Wu Tieniu roared angrily at the Confucian family with a plate axe, which frightened the family members to turn around and run. Wu Tieniu led people to chase and kill for a while and then retreated, the Confucian Mansion was too big.

If they are all thrown in, they may not be able to occupy the Confucian Mansion, and their current task is to transport food.

In order to transport the grain from Confucius, Wu Tieniu scraped up almost all the carts in Qubu.

The displaced people who have been stranded in the city these days have also joined the ranks of transporting grain, and as long as the grain is delivered to the designated place, each person will receive half a bag of grain.

Food was invaluable to these displaced people, who could not even eat, and they risked their heads to join the Niulanshan Rebels.

For these people who may starve to death at any time, as long as they can eat a full meal, they have no regrets about asking them to die the next moment.

The Niulanshan rebels stayed in Qubu for a day and a half before leaving, and Kong Yanzhi breathed a sigh of relief when they walked out of the county seat.

This group of rebels finally left Qubu, and the lives of themselves and the Kong family were saved.

When he saw the empty granary in the backyard, he was so angry that he didn't faint.

The entire 300,000 stone of grain, almost all of the Kong family's grain stockpile, was snatched away like this. The thought of the food being gone made his heart bleed.

Not to mention Kong Yanzhi's distress, Zhao Yan, the governor of Shandong, has also been in a headache recently. Originally, he thought that Yang Guodong, who had sent Yang Jiji and Denglai, would definitely defeat the rebellious people in one fell swoop when the White Lotus Sect did not become bigger.

But who wants to kill a mallet club halfway, not only defeated the official army, but also forced the remaining official army into Qubu.

Now Xu Hongru's power has further expanded, and the number of people has reached 200,000. With so many people making trouble in Shandong, the imperial court was already furious.

If he can't quickly pacify the White Lotus Sect, he will be the governor of the end. The Dacheng army did not take Qubu, and turned to attack Dongping County and Pingyin County.

Dongping County finally won it at the cost of 20,000 people at the cost of Xu Hongru, and now there is only the last obstacle in Pingyin County in front of him.

As long as he can take here, he can go straight to Jinan. Laying Jinan will be the beginning of his firm foundation, when the dragons of Shandong are leaderless, he will definitely be able to incite countless people to confront the imperial court.

Zhao Yan had already put all the treasures on Pingyin County, and he put all the troops that could be mobilized in Pingyin County.

Thousands of officers and troops have been concentrated here, and as long as they hold this place, they can hold out until the imperial court draws elites from the border army to quell the rebellion.

The big tent of the Dacheng army was full of joy, and Xu Hongru frequently toasted the generals sitting on the main seat.

Conquering Dongping County is one step closer to his goal, as long as Pingyin County is laid again, he will be able to fight Jinan.

Just as he was rejoicing, a voice interrupted his reverie.

"Your Majesty! We don't have much food and grass left, and we can last for seven days at most. If Pingyin County cannot be defeated in seven days, the army is in danger of running out of food. "It was Wang Haoxian who spoke, and now he is the prime minister of Dacheng's prosperous army, and he is in charge of the grain and grass affairs.

Xu Hongru's face showed displeasure, it was really a bad thing to mention at the celebration party.

But grain and grass are a matter of life and death for the whole army, and he looked at the generalissimo Yu Hongzhi who was sitting on the side.

Seeing Xu Hongru's gaze, Yu Hongzhi put down his wine glass and said, "Your Majesty! The time for the seventh day to defeat Pingyin County is a bit tight, but we can send people to go around to collect food. As long as the troops sent to collect grain can break through a few rich stockades, they will definitely be able to hold out for a few more days. ”

Hearing Yu Hongzhi say this, Xu Hongru also nodded. Although 200,000 horses may sound terrifying, only he knows the suffering.

There are only about 20,000 people who can fight here, and the rest are homeless people, women and children. These people can't do anything but eat with him, and he can't get rid of these burdens.

Dongping County consumed nearly 20,000 in the First World War, and I hope Pingyin County can consume more! These homeless people are not used for anything except as cannon fodder.

The county seat of Pingyin was busy, and under the command of the county order, the whole city was mobilized. Each of the men in the city was formed into a team to fortify the walls, and they were the defenders of the city in the event of a battle.

Except for the death of the battle, they have no chance to go down the city wall, otherwise they will not be able to defend the huge Pingyin County by relying on thousands of officers and soldiers.

When Pingyin County was surrounded by Xu Hongru's army, everyone's legs in the city were trembling.

The black heart under the city was overwhelming. Looking at the chaotic people, Wu Shuang's heart standing at the head of the city was also beating violently.

Born in a family of eunuchs, he has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and can be described as both civil and military, not only proficient in all eighteen kinds of weapons, especially good at shooting, but also won the show at the age of 16.

His father's resignation and return to his hometown to live in seclusion had a great impact on him, although he was selected for the show, he was unwilling to go up to the top to gain fame.

With the identity of Xiucai, Wu Shuang has been wandering around the rivers and lakes. At the age of 23, he escaped marriage again, passing through Pingyin County and being trapped in the city.

Hearing that the rebellious militia of the White Lotus Sect was besieging Pingyin County, he was the first to sign up for the war. He wants to use his skills to defeat the demons of the White Lotus Sect and return peace to the people of Shandong.

Full of confidence, his heart beat non-stop the moment the Dacheng army appeared, there were so many people in the city that it made people dizzy to watch, let alone kill so many people.

His self-confidence was hit badly, and for the first time he felt so little power.

When he saw a young man behind him, he found that the faces of these people were also pale. There was already liquid flowing out of the legs of some people, and seeing the performance of these people, Wu Shuang's originally frightened heart calmed down a lot.

The Dacheng army did not give much time for the officers and troops at the head of the city to prepare, and they launched a fierce attack after surrounding Pingyin County.

The leader of the Dacheng army stood in front of the ragged homeless and said, "If you want to eat, you have to fill the river!" One bowl of porridge for each person who digs the soil, and one bowl of porridge and two cakes for each person who fills the river! ”

After he finished shouting, there was a commotion among the homeless people. The work of digging the earth was tiring, but there was no need to risk arrows to throw sandbags into the moat.

Everyone could understand that they were given little food, but if they were asked to fill the river with arrows, these displaced people began to hesitate.

This is completely a fight with life, and the slightest mistake will kill the city. A lot of people went to the ranks of digging the earth, and there was no one in the river. The rest of the people are also hesitating, desperately trying to get a bite to eat, not knowing if it's worth it.

Seeing that the displaced people were hesitating, the leader spoke again: "Those who can survive the river reclamation can all join the Dacheng army, and then you can move your family to the old camp, and you don't have to worry about your family starving anymore!" ”

The temptation of these words to the homeless people was huge, and a young man hugged the girl next to him and said, "Little sister! Wait for your brother to come back and take you to the old camp, where you don't have to worry about starving anymore! ”
