V4.Chapter 51 (1/2)
The imperial concubines in the palace were also free-minded to fight and calculate. It can be seen that the siege of Rongren was not smooth.
But it was not so smooth to defend the city. The army discipline of the imperial forest army had been relaxed for a long time. Although there were many people, the combat power was extremely poor. In particular, Gu Xiaode was not noble enough at that time. After he could not suppress them, he took up another xuanjiawei and stood still with it. First, he complained about his limited energy, and then he ignored the soldiers and generals outside xuanjiawei.
This not only resulted in the failure of officers and soldiers in the imperial forest army, but also in the ignorance of officers.
Later, it was led by the grand division to let the nobles in the city gather together the private soldiers and bodyguards who were guarding their homes and yards, and then they were put into the royal forest army after being dispersed. Relying on the training and instruction that these private soldiers and bodyguards usually receive, they can barely hold down their positions. It can be seen how the imperial forest army has become desolate!
This is the city. Let's talk about some teachers who work for the king.
The latest army is the one that Su Xiuming and Shen zangfeng of Yanzhou defend Yanzhou. It is composed of 20000 Xiliang army and 40000 Donghu army. On the strength of the army, it is the best of the Wei Dynasty. But the number is too small! Even if they want to rescue the capital, they can't get away from it.
In addition, it will take some time for most of Donghu's people and xuanjiawei to come here.
The problem is that people are still missing after the expected arrival of the two sides.
It's easy for xuanjiawei to guess. Most of them are not very lucky. When he received the news, he had been fighting with the refugees. He couldn't get away from it for a while.
But Liu's side Even when Taiwei was asked privately by the grand master, he couldn't guarantee that the emperor was surrounded by such a big thing. The army in Donghu didn't say that it was time to mobilize a large number of people to serve the king. After all, Liu's family is still the subject of Wei Dynasty, and there are many Liu's blood in this emperor!
Even though Weiyuan Hou and Taiwei had a long-standing feud, Liu Xixian, the younger generation of Weiyuan Hou who had cultivated for many years, was still in the imperial capital?
But outside the city, there was no flow. The soldiers attacked the city day by day. The soldiers in the city never found any abnormality in the rear of the soldiers in any direction. What thoughts did Marquis Weiyuan have By this time, who can not be suspicious?
Xuanjiawei had only one hundred thousand men, and he had enough supplies for several months. He had fought in an open county. It was hard to say how many people and how many supplies he could have when he came back. Without the help of Weiyuan Hou, the emperor could only hope to support the Xiliang army. But the emperor and Xiliang are so far away. After the news is passed on, the army doesn't say that they can start from there. They have to choose the main general, select the soldiers, pack up their bags and prepare food and grass
It's still there without delay.
You need to know that mingpeitang has been fighting for more than ten years since Shen Xuan took over. Now all the people of mingpeitang's prestige are not in Xiliang. In case the people there have any thoughts It's hard to say.
The Qingzhou army may not be able to sit back like this, but it can't get away from itself - Zezhou hasn't fought down until now.
Therefore, the grand master ordered to hide the delay of Qin Wang's master, and privately ordered to collect the city's food for unified division.
The latter decision was opposed by many people: ”people are afraid that it will cause confusion.”
In fact, this is only one reason. The other reason is how much food can Li Shu have? The largest food reserve is still in the large households. It is because they have surrounded the city and are able to live in luxury. If they are collected together, even if they are given more than Li Shu, it's better to be assured and free in their own hands.
The Grand Master knew their mentality as well as his fingers, and said lightly: ”now it's chaotic, and there's plenty of food in store, and the town can hold it down! If we do not control them, how can they continue if they do not retreat in a few months? The city is still defended by people! Li Shu has not enough food in his hand. Once it is exhausted, will he sit down and die? Without their food, there will be chaos! It's better to exchange food for work and ask them to help build more works in the city. In their spare time, they can practice with private soldiers, or change hands for soldiers, or prepare for the future Can all the great emperors rely on our family and private soldiers? If it can be done, it depends on you! ”
He added that Duanmu family would take the lead in handing over the stored grain, ”together with the herbs accumulated by his granddaughter, they would also hand over them for public use.”
As for this, several other companies have been silent for a while, and they have also agreed one after another.
After all, what can we do in the future if the grand master is right and the emperor is besieged for a long time without saving food? A group of people born in the rich brocade heap can't stand the tragedy of people eating each other - they have to consider many children and grandchildren.
However, the big head has been handed over. No one can be so foolish as not to leave behind.
But it has played a great role in pacifying the people in the city. When I saw the grain delivered to the storehouse by car and piled up like a mountain, I felt a sense of peace from the patriarchal clan to the Li Shu.
But those who are not in charge think that it seems that so much food can be sustained for a long time.
