Chapter 174 174 Opportunity is more important than anything else
They took away all the food in southern Xinjiang, and with the idea of fighting to the death, they carried gunpowder and rushed out, hoping to fight to the death with the Yanbei army. The result...
They chased for several days and ate all the dry food they brought out, but they still failed to catch up with Yan Bei's army.
They were vigorous at one time, then weakened again, and finally exhausted. Their morale was high before, but now they are depressed.
After chasing for several days, they could not catch up with Yan Bei's army. They also learned the bad news that they would almost never be able to catch up with Yan Bei's army.
Yes!
Bad news!
For them, fighting is not bad news, and dying on the battlefield is not bad news. The biggest bad news is that they cannot catch up with the Yanbei army and do not even have a chance to fight.
Over the years, they have often scolded Yan Beijun for being shameless, often scolding Yan Beijun for being hateful, often scolding Yan Beijun for being cowardly and incompetent, and often scolding Yan Beijun for not being men and not daring to fight with them, but...
They all knew that if they were the Yanbei Army, they would choose to run instead of fighting head-on like the Yanbei Army did.
Let alone the fact that they have gunpowder in their hands, the Yanbei army will definitely lose if they fight them. Even if they have gunpowder in their hands, the Yanbei army will lose money if they fight them.
The Yanbei Army is very strong, countless times stronger than them, but...
They can't defeat the Yan Bei Army one on one, they can't defeat the Yan Bei Army two on one, but they can beat the Yan Bei Army three on one, five on one, or even ten on one, right?
Even if the Yanbei army killed them all in the end and won a complete victory, so what?
When you go to the battlefield, there will be damage. When you fight on the battlefield, someone will die.
Every member of the Yanbei Army has gone through brutal training, and not to mention all of them who remain today are elites, but every one of them is better than ordinary soldiers. Every death of one is a waste.
Yanbei's army did not fight them and kept running. This was not because they were cowardly or incompetent, nor because they were afraid of small things, but because they were smart.
In a real fight, the Yanbei Army can certainly defeat them, but the Yanbei Army will also suffer heavy casualties. On the contrary, if the Yanbei Army just runs away, they will not be able to catch up, and just by dragging them like this, they can be dragged to death.
It is not a secret that they have no food and grass in southern Xinjiang. It is impossible for the Yanbei army to not know about this. Even if they did not know it before, they will know it now.
At this time, no general with any sense would choose to engage in a head-on battle.
As the commander-in-chief of a party, the general naturally understood this truth. It was precisely because he understood it that he knew they were finished.
Without food and grass, and unable to find Yanbei's army, they had no choice but to wait to die.
They can focus on production. At this moment, for their soldiers in southern Xinjiang, every minute and every second is suffering. At this time, if these lieutenants leave with a group of soldiers, he will only be lucky!
I am glad that I can save a batch of food, and I am also glad that I can take this opportunity to unite other people.
Therefore, when the general heard the overt and covert threats from several lieutenants, he didn't even look at them, and he didn't mean to let them do whatever they wanted.
Several of the lieutenants were furious, but refused to bow their heads. They thought the general was deliberately trying to scare them, and walked out of the general's tent angrily without saying hello, without giving the general any face.
"I don't know if I'm going to die." The general looked at their leaving figures and shook his head.
A bunch of idiots!
As expected by the general, after these lieutenants went out, they saw that the general did not send anyone to chase them out and showed no intention to appease them. They all became angry and discussed inciting their subordinates to cause trouble, or directly leading their own troops to go independently.
.
"In this situation, if you stay here, you will be waiting for death. Why don't we go all out and do something big?" They are not idiots. If they didn't know that the current situation is difficult and the general can't raise troops, they would not dare to cause trouble.
Rebellion is a lonely road. As long as you take the first step, no matter what the outcome is, there is no turning back. You can only go on bravely.
"Where is the king?" As soon as this suggestion came out, several lieutenants were moved, but they were still afraid of Nan Jinzhao.
They have seen what Nan Jinzhao is capable of. If their king takes action, they are probably not far from death.
"The sky is high and the earth is far away. No matter how powerful the king is, he can't control us at this time. The king has no food and grass. Do you think anyone is willing to let him do what he wants?"
"However, we don't have any food and grass, and those people may not be willing to follow us."
"Why is there no food and grass?" The man smiled mysteriously, causing others to ask: "Where is the food and grass?"
"Of course it's there." The man pointed to the soldiers not far away.
The other lieutenants looked at each other and said, "You mean... to steal someone else's?"
"Wu Er won't let us rob, and the general won't let us rob. Our own people will definitely not rob our own people, but we can rob other people's. If we rob others of a batch of grain and grass, we can take our troops and horses with us, and we can last a few more days."
If you don't tell me, it will cause trouble for the general, so why not?"
"Even if we rob other people's food and grass, we won't be able to survive for a few days. How will we raise food and grass next?"
"If there is anything to raise, naturally we will continue to rob it. Do you think we will continue to serve as soldiers after we have taken the people away? No, we have taken the people away, so we will take over and become the king of the mountain.
.Although Beichen is poor, it is not without food and grass. With so many brothers, we can't defeat Yanbei's army, and how many ordinary people can we defeat? By then, we will rob Beichen's people, and we won't be popular.
Drink something spicy.”
He doesn't have any thoughts now, he just wants to eat well, drink well, and...
He didn't dare to think about conquering the world, making kings and prime ministers, and he didn't have the life to think about it.
"This..." The remaining lieutenants were all moved.
In this current situation, they can only wait for death, but once they grab a batch of food and grass and take away, they may be able to survive for a while longer.
It's better to die than to live. They... don't want to die, especially they don't want to starve to death.
"Let's do it!" After only a moment of hesitation, the other lieutenants made their decision.
"Now that you have decided to do it, let's do it early. Before others have finished eating all the food, grab a batch and leave with others." As for whether the people who stayed were alive or dead, they had no control over it.
Life and death matter, wealth and honor are in heaven.
Those people don't have a few more days to live or have a life of wealth. What does that have to do with him?
"Tonight..." Someone suggested, but as soon as he started speaking, he was interrupted by that person: "No, let's contact the person now and take action in an hour. If you really want to rebel, you have to be surprised and catch the general by surprise.
Let him be unable to fight back even if he knows what we are going to do."
At this moment, the opportunity is more important than anything else.
The general saw what they did. He didn't believe it. The general didn't know what they were going to do.
But so what if you know?
They have to be fast. Even if the general knows that they are going to rebel and seize food, he will not have time to make plans... (To be continued)
