When Yang Hong saw that Yan Xiang had guessed it, his chest straightened up and he said loudly: "Yes! This plan is exactly what I dedicated to the lord! How about it?" Yang Hong was also confident. Anyway, he didn't think there was anything wrong with his plan.
On the contrary, if this strategy can increase the lord's military rations, that would be the best!
"You! You! You!" Yan Xiang was so angry at Yang Hong's words that his whole body was shaking. He pointed at Yang Hong and almost lost his breath. Finally, he choked out: "Shu Zi! You ruined the master's important affairs! No!"
I have to go find the lord immediately! I can’t let the lord’s great cause be ruined in the hands of sycophants like you!” After saying that, Yan Xiang ignored Yang Hong, turned around and rushed towards the big tent.
Yang Hong stood there, looking at Yan Xiang's back and sneering. He was not worried at all that his lord would be persuaded by Yan Xiang. After the previous trouble, his lord secretly hated Yan Xiang. If it was Yan Xiang,
After hiding for a few days, when the lord's anger subsides, maybe the lord can still treat him. But now that Yan Xiang is running to pick out the lord's faults, as long as he is not killed by the lord on the spot, it is considered a good thing!
Sure enough, before Yang Hong could reach the tent, he heard Yuan Shu's roar coming from the tent: "Get out! I told you I don't want to see you again! Someone's coming! Don't give it to me yet!"
Drag this madman out!" It seems that although Yuan Shu is furious, he still maintains basic sobriety. After all, Yan Xiang is also a well-known counselor. If he is killed, it will not be good for Yuan Shu's reputation.
But Yuan Shu's mercy did not let Yan Xiang know whether to advance or retreat. Instead, he continued to persuade: "Lord! You must not do this! If you rob the food of the people of Nanyang! Then in the hearts of the people of Nanyang, lord
His reputation has plummeted! Even if my lord takes over Nanyang City in the future, it will only be an empty city!"
"Pull out! Pull out!" Yuan Shu was not moved at all, but continued to urge the soldiers to drag Yan Xiang out. Standing outside the tent, Yang Hong saw two sturdy sergeants holding up the disheveled Yan.
Yan Xiang was dragged out of Yuan Shu's tent. But Yan Xiang still refused to give up, still struggling and shouting loudly.
Seeing Yan Xiang being dragged away, Yang Hong sneered sarcastically, but when he turned around, the sneer on Yang Hong's face immediately turned into a humble smile. With this smile, Yang Hong walked quickly
Walked into the big tent. Inside the big tent, Yuan Shu was still losing his temper, jumping and yelling: "This Yan Xiang! He is simply ignorant! Ignorant of good and evil! Humph! Even if those untouchables are dissatisfied with me, they will
What can I do? They are just a bunch of untouchables! As long as I can capture Nanyang City, am I still afraid that there will be no one left?"
"Lord, calm down!" When Yang Hong saw it, he quickly stepped forward to comfort him and said with a smile: "My lord, you don't have to be like Yan Xiang! Why should you be so angry for him! By the way! Lord! Ji Ling and Chen Ji have already taken the lead.
The troops have set off! I believe there will be news in the next few days! If it goes well, it will be able to bring enough food and grass to support the army for two to three months!"
After all, Nanyang is a major grain-producing county in Jingzhou. The people only handed over part of the grain produced in Nanyang as tax, which was able to feed the Nanyang County defenders and even the defenders of several other surrounding counties. Now Yuan Shu issued an order
Let the soldiers and horses seize all the grain and grass in the fertile fields outside Nanyang City. Once these grains and grass are obtained, the tens of thousands of people who support Yuan Shu will have no problem eating them for two months!
After hearing Yang Hong's return, Yuan Shu's expression finally improved a lot. He nodded and said: "Okay! Yang Hong! From today on, you will replace Yan Xiang and be the leader of our army! Be good to me."
Dry!"
Hearing Yuan Shu's appointment, Yang Hong's face was filled with joy. He immediately knelt down and bowed to Yuan Shu: "I thank you for your promotion, my lord!" Yang Hong was so happy that he thought he would
It would take at least a while for him to surpass Yan Xiang. Unexpectedly, after Yan Xiang made such a fuss, he would now become the number one adviser under Yuan Shu's account! Yuan Shu has always valued literature over military affairs. As the number one adviser under Yuan Shu's account,
That status is much higher!
Yuan Shu was also angered by Yan Xiang and didn't have much energy to talk to Yang Hong anymore. He waved his hand to signal Yang Hong to retreat, and he went back to the small tent next to the big tent to rest.
There was no need for Yuan Shu to worry about the next thing. It would take Ji Ling and Chen Ji two or three days to collect military rations, and it was impossible for Yuan Shu's army to wait. During this period, Yang Hong, who had just become the leader of the army, also
Several attacks on Nanyang City were organized. The purpose was naturally to prevent the defenders of Nanyang City from going out to block the teams of Ji Ling and Chen Ji collecting grain and grass. Of course, these attacks could not capture Nanyang City, but Nanyang
Because of this, the city's defenders were unable to leave the city to provide support. They watched helplessly as the food that the people of Nanyang had worked so hard to grow was snatched away by Yuan's soldiers who were like wolves and tigers.
It was not that the local people rose up to resist, but how could those ordinary people be the opponents of these heavily armed soldiers? Those people who dared to resist were all brutally killed by Yuan Jun soldiers! For a time, many people who stayed behind
The people outside the city poured into the city. In response, the defenders in the city let them into the city on the premise of ensuring that they would not be mixed in by the enemy troops.
Seeing the crowds of people pouring in from the city gate crying for their fathers and mothers, Wenpin, who was standing at the top of Nanyang City, gritted his teeth with hatred, picked up the long knife placed next to him, turned around and wanted to go down to the city.
Next to Wenpin, Gan Ning, who also had a gloomy face, saw him and shouted: "Zhongye! Stop! Where are you going?"
Wenpin, who was stopped by Gan Ning's shout, suddenly turned his head, pointed to the outside of the city and shouted: "Where to go? Of course, go outside the city! I will kill those beasts! Revenge for the people!" Wenpin was born in Nanyang.
, is a native of Nanyang. The people of Nanyang can be regarded as Wenpin's hometown. Wenpin saw the people suffering with his own eyes, how could he bear it.
Gan Ning felt very uncomfortable, but he still stopped Wenpin with a big step and shouted in a deep voice: "No! We can't leave the city! You have forgotten that Mr. Jia's idea for us is to defend Nanyang City. We must not
Let’s go out of the city to meet the enemy! If we fall into the enemy’s trick, Nanyang City will be in danger! How will we communicate with the master then!”
"Mr. Jia?" Although Gan Ning finally mentioned the name of his lord, which made Wenpin's determination somewhat dissipate, when he remembered that this was the idea of that gloomy guy all day long, Wenpin lost his temper.
When he came, he yelled and cursed: "It's all that bastard's fault! That guy simply doesn't care about human life! I won't listen to his nonsense!"
"Zhongye!" Although Gan Ning felt the same way about Wenpin's words, Gan Ning was somewhat calmer than Wenpin. He directly pressed his hands on Wenpin's shoulders and shouted: "Even if you don't want to listen to Jia
Sir, but you must also listen to the lord! Since the lord asked us to listen to Mr. Jia's orders, we cannot disobey the lord's orders! The survival of Nanyang City is of great importance, and we must not take it lightly! Zhongye! Just wait!
I believe it won’t be long before we defeat that bastard Yuan Shu, we must shave him alive! Revenge the people of Nanyang!”
Gan Ning mentioned Luo Yang again. No matter how unwilling Wen Pin felt, he could only grit his teeth and endure it. Staring at the military camp of Yuan Shu's army outside the city with a pair of red eyes, he gritted his teeth and hummed:
"Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu! Such behavior is worse than that of a beast! You have the nerve to call yourself a descendant of an aristocratic family! When you are defeated, I, Wenpin, will kill you with my own hands!"
"Haha!" At this moment, Jia Xu's unique laughter came from behind the two of them. Gan Ning and Wenpin turned around at the same time and saw Jia Xu walking along the female wall under the protection of Zhao Qiang.
Jia Xu came over and looked at the scenery outside the city as he walked, with the same smile on his face. When he walked in front of the two of them, Jia Xu smiled and said to Wenpin: "General Wen can have
I admire you for such heroic ambition, but Yuan Shu can't die now! My lord has already made plans for the Eastern Expedition, and we still need to rely on Yuan Shu to find the troops and horses to contain Kong Zhou in Yuzhou for our army! So General Wen wants to take action.
I’m afraid that Blade Yuan Shu’s idea will have to be postponed for a while!”
"Huh!" Wenpin naturally didn't look good after hearing Jia Xu's words. He waved his hand and turned around and left, not giving Jia Xu any face. However, Jia Xu didn't care much about Wenpin's reaction.
Still smiling.
Gan Ning did not stop Wenpin from leaving this time. He knew that Wenpin would no longer be impulsive. He turned to look at Jia Xu, suddenly smiled lightly and said, "Mr. Jia, now Yuan Shu is robbing
The food and fodder of the people outside the city have been exhausted. The method that sir mentioned before to use up Yuan Shu's food and fodder is probably useless. I wonder if you have any other methods?"
"Haha!" Jia Xu turned to the outside of the city with a smile, his eyes staring at Yuan Shu's military camp outside the city, and said slyly: "General Gan, don't be anxious! Now Yuan Shu is going the wrong way, which has made the people of Nanyang County complain.
, now our army can be said to be what the people want! The people's hearts are already on our army's side, so our army is naturally invincible! Haha!"
Gan Ning waved his hand a little irritably and said: "Sir! You don't have to give me this pretentious thing! Let's tell the truth. How should our army respond now? I believe you, sir, already have a countermeasure in mind!"
"Haha!" Jia Xu just glanced at Gan Ning, then turned his eyes back to the direction of Yuan Shu's military camp, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, general! What Yuan Shu has done is already outrageous, and even God will not tolerate what he has done.
Whatever you do will inevitably lead to divine punishment! General, all you have to do is wait patiently!"
