Chapter 56 The Barracks Cheers!
The sheriff was stunned.

He ran forward in disbelief, opened the grain bag with his own hands, grains of millet flowed, the corporal leader didn't lie to him!
The sheriff couldn't help laughing up to the sky, now he doesn't have to worry about food anymore!
He looked at the captain excitedly.

"How did you do it?"

The corporal commander responded with a smile.

"It's all the work of the censor!"

"He persuaded all the refugees along the way not to block the grain road!"

"And conscript them into the army. Now that the food roads are open, we don't have to worry about logistics anymore!"

The county guard's eyes widened immediately. The censors he had met in the past were all those who were not only domineering.

Always wanting to trouble the officials and generals, he has never encountered such a powerful censor.

Besides, this is the food that so many people led by General Qian failed to bring back.

The censor not only did it, but also completely dredged the grain road, solving all hidden dangers at once?
The sheriff, who was instantly relieved, blinked and said loudly.

"These censors are simply the parents of food and clothing!"

"I am truly lucky to have met you!"

He looked around, but did not see Ying Xuan and other forbidden soldiers.

Can not help but wonder.

"Where's the censor?"

Wu Zhang spoke.

"The censor still has something to do, so he ordered me to come back first!"

"and……"

Before he finished speaking, the sheriff waved his hand reassuringly.

He personally led everyone to the camp.

The county lieutenant in the camp is still thinking hard!
How can we not lose the morale of the army before the reinforcements arrive? Is it really necessary to slaughter the horses?
This kind of behavior is simply an indelible shame for the leading generals!

But the next second, the smell of rice porridge suddenly came from outside the tent.

The county lieutenant was furious immediately, food was so scarce that one person would eat half a meal, and it was not the time for court food, yet someone dared to steal it.

He suddenly pulled out his sword and stepped out of the military tent with a cold face.

I thought that today I must kill the chickens to make an example to the monkeys, in order to control the chaos!

But when I looked up, I saw that the whole camp was filled with smoke and cooking was happening everywhere.

The soldiers were overjoyed, and even Cheng and Du Wei each brought a portion of food, their cheeks bulging.

The county captain was stunned.

"Are you crazy? Are you going to attack the city and die after eating the last food and grass?"

At this time, the Cheng and Du Wei came to their senses, and hurriedly gave the county Wei a dān.

"The county lieutenant misunderstood! This is the food brought back by the censor. There are two thousand stones, and there is no way to finish it!"

The county lieutenant was shocked!
The censor only brought 200 people, but he really sent the food back?

And it was still two thousand stones, so there was no loss at all!
He couldn't help but think again of the scene Ying Xuan saw when he left.

Now the more I think about it, the more I feel that those 200 people may be the Imperial Army!

You must know that there is an insurmountable gap in combat effectiveness between ordinary soldiers and professional soldiers like the Forbidden Army in this era.

Ordinary soldiers have to farm after fighting, and training is infrequent in order to save food.

But apart from eating and sleeping, the forbidden soldiers only practice killing and defense every day!
It can be said that the forbidden army can easily fight against enemy formations several times its own if they cooperate well.

It's a pity that the price is too high and the quantity is too small for Xianyang to be able to raise them.

The lieutenant took a breath. If those people were really the Forbidden Army, then what was the identity of this censor?
He began to think about that uncontrollably, but his reason kept telling him that it was impossible.

Nobody does these things under cover.

Just when he was wondering, the captain had already handed over the meal.

He subconsciously wanted to take a few bites.

A mocking voice sounded.

"Oh? Didn't someone just complain that I encouraged Yu Shi to solve the food problem?"

"And you said that Yushi is going to die?"

"Why is it so delicious now? Does your face hurt?"

The county guard came out of nowhere, and the county lieutenant rolled his eyes at him and continued eating, ignoring his villain.

"Hahaha!"

The governor was very happy to see the county captain who didn't reply. He finally won the fight this time!

Excited, he picked a carriage and stood on it.

"Soldiers and soldiers! Increase the number of eclipses from today! Change to three times a day! The siege soldiers can increase it to four times!"

As soon as these words came out, all the soldiers cheered and their momentum was high, but the county lieutenant almost spit out the rice in his mouth.

He yelled angrily in a low voice.

"Are you crazy?"

"Even if there are two thousand stones, that's not how it works!"

"What if we can't attack for a long time?"

But the sheriff ignored it, and after the announcement, he turned and looked at the three of them seriously.

"Don't eat? If you don't eat now, you will die!"

"The censor issued a death order! Tonight, we must attack the city with all our strength, and we must hold back the enemy's frontal forces for two hours no matter the cost!"

"Two whole hours? You have to risk your life to fill it!"

The county lieutenant's affection for Ying Xuan just now disappeared again!

"Why do you do this? Even if he brings back food, the lives of my soldiers are not given like this!"

"You know you can't attack but you still want to die? Just because of his achievements?"

But who knew that the county governor had no intention of belittling Ying Xuan this time.

Instead, he said solemnly.

"Because the censor wants to personally lead people into the city to behead him! Put an end to this rebellion!"

The county lieutenant widened his eyes again.

"Crazy! Crazy! Everyone is crazy!"

The Prime Minister and the Captain on the side also had serious expressions!
For two hours, if the siege continues without stopping, the [-] army will suffer heavy casualties!

"Why not wait for reinforcements?"

The Sheriff didn't answer.

"On Yushi Road, we gathered all the resisting refugees and joined the army. We know why they rebelled!"

Several people frowned and looked at the sheriff, which has always puzzled them.

"Because their family members were taken into Shouchun City!"

"As long as they don't obey and don't try their best to intercept the food and grass, the bodies of their family members will be hung on the city wall the next day!"

The captain's eyes widened immediately, and only now did he realize that the corpses hanging all over the city wall were not for them to see.

The Sheriff continued.

"Now that the food road is open, if we don't attack the city, all the refugees around will be useless, and their families will all be killed."

After a pause, he whispered.

"Moreover! Even if we wait for reinforcements! Will the nearly [-] Chu people in Shouchun City survive?"

"According to the practices of those beasts, it's better to push them to the front to block the arrows!"

"The best result then is to anger the general and order the massacre of the city!"

He raised his head.

"You are both from Chu! Could it be that you just have the heart to see your own people being slaughtered like this?"

After saying this, the three of them fell silent.

The county guard is not from Chu, but they are all!

"So, Yushi is the last chance! This is also the last chance for the people of Shouchun!"

"It's also your last chance!"

The sheriff was silent for a while after speaking.

"Think about it for yourself! If you don't want the soldiers to die, I will send someone to inform the censor that it can't be done!"

"At worst, disobedience will kill me!"

After speaking, the sheriff was ready to leave.

The county lieutenant suddenly said.

"Could the censor be from Chu?"

"He can risk his life to enter the city for the sake of the Shouchun people? Could it be that I, with thirty thousand Chu generals, can't even make a feint attack?"

He suddenly raised his head and looked at the county guard with a firm gaze.

I saluted respectfully!
"Although I always talk back to you on weekdays! But you know it!"

"We respect you from the bottom of our hearts!"

"After this battle, maybe you will change to another obedient subordinate, but please tell the censor!"

"My Chu people's blood will not change!"

At this time, dozens of soldiers not far away suddenly stood up and interjected.

"What two hours! The censor looks down on us!"

"Today, we insist on taking down the city wall and showing him!"

As soon as these words came out, the soldiers around him also spoke.

"Exactly! Taking down the city wall will increase Yushi's knowledge!"

Then the shout seemed to infect the rest of the group, who shouted in unison.

"Siege! Siege! Siege!"

 Beg to follow up!
