"I don't know when the grain and grass will arrive. The grain and grass in Songshan county will last ten days at most. It's still the situation that the garrison tightens their belts and the soldiers of the Department of poisonous insects gnaw at the head of the nest..."

listening to Mo sang and Miao Youfang talking about how to become the number one scholar after the war, Xu Erlang was thinking about the grain and grass.

The soldiers of Li Gu department and the flying beast army of Xin Gu Department directly destroyed Songshan county.

Let's not talk about flying beasts. It's understandable that they have a big appetite. But the clansmen of the Li Gu tribe made the guards of Songshan county "amazing".

The defenders are eating with bowls in their hands, while the soldiers in the Department of Li Gu are eating with rice buckets beside them.

The defenders ate three meals a day in wartime and two in peacetime.

The soldiers of Li Gu Department eat four meals a day and five meals in wartime.

Originally, Xu Erlang was psychologically prepared. After all, Lina and Ling Yin were numb on their mother's scalp, and the Xu family is now very rich.

Besides, there are 400 soldiers from the Department of Li Gu.

However, Xu Erlang still underestimated the amount of meals of the soldiers in the Department of Li Gu. It is not accurate for him to use Lina and Lingyin's usual amount of meals as a reference.

Because the stupid sister and her stupid master, on weekdays, only laugh, no consumption.

How can it compare with a soldier who licks blood with a knife?

"As long as I get food and grass, I can always keep Songshan county." Xu Xinnian's secret way.

Dafeng's artillery and crossbow are responsible for firepower coverage. The flying beast army of Xingu Department throws blows from high altitude. The corpse control personnel of Shigu department control the death fighters who are not afraid of life and death. The people of dark Gu department are responsible for assassination.

The Li Gu department is responsible for cleaning up the enemy troops who climb up to the top of the city.

Combined with Xu Erlang's command ability, Songshan county is as solid as gold.

Now the rebels outside the city, 9000 elite and 20000 miscellaneous troops, have changed their strategy from siege to siege, trying to make Songshan county the second Wan county.

It is worth mentioning that the Zapai army is a militia composed of the common people, consisting of refugees and young soldiers who were forced into the army. The leader is the people in the Jianghu recruited by the Yunzhou rebels.

"Last time I heard Erlang say that as long as the Spring Festival is over, the state of Qingzhou will get better?"

Miao Youfang has two purposes, playing chess and chatting. He feels that he is really a genius.

"The situation in the whole Central Plains will get better. The cold disaster is the main reason, followed by the lack of food, which leads to the present chaotic situation. Once spring begins, first of all, the cold can no longer threaten the people. "

Holding a book, Xu cijiu put half eaten wowowotou on the table and saved some food, saying: "secondly, farming is the instinct of the people. Only in spring can autumn harvest be achieved. Many refugees will choose to pick up hoes again. As long as the imperial court takes out the abandoned land and redistributes it, a large part of them will be solved.

"But at that time, there must be innumerable squires and nobles taking advantage of the opportunity to annex the land and not leave a way for the common people. It depends on whether emperor Yongxing has enough courage."

At this point, he wrinkled his beautiful eyebrows. That new gentleman is good at everything, but he has no courage and is more than conservative.

You can't count on doing great things.

If emperor Yongxing could "sacrifice" the gentry, nobles and powerful landlords in secret according to his plan, the number of people who annex land after the spring festival would drop sharply.

"What if we still can't keep it after the Spring Festival?"

Miao Youfang used to argue: "will you die in Songshan County, or run away?"

Mo sangting raised his head:

"the soldiers of liguu department will not escape. If I die in the Central Plains, remember to help me send my bones back to southern Xinjiang and give them to my father."

Miao Youfang looks at Xu Erlang again, and the latter ponders and says, "listen to heaven's destiny as much as you can. If you really have to die, Xu, as a scholar, can sacrifice his life for righteousness. Brother Miao, what about you? "

"How can I die in battle? I want to be a great Xia in the future. Well, if there is such a day, remember to engrave "great Xia" on my tombstone. Then say sorry to Xu Yinluo for me. "

Miao Youfang thought about it and said, "by the way, I have to burn some paper maids for me every year. Even if I go to hell, I want to sleep with women. "

Xu cijiu shakes his head, keeps his eyes on the book of war, and reaches for the Wowotou. As a result, he grabs nothing.

Huh? As soon as he looked at it, the table was empty. Then he looked up again and saw that Mo sang chewed two mouthfuls and swallowed his head. Then he pretended that nothing had happened and played chess with Miao Youfang seriously.

Cheng Bi Niang's displeasure...... Xu Xinnian scolded secretly, but he was not in mood on the surface, and said:

"brother Mo sang, when I see you, I always think of your sister."

Mo sang, with dark skin, looked back blankly and said:

"what do you say?"

He knew that Xu Xinnian was Xu Yinluo's younger brother, and that Lina had been staying in the Xu family for more than half a year.

Xu Erlang's face is sincere:

"brother Mo sang and Lina are pure people, who carry forward" food is the essence of the people "incisively and vividly. If all the people in the world could be like your brothers and sisters, Kyushu would have been ruled by nothing, and there would not have been so many wars. "Mo sang didn't expect that he and his sister could get Xu Xinnian, the two winners. He was very happy and said with a smile:

"Mr. Xu is flattered. He is stupid and can't afford it. But it's Lina. My father always praises her for being smart when she was young. "

Does your father have any misunderstanding about "being smart when you are young".

Miao Youfang thinks that Xu Erlang has something to say, but he has no evidence.

When talking about Lina, Mo sang said: "I've been in the war these days. You're all in the Central Plains. Do you know my sister Lina's nickname in the Central Plains?" Make complaints about

... Xu Erlang's unconscious heart Tucao.

Miao make complaints about Lina's lack of involvement in Tucao, or he can make complaints about the "ugliest sister-in-law" in a low level of desire to survive. Now it is probably already around Lina to launch a Tucao rap.

"What nickname?"

Miao Youfang takes advantage of Mo Sang's turning to look at Xu Erlang, and secretly changes a chess piece with his power.

Mo sang listened to his chest, gathered on the tip of his tongue, and spit out: "Feiyan nvxia!"

"What?"

Xu Erlang raised his head in amazement.

Miao Youfang stares at Mo sang.

Mo Sang was very satisfied with their gaping expression and held her head up:

"Lina has been in the Jianghu for half a year, and she is deeply loved by you people in the Central Plains. She is known as the flying swallow heroine."

Xu cijiu is worthy of being a scholar. He looks as usual and says slowly:

"who told you that?"

"Lina said it herself." So mosan replied.

Just as Miao Youfang was about to tear it down, he saw Xu Erlang give him a wink and asked: "what's the matter?"

Xu cijiu hasn't mastered the skill of transmitting sound into the secret yet, so he just shakes his head slightly.

I see. Erlang's meaning is to wait for Mo sang to publicize, and then watch his jokes. Now it's not ready, and the excitement is not big enough.

All of a sudden, I thought of the son.

Let him know after the war, or it will affect his fighting spirit and morale..... Xu Erlang thought.

At this time, the roar of the black scale flying beast came, and then the wind broke out. Three people in the urn knew that there was a flying beast army landing at the head of the city.

A moment later, the sound of footsteps in a hurry from far to near, a heart bug master wearing rattan beetles ran in and said something to mosang in southern Xinjiang language.

Miao Youfang and Xu Erlang look at Mo sang. The latter springs up and speaks more and more fluent Central Plains Mandarin: "the rebels ten miles away will join the reinforcements and come this way."

...

Guo county.

The Qingzhou army, which was stationed in Dongling City, lost 60% of its soldiers after a half month field battle with the Yunzhou rebels. Finally, it was unable to support itself. It withdrew from the boundary of Dongling city and settled in the neighboring Guo county.

Their enemies were the "black armour" and "green Python" two elite armies led by Ji Xuan, plus 3000 miscellaneous troops.

The black armour army was composed of 600 heavy cavalry and 2300 light cavalry.

Green Python is 4000 elite soldiers, equipped with 80 guns, 30 bed crossbows, and 2000 fireguns and crossbows.

Such a well-equipped and valiant division, of course, is not what the Qingzhou army can contend with.

Even though sun Xuanji brought a large number of firearms and equipment before he went to Qingzhou, it turns out that the military strength of Qingzhou garrison is far less than that of Yunzhou's elite troops.

Qingzhou army is not the trump card of Dafeng army, but one of the elite rebel troops.

In terms of middle-level combat power, Dongling's garrison is still inferior to Ji Xuan's elite troops.

The only one who can pull back the situation is sun Xuanji, the third class Warlock.

It's true that the Warlock's personal combat power is far less than that of the martial arts of the same level, but in terms of destructive power, the warlock ranks second, and no one dares to rank first.

Yuan HUFA, with thick white hair, walked at the head of the city and said to everyone:

"ten thousand demon Kingdom has been rebuilt."

Dongling army has been familiar with this demon ally for a long time, and they love and hate him. What they love is his strong fighting power and reliable comrades in arms.

What I hate is that this comrade in arms will "stab" you anytime and anywhere.

Early this morning, the news of Nanyao's restoration came back to Qingzhou. Yuan HUFA was overjoyed and stood at the head of the city, looking up to the sky and crying to express his joy.

And then we'll talk about it.

"Congratulations to our great Allies."

A centurion looked at Yuan HUFA, who came to him, with a warm smile.

Yuan HUFA looked at him with an unhappy face and said, "your heart tells me: is this dead monkey finished?"

"..." the centurion's face suddenly turned red. He didn't know whether to explain or not. He was embarrassed and wanted to leave without permission.Fortunately, Yuan didn't make trouble for him. He went far and announced the good news to other defenders.

"Alas

The centurion looked at Yuan's back and sighed.

I don't know if Guo county can hold on and how long it can hold on. There is no time to collect the dead brothers in the field.

Just then, there was a loud noise in the sky, and a red light burst in the sky.

This is the signal of the enemy's attack, and the person who sent the signal was sun Xuanji, who came to watch the enemy with the technique of looking at Qi, in the floating battery above Guo county.

...

Wanjun.

Count up, Wan county has been surrounded for a month.

During this period, the rebels attacked the city dozens of times intermittently. The Qingzhou chief envoy dispatched troops and sent troops to support them many times, but they were eaten up by the Yunzhou army.

It was not until the flying beast army of the heart poison Department came that the decline was reversed.

But for the garrison stationed in Wan County, fatigue has gone deep into the bone marrow, and they are the best people to fight. They are also eager to end this beast like struggle as soon as possible.

For Zhang Shen, who has lived in seclusion for more than 20 years, it is a great shame that he was forced into such a predicament in the first battle.

Although he was alone and helpless, he kept Wan county to the present, which is not worthy of his reputation.

Zhang Shen climbed up to the top of the city and looked around. The city wall was full of holes, scorch marks, and cracks. In some places, a gap was even opened. The women's wall was completely destroyed, just like a man whose teeth were broken.

More than half of the defenders were killed and wounded, and the militia were forcibly recruited. Now the militia are also killed and wounded.

The cloud of war hung over the small city.

In the blue sky, a giant animal flapped its wings and flew to Wanjun.

The giant beast glides and lands slowly at the head of the city. The heart poison master on his back says to Zhang Shen:

"thirty miles to the south, there are a large number of enemy troops approaching."

After the flying beast army came to help, Zhang Shen, who had learned Nanjiang language for a few days, nodded his head solemnly and said with a fluent Nanjiang accent:

"I know."

He leaned to the South and said slowly:

"I can look thirty miles."

As the voice fell, his vision changed dramatically, the surrounding scenery disappeared, and his visual angle was infinitely extended to 30 miles away.

Line of sight, long can not see the end of the enemy troops slowly, banners strong.

The flag flew in the wind and spread out, revealing the word "Qi".

Zhang Shen gave a "Hey", drew back his eyes, and whispered to himself:

"soldiers to soldiers, generals to generals, this Guisun finally came."

...

Dongling city.

Dressed in white as snow, Xu Pingfeng, with a pot of wine in his hand, ascended to the sky and came to the sea of clouds.

The golden light followed and turned into a Bodhisattva, standing beside Xu Pingfeng.

Two people opposite, white hair, white clothes, white beard of the prison, has been waiting for a long time.

"Supervisor."

Xu Pingfeng half fly half float between the two sides, sit on the ground in the sea of clouds, big sleeve wave, body in front of a chessboard, two boxes of pieces.

"I remember that when I learned with you, every three days we would play chess. I never won."

in the tone of "twenty years, I have been away from Pingzheng for a whole year."

PS: at the end of the month, ask for a monthly ticket. The wrong words should be changed first and then corrected.
