Chapter 669

    On the official road, a huge baggage team composed of unknown carriages is moving forward as quickly as possible.


    From beginning to end, the whole team seemed to stretch without end, meandering along the official road.


    Twenty thousand soldiers escorted the whole team from beginning to end.


    From the faces of these soldiers, we can see the feeling of fatigue and burnout.


    "Boss, it''s just transporting grain and grass. Do you need so many of us? Normally, four or five thousand people escorting these grain and grass are enough?"


    In the middle of the baggage team, a general in a deputy general''s uniform complained with the main officer beside him impatiently.


    "You don''t know how chaotic our Hantong county is recently. Do you think those big people in the family will rest assured that four or five thousand people escort so much grain and grass?"


    The chief officer was equally impatient, but the task was on him and had to be carried out, so he just stared at his adjutant and said with hatred.


    "Aren''t those guys who call themselves guerrillas? I really don''t know how these guys are trained. They appear and disappear one by one. Although the number is small, the combat effectiveness is very terrible. When we have fewer people, we are directly swallowed. When there are more people, they run away in advance. It''s really annoying."


    The adjutant said angrily.


    "Yes, so now the family has been shrinking all their strength in every city, and has given up all the villages in the county. I hear that the villages are almost all developed by the group of guerrillas into what they call the" base areas ". If our people are in the vicinity of the villages, the villagers in these villages may become the guerilla lines, which makes people scalp hair.


    The chief officer sighed and was helpless.


    "Boss, what do you think the villagers are thinking? Why are you willing to be a guerilla for the guerrilla forces?"


    The adjutant was puzzled.


    The chief officer looked at the adjutant and said, "we caught some villagers back and asked some information. Do you know what those guerrillas will do when they enter the village?"


    "What to do? Grab grain? Threaten villagers to be their eyelid, otherwise they will kill the villagers."


    The adjutant understood with his own habits.


    "Fart! When people''s guerrillas enter the village, they call the villagers and villagers enthusiastically! Then they take the initiative to help the villagers solve their difficulties! Even help the villagers cultivate and clean their rooms. If the villagers can''t eat, the guerrillas will provide some food within their power!"


    The chief officer followed the aide''s head, and then said, "why do all the villagers become the guerilla lines? Because the guerrillas and they promise that if the guerrilla forces and the power behind the river can overturn what we have in Han Dong county, then all the land will be stripped out of our Liu''s hands and returned to those villagers!"


    "Ah?! so exaggerated?! are those guerrillas crazy?!"


    The adjutant was shocked.


    "Are they crazy? I don''t know. I just know that Liu''s control over Handong county is being weakened. Maybe it won''t take long. Except for those cities, the whole Handong county will fall into the control of Jiang Fan!"


    The chief officer spat hard.


    "Forget it, boss, they''ll go crazy if they go crazy. It''s no use thinking about those crooked ways. We have more soldiers and stronger strength than them, so they have to wait to be destroyed by us! What about the powerful guerrillas? Now we''ve all returned to the city and defended it, don''t they have nothing to do?"


    The Deputy official hummed.


    "Forget that a few days ago, a guerrilla disguised as a caravan successfully entered Yanggu County and killed all the officials belonging to our Liu family in Yanggu County? The county government granary in Yanggu County was looted, and all the food was distributed to the people in Yanggu County. Until now, the family dare not send anyone to Yanggu County to clean up the mess."


    The chief officer glanced at the adjutant and said unhappily.


    "Cough, that''s also because the defensive force of Yanggu County is too weak. There are only more than 200 old, weak and disabled soldiers in the whole county. Of course, they can''t stop the guerrillas. But in other big cities, the guerrillas can''t help it. For example, we arranged 20000 people to escort food and grass this time. I don''t believe the guerrillas dare to attack as before."


    The adjutant said with a strangled neck.


    "We''d better be careful. The food and grass we escort this time is of great significance to the army besieging Heyang. If we arrive late, there will be big problems."


    "Boss, what''s the matter with them? 300000 troops besieged Heyang and couldn''t get in? I heard that Heyang city was just more than 10000 defenders, with 30 times the strength advantage, but finally chose to use the siege method to consume. Isn''t it stupid? Although there are more people in Heyang City, the consumption of grain will be exaggerated, but 300000 soldiers eat horses Chewing, the food consumed every day is also very terrible. "


    "How much pressure does our logistics have? To put it mildly, in case Heyang garrison finds that there is not enough food, they will be cruel and take all the people''s food. As long as the military food is guaranteed, how long can Heyang support under this blockade even if the people starve?"


    "It doesn''t need much, but if it can last for about a year, we''ll be dragged down by the food and grass needs of 300000 troops. I don''t know what they''re thinking!"


    The adjutant''s complaints grew louder.


    The chief officer thought about it and decided not to hide his adjutant.


    He opened his mouth and said, "it''s said that the Heyang garrison took out a new weapon with terrible lethality. The 300000 army was defeated by this weapon for the first time. More than 100 people were killed in less than half an hour by the power of weapons, and our siege team hasn''t even met the city wall of Heyang."


    "What? It''s impossible? What weapon is so exaggerated? Even with human life, it''s enough to push Heyang flat?"


    The adjutant looked incredulous.


    "In addition to ensuring the food consumption of the army, another main task for us to send food and grass this time is to determine the authenticity of the news. Once it is determined to be true, the family requires to get the relevant weapons at all costs! That will become the biggest guarantee for the family Zhuolu Central Plains!"


    The chief officer said in a deep voice.


    As soon as the voice fell, there was a commotion in front of the team.


    The chief officer was stunned. Then he shouted, "everyone, be on alert! What''s going on ahead!"


    Soon, a soldier came with a horse. When he was far away, he shouted, "general, there was a landslide in the front, and the falling rocks blocked the whole official road!"
