The first citizen who received the cloth looked at the silk-like cloth in his hand with an expression of disbelief in his eyes.
"I've never seen such fine fabric. General Tan is truly our benefactor..."
The guy stroked the fabric with trembling hands, his voice choked with excitement.
One mother burst into tears of excitement after receiving the fabric.
She said in a tiny, trembling voice, "Is this... is this really for us?"
I thought I would receive coarse cloth or linen, but I never imagined that it would be a cloth more exquisite than silk.
"This cloth is so fine and delicate, it must be very precious."
"Yes, I didn't expect General Tan to give us such precious cloth."
"The quality is so good, the clothes can be worn for many years."
"If anyone dares to say anything bad about the Tan family army from now on, I will fight them to the death."
…
After receiving the cloth, everyone was shocked and excited.
Due to years of severe drought, all workshops that could produce cloth have stopped production long ago, so there was no cloth to buy.
The clothes we used to wear were all made of coarse cloth, which is not durable to begin with. If they were not replaced for a long time, they would become ruined.
If you pull it a little harder, it will break.
It's okay for men, but it's too embarrassing for women.
Many women dare not go out because their clothes are worn out and can hardly cover their whole body.
With these precious cloths, I will never be so embarrassed again.
The Tan family army not only defended Pengshui City, but also ensured that the people in the city had water, food and clothes. This was simply a miracle.
In the turbulent times and natural disasters, even the imperial court ignored the refugees from all directions and was unable to provide any relief.
But Pengshui City was turned into a doomsday fortress by the Tan family army.
The people in the city no longer have to worry, as the barbarian army cannot attack at all.
No longer have to suffer from hunger and struggle for survival.
You can even wear decent clothes and live with dignity.
…
"What did you say? Pengshi City changed hands and was occupied by the Tan family army?"
Inside the Barbarian Army's tent, Wu Wei's face was filled with disbelief.
"In one night, the Tan family army repelled the Daliang army and even turned back to recapture Pengshi City. Are they crazy?"
"Absolutely true..."
A barbarian soldier bowed his head and continued to report the situation.
"Because the Daliang army was about to attack the city, Ziyang asked Pengshi City for help."
"The Shi family father and son said that the soldiers had not eaten enough for many days and had no strength."
"Zi Yang gave them a batch of food, but after the Shi family father and son received the food, they asked Zi Yang for 20,000 people to use as meat."
"The Tan family army was enraged and after repelling the Daliang army, they captured Pengshi City."
"The father and son of the Shi family in Pengshi City were executed on the spot by Ziyang."
"The Tan family army delivered water and food overnight to help the people in the city."
"With Pengshi City under their control, they can move freely. It will be even more difficult to fight them."
"Where do they get so much water and food?" Wu Wei was very surprised.
Although Pengshi City is not big, there are at least 100,000 people including the Shi family army and civilians.
There was a general shortage of water and food in all cities and regions, but the supplies of the Tan family army seemed to be endless.
Not only does it ensure that the people of Pengshui City have enough food to eat, but it also takes care of the people of Pengshi City. Where do their water and food come from?
Why does it feel like it's inexhaustible?
"Report..."
At this time, a famous general walked in and said, "The Tan family army dug a river that surrounds the city and has an endless supply of clear water."
"What?"
Wu Weihu stood up and asked, "Are you reporting the enemy situation or telling me a joke?"
The general's expression was a little ugly when he was told this.
"Six spies all reported that there was ample water in the Pengshui River, and that the people were drawing water to irrigate their gardens."
"He can just dig a river and there will be water. Where does his water come from?" Uwe yelled with his eyes wide open.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible."
"Sir Chanyu, the spies I sent out also reported that there was water in the river inside Pengshui City. I think this news must be correct."
Another soldier took two steps forward and clasped his hands, "The Tan family's army has sufficient food and fodder, and I'm afraid they can't be trapped for long."
"Before we could trap them to death, we would be dragged down ourselves."
"We should sincerely cooperate with the Daliang Kingdom and take over Pengshui City together."
"General Li is absolutely right."
Another general also stood up.
"We must not only unite with the Great Liang Kingdom, but also call on the Great Yan Kingdom and the Grand Duchy, who are eyeing the Holy Dragon Kingdom covetously."
"Or, we should give up attacking the Holy Dragon Kingdom and look for another place..."
"Asshole, how outrageous!"
Uwe suddenly yelled,
"The Tan family army deliberately released food to give us the illusion that they had enough food and water, so that we would retreat."
"It would be perfectly natural for us to give up at this time."
"The Tan family army defeated the Daliang army and conquered Pengshi City, becoming famous. The number of people joining the army from nearby cities will increase dramatically."
"Next, let's see how they can have enough food and grass."
Wu Wei did not believe that the Tan family army's supplies were inexhaustible, and decided to continue the policy of dragging them down.
…
"Coach..."
In Pengshi City, Fan Yin looked a little anxious.
"There are so many people coming to the city to surrender that we've increased the number of registration desks to ten, and it still seems a bit crowded."
"They all have families to support. If this continues, we will be dragged down."
"Coach..."
Wei Guang also came over.
"The civilians who came to surrender to the city all know about it. They know that we repelled the Daliang army and captured Pengshi City last night, so they rushed here to join the army."
