"you you you!"

Even if Sun Zhuo couldn't see the look on his face now, he could still tell by feeling that his face was completely unreadable now.

He struggled to break away from the guard holding his arms beside him, stretched out his right hand and pointed at Liu Deng.

The right hand pointing at Liu Deng was trembling with anger.

But what made him heartbroken the most was Liu Deng's evaluation of him just now.

These words came from Liu Deng's mouth, and I'm afraid they will soon be recorded in history books. Even if he dies now, he will probably be infamy for thousands of years.

"What am I? What qualifications does a rebellious traitor like you have to point fingers at this king? Cut off his dog paw for me!"

"Qiang——"

After Liu Deng gave an order, Du Ziteng took out the saber from his waist with his backhand and stabbed him without saying a word.

"ah--"

Sun Zhuo's health was not very good to begin with, and after struggling all night, one of his hands was cut off by Du Ziteng in a clean and tidy manner. His vision went dark and he fainted!

"Let the military doctor come and treat his injuries, and then die like this. It's really too easy for him!"

In a domestic history, after joining the rebels, he was so active, and even at any cost, he pulled more than a dozen intellectuals in the four countries into the rebel camp, so that now they are trapped in the enemy camp.

Even after the imperial court quells the rebellion, unless the imperial court vindicates them, this incident will become a stain on their lives.

In this age when fame is as big as the sky, if their reputation ruins them, they will not have to live in this life.

In this era of horrifyingly low literacy rates, no matter which one it was, it was a huge loss to the entire Han Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, this is not a place to stay for a long time. We should evacuate as soon as possible!"

As soon as Du Ziteng went out to look for the military doctor, Luan Bu hurried in from behind.

"How much food has been shipped out?"

There are four to five million dans of grain stored in Jinsuoguan. Excluding what Guanfu and the others burned earlier, there are still about a hundred thousand dans left in this granary.

"There is really too much food here. So far, only less than 30,000 shi have been shipped out..."

When talking about this, Luan Bu was also a little helpless. Although food was in short supply, they couldn't transport it out at this time.

Jinsuoguan is also a very important place for the rebels. It will not take long for the news that it has been captured to reach the rebels' ears.

"Burn all the remaining things and don't want them all. Let's go! Return the same way we came. We'll go to Guyang to wait for them!"

Liu Deng just thought for a moment and then made up his mind immediately.

At this time, the rebels' food and fodder have been destroyed. They have 400,000 shi of food. Even if the four countries are strong, at this time, they will not be able to find substitutes in a short time.

After all, these hundreds of thousands of troops are worth a lot of money.

Without food and grass, they would have to withdraw within three to five days at most.

The territory of Dai State is surrounded by strong walls and clear fields. If they cannot break through Jinyang, it will be difficult for them to obtain a large amount of food.

And looking at the nearby areas within a few hundred miles, food can be obtained. Only a few cities of Zhao State were left.

Before the A army left, almost all the supplies in Kaiyang City had been misappropriated by them. Now the remaining supplies were probably consumed by the defenders. Even if the rebels captured Kaiyang, it would be difficult for them to obtain them. supply.

South of Guyang, there is now only a piece of scorched earth. All the nearby cities and towns have been looted by them. Now if they want to obtain a large amount of food, they must either attack Guyang or capture Handan.

Although the Zhao army is now in disarray, if the rebels want to fight and attack Handan, the road will be long and the terrain will be complex.

There are many cities along the way. If they attack Handan directly at the beginning, they may still have hope of breaking the city.

But now, they have lost their food and grass and are distraught. God knows if the Zhao troops along the way will suddenly get crazy and attack them from behind.

In addition, Handan is the capital of Zhao State after all, and the people outside the city still have high support for the imperial court.

And Dou Ying is actually very talented. Although the time is too short, Dou Ying cannot control the entire Zhao Kingdom, but there is still no problem in controlling a Handan city. Once they cannot attack Handan for a long time and run out of food and grass, they will only It's a dead end.

So judging from the current situation, Guyang is almost the next most important target for the rebels, and Liu Deng still has 70,000 to 80,000 people in his hands, as long as they can hold Guyang for ten days and a half.

This earth-shattering rebellion could only be dispersed in the end.

After all, people need to eat. Once food cannot be guaranteed, all subsequent restrictions will be false.

"promise!"

Liu Deng's idea almost coincided with Luan Bu's.

The two looked at each other and smiled, then went directly to prepare.

By the time the aggressive Liu Xun, who had entangled 70,000 to 80,000 rebels along the way, arrived at the Golden Suo Pass, his whole heart had gone cold.

The entire Jinsuoguan Pass was now burned to ashes, and Liu Xun's heart sank.

"It's over, everything is over..."

There is no food. If this problem cannot be solved quickly, death will be waiting for them...

"Your Majesty, let the soldiers go put out the fire quickly. Let's take as much as we can!"

"Fighting the fire? How do you try to save it? It's all damned burnt to ashes, why bother saving him! Where's Sun Zhuo, where's that bastard Sun Zhuo? Find him for me!"

The anger in Liu Xuan's chest could no longer be suppressed. He vented his anger hysterically. The rebel generals around him were all silent. At this time, they did not even dare to breathe loudly.

More than half an hour passed before Liu Xun finally calmed down. He used to be a bit of a germaphobe, but now he didn't care about the mud on the ground and sat down on the ground dejectedly.

"Send someone back to deliver a message and tell the three princes about the situation here, saying that I am now leading my troops to go to Guyang. I will also send a messenger to go down to Suiyang City to ask about His Highness King Wu's side. Can't provide us with some food and grass..."

After saying these words, Liu Xuan seemed to have been drained of all his strength, and his whole body suddenly aged ten years...

I really regret it now, but it was just a few counties that were cut off.

It is true that life is not as good as before, but at least I can still be regarded as a vassal king of the Han Dynasty. Now that I am better, if I can't get food and grass as soon as possible, I am afraid they will have to be taken to Chang'an to claim credit. …
