Nanyang County.

About ten miles outside the county town, there is a granary city. The outer wall of the city has been completed, and the laborers here are working overtime and working hard.

Some of these people were already very tired, but the officers and soldiers still refused to let them rest, forcing them to work crazily, exploiting every drop of their blood crazily.

From time to time, people would fall on the road carrying building materials, but the officers and soldiers turned a blind eye.

Standing on a high place and looking around, it can be said that there are corpses everywhere, and there are corpses and dying people everywhere.

These people died not because of war, but because of endless toil and exhaustion.

Standing on the high city wall, Yu Wenhua and Yu Wencheng saw such a scene, not only did they not have a trace of sympathy on their faces, but they also showed a very unhappy expression.

"It's been such a long time for these wastes, and the progress is still so slow!"

Yu Wenhuaji snorted angrily.

"Father, should we go out of Nanyang and catch some people from other counties?"

Yuwen Chengdu asked for instructions: "Now we need a lot of corvees. We have to build granaries and fortifications at the same time. The workload is too great."

"No."

Yu Wenhuaji shook his head: "It's too dangerous to go out of the city. Before the reinforcements from the Wagang Army arrive, we can't go out of the city! We only have less than [-] people in our hands now, and you know that Ye Fan is powerful. If If we are not careful, our entire army may be wiped out at any time!"

After finishing speaking, Yu Wenhuaji couldn't help sighing deeply: "If it wasn't for the incompetence of the emperor, how could Ye Fan take advantage of the world's loopholes? Now it is even more harmful to you and my father and son. Revolt!"

"Father!"

Yuwen Chengdu couldn't help but gritted his teeth: "What you said is extremely true. Recently, Li Yuanba's intention to expand our defense is very obvious. Your decision is really wise and mighty! But our current strength is indeed not enough. If If Li Yuanba wants to kill him, it will be difficult for us to resist!"

"Hateful Ye Fan!"

Yu Wenhuaji couldn't help but slammed his fist on the city wall, and said annoyedly, "I, Yu Wenhuaji, retreated and retreated again and again, but I still had to be persecuted by him and the emperor! Back then they wanted me to come to Nanyang to develop my power , but do not give any resource support, I endured it!"

"They asked me to pay for the construction of food and grass by myself, and I endured it!"

"They don't want me to exploit the people, and they don't want me to catch the strong men, so I obey!"

"But now that something has happened, the army has to be transferred from me. Our Nanyang is between Luoyang and Jiangdu. The Wagang Army must pass through our defense area. We don't have many troops to protect ourselves, but the emperor still Want to take the army out of our hands!"

Speaking of this, Yu Wenhuaji hated me so much: "What does he, Yang Guang, think of me? Does he come and go when he is called?"

"Father, don't worry!"

Yu Wencheng's face darkened: "One day, my son will lead an army into Luoyang City, capture Ziwei Palace, kill Ye Fan, capture Yang Guang, and let my father vent his anger!"

"it is good!"

Only then did Yu Wenhua and the anger on his face dissipate. He couldn't help stroking his beard happily, and said, "Our top priority now is to quickly build the granary. There is a lot of food in it! That Yang Guangzhou is always taking advantage of us, we should get back some capital!"

"My lord, my lord!"

Suddenly, the messenger came running wildly.

"Your Majesty has sent someone!"

Hearing the messenger's words, Yu Wenhuaji's heart skipped a beat subconsciously. The subconscious fear of the emperor still made his heart beat faster.

But he quickly reacted, his face darkened, and he said, "Who is it?"

"Pei Ju, the servant of the Yellow Gate!"

"So it's Pei Ju!"

Yu Wenhuaji immediately sneered: "Please come!"

"Yes!"

The orderly responded immediately, then quickly turned and ran away.

After a while, Pei Ju, escorted by messengers and a dozen bodyguards, cautiously came to Yu Wenhuaji.

"Yu Wenhuaji, how dare you stop the emperor's army from entering the city!"

Pei Ju's face was sullen, but he didn't dare to speak too harshly.

Although he was questioning Yu Wenhuaji, his tone seemed to be very lacking.

After all, this is Yu Wenhuaji's territory. If Yu Wenhuaji is provoked, given his current situation, he can be forced to jump over the wall in a matter of minutes. If he is slaughtered in a fit of rage, then the loss outweighs the gain. .

So Pei Ju had to be more or less polite.

Hearing Pei Ju's question, Yu Wenhuaji sneered even worse: "Pei Ju, why are you talking so much nonsense? If you are here to serve as a microphone for the emperor, then I advise you to go back and forth from wherever you are, and don't talk about me. Yu Wenhua is cruel and ruthless, because we are classmates, I will spare your life, otherwise if someone else comes and dares to enter my Nanyang City, I will make him come and go!"

"Yu Wenhuaji, don't go further and further down the wrong path! Your Majesty said, if you are willing to turn around in time, then you will forget all your past mistakes! What's more, you haven't made any big mistakes. You must Wake up in time!"

Pei Ju couldn't help being a little anxious.

The emperor asked him to lead the troops to Nanyang for a change of defense, trying to drive Yu Wenhuaji out of Nanyang. The meaning is also obvious, that is, to want this Nanyang granary.

After all, Nanyang's granary, as a transfer station, has also stockpiled a lot of grain from Huaiyuan. The grain here is definitely not as good as that in Luokou warehouse, but it can at least reach one tenth of that in Luokou warehouse. One scale, right?

Chapter 509 The Rapidly Expanding Wagang Army

One-tenth, what is that concept?

There are three thousand cellars in the Luokou warehouse, and each cellar stores eight thousand dans of grain!
