Chapter 1168 Subconsciously

On the other side, on the north bank of the Yellow River, in the Mongolian camp.

"Father, we can't continue fighting like this, the food and grass are already unsustainable!" Wang Baobao was in a hurry.

"I know! Sit down! You've made me dizzy!" Ruyang King Chahan said calmly.

"Oh, father, why are you not in a hurry at all, the food and grass from the court can't be delivered, if this continues, the soldiers will be separated, how can you fight!"

"I know!" King Ruyang said again.

"You always say that you know you know, but how to solve the situation now, people eat so much food and grass every day, and local officials in various places are pushing back and delaying, just not transporting food and grass!"

King Ruyang narrowed his eyes, and said, "Just tell the local grain-raising officials and tell them that if there is no [-] shi of grain and grass in our army within three days, let him come to see you. Needless to say!"

Wang Baobao cupped his hands excitedly and said, "Yes!" After speaking, he turned and left.

Ruyang Wang Chahan pinched his forehead with his fingers, he felt a headache.

Now, he seems to be trapped in a swamp, he has no chance to cross the Yellow River, even if he wants to come to Ying Wugou, he doesn't want him to cross the Yellow River, they have already fallen into an anxious battle north of the Yellow River, the two sides repeatedly competed for the city There is no room for compromise.

Both sides also suffered heavy casualties, and many troops could no longer survive. King Ruyang also knew that the soldiers he brought over this time were far inferior to those on Shaoshi Mountain, so the soldiers' morale was worrying. If it collapses, it will be out of control.

However, the emperor urged him to seize Wu'an City with an edict several days ago, and he couldn't get away.

In Peixian County, the gunpowder is still in the air, the flags are like fire, and there are already corpses everywhere in Peixian County.

Zhu Yuanzhang wiped the blood from the knife on the joint of his left arm, and Chang Yuchun beside him said out of breath, "We have captured Pei County, but Brother Zhu, what should we do next?"

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Chang Yuchun next to him, and said, "What should I do! Defend Pei County!"

"Defend Pei County to the core? What is there to defend in Pei County? It is also Teng County that must be defended!" Tang He next to him burst into anger.

"Pei County is indeed a good place. If the grain and grass are transported to Pei County on schedule, it can be guarded here. This place is not far from Guide Mansion, and Guide Mansion is not far from Feng Mansion, so it is very easy to transport food and grass. , as long as Ying Wugou abides by the agreement, even if the geographical advantage is not as good as Teng County, we can still defend Pei County." Xu Da interjected.

"Of course, we still need elite soldiers and horses as support. If this is the case, the main force of the Mongolian army dare not move lightly. We may not be able to deal with the main force of Ruyang King Chahan, but we can match his vanguard army, or It is the left wing, our strength is more than sufficient, and it is even possible to go further."

After listening to Xu Da's words, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.

The gunpowder smoke in Pei County gradually dissipated, but the embers in the distance had not been completely extinguished. The old ravens were circling and flying in the sky, screaming non-stop. The rebel soldiers drove the prisoner away and dragged the body with great effort, leaving a long trail on the ground. This is to prepare for burning or landfill, but also to avoid the plague, as stated in the epidemic prevention manual of Baicaotang.

A bunch of thatch beside the corpse pit swayed in the wind and trembled, and the captives were filling it with soil one by one.

Xu Da sighed, war is like this, there are always casualties, although they captured Pei County, they caused unforeseen damage to the people of Pei County, and many of these residents in Pei County were also forced into labor by the Mongols over the walls to fight.

Many people died here, this is a choice, a helpless choice.

Choose to fight the Mongols or choose to compromise?But no matter which choice you choose, you will face the risk of your life. The ruthlessness of war is laid out in front of people.

At this time, a man in purple clothes and headband came to Zhu Yuanzhang, bowed his hands, and said, "General Zhu, the lord's order!" The emblem of a beggar gang is very similar to the gluttonous order of free food.

Zhu Yuanzhang took the letter, took a look at it, and said: "The order came. As I expected, we really want us to stick to Pei County."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the envoy and said, "I don't know if the lord has anything else to hand over to me?"

The man handed over a letter again and said: "The leader said that the supplies on the above list will arrive in Peixian County within three days. General, please guard Peixian County for seven days!"

Zhu Yuanzhang took the letter and said: "Okay, tell the leader, I, Zhu Yuanzhang, will definitely do it!"

The messenger said again: "The leader also said that the general can set up camp in Pei County, recruit soldiers and horses on the spot, and expand the army to 15!"

Chang Yuchun's eyes widened, and he said, "Expand the army by [-], why expand the army by [-], are you kidding me?"

Tang He next to him also shook his head, and the dead messenger next to him said, "I have finished conveying the leader's words, and I don't know anything else. If General Zhu has any questions, please write a letter, and I can send it to the city of Wu'an."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said: "It's hard work, go and rest!" He waved his hand.

The messenger turned and left after saluting.

Zhu Yuanzhang turned around and looked at Chang Yuchun, Xu Da and Tang He beside him, "What do you think?"

Xu Da stroked his beard and said, "I see that Ying Wugou intends to let us stay here to spend a long time with the Mongols!"

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and said, "Are you saying that we are now being used by him as a frontier army?"

Xu Da nodded, "There is such a possibility, and the possibility is very high."

Tang He next to him sneered: "Isn't he afraid that we will give him a loophole, and when the time comes, the Mongolian army will drive straight in and reach the city of Wu'an, and he will deal with it when I see it."

Xu Dao looked at Tang He, sneered and said, "Don't worry, he won't deal with the Mongols at that time, he will be the first one to deal with us. Although we are already grasshoppers on a rope, whoever goes down Jump, whoever will be the first to die."

"I believe that Ying Wugou must have issued the same order to other rebels."

Chang Yuchun frowned and said, "I'm not afraid of these Mongols, I'm just fighting them, but expanding the army by [-], where can we get food, grass, weapons and armor?"

"Although Pei County has a large population, it can't withstand such consumption!"

Tang He frowned again, "I don't believe that Ying Wugou has such a big heart, let us expand the army by [-] to completely threaten the status of the beggar gang's rebel army, and Ying Wugou is the only leader in his hands. How many soldiers and horses?"

"We gather an army of [-], isn't he afraid of us?"

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head slightly, "He's not afraid!"

Tang He looked at Zhu Yuanzhang in surprise. He didn't know why Zhu Yuanzhang said that. Xu Da answered from the side: "Of course he is not afraid. He now controls several provinces in the south of the Yangtze River, and he has Shuzhong as his backer. Now there are other provinces in the south of the Yangtze River. A part of the rebel army has broken through Chang'an City, and the Guanzhong Plain is within easy reach!"

"There's also the big battle that happened in Dengzhou, don't you even read the military information!" Xu Da looked at Tang He helplessly.

"Military intelligence? What is this?" Tang He looked around and was a little dazed.

Xu Da didn't even bother to deal with Tanghe.

"Military intelligence, that is, the intelligence sent by the leader of the rebel army, Ying Wugou, to each rebel army. It is reported every month. Our navy defeated the Mongolian navy in the battle of Dengzhou, but they are not called navy at all. Now Now Ying Wugou has built two port camps in Dengzhou and Liaodong where the fleet can dock."

"Dengzhou is now fighting fiercely with the Mongols." Chang Yuchun shook his head and explained.

"We still have navy?" Tang He suddenly turned them into us.
