C83 (2/2)

”Big brother, what should we do?”

Yang Lin looked left and right, then waved his hand to the guards, who tactfully retreated. Yang Lin then smiled and said to everyone.

”We must get the xanthopanax to snatch the rations, get enough for them to eat for at least half a year before defeating them and sending them to the Youzhou. Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun already hate him so much. If they don't kill him, they won't be able to explain it to the imperial government. ”

”Ah …”

All the brothers were shocked, looking at Yang Lin in confusion. If he allowed xanthopanax to snatch the food, who knows how many hundreds of people would suffer? Of course, Yang Lin knew what the others were thinking, he nodded at everyone and patiently explained everything to them.

”How much food do the people have? Even if the xanthopanax wanted to rob them, it was to rob those large family s, and the food in those large family s were grown by the common people. Even if the xanthopanax did not snatch it from them, they would not have taken out a single grain to help the citizens.

”Oh, Big Brother is right.”

Only then did the brothers start laughing. Although they didn't have a consciousness of rank, they still knew that those Scholars s and Wealthy Classes were worth fighting over. Other than Zhang Fei and Xu Zhu, the rest of the brothers were all poor farmers.

Bo was leading his seventy thousand soldiers and fleeing in panic like a dog that had lost its home. It was a mess along the way. In fact, there weren't that many casualties in the war. There were less than 20,000 casualties on the battlefield, most of them later on. The wounded soldiers had long since been thrown away. The soldiers who couldn't keep up with the team also disappeared without a trace. There were even some soldiers who took the opportunity to make mistakes.

After entering the Ying Yang territory, Bo let out a huge sigh of relief. After being so far away from the Yang Di, he had yet to see the Imperial army give chase, nor did he see the cavalry of Youzhou intercept them.

”Hahaha …” The heavens are on my side. Those idiots must have thought that we were going to escape to Mount Song and ambush us there. I had to go to the Lunan and take them by surprise. ”Pass down the order, let's go to the nearby village and search for grain. We will rest here for a while.”

The soldiers who had been running for nearly a day immediately rushed towards the nearby village upon hearing the order. In a short while, the entire village was filled with the cries of sheep and dogs. Soldiers of the Yellow Scarves was very familiar with robbing and had a lot of combat experience.

As the xanthopanax was in a hurry and didn't have any logistics support, the only way out was robbery. The citizens of Ying Chuan were truly unlucky, they were only now active in the Ying Chuan area, and at first, they were just fighting for the Wealthy Class and Scholars, but later, they were even fighting for the ordinary citizens. Some of the commoners who were robbed to death saw that they were going to starve to death, so they also joined the xanthopanax.

The Soldiers of the Yellow Scarves that returned home full of rewards went back to their temporary camp, all of them smiling merrily. Look at those xanthopanax soldiers, carrying food on their shoulders, holding chickens, ducks, pigs, sheep, and even some other people's cattle, they looked just like a group of bandits.

Some of the xanthopanax's soldiers started a fire to cook, some started slaughtering pigs and lambs, and not long later, smoke started to rise from the temporary camp. Just as they were salivating over a feast, a large troop of cavalry slowly approached from the south.

Bo Cai no longer had a set up scout under his command, and only him, Peng Tuo, Peng Tuo and his hundred personal guards remained. Due to the unbearable hunger, the personal guards were walking around nearby. As the cavalry of Youzhou approached, they were still dreaming.

”Enemy attack …”

”Enemy attack …”

janissaries finally noticed the approaching cavalry of Youzhou and immediately shouted at the top of her lungs. As she ran, she escaped into the temporary camp. Soldiers of the Yellow Scarves who was slaughtering pigs and sheep were all stunned, they could no longer run, they could only look at Generals, clearly begging him, wait for us to finish eating, then run.

”Dang, dang, dang, dang …”

The emergency gongs began to ring in the camp, urging the soldiers to throw down their food and pick up their swords and guns to fight. After running for a day, the soldiers didn't have any strength left. Some of them just grabbed a handful of rice and started to eat as they ran. Some of the soldiers picked up their knives, cut off a piece of raw meat, and started chewing on it.

Bo would never be willing to lose, he would never surrender so he immediately sent herald to call for everyone to prepare for battle. Bo finally understood that the imperial government would never let him off. Others may get amnesty from the imperial government, but Zhang Jiao, Zhang Mancheng and him were the ones who would never be forgiven. As long as there was a glimmer of hope, he would fight to the end and would never surrender.
