Chapter 159

At this time, Yang Long's army had already reached Black Rock City and camped ten miles away from the city.

The soldiers are divided into four ways.

The first route was led by Li Shanyan, with 10,000 troops, and surrounded the east gate.

The Second Route Army was led by Qi Delong, commanding 10,000 troops, and surrounded the West Gate.

The three-way soldiers were led by Qi Deqiang, commanding 10,000 troops, and surrounded the north gate.

The Chinese army of 20,000 was led by Yang Longzhu and attacked the south gate.

The so-called siege must be lacking, Yang Longzhu is an old fritter on the battlefield, this truth will not be understood. Knowing this, he still put on such a position, obviously not even giving Xue Banchuan a chance to escape.

50,000 people eat horses and chew every day is an astronomical number, the so-called three armies have not moved, grain and grass go first, and a steady stream of materials arrives every day.

Yang Longzhu knew very well in his heart that war was not only about the military, but also about the economy, politics, people's hearts, and so on. If the logistics can be done well, half of the battle will be won.

So he paid special attention to the problem of grain and grass.

Today's grain transport team came late, and the other party did not bring the required grain and grass to Yang Longzhi, and brought Luo Tie's corpse.

Looking at Luo Tie's corpse in the big tent, Yang Long was silent for a long time, and the air around him seemed to be much colder.

The team that failed to transport grain knelt outside the tent for a long time, trembling in the body.

"Kill!"

This was the first word Yang Long said after seeing Luo Tie's corpse, and with a wave of his hand, a piece of human heads fell to the ground.

Then, Yang Longzhu wrote a letter to Cheng Dalei and ordered someone to send it to Toad Village.

In the letter, he wrote only five words: "You are not afraid of death!"

Soon, he received a reply from Cheng Dalei, which was six words.

"If you want to fight, you will fight. ”

After seeing the letter, Yang Longzhi was furious, and immediately ordered troops, first broke the toad village, and then killed Xue Banchuan to take revenge.

Then, he quickly calmed down.

Cheng Dalei is definitely going to kill, whether he kills Luo Tie or not, this matter will not change. And now to kill, it definitely won't work.

The army had just set up camp, and it always seemed a little embarrassing to come back to attack Cheng Dalei. Moreover, if Xue Banchuan took the opportunity to sneak attack from behind, Yang Longzhu would fall into the point of being attacked by the enemy on his back, which was a taboo for soldiers.

Moreover, Cheng Dalei still holds his own grain channel in his hands, and if he cuts off his own grain channel, the 50,000 army will be in a desperate situation.

In this way, this Cheng Dalei doesn't seem to be able to offend too much.

Yang Longzhu is not only ruthless, but also naturally bent down, without this level of thick black academic attainments, he can't become today's king of Youzhou.

So, Yang Longzhu wrote another letter to Cheng Dalei, the content of the letter was brief: I know that you killed Luo Tie, killed it well, killed it right, killed it screaming, and if you commit the following crimes, you should be beheaded according to the law, there is no reason to talk about it. If you don't kill him, I'm going to kill him, and I'm thinking of rewarding you with something, and the food will be your reward. Of course, it would be better if you could come to me and do things.

After the letter was sent, Yang Longzhu soon received a reply from Cheng Dalei, and Cheng Dalei returned to his previous attitude in the middle of the letter.

"His Royal Highness the King of Youzhou, who spreads rumors about the light of the north, the backbone of the empire, and the king of Youzhou whom I will always worship:

After receiving your letter, I asked all the people in the cottage to read it together, and they were all impressed by your wisdom, and how many people were in tears and proud to read this letter."

『...... Of course, I really wanted to go to the king's side to serve, but I was so sick that I couldn't even get out of bed, so I could only pray for you in my heart and wish you a victory."

The inscription is: Your faithful little brother, the eternal admirer of the king of Youzhou, Cheng Dalei, the cavalry general of the camp of Youzhou Qingniu Mountain.

When reading this letter, Yang Longzhu did not have the disgusting feeling of Li Shanyan, but felt a faint chill through the letter.

He closed his eyes and recalled the first and only time he met Cheng Dalei. He was hunched over and wrapped in a torn jacket, and his speech and demeanor were full of flattery. It also includes gibberish letters handed to the royal city of Youzhou. It's like all kinds of villains in the city who are good at sycophants and speculation.

There is no doubt that I was deceived by him.

Those letters handed to Youzhou City were regarded as jokes by everyone, including Yang Longzhu. But while seeing it as a joke, he subconsciously despised Cheng Dalei.

To this day, Yang Longzhu understands better than anyone that there is no shortage of fierce people in this world who dare to face hard. At the same time, there is no shortage of nameless corpses in mass graves.

In this world, tough guys don't live long, but if they blindly bow their heads, no one will look down on them.

What I am afraid of is to be strong when I should be strong, and bow my head when I should bow my head.

Yang Longzhu is this kind of person.

Could it be that Cheng Dalei is also this kind of person...... Perhaps, he is a person more worthy of killing than Xue Banchuan.

No matter how much it is, appease this dog thief first, and then get rid of this thief when you break through Black Rock City, and then get rid of this thief when you go back.

Now what Yang Longzhu has to do is to attack the city.

......

Xue Banchuan in the city was not defenseless. It stands to reason that Yang Long stopped the army and pressed the border, there should have been a big household in the city, and they opened the city gate to welcome Yang Long to stop into the city, they didn't want to live and die with Xue Banchuan.

But this incident has not happened until now, the reason is that before this, Xue Banchuan invited the big families in the city to the city lord's mansion and held a dinner.

At the banquet, Xue Banchuan raised his glass and cried before drinking, and said: Yang Longzhu is not a thing, he wants to kill us all, but don't worry, I will protect you, everyone will live in the City Lord's Mansion in the future, and I will live and die with you.

In the name of protection, it is actually detention. imprisoned the wives and children of the big families in the city, Xue Banchuan was ruthless, and he had one meaning: if you want to live, everyone will live together, and if you want to die, everyone will die together.

Some of their children are in the army, and there is no way to rebel at this time, after all, their parents, wives and children are in the hands of Xue Banchuan.

really took refuge in Yang Longzhu, there is no doubt that Xue Banchuan will kill his wife and children.

Ruthlessness is a quality that no one lacks in the big men of this era.

In the face of Yang Long's army pressing, Xue Banchuan had only one attitude: no fight.

Anyway, my wife and children here have hot kang heads, or you have them, and you came from afar, and you will be blind if you don't have food for a day. Let's consume it, and see who can consume whom.

In addition to not fighting, Xue Banchuan also has a strategy: spreading rumors.

In the city, he publicized with great fanfare: Yang Longzhu is not a thing, he has been lustful since he was a child, his sisters and sisters, aunts and aunts...... He didn't let go of any of the women in the family. It is said that because he was overly greedy since he was a child, he couldn't grow up, and his wife slept for others, and he watched from the sidelines to satisfy a certain sense of stimulation. Otherwise, how could he not have a son until now......

This kind of word spread to Yang Long's camp in various ways, and rumors of this kind of thing really spread endlessly, and no one believed it, but there were always one or two brainless people who heard it and said: Oh, no wonder.

Rumors don't hurt, but he disgusts you.

There is no doubt that this strategy was devised by Cheng Dalei.
