In the second month, as Zhu Su expected, the Yuan army did not continue to attack the city. After all, since they had decided to fight a protracted war with the city, they did not miss that one month. The so-called liquid leeks were weak again.
We are exhausted. We have been attacking the city for two consecutive months. If we don't attack again in the bright moon, the price paid will definitely be much higher than the previous two months. It is better to simply take a good rest for one month.
The Yuan army divided some people and began to cut down trees to continue building simple catapults. They quickly mobilized their legs to chisel stones suitable for catapults in the surrounding area, and used stones to conquer Changli County.
The other group of people were looking at the Han soldiers who had been released in the camp, looking extremely wary.
"Damn it, they are not soldiers of the Yuan army, nor are they prisoners? Why are they sent to guard them?"
"That's all if we don't give them weapons or armor. We don't even give them a bite of porridge or rice. Do we want to starve them to death?"
"They have also gone through life and death for the Great Yuan, why are they treated so poorly?"
The Han soldiers were aggrieved. The food and grass from the army had not yet arrived, so they distributed food and weapons to the released Mongolian prisoners last night. However, the Han soldiers were hungry all night and were very annoyed by the Mongolian soldiers who were holding weapons.
They were surrounded. Naturally, some people stood up and were filled with righteous indignation.
"What are you talking about? If you dare to make noise again, you will be punished as inciting mutiny!" A Mongolian general on horseback shouted at the noisy Han people. "Who knows if there are any spies among us who were specially mixed in by the Ming army?
?”
"Besides, when we were at the Ming Army, didn't those Ming people feed us quite well? What if Ming missed one meal? Could they have been hungry for several days in a row when we were at the Ming Army?
You’re full, hey!”
That Mongolian general was also one of the Mongolians who were deliberately starved by Zhu Su in the prisoner camp. Ruming had the power to detain the Han troops. It is difficult to say that he did not deliberately avenge his private revenge and make himself proud.
.
Seeing that the Mongolian troops who were guarding them all had their arrows on their bowstrings, although the Han troops were angry, they could only lower their heads and dare not speak out. Someone murmured in a low voice: "Those friendly troops are not as good as those who are bright and angry."
The army respects him and so on."
"Oh, what kind of friendly forces? They all support the Mongolians." Someone responded with a sarcastic tone. "Who told them that in the Yuan Dynasty, they could support the Mongolian court instead of the Chinese people."
"He's just a servant."
There was a moment of silence, as the dissatisfaction in the hearts of the Han people was getting deeper and deeper. However, the Mongolian general thought that he had subdued the Han people, and felt that he had vented the bad breath he had suffered in the Ming army, and became even more complacent.
"Idiot, you are hated by others and don't know it." Among the crowd, Zhang Yu hid silently in the crowd and glanced coldly at the increasingly arrogant Mongolian general. Just don't worry about it.
Feeling the lingering hunger, he forced himself to think about the current situation.
"We can't even bring out the food to calm the morale of the army. It seems that Lord Guantong's troops did not carry enough food and grass. The prince of the Ming Dynasty is not an ordinary person.
To add to the worries of the army, more than 20,000 prisoners were sacrificed with their legs stretched out."
"Is there a better way to spend food and grass? That's right. Although there is no food here, Prime Minister Naha of the Left has been out harvesting grass and grain for several months after leaving the master. There should be enough food in the main army. Here
It can be traveled back and forth in two months from Yongpingfu Port, where the main force is located."
"And among the Ming army, I think the loss of food and grass was even worse. When they were in the city, they had seen the Ming army take out military rations to help the victims many times. If there was no competition to see who could run out of food first, it was obvious that they needed to support the refugee people in the city.
The Ming army is in an even more unfavorable situation."
"etc?"
Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed through Zhang Yu's mind. "Could it be that the Ming army wants to?"
Despite Zhang Yu's courage, he couldn't help but trembled with shock at the whimsical idea that suddenly popped into his mind. He looked around and saw that the Yuan army around him was unprepared and was still following the plan.
Just do whatever you want.
"If this is really the case, then the victory or defeat of this battle depends on Mingyue!" Zhang Yu shouted in his heart.
He had no intention of expressing his idea in the newspaper. He, Zhang Yu, was not a seven-foot man, so how could he not have pride in his heart? He had been bullied and suppressed by the Mongols for many years, and now that the decline of the Ming Dynasty had become apparent, he himself was the core
Yuanting worked hard to humiliate his Han people?
Rather than die in battle as a hawk of Yuanting, it is better to find another Ming master. He Zhang Yu also has ambitions in his heart. The Ming Dynasty is like the Ming Dynasty rising like the moon, so it is better to simply surrender to the Ming Dynasty. Simply make contributions to the Han people in the Ming Dynasty and let his name go down in history.
Carrying the seven-foot body of a man.
"If not, we can take advantage of Mingyue's situation to send a certificate of surrender to the Ming Dynasty..." Zhang Yu, who was hiding in the crowd, began to think.
Of course, there was still nothing unusual about his face, and no Mongolian noticed that one of the Han people had the intention of abandoning his Yuan and joining the Ming Dynasty...
…
At Youshi, a Yuan army was trekking along the official road.
There is a mountain pass called "Qingshan Pass" that separates Changli County and Yongping Prefecture. In history, a few years later, Ming Dynasty General Xu Dahui set up a fortress pass here, named "Qingshan Pass".
It is used to guard the north and south of Ji Town. However, Mingyue, this place is just a valley where two mountains meet. Although there are several sections of the Great Wall here, they are also in disrepair and are basically useless.
"Faster, faster!" Among the Yuan troops, Nai'er Buhua waved his riding whip while urging the long grain transport team on the road. The riding whip in his leg crackled as he swung it.
There was a loud noise, adding a bit of a sinister atmosphere. When the Yuan soldiers who were struggling to push the grain cart passed by, they couldn't help but shrink their necks and walk a little faster.
"Sir, the road is difficult, and the men have tried their best." A lieutenant general advised with a grimace. "The terrain here is not as good as the grassland, so we are in no hurry. Lord Guantong, if you have enough food to survive the bright moon, please ask them."
If the bright moon can deliver the food, everything will be safe."
"The Han people have a saying called 'Long nights and many dreams', what do I know!" Nai'er Buhua gave this man a sideways look. "The Ming army's release of prisoners last month was too strange. There is always something wrong with Ye Chang in my heart."
A premonition..."
Among the Guantong soldiers, Nai'er Buhua was a thoroughgoing radical. Last month, he strongly appealed to Ye Chang to get angry and directly took prisoners from Dongchangli City. Guantong was afraid that there might be some hidden agenda among the Han prisoners.
The Ming army who caused the rebellion, Nai'er Buhua's suggestion was "Kill all those Han people." He and others were talking about some Han people. In his blind eyes, the lives of the Han people were nothing.
However, those Han prisoners captured more than 10,000 people and secretly killed more than 10,000 of their own Han troops. However, Guantong's indecisive character could not make him decisive. Therefore, Guantong accepted the released "wise general" Hong Boyan.
Tamerlane put forward the seemingly more reliable suggestion of "adjusting food and fighting for a long time", and sent Nailbuhua, who was slightly injured, to Naha to join the main army to transport the required food and grass.
But Nai'er Buhua still felt that this move was inappropriate. He once personally led people to attack the city wall in Changli County, and was then driven eastward by the Ming army. It was at that time that he suffered some minor injuries.
When the Ming army attacked the city wall in that month, he once saw a few people walking around among the thousands of troops in the ruins of the central tower, east of the three banners of the Ming princes, looking at them.
Those Yuan troops who looked like wolves and tigers were like invisible figures.
Those three figures gave Nai'er Buhua's wild heart a deep shock: a prince of the Ming Dynasty with such courage and a commander-in-chief of the Ming army who could remain motionless in the midst of thousands of troops fighting, must be irresistible.
generation!
Therefore, he always believed that the wrong Ming army must be completely wiped out with lightning speed, and he could not give them the slightest chance to breathe. He just wanted to let them take a breath, and his Yuan army needed it.
If you are facing the wrong situation, it is very likely that you can strike with a decisive blow as fast as thunder!
