"A total of 8,132 horses.”
Xu Shu's answer was accurate to the single digits.
hiss ~
Gasps could be heard around them.
Qin Wen turned her head and looked over. Zhang San hurriedly covered his mouth.
Not only was Zhang San surprised, even Qin Wen did not expect there to be so many warhorses.
Guo Tai was really rich.
He was willing to give the White Wave Army so many horses.
Unfortunately, it was all for him now.
After a moment of silence, Qin Wen said to Yang Zaixing,
"Yang Zaixing, I will give you 3,000 horses. You will form a light cavalry and complete the training as soon as possible.”
Yang Zaixing frowned slightly. What did his lord mean? They were currently in the hinterland of the Yellow Turban Army. Where would they find the time and place to train the light cavalry?
It seemed that the gains this time were too great, and the lord had forgotten about these things in his joy.
"My lord, our brothers don't even know how to ride a horse, and we don't have time to train…"
"Don't worry about that."
Qin Wen interrupted Yang Zaixing and smiled."
"Next, we will return to the Xiapi battlefield. We have plenty of time, so we will use actual combat to train.”
Return to the battlefield?
Xu Shu, who was standing at the side, seemed to have thought of something. He cupped his hands towards Qin Wen and said,
"My lord, if you want to return to the battlefield, I would like to ask first, which side are you prepared to help?”
Qin Wen did not hide anything and told Xu Shu his original plan.
After listening to the explanation, Xu Shu came to the conclusion that this lord pursued the greatest benefits.
After thinking for a while, he had a plan.
"My lord, I have a plan that can end the war in Xu Prefecture as soon as possible.”
……
Three days later, on the official road of Guangling County.
A few thousand Yellow Turban soldiers were escorting provisions.
"D * mn, didn't you eat?"
The Yellow Turban leader rode on his horse and saw an old man pushing a cart swaying. He whipped him.
The whip tore through the clothes of the commoners, leaving behind a whip mark.
The old man lost his balance because of the pain and fell to the ground with the cart.
The rations were scattered all over the ground.
"Donkey! Trash!"
" No…Sir, please spare me…Ah…"
The Yellow Turban leader was furious. His whip kept falling, completely ignoring the old man's pleas for mercy.
"Da da…"
The crisp sound of horse hooves rang out, and a group of a hundred silver-armored cavalrymen rushed to the front of the grain transport team.
The Yellow Turban leader recognized this equipment. It was the most elite White Wave Army under the canal commander.
The Yellow Turban leader quickly stopped and put on a fawning smile. He said,"
"Milords, what's the matter?"
The burly man in the lead did not say anything and whipped the horse whip in his hand.
This whip was so strong that the Yellow Turban leader spun on his horse and fell off.
"Ah ~"
A heart-wrenching scream sounded.
The Yellow Turban leader rolled on the ground in pain.
The burly man didn't even look at him and said loudly,"
"The commander-in-chief has ordered that the White Wave Army will receive the rations.”
The Yellow Turban soldiers stared at each other.
However, after seeing the miserable state of the leader, he did not even dare to ask a question and left the rations behind.
In just a moment, they had all left.
When the commoners saw this, they also wanted to leave.
"Wait a minute."
The burly man called out to them and said softly,"Everyone take a bag of food. If you have the strength, take more."”
The scene was silent.
Only the neighing of warhorses could be heard.
A brave young man stepped forward, carried two bags of food, and ran.
The White Wave Army did not pursue.
The commoners swarmed forward and snatched the food.
"You…you're not the White Wave Army, come quickly…"
The remaining Yellow Turban leader screamed, and a silver rod whistled past.
"Pa ~"
The sound of a stick hitting a watermelon rang out, and the head of the Yellow Turban leader exploded.
Fifteen minutes later.
The commoners left with the food on their backs.
"Burn them all!"
The man gave the order, and the soldiers poured kerosene on the grain and threw down the fire.
A moment later, the fire soared into the sky.
The 'White Wave Army' gave the order to retreat.
A day later.
The same scene happened in another place. A silver-spear general led the White Wave Army to take over the grain and distribute it to the people. The rest was burned.
In the following half a month, the White Wave Army constantly rushed about on the official road of Guangling prefecture.
Not a single cart of rations had been transported to the front line.
At the border of Xiapi Prefecture and Guangling Prefecture, two huge camps were built ten miles apart.
"Bang!"
In the main tent of the Yellow Turban camp, Guo Tai smashed the table in front of him with a punch and roared angrily,"
"Where are the provisions? Where are the provisions? I haven't seen a single carriage of rations in half a month.”
The quartermaster knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
" General, I don't know. I've sent people to Guangling prefecture to urge them, but the rations just didn't arrive. The person hasn't come back yet…"
Guo Tainiu glared at him and was burning with anger. He did not listen to the quartermaster's explanation and shouted,
"Shut up, drag him down and cut him down."
Two Yellow Turban soldiers came in and dragged the quartermaster away.
"Marshal, please spare my life, marshal…"
"Ah!"
With a scream, the world fell silent.
The tent was terrifyingly quiet.
A Yellow Turban general mustered his courage and said,"
"Marshal, could it be that something happened at home?”
" Impossible. I left 10,000 White Wave Army soldiers to guard Guangling City, and there's also Shi Hu. Such a lineup is invincible…"
Guo Tai objected without thinking.
"Report!"
Before he could finish, there was a rush of footsteps outside the tent. A Yellow Turban soldier ran in.
The panic on their faces made everyone's hearts sink. Something big had happened!
The Yellow Turban soldier reported in a trembling voice,"
" Urgent report from Guangling prefecture. Half a month ago, Guangling City…Guangling City was lost. General Shi Hu led 10,000 White Wave Army soldiers to pursue the enemy. They were…were…"
"What happened? Tell me quickly!"
Guo Tai stood up in shock and asked loudly.
"General Shi Hu died in battle, and his corpse was hung in front of the city. No one dared to collect it. The ten thousand White Wave Army soldiers were completely annihilated.”
These words were like a bolt from the blue. Guo Tai's face instantly turned pale and his body fell back.
"Marshal!"
"Marshal!"
……
The Yellow Turban generals quickly went forward to support him.
Guo Tai took a deep breath and gritted his teeth."Who did it?"
The Yellow Turban soldier replied,"The night is over and the day is bright!"”
"The night is over."
Mrs. Guo gritted her teeth and said these words.
The doubts in his heart were finally resolved. The grain couldn't reach the front line, so it was definitely his doing.
Now that they were short of rations and their rear had been stolen, if this continued, his army would be finished.
Thinking of this, Guo Tai felt as if a ball of fire was burning in his chest. He said in a deep voice,
"Tomorrow morning, we will send all our troops to fight Zang Ba. We can only win, but we cannot lose. Then…we will return to Guangling prefecture and tear apart the night until dawn!”
