Among the half of the "urban household registrations", those who actually live inside the city walls may not even be one-third.
All along, the only people who can accept the protection of the city wall are those rich families who are qualified to build houses in the city.
As the soldier suggested today, expelling the people in the city means expelling these people to live outside the city. In this way, the food pressure in Zhangzi County can be reduced by more than half in an instant.
……
As for the people who were expelled from the city, only they themselves know what their future fate will be.
If they are lucky, when the war is over and the city is lifted, these people might be able to return to live in their own homes.
And if you are unlucky, let alone go home...
Even insisting on surviving until the end of the war is an unspeakable extravagant hope for many people.
"Expel the people?"
"No, no."
Almost subconsciously, after Sun Jian heard this suggestion, he immediately rejected the other party aloud.
In his heart, as the leader of the army, even as the prefect of Changsha, as Marquis of Wu Cheng, he played the role of a strong man in this Chinese world.
And the so-called strong should protect the weak from disasters in times of crisis in order to be called strong?
If you only know how to exploit and bully blindly, or even do anything to achieve your own goals...
What is the difference between such a person and the traitorous minister who sits high above the court?
He, Sun Jian, disdains this.
……
"Okay, don't bring up such suggestions in the future."
"Even if someone leaves, it should be me who led the army to leave here."
"Don't forget, the eldest son county was involved in the war because of us. Could it be that for our purpose, we can ignore the lives and deaths of tens of thousands of people?"
Taking a deep breath, Sun Jian slowly looked away, looking at the soldier beside him.
"It's not wise to have more enemies with fewer. Can any of the soldiers sent out to ask for help come back alive?"
"Has any of them brought news of reinforcements?"
……
"My lord, no...no."
Arching his hands towards Sun Jian, the soldier's expression was extremely bitter.
"Almost all the soldiers sent out for help recently were caught by enemy soldiers patrolling outside the city shortly after leaving the city at night, and took them away."
"Even the very few people who were not caught have no news, and no one has come back to our place..."
……
"If nothing else happens, we should already be on an isolated island."
……
After hearing what the soldier said, Sun Jian didn't say anything more.
He just waved his hand and let the soldier go to rest first.
"Hey, I hope you will receive my request for help here, and act as soon as possible."
Looking at the distant sky, Sun Jian sighed again, and frowned tightly.
"If no one comes here to help after three days, I'm afraid they don't need to take the initiative to attack the city. We will be the first to fall into civil strife because of the lack of food."
……
……
……
His gaze came to Niu Fu's side.
At this moment, on the outskirts of Zhangzi County, Niu Fuzheng gathered with several generals and counselors under his command to discuss the next countermeasures.
Sun Jian received the news of Zhang Yan's victory, and Niu Fu naturally also received relevant information.
It's just that compared to Sun Jian's excitement, Niu Fu's heart was only full of emotion when he heard the news.
To be honest, victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs, so at this moment, whether it is Li Que, Guo Si and others, or Niu Fu, the commander in charge of leading the team, in his heart, he is not sad about the death of Fan Chou and Li Su. Emotions.
Not to mention Fan Chou and Li Su, even a few of them, why aren't they mentally prepared to die on the battlefield anytime, anywhere?
However, compared with the death of Fan Chou and others in battle, Niu Fu was more concerned about the fact that there was an army of 8 to [-] people, an extremely elite army with high morale, and it was possible to rush towards him anytime, anywhere.
That's what's really killing him.
……
From the perspective of the size of the army alone, what Niu Fu is currently leading is actually the largest army in Xiliang, and even the entire Eastern Han court.
After several reorganizations, Niu Fu now has more than 8 people under his command.
And apart from the soldiers, there are countless generals in their army, and their force is tyrannical.
Even though Xu Rong, who was hailed as a handsome talent by Dong Zhuo, is now leading troops to attack Suanzao and contain the troops of Cao Cao and others, he still has Li Que, Guo Si and other fierce generals on the battlefield on his side.
More importantly, he also has an advantage that other armies of the Eastern Han Dynasty do not have—that is, Jia Xu.
At present, the army led by Niu Fu is the only military adviser in Dong Zhuo's forces in Xiliang who is in charge of making plans.
……
"Wenhe, you should also take a look at the news from other battlefields."
"I don't know what should I do next?"
Looking up at Jia Xu who was standing in the corner, Niu Fu hesitated for a moment, but still took the initiative to ask.
In fact, from the perspective of army strength, Niu Fu is not afraid of confronting the army led by Zhang Yan head-on.
He has elite soldiers, good generals, and advisers.
If the two sides really put up a battle and fight on the plain, Niu Fu feels that his winning rate is at least [-]%.
After all, what the Xiliang iron cavalry is best at is charging and killing in the plains.
It's just that as Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, Dong Zhuojun's real "family", he also knows that now is not the time to be arrogant.
Dong Zhuo was at the most critical moment in Luoyang. If the Kwantung princes took advantage of the loopholes and really went to Luoyang, the loss would not only be in this battle, it would even affect the plans of Dong Zhuo, Li Ru and others.
Since there are professional counselors in the army, in order to maintain stability, it is natural to put the counselor's ideas first.
……
"Here, Niu Zhonglang..."
Seeing himself being called by Niu Fu, Jia Xu, who had been hiding in the corner of the military tent, sighed secretly, and then stepped forward.
He took the military newspaper in Niu Fu's hand, looked at it twice, and put it on the table.
After that, he almost didn't even have time to think, so he bowed to everyone present and said in a low voice:
"Niu Zhonglang, and everyone..."
"The current situation, according to my opinion, it is better for us to surrender to the rebels as soon as possible, so as to save everyone from the pain of fighting."
……
Chapter 61 Three Days
"Surrender, surrender?"
"Haha, Wen He's talking is still so interesting!"
……
"It's just Wenhe. Now it's wartime. Don't say such jokes again."
"Facing the rebels who may arrive here at any time, I don't know Wen He, how should we deal with it?"
Haha laughed twice, Niu Fu didn't care about Jia Xu's words, but took it as a joke, and continued to ask Jia Xu.
……
"This……"
Faced with Niu Fu's question, Jia Xu's face changed several times.
He really wanted to say that he wasn't joking just now, but seeing the expressions of Li Que and Guo Si beside him, he still didn't dare to say this in the end.
After picking up the military newspaper again and looking at it for a long time, Jia Xu sighed and analyzed the pros and cons of this battle to everyone:
"Hey, you guys don't know, it's not Jia I'm alarmist, it's just that if Zhang Yan leads an army here and attacks our food road from the rear, our army will definitely fight him."
"What if Sun Jian leads his troops out of the city and attacks us from the other side when our army is facing the battle?"
"The enemy army is powerful, and we will surely fall into the same situation as Sun Jian before."
……
"It is precisely because of this that no matter what, after the opponent's reinforcements arrive here, we must not face it head-on!"
Jia Xu swears to everyone.
……
"Oh? Then according to the military division's thinking, how should we arrange it?"
After hearing this, Niu Fu asked subconsciously.
"In the eyes of the military adviser, besides surrendering to the traitor, do we have no other plan to do?"
……
"No."
Sure enough, just as Niu Fu guessed, Jia Xu just hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, and then said:
"Besides, we are not helpless."
