Dong Yi has a headache now.

Chen Ping guessed correctly, Zhang Han not only sent Sima Xin to lead an army of 100,000 people south to outflank him.

At the same time, Dong Yi was given 70,000 people to cross the river and go north.

The tactical purpose is to collect food and grass for the army and stabilize the city.

The strategic purpose is to clean up the hinterland of the Central Plains and prepare to go north to wipe out the remnants of the Six Kingdoms after defeating Wang Buxing.

Although Zhang Han has heard many people talk about the legendary story of Wang Buxu.

But he still didn't care much about Wang Buxu.

He is just a small soldier who has been an ordinary soldier for several years. It is only because of luck that he is what he is today.

Apart from anything else, it is said that the king always has more than 100,000 soldiers. Well, so what if he has 200,000?

An army of 400,000 people is attacking from the front, and an army of 100,000 people is attacking from the side and behind. How can you hold on if you are not hungry?

Have you ever seen such a big scene?

In a war of this scale, don't you feel panic when you are commanding it?

Let me ask you, are you afraid?

Of course, it would be a lie to say that we don’t take it seriously at all.

After all, of the 570,000-strong army, Zhang Han only sent out 70,000 to do other things. In fact, it was not considered to be doing anything else. The main purpose was to collect grain and fodder and do other things on the way. It was not considered to be purely unprofessional.

In addition, Zhang Han himself brought some food and grass. After hearing that Xingyang fell, he got some supplies from Guanzhong.

Zhang Han knew very well that he could no longer get supplies from Guanzhong, and he had to fight to support the war and recapture Xingyang and Aocang.

'boom!'

Dong Yi was very angry and kicked the door hard. The solid wooden door began to shake, but it did not fall down in the end.

"How many times has this happened? How many times has this happened?" Dong Yi looked at his subordinates fiercely.

"This is the sixth time..."

"What do I really want you to do for food? Ah? Tell me, what else do you do besides eating?" No matter how he scolded him, Dong Yi still felt that he could not calm down his anger.

This battle was so frustrating that the people who fought wanted to die.

Are there many casualties?

It was not big at all. After arriving north of the river, the total loss was less than 3,000 people.

This refers to soldiers, civilians and so on, there are many, there are ten thousand people.

But they have no shortage of civilian men, they can just recruit them at any time.

But the most distressing thing is, food and grass! Food and grass...

"Captain, brothers, there is really nothing we can do..."

"You have no choice but to think about it. Do you still think about it?" Dong Yi became more and more angry as he listened.

He is a serious military commander, different from that fake military commander Sima Xin.

Of course, Dong Yi didn't know that Sima Xin's army was gone.

What if the melon seeds on Zhang Han's head rotated and jumped at that time, allowing Dong Yi to go south and Sima Xin to go north.

It’s hard to say what the situation will be like in the north, but at least the king in the south won’t be able to defeat it so easily if he’s not hungry. No matter what, two thousand people will have to die to defeat it.

"Captain, we don't have enough troops. Food and grass are forcibly collected from each household and sent to the county in units of villages. They only take action on the way. We transport them out from the county. If there are more troops to escort, they will

If there are fewer, they will appear suddenly. We can't send a thousand troops to protect every village transporting food to the county, right?"

"Be a bait and lure them out!" Dong Yi said fiercely.

So far, they have lost almost 300,000 shi of food. They haven't even seen the shadow of the enemy. Do you think they are aggrieved or not?

And the most shameless thing is that these people are very thieves.

Seeing that there are more escort troops, they will make sure not to let out a single fart. If large-scale transportation cannot be carried out, then we will do it from below.

As I said just now, we can't send heavy troops to each village to escort food, right?

They don't have that many troops, and besides, they have other tasks.

It cannot be delayed for too long.

Of course, what annoys Dong Yi the most is that these people are still too much of a thieves.

During each robbery, only a small amount of food was taken away, and the rest was either burned or hidden somewhere, so that no trace of it could be found.

I worked so hard and shamelessly to collect more than 500,000 shi of food, but in less than ten days, these people killed 300,000 shi.

Excluding your own food, you just sent less than 200,000 stones of food and grass to the 400,000-strong army?

How to fight this battle?

Slap, spank...

…

In a hidden forest.

The surroundings were densely packed with people.

Peng Yue, the little fool, has now changed his life from a fake military prince to a real military prince.

Although he already has more than 2,000 men under his command, he is still a military prince.

Peng Yue has never boasted in front of others about being an official after recruiting as many people as possible. This kind of high-level arrogance is not something he can brag about.

Of course, the most important thing is that now he is also a regular soldier.

That's right, I was swindling around in the name of Wang Buxu, but I didn't expect that Wang Buxu's people would come to my door just after I started.

resist?

Shit!

They came out just to seek refuge with the king.

The reason why I didn’t go to Wang Bu Xing immediately was because I wanted to make some achievements before going, so that my life would be easier by then.

Now they came to the door and listed everything they had done. Peng Yue was so frightened that he almost peed his pants on the spot.

Later, when I thought about it carefully, taking refuge now is the same as taking refuge in the future. And if you take refuge in the future, how will your current military exploits be calculated?

After much thought, Peng Yue agreed.

Then he followed Wang Buxu's instructions and continued to commit evil acts north of the river. No, he was setting off a prairie fire of rebellion against the Qin Dynasty.

"Marquis Peng Jun, isn't it a pity that we burned so much food?"

"That's right, it's hundreds of thousands of dan, which is enough for us to eat for many years!"

"..."

Everyone was talking to each other, and they didn't feel embarrassed about carrying out a sneak attack, but felt very excited.

Those who were beaten were all rookies, and whoever was unhappy was a fool, but burning so much food made people feel bad.

"You guys know nothing. What should we do if we don't burn the food? Can we transport it back or what? When we transport it back, you won't be afraid of being discovered by them? There are tens of thousands of people on the other side. There is only one mouthful to eat. He doesn't feel comfortable alive.

"?" Peng Yue looked at everyone with disdain.

"Besides, the mission given to us by the young master is to prevent the grain from the north bank of the river from being transported to the south bank as much as possible. We just don't let him transport it, and we don't care if it is burned or buried. The credit will be yours by then."

Peng Yue looked at a quiet man in obviously different clothes and asked with embarrassment: "Mr. Chen, how do you say that?"

Chen Li was a member of the scout force and knew a few words. After Peng Yue took refuge, Chen Li led five scouts to station here and followed them. One was responsible for delivering news, and the other was responsible for recording military exploits, so he was called by Peng Yue and others.

Chen envoy means the envoy sent by Wang Buxing.
