The hungry people killed all the horses in the barracks, and then each of them took some home. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Popular Novels, Latest Chapters Visit:.

The angry city defense army launched a retaliation, armed with bows and arrows and iron guns, searched from house to house, as long as there was horse 'meat' at home, they snatched the horse 'meat', and the man was arrested, and those who did not obey were killed on the spot!

It was noisy until the evening, and the southeast wind blew in the city, and the smell of 'meat' wafted all over the city. But this is not the horse 'meat', but the people of Fuhugang gathered outside the 'gate' of Xicheng and held a bonfire party, barbecued 'meat' and drank wine, sang and danced!

From the west 'gate' of Fuhugang to the east 'gate' of Qingzhou, it is only half an hour's distance, and the smell of those 'meat' and wine have drifted into the city of Qingzhou, and the laughter and laughter are also clearly audible, and it can't help but be the people of Qingzhou, even the soldiers on the city wall, can't help but stretch their necks and swallow their saliva hard!

What's even more covetous is that there are also those Qingzhou people who escaped, they also hold large pieces of cooked 'meat', eat with their mouths full of oil, and their mouths are still shouting: "Come out, the Xuanjun is a benevolent army, they don't enter the house at night, they don't levy grain every day, and the people of Fuhugang live the life of gods, and they eat delicious wine and fragrant 'meat' every day, not like the prefect and the city guard say like the king of Hades!"

"They are lying to you! When you go out, they will not kill you at all! Xuanbao is the devil, you must not believe him!" Langtu, covered in wounds, stood on the city wall and shouted to the people of the city, but no one answered him.

The people are not fools, and everyone knows who is good and who is bad. Those who drink wine and eat 'meat' are indeed making a show, but the smiles on their faces are not fake, and the pleasure that flows from their singing is not fake, if Xuanbao is really so terrible, they will not be so happy!

There is nothing to eat in the city, even if all the horses are killed, it is not enough for the whole city to eat, not to mention that those city defense soldiers have violently snatched away the horse 'meat', and killed a lot of people.

What frightened Langtu even more was that with the current strength of the city's defenses, it was simply not enough to resist an attack by the Die Hard! What made Langtu even more frightened was that the city air defense was weak, but the Die Hard Army turned a blind eye as if they were blind, and they just did not attack!

They had only one purpose in not attacking, and that was to starve their gang to death! He Langtu refused to surrender for the sake of keeping the festival and keeping his will in the Yin Dynasty, and would rather live standing than die on his knees!

But after such a long time, the court has not sent a single soldier, and he can die in battle, because he is a hero! But he does not want to be a general who starves to death, that is too much of a bag, and he will be laughed at when he dies!

However, Langtu knew very well that even if the Die Hard Army could let everyone go, they would not let him and Yu Chengze go! From the moment the two of them cut off Mo Ping's head for the sake of Mingzhi, they had already become mortal enemies with the Die Hard!

After two more days of stalemate, people began to starve to death in Cheongju City. Some people tried to sneak out of the city, but they were 'shot' and killed by the city guards. The people of Fuhugang still roast 'meat' and drink wine outside the city every night, and the people of Qingzhou City, who are greedy, soar all night, even if they are making a show, if they can eat such a fragrant meal of wine 'meat', it is worth dying!

Although there are city guards who stop them, and those who find them absconding will be killed, once the people's hearts fall, they will not be able to prevent it no matter how much they defend! Every night, many people still take advantage of the opportunity to change guards to sneak out of the city, and they use long ladders or ropes to climb the city wall in small groups, and then quietly climb down.

Finally one day, the sky above the 'gate' of Cheongju East City, when the city guards came to change the guards in the morning, the soldiers on duty at night abandoned the city and ran away with the people!

As long as someone takes the lead in everything, there will always be no shortage of people to follow suit. With the first batch, there was the second batch, a large number of city guards were caught in the people, escaped from the 'gate' of the east city of Qingzhou, Langtu's personal guards could not stop each other, in just three days, Qingzhou City almost became an empty city, except for the old and weak who were already hungry and dying, those who could walk around a little had already run!

Ironically, Langtu and Yu Chengze shook hands and made peace at this moment! Because they knew that they were already betraying their relatives, and they had no life at all except fighting to the death!

There are less than 40,000 city defense soldiers left, of which more than 20,000 are the city defense of Fuhugang, and they are led by Yuan Zhi, the guard of Fuhugang.

Now Yuan Zhi has regretted that he almost has his intestines turned blue! If he hadn't brought his troops here, he wouldn't have been dragged down to such an extent by Langtu, even if Fuhugang was captured by the Xuan army, as long as he surrendered, he would be able to save his 'life'! It's good now, he must be killed!

The day before the Xuan Army was scheduled to send troops, the Tiger Courage Army, which felt that it had actually matured, launched an attack on Cheongju City! This time, the Tiger Courage Army did not attack the empty East Gate, but still attacked from the South Gate!

This attack was different from a month ago, the Tigers pushed away the siege engines, brought ladders, brought sassal trees, and equipped rockets!

The battle lasted less than half an hour, and the Die Hards crashed open the city gate, and on the city wall, thousands of Die Hards rushed to the city guards shouting and killing.

In this battle, the Die Hard army suffered 300 casualties and killed 8,000 enemies, including Yuan Zhi, the defender of Fuhugang City, and captured more than 20,000 people!

Just searched the garrison camp, but couldn't find any trace of Langtu, Mo Zhan gritted his teeth with hatred, and ordered the whole city to be blocked, even if it was three feet into the ground, he and Yu Chengze had to be found!

The hard work paid off, and an hour later, Yu Chengze and Langtu were found at the same time, but they had become two corpses. In the backyard of the Qingzhou City Government, this pair of brothers and sisters sat under the big tree in the courtyard, and there was a wine glass in front of a person on the stone table in the middle, and there was still some residual wine in it, and there was a plate of fennel beans on the stone table, which was the snack of the two Qingzhou parents before they died.

Mo Zhan picked up the wine glass and sniffed it, and then looked at the appearance of Yu Chengze and Langtu, broke the cup angrily, and scolded at the two corpses: "Count you lucky, you committed suicide by taking poison, and you ended up with a whole corpse!"

Outside Cheongju City, corpses are piled up! There are not only soldiers killed on both sides, but also a large number of Cheongju people who were starved to death!

The fire engulfed everything, smoke billowed from the sky, vultures and vultures did not dare to approach, and a disgusting stench came from the air!

From morning to dusk, the fire was gradually extinguished, tens of thousands of bones were burned to ashes, the prisoners of war shoveled into the pre-dug pit with shovels, covered with thick soil, tens of thousands of cavalry galloped horses, trampled the burial ground level, so as to prevent the wild wolves and wild dogs that were not completely burned out because of the rain or smell, and threw them everywhere!

Standing on the 'gate' tower of the southern city of Qingzhou, looking at the galloping war horses on the wasteland in the distance, Xiaobao let out a long sigh, within a few months, grass will grow there, and when the next year, the people of the two towns will be called on to open up wasteland and farm there, no one has ever remembered that in this wasteland, the corpses of more than 100,000 people have been buried!

"Emperor, there is movement in the direction of Panda, there are about 200,000 Yin army troops, approaching in the direction of Qingzhou!" Shi Wuce stood behind Xiao Bao and whispered to him the information he had just received.

Xianyang shook his head and said: "I don't understand, they didn't move when Qingzhou was besieged, and now they come here at this time, what do they want to do?

Xiao Bao frowned, shook his head slightly, and said in a deep voice: "This is not Yin Hu's idea at all, this is Yu Xuan's means!"

"Yu Xuan?" The group of generals behind him are a little inexplicable, he is just a prime minister, the prime minister of the Yin Dynasty has no military power, how can he mobilize the army?

Even if he can mobilize the army, how can he be so mediocre? Leaving the city convenient and not defending, he came to Cheongju to provoke, but there are only 200,000 people, and there are nearly 500,000 Xuan troops stationed in Cheongju and Fuhugang!

Only Xiaobao understands that Yu Xuan can not only mobilize the army, but even very likely, he can control Emperor Yin! This person is simply unfathomable, not only his cultivation, but also his scheming, which is terrifying!

The purpose of his transfer of these 200,000 troops, Xiao Bao can also guess, it is to give it to Xuan Jun to kill! Since you like to improve in battle, then I will fulfill you and keep you fighting... I'll take back everything that belongs to me from you, Xuanbao, you wait..."

A chilling sense of fear hit Xiao Bao, could it be that Yu Xuan had really lost his heart to such an extent, treating human life as a mustard, and 200,000 human lives could be sacrificed in his hands at will, just a bunch of sacrifices for him to achieve his goals!

Xiaobao turned around, looked at Xianyang and said, "Marshal, since the Yin army has come, what are you going to do?"

Xian Yang turned to look at Qingzhou City in the distance, the dilapidated houses and desolate streets, shook his head slightly, and said to Xiaobao: "I plan to let the 200,000 Xuan army advance for a hundred miles and fight them in the barren mountains on the outskirts!"

"Abandon the city and don't defend it, there are many soldiers and don't use it, the marshal's move doesn't seem to be clever, it must be a backhand!" Shi Wuce looked at Xianyang with a slight smile on the side, this pair of old partners knew each other well, and there was a tacit understanding that didn't need to be explained.

Xianyang laughed, nodded and looked at Shi Wuce and said: "Those who know me, the military advisor is also! Fighting against Pan Dayin's soldiers is just a blindfold, my real target is Nanping!"

Nanping is east of Huoyun Mountain and is the real hinterland of the Central Plains. The Xuanjun went around the Central Plains half a circle from east to west, fighting a border war, where it was not easy to transfer troops, and the terrain was complicated, so it was a more appropriate tactic for the relatively weak Xuanjun.

According to the original plan, the Xuan army had to fight until the Panlong River before advancing eastward, so that they could let go of their hands and feet when they fought, and they didn't have to worry about being flanked from front to back!

However, Xianyang is now going to occupy Nanping, which is to bite directly on the stomach of the Yin Dynasty, which is enough to make Yinhu hurt for a while, but it is also quite dangerous, it is very easy to transfer troops to the hinterland of the Central Plains.

However, Xiaobao was also very interested in this idea of the fairy sheep, and smiled at him and said, "Do you want to prick a needle in Yinhu's stomach?"

Xianyang took a deep breath, looked at Xiaobao and shook his head, but also nodded, and said in a deep voice: "My real purpose is to grab food!"
