The offensive and defensive battle of Yugancheng continued, and due to the frequent activities of the cavalry sent by Lu Chang on the transportation lines of the Chu army, the supply of grain and grass for the Chu army was tight. This is because Lu Chang doesn't want to completely cut off the supply of grain and grass to the Chu army, just to make the food supply of the Chu army tight. If Lu Chang thinks that the time is up, he will completely cut off the grain and grass of the Chu army.

How can you fight a war without food and grass? The soldier's body could not support it, and the effect of the battle was naturally not ideal.

Lin Shihong watched the weak attack of his soldiers, and his brows furrowed more and more tightly into a pimple.

Cui Jixiu, who was beside him, looked at the siege situation, and also frowned, and then tilted his head to look at Lin Shihong.

"Your Majesty, I can't attack it today, the soldiers are too tired, let's withdraw."

"Okay, Mingjin withdraws his troops, rests for one night, and attacks again tomorrow."

Lin Shihong was also helpless, the soldiers couldn't eat enough during this time, and they were already exhausted from the repeated sieges, and it would be useless to continue the attack, so it was better to withdraw as soon as possible.

"Your Majesty, have you noticed that there are fewer and fewer soldiers of the Xiaoguo Army in the city, there are only more than three hundred people on each wall, almost two hundred fewer than at the beginning."

Lin Shihong also noticed this phenomenon, but he didn't count it.

"Although our army has suffered heavy casualties, I'm afraid that it will not be easy in Yugan City. Once the soldiers of the Xiaoguo Army are exhausted, what will be the role of the remaining people? So, we have to persevere, and whoever persists until the end is the winner. As long as this Xiaoguo army is eliminated, the Sui Dynasty will no longer be able to send troops and horses, and the land south of the Yangtze River will be the territory of the Chu State. As for the army, it is a big deal to expand the army after eliminating this Sui army. The only thing to worry about now is the food supply, those damned cavalry. ”

What Lin Shihong saw was actually an illusion, and the army in Yugan City was consciously reducing the number of soldiers wearing armor on the city walls, in order to confuse the other party. Otherwise, how could Lin Shihong be fooled?

Digging a pit, Lu Chang will continue to dig a pit, he will kill Lin Shihong.

Lin Shihong was wrong from the beginning and fell into Lu Chang's trap step by step. According to the forces in Lu Chang's hands, he was not afraid of Lin Shihong at all. But he had to keep the war going. If Lin Shihong is eliminated in one fell swoop, what will happen to the rest of the time?

Since Lu Chang didn't want to return to Jiangdu City, let Lin Shihong's forces continue to exist. The war is fought slowly, as long as the war continues, Lu Chang will have a reason to stay in Jiangnan.

Therefore, Lu Chang left Lin Shihong with an illusion, and the Xiaoguo army was just that little bit of soldiers and horses, and Lin Shihong's Chu army would be wiped out as long as he stretched out his fingers.

So, Lin Shihong was led by Lu Chang to this day.

Mingjin sounded, and the soldiers of the Chu army seemed to hear the sound of immortals, and they withdrew all of a sudden, and their actions were much more profitable than attacking the city.

The Chu army was uncomfortable, and the Xiaoguo army in the city was also busy enough, and as soon as the besieging army withdrew, the soldiers of the Xiaoguo army on the city wall all collapsed to the ground at once.

When a soldier fights, he doesn't feel anything, but once the war is over, his body and mind are relaxed, and fatigue suddenly hits.

Although the 60,000 troops of the Chu army are getting smaller and smaller, and people are killed every day when they attack the city, there are almost 40,000 troops now. But Lin Shihong was red-eyed, and recognized that there were only 2,000 Xiaoguo troops in the city, and he swore not to give up if he didn't break the city!

On the other hand, the Sui army in the city is very sufficient, the city is headed by Song Hui and Xu Zhi, the strength of the city is 40,000, and at the same time, it also occupies the advantage of being on the city wall, how can Lin Shihong's army break the city?

Offensive and defensive battles are always the advantage of the defenders, and the casualties of the city will inevitably be much less if they are protected by the city walls. On the other hand, the Chu army had to brave a dense rain of arrows to get close to the city wall every time it attacked, and the casualties were bound to be very heavy.

If Lin Shihong hadn't decided that there were not many Xiaoguo troops in the city, he probably wouldn't have been stupid enough to capture Yugancheng.

If the soldiers can't stand the continuous battle, since there are 40,000 troops in Yugan City, then the troops in the city will take turns to defend the city, which is much more comfortable than the Chu army outside the city.

In recent times, due to the decline in the number of Chu troops, the strength of the siege has been significantly weaker. It's no longer like it was at the beginning.

Moreover, the only remaining 40,000 troops of the Chu army now have to send out about 5,000 people to escort grain and grass, and the army participating in the siege is at most 3,500 people. Divided into four walls, the strength is much weaker.

The time entered late May, Lu Chang felt that the time was almost up, and he didn't want to play with Lin Shihong anymore, he was ready to end the battle at the end of May and the beginning of June.

Therefore, Lu Chang ordered 2,000 cavalry to wipe out Lin Shihong's grain protection army and completely cut off Lin Shihong's grain and grass supply route.

Because, at this time, Yuezhou lieutenants Dong Jingzhen and Lei Shimeng, brigade commanders Zheng Wenxiu, Xu Xuanche, Wan Zan, Xu Deji, Guo Hua, and Zhang Xiu, a native of Chuzhou, had already begun to plot against Sui.

To the east not far from Yuezhou, Lin Shihong became the emperor, and those ambitious people are not ready to move? The Great Sui Dynasty is all eroded, and everyone knows it in their hearts, unless they have no ambition in their hearts, they all want to come out and carve up a sphere of influence.

A group of people in Yuezhou wanted to elect Dong Jingzhen as the leader, Dong Jingzhen said: "I have always been humble, although I pretend to be famous, I am afraid that I will not be able to convince the public." Luochuan County Ling Xiao Milling, a descendant of the Emperor of the Liang Dynasty, is generous and generous, and has the legacy of Emperor Wu of Liang. Moreover, I have heard that when the emperor rises, there will be a commandment. The crown belt of the Sui Dynasty is called 'Qiliang', which is a sign of Xiao's Zhongxing. Wouldn't it be better to push him now as the main and to respond to the heavens? ”

Everyone accepted Dong Jingzhen's recommendation and sent someone to contact Xiao Miao.

After receiving the letter, Xiao Mo replied to Dong Jingzhen: "My ancestor served the Sui Dynasty, and there was no lack of tribute, but the Sui people were greedy for my land and destroyed my sect society, so I was heartbroken and wanted to wash away this shame." Now that God has induced you to devote yourself to the renewal, the reign of the Liang Dynasty will be renewed, in order to bless the first emperor, how dare I not gather and encourage the people to follow the prince? ”

So, the two sides hit it off, and Xiao Mo wanted to raise the banner of the Liang Dynasty and restore the country.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Mo and Dong Jingzhen began to recruit troops, preparing to raise troops against Sui.

Of course, if Lu Chang had destroyed Lin Shihong early, and the army was sitting here, maybe he would have really suppressed those rebels who were about to move.

The problem is that Lu Chang must let Lin Shihong go down, and use this reason to stay in Jiangnan and not leave. In this way, history still develops according to the original trajectory.

Strictly speaking, the outcome of the war between Lin Shihong and Lu Changxiao's army determined the trend of the situation in Jiangnan. If the official army is very strong, some timid people may die down. When Lin Shihong becomes bigger, those people will be bolder, and they will defect to Lin Shihong when they kill officials.
