Zhan Chengyin walked out of the tent and drank wine and ate meat with the soldiers.
At noon, the cooks were busy serving steamed fish, roast duck, stewed chicken to the people of the city...
The rich aroma filled the entire military camp.
The people cooked rice porridge every day, and occasionally had a treat by bringing rice to the cook's room to exchange for horse meat.
Although horse meat is not as fragrant as pork, it is meat after all and can be used as a treat.
At today's celebration banquet, there was steamed fish that many people in the town had never seen before.
In the hinterland of the north, there was very little rain before the drought, and the water quality could not support fish.
Only in the river outside the capital, where the nobles chartered a section of the river, did they raise fish in the river.
In the capital, fish is the most expensive food.
Now the people of the whole city can taste it, and men, women, old and young are smiling and eating very satisfied.
There are also stewed chicken, roast duck... and other dishes.
The people have never eaten such a rich meal in their lives.
More than a thousand boxes of liquor and beer were put out, and the soldiers drank without worries.
More people have begun to line up to get shampoo and shower gel...
Those who killed hundreds of enemies went to General Chen's house to exchange sulfur soap, socks, gloves, and lice-killing medicine...
These are particularly popular in the military camp.
As the sky darkened, Chen Kui led the hunting rifle team to leave the city through the secret passage...and shoot Xu Huai in the dark.
He was worried that the hunting rifle would not knock him down with one shot, so he took two hundred Qinniu teams out of the city, and he could always knock him down with arrows.
Zhan Chengyin asked Wei Guang to go with Chen Kui~
This kid has a strong sense of direction and remembers the address at a glance.
He can find a tricky angle to let the hunting rifleman shoot.
When Chen Kui was about to leave the city,
His niece came to see him off with her children, her eyes filled with tears, and she told her uncle to bring Cheng Zixiao back.
Chen Kui agreed and tried his best to bring him back alive!
After Chen Kui left, the surveillance on the city wall was turned on and drones flew out.
All 100,000 people were stationed at the west gate, occupying a large open space.
Hundreds of tents have been built, but more injured women are holding their children in tattered clothes.
They hate Xu Huai to the bone, but now they can't leave, they can only lie in the sand and wait for death.
They regretted it. If they had known that they would take advantage of the night a few days ago to go to Zhenguan...
Zhenguan has food and water, so they won't be killed by the barbarians!
Many of their husbands want to leave the army and escape into the city.
But Xu Huai killed three people in a row, and they didn't dare to take the risk.
It doesn't matter if I die. How can orphans and widows live in this place where people eat people!
After Chen Kui left, 40,000 well-equipped Zhan's army gathered at the west gate.
They are ready to go out of the city to meet Chen Kui at any time!
Zhan Chengyin looked at the drone's screen and Chen Kui led people out of the city.
Wei Guang led them through a sand dune and went around for a few kilometers to the rear of Xu Huai's army...
There were too many 100,000 people. Chen Kui mixed into a tent, knocked several soldiers unconscious with a knife, took off their tattered uniforms, and changed them.
He and several riflemen shuttled through the military camp and found Xu Huai's tent...
Just as they were about to sneak in,
Li Hu and Xu Huai came out of the tent together!
*
Li Ya Ba looked at the surveillance screen and translated for Zhan Chengyin.
Li Hu's eyes were fierce, "General, if Zhan Chengyin doesn't open the city gate, I will lead people to sneak into the town to kill him!"
Hearing this, several soldiers around Zhan Chengyin stood up angrily, holding weapons in their hands.
Zhan Chengyin said calmly: "He can't get in!"
Then Xu Huai said: "Do you think killing Zhan Chengyin is enough? The soldiers under him may not obey the orders of this general!"
"The 40,000 people in the town can kill 300,000 enemy troops. They are not vegetarians!"
"It would be best if we can take over smoothly. If we can't take over smoothly, then kill Zhan Chengyin and his soldiers..."
"If these people can't be used by me, then there is no need for them to exist!"
This time, even Mo Fan couldn't stand it.
"No, I'm going to go out of the city to kill him!"
A general who was out of water and food and betrayed his country and colluded with the enemy actually didn't care about them.
Zhan Chengyin said: "He wants to get the town, and we want his troops!"
"Wait a little longer, Xu Huai will fall."
As soon as the voice fell, a hunting rifle suddenly stretched out from a tricky corner of the next tent and shot Xu Huai in the heart.
Bang
~
Because the distance was too close, Xu Huai and Li Hu realized that it was too late to dodge.
They knew bows and arrows, but not gun muzzles.
Xu Huai was shot and fell down instantly...
Li Hu shouted anxiously, "There is an assassin, come, hurry, save the general..."
The soldiers in the nearby tents heard the news and moved with knives in their hands to slash at the place where Chen Kui was hiding...
~
The knife just raised was shot by the bow and arrow on the west gate wall, and the knife fell down instantly.
The loudspeaker on the city wall was particularly loud in the quiet night!
"If you want to enter the town, don't act rashly. If you hurt the Zhan family army, you will be shot immediately!"
"The town will never let them in!"
"Now, those who want to join the Zhan family army, enter from the west gate..."
"No limit on the elderly, women, children, and soldiers... all are welcome!"
"There is water and food in the city, and there is no limit on the daily water supply!"
"New recruits can receive eight kilograms of rice and four kilograms of rice every month. The barracks provide two meals, rice with one meat, one vegetable, and one meat soup..."
"Those who want to join the army, please enter the city quickly!"
Clang...
The locked iron gate opened.
The Zhan family army was fully armed and stood in two rows outside the city, looking sharply at Xu Huai's army!
Xu Huai was not dead. It seemed that he was shot in the heart, but in fact he was a little off.
He touched his heart with his hand, which was full of blood.
Li Hu helped him up.
Because of the loud speaker shouting, many people were ready to move.
The soldiers may still have concerns, but their families no longer hesitate.
If they don't enter Zhenguan today, they will become the vegetables of Xu Huai's army tomorrow.
Because the barracks are completely out of food and water~
Warhorse Xu Huai is reluctant to chop, but the bodies of women and children killed today are all collected by the cooks.
The last meal of the soldiers is human flesh!
They don't want to be eaten, and they don't want to become the rations of Xu Huai's army.
Even if they are scarred and can't walk steadily, they have to hold their children and limp towards Zhenguan.
The soldiers also want to enter the city.
Since they have been under the West Gate for a day, they have watched the soldiers guarding the city eat two meals with their own eyes.
The second meal was full of meat dishes, lamb, beef, pork... There are all.
It's meat!
Not bitter and hard to swallow grass roots and bark!
The soldiers of the Zhan family army on the city wall are eating meat.
Under the city wall, tens of thousands of soldiers watched and swallowed their saliva with difficulty.
At that time, the soldiers were thinking that if they could enter Zhenguan one day, they would definitely eat more than them!
Now, there is finally a chance to enter the city, who wouldn't be excited?
Some soldiers packed their bags and wanted to enter the city.
The first to arrive at the gate were women and children...
The first one was a ragged, haggard woman, who was holding the child with difficulty.
There was a bloody scar on her back, and there was no medicine to treat it. She was exposed to the sun all day in the hot weather.
She had a high fever, and the child tried hard to walk to the town.
Her husband had died of illness long ago! No one protected them, leaving the mother and child in the military camp, with only one way to go, death!
Just as she was about to step over, Li Hu shouted angrily: "Stop her..."
A guard raised his knife, wanting to chop the woman to death.
The woman squatted down with the child in her arms, holding the child tightly in her arms.
It doesn't matter if she dies!
But the child must survive.
