    Su Jian knew what Han Ce meant, hunting can't kill them all.

    "Okay, I'll leave in the afternoon"

    In the afternoon, Su Jian and his people left Beiliang City to go hunting.

    At night, Sun Yu and Qi Zheng left with 5,000 people

    Danyang City.

    "Order the soldiers of the three armies to go out to the city for a decisive battle tomorrow, and the Beiyan army must be repelled." Xiao Liangsheng said, the 200,000 Beiyan army attacked Danyang City like a flood.

    The city wall of Danyang City was damaged, so we can't just defend it blindly. Attacking is the most important way now.

    "The marshal is right. If this continues, we will be consumed sooner or later."

    Many people agreed with Xiao Liangsheng's words.

    "How much food and grass do we have?"

    "It can last for three days."

    "Is it so little?" Xiao Liangsheng didn't expect that the grain and grass could only last for three days, and so many people were waiting to eat, what should happen after three days.

    "Marshal, don't worry. His Royal Highness King Jing has ordered the household department to prepare food and grass. He is on his way now. I believe we will arrive at Danyang City in a few days. We will not worry about it then."

    Someone said with a smile.

    "After the problem of food and grass is solved, we can continue to spend with Beiyan." Xiao Liangsheng said, he did not believe that so many people in Beiyan could spend with them forever.

    A few days passed.

    Danyang City has fallen into a stalemate, while Beiliang City has gone through several sieges, and the Beiyan army is not in a hurry to attack.

    Beijing.

    "Your Majesty, I propose to cede a city."

    One person said.

    "Your Majesty must not do so. At this time, the northern border is in a stalemate. As long as I guard Danyang and Beiliang City in Daliang, I believe it will not take long before Beiyan can withdraw its troops."

    Feng Kui said.

    "Your Majesty, the war in the northern border is tight, and the imperial court has increased the taxes of the five counties in the southeast. If this continues, the four counties in the south may also increase their taxes. This is detrimental to the country."

    Someone suggested it.

    In order to raise food and grass for the northern border, the imperial court has increased taxes, and the people have begun to complain. If this continues, it may arouse public anger.

    Therefore, the northern border war must be resolved now.

    "Your Majesty, the imperial court can order to appease the people. As long as the war in the northern border ends this time, the imperial court can exempt the five counties in the southeast from taxes for three years. I believe the common people will understand, and the household department has already raised money to buy grain from Southern Chu. At this time  The grain and grass have entered our Daliang territory, and the grain and grass we have raised is enough to support the northern border for half a year."

    Feng Kui continued.

    Since the war has already started, there is no need to compromise.

    "What do you think, my lord?"

    Emperor Jingrui asked Li Xin.

    "Your Majesty, I feel that this battle must be fought." Li Xin said.

    "Why?"

    "Daliang must not show weakness to Beiyan. Once he shows weakness, Beiyan will definitely intensify. At that time, we will be passive, so this battle must be fought to the end."

    Li Xin said.

    He started from the overall situation, and this battle is crucial to Daliang.

    "Your Majesty, I feel that what the Duke said is true." Yan Zhenpan agreed with Li Xin's words, and this battle must be fought to the end regardless of victory or defeat.

    ? If you stop fighting for peace at this time, not only will all the previous efforts be in vain, but it will also make Beiyan continue to intensify.

    "What does King Jing think?"

    "My minister agrees with the words of Elder Yan and the Duke of the State. In this battle, our leader cannot stop fighting for peace." Xiao Yanjing said seriously.

    "Okay, then I will wait for the monarch and ministers to be united, and this battle will be fought to the end regardless of victory or defeat." Emperor Jingrui also made up his mind, and he also wanted to avenge his shame.

    You must know that it was Emperor Jingrui that Daliang ceded the three northern counties.

    Emperor Jingrui was the only one who ceded territory in the past emperors of Daliang, so he also wanted to avenge his shame.

    "The emperor is holy!"

    Everyone saluted.

    ? When the court retreated early, Xiao Yanjing stopped Yan Zhenpan, Li Xin, and Lin Mingzhang.

    "Old Yan, Duke Guo, and Prime Minister Lin stay here!" Xiao Yanjing came in front of the three of them.

    "I don't know why the prince stopped the three of us?"

    "The war in the northern border is tense. Danyang City has already supported food and grass, but Beiliang City has not yet. I wonder if the three of you can gather food and grass?"

     Xiao Yanjing asked the three of them, waiting for the food and grass from Southern Chu to be transported to the northern border, which would take a long time.

    "this matter?"

    All three of them showed embarrassment. If there is no disaster in the northwest, they can let the northwest support Beiliang City, but the three counties in the northwest are unable to protect themselves now.

    "Is there no way?"

    Xiao Yanjing asked again, before Han Ce left, he had promised Han Ce that Liangcao would definitely support him this time, so that what happened ten years ago would not happen again.

    "Now the Ministry of Households has no grain and grass, the only way is to buy grain from the people, but the war is tight, I am afraid that the price of grain will double."

    Feng Kui said.

    "It's fine to double it. Let's solve the urgent need first. We don't need to worry when the food from Nanchu arrives." Xiao Yanjing said.

    "Okay, I can handle this matter!"

    Feng Kui said.

    "Duke, when will the ordnance forged by the Ministry of War be delivered?"

    "Immediately, all forging will be finished in a few days, and they will be sent together at that time." Li Xin said, the most consumed on the battlefield is ordnance.

    Several people chatted for a few words and then went to work on their own.

    North Liang City.

    "Master Hou, we have less than a week's supply of food and grass!" Pang Xu said to Han Ce.

    "I know about this matter. I have asked Zhuo Junling to buy food, and Su Jian went hunting in the mountains. Don't worry, we can still support the food."

    Han Ce told Pang Xu not to worry.

    Before coming to Beiliang City, Han Ce had already calculated that relying on the support of the imperial court was not a long-term solution at all.

    They must be prepared for a protracted war.

    "Master Hou, I heard that Danyang City has grain and grass support, do you think we will be the same as ten years ago." Pang Xu said worriedly, once bitten by a snake for ten years, he was afraid of well ropes.

    The events of that year cast a shadow over countless people in the Han family army. They came to the battlefield because of the Han family army's battle flag, not because of the imperial court's order.

    So everyone began to worry about whether the court would abandon them again.

    "Don't worry, King Jing is in charge of the food and grass in the rear this time." Han Ce said to Pang Xu, telling Pang Xu not to think wildly, Xiao Yanjing himself can still be trusted.

    "Since ancient times, the heart of a king has been the most unpredictable. You should be more cautious, Lord Marquis," Pang Xu said.

    When Emperor Jingrui was still the prince, he and Han Xiaozhong were good friends, but it was different after he became the emperor.

    "I know, thanks for the reminder."

    Han Ce said.

    He naturally knew all of this.

    "With Lord Hou's words, we can rest assured."

    Pang Xu said.

    Bei Yan.

    "If we can't attack for a long time, it's not good for us to persevere." Xiao Zuo came outside the camp and said, looking at Beiliang City.

    "As long as there is enough food and grass, we will spend it with them." One person said.

    Grain?

    "By the way, why hasn't the food and grass arrived yet?" Xiao Zuo suddenly thought of a question.

    According to their previous agreement, the food and grass are delivered every half a month. This time we postponed it, if we hadn't suddenly mentioned that we hadn't realized this problem.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
