After the siege was lifted, Laizhou City finally received supplies, and the dying people got a precious chance to breathe.
It would be even better without the sound of those cannons...
The rebels held the refugees hostage, burning, killing, and looting along the way.
People from villages and towns near Laizhou City gathered in the city to avoid the disaster. The excessive population backlog brought high load, and the siege caused the people in the city to set more stringent standards for resource allocation.
Smoke was already burning at the soup kitchen, but some figures huddled on the street corner did not move at all.
The farmers who still had some strength before the war were just trying their best to beg for a bowl of food to survive, and many of them still had wounds left on the city walls.
After the siege was lifted, Laizhou City finally received supplies, and the dying people got a precious chance to breathe.
But it was just a chance to breathe, far from being alive.
After all, even if there is no war. They already had their last breath left to hold on.
It would be nice if there were no sound of those cannons. The fields at home cannot be managed without people. If we don't go back, I'm afraid this year's output won't even be able to pay the land rent.
The guards who were brothers and sisters when they were guarding the city wall together a few days ago have now become the master soldiers holding the gates and not allowed to leave the city without permission.
Perhaps, as long as the continuous sound of fire and thunder outside the city stops, he can return to the land where he was born and raised.
Maybe he shouldn't have run out with the landlord.
He was a poor man with nothing, and only a pair of trousers in the shabby house except for the straw bed. Whenever his circumstances were slightly bad, he would still owe the landlord two bags of grain.
Why did you run away then?
What else can those bandit rebels take away from them?
As a result, even if you enter the city, you will still be hungry. They had to be dragged to the city wall to carry stones and wood.
But he was also a loser. How accurate was the rebel's cannon? Why did it hit him but not others?
Sima Zi huddled on the street corner holding his wounded arm.
"Ah, I seem to smell the fragrance of rice. The porridge pot must have been put out. I have to go, I have to go..."
"But I'm very sleepy again. How about taking a rest for a while? I'm afraid I'll fall down when I get up. I have no strength at all. I don't have any strength at all... I don't have any strength at all..."
"It would be better if I didn't leave my field..."
"It would be better if I didn't leave my field..."
"I should have died in that field..."
……………………
The Xinghe Army's special agent team had sneaked into Laizhou City. At this time, the young man was trying to shake the man in front of him awake.
It's a pity that this man who has gone cold obviously can't be woken up.
"Hey, I'm still wearing a pair of intact pants. If I hadn't met the master, I might have died worse than him!"
While not stopping his stupid companion, he stared at the street with vigilance, "We are all dead, so there is no difference between miserable and miserable. We have to live with the Huang family as well as possible!"
"That is!"
Although Laizhou City is prosperous, this prosperity is only on the surface. Underneath the prosperity lies a large group of ignorant people.
The base area built by Huang Yi was very different from the cities of this era, especially the atmosphere.
This made those who came out of the Xinghe Army straighter and more confident.
The most lacking thing in the precarious Laizhou City was confidence. Coupled with the relaxation brought about by the rescue, infiltration work became relatively easy.
The Xinghe Army was not in a hurry to attack and just stayed in the trenches.
The rebels kept firing artillery, but they couldn't see the Xinghe army being in chaos, and they didn't dare to charge directly into the formation.
Laizhou City was eager to completely relieve the siege, and the officials in the city were eager for a share of credit to help them avoid Chongzhen's accountability.
In the entanglement between the three forces, the two parties in urgent need of change began to put out their tentacles.
The news of the rebels' request for recruitment had spread in Laizhou City before, so it was not particularly difficult to get further information.
Therefore, not long after Liu Yulie sent spies to contact Kong Youde with the tacit approval of the eunuch Wang Kun.
Relevant information appeared on Huang Yi's head, and at the same time, news came about Liu Yulie's decision to invite the Xinghe Army to the city for rest.
Perhaps to give face to the people sent by Liu Yulie, the artillery fire from the rebel positions stopped roaring today.
Looking in front of him, the envoy came to negotiate for recruitment and security. Kong Youde and Li Jiucheng looked at each other with mixed emotions.
At the same time, Huang Yi in the Xinghe military camp had already cursed loudly, "These pig-minded people are going to jump into the fire pit, right? They won't look back even if they are pulled by the cow?"
The Chongzhen Dynasty encountered many cases of false surrender, so many that one had to wonder whether one had been deceived or not. If you have the chance, I would recommend Mr. Chongzhen to download the anti-fraud app.
As for the other side, Huang Yi even scoffed at the news that Xinghe Army was invited to rest.
What do they want to do? Corrupting yourself with beautiful women? Use gold and silver to drag yourself into the water? Is this how you test cadres?
Narrow desires!
It's not that Huang Yi is so awesome and immune to all kinds of poisons. But he has seen too much under the wash of information in modern society, and his appetite has been aroused.
Furthermore, Huang Yi has seen what the most difficult-to-defeat army in the world looks like. Using real swords and real guns to create an army with the title of the strongest on the ground relies on the strongest desire to override personal desires! That is the desire for the survival of civilization and the dignity of the nation! That is the desire to protect our brothers-in-law from oppression and our children and grandchildren from being bullied for generations!
Of course Huang Yi had desires, but it was impossible for the idiots in front of him to satisfy his desires.
In the camp, the students who Huang Yi focused on teaching gathered together, staring at the two letters on the table and thinking.
Huang Dayong has been living with his mother, and has a lot of yearning for the past days described by his mother. The concept of returning to his hometown and returning to the Ming Dynasty has always been in his heart. Huang Yi was happiest after he successfully joined the army and got himself a military position in the imperial court.
"Then we can enter the city now! Great, now we can take a break."
Huang Yi has been carefully training his students, so he naturally knows what kind of personality Huang Dayong is. At this time, he crossed his arms and raised his eyelids to look at him.
Huang Dazhi quickly poked Huang Dayong beside him.
"Why are you poking him? I have always taught you to speak out your thoughts. Especially you, Huang Dazhi! How many times have I told you that you are my student. My relationship with you is not the same as when you were a slave in the ger. The relationship between you and your master. Knowing how to observe words and emotions is your advantage, but your disadvantage is that you are too aware of words and emotions at any time."
"Hey, hey. The master of the house taught you the lesson." Huang Dazhi scratched his head and looked honest, but in fact, he was secretly sweating from Huang Yi's lesson.
"Huang Dayong, do you really want to go to the city?" Huang Yi turned his head and motioned to Huang Dayong to express his thoughts.
Seeing that I am one year older than Chongzhen, I remember the domain name: \w\w\w\.\8\2\z\w\.\c\o\m\
