Xiao Gan ate a few bites indiscriminately and didn't eat any more. Although he had meat to eat now, he also knew that the soldiers below had no food to eat.

Yesterday, the person he sent to borrow grain from Room B came back, saying that Room B had eight catties and said that there was no grain in Zunhua, and not a grain of grain was lent. Xiao Gan naturally wouldn't believe it.

In this winter's snow disaster, there was not much grain and herbs stored in various departments, and a lot of livestock froze to death, so he had to lead Xi Bing out of Jianke Mountain, wanting to take advantage of the fact that Yanjing was ownerless, and Zhou Nan was tired of dealing with the Jin army and the Song army, so as to take the opportunity to sweep Nanjing Road and achieve hegemony. Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived in Jizhou, Zhou Nan led the Wansheng army to block his way. also used unknown divine beasts to burn the granaries of his three cities in a row, what made Xiao Gan most annoyed and helpless was that until now, Xiao Gan couldn't think of a way to deal with that divine beast.

Now the food is also cut off, and the stinky boy who has not dried up in Room B dares not to send him food, and he feels that his wings are stiff after only a few days of coming out.

"Someone!" Xiao Gan, the former king of the four armies of the Great Liao, has the courage after all, "Pass the order, half of the people of the Chuli Department and the Yaoli Department will each leave half of the men and horses to garrison here, and the rest will go to Zunhua with me." ”

Jizhou can't live anymore, so it's better to plan early. Go east to Jingzhou, or go south to Yutian, wait for yourself to gain a firm foothold and properly hide the grain and grass, what else can Wansheng Army do?

No matter how powerful the Wansheng Army Divine Beast is, but when he burned the Jizhou grain depot that night, he also saw that it flew slowly, that is, it could burn a grain depot. Wan Shengjun has never dared to be a head-on enemy with himself, and he can be regarded as self-aware.

This time he was careless, and when he gained a firm foothold in Zunhua, he did his best to besiege the Wansheng Army, and killed a few people with the arrows of the Wansheng Army.

"I heard that His Majesty is going to send troops to Jingzhou?" The scribe surnamed Han, who rushed to hear the news, said.

"With so many soldiers and horses gathered in one place, there is a shortage of food and grass, and if you hold on, you may suffer a big change." Xiao Gan said quietly.

"The eight catties in room B obviously see that His Majesty has no food, and in the past, the eight catties in room B will definitely turn against His Majesty, and civil strife will arise. It's better to go to Jingzhou than to go to Yutian, so that you can straighten out the soldiers and horses and fight again with the Wansheng army! The scribe surnamed Han persuaded.

Xiao Gan sneered: "Where can there be any opposition between nephews and uncles?!" I know best about my nephew, what he wants to do, I don't know? Rest assured! ”

The scribe surnamed Han saw that Xiao Gan had made up his mind, so it was difficult to persuade him anymore.

The next day, Xiao Gan led his own soldiers and horses and the soldiers and horses he brought back from Yanjing, totaling more than 30,000 people, and less than 10,000 soldiers from the Yaoli and Chuli tribes, leaving Jizhou and marching towards Zunhua.

When leaving, Xiao Gan also solemnly promised the soldiers and horses stationed in Jizhou: as long as he held Jizhou for half a month, he Xiao Gan would bring a large amount of grain and grass to Jizhou, and when the time came, each person would be rewarded with five copper coins.

Xiao Gan originally thought that these people who stayed behind would be full of resentment, and even quarrel with his own people, vying to leave Jizhou and follow him to Zunhua. But to Xiao Gan's surprise, those who were left behind did not make any noise, as if they didn't know that there was no food in Jizhou City.

Xiao Gan can't care about so much, he has to rush to Zunhua now, so that his soldiers can eat a few full meals, and then capture Yutian, as long as Yutian is captured, there will be enough food for his army, and no one will be afraid of him, Xiao Gan!

Room B Bajin said that there is no food in Zunhua, although it is a prevarication, but Xiao Gan also knows that the most important thing in Zunhua is to raise horses and store horses, and Zunhua has a horse storage warehouse, and the supply of war horse forage is enough, but there is not so much food for people to eat. Therefore, even when he arrived in Zunhua, he only repaired for a few days, and then he had to hurry up to capture Yutian.

From Yanjing City to Pingzhou, large and small cities have long been out of the jurisdiction of the government, either self-established as kings or controlled by remnants, but for tens of thousands of horses like Xiao Gan, it is simply a mantis arm as a car. This is also the reason why Xiao Gan led five people to develop in Jizhou.

When Xiao Gan's army was still twenty miles away from Zunhua City, a messenger had already rushed to Zunhua City to report.

Hearing that Xiao Gan personally raised a large army and rushed to Zunhua City, Room B Bajin was also a little stunned. In his mind, his uncle Xiao Gan would not leave his Jizhou City at most, at most, he would send some soldiers and horses over to line up outside the city and force his nephew to send some grain and grass out. At that time, the eight catties of the second room will naturally let the people of Mei Zhibu rush over to fight against Xiao Gan's soldiers and horses.

Until now, the eight catties in the second room have not thought of tearing the dough with Xiao Gan. Room B Bajin only hoped that Xiao Gan would either starve to death in the city in Jizhou, or kill the Wansheng army when he entered the city. At that time, he has the recommendation of these tribes, and it is natural for him to be the new king of Xi, and he does not have to bear the reputation of killing his elders.

Xiao Gan personally rushed to Zunhua, which made Room B Bajin a little at a loss.

Just when Room B didn't know what to do, Manu came in from outside, still with his skinny little servant, and asked to see Room B Eight Jin. Manu and the people of Chuli and Yaoli were not in a hurry to go back yesterday, but they were entertained by a banquet held by Room B and eight catties, and it was getting late, so they all stayed in Zunhua City and did not go back.

Manu looked at the eight catties on his face and asked, "I heard that the emperor personally brought troops over?" ”

Room B Bajin nodded, and said: "Only half of the people in Yaoli and Chuli are stationed in Jizhou, and the rest are all rushed to Zunhua, and a messenger came to report just now, and it is less than twenty miles away from Zunhua." ”

Manu said indignantly: "The emperor took advantage of Jizhou and drove the general to Zunhua in this poor countryside, and now that the grain depot in Jizhou is burning, will he occupy the general's Zunhua City again?!" The general's new King Xi, is he going to knock out his teeth and swallow blood? ”

Room B spread his hands and said: "The emperor has 40,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, and I only have 10,000 soldiers and horses in Zunhua City, not to mention that the emperor still has more than 10,000 ironclad elite horsemen in his hands, brave and good at fighting, even if you add the soldiers and horses of your Mei Division, how many chances of victory?" ”

Manu was a little discouraged when he saw the eight catties in Room B, and sighed: "The general's intention is to give Zunhua City to the emperor?" I'm afraid that the general will give up this city, and the grain and grass in the city will be no longer the general's share tomorrow. ”

Manu glared: "How can I give him all the grain?!" ”

Manu said leisurely: "The grain and grass in the city is not much, it is just a drop in the bucket for the emperor, and it is given to him, he is still too little, the general only gives him a part, he must be angry, and he is forced to force each other, and in the end, only the sword and soldiers meet." ”

Room B Bajin just thought about sending some grain and grass out to Xiao Gan, and now it makes sense to listen to what Manu said, Xiao Gan's 40,000 horses, a few hundred stones of grain and grass, is not enough at all; I ate it today, but what if I want it tomorrow? To give it yourself or not to give it yourself?

Thinking that Xiao Gan suppressed himself and couldn't let himself succeed as King Xi smoothly, the eight catties in the second room naturally hated Xiao Gan, but thinking of the soldiers and horses in Xiao Gan's hands, he was not an opponent at all, so he said helplessly: "He has a lot of soldiers and horses, what else can he do?" ”

Manu looked left and right, pointed his right hand into his palm, and whispered: "Hit the snake and hit the head, capture the thief and capture the king!" ”
