After rebirth, I tortured the scum and strived to become the empress

With Dianqiu's status improved, his act of capturing Duan Chun alive would not be so embarrassing to Duan Chun. This would not only give Dianqiu face, but also give Duan Chun face.

Moreover, Shen Qingjun hosted the banquet in person, which also gave Duan Chun enough face. With face and being one of his own, it was easy to say anything.

"This is what I asked for." Dianqiu quickly clasped his fists in thanks.

"Autumn means Fengye! Shiye!" Shen Qingjun thought for a while, "If you don't have Ruodian as a guard, just call it 'Fengshi'!"

"I thank my lord for the words."

"Congratulations to Fengshi. Fengshi is only sixteen, is it possible he drinks?" Gao Lingying asked, "You can drink. How can a man not know how to drink!" Dianqiu replied.

"In that case, it's a happy event, why don't Fengshi disrespect everyone here with a toast?" Gao Lingying laughed loudly. He knew the purpose of Shen Qingjun's banquet, so he specifically brought the topic to the toast.

Dianqiu first toasted to Shen Qingjun.
"Fengshi doesn't need to toast me first, you should toast Commander Duan first! I'll apologize to Commander Duan for this." Shen Qingjun refused Dianqiu's first glass of wine and said.

"I will obey your Lord's order." After Dianqiu said that, he picked up the wine glass and came to Duan Chun's table. "Commander Duan, I am trying to survive. What I did today has offended me. I hope you will forgive me!"

Duan Chun took the wine handed over by Dian Qiu, "Haha, we are all members of our own family, why should we be like this! Dian guards young talents, my skills are not as good as others, and I, Duan Chun, am not such a stingy person." After finishing speaking, he drank it all. Turn the wine glass upside down to indicate that you have finished drinking.

To be honest, if Dian Qiu had not joined Shen Qingjun's sect, Duan Chun might have dealt with Dian Qiu, but if Dian Qiu became Shen Qingjun's bodyguard, he would be one of his own!
What happened during the day can be regarded as a discussion between two people. In the military, there are always winners and losers, so it is not surprising that he lost.
And looking at Dianqiu's size, he bets that no one in the Phoenix Guards is his opponent, so it makes sense that he missed and was captured.

Moreover, today the Governor personally prepared a banquet for him to give him face, and even let him have the first glass of wine. He seemed to be petty in worrying about it, so he naturally and generously put the matter aside.

This is the case with many things. As long as you are one of your own, things will become easier to solve.

"We have never known each other until now. I congratulate the Governor for having such a good guard. I humbly congratulate the Governor!" As he spoke, Duan Chun raised his glass and congratulated Shen Qingjun.

Shen Qingjun did not refuse this time, but also picked up the wine on the table and drank it all in one gulp.

……

Shen Qingjun killed Liu Jinguang, spent some time to deal with the matter of his own guards, and spent another five days to briefly deal with the prisoners and the rebels who had mixed with the refugees, and then handed over the rest of Sihe County to Gao Lingying. ,

He led the army non-stop to Wencheng County, where Zhang Yuancheng, the second thieves leader in the North, was entrenched.

Fortunately, it was already August, and although the weather was still hot, it was not too hot to death, so we could march during the day.

Wencheng County

In the rolling mountains,

The newly built military gates stand proudly...Shuntian Royal City, this is the home base of Zhang Yuancheng, one of the bandit leaders!

at this time.

In the palace of King Suncheon!There are many sentries and patrol teams, which are very orderly and completely different from Liu Jinguang's chaotic camp.

In the main hall, there is a burly, honest-looking middle-aged man wearing a purple and gold king's robe, but don't be fooled by his honest face.

Because this man is officially the owner of this military fortress!Another thief in this rebellion is Zhang Yuancheng!
He is sitting on the main seat and looking at the person reporting below. If you ignore the purple and gold royal robe on his body, this honest-looking man looks more like a farmer in the field...

"Your Majesty, the inventory of materials and personnel in Sunchon Royal City and the other eighteen fortresses has been completed..." A young man wearing a blue brocade robe and a Guangxiang embroidered gown stood up and said,
He is one of the children of the wealthy family who Zhang Yuancheng forced to hand over the "voucher of surrender". His surname is Zhao. If he can stand in front of Zhang Yuancheng at this moment, he is probably a direct descendant of the Zhao family.

Zhang Yuancheng, nicknamed Shuntian King, has also become a king, otherwise he would not be called the two major rebel leaders in the North together with Liu Jinguang.

At this time, the scholar surnamed Zhao was reporting the material situation to Zhang Yuancheng in a formal manner: "There are 6000 soldiers in the fort, including 4000 elite armored soldiers and 2000 cavalry;

We have 600 million stones of food, which is enough for us to eat for a year. We have a complete reserve of bows, arrows, kerosene, stones and other defensive materials, which is enough to support our consumption for half a year! "

Because meat, eggs and other supplies are quite scarce, people have a great demand for staple food. Generally speaking, if they ensure food and clothing, an adult man will eat about [-] kilograms of grain in a year.
During the battle, food consumption will double, so a warrior in wartime needs 1000 and two hundred kilograms of grain a year. One stone in the Wei Dynasty totals 120 kilograms.

Therefore, a soldier consumes one hundred dan of food a year, and the treatment of the rebel army is definitely not as good as that of the regular army of the imperial court, but it is still [-]% better. Not only that, in addition to having nearly [-] soldiers, Zhang Yuancheng also keeps horses.
The consumption of war horses is even greater. The food consumption of one horse is equivalent to that of five adult men. In addition, there are more than 4 women and children to support. These women and children are mainly the family members of his soldiers, so even if there is only 600 million stones of food, It can only feed them for one year.

"One year! That's enough. As long as we can survive this winter, the fields in the mountains can be harvested the next year. Even if we have a firm foothold here, Zhao Xiaoyou... you have done a good job in this matter."

Zhang Yuancheng, who has always been honest and honest, had a slight arc on his face: "Then do you think I can withstand the imperial army for a year with these eighteen dangerous fortresses, the tall royal city, and the [-] men under my command?"

"The king possesses the right time, place, and people, so naturally he can..."

Zhao Jie respectfully replied: "Your Majesty, this Shuntian City Fortress was originally built on the mountain. In addition, your Majesty also built eighteen small fortresses in dangerous places on the only way to Shuntian City Fortress. These ten The eight fortresses all occupy strategic locations, making them easy to defend but difficult to attack...

Moreover, eighteen small fortresses blocked the only way to Shuntian Castle. The rest were either rolling mountains or cliffs. If the imperial court wanted to reach Shuntian Castle, it had to remove them one by one!There is no possibility of detours! "

The scholar surnamed Zhao said confidently:
"That's it... Even if one of the fortresses is destroyed, it will not affect the situation of the war. The king's royal industry is as stable as Mount Tai."

Zhang Yuancheng stroked his beard and smiled and said: "Since you know this, why does Zhao Xiaoyou still seek refuge in the imperial court, act as a spy, and come here to do shady things without overestimating his own capabilities? Are you trying to assassinate me?"

"what?"

The scholar surnamed Zhao was really startled, and then he looked hard. Since everything has been discovered, it is better to give it a try...
