When I came to Xianyang, the small counties and towns along the way were all conquered by the enemy.

This time the enemy was very powerful, basically winning a hundred battles, and the Qin army on the road was also defenseless, and was caught off guard by Ji Han's soldiers and horses, and was defeated.

The soldiers of the Qin army that can be seen everywhere along the road make the morale of our side very depressed.

There is a county called Suiyang, and almost all the Qin army and people in Suiyang are dead, which also shocks me very much at the bottom of the Qin army, although it failed, it seems to have caused a lot of damage to Ji Han's army.

That is, when passing through Suiyang, a prompt came from the system.

【Ding Dong!】 The host encounters Suiyang's hidden mission, 10,000 psychic coins, in exchange for Zhang Xun, the general who defends the city, can the host be willing to accept it? 】

The prompt of the system made me excited, this Zhang Xun is a character, he is the leading general of the Tang Dynasty.

Among them, Zhang's defense of Suiyang can be called the most outstanding and tragic battle in history.

The defenders had only a few thousand people, while the rebels reached more than 200,000 at the most, including 130,000 soldiers from the most elite of An Lushan, such as Gui, Tan, Tongluo, and Xi.

In the ten-month defense battle, the Suiyang army and people experienced more than 400 bloody battles, killing a total of 120,000 enemies, killing more than 300 enemy generals, and capturing more than 60 rebel generals.

In the end, due to the exhaustion of food, he was forced to slaughter horses, dig rats and catch birds to satisfy hunger, but these were far from enough, at the critical juncture when a large number of soldiers died of hunger, Xu Yuan killed the house slaves, and Zhang Xun killed his concubine to satisfy the hunger of the soldiers, and resisted to the end with an oath.

At the end of the battle, there was a tragic scene of cannibalism in the whole city, a total of more than 30,000 people were eaten, and there were only about 400 hungry soldiers left in the Suiyang defenders, and the city finally fell.

Zhang Xun blocked the southward movement of the Anshi rebels, so that the rich Jianghuai region could be preserved, and the tax town of the Tang Dynasty was retained; In addition, it contained a large number of rebels and won valuable time for the Tang Army to organize a strategic counteroffensive.

After the fall of the city, the men were generally killed or enslaved, and the children were transported back to the Saiwai tribe in gold silk. The Central Plains region suffered an unprecedented catastrophe, and the population of the Tang Dynasty fell by two-thirds, until the death of the Tang Dynasty, and the population of the whole country never recovered to the level of Tianbao's 14th year.

When I got this task, I immediately said, "Yes, I accept it!" ”

At this moment, when the army passed through the official road of Suiyang, a new soldier ran over: "General, general!" General, please stay! ”

"Bold! If you dare to intercept the way of the officers and soldiers, I can kill you right now. "Ma drank overly.

I raised my hand and said: "I see that you are a local garrison, I know that there is a big war in Suiyang, this trip to Xianyang, I will report to Your Majesty, and then let Your Majesty allocate funds, and then how about rectifying Suiyang?" ”

"General...... We...... Our brothers in Suiyang, in order to block Ji Han's army, were almost killed and wounded, and after seven days of defense, they sent a fine work to burn our granary, and now all the people in Suiyang are starving...... Our general Zhang Xun even killed his beloved concubine and cooked broth for his brothers to drink...... General, please save our general, save everyone...... Most of the brothers were killed in battle to stop the enemy, and the remaining brothers were dying of starvation......" the soldier cried.

Wang Li said: "Brother-in-law, in fact, we don't have much time, we should hurry back to Xianyang." ”

I gritted my teeth and said, "Leave half of our grain and grass behind to help the people." ”

"What?! Brother-in-law, you are crazy, our grain and grass itself is only half a month, in Linyi we also distributed all Cheng Su's grain and grass to the people, and when we arrived in Xianyang, it was already the day after tomorrow, that is, we had to defeat the enemy within five days, which is too high for the combat intensity of the brothers, brother-in-law...... You have to think twice! Wang Li said.

Ma Chao also said: "Big brother, now that we are Qin soldiers, it is a capital crime to use grain and grass without authorization...... This is a violation of military law. ”

"Needless to say, I support Xiongtu's approach." Wang Nujiao came over and said, "All the granaries here have been burned down, and all the farmland within a radius of 300 miles has been robbed by the enemy, if we don't care about the lives of the people here, what is the difference between it and these murderers on the other side?" If you don't save yourself, you're killing people! ”

"Sister, why don't you care about the overall situation, now we are going to deal with Ji Han, which is a very difficult thing in itself, so we also distribute our own strength to others, how can we help Gongzi Hu Hai to reinstate?" Wang Li said excitedly.

"I am the eldest daughter of the Wang family, and I am also half a commander here!" Wang Nujiao snorted.

Wang Li seemed very unwilling, but at the insistence of Wang Nujiao and me, he still distributed the grain and grass.

At this time, from Suiyang, a tired general came, and at a glance he knew that it was Zhang Xun.

【Zhang Xun】

【Epic Heroes】

[Force 92]

[Intelligence 85]

[Commander 105]

【Charm 67】

[Special Skill: Fortification Enhancement: When defending, the ability of your soldiers is increased by 100%.] 】

[Special Skill: Civilian-Military Unity: When defending, the men in the city can become defensive soldiers at any time.] 】

I lack heroes now, but what I lack most is some heroes with special skills, and Zhang Xun's defensive ability at the moment makes my eyes shine.

I dismounted and greeted: "General Zhang! ”

"Thank you, General Lin!" Zhang Xun knelt in front of me after a pounce, "The general's grain and grass are the life-saving straw for the 30,000 soldiers and civilians in our city!" General Lin's kindness, I Zhang Xun remembered, but General Lin ...... Now that the thief army has attacked Xianyang City, please return to the defense in time to protect Your Majesty! ”

"General Zhang's loyalty can be learned! I also have this intention, I will leave these grains and grass, everything is waiting for you to distribute, the 100,000 fires on the front line on my side can't wait, I must immediately Qichen, and when he is free, I will come to Suiyang to find General Zhang to drink together! I said.

Zhang Xun burst into tears: "The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, there is a reluctant request, and I hope that General Lin will be fulfilled!" ”

"Please!"

"I want to take the remnants of the soldiers to help General Lin deal with the rebels, and also do my duty as a courtier!" Zhang Xun said.

"What about Suiyang?" I said worriedly.

Zhang Xun's face was firm: "My brother Xu Yuan took over my position and continued to pacify the surviving people in the city, and I took a knife and gun to avenge the dead fathers and villagers with General Lin!"

"No! We are already in urgent need of food and grass now, and if we had 3,000 more of yours, wouldn't it be even more urgent? Wang Li on the side said.

In fact, Wang Li did the right thing, and my decision was also right, from different perspectives, everyone has a reason.

I am the love part, and Wang Li is the duty, and they all have their own positions.

Wang Nujiao glanced at Wang Li, which invisibly put pressure on Wang Li, and immediately made Wang Li speechless, so he had to obey the two of us.

After the group discussed, they immediately headed towards Xianyang.

I encountered several waves of bandits along the way, and I took these bandits by the way, killed all the wicked people, and replenished some food and grass, which was finally able to solve our urgent needs.

But this time, Ji Han's army did not pass a single place, and they looted the crops in the fields, which made people hateful.

When I came to Xianyang City, no one arrived, but the smell of blood had already spread, I personally made a scout, and when I saw the battle outside Xianyang City, I was so shocked that I had nothing to say.

Because the battle had already begun, the defenders of Xianyang City at this time had already begun to engage Ji Han's army.

The Great Qin warriors mingled with the Ji Han army, and although the Qin army was quite numerous, it still fell behind in the face of the morale and bloodthirsty Han army.

"Big brother, the situation is very bad, there have been many generals who have sacrificed, and there are only seven people left in the Thirteenth Taibao now, and the guards in the city have also sacrificed a lot of them.

Zhao's subordinates Bai Changsheng and Zhu Batian also came out to fight, but the enemy had 120,000 people, and if the city was besieged like this, the people's hearts would be in turmoil, and it would be unimaginable after the city was broken. ”

Yue Fei came to see me with a sentry.

"Now we have 60,000 men on our hands, and 60,000 men against 120,000 men is completely an egg against a stone...... "I said heavily, "it has to be like a two-pronged strategy!" ”
