   Chapter 3099 3101 [Two peaches kill three warriors]

   Entering July, the city of Xi'an has run out of food.

  People began to look for all kinds of food that could satisfy their hunger, wild vegetables, leaves, bark, and even mice, sparrows, and earthworms.

  Although the Zhensong army did not take Bailuyuan, they robbed a lot of food in other counties and villages, so they will not starve for the time being.

   Therefore, the army commander Liu Xiazi still insisted, and wanted to wait for the people in Xi'an City to be so hungry that they couldn't bear it, and then opened the city gate and surrendered.

   "Hei Wa, can you find a way to burn the food and grass of the Zhensong Army?" Lu Zhaopeng came to find Xiang Nandao.

"It's not difficult to burn grain and grass." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "But what I'm worried about is that after the grain and grass are burned, the Zhensong Army will exploit the people even more vigorously. By then, the people will not even have any rations left. They will starve to death." How many people?"

   Burning grain and grass is not difficult for him, even if it is an iron wall, he can still infiltrate it and burn the grain that Liu Xiazi robbed.

   But the key point is that he is afraid that Blind Liu will jump over the wall in a hurry, and in order to collect food, he will take away the last grain of the common people. In this way, before the severe drought in the coming year, the people will starve to death first. By then, he felt guilty.

"But the city of Xi'an has run out of food. If the Zhensong army doesn't retreat, the people in Xi'an will starve to death." Lu Zhaopeng persuaded Xiang Nandao, "Moreover, the Zhensong army has already snatched seventy-eighth of the summer grain from the common people. Eight, there wasn't much left.

   Now that they burn their food, even if they want to grab it, they won't be able to grab much, and they can only retreat in the end. In this way, the crisis in Xi'an City will be resolved. You lived the life of a whole city, what a great merit. "

  Xiang Nan nodded, "Okay then, I'll just walk away. If blind Liu doesn't withdraw after the food is burned out, I'll go and kill him."

  Before, he was afraid that after blind Liu died, his three subordinates would fight among themselves, and the Hundred Thousand Town Song Army would be completely turned into bandits, wreaking havoc on the land of Sanqin.

  But times have changed now. For one thing, without their ammunition, they are like toothless tigers. Tigers are feared only when they have teeth. Toothless tigers, even children dare to go up and kick them;

  Secondly, they have no food and salary, so they can't win people's hearts. Be a soldier and eat food, and eat food to be a soldier. Most of the Zhensong army are bandits, bandits, local ruffians, etc. The purpose of serving as soldiers is to eat and get paid.

   Now that there is no food to eat and no military pay to receive, will these soldiers still be obedient? Once Blind Liu dies, I'm afraid there will be internal strife among his subordinates immediately. At that time, the hundred thousand Song troops in the town will kill each other, how many people will survive?

  …

  Afterwards, Xiang Nan went down to the plain again and came to the granary of Zhensong Army.

   This time blind Liu was smart, and stored the grain collected from various places in eight granaries.

   These eight granaries are not located in one city, but scattered in several surrounding counties.

  In this way, even if an accident occurs in one granary, the other granaries will not be wiped out.

  Furthermore, after an accident occurred in one granary, other granaries might be able to survive as long as the vigilance was strengthened and guarded in time.

  However, this is still not a problem for Xiang Nan.

  He sneaked into six granaries one after another, leaving behind a self-made ignition device.

  Although the six warehouses are scattered in different counties, and the farthest is nearly 100 kilometers apart, Xiang Nan, who possesses peerless kung fu, cannot be troubled.

  If he runs freely in one night, he can run up to three to four hundred kilometers, which is comparable to a BMW horse.

  So even though blind Liu had taken precautions, he still underestimated Xiang Nan's horror.

  In order to ignite the six grain depots at the same time, Xiang Nan also specially modified the ignition device, changing from the original incense stick to a more punctual clock.

  In this way, as long as the time is set in advance, the six warehouses can be ignited at the same time.

   Sure enough, two hours later, the skyrocketing fire ignited at the same time.

  Although the fire was discovered quickly and the Zhensong army put out the fire immediately, Xiang Nan poured kerosene on the grain, so it was very difficult to put out the fire.

   What's more, during the period of the Republic of China, firefighting equipment was not so complete, and water was still transported by manpower, and buckets were used to pour water, and it was okay to extinguish a single fire. Putting out a fire as big as a granary is simply a drop in the bucket, so we can only watch six granaries go up in flames.

  The fire burned all night, and the whole city was filled with the smell of burning.

   And seeing the food of the Zhensong army being burned, all the people couldn't help clapping their hands and cheering.

  After these crow soldiers came to the land of Sanqin, they never did a good thing. Now that the food is burned, it is really retribution.

  …

   "Hei Wa, the food has really been burned." Lu Zhaopeng looked at Xiang Nandao in surprise.

  He didn't expect that Xiang Nan could really burn all the food of the Zhensong army in one night, it was really too powerful, it was unbelievable.

   "Yes, who made them do too many crimes, this is the punishment of God." Xiang Nan nodded and said.

   "Yes." Lu Zhaopeng nodded in agreement.

  Although he knew that Xiang Nan did this, but since Xiang Nan refused to admit it, he couldn't explain it too clearly.

   "However, in fact, I didn't burn all the granaries." Xiang Nan said again, "I still left two for him."

   "Why?" Lu Zhaopeng asked puzzled.

   "You have heard the story of two peaches killing three soldiers." Xiang Nan explained, "The food in the eight warehouses before was enough to support the Zhensong army until the autumn harvest.

  Now there are only two warehouses left with food, which is enough to last for a month at most. And they had already sent troops to rob the grain before, and took away the summer grain from the hands of the common people, and there would be no more grain to rob.

  So if the Zhensong army wants to have enough to eat, they can only point to these two granaries. And this granary is located in the counties under the jurisdiction of Zhang Zhigong and Chai Yunsheng respectively.

   At that time, blind Liu will definitely conflict with them if he asks them for food. If there is no food, the soldiers can only starve to death. We just sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. "

  Xiang Nan is not just a top expert, he has also been an emperor and has very rich experience in political struggle.

  The Zhensong Army is originally composed of a group of mobs. When the wind is going down, they can still unite for the benefit. But once you encounter headwinds and conflicts of interest, you must first think about yourself.

   Now that Xiangnan has lost six granaries and only two remain, the Zhensong army will definitely have internal strife in order to grab the granaries. When the time comes, just wait and watch the show.

  After hearing what Xiang Nan said, Lu Zhaopeng couldn't help being in awe.

  …

   Sure enough, in less than half a month, the Zhensong Army began to quarrel.

  The reason is as Xiang Nan expected, Liu Xiazi wants Zhang Zhigong and Chai Yunsheng to give up the food, and everyone will share it equally.

  However, Zhang Zhigong and Chai Yunsheng knew that food was hard to come by, and they still had to rely on it until the autumn harvest, so they were obedient to Liu Xiazi's grain adjustment.

  Although Blind Liu was extremely angry, he still didn't want to tear his face apart. Because he knows that if there is civil strife, if he wants to become the leader of the Three Qin Dynasty, it will be difficult for him to reach the sky.

   It's just that he can bear it, but his hungry soldiers can't bear it. Finally, a group of hungry soldiers rushed into Chai Yunsheng's territory and began to grab food. After being counterattacked, the two sides fought.

   Originally, blind Liu was only fighting Chai Yunsheng, but Zhang Zhigong knew that once blind Liu wiped out Chai Yunsheng, he would be in danger, so he also joined the battle group.

  In the end, all three parties suffered heavy losses. After leaving behind tens of thousands of corpses, they had to choose to withdraw in desperation.
