Inside Xingyang City, with Zhang Liang's order, chaos suddenly began in the city. Everywhere are the Yellow Turban soldiers under Zhang Liang, under the leadership of generals at all levels, as long as it is a wealthy family, they will directly break in. Robbing, raping, and killing the entire Xingyang City were all disorderly at this moment. There were cries everywhere. There were cries of begging for mercy everywhere.

It's a pity that the hard-hearted Yellow Turban sergeant is indifferent to all that is happening in front of him, and sometimes he will take the opportunity to step forward to participate in one or two.

As for the few wealthy families with names and surnames that were originally the only remaining fruits in Xingyang City, they were the key targets of the Yellow Turban Army, and the Yellow Turban Army attached great importance to several families and mobilized a large team of people to go to these families, in addition to collecting food, they were also responsible for the task of finding secret passages.

It's a pity that the Yellow Turban Army didn't find a secret passage in several houses, and even the food collected was not very much, which was far from meeting the original expectations of the Yellow Turban Army.

Zhang Rongfa looked at the data collected from all parties, and the more he looked at it, the more bitter he became. How to order food, if the 50,000 people under the Yellow Turban Army are allowed to eat, they may be eaten in ten days at most, and even if the supply is halved now, the army of 50,000 people can only eat for twenty days at most.

And now Zhang Liang is still conscripting. It is conceivable that the food shortage will become larger and wider in the future. Zhang Rongfa had the heart to suggest that Zhang Liang stop conscription, but he didn't dare to say this.

Zhang Liang, who has always believed that numbers are king, if he heard what he said, then Zhang Liang would probably kill him immediately.

There was no way, Zhang Rongfa could only come to report to Zhang Liang with the data in his hand with a bitter face.

At this time, Zhang Liang had just lost his breath, but with the arrival of Zhang Rongfa, looking at the data brought by Zhang Rongfa, Zhang Liang directly exploded again.

Zhang Liang stood on the high platform, holding the data sheet that Zhang Rongfa had just handed over, looked at Zhang Rongfa in the audience and roared: What's going on, how can there be only a little bit of food for so many wealthy families? Where did the rest of the grain go.

Zhang Rongfa, who was in the audience, looked at Zhang Liang on the high platform, and said with a bitter face: General, in order to protect themselves, these families have transported all the grain to other places. They are afraid that if they have food in their hands, they will attract the prying eyes of my army of yellow turbans. So as soon as they took refuge in us, they organized their men to transport all the grain. As for where the grain is, I have already interrogated it, and they have also told me where the grain is hidden, but the places where they store the grain are all outside the city, and there is now a large army of the imperial court outside the city, and we can no longer get this part of the grain.

"What to do, General?" After Zhang Rongfa finished speaking, he raised his head and looked at Zhang Liang expectantly.

As soon as Zhang Liang heard Zhang Rongfa's question, he exploded directly, looked at Zhang Rongfa and scolded: I can know what to do, the food in the city can only be used by the army for more than 20 days, and we can't get the food outside the city. Now you're telling me what to do? I listen to you.

As soon as Zhang Rongfa heard Zhang Liang's words, he lowered his head again. Just kidding, if he knew what to do, he wouldn't have asked Zhang Liang what to do.

Zhang Rongfa cautiously looked up at Zhang Liang, thought about it, and finally told Zhang Liang what he thought in his heart.

He looked at Zhang Liang and said cautiously: General, can we stop recruiting troops. Our current situation is really not suitable for us to continue to recruit new troops.

As soon as Zhang Liang heard Zhang Rongfa's words, he looked at Zhang Rongfa in the audience with an angry face and said: Stop recruiting. Do you know how many soldiers were lost in the battle just now? Yes? There are more than 7,000 people, plus the place where the grain and grass are stored, and the soldiers who escaped, a whole 10,000 people are gone, you know? After stopping the conscription, after stopping the conscription, the Han army came, what can we do to resist them, especially which Lu Bu, if he comes, what will we do? Are you on? After Zhang Liang finished speaking, he deliberately looked at Zhang Rongfa's reaction.

Zhang Rongfa in the audience not only shrank his head when he heard that he was asked to face Lu Bu. A flash of fear flashed across his face. Let him face Lu Bu, doesn't that make him go to death?

Zhang Liang on the stage looked at Zhang Rongfa, who was shrinking there, and cursed in a low voice. Gritting his teeth, he looked at Zhang Rongfa, and ordered viciously: Notify the people in the city. My Yellow Turban Army is in trouble right now and needs their help. Let them all give their rations, and I will pay them back twice as much in the future.

Offstage, Zhang Rongfa listened to Zhang Liang's order, and directly went stupid, asking the people to donate food, this idea, as long as you think about it, you know that it is impossible.

Zhang Rongfa raised his head. looked at Zhang Liang and said cautiously: General, let the people give food, they are definitely unwilling, and this will destroy the trust that we and the people have built up so hard?

Zhang Liang looked at Zhang Rongfa in the audience, and said angrily: Then what can you do, you think, you think of a good way, I will listen to you.

Zhang Rongfa looked at the furious Zhang Liang and lowered his head again.

Zhang Liang looked at Zhang Rongfa, who didn't speak, and finally gave an order: We must raise enough food and grass for the army for a month. When necessary, do not have a woman's heart.

Zhang Rongfa looked at Zhang Liang, agreed and retreated.

Zhang Liang knew that with his order, Xingyang City, which was originally quite harmonious, would soon set off stormy waves. But Zhang Liang has no choice, in order to succeed in the great cause, he can't care so much at this time.

Sure enough, as Zhang Liang expected, with the issuance of Zhang Liang's order, Xingyang City, which was originally quite peaceful, immediately boiled, and the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army were collecting grain and grass from house to house, and there were crying and scolding everywhere. Occasionally, something bad happens.

Xu Yan and Xun You, who were standing on the corner of the street, calmly watched everything that happened in front of them. After a long time, Xun You turned his head to look at Xu Zhen and said: The time has come for us to seize Xingyang City, and now it depends on the situation of the general.

Outside Xingyang City, in the camp of Huangfu Song's Chinese army, Huangfu Song looked at Liao Meng who had just returned condescendingly, and after asking Liao Meng in detail about everything that happened in Xingyang City, he waved his hand and let Liao Meng retreat.

Huangfu Song looked at Lu Bu, who was covered in blood, and said happily: Today's battle, thanks to the general's bravery, I will report to the court in detail in this battle, if Xingyang City is defeated, the general should be the first meritorious. When the time comes, the court will reward meritorious deeds, and the general's reward must be indispensable. After saying that, there was a burst of laughter.

Lu Bu stood aside covered in blood, and when he heard Huangfu Song's words, he also laughed.

After a long time, Huangfu Song, who had closed his voice, looked at Lu Bu and said directly: The general should go down and rest early, and the general will need to contribute more in the future.

Lu Bu, who was under the repeated battles, listened to Huangfu Song's words, nodded and agreed. After saluting Huangfu Song, he withdrew from the Chinese army's tent and prepared to go to rest.

Looking at the back of Lu Bu who retreated, thinking about the Xingyang City that was about to arrive, Huangfu Song's heart was excited.
