The army was stationed in Tianyang City, and set off after resting for three days. The detachments of the three armies marched towards the three cities at the same time. Set up camp and rest for the night, and the next morning come forward to call for battle.

At this point, Zhang Wenrong still didn't make a choice. She was extremely entangled in her heart and didn't know how to choose.

When the country suffers, the husband is responsible. No matter what grievances are insignificant in front of the country's righteousness.

Reason told her that Zhu Qinghong was an enemy. The feelings are very clear, Feng Han is not Mingjun.

His eyes are only conquest and plunder, and he does not care about the life or death of the people. The Zhang family will be wiped out, and the people are living in dire straits. Is it really good?

Zhu Qinghong will not wait for her to make a decision slowly, and will start a war when she says that she will start a war. The soldiers of Shengguo did not hesitate, and rode out one by one on leopards.

Both sides shouted and did not flinch.

Zhu Qinghong observed the opponent's strength and combat power, and found that Emperor Shengguo had something.

It was actually deployed in such a short period of time. No, maybe it was already laid out before going to the negotiations.

On the first day, there were casualties on both sides, and neither side was favored. The soldiers are brave and have to be respected even for the enemy.

At night, inside the tent.

Zhu Qinghong received the news that the situation of the battle between the three armies was similar. Shengguo seemed to have expected them to attack, and he was very well prepared.

Fang You'an and Su Rui were a little worried, and they might not be able to solve it quickly in this situation.

"That's a good point." Zhu Qinghong instructed the rear to transport grain and grass as soon as possible. It was decided to fight a protracted war.

The people of Shengguo have been living under the pressure of the emperor, and if they want to reduce the difficulty of winning the hearts and minds of the people, they must not use absolute force.

What does it mean to be lifeless in the city in hand? Extend the time of the war and show their wisdom and benevolence to the people of Shengguo to the greatest extent.

There is a good saying, those who win the hearts of the people win the world. The hearts of the people are towards them, and no matter how strong the emperor's army is, it will be defeated.

After deciding on the policy, the plan after that is as follows: spend time with the enemy. until they ran out of ammunition and food.

Regardless of whether the other party surrenders or is captured, the city is benevolent. In other words, when you get the next city, don't be in a hurry and move on.

The city was used as a base to raise the living standards of the people. Shengguo has no one to cultivate, and it will inevitably be unable to hold up first.

Shengguo wanted to fight, so they dragged it.

The people in the city finally lived a stable life, and naturally hated the Emperor Shengguo who provoked the war. Don't underestimate the power of the people, one person knows, it means many individuals know.

Morning and evening spread throughout the Shengguo.

Murder and heart, but that's it.

Zhu Qinghong's red lips hooked slightly: "To deal with Shengguo, boiling frogs in warm water is the best way." ”

She didn't hide it from Zhang Wenrong, and even invited them to discuss it together. Listening to the whole plan, Zhang Wenrong looked at Zhu Qinghong in shock.

A ploy to achieve the goal at the lowest cost. Not only did he drive a wedge between the emperor's army and the people, but he also won the hearts and minds of the people.

At that time, the people will beg her to ascend the throne. A bright monarch, a peaceful and prosperous world, who doesn't want it?

"So, we are not in a hurry to fight. Eat and drink well every day, and spend with them. Zhu Qinghong clicked on the simple map of Kaichengchi, "There is no food in the army, they will rob the people." Grab the complaints, grab the unbearable, it is difficult to guarantee that the city gate will not open by itself. ”

Su Rui in the video screen smiled: "If the news is released, you can receive food if you surrender to our army." You don't have to go hungry anymore......"

I didn't say the rest of the words, everyone understands it.

Zhu Qinghong was happy to hasten the demise of the Shengguo army: "Good idea. ”

Zhang Wenrong felt a chill for no reason.

Feng Han may be crazy, or he may be brutal, but he definitely does not have the scheming and heart of the person in front of him.

Those who don't know the truth are grateful to her, admiring, fearing, and impressed by her.

She is the real king.

The next day, the three armies were still in battle. But the fight was very perfunctory, and after a day's delay, he returned to the camp for dinner.

There is braised pork tonight!

Shengguo's city defender frowned, and he had a bad premonition. Sure enough, the other party never did his best for the next few days. Come to the point, go to the point.

After being trapped for half a month, the food in the army gradually bottomed out. The soldiers could not go hungry, so they had to ask the people for it.

However, the tepid war continues. From the beginning, it was solicited from the people and promised to be returned.

to the direct solicitation, and finally to grab it. The number of people dying of starvation is increasing every day. They looked at the soldiers with a look that ranged from trust to fear to hatred.

News came out of nowhere that the army outside the city was eating big every day. Anyone who surrenders will receive food and will not go hungry in the future.

The people did not believe at first, until their families starved to death, and the soldiers went into the house and smashed things in search of food.

The long-suppressed hatred finally broke out.

The first man stabbed a soldier to death with all his might, and then there was a second, a third......

One evening, a man with chapped lips drugged his gruel. The soldiers who drank it all foamed at the mouth and fell silently.

The guy laughed, laughed and cried. He was a citizen of the city, and he was temporarily called to cook for the team.

Save a few dollars a month and take it all home for your younger siblings. Who would have thought that he finally found time to go back a few days ago. But the bodies of his younger brothers and sisters were found, and the house was smashed to pieces, leaving not a single grain of food.

The neighbor poked his head out and told him the truth.

The two children are in their teens, with little strength, and no adult to support them. Those soldiers came to smash and loot things, and there was no way to do it.

The girl was even almost humiliated. It's just that the soldier didn't have a weight in his hands and killed the person first.

The neighbors wanted to bury the two babies, but now they can't get out of the city, and they may be eaten by demons if they are buried in the soil.

I can only put it aside for the time being, and wait for the guy to come back and decide what to do.

The man's eyes suddenly turned red, and he carried the bodies of his younger brothers and sisters to the courtyard and burned them.

From this day on, he was extremely resentful.

He is not the only man in the army, and if he is discovered, the consequences will be unimaginable. The gang went into hiding, secretly contacting the people who hated the soldiers.

He gathered the other guys, and when the time was ripe, he finally started on this day.

Most of the soldiers were poisoned and died.

The people rushed into the barracks with their poles, hoes, and other objects, and tore them up with the remaining soldiers.

They are full of hatred and viciousness. If you die, you have to pull a few more pads.

Lonely and brave, ushered in victory.

Many of the soldiers saw that the tide was gone, and they fled. Some were caught and beaten to death. The people vented their anger and killed people, and they burst into tears.

Because they know that even if they kill all the soldiers. Dead loved ones can't come back, never again.

The sky was bright.

When the army appeared on time and saw the gates of the city wide open, a dozen people fell on their knees and showed their willingness to submit.

The soldiers looked at each other and immediately sent someone back to report it. Hearing the news, Zhu Qinghong was not surprised.

She smiled, and Zhang Wenrong followed behind.

City gates.

Zhu Qinghong walked in front of the people: "Raise your head." ”

They did not dare to disobey, and they were nervous and fearful to raise their heads.

A woman like a fairy descending from the earth in a picture stood in front of her, smiling shallowly.

"You have great courage, and I agree with your submission." Zhu Qinghong bypassed the people and stepped into the city, "When the army enters the city, the people must not be harassed." It was decreed that anyone who would be obedient should receive food. I never let my people go hungry. ”

In a word, the people can't control their emotions. Several people wept bitterly, and some covered their mouths to suppress their weeping.

Zhang Wenrong looked at them, not feeling good in his heart. It turned out that the people didn't care whether the emperor was male or female, as long as they could give them a good life.

Gao Chen and Yingcai stepped forward to help the leading man. Yingcai said with a smile: "Please inform everyone, come and get food." ”

The two were well-dressed, and the man wiped the tears on his face and was uneasy. Gao Chen said gently: "You take us into the city first." ”

The man nodded hurriedly and invited them into the city.

The people followed, and their hearts were worried.

Is there really food?

There is a general's palace in the city.

Zhu Qinghong was blocked when he entered. As soon as she raised her hand, all the guards died under the knife.

The general came forward to reprimand and was killed on the spot.

Zhu Qinghong sat in the main hall and clicked on the phone to inquire about the situation in the other two cities. Fang You'an's side was almost hot. Su Rui's side is making very fast progress and has entered the reconstruction stage. The plan went well.

Zhu Qinghong turned off the call with satisfaction.

At this time, the soldiers entered the city and did not disturb the people. The people cowered and ducked, but nothing happened.

The soldiers took over the general's palace in full, dragged the corpses down and washed the ground. Gao Chen and Yingcai entered the house, followed by the man and a few people.

Gao Chen arched his hand: "Your Majesty, the matter of distributing food has been released." Weichen suggested boiling it into porridge, which is better than sending food directly. ”

"Hmm. You can do it. Zhu Qinghong raised his eyes and looked at the man, "What's your name?" What for? ”

The man immediately knelt down and kowtowed: "The grass people have been honored." He was a man in the barracks. ”

"Very good." Zhu Qinghong smiled, "It's up to you to take someone to make porridge." Let's take it easy, don't break your belly. Let's go down. ”

"Yes." Zeng Rongen stood up and bowed back.

Gao Chen and Yingcai also bowed and withdrew. Zeng Rongen went with Yingcai to receive rice and cook porridge on the stove.

The porridge shed is located outside the general's mansion, with three cauldrons.

He opened the sack and was stunned to see the plump rice inside.

"Girl, did we get the wrong one?" Zeng Rongen had never seen rice so white. There seems to be a fragrance in the raw, too.

"Not wrong. Cook it. Ying Cai added water to the pot, "Cook a little thicker." Limited to two bowls per person. You've been hungry for too long, and you'll break your belly if you eat too much. There is food, and it will be a long time to come. From tomorrow, you will all receive food when you come to work. ”

Several people who were called by Zeng Rongen to help exclaimed. "Really? Can we get this food? ”

"Of course." Ying Cai covered the pot, "The people of our country, every household eats rice. The fields were filled with ears of rice, and the barns were stuffed to the brim. I guarantee that you will not be able to eat it for the rest of your life. Follow Your Majesty, and you will never go hungry. ”

Their eyes are full of envy and yearning.

Yingcai smiled slightly, and Zhang Luo brought the bowl.

Zeng Rongen burned the fire to cook porridge, and couldn't help shedding a tear. If my younger siblings were still alive, they would be able to eat such good things. He hurriedly wiped away his tears and worked hard.

Pour the rice into the pot, stir and pour in the appropriate amount of salt. When the water boils again, the aroma of rice gradually emerges.

More and more people gathered around, and they craned their necks to stare at the pot, eager to eat immediately.

Yingcai asked everyone to line up, take a bowl first and then serve porridge, and each person is limited to two bowls. Everyone hurriedly lined up, and the waiting period was the hardest.

The aroma of the porridge became stronger and stronger, and the hunger of the whole body was triggered. Many people couldn't stand it and squatted down holding their stomachs. Even so, I still looked up at the pot and waited for the porridge to be good soon.

When the lid was lifted, the first person in line immediately stepped forward and stretched out the bowl.
