Wang Shichong didn't know what was going on outside Luoyang City, but he could see people being arrested and digging ditches outside the city.
Standing on the tall city wall of Luoyang and looking far into the distance, migrant workers and brothers are digging soil everywhere.
Seeing the trenches widening day by day and the amount of soil being excavated becoming more and more, Wang Shichong felt desperate.
Damn it, when other people dig trenches, the soil is piled on both sides.
The Tang army dug trenches and threw all the soil aside.
This could cost my life.
If I dig for another two days, I might have to give wings to the cavalry.
"Once the ditch is dug, we will be trapped in Luoyang City and never be able to get out."
Yuan Wen almost cried.
Now he believes that he has climbed to Wang Shichong to kill Yang Tong and become self-reliant.
This is an out-and-out move.
Stupid idea.
"What are you afraid of?
We have 60,000 troops in our hands.
Even the cavalry has more than 10,000 troops.
How difficult is it to break through the blockade of the Tang army?"
Wang Shichong scolded his close old comrade.
His wealthy life had ruined his bravery.
But it also fueled his ambition, and at worst he would have to fight.
Wealth is sought in danger, and Li Tang will lose two of his teeth even if he dies.
I don't believe that Li Tang really dared to fight with me, and he had defeated all his elite soldiers and generals.
What should we use to deal with Dou Jiande?
Dou Jiande now has strong soldiers and horses, with hundreds of thousands of men under his command.
Li Yuan should not be unaware of the story of the mantis stalking the cicada and the oriole behind it.
"Xian Xiongxin, can you lead someone to rush for him?"
Wang Shichong looked at Shan Xiongxin.
Luo Cheng is still ill, and now the only person who can take charge is Shan Xiongxin.
"No" Shan Xiongxin agreed without hesitation.
There was no other way, and he knew that the consequences of being stuck in the city would be to starve to death.
The Tang army could continuously transfer supplies from Guanzhong.
But Dazheng couldn't do it.
He was trapped in Luoyang City and had to eat every grain.
What to do if we run out of food?
Could it be said that cannibalism requires going out of the city to fight?
Even death in battle is better than death from starvation.
"Well, when I march for the soldiers on the expedition, I want to see for myself how the soldiers defeated the Tang army.
The soldiers who have meritorious service will be promoted to the third level and rewarded with a thousand gold coins."
Wang Shichong knew that if he wanted others to work hard, he had to spend some money.
A stingy boss will not have any younger brothers to be loyal to him.
Li Mi is a lesson learned from the past.
Qu Tutong galloped on the vast wilderness, Luoyang City was really too big.
Although there are many hundreds of thousands of troops, they are scattered around and blocked, and the strength of the troops is still stretched.
"General Qu Tu, how long do you think this trap will end?
I heard that there is enough food in the city to last for a year, so we won't be able to return to Chang'an for a year."
Prince Zan Dou Gui asked loudly .

He had just acquired a concubine recently, and it was time for fun.
Unexpectedly, a piece of edict was brought to the front of the army.
As a relative, Dou Gui was very satisfied to be able to obtain the title of Duke.
Earning credit and earning family fortune still have to be left to the younger generation.
Just live out the remaining years of your life just waiting to die.
People in their fifties should also enjoy their old age.
Now Dou Gui is thinking about how to return to Chang'an.
He may be the most uncomfortable with the anxiety about the war.
"Not only that, if Wang Shichong is smart enough, they will start rationing food from now on.
The soldiers can have enough to eat, but he doesn't care about the life and death of the people.
That way, enough food for one year can last for almost two years.
"Although he didn't want to think about it, Qu Tutong still had a scene of corpses in his mind.
In a siege, food is usually given to the army first, and the first people to die must be the common people.
"Two years" Qu Tutong's words sounded to Dou Gui's ears as standard bad news.
As a person in his fifties, time is short.
If I really stay here for two years, I don't care whether the thing will be useful when I return to Chang'an.
"Don't think too much about it.
You are a relative of the emperor and you are too old.
His Majesty will not let you stay in the army for too long."
Qu Tutong helplessly explained to Dou Gui.
In terms of age, he was two years older than Dou Gui.
The sinus rail can leave, but the flexural protrusion cannot.
He was a surrendered general, and it was time to save a family fortune for his children and grandchildren, so he did not dare to return to Chang'an to live a leisurely life.
"Brother, our old arms and legs are of no use.
Now my back pain is severe.
I have not seen whether I can ride a horse in a few years.
Don't work too hard.
Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings.
The achievements of the boys will be given.
They have worked hard all their lives to earn their own money, and it’s time to take a break.”
"I patrolled the camp for a while and went to my camp.
I got two bottles of medicated wine from Hou Yunhao in Lintong.
It is said to be miraculous in treating bruises.
Let the military doctor rub it for you twice.
I have tried it and it is absolutely true."
Qu Tu Tong decided not to continue discussing this topic with Dou Gui.
With Dou as the queen, the Dou family would not decline in the foreseeable future.
I can't compare with others.
"Thank you so much, brother.
Yunhao didn't even think about giving me some as a gift.
When I return to Chang'an, I'm going to Lintong to beat him up.
I don't respect the old man."
Dou Gui is definitely qualified to rely on his old age in front of Yunhao.
Who makes Yunhao only nineteen this year?

"Hahaha, that kid is very naughty.
Mr.
Zan, you have to be careful."
The two were talking, and the team had reached the edge of a forest.
It is now September, when summer is about to end and autumn has not yet come.
The vegetation was incredibly dense, the woods were lush and green, and the sunlight was blocked by the trees, making it dark inside.
"It's such a hot day, let's go to the forest to rest."
Before Dou Gui finished speaking, Qu Tutong's eyes stood up.
He unsheathed the sword in his hand and shouted: "Formation" Dou Gui was still confused when suddenly countless cavalry rushed out from the forest.
Dou Gui's face immediately turned pale with fright, and he wanted to turn his horse away.
The reins were pulled by Qu Tutong "Brother, it's too late to run away at this time.
It's not too far from the camp.
If someone goes back to report, we can form a formation to protect ourselves and wait for rescue.
There is still a way to survive.
If we escape like this, people will chase us two.
None of the thousands of people can go back.
Even if you are lucky enough to escape, His Highness the King of Qin’s military law will spare you.
We won’t give credit to the younger generation, and we can’t lose our family even at our age.
"Qu Tutong is really anxious, it’s a matter of life and death.
If this old bastard runs away, the morale of the army will instantly disappear.
Then this fight is a fart "I can really withstand it."
Dou Gui's legs were shaking so much that he couldn't stand it.
He was just a scholar and had never been on the battlefield.
Seeing the shock of the cavalry charge, I was scared out of my mind.
"Don't worry, I will definitely not let anything happen to you, brother."
Qu Tutong was worthy of being a famous general of the Sui Dynasty, and he quickly commanded the soldiers to form formations.
While sending people back to report Li Er, he also ordered people to scatter triangular nails as if they were free of charge.
Whether it can withstand the first wave of charge depends on whether this thing works
