"Xue Tu!
I remember that the rebels came from South County.
Wherever they passed, they must have gathered a large amount of rations!”
He looked into the distance at the purple-black plains.
In the sky, dozens of vultures were circling.
Ying Rui stood on the city wall with his hands behind his back and asked blandly.
"Your Majesty.
A spy lying in ambush within the rebel army reported.
Liu Bang's troops had brought a large amount of rations.
It's enough to support them until next month."
Xue Tu, the leader of the East Chamber's internal guards, replied respectfully.
Ying Rui nodded and looked at Gao Shun.
"How much longer can the rations in Wu Pass last?”
"Your Majesty, the rations at Wu Pass can only last for ten days.”
Hearing this, Ying Rui frowned slightly.
Even if he could buy food through the system store to solve his urgent needs.
However, this way, he would not be able to maximize the benefits of the Merit Points.
If the previous situation happened again, it would probably be difficult to maintain.
"Your Majesty.
Our army can send out a small group of roaming cavalry to intercept the rebel army.
Pass the granary with Fengwu."
Yang Zaixing suddenly suggested.
"Yes!" Ying Rui nodded.
The Beiwei Cavalry split into several teams and scattered outside the pass to plunder the enemy's grain and baggage.
The East Hall must cooperate fully."
"Yes!"
The ancestor of the later generation had also used this method to strengthen his own team.
No guns, no cannons, the enemy made them for us.
Today, the Qin army would also use this good strategy.
Weakening the enemy to strengthen oneself.
Yang Zaixing personally led the back Wei cavalry and divided them into nine teams.
Taking advantage of the darkening sky, he sneaked out of Wu Pass and headed straight for the enemy's rear.
During the Battle of Wu Pass, the Wei Cavalry had faced off against 8,000 cavalry.
There were only 500 casualties!
His battle prowess was still at its peak.
Their weapons and equipment were still sharp!
They were the strongest army in the Qin army.
If they went to plunder.
With just the Dayuan steeds under his command, which were the legendary Ferghana Horses.
The rebel army was helpless.
That night, by the Danshui River.
There was blood everywhere, as well as piles of broken corpses.
There were also cattle, sheep, food, and clothing scattered everywhere.
Although South County was remote, Nanyang was located in the Central Plains.
Many cows and sheep were most suitable for transporting grain.
Furthermore, cows and sheep were also strategic resources.
It could be used to reward the army. It could be said to be killing two birds with one stone.
Therefore, the rebel army attacked Guanzhong.
The grain road behind them was transported by cattle and sheep.
They even used horses, donkeys, and other animals.
The cavalry on the back of Wei was divided into nine teams, with 500 people in a team.
They would kill the rebel soldiers at night and seize their rations.
Wherever it passed, blood dyed the sky, and there was no living thing.
The rations, cows, sheep, and horses hidden in the tent had all disappeared.
Before the rebel army could react.
The Bei Wei Cavalry who had attacked at night brought a large amount of rations back to Wu Pass.
If the rebel army approached the city, they would definitely be shot dead by the Qin crossbows.
The large Qin crossbow was shockingly powerful and had a range of up to a thousand meters.
Using it to guard the pass, it had the effect of being invincible!
.........
"What is it? The Right Army was also attacked?"
In the Danshui Camp, Liu Bang was extremely anxious.
Within these few hours.
Their army had already suffered dozens of attacks from the Qin army.
They suffered heavy losses.
Especially the rear supply camp.
Not only did he eat and take.
Those that couldn't be taken away would be wiped out.
Even if the rebel army had a lot of rations, they could not withstand such consumption!
"Pei Gong.
I've already ordered people to gather the rations and supplies into the main camp.
It's just that "
Xiao He said with some difficulty.
"But what?
When did Lord Xiao learn to stammer? You're like a woman."
Liu Bang was getting impatient.
"However, after the Qin army's ambush, we were able to escape.
Our army only has enough rations to last us for half a month.”
With a bitter expression, Xiao He quickly said,
"I've already ordered people to go to South County to gather provisions.
Even the rations in the city would take at least a month to gather.”
Liu Bang's expression darkened.
He was already in a bad mood after suffering heavy casualties.
How long had it been?
Even the food had been looted. How could they fight this war?
The most important thing was…
They had robbed the food, but there were no casualties.
He didn't even realize it!
It was simply a great humiliation!
"Pei Gong! As long as our army can break through the Martial Pass in a short time, we can resolve all the dangers!
There were several large granaries built by the Qin Dynasty in Guanzhong.
Let alone a mere 200,000 people.
Even if there were several times more, a million people would be enough to eat and drink for a year!”
Zhang Liang calmly analyzed the situation. Of course, he understood the problem Liu Bang and the others were facing.
Therefore, he directly spoke.
Since the Mu Gong period and Shang Yang's reform, the Great Qin implemented the integration of farming and war.
The domestic grain production increased greatly.
He had set up a lot of rations in various parts of Guanzhong.
Bashu, as well as Guanzhong 800 miles of Qinchuan, are fertile land.
Therefore, the granaries were usually full.
Otherwise, how could the First Emperor have taken down the six states so quickly?
After the world was unified, Qin granary was built even more.
Without the influence of war, the entire country gathered in Guanzhong.
Just the grain in Guanzhong alone was enough to feed the Qin people for more than ten years.
"Good!
Since the Qin people don't want our army to live a good life, then we'll snatch their mother's.”
Liu Bang's face was filled with killing intent as he said fiercely,"
"Pass on my orders, prepare the army for battle!
The day after tomorrow, he would fight the enemy again!
I won't stop until I break through the martial pass."
"Yes!"
The generals in the Chu army camp all replied loudly.
.........
Inside Martial Pass City.
Yang Zaixing led the back Wei cavalry and returned from looting.
The rations, cattle, sheep, and horses were enough to last the Qin army for a month or two.
Moreover, they had killed quite a number of rebel soldiers.
Ying Rui received tens of thousands more Merit Points.
It seemed that Yang Zaixing and his men had killed many rebels at night.
The Beiwei Cavalry was not only the peak cavalry of the Southern Song Dynasty.
They were also equipped with a large number of weapons and equipment that surpassed the current era.
Even though they were carrying Qin crossbows.
However, the Qin Crossbow was the system's optimized version.
In terms of power, it was far superior to the standard bows of the Great Qin Empire.
The most important thing was…
He was riding a good horse, looking extraordinary.
The rebel soldiers could not catch up to them at all and could only be killed by kites.
