Chapter 366 The War Begins
The above are principle solutions. In addition, in order to ensure the harvest, Shen Qingqian uses diluted fertilizer from time to time. Unless there is human sabotage, it is difficult to fail.
Shen Qingqian even thought of a sales channel, and Li Hezhi's Yunzhongxian Restaurant was one of them. However, leafy greens were rare in winter, so there was no need to worry about selling them.
And this time, with Jiang Goudan and the others, Shen Qingqian doesn't have to worry about the fugitive being unable to do business.
While they were racking their brains to survive, the atmosphere on Liang Cheng's side was a bit solemn.
"King Zhao officially declared war on Chenzhou three days ago, and even before that, he raided Chenzhou's granary." Liang Cheng gathered his confidants and told them the secret report with a heavy face.
Niu Manzi lost his temper and immediately jumped up and shouted, "Then what are we waiting for? Let's quickly deploy defenses outside Lanjiang!"
"What do you think Deng Qichang took his men to do two days ago?" Liang Cheng glanced at him.
This Niu Manzi is really something. He looks so majestic and imposing when leading the charge on the battlefield, but in fact he is a complete reckless man.
However, this person has an advantage that most people do not have, that is loyalty, and he is extremely loyal to Liang Cheng.
"Why didn't Old Deng call me when he brought people there?" Niu Manzi said dissatisfiedly.
Liang Cheng was completely speechless about this fool. He didn't bother to care about him and looked at the others and asked, "Do you have any ideas?"
"We'll hold our ground for now. With Old Deng watching from the front, nothing should go wrong."
"Old Deng's side isn't doing anything right now, but I'm afraid those people outside the border might rush over at any moment."
"If we disperse our forces, we won't stand a chance of winning against those crazy people outside the pass."
Several confidants started discussing it in a lively manner.
Liang Cheng didn't interrupt them and just looked at them silently.
The Hubei Northern Army nominally had a force of 100,000, but in reality it only had more than 80,000.
According to the situation of border disturbances outside the Great Wall in previous years, they can mobilize about 120,000 troops.
It was already difficult for the Hubei North Army to defend this place. If more troops were to be withdrawn to guard against King Zhao, Liang Cheng would have almost no chance of winning a head-on battle with the tribes outside the Great Wall.
"General, what are your plans?"
The confidants finally finished their discussion and looked at Liang Cheng.
Liang Cheng looked over, his eyes tough and steady, "I bet the King of Zhao won't cross the river before the New Year."
The implication is that we should make every effort to guard against the ethnic groups outside the Great Wall.
Moreover, if His Highness can bring Zheng Shicheng here, as long as the people outside the Great Wall and King Zhao do not attack northern Hubei at the same time, the northern Hubei army will be able to fight.
"Report!"
The messenger's voice suddenly sounded outside the house, and the next moment, a soldier rushed in.
"General, a large number of Tuoyu people are attacking from outside the city!"
Everyone was shocked.
“So fast”
Liang Cheng's heart tightened, but he remained calm. He quickly issued orders, "Gather all the generals, reorganize the troops, and march in two quarters of an hour!"
The soldiers defending the city are all elite. If the Tuo Yu people do not come out in full force, they can definitely hold out for more than an hour relying on the city defense.
The war broke out suddenly, and it was already afternoon when Shen Qingqian and the others learned the news.
"In the middle of winter, these barbarians really want to make life miserable for us?" Jiang Goudan was worried.
They were originally planning to work hard and make a lot of money selling vegetables in this winter, but now the war has come. Can they still plant crops on the land?
