Chapter 50 I will solve it!

Ying Xuan left the south city gate and galloped all the way, and finally successfully crossed the river before sunset and reached the south bank of Huai River.

At this moment, he has officially entered Jiujiang County.

In view of what Wang Cheng said, there were various obstacles during the army's support, Ying Xuan could not judge whether there would be rebel scouts around.

So everyone was ordered to reduce the noise as much as possible.

Approach the army station first at a slow speed, and make plans after understanding the situation clearly.

The people who were sent to lead the way were not very courageous, and the paths they led were all rugged and difficult.

After crossing a river again, everyone really got close to Shouchun.

On the bank of the river, the guide pointed to the camp with flames not far away.

"That is Shaobei (shao.bei or què.bēi) Anfengtang, where the army of Huaiyang County is stationed!"

After speaking, he ran back without looking back, not even asking for the promised reward, for fear that Ying Xuan would catch him.

Ying Xuan who was going to give the money had no choice but to withdraw his hand.

Said with a smile on his face.

"It seems that the local people really don't trust me, the generals of the Qin army!"

Zhang Han, however, was a little dissatisfied, feeling that Ying Xuan's identity was insulted by the other party's move, and that he would lose his reputation by spreading the word, so he wanted to catch him and pay him a reward before leaving!
Who knows, but was severely reprimanded by Ying Xuan!

"What do you think? Is money so easy to earn?"

"What are you talking about about face? Can face allow you to have enough to eat? Can it allow me to promote Di Bao?"

"I didn't see the magistrate of Juyang almost lost his head for some money!"

"You still want me to spend it! If you don't want it, it's kindness! Why don't you have any conscience!"

Ying Xuan led the team forward while muttering to teach Zhang Han a lesson.

Zhang Han replied helplessly.

"Didn't you say you want to move forward silently?"

Ying Xuan was taken aback.

"Oh yes!"

I can only shut up resentfully!

The quiet team moved a lot faster.

After a while, they approached the camp, but before they even showed their heads, they heard the sound of a whistle, followed by the sound of dull drums.

The barracks immediately became restless, and in just a few breaths, groups of soldiers in black armor and holding spears rushed out, followed by crossbowmen and sword-wielding warriors, their movements were orderly and layered.

Zhang Han knew that this was discovered in advance by the secret sentries all around, and immediately stepped forward with a dragon order to show the situation.

The leader of the Huaiyang County Sheriff saw the token illuminated by fire and sent someone to get it for viewing.

Immediately overjoyed after confirming that it was the Dragon Order.

"Quickly disperse and welcome the imperial censor's reinforcements!"

After the soldiers heard this, they all held torches to make way, and then Ying Xuan led his men forward.

Before he could reach him, the Huaiyang County Sheriff came up to him and saluted him.

"I didn't expect the imperial court to be so quick. Reinforcements were dispatched just one day after the official's secret letter asking for help was sent!"

"I don't know how many troops the censor brought?"

Yingxuan was stunned for a moment.

Reinforcements?What reinforcements?There are [-] soldiers mobilized from Huaiyang here, plus tens of thousands from Sichuan County in the other direction. Is it possible that this rebellion can't be suppressed?
When the Huaiyang County Sheriff saw Ying Xuan's puzzled look, he immediately understood something.

"Didn't you come to support?"

Ying Xuan could only speak.

"We are here to assist in countering the rebellion under His Majesty's order, but our first task is to capture the rebellion's mastermind alive and recover the important secrets he stole."

The governor of Huaiyang understood now, no wonder it wasn't the reinforcements he expected so soon!

He looked at Ying Xuan's 200 people who seemed unwilling to give in, and he asked again.

"You guys came here lightly? Didn't you bring more food and grass?"

Ying Xuan didn't know how to respond. From the news he got along the way, even the most pessimistic Wang Cheng never doubted that the army of the two counties could easily suppress the rebel army composed of random people.

Not to mention getting to the point of calling for help!

Ying Xuan could only give him a comforting smile.

The Sheriff's face drooped on the spot and he sighed.

"Yeah! It's already difficult enough for the soldiers, but now there are hundreds more mouths!"

Even so, because of Ying Xuan's status as Yushi, he still led Ying Xuan into the camp.

And freed up several empty tents for them.

These camps were low, small and damp, how could Ying Xuan live in such a place? Zhang Han was afraid that he couldn't bear it, so he wanted the county guard to let the camp of the Chinese army out, but Ying Xuan stopped him.

"They are not targeting us. This place is close to Anfeng Pond and there is a lot of water vapor. The same is true for other people living there."

"We have just arrived, and if we use our power for personal gain without doing anything, it will only make the soldiers disgusted!"

Zhang Han had no choice but to nod, but still whispered a few words to the guards.

Ying Xuan, who didn't care, took Zhang Han into the military tent in the center of the barracks after being settled.

Under the oil lamp, the governor in the camp frowned.

"Shouchun, as the old capital of the Chu State, has tall walls and a moat, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack."

"If there are tens of thousands of soldiers defending the city, it is understandable that it would be so difficult to attack, but the opponent only has tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians!"

"It's really incomprehensible that we easily extinguished our offensive several times, so that the stalemate lasted for so long!"

The county lieutenant on the side was dissatisfied with the governor's remarks.

"You don't know how to command the troops. The person behind the opponent is definitely a general who is very good at commanding the troops. He has been impenetrable in several defenses and knows the direction of our attack very clearly!"

"Coupled with the advantages of the terrain, it will be difficult for anyone to capture it!"

But the sheriff doesn't care about that.

"It is said that the disaster was quelled in a few days, but now it has been more than half a month, not only is there not enough food and grass."

"Even the soldiers suffered nearly [-] casualties! The other camps are already filled with wailing. If we delay it any longer, I'm afraid the army will lose heart. Let alone attack the city, it will be good if you and I are not punished by the court's military law!"

The county lieutenant also looked anxious, but he had no good solution.

"Why should we be punished? Shouchun is difficult to attack. Is it difficult for him to attack a few small cities in Sichuan County?"

"With his eagerness for quick success, no news has been received until now. You don't have to think about it to know that he must be in the same dilemma as us!"

The sheriff gritted his teeth and sighed.

"So what? Isn't it bad luck that he can't capture us? If we can catch him, we will be spared lightly by the court, right?"

"Do you think His Majesty doesn't punish everyone?"

It seemed that the two top officials of Huaiyang County were about to quarrel.

The Cheng and Du Wei under the county lieutenant hurriedly spoke out to ease the relationship!

"The top priority is no longer to siege the city, but to ensure food abundance first!"

"Morale is already poor. Once the soldiers run out of food, the consequences will be disastrous!"

The county lieutenant also knew that the grain raising order had been issued for a few days, and the two nearest counties, Anfeng County and Shen County in the southwest, had not responded so far. The rebels robbed and killed!

As soon as the army moved, they dispersed again, jumped into the river in pieces, and got into the reeds.

Let everyone have a headache!
Hearing this, Ying Xuan frowned. He didn't expect the matter to be so serious!

It is better to stabilize the morale of the army first.

"Food and grass, I can help you solve this problem. Please tell us the recent battle situation in detail!"

Several people in the tent looked up and frowned when they saw Ying Xuan coming in.

I don't know where his confidence comes from.

 Thanks to "Xiaoshasha," for the reward!

  It really hit the 98th place on the new book list!Although it is the bottom of the list, I am very excited, after all, it is the first time.I am very grateful to all the judges here!I wish you all an early fortune!
