Chapter 187 Raising Food and Grass



Everyone could see that he wanted to commit suicide.

Wen Mohan didn't give him a chance to commit suicide and quickly kicked him away.

ah……

Bang!

He cried out in pain and fell heavily to the ground.

Before he could react, Wen Mohan grabbed him by the collar and lifted him up, "It's not that easy to just die! Come, take him away and interrogate him severely!"

The soldiers immediately stepped forward and escorted him back to the camp.

There is a way to interrogate prisoners in the military camp that will make them suffer a fate worse than death.

The burning sparks took an hour to extinguish, but unfortunately, even if they were extinguished, the Liang Dynasty was basically destroyed.

The soldiers dug out the burned part and only found a very small part from the bottom.

Wen Mohan looked at the little remaining food with a serious expression.

No matter how good the soldiers are, if they don't have food to support them, they will be defeated without fighting.

He was so angry that he walked to where Huaijiu was tied up, took the whip from Yunjian's hand, and lashed him fiercely with bloodshot eyes, "Tell me! Who are the other accomplices! Tell me quickly! Tell me quickly...!"

The cold and terrifying murderous intent made everyone else tremble. Everyone knew how angry he was at that moment.

The whip hit Huai Jiu again and again, and each whip made his skin and flesh burst, and his bones were visible.

ah……

The screams resounded throughout the entire military camp, making people shudder.

Wen Mohan lashed out countless times before stopping and sternly shouting, "Look at those civilians who died tragically! Aren't you afraid of retribution? What benefits did they give you?"

Huaijiu was in excruciating pain, his entire body trembling. "I...my child is in their hands. I...have to do this..."

child?

I see.

The other party used his children as a threat.

Wen Mohan sneered, "Naive! If you do this, your child will be killed by them as well."

Huai Jiu: "If it were you, what would you choose? Would you not care about your child's life or death?"

“…”

Huaijiu continued, "Assisting me is Li Ergou from the... Eighth Battalion."

puff……

After saying this, he spat out a mouthful of blood and his face showed pain.

In less than two breaths, he lowered his head and took his last breath.

Wen Mohan had just struck fiercely, each lash of the whip was meant to kill him.

Huaijiu will die sooner or later for doing such a thing, the only difference is the way he dies.

Yun Jian took a look and frowned, saying, "Master, he is dead."

Wen Mohan threw down the whip coldly and said, "Bury it. Go to the Eighth Battalion and pull Li Ergou out."

After giving the order, he turned around and returned to the tent.

Several generals were waiting for him inside.

When I saw him come in, I asked what I should do?

We cannot retreat until the Langya Gang is eliminated, but now that we have no food or supplies, not retreating would be tantamount to suicide.

Now I am in a dilemma...

Everyone discussed for a while but couldn't come to a conclusion.

Wen Mohan remained silent throughout the discussion. After everyone had stopped discussing, he said in a deep voice, "We're already procuring food supplies. Wait for news."

Capital city.

Jiang Mengli personally delivered the new fragrant dew to Miaoxiangzhai.

She moved to the second floor with He Yu, and the other guys came to help immediately when they saw her.

If Aunt Hong were here, she would send someone to the clinic. Since Aunt Hong left, it has become door-to-door service.

Bai Chenhuan manages Miaoxiangzhai by himself, but there are too many things to do and he can't arrange them all.

"Where is your boss? This stuff has been delivered to our door, we have to inspect it and settle the bill."

The waiter was still very polite and pointed to the back room in front. "He is talking to someone in there. If Miss Jiang can't wait, just go over there directly."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Mengli told He Yu to wait there while he went over to take a look.

When she reached the door and was about to knock, she was stunned by the conversation inside.

"Puzhou has become a living hell. Residents of the surrounding counties have either fled or been captured or killed by the Langya Gang. Linghe County is now a deserted city."

"Didn't they say that Prince Yu won this battle? He has already recaptured Linghe County."

"We only recaptured an empty city. All the civilians are gone. It took the soldiers two days and two nights to deal with the bodies. We lost eight to nine thousand of the twenty thousand soldiers. Now the few provisions have been burned."

"Without food and fodder, how can the army continue the fight? The Langya Bang has not yet been eliminated. If they launch a counterattack, they will surely be defeated."

"Yes, so I helped to collect food and fodder. The prince took out 200,000 taels of silver, and he couldn't give more. The food and fodder prepared by the emperor was enough for one month."

"So, if you want me to contribute some money to support him, I can personally contribute 50,000 taels. I can't contribute more than that. My family is quite large, so I need the consent of everyone in the family before I can contribute more..."

It is still unknown how long this tough battle will last. Now that food prices are rising, two or three hundred thousand taels of silver used to buy food, medicine, and soldiers' clothes will not last long.

Jiang Mengli came to his senses and knocked on the door.

After the knock on the door, the conversation inside stopped and soon the door was opened with a creak.

When Bai Chen Huan saw her, he knew why she came. "I'm so sorry, I forgot that today is the delivery day because of something else."

Jiang Mengli looked at the sitting goatee man and asked with a frown, "Is the Langya Gang really that cruel?"

She had also heard about Wen Mohan's victory before.

But I haven't heard about the tragic situation in Puzhou City.

If so many civilians were to die tragically, even if we recaptured the empty city, it would not be considered a victory.

Lord Duan sighed deeply, stroked his beard, and frowned as he said, "This is arguably the most brutal war in history. The Langya Gang are not human beings at all, they are beasts."
