Chapter 12 Accidents, All Accidents
Now the size of the army has exceeded 2,000, and daily consumption has increased several times compared to before.
However, Wang Cheng's performance in the past month has been somewhat unsatisfactory. If Wang Bu was not so hungry, the army would have run out of food in the second half of the month.
"Sir!" Wang Cheng looked a little tired.
They have been running around a lot these days, and Wang Buxu all knows that for such an important person, Wang Buxu will not fail to send people to monitor him.
So Wang Buxu knew very well that Wang Cheng was not here to deliver food this time.
Now his family doesn't have much food left, and it was almost emptied by the army in this month.
"But has the food been secured?" Wang Buxu asked calmly.
"To be honest, as long as you are willing to send troops, no matter how much food you have!" Wang Cheng said with a bitter look on his face.
He secretly thought that he would not allow this or that, and it would be difficult for him to develop his business...
"Superficial!" Wang Buxu glanced at Wang Cheng and pretended to be dissatisfied: "The time has not come yet. If the army moves now, have you ever calculated how much we will lose?"
Wang Cheng suddenly realized something.
That's right, was it just for the promises he made when he was persuaded by Wang Buxu?
Of course not, he is doing it for the grand ambition in his heart!
Although Wang Buxian is young, he is very scheming, and everything is planned to perfection.
If he hadn't seen the scale of this place with his own eyes and the hard training of the sergeants, he might not have been able to believe that this was true.
Wang Buxu must have had some intention when he said this, indicating that it was really not suitable to use troops at this time.
"What the young master is saying is that I have been a little panicked by those people these days. Please don't blame me. These are all masters who don't let go of eagles when they see rabbits." After figuring out the key, Wang Cheng's
I feel much more relaxed.
"Humph, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to fly eagles in the future!" Wang Buxung laughed.
"Young Master is right, but Young Master, I don't have much food left at home. Even if I move all the granaries, I'm afraid it won't be enough to feed the army for half a month. What will happen next?" Wang Cheng
On the one hand, he was happy that he had seized the opportunity, but on the other hand, he was troubled by the fact that the army could not find food.
At first he was just forced, but after he got on the boat, he hoped more than anyone else that the boat could go further.
The most that these soldiers could risk was their own lives. He, Wang Chengke, had all his family and property bet on it. He was more afraid of failure than anyone else.
This is also the reason why he keeps getting food from home to supply the army this month. Although it hurts, he is very happy.
Wang Buxu frowned slightly.
In fact, he was quite confused at the moment.
Wang Buxu is the kind of person who can sit but never stand, can lie down but never sit, and can be dogged but never bark.
Why not send troops? Firstly, I want the army to be dispersed internally, so that everyone can find their own way out, and then they can live the rest of their lives in peace and stop engaging in cheating.
Obviously, this path has failed.
The second one is waiting for Liu Bang and Xiang Yu to revolt, and for more people to revolt.
The first sword of the anti-Qin war was wielded by Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, and it was the trigger.
But it was these two guys who really brought down the Qin Dynasty.
Precisely because Wang Buxu was a bitch, he knew very well that he must not take the lead before Liu Xiang and Liu Xiang took the lead.
Otherwise, the main force of the Qin army will be attracted from Handan to Xingyang, and then he will be the passive one.
But food is also a big problem. Even if Wang Cheng spends all his wealth, the army can only last for twenty days at most. This is the result of subsequent reductions in allocation.
The other landowners obviously didn't trust Wang Cheng when they just listened to Wang Cheng's bragging, and they would not give Wang Cheng food.
After all, he is not Wang Cheng, and he does not have the aura of a protagonist (that’s what the author said!).
Wang Buxu would never dare to solve the problem before he ran out of food. Whenever he ran out of food, Wang Buxu would always feel a chill on the back of his neck.
Therefore, since the big dog owners are unable to help, Wang Buxeng has to start thinking of a solution from now on.
"In this way, when you go back, tell your acquaintances that if you want to save their food and property, you should take your things and go to Aocang to seek shelter in five days!"
"Ao Cang?" Wang Cheng couldn't help but shudder, that's Ao Cang...
"Yes, now that the Qin Dynasty is experiencing constant civil strife, the people are panic-stricken and cannot ensure stable production or personal safety. The Xingyang Camp has lost its due role. The only thing the people can think of is Aocang, where the most elite soldiers of the Qin Dynasty are stationed.
In order to restore the reputation of Great Qin, General Qin will definitely accept you, so Song Zhong will not be able to obtain food from you." Wang Buxu said with righteousness.
"But if this happens, not only Song Zhong will not get food, but the young master will also not get food!" Wang Cheng frowned into a black line, what kind of idea is this?
"You don't need to worry about anything else. I have my own way to raise food!" Wang Buxu looked calm and reassured him as steadily as an old dog.
Wang Cheng left with doubts. No matter how hard he was killed, he wouldn't believe it. Wang Cheng didn't dare to touch Ao Cang's ideas.
But since Wang Buxu had arranged it this way, he could only listen to it.
Where is Aocang?
Is that a place that ordinary people dare to think about?
It is one of the only two national super warehouses in Daqin, the other is Taicang in Guanzhong.
Aocang's defense force alone had two thousand Qin soldiers and one thousand garrison troops from various places. Although they were garrison troops, their equipment was much better than that of the garrison troops elsewhere.
Let’s talk about the geographical location. Aocang is not built in a stable place, but on the top of Aoshan Mountain, which is only one or two miles away from the Yellow River.
There are dense rivers all around, and Mang Mountain has formed a series of canyons. Although it is not big, from a military perspective, it is typically easy to defend and difficult to attack.
With these 3,000 elites around, no one without ten thousand men would dare to attack at all.
And how much food does Aocang have?
There are many, many. Although the strategic position here is just a large transit warehouse, all the grain will not be stored here for too long.
However, grain from the east, south, and north must be gathered in Aocang first, and then sent west to Taicang or other places according to demand via land routes.
"Young Master... Young Master..." Chen Tieshan stood at the door with anxious steps and shouted loudly.
"What's the matter?"
"Sir, the news I just heard is that the Xingyang camp has increased its troops. There is no movement in Aocang for the time being, but it will be soon!"
"More troops?" Wang Buxu was stunned for a moment, then pretended to be a god and started counting with his fingers.
It’s not a big deal, but it’s actually just replaying the whole story in my mind.
It stands to reason that after he rebelled and reached a large scale, Li You, the governor of Sanchuan County, should lead an army to attack him.
But after waiting and waiting for a month, there was no sign of Li You, and even the mobilization of the army was not seen.
Just when he had no choice but to take action, he received the news that the Xingyang camp had increased its troops.
Wang Buxu secretly scolded Li You for being such a coward without balls. No wonder he was beheaded by Fan Kuai later. If you don't have the guts, who would you kill?
"How much more?"
"It is said that the first batch will increase Xingyang to 10,000, and there will be several more batches to come."
