The most irritating thing is that some brave soldiers of the Qi army deliberately carried food to the earth wall to patrol and eat.
Watching them feasting one by one, Tang Jun salivated and stared desperately at the food in the hands of the Qi soldiers, as if he could fill his stomach just by looking at it a few more times.
At this moment, a team of law enforcement rushed over quickly, raising their whips to drive them away.
The soldiers who were beaten were full of resentment, but they dared not express it.Since all the soldiers who fought in Wuyue escaped, Li Shimin ordered all the ministries to guard them closely. If any soldiers showed signs of fleeing, they would be caught and dealt with, ranging from sticks to beheading.
These peripheral soldiers are all ordinary soldiers, all of them are exhausted from hunger, how can they be the opponents of these well-fed law enforcement teams.
They were beaten until they howled like ghosts and howled like wolves, and fled in all directions.
At this moment, small baskets suddenly hung down from the side of the earthen wall.
Some soldiers of the Tang army who were still on the edge of the earthen wall realized that there were some flatbreads and other food in the bamboo baskets.
Although there are not many in each basket, for the current Tang Jun, it is no less than timely help.
Some soldiers scrambled for the food in those baskets one after another.The ruthless ones even directly drew their swords at each other, fighting each other.
Even though the law enforcement soldiers found that they came in a hurry, facing the hungry soldiers, even a leather whip could hardly change their aspirations.On the contrary, many law enforcement soldiers were slaughtered by the soldiers.
The commotion grew bigger and bigger, and finally even reached Li Shimin.
Li Shimin was shocked when he heard this.
Zhuge Jin and Fang Tianding's leaving without saying goodbye was already drawing out the bottom line, which greatly damaged his strength.Now that the Qi army is actually using food to break their morale, if he takes the initiative to drive away the soldiers at this moment, it will inevitably lead to chaos in the entire army.If you don't drive them away and let the Qi army continue like this, the soldiers on the periphery will inevitably scramble for food and cause riots.
Thinking of this, Li Shimin's eyes turned red, and he scolded Cao Anmin ten thousand times in his heart.
The eldest grandson Wuji who was nearby said helplessly: "Your Majesty, right now we can only open granaries to release food to appease the resentment in the hearts of the soldiers, and hurry up to prepare to break through."
Li Shimin glanced at Changsun Wuji, sighed, helpless.
Immediately, Changsun Wuji immediately counted the food and grass, planning to save a part of the original small food and grass for emergency, and divide the rest equally among the battalions.
Although the surrounding battalions were able to obtain a small amount of food and grass, the minds of the soldiers of the various battalions were changing at the moment, even if they allocated food and grass, it would not help.
In Qin Hui's tent, after Cai Jing persuaded Zhuge Jin and Fang Tianding to surrender with his three-inch tongue, he quietly returned to Qin Hui's camp.
At this moment, news came from the guards below that Li Shimin was going to distribute food.
When Qin Hui heard this, his face was full of excitement.
Cai Jing, who was nearby, was a little puzzled, so he asked: "The Tang army calmed down the anger of the soldiers. I am afraid that His Majesty's strategy will not be effective. Why are you so happy about it?"
Qin Hui smiled lightly: "What if the grain and grass are burned at this time?"
Cai Jing's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he immediately understood why Qin Hui was happy.
Li Shimin and his soldiers are like kites and kite holders, and food is like kite strings.
If the kite line is gone, the kite will inevitably go with the wind.
"How do you plan to act?" Cai Jing's words trembled a little, and he was also very excited.
"There are more than 100 trusted people around me, and the distribution of food and grass is bound to be chaotic. I plan to lead them to pretend to pick up food and grass and launch an attack."
Cai Jing gasped, looked at Qin Hui in front of him, and said, "Isn't it too aggressive to act like this? Once something happens, you may not be able to escape the enemy's attack."
Qin Hui said lightly: "I have my own way, but I need your help."
Cai Jing patted himself on the chest and said, "You are in danger, as long as I can help you, just say it."
"A fire in the grain depot will inevitably lead to chaos. You only need to spread the word to let all the soldiers know that the Tang army has run out of food."
Cai Jing grabbed Qin Hui's palm and said: "A few years ago, you and I crossed the south of the Yangtze River. I hope that after this incident, we can cross the river and go back again."
Qin Hui nodded heavily.
Chapter 938 Qin Hui's Blow to the Head
At the gate of the grain depot, Changsun Wuji was carefully counting the distribution.
The grain and grass in other warehouses have been completely bottomed out. This is the last storage of the entire Jingkou Tang army, and the total is less than four thousand shi.
If the four thousand stones are divided equally among the 12 troops, each person will be allocated two or three catties.If a part of the grain is reserved in advance, I am afraid that each soldier can only share one or two catties equally.
Such a small amount of food is all they have, and Qi State is constantly attacking their hearts. If the distribution is wrong, the food may not only not quell the resentment of the soldiers, but may even set off a mutiny among the soldiers.
At this moment, Qin Hui brought dozens of soldiers with pockets.
Changsun Wuji saw that this guy didn't have a good look on his face.
"Brother grandson, I'm here to fetch food."
Changsun Wuji snorted coldly, opened the booklet that he had made before and said: "Your troops have 27 soldiers in total, just take half a stone of food and grass."
"Half stone?" Qin Hui yelled deliberately.
"Why, you don't want it?"
Qin Hui's face darkened and he said: "Your Majesty set up a list, and each department will receive three catties of food. There are 27 people in my department, and you actually gave me half a stone. You humiliate me like this, isn't it deceiving me too much?"
Changsun Wuji sneered and said, "Your Majesty said to give each of you three catties of grain, but those are the soldiers fighting in the front. Your subordinates are full of people with wine bags and rice pockets. Giving each of you two catties of grain is not bad."
Qin Hui's face became darker and darker, and he was so gloomy that he couldn't speak for a long time.The entourage standing behind him didn't have a good face when he saw this.
There were a lot of people who came to get the grain, because Qin Hui was blocking the front, so the soldiers behind couldn't go forward to get the grain, and there was some commotion at the gate of the granary.
Seeing Qin Hui's silence, Changsun Wuji thought that the traitor had flinched, and immediately asked, "Do you want it or not? If not, just step aside."
Qin Hui rolled his eyes and made a decision in his heart. He suddenly stepped back and shouted: "Brothers, Changsun Wuji secretly hid food and planned to starve us to death. Since they are unkind, we can't blame us for being unrighteous. Brave enough!" Yes, follow me in to grab food!"
As soon as Qin Hui's words came out, the surrounding soldiers immediately responded, and a large number of soldiers rose violently, directly attacking Changsun Wuji with weapons in their hands.
Changsun Wuji didn't expect Qin Hui to act like this at all, he was stabbed in the chest by the soldiers around Qin Hui, blood flew everywhere, and he died on the spot.
Changsun Wuji was killed suddenly, and his cronies quickly attacked and killed Changsun Wuji with weapons in their hands, and the two sides immediately fought together.
But Qin Hui had planned it long ago, Changsun Wuji had too few soldiers around him to resist at all, and they all died tragically by their swords.
After the fight was over, Qin Hui led his men into the granary quickly, took some of the grain and grass, and then quickly lit a fire to burn all the remaining grain and grass.
The granary caught fire, and Li Shimin rushed over, but the flames had already been extinguished by the time he arrived, and the few thousand shi of grain and grass had all been reduced to ashes.
The strong wind blew the burned ashes everywhere, and the air was filled with the smell of burning. Looking at the scene in front of him, Li Shimin's face was ashen, his hands clenched into fists, and his body was trembling even more.
The soldiers next to him also looked sad.
