Liang Taishou was in the granary of Fucheng with many subordinates, looking at the tall warehouse: "It's an eventful time, and now it's famine and war, and food is the top priority." Liu Tao, how is the food now? ”

Liu Tao saw his name, walked out of the crowd forward, listened to Taishou's words, had already made up his mind, and said: "Taishou is working hard, there are not many things to starve to death under the rule now, and the government has already prepared, the grain in the grain depot has been moldy, maybe you can adjust it, issue subsidies, and give food to households!" As for the military rations, they were prepared early, enough for more than 10,000 soldiers to consume for a year! ”

Liang Taishou listened and said with a smile: "This is a good idea to help the victims, and it is in line with my original intention, so I will do it according to this." As for the supply of military rations, it must be timely, and this official has already sent someone to discuss with the wealthy family to borrow the family ......"

Liang Taishou was saying, suddenly heard a burst of thunder in the distance, like ten thousand horses rushing, even the earth trembled, Liang Taishou couldn't help but be shocked, how could there be a large number of cavalry, but who had such a large-scale cavalry at this time?

Hurriedly sent someone to check the situation, and heard someone shouting: "It's the anti-thief, they have attacked!" ”

Before the words fell, the rumbling iron hooves and the fierce fighting could be heard.

Liang Taishou stood on a high place at a high speed, looking at the surging cavalry like a tide, as well as the officers and soldiers who were constantly being cut to the ground, he couldn't speak, but his eyes opened angrily, and with a "poof" sound, he spit out a mouthful of blood and fell straight down.

For a while, the soldiers were in chaos, and I saw the rebels shouting loudly: "Kill no way, punish the tyrant!" Kill"

"Kill!"

With the fierce attack of the rebel cavalry, the officers and troops on the southern side had entered a state of rout, unable to organize effective resistance. Then Zhou Ping led the army to support, and soon took control of the city gate, and the siege of the city was at this moment.

No matter how you look at it, the situation is very good.

But at this time, black smoke suddenly rose from the center of the city and the east city.

At first, whether it was Zhang Wuwu or Zhou Ping, they didn't care too much. And in this chaotic situation, someone must have taken advantage of the fire to rob. But the speed at which those two fires spread was extremely alarming, almost instantaneously rising into the sky, giving people a sense of covering the sky and the sun.

This kind of fire, which is almost exaggerated, is very unusual.

After roughly judging the location of the fire, the expression on Zhang Wuwu's face froze. Soon, he immediately issued a strict order: "At any cost, immediately take it and rush to the center of the city!" ”

Lei Chuan had never seen Zhang Wuwu so out of shape, or even angry, and couldn't help but ask, "General, what happened?" ”

Zhang Wuwu raised his head and stared at the two black smokes, and only replied after half a sound: "Someone set fire to the treasury and burned the granary!" ”

What the?

The faces of several rebel generals nearby suddenly changed drastically.

They already knew that there were at least 100,000 stone of grain in the granary of Fucheng, and the amount was almost ten times that of the grain depots in Si County and Pingcheng County. I heard that the marshal attaches great importance to these grains. Be prepared to use it as a basis for recruitment.

I never expected it!

"That Liang Xuanfeng Liang is too guarded, so ruthless ......"

Lei Chuan, who joined the army, gasped and muttered to himself.

With so much food, is the government really willing to burn it?

Do you really dare to burn again?

This one goes down. Aren't you afraid that the hundreds of thousands of civilians in Nanyang Mansion City will starve to death?

In the shock of the rebel generals, the rebels at the head of the city got the order, Zhang Wuwu ignored the possible danger in the city, led the cavalry and rushed towards the granary in the center of the city.

The news that the city of Nanyang Mansion was destroyed and the thief army entered the city in a big way. At this time, it has spread in Nanyang City. Every family looked panicked, as if the end had come.

Zhang Wuwu's cavalry rushed in all the way, and for those who dared to stand in the way, Zhang Wuwu directly ordered people to shoot them. Those who know how to get out of the way will not have the leisure to care. Moments later, the cavalry dispersed a group of fleeing officers and arrived in the center of the city.

The largest granary in the entire Nanyang Mansion is in this area!

After such a distance, Zhang Wuwu could faintly feel the heat wave coming, as well as orange flames and black smoke rushing into the sky. One can imagine what the granary was burned into.

After dismounting and rushing over, they could not even get 100 meters close to the fire.

"It's a good Liang Xuanfeng, but the general underestimated him!"

Watching countless precious grains turn into ashes, Zhang Wuwu said this sentence almost word by word, and he really hated it in his heart.

"How's that okay?"

Looking at the terrifying fire, the other generals of the rebel army also found it difficult to maintain their composure. Someone proposed to immediately send troops over to extinguish the fire, but without thinking about it, they vetoed it.

With such an almost prairie fire, it is simply impossible to extinguish the fire. If you forcibly save it, I'm afraid that a few people will be burned to death.

I have to say that Liang Xuanfeng's desperate move hit the weakness of the rebel army.

"The government really dares to do it!"

Zhao Gong had nothing to say.

If this fire continues, Nanyang Mansion City is afraid that tens of thousands of people will die.

Liang Xuanfeng is too guarded, isn't he afraid of his reputation?

"What would he not dare?"

Lei Chuan, who joined the army, turned pale, and snorted coldly: "The moment Nanyang City fell into the hands of the righteous army, it was no longer a subject of the empire. Even if you burn food, the one who starves to death is a thief. Liang Xuanfeng's move, if he reports to the empire, he will only be rewarded. I can even guess how he got into the book: he held on to the city for many days, killing countless thieves; Although there were no reinforcements from outside and they were invincible, they still took the lead before breaking the city, desperately burning grain and grass to prevent them from falling into the hands of thieves. Look at it, it's meritorious! Give gifts to the princes of the center, and then ask the people in the faction to operate, maybe you can make a merit and offset his unfavorable responsibility of defending the territory! ”

Although this is a little mean, it is the essence of imperial politics.

"Let's go to the treasury of Taishou Mansion."

Although he also did not give up hope, after circling here for a while, Zhang Wuwu still rushed to the Taishou Mansion in Nanyang City with the cavalry later.

Liang Xuanfeng did not seem to choose to die with the city, but disappeared after the rebel army entered the city. When Zhang Wuwu's cavalry arrived, the Taishou Mansion was basically empty, and only some panicked subordinates remained.

Zhou Ping, Zhao Gong and others also arrived a quarter of an hour later.

They searched everywhere for their belongings, and except for gold and silver coins, which were difficult to carry, other valuable items were taken from the treasury, and the grain was burned. Intentionally organized people to extinguish the fire, but unfortunately, it was also in vain.

"Damn Liang Xuanfeng, it's best not to let me catch him!"

Zhou Ping's face was extremely gloomy, and he couldn't wait to catch the former Taishou and light the sky lantern.

"General Zhou, what now?" Zhang Wuwu had just joined the rebel army, and he had never seen the marshal, so as a general who joined later, he could only throw the problem to Zhou Ping.

"What else can I do? Immediately send someone to tell the marshal the truth. Zhou Ping's face was blue, and his eyes were shining as he looked at the burning fire.
