Don't panic, the family boss is busy farming

Chapter 349 I Will Not Leave You A Sip Of Water

Xu Yue looked at the family members behind her, Wang Pingping sneered, and Xu Dalang's eyes shone with a strange green light, as if he couldn't wait any longer.

Wang Pingping nodded at Xu Yue, then stepped forward, and said calmly: "Chief, you, Xu Mo and Xu Lin led 1000 troops to stay in the city, and Xu Da and I led [-] troops to stop Liu Qi by going north, and then Go around and attack Zhao Yuanji with you both inside and outside!"

"However, since it's a personal conquest, the real elite soldiers should be on Zhao Yuanji's side. In order to protect their majesty the emperor, they must not dare to launch a fierce attack. You just need to delay and wait for me and Xu Da to come back."

"If you don't have to, don't go out of the city to fight!"

With the thickened concrete city walls and only [-] soldiers, it would take at least two months to break through Yuyang County.

This is still under the premise that Zhao Yuanji and others can keep up with the logistics supplies.

But as long as they are in Yuyang County, they will not let Zhao Yuanji and others not have a chance to get a little bit of supplies!

In Yuyang County, the hoarded food and weapons were enough to last for half a year. As long as Xu Yue and the three brothers and sisters relied on the defense of the city wall, they could delay the time until she and Xu Da came back.

As long as Zhao Yuanji dares to enter Yuyang County, she can guarantee that they will not go too easily.

She had made arrangements in advance for the villages and towns she encountered along the way. Even if Zhao Yuanji and the others could not be dealt any blows, it was enough to exhaust them physically and mentally.

"They won't even think about going back once they're on our territory!" Wang Pingping snorted coldly.She didn't pay attention to Zhao Yuanji's so-called imperial conquest.

It is true that the imperial conquest can boost morale, but on the other hand, in order to protect the emperor, the soldiers need to be more scruples. Although they have a great advantage in numbers, sometimes it is not that there are too many soldiers. will be able to win the battle.

Besides, it's not 20 to [-] troops, just [-], Wang Pingping feels that it's not enough for her and her son.

But her pride is only hidden in her heart, and Wang Pingping treats every war very seriously.

Because once they lose, everything their family has worked so hard to manage will turn into bubbles.

The plan was drawn up, and Wang Pingping and Xu Da immediately went into battle, led two thousand light cavalry, and rushed out of Yuyang County.

At the same time, Xu Yue also issued a blockade order to all villages and towns in Yuyang County.

For all the villages and towns that Zhao Yuanji's soldiers and horses were going to pass by, the whole village, old and young, were all moved to the cave dwellings in the mountains, so as not to be affected.

The food and property of the villagers had already been successfully transferred in the previous war preparation campaign.

When Zhao Yuanji's army came to these villages, all they were left with was an empty village with nothing left.

Even the well water was blocked with stone pestles piled up with huge stones and sealed with a cement layer, so that the soldiers and horses of the imperial court would never be able to drink a sip of water.

The only thing to worry about is the hybrid rice planted in the field that has already started heading.

But under such circumstances, we can only choose to sacrifice part of the food.

Xu Jiajun also assured the villagers that even if the hybrid rice cannot be kept, as long as Xu Jiajun is around, no one will starve to death this year.

Ubud, which has a defensive tower like Gongsun Village, locked its gates tightly and organized a self-defense force. When necessary, they would also participate in the battle in the form of guerrilla warfare, making it more difficult for the enemy to march.

However, the actual situation was better than Xu Yue expected.

When Zhao Yuanji's large army stepped into Yuyang County, they encountered a trap set by the spontaneous peasant self-defense force.

It was unbelievable to say, but it was precisely because he had never faced such a farmer before that Zhao Yuanji's large army was completely unprepared, stepping on the hunting traps set by the old Orion one after another.

Every time the imperial army walked a certain distance, one or two unlucky people would fall into the trap that suddenly appeared.

At the beginning, they thought they had encountered Xu Jiajun's trap, which caused quite a commotion.

But soon, they discovered that these traps were too crude to be put on the table.

However, this unrealistic thing caused them to lose more than a dozen people as soon as they entered Yuyang County.

The first five were stabbed to death by sharp bamboos because they fell into the trap by mistake.

Then the dozen or so people died of various accidents because of panic and riots, which triggered a chain reaction.

Some fell off their horses and were trampled to death by their own horses, some ran in the wrong direction and threw themselves into traps and were stabbed to death, and some were killed by their own officers because they wanted to escape out of fear.

And this is the result of not daring to use the elite left behind by Wang Pingping.

In the team led by Zhao Yuanji, more than half of them were veterans, and the rest were improvised recruits who had only practiced for half a month, learned how to hold a knife, and were taken to the battlefield.

Marching in ancient times was really difficult. Zhao Yuanji took charge of the army for the first time, and after the first three days of excitement, he felt deeply powerless.

It turned out that not all soldiers would obey the orders of the superiors unconditionally.Some teams are so stupid that they can't even tell the difference between front, back, left, and right.

The closer he got to Yuyang County, the more traps he stepped on, the more uneasy Zhao Yuanji felt.

But looking back at the long line behind him, thinking that there were tens of thousands of horses anyway, the uneasiness in his heart dissipated.

Liu Qi said that the Xu family's army would not exceed 2 soldiers at most, and even if Wang Pingping led them to meet [-] soldiers head-on, she would be helpless.

They were divided into two groups, and Wang Pingping would definitely divide the troops and leave some of them to stay in the city. In this way, the strength of Xu's army would be even weaker.

More than 1000 against [-], a sure win!
It's just that Liu Qi didn't seem to include these people in Yuyang County.

When Zhao Yuanji saw the empty village in front of him, his heart skipped a beat.

"Your Majesty, the well water is sealed with a kind of solid plaster, which can't be pried apart even with a sharp knife. It's very strong! And the village is full of empty houses, and there is no food in the houses!"

"I don't know if we still want to camp here, please Your Majesty to decide!" the soldier said anxiously.

Zhao Yuanji looked up at the village that was so quiet that only the sound of the wind could be heard, his eyes darkened slightly.He knew that Xu Jiajun was by no means simple!
To mobilize the people of the whole county to cooperate to such an extent, none of the previous kings could do it.

Fortunately, they still have enough food and grass.

Zhao Yuanji looked at the distant mountains behind the village again, and ordered: "Continue to speed up! Go to the next village!"

The twilight is dim, and if we go any further, there is no guarantee that there will be a more suitable camp than the current village before dark.

The general standing behind Zhao Yuanji hesitated to speak, but finally said nothing.

Because the fact is that there is not even a high-quality water source here. Even if the wellhead is sealed, the river surface is also turbid.
