Yipin Farmer's Wife

Chapter 854
"Father, Lan'er will."

Han Chulan made a promise to her father.

"Go back to sleep."

Han Chulan hummed, stood up, advised Ouyang Lie to rest early, and left with the bowl in her hand.

After Ye Qianze met Yu Bin and the others, Yu Bin immediately sent someone to deliver a letter to Yu Linglan, and Yu Linglan, who was about to move, came with a mighty army the next day.

Ten days later, the two sides met, and Ye Qianze officially returned to the barracks.

During this period, Ye Wuji had already issued an order to the world, denouncing Ye Qianze and others as rebellious officials and thieves, and punishing everyone if they got it.

The civil war between the brothers officially began.

Ye Wuji dispatched troops and generals, and the commander was Yuan Que.

Ye Qianze has only 15 soldiers and horses in his hands, and Ye Wuji has [-]. In terms of military strength, Ye Wuji is extremely strong.Ye Qianze was at a disadvantage, and after Ye Wuji cut off the supply of food and grass to Yulinglan, Ye Qianze's army quickly fell into the predicament of food shortage three months after the war started.

When Han Chulan met her mother, she didn't even have time to tell her the pain of missing her after the farewell. She took the Phoenix Order and ran around, bringing out the food she had stockpiled for Ye Qianze, and constantly mobilizing the silver to supply it to her mother. Ye Qianze's army.

Fortunately, Yu Linglan and Ouyang Lie were shrewd. Before Ye Qianze returned to the barracks, they first laid down a few states and counties that were rich in grain for him. Wan Dajun will not starve to death immediately.

Ye Qianze took out the imperial edict of the ancestors, and the edict, which has been living in rumors, appeared in the world, making the two sides even more tense.

The state capital that chose to support Ye Wuji was defeated by Ye Qianze's attack.

Yuan Que had not arrived with the army, but his subordinates arrived first and brought Yuan Que's battle plan. After Ye Qianze captured several cities in a row, in a place called Chiping, the two armies fell into a stalemate. war.

Once the two armies are at war, once they reach a stalemate, it depends on who has the most food and grass, and whoever does not have enough food and grass will immediately lose.

Yuan Que asked Ling Qing to bring a message to Chi Ping's defenders, only defending but not attacking, and waited for him to arrive with reinforcements. Their food and grass were more abundant than Ye Qianze and the others, and they could afford it.

The city wall of Chiping was built extremely high. Although it could not be as high as that of the imperial capital, it was higher than other states and counties, so it would be difficult for Ye Qianze and the others to attack the city.

In the past, Ye Qianze might be able to dig a hole and put explosives to blow up the tower, but now he can't.Now his supplies are short, and he has to spend his own money to prepare everything.The commercial kingdom created by the concubine mother, with the beginning of the civil war, those silver taels kept flowing away like running water.

Xingyue and Xiaoqi brought the silver taels earned from Shifu Restaurant to join everyone, but those silver taels were not enough for war.

The most important thing is food.

If there is not enough food, the soldiers will not be full enough to eat. When fighting, they will consume their energy and be easily killed by the enemy.

After asking the head of the kitchen, Ye Qianze and Yu Linglan frowned when they knew that there was only enough food for a week.

They bought all the surplus food in the hands of the people, but there were too many of them, and they couldn't last long.They could only wait for Han Chulan to deliver food to help. They didn't know and couldn't guarantee when Han Chulan would come back after leaving for a while, and whether the food delivery was smooth.

It was night time again.

Ye Qianze sat alone on the desk in the camp, knocking on the desk with his fingers once and for all, but his two sword eyebrows were tightly drawn together, and his phoenix eyes looked deep.

Yulinglan opened the curtain and walked in.

"mother."

Ye Qianze stood up.

"I saw that the master's camp was still lit, so I came in to have a look." Ye Qianze called for Yuling Lanniang, but Yu Linglan called for Master Ye Qianze.Both are insisting on calling each other.

"Mother, Yuan Que's army will arrive in five days."

Ye Qianze said something in a low voice.

"Is there no news about Lan'er?"

Yulinglan asked with concern.

Ye Qianze shook his head, "I suspect that Yuan Que sent someone to block Lan'er's news." Lan'er walked with the secret guard, who could contact him at any time, but he couldn't contact those secret guards now. Wei and Dai Qing also contacted several times, but to no avail.

He speculated that it might be that Yuan Que sent someone to target Han Chulan and block Han Chulan's news, so that he could not know where Han Chulan was at the moment.He could only think of Yuan Que if he could do this.

"Lan'er will be very dangerous."

There was worry in Yuling Lan's eyes.

"Yuan Que won't hurt her, but the food she hoarded in the past may all fall into Yuan Que's hands."

"This Yuan Que is the most troublesome one. Without him, Ye Wuji will soon be at a disadvantage." Yu Linglan said coldly. The most troublesome thing about Yuan Que is that he is too well informed.

Ye Qianze was silent.

He also knew that Yuan Que was a formidable enemy, but Yuan Que's identity meant that he had to fight Yuan Que's formidable enemy.

"Mother, we only have enough food for seven days, we can't wait for Lan'er to come back, we have to think of other ways."

Yu Linglan hummed, "I know that the soldiers also farm and want to be self-sufficient, but we have too many people, and self-sufficiency is impossible. We have been fighting before, and the food in the states and counties is not enough. problem."

Ye Qianze walked around the camp, thinking about how to solve the imminent problem.

He thought of asking Ouyang Lie and Shangguan Ping for help, but Ouyang Lie guarded the rear for him, not allowing Shangguan Ping to take the opportunity to set fire on his back, so that he could return to the imperial capital without any worries. The army also needs a lot of food and grass, and the country supplies food and grass for them to help him guard the rear. He is really embarrassed to ask others to supply him with food and grass. Dongchen Kingdom is well prepared, so supplying so many troops, the pressure will It is very big, if the supply is not available, his rear will be in danger, which will be even more unfavorable to him.

Although Shangguanping was his cousin, after he failed to obtain the Phoenix Token, Shangguanping was wary of him in his heart, so he would not help him now.

Neither path is feasible.

"The grain for the second season can be harvested in a while, as long as we can survive until then, we won't be afraid." Yu Linglan sighed, these words are like drawing cakes to satisfy one's hunger.

Their rear has gone through the chaos of war, but Ye Wuji's rear has not yet gone through the chaos of war.

In this regard, he is also at a disadvantage.

"I asked Yubin to raise food and grass to send it no matter what these few days. My lord, don't worry about this. Lan'er will definitely be fine. She is so smart and will find a way to get rid of Yuan Que and come back." Yu Linglan Comforting Ye Qianze.

Ye Qianze didn't speak, but his eyebrows were even tighter, forming a word "Chuan" on his brows.
