for Li Yuan? No matter how prominent his family is, how good his reputation is, and what does it have to do with himself?

A veteran said, "This ...... Not really, right? The Li family has a big business, and they all say that they are rich and noble, so can they not have food for our group of soldiers? ”

Another veteran muttered in a low voice: "I don't care what kind of wealth he has, anyway, it's just a sentence, there is no food to eat, don't want me to ...... desperately"

"The morale of the army has really been dissipated here?" In the military tent, Li Yuan's brows were deeply locked, his face was solemn, and his expression was more serious than when he fought with Yujuluo that day. People all over the world mention Li Yuan, and they know that he is "benevolent" and "dull", regardless of others. In fact, as a male lord who has the heart to dominate the world, how can he really be a pedantic gentleman?

Over the years, he has made friends with families all over the world, and has widely inquired about news in Luoyang and Chang'an, and it is impossible to ignore the internal affairs of the self-army. In the camps of the vassals and horses, there are ears and sentries placed by them to monitor the movements of these soldiers and horses. It is necessary not only to prevent them from fleeing with the team, but also to prevent the Sui army from colluding with each other. All kinds of discussions in the army can't escape his hands and eyes.

However, no matter how clever his methods are, he can't conjure money out of thin air. As a family that started in the military, Li Yuan certainly knew the importance of grain and grass. Food is the guts of the army, if the grain and grass are really cut off, not to mention these vassals, even the elite of Jinyang will still scatter in a hurry.

Since he sent out the army, he has been strictly concerned about the consumption of grain and grass, and has always maintained a stock of grain in his hand, so as not to make the army unable to maintain when the supply of grain and grass is unfavorable. But this sudden hundreds of thousands of mouths ate all the life-saving food he had on hand, and now Li Yuan was indeed exhausted and had no extra food to feed his subordinates.

Although Liu Chen and the others tried their best to get some grain and grass, it was still a drop in the bucket compared to the consumption of nearly one million people. Li Yuan and his advisers have been racking their brains for military rations these days, but no one can think of a way.

Pei Lin said: "There is no food in the army, there is no war, and it is a matter of time before the army's morale fluctuates. Those who make noise can be killed, but military rations do not come out of thin air. According to a certain point of view, the people's rations can only be cut by 30% for the use of the three armies. ”

Li Yuan said: "Nowadays, people have two meals a day, and they can only eat porridge but not eat. If it is cut by another 30%, people will starve to death. ”

Pei Lin said: "It's better to starve them to death than to starve to death the generals." ”

Wen Daya said on the side: "Xuan Gong has to starve the reputation of the lord as well? The thieves are waiting for us to abandon the people, so that the news can be sent to Luoyang and Jiangdu, and it is best to spread it all over the world. What's involved, can't Xuan Gong understand? ”

Pei Lin didn't argue, he actually had the same worries as Wen Daya. They don't care about the lives of these people, but they can't care less about Li Yuan's good reputation. After all, Li Yuan's most powerful weapon to fight the world is not the elite soldiers and strong generals, but the benevolent name admired by the four seas. If the name of benevolence is destroyed, the impact of Li Yuan's seizure of the hegemony of the world is far greater than the life and death of tens of thousands of soldiers. The purpose of the Yin Shishi to use this desperate plan is to destroy the city of Chang'an, and not let Li Yuan achieve great things. As a minister of the Li family, of course, he can't let the Yin Shishi get his wish.

Wen Daya said again: "The name of the lord is spread all over the world, and the world knows that Yang Guang is tyrannical and benevolent, and he is a hero from all over the world who has come to vote. If they lose this name, where will those people go? ”

Li Yuan said in a deep voice: "Yanhong doesn't need to say it, you can rest assured, Li will not abandon the people to slaughter the people no matter how far he goes, if he violates this, heaven and earth will not tolerate it!" ”

"The Lord is serious." Wen Daya hurriedly saluted, and then said: "Now that the peach blossoms are flooding, the Fen water is overflowing, and the grain road is isolated, which is really a natural disaster that cannot be controlled by manpower. The thieves dug the grave first, the sky rained heavily later, and rumors spread in the army, and people were panicked. Chang'an City is high and thick, and it is urgent to go down, if the army is under the strong city, I am afraid that the army's spirit will become more and more scattered, and Yang Xuangan's defeat is imminent. According to a certain opinion, if the troops are withdrawn, the army will turn back to Jinyang, hold Pujindu with elite soldiers, and it will not be too late to attack Chang'an after the peach blossom flood. ”

Pei Lin said: "Absolutely not! Don't miss the opportunity! Now that he has retired from the army, won't he be ashamed of the people of the world? If he wants to attack Chang'an in the future, I'm afraid that it won't be so easy, and the heroes of all parties will also have contempt for me, and I don't know how many variables there are. Don't forget, Pushan Gong is also going to attack Luoyang. If it wins Longwangshu and first gets Luoyang to regain Chang'an, what should it do? ”

"What Xuan Gong said is true, but we can't go against the sky. Now that the grain and grass in the army are about to run out, how can they take Chang'an with this military ration? Moreover, the foundation of our army is not stable. Erlang captured the young king and returned, provoking the Turks, how could this matter be good? I heard someone say that there are soldiers and horses outside Jinyang City, in case the soldiers of the Zhibu Xing come to attack Jinyang, our army will go to have no way back and it will not be a dead end? ”

Several people in the military tent have heard the news outside Jinyang City, but there are not many soldiers and horses and they do not hold banners, I don't know whether it is a Turkic ranger or a straggler herdsman who has lost his way, but Li Yuan and others did not care. But Wen Daya's proposal of this matter can't be regarded as a trivial matter, after all, the whole army and their families are in Jinyang, if the Turks really let the Turks capture Jinyang, these tens of thousands of descendants will collapse if they don't need to fight themselves. Chang'an is related to the success or failure of the hegemony, and Jinyang is related to life and death in the present, no matter how careful you are.

Li Yuan waved his hand and said: "The second duke doesn't have to fight anymore, what the second duke said is reasonable, and it is all for the sake of the Li family's great cause." Since Li is the master of the three armies, he has to think about his subordinates, and he can't let tens of thousands of warriors waste their lives for the sake of the Li family's wealth. What Yan Hong said was quite in line with my liking, and he ordered the three armies to pack their bags and prepare to retreat. And let the Yin thief live a few more days, and it is not too late to attack Chang'an after the water recedes! ”
