Text 3067 Burning Plains (28th)

In the pale sky, the periphery of Taizhou Junzhai is already crowded with refugees. Taizhou city guard Long Da is standing on the wall of Taizhou Junzhai, looking at the scene in front of him, his face is pale, only the clothes are visible. Ragged, almost unarmed people are like densely packed ants all over the Taizhou army village

"What the **** is going on?" Long Da felt that his entire head was buzzing, and his hand was tight on the handle of the knife. Even he had never seen so many people before, it was true. There are too many. If only tens of thousands of people, Taizhou will deliberately send soldiers to drive away, but now the number of people has exceeded his imagination, densely packed with people

Looking at it the same way, the rivers and tidal flats that are more than ten miles outside of Taizhou City can't be accommodated. Under the world, it seems that except for people are people. Taizhou Junzhai is not small when it comes to it. It was originally used to hoard military supplies. The length and width used are three or four li. It is not only a logistic base for hoarding supplies, but also a bridgehead fortress to stop the steppe people from going south again

There are 6,000 troops stationed and sufficient ordnance supplies are sufficient to support more than three months even under siege. The walls of the Taizhou Military Village are completely transported from the sunset mountains dozens of miles away. It was constructed with large stones in response to the bombardment of the frightening imperial Thor of the Yelv family. But now, looking at the refugees outside the military village, facing the prairie cavalry, the dragon’s fierce generals did not change their face, but felt The walls of the entire Taizhou Junzhai are trembling. The entire Taizhou Junzhai is completely like a reef before a huge wave. It may be submerged by countless people at any time.

"My lord, these refugees first attacked Huangcheng Mansion and then looted Kucheng County. I don’t know who leaked the news, saying that there is enough food for one month of food for one hundred thousand troops in the army village of Taizhou. All the returnees from the south are coming here." A guard of the Long family paled and reported to Long Da

"These refugees attacked Huangcheng Mansion and Kucheng County?"

Long Da heard that his face was even more gloomy. In order to supply 300,000 troops, China and Biyah, in addition to building seven or eight military towns on the front line of the river, also used the area near the military village as a logistics supply area. Chengfu and Kuxian were specialized in supplying Taizhou military villages. In order to promote the Northern Expedition, Longpo ordered a large number of supplies to be placed in these military towns. Waiting for the Yelu family to explode with the Fengtai Ministry, they immediately collected 300,000. The tiger and wolf army swooped down on the emperor, but unexpectedly, the news of the emperor’s presence in the emperor eventually made it impossible for the Long family to order a northward move.

The Fengtai Department in the north seemed so arrogant. Who knew it was so unbearable. In just one short night, the allied forces of the Empire and the Yelu family reversed the entire battle on the Han River in one fell swoop. Not only Mongoluo died. After being cut off, even the entire Fengtai tribe of more than 200,000 people were strangled cleanly by their original allies. The opportunity for the Long Family to move north was wasted in vain, and the Emperor's return to the south was completely annihilated. After Long’s northward entry to regain the emperor’s mind, he is still stuck in the big quagmire of the Zhongbian court and has not been pulled out. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be such an explosive situation in a blink of an eye.

Tens of millions of Chinese and Bianlian people are returning south! The flow of so many people is like a blazing prairie pour into the entire river area, not only the situation that the southern area of ​​the river is hard to settle down is completely disrupted, but even the 300,000 Zhongbia stationed in the river area. The army has been hit,

In fact, Long Po did not think that these refugees would dare to attack these areas where troops were stationed, but the situation was far more complicated than Long Po had imagined. These south return refugees were congested in the north of the river, although Hungry hard, but at least I still think that as long as you cross the big river, you can eat. Who knows that only after crossing the big river, the scene here is not even as good as the north of the big river. In the north of the big river, the Yelu family ruled. Cruel, but at any rate, there was still some soup and water. After crossing the big river, it was discovered that there was no food prepared here, but they were required to eat according to the management of each place, although all places along the river were set up in accordance with the order of the court. , But so many people came in at once, and the food in various places was almost reduced by the melting of the sun, and millions of mouths, even if all the stocks and some of the military relief food were taken out, it would be just a drop in the bucket. /

"Obviously already overwhelmed, why let the 300,000 army be pressed on the river line, not to mention wasting the army, but also to make the Nangui become more congested." Some people proposed to relieve the pressure on food from the court. , Asked the 300,000 troops stationed on the river to retreat to the rear. At first, Long Po did not agree. Although the Yelu family had negotiated with China and Biya, the Yelu family had completely turned over during the Hanshui War, and now there is no more in the north. No one dares to say that he will not attack Nandong again, but some ministers said, "Such millions of refugees are still crowded on the river. Even if Yelu wants to go south, he can't cross the river. Can he still have wings? Flying over the river won't make it!"

Long Po, unable to withstand the pressure, can only issue an order to temporarily withdraw the garrison to reduce food consumption and release food exports to help the victims

The army retreats. The military villages that were originally under the protection of the army and stockpiled military supplies are like shells exposed after rising and falling tides, exposed to millions of wailing refugees from the south. As a result, It is conceivable that, under the impetus of the people, the riots spreading across the large river area will be like a blowout. This is not only the case of the Taizhou Junzhai, but also the other Junzhai stocking materials. Dajun It is possible to evacuate. These army stockpiles full of supplies cannot be withdrawn at all. The refugees’ eyes have long been on the location of the army’s rations. They dare not earlier because the army is stationed here. Now, the army has retreated fifty miles. What's more to be afraid of! And these are all Chinese soldiers, can they kill Zhongbia himself? If you want to eat, go to these military villages. Even if it only leaks a little, it is enough for everyone to eat once, and then you have the strength to continue to the south!

"You are also my Zhongbian soldiers anyway, are you just watching us starve to death like this?" Some of the refugees yelled, a pair of hungry red eyes and withered arms, so that the middle of the military village The soldiers of Biya looked at their hearts trembling. Under the rule of the steppe people, these Chinese and Biya people were severely malnourished.

"This is all military resources. Those who trespass on military resources die! The army is fifty miles away and is already on the way back. If you don't want to die, leave immediately!" Long Da stood on the military village with a cold expression, sternly. Raising his hand, above the military village, the Zhongbia bows are completely full, and the shimmering arrows are facing the crowd below. The atmosphere is extremely tense, like a tight thread, once it collapses. Broken down is a sea of ​​blood, and the hands of the archer in Junzhai are trembling slightly. With so many people, all of them are compatriots from China and Bahrain, if they all charge up, would it really be impossible to shoot? Watching Junzhai on the front line The bows and arrows lined up, the crowd below is also a little commotion, the military's oppression is still there, although the refugees have attacked the local government, but they still have some inner hairs against the real military village,

"We are from China and Biyah. Why are the bows and arrows facing the steppe people pointing at us!"

"When the prairie people came, they immediately left us and fled, and now they are facing us with bows and arrows. Are you from China and Biya?"

"I just want to eat once, so I can continue southward when I'm full!" There was a boiling rebuke from the refugees

"Go back, all here are army rations. If you eat the rations, you must die too!" The general looked ugly and waved his hand. At this moment, a cold light flew out from the position of the military village and drilled. It entered the neck of a refugee below, blood was splattered, and the metal head of the arrow cluster came out from the back of the refugee’s neck. It was a feather arrow that shot directly through the refugee’s throat, the boss with bulging eyes. The body slumped down, and the whole scene fell silent. Both sides watched all this in a dumbfounded manner. The military archer who was shooting arrows also looked dull. This is a recruit who has no combat experience at all. He has been pulling his bow for so long. , With sore hands, I unconsciously let go

"It's over!" Long Da's face was defeated, and the situation he had controlled was ruined by this arrow.

"Killed! The army has killed! Just move forward if you don't want to die." Someone inside the refugees shouted, the crowd rushed together, and the soldiers on the walled city were completely messed up, watching the army rushing forward. The refugees in Zhai Shiqiang are all at a loss.

"At this time, what are you still hesitating about, shoot! Even if you are accused, you must not let the Taizhou Army Village fall into the hands of these refugees" Long Da shouted with an iron face, he was also the general of the Long family anyway , The sturdy prairie people have also fought several times, knowing that the situation has been completely out of control, and shouting the order, countless arrows from the Taizhou military village flew down, and the refugees below were hit by arrows, but there were too many people. , The crowd couldn’t even turn around. Before the body of the arrow hit in the front fell, it was pushed forward by the refugees behind

The clothes of these refugees are messy, most of them are still barefoot. In order to restrict the escaping of the slaves in Central and Bahia, the people in the prairie did not even give shoes. Many of them were holding various kinds of equipment that were temporarily found in their hands. Sweepingly speaking, wooden sticks, hoes, dung forks, and even bamboo poles with a sharp diagonal cut. With the impulse of the crowd, they only know to go forward and forward.

Taizhou Junzhai is a logistic base for hoarding supplies. The trench itself is not wide and deep. Although the wall is strong, but the height is average. Now facing people who are flooding like a sea tide, the shooter above shoots seven or eight times in a row. Arrow clusters, seven or eight crude wooden ladders finally leaned against the wall of the village. Under the wall, in the trenches, there were corpses everywhere. People who were not killed by the arrows were slowly wriggling and struggling, and countless refugees had been clamored. Get up, especially when I heard the false news that there are 100,000 troops in the military village for a year’s food, no matter what kind of arrows are flying down, like a wave of waves, it is the overwhelming crowds hitting the army village in Taizhou. ,

"Come on, rush up if you want to survive"

Hundreds of simple long ladders are leaning on the crenels, and a dozen refugees are squeezed by the foot of each ladder to prevent the defenders from pushing down the simple long ladder. Among the refugees, those who are relatively brave and brave It's the edge of the ladder. Either bare hands, or a sharpened wooden stick, without protection, desperately climbing towards the army village, such a scene, even if it appears on the four walls of the army village in Taizhou,

"Everyone hold on, the army is already on its way back"

On the wall of the wall, Long Da looked desperately at the foreground. The sabre in his hand had already chopped down seven or eight refugees in a row, and his mouth was still screaming. Six thousand defenders faced at least a hundred thousand in front of him. The onslaught of the refugees could still be supported from the beginning. As the loss increased, the soldiers on the top of the city were rapidly decreasing, and there were still too many refugees climbing above the city to see the end. This kind of killing The scene of endless killing is what made the Taizhou defenders feel desperate. Long Da did not know that the number of refugees gathered outside the Taizhou Junzhai at this moment was not a hundred thousand at all, but nearly one million. There is only one Taizhou. Junzhai can't stop it at all, but even so, Longda has no chance to retreat. It is true that the materials in Taizhou Junzhai are far from comparable to food.

Half a day later, the burning black smoke of Taizhou Junzhai went straight into the sky, and Taizhou Junzhai fell. One by one, the red-eyed refugees rushed into the warehouses in Taizhou Junzhai. After opening the gates of the Taizhou Junzhai warehouses, they all went all the way. I was dumbfounded. I didn’t see the piles of food. There were rows of well-maintained soldiers. A well-maintained bow and arrow and long spears almost occupied three-quarters of the army village in Taizhou. The actual amount of rations was even rumored. Not in half of Chengdu,

"Taizhou Junzhai has a total of 6,000 defenders, how could it be lost? What is Long Dadi doing!"

While rushing to the Dahe Road, Long Po received the news of the fall of Taizhou Junzhai~IndoMTL.com~ His face suddenly became pale. Taizhou Junzhai was originally not a granary hoarding military rations, but the Long family bought it at a high price. The warehouses of ordnance and war equipment that came were originally intended to be used to counterattack the Imperial Capital, to equip the liberated slaves of China and Biya, just like what the Long Family did in Daizhou, they became the strongest support for the Long Family to attack the Imperial Capital, but Long Po did not expect that this batch of ordnance would fall into the hands of the slaves of Central Byanan in this form.

"If the order continues, the river garrison will immediately move into the river area"

Long Po took a deep breath, and said with a heavy nose, the outflow of Taizhou ordnance is completely out of control. The refugees with weapons will inevitably begin to spread to other areas of the river channel madly. Unable to suppress it, it was a great catastrophe. Long Po seemed to have felt that the conflict of thousands of people had converged into an unspeakable wave of anger, and the **** breath wafted from far away. It was no longer a relief at this time. It is suppression, but in the final analysis, it is still food. Without food, would it be possible to kill all the tens of millions of people in China and Biyadh? Just as his order was just given, a Chinese and Biyaan cavalry also galloped from a distance.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is leaving for the south!"

No matter how good Long Po’s temper is, the river channel has already been messed up. The emperor is returning to the south at this time. Which bastard’s proposal is to let the emperor watch me how Long Po kills. Of it!
