Chapter 277: Difficulties (Text)

Once survived, the exhausted Gu Laosi silently walked through the crowd gathered under the city wall, which was the most difficult place to be hit by the siege equipment of the Southern Army.

As for the fact that the walls of the city are no longer there, they are the last hope to fill this gap.

Stand in front of a soup bucket and wait patiently for the other person to fill their crockpot. The sound of the thin guy stirring the clear soup at the bottom of the bucket with a spoon represents the supply level that has plummeted since the Jiangbei soldiers entered the city.

At least he had one more reason to hate these Huainan cubs. At least he could at least eat Yu before.

Why the reason for fighting, he has long forgotten, in this troubled world, fighting each other, that is a normal thing, for the simple appeal of having enough to eat, most of the Ding Zhuang in his entire village that year were pulled away by the villagers who came back with more than a dozen carts of grain.

Then this fellow, relying on this group of people, became their team officer, and then as a lowly member of the bottom of one of the few powerful feudal towns in the south of the Yangtze River, with the will of the superiors, in order to compete for land, household registration and goods, and all kinds of conquests, killing or being killed, are a common norm

There are fewer and fewer familiar faces who leave the village in the same batch, and they disappear into the chaotic world one by one, and the team officer has also become the general, and he has also become a member of the general's personal army, drinking and eating meat every once in a while, enjoying the profit of the looted goods, and then quickly disappearing into the belly of those bitches.

It can be said that according to the trend and drive of this world, their lives and honors and disgraces in this life are maintained on this general.

When his general is also dead, now all that remains is the inertia that has to resist,

As an ownerless lost dog, although he has the title of a team general, but in fact there are only a few direct subordinates, and then as a deputy assistant, he assists the team officers to drive those newly recruited Ding Zhuang to the city to send them to death or kill the enemy, the difference is that his meager military experience can give these people a little more chance of surviving.

Now there is not even this point of reliance, and those few subordinates are all killed and smashed into indistinguishable affairs in the artillery battle of the siege.

And he was already numb and didn't have much of the mood to think about their voices and smiles, and he didn't even bother to make do with the world of getting drunk like everyone else, and then cursing this dog's world.

If there is no miracle turnaround, after the southern soldiers enter the city, it is difficult to say whether they will have the opportunity to see the sun in the coming day.

"Gu Four,"

Someone shouted his name.

He turned his head in confusion, and it took him a moment to remember the other party's identity and name. A Marquis Yu who is subordinate to the Yacheng Prison Ban Kong Mu Guan, can be regarded as half of his fellow townsmen.

"Why do you have to eat these things......

He put his shoulders around with some enthusiasm and said,

"Where do I have a better ...... Come with me."

After two checkpoints, a Taoist gate, behind the fence deliberately enclosed in the street, there is a special cave, compared to the messy city wall, compared to the clean and tidy, although the people inside are lazily squatting against the wall or sitting on the ground, but the complexion is much better.

With some people, some comfortable clouds and fog spitting movements, the faint smell of tobacco permeated the air, this kind of thing that can only be supplied in large quantities outside the mountains, is also the few enjoyment and fun for those of them who are still breathing.

Tobacco has many uses, lighting and smoking or chewing in the mouth can refresh the mind, grinding external application can treat scabies and itching and other skins, and even sometimes a little headache and brain fever, you can also use this thing to carry it.

Therefore, on the best days in Jiangning Town, everyone will think of storing some by themselves. And the previous town keeper, although he likes decency and pomp, is a man of good words, and has a channel of communication with the south, he can always get some good things.

"We need someone as sophisticated as you......"

Under the huge shed, there are full of heads of people who are eating,

Smoked and grilled meats on the shelves, large plates of cooked dishes, and barrels of Jiangmi rice. It's a diametrically opposed world to a bunch of soldiers outside who are waiting to eat mixed stewed soup and nibble on jicama.

Then a military general with a raw face began to preach this with a high spirit, probably only by rushing out can he survive.

In response to him, there were only the sound of gobbling chopsticks and biting at the bottom, the comfortable hiccups after being occasionally full, and only when it came to rewards and promises, people pretended to roar a few times as a response

Then came the hot iron, all kinds of white coins, which were brought in in in baskets, and let them grab a handful of them.

Gu Laosi couldn't help but grab a handful with his greasy hand, picked up one and put it in his mouth, which was a large and small silver treasure with quite good color. Although the face value and age of the grain are different, it is a real money minted in silver.

Many people in the same village have never seen such a piece in their lives.

Gu Laosi suddenly understood, it seemed that he was scolded by this fellow, these things are not so easy to accept, but I am afraid that if I can get in, I will not be able to go out in the confinement.

Preparing for the big plan to break through, these meals and preferential treatments are just to make them as the vanguard of the selection of the vanguard, and to supplement their body and spirit.

But it doesn't matter, besides being a soldier and eating food, he really can't think of any other place to be good at.

In fact, as one of the few remaining leaders of the Jiang Ning army, Yaqian commanded, and Jiang Ning guarded Bai Yuanzhu, who was also in some trouble.

In fact, it was because of the lack of manpower in his hands that he had to find someone from these stragglers again.

The rebellion that overthrew Cui Zhenshou within the Jiangning Army was actually supported and endorsed by several major forces in Jiangbei, but this kind of benefit was not so easy to take, and it was necessary to give up some rights and interests as a guarantee.

And as the new regime of the local people who gained the upper hand in the battle between the Turks and the Turks, he was not as convincing to the public as imagined, so as one of the few generals from the local Tuhu, he easily became one of the few important people in the Xinjiang Ning Army.

But this position is not so easy to do, he wants to be like a fire brigade, to suppress and pacify the backlash of those old Cui clans, as a native of the country, he may have a lot of voice among officials at all levels, but in terms of combat effectiveness as an army, it is far inferior to the descendants of the guest army who practiced soldiers in those eras.

After several twists and turns, it took a lot of money to rely on foreign aid, and it was easy to divide and disintegrate, defeating the old Cui clan who led the army to go out one by one, wasting a lot of money, food and materials, and at the same time, it also greatly damaged the vitality of Jiangning Town.

This time, the resistance gathered in Jiangning City can be said to be a kind of Cheng dù that was coerced by others. Don't look at the people gathered, but their minds are not the same.

As the titular main battle faction. He just wanted to get through the early battles and show enough strength to be able to get more conditions and preferential treatment after changing the court.

But the matter was played out at the beginning, or he underestimated the infiltration of the Jiangbei people in his own army, and took the existing Yiqiē, Wunan there, in exchange for official positions and titles, and from the moment the war was out of control, he went bankrupt from the beginning.

They actually openly executed, killed the envoys who came to negotiate with the Southern Dynasty, and then intercepted and killed several waves of secret envoys sent by themselves, and then these Jiangbei soldiers, with the momentum of defeating the Liang Dynasty water division, entered in a big way in the name of going to help, so that the matter completely lost the last bit of dominance.

Under the so-called cold rule, they, the old Jiangning Army, who were originally still controversial, had to temporarily join forces so as not to let everything fall to one side.

To be able to take advantage of this opportunity, which is called a counteroffensive and is actually a breakthrough, to rush out with the most valuable belongings, to avoid other places or to go to sea to be a rich man who does not care about the world, is his final limit and requirement.

Therefore, he did not hesitate to use his power and convenience, and finally acted generously.

Even if you don't have much benefit, you can't let these Huainan people have a better life.

In the camp around the city.

"In Jiangning City, some people want to open the city and ask for ......"

The eastern side of the loud voice commanded, stepping on the white army to control Xu Qing, and sneered unexpectedly

"This group of turtles can't hold on......"

"What about the conditions......

Then he added

"All you need is the life of your family and a warrant to ......"

The person came and whispered

"It's really a bunch of guys who don't remember to eat......"

Xu Qing muttered and waved him down

"Let's look at his words and deeds to ......"

"Army, is that it......"

A pro-military general spoke up

"What else do you want to ......?"

Xu Qing gave him a blank look

"I'm afraid that the other two commanders, and the Military Division, there are also people who don't make sincere ......contributions."

The general argued

"Of course, the credit for this belongs to everyone, but it's hard to say the priority......

"After all, where is the first credit for the first climb, and no one can compete like a risk......"

"But I'm not going to do that...... Got it?"

Xu Qing said lightly

"I can get the results by step, so why do I need this embellishment......"
