One of the twenty-four solar terms, white dew, just passed.

Liaonan, which should have been a bumper harvest, is depressed everywhere.

It rained all day in May and June, nearly two months.

Crops were devastated.

The price of grain has increased dramatically, reaching one tael or two cents per bucket of rice.

This has brought about a bigger and more serious crisis for the people, who are already living in extreme difficulty.

Silence, silence, do not explode in silence, die in silence.

The desperate people rose up one after another.

For a time, the entire Liaodong, whether it was the Ming Dynasty or the Later Jin, was full of beacons.

Specific to the Golden State.

I don't know who told the hungry people and bandits that there was a huge amount of food hoarded in the city of Jinzhou, and there were less than a hundred soldiers guarding the city.

This made the hungry people and bandits who were crazy to the point of starvation combine a force and began to assemble towards Jinzhou City, preparing to break through the city and enter the city to grab food.

In fact, there is not much grain in the city of Golden State.

These grains were allocated to Jinzhou by Wang Huazhen, but because the quality was not good and the quantity was not much, Yang Chengying was too lazy to waste manpower to transport them, so they were stored in Jinzhou City.

As for the defenders of the city, there were three hundred.

There are Liaoyang and other three guards in the north, so don't worry about Houjin calling immediately.

Jinzhou City is a long distance from Port Arthur, which is not conducive to the transshipment and dispatch of grain.

Yang Chengying only left 300 people to defend the city, and the rest of the troops moved with him to the center of Jinzhou.

The power of rumors is very terrifying.

On the 15th day of August in the first year of the Apocalypse, less than ten days after Yang Chengying sent You Shihun away, the poor hungry people launched an attack on Jinzhou City.

These hungry people who couldn't walk exploded with powerful energy under the stimulus of survival.

They carried long engineering ladders, weapons that were too rudimentary to be considered weapons, and tattered tables, chairs and benches above their heads, and attacked the city with great force.

Jinzhou City is like a stone in the torrent, and it has been hit by a huge impact.

The news reached the Golden State Central Left Institute.

Yang Chengying, who was worried about raising relief food, was shocked.

"What's going on?"

Yang Cheng hurriedly asked.

"Back to my lord, Jinzhou City is not in danger. The wealthy merchants in the city organized their families to go to the city to assist in the defense, begging the adults to send troops to rescue them as soon as possible. ”

The messenger sent to Jinzhou City for help dragged his tired body and said weakly.

"You go down and rest first, and I'll send reinforcements."

After Yang Chengying finished speaking, he ordered his subordinates to help him out.

Bang.

Smack!

Yang Chengying overturned the table directly.

"Don't be angry, my lord, this is obviously an organization with a heart, even if my lord wants to deal with the Golden State guard, he will have to wait until the trouble subsides."

Ning Wan comforted me on the side.

"This is just the appearance, the root of the problem is still in my hands, I have no food and no money, and I have to resettle a huge number of people."

As soon as Yang Chengying mentioned this, he couldn't help but be very dissatisfied with the dignitaries represented by You Shihun.

In order to get rid of You Shihun, Yang Chengying spent a lot of money, except for a small amount of grain for the army, there was no food in stock.

Port Arthur has just been recaptured for a few days, and it has not yet had time to make a fortune.

"Placement is all about later."

Ning Wan persuaded me, "The first goal is to keep Jinzhou City. Now Liaodong is full of beacons, and the main cities under the rule of the Ming Dynasty are in the hands of the imperial court. ”

"But let me raise a knife against the people, it will shake the hearts of the army and the people!"

Yang Chengying sat on the chair and kept rubbing his temples with his hands, thinking about countermeasures.

Yang Chengying, who has always been resolute, hesitated at this time.

Ning Wan looked at it and said anxiously: "My lord, when you are constantly in turmoil, you must not be able to distinguish the priority of the matter. Wang Huazhen can keep an eye on you in Liaoyang! ”

"No! I have always advocated 'guarding the Liao land with Liao soldiers and raising the Liao people with Liao soil', how can I do it to my own people. ”

Yang Chengying got up, walked to the window, and turned his back to Ning Wan.

"Your Excellency!"

Ning Wan I yelled at Yang Chengying's back: "Indecisiveness is self-defeating!" ”

Yang Chengying was unmoved, he clasped his arms and looked at the sky in the distance.

There must be a way to do both, there must be! Yang Chengying meditated.

At this time, Luo Sanjie rushed in.

As soon as he entered the door, he asked, "Jinzhou City is in an emergency, why don't you move?" ”

Ning Wan glanced at Luo Sanjie, meaning that Yang Chengying hadn't made a decision yet.

Luo Sanjie turned to look at Yang Chengying who was standing in front of the window, wanting to open his mouth but feeling that it would disturb him, and swallowed back the words when they came to his mouth.

At this time, Yang Chengying was trying to recall what he knew and learned, hoping to find a suitable solution from the past history.

There must be organizers for actions like this, but how do you catch them?

If you gather a large army to attack, it is impossible to take chestnuts from the fire and not burn your hands.

Whether it is to cause the loss of soldiers or to let the people suffer from soldiers, they do not want to see it.

How do you do both?

The speed of support must be fast, otherwise Jinzhou will definitely break through, it is not a tall city wall like Liaoyang.

Yang Chengying thought about it, couldn't think of the best of both worlds, and paced back and forth in the main hall.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, fast? Why does it have to be fast!

Following this line of thought, Yang Cheng should have a countermeasure.

"Pass on Su Xiaojing, Xu Shang, and ask Shen De's subordinates to see me in the future!"

Yang Chengying ordered loudly.

"Yes."

The herald moved.

Yang Chengying sat back in his place, and the table case and the documents on it were restored to their original state by the Shang Kejin brothers.

Moments later, Shen Degong, Su Xiaojing, Xu Shang and other generals arrived one after another.

"The city of Golden State is in danger of being breached, and I must rush to the aid of Golden State. The matter here will be handed over to Luo Sanjie and Mr. Ning. Yang Chengying ordered.

"Yes."

Luo Sanjie and Ning finished my line.

"Uncle Shen led 2,000 sailors and Xu Shang led 2,500 soldiers from the left and center, quickly assembled, and set off tomorrow."

"Understood."

"Su Xiaojing led the Tiger Brigade as the vanguard, and there were many torches along the way, which was convenient for our army to march at night."

"Yes."

"The remaining soldiers and horses are under the command of Luo Sanjie, guarding the Zhongzuo Station and Port Arthur."

"Yes."

Everything else is fine, and I don't understand the behavior of the Tiger Brigade Army.

"The way to use troops lies in the combination of Qi Zheng, the soldiers of Jinzhou City are defending the city and fighting, and the adults should lead a small number of soldiers to attack this group of Diao people day and night."

"They are not trained, and dealing with them is as simple as dusting them off."

I'll give you advice.

"This is a means against the enemy, not against the people."

After Yang Chengying finished explaining, he turned his head and told Su Xiaojing: "Listen, the momentum should be as big as possible, we don't need to hide our tracks." ”

"Order!" Su Xiaojing hugged his fists.

Yang Chengying got up: "Generals." ”

"Yes."

The crowd responded.

"Move fast, whoever dares to be slow, military law is engaged!"

"Order."

Despite all kinds of objections, they faithfully carried out the order.

The next day, Yang Chengying rode a horse, surrounded by guards, and appeared in front of the soldiers.

"Soldiers, this battle is different from usual, not about destroying the enemy but about subduing it. You follow me in a big stride to attack, and a big step to retreat. ”

Yang Chengying waved his hand, "Let's go!" ”
