That night, for the first time, Ning Yuan did not send anyone to harass Li Yufeng's army who settled in Shangtun Township, so that the other party had a rare good night's sleep.

Early the next morning, after the army ate the steaming stewed horse meat, Li Yufeng immediately directed the army to march southeast along the Huiji River.

Although the county seat of Suixian County was right under his nose, and a large amount of food and grass materials were frozen in it, Li Yufeng knew that once his more than 200,000 people entered, they would not be able to get out again, because the Eagle Army They will definitely be frozen in the city in the same way.

The reason why the more than 200,000 people under his command are still morale is not only because they are all carefully selected elites, but also because the threat from the Condor Army is always nearby.

This keeps them in a state of high mental stress all the time, and they don't have much time to think wildly.

Once Li Yufeng led the army into the city and successfully broke the ice, after gaining temporary peace, the soldiers would definitely start thinking wildly.

Although these soldiers can be regarded as Li Yufeng's direct lineage, their loyalty to him is very high.

But in such a bad situation, people's hearts will gradually change.

Under the influence of pessimistic emotions such as disappointment, anxiety, homesickness, etc., more and more soldiers will definitely feel dissatisfied with Li Yufeng, because Li Yufeng brought them into this desperate situation.

So if Li Yufeng wanted to minimize the chances of the soldiers thinking wildly, he had to keep them nervous all the time.

Entering the county seat of Suixian County must be dead, and it is estimated that they will soon be gathered by the Eagle Army to bury them in the city.

Continuing to roam in the wild, although it would be difficult and basically a near-death experience, would at least theoretically maintain a glimmer of hope of escaping.

Li Yufeng likes to take the initiative in his own hands. Even if he loses, he must take the initiative instead of passively waiting for the enemy to solve them.

So after weighing the pros and cons of the night, Li Yufeng finally gave up the plan to enter the Suixian county to break the ice, but chose to continue to deal with the Eagle Army in the wild.

......

Ning Yuan was not at all surprised that Li Yufeng would choose to lead the army to march southeast along the Huiji River, because he had already deduced what choice Li Yufeng would make based on various signs.

After losing all the war horses, Li Yufeng's current choice is either to immediately enter the nearby Suixian county to break the ice, and after the ice is broken, he will defend the city.

Either continue to play in the wild to survive, compete with the Condor Army for patience, and see if they freeze to death first, or the Condor Army can't bear to take the initiative to attack them.

Entering the city of Suixian to break the ice, although they can get the food and heating supplies stored in the city after success, it is equivalent to walking directly into the cage.

When they were breaking the ice, the Condor Army had enough time to dispatch troops to besiege them in the city, and then the scene where the defenders in the city were frozen in ice would be staged here again.

So as long as Li Yufeng still has the slightest idea of ​​survival in his heart, he will not bring the army into Suixian County to die.

If Li Yufeng finally chooses not to enter the county seat of Suixian County, then he can only continue to fight guerrilla warfare with the Condor Army in the wild.

In this cold winter, Li Yufeng wants to lead his army to fight wits and courage with the Eagle Army in the wild, so he must do two things, otherwise he and his army will freeze to death without the Eagle Army. Cold winter night.

The first thing is to solve the problem of food.

People are iron rice and steel, and if they don't eat a meal, they will be very hungry.

After slaughtering all the war horses, the food problem was temporarily solved, at least for a short time, they didn't have to worry about the food problem.

The second thing is to solve the problem of heating the army.

Continuous marching in the field in sub-zero weather was a very severe test for Li Yufeng's army of more than 200,000 people.

The lower the temperature, the greater the consumption of soldiers.

In addition to relying on food to obtain a certain amount of heat, soldiers also need to drink some hot water or hot soup from time to time to ward off the cold.

And this is only in daylight conditions.

After night, the temperature will drop further.

Although the soldiers could withstand a certain amount of cold by huddling together, it was not enough.

Without tents and other equipment for camping in the wild, if there is no fire that can provide warmth for the soldiers, many people may never wake up after falling asleep.

Therefore, under the condition that there is no shortage of food for the time being, Li Yufeng must find a way to find enough combustibles during the day so that the soldiers can drink hot soup regularly and keep warm by roasting fire at night.

Under the tactics of the Condor Army, it was impossible for Li Yufeng to get enough firewood to keep out the cold at one time like yesterday.

Therefore, he must try to collect enough firewood through the march during the day so that the army can survive another cold night.

To collect enough firewood, they had to find some bushes.

The Condor Army can ignite the villages and towns along the way, but it cannot ignite all the bushes along the way, because when the ground is full of snow, even if the bare trees are ignited, it is difficult for the fire to spread around.

As for the Condor Army going directly in front of them and cutting down all the bushes before they arrived, it would be even more impossible for them to return without success.

Because in the cold winter, not only their consumption is very large, but also the orc warriors of the Condor Army.

Compared with them, the orc warriors are more resistant to freezing, but this is achieved by ingesting a lot of food.

In such cold weather, just marching in the field is already a very difficult thing. If the centaur warriors are allowed to run around to cut down the forest, it is estimated that they will not have the strength to fight again.

With Ning Yuan's current level of shrewdness, it is impossible for him to risk overworking the centaurs to do such stupid things, so as long as they are not lucky, they can always find some bushes or groves. of.

The reason why Li Yufeng's army went south was not going to other directions.

In addition to the fact that there are an unknown number of Condor troops stationed in those three directions, they can enter Anhui because they have to walk more than 100 kilometers to the south.

Although Anhui now belongs to the Condor Empire in name, in fact it has been in a state of abandonment.

After the loss of a large number of people, in addition to some major cities in Anhui still inhabited, most of the other places have become wilderness.

Anhui is known as the land of fish and rice, where ecological resources are very rich.

As the villagers in the wild go to empty houses and the fields in the wild are no heavier, it has become a paradise for wild animals, where bushes overgrown with grass can be seen everywhere, and all kinds of animals are even more numerous.

As long as they can successfully enter Anhui along the Huiji River, not only the problem of food and firewood can be solved, but maybe they can also take the opportunity to turn to Dabie Mountain, and then climb the Dabie Mountain to escape to heaven.

Under the circumstance that the passage into the Nanyang Basin has been blocked by the Condor Army, for Li Yufeng, entering the Dabie Mountains is his only chance to escape.

Although the road from Shangtun Township to Dabie Mountain is also full of difficulties and difficulties, it is better than seeing no hope.

Even if Li Yufeng of more than 200,000 people could only bring back 10,000 people alive, he would definitely be willing to fight for it. After all, every elite soldier like this is very precious.

Like Li Yufeng, Ning Yuan also studied the map carefully for a night.

He brought himself completely into Li Yufeng's role, and then found the only way to escape his life in theory.

......

In the northwest of Bozhou there is a place called Niuji Town.

Niuji Town is located at the junction of Henan and Anhui. The land there is very fertile, and it was originally a large agricultural town.

However, with the advent of the war, the people of Niuji Town all fled to other places to avoid the war, and then Niuji Town gradually became a paradise for wild animals.

The abandoned cattle market town is overgrown with weeds, and messy bushes can be seen everywhere.

With the arrival of winter, the current Niuji Town is full of dry grass and various trees with lost leaves. In the forest and wild fields, some animals such as pheasants, hares and wild boars can be seen from time to time.

When Li Yufeng's army came to Niuji Town after two days of hard trek, the soldiers who had become a little numb finally showed a smile.

Looking at the overgrown wilderness in front of them, at the abandoned house with trees growing on the roof, and at the various small animals who hadn't realized that the **** of death had come, they rushed over excitedly.

This time, without Li Yufeng's orders, the soldiers had already started to search every place in Niuji Town.

Whether it is grass, trees or various animals, as long as it can be ignited and eaten in the stomach, they will never let it go.

As the main army entered Niuji Town one after another, the sky above Niuji Town was soon filled with smoke, and all kinds of meat aromas could be smelled from far away.

"Reporting to the commander, after careful investigation, Niuji Town is currently very safe.

There are not only a lot of hay and trees here, but also a lot of wild peppers, cotton, tobacco leaves, wheat, rice and other crops. It seems that these things have been grown here before.

In addition to these crops, we also found several abandoned fish ponds nearby. After cutting the ice, we found that there are many live fish inside. I have organized some soldiers to go to the fish ponds and nearby small rivers to fish for fish. .

By the way, Niuji Town is a paradise for wild animals, there are pheasants, hares and wild boars everywhere.

Although these wild animals are a little insignificant to our army of 200,000 people, they are enough for the soldiers to improve their food.

Commander, this cattle market town is really nice. Shall we take a day off here? "

After Li Yufeng entered Niuji Town, Li Kun, a pioneer officer, immediately came to report.

After reporting the basic situation of Niuji Town, Li Kun looked at Li Yufeng with hope, hoping that he could order the army to repair here for one more day.

Two consecutive days of rushing on the road made everyone, including Li Kun, very tired.

During the day, they not only had to be on the lookout for a sneak attack by the Centaur army of the Condor Legion that had been following them all the time, but also searched everywhere for firewood to burn.

In the process of collecting firewood, let alone a branch, even if they saw a piece of hay, they would immediately run over to collect it.

When have they ever done such a thing before!

When they were in Hubei, they were Li Tang's most elite army, and they were the best in terms of clothing, food, housing, and transportation. Every day, someone would prepare everything for them.

But now they not only have to suffer from hunger, but also go everywhere to collect firewood.

In order to pick up enough firewood for the night, they stared at the front all day, for fear of missing a dead branch or a dead grass on the ground.

Even if their eyes are sore, they don't dare to relax for a moment, because a dead branch is likely to decide the life and death of several people.

It can be said that their experience in the past two days is simply a nightmare. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

And although the Niuji Town where they are now has been abandoned for a long time, for them who have experienced the torture of the previous two days, Niuji Town is a place like paradise.

In Niuji Town, there are not only abandoned houses that can shelter from gusts of wind and rain, but also enough firewood to survive the cold winter nights, as well as all kinds of game and fresh river fish to temporarily satisfy their cravings.

You must know that these things were something they didn't even dare to think about before today, so this place is heaven for them.

Glancing at Li Kun with a haggard face and unshaven beard, Li Yufeng sighed softly, "I passed my order, the army will rest in Niuji Town for a day, and leave the day after tomorrow.

Tell the officers of the various armies to do their defensive work and try to provide a comfortable resting environment for the soldiers.

Also, the pheasants, hares, wild boars and all kinds of fresh fish that were brought in were not allowed to be eaten alone.

Collect all the harvests, and then distribute them equally to each army, let the chefs take the soup, and let everyone taste it.

Except for the army on duty today, everyone else can have a good night's rest.

Early tomorrow morning, you will lead everyone to cut down all the trees in Niuji Town and collect all the useful things, and we will pack them up and take them away in the morning the day after tomorrow.

By the way, other food can be eaten by the soldiers, that is, the dried chili must be left alone.

Now it is estimated that our intentions have been completely exposed, and Ning Yuan will definitely not let us have a good day like today, so we have to take the opportunity to store more supplies to keep out the cold. "

"Understood, I'll go down and make arrangements."

After nodding at Li Yufeng, Li Kun ran away excitedly.
