Chapter 52 Entering the City

In the early morning of the next day, with Li Yong's order, the supply battalion pulled out and set off, cooperating with other departments of the Cangshan Army, approaching Dayunfu City like a cloud of dark clouds.

The siege battle has reached a fever pitch, and the supply battalion needs to follow closely behind the army and provide war preparations such as vehicles, horses, food, and grass at any time.

The place where the supply camp camped was still far away from the city wall, so Jiang Ming could hear the shouts of killing, the sound of drums beating ahead, and the black smoke from burning oil billowing up, the momentum was extremely terrifying.

"Little Wu, don't look..." An old man with a dark face patted him on the shoulder and pointed in the direction of Fucheng: "If you are brave enough, follow Mr. Li to the forward camp, behead people and take credit ..."

"I don't dare... I can earn a little salary." Jiang Ming shook his head hastily, and ran back to cook porridge.

The supply battalion has never participated in the charge, and the casualty rate is the lowest. Many people who cannot survive go to this supply camp in order to make a living, but every time they win a battle, they get no benefit. After the war, only one An even share of property is better than nothing.

As the commander of the supply battalion, Li Yong shouldn't have left his post without authorization, but the Cangshan Army started too fast, mixed with fish and dragons, and the military discipline was not so strict. The young and strong logistics soldiers rushed to the battle to grab the credit...

Jiang Ming looked at the dozen or so young men from Ping'an Town who were Blood Qi Fang Gang in front of the supply camp, excitedly carrying spears and rushing forward with Li Yong, he couldn't help but shook his head.

"With a few bowls of rice porridge, I was fooled and lost my way..."

But these have nothing to do with Jiang Ming. If someone wants to fight, don't blame the enemy's knife for being too fast... Jiang Ming took a wooden spoon and started to cook food for the logistics soldiers who stayed behind.

Until the evening, Li Yongfang returned to the supply camp with his men covered in blood. When he left in the morning, the dozens of soldiers behind him were now less than half...

"Damn it, these hard bones are really hard to chew..." Li Yong no longer had a friendly image in Ping'an Town, his face was full of ferocity, and he cursed: "Tomorrow daddy will kill the city leaders and chop them up!"

Jiang Ming and others hurriedly filled up the food and sent it to Li Yong's tent.

At this moment, a young man with a painted face came in timidly, holding a straw armored spear.

"Who told you to break into the military tent!" Li Yong was in a bad mood, and suddenly raised his eyebrows.

Jiang Ming looked over, it was the person who followed Li Yong to join the Cangshan Army in the town yesterday.

The young man knelt on the ground with a plop, and cried, "Sir, you said you would lead your brothers to kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds, but several of them died in one day. I don't want to do it anymore, I want to go back to my hometown to farm..."

Jiang Ming sighed inwardly, set the table and chopsticks, bowed his head while holding the wooden plate, and backed out.

From the tent behind him, Li Yong's icy voice came out: "Fleeing in battle, disturbing our army's morale, beheaded! Come..."

"Ah... my lord, please forgive me... I was wrong..."

The screams and cries faded away, and Jiang Ming had already returned to the kitchen, kneading the noodles and steaming the Steamed bun with a calm expression, preparing for the meal for tomorrow morning, but he had to steam a few less.

"There is always a price to doing, no matter whether you foresee the price in advance..."

...

five days later.

Jiang Ming unhurriedly ate a big pot of vegetables and drank rice porridge, and watched as Li Yong led a group of people who did not know where they came from, striding forward to the battlefield...

Although it had been a long time since they could capture Dayunfu City, the entire Cangshan Army, including Li Yong, did not seem to be discouraged at all.

Because everyone realized that the more difficult this battle is, the more likely it will be the last tough battle. As long as this city is broken, the remaining territory of the Yan Kingdom is like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered...

The change of dynasty is just around the corner!

And in the supply camp...

"I guess it will take ten days before the city gate can be broken!"

"I bet ten copper coins, half a month..."

"I followed..."

A group of unreasonable cooks and logistics soldiers squatted together to gamble... Jiang Ming licked his job and joined in, berating Fang Qiu with his poor knowledge and judging the situation...

However, before noon, a Daoist figure ran back in a hurry, his face flushed and he shouted:

"The city is broken, the city is broken!"

Jiang Ming stood up vigorously, looking at the beacon smoke in the distance... as if he could hear the cries from inside and outside the city when the city was broken.

It's just that one is cheering, while the other is full of despair...

"The army has already entered the city... Master Li has ordered that the supply battalion be pulled out and enter the city!"

Someone shouted.

The supply battalion immediately moved into action, packed up the carts, and slowly headed towards Fucheng.

At the gate of the city, the raging fire was still burning on the city wall, covered with sword marks and holes. The city gate was smashed into pieces by a Practitioner or a siege machine. The screams of street fighting and killing can be vaguely heard.

Jiang Ming stepped on the bricks and rubble all over the ground, stepped on the stumped limbs of the dead, and followed the baggage camp slowly into the city...

"Hey... Where's Xiao Wu?" An old man suddenly looked around and asked in surprise.

"This young man, wouldn't he also be passionate about stealing people's heads and making meritorious deeds? He didn't even cook..." The old man shook his head, put a few sticks of firewood into the stove, and kneaded his dough quickly.

...

There was chaos in the city, the street fighting between the Cangshan army and the imperial army was still going on, and the people in the city were panicked, hiding at home and not daring to move.

Jiang Ming walked all the way, and even saw many ragged people shivering under the eaves and walls...

Although many people escaped from Dayunfu City, there were also many who fled in from the north. The tall city walls always give people a sense of confidence and security.

But when the gate of the city was broken, this confidence also collapsed... Hooligans can be seen everywhere along the way, taking advantage of the chaos to rush into the homes of ordinary people and rob houses.

The soldiers are fighting, the people are crying, and the wicked are robbing... In short, it is just a random word. Even if the Cangshan Army advertises that it will not hurt the lives of the people, this situation will not stabilize in a while.

Even in this chaos, the participation of Cangshan Army soldiers is indispensable. After all, it is a group of mixed rebels. The slogans are so loud that there may not be many people who actually implement them.

All is well in Ping'an Town, that's just because there's not much oil and water...

"Wait and see for two days!"

Jiang Ming didn't rush to the base camp of the Old Snake Gang. After all, the Old Snake Gang had colluded with the rebels. Who knows what's going on in the Old Snake Gang? happy……

He went across the street from the base camp of the Old Snake Gang, found a small house with several rooms, and hid in the woodshed.

There lived a couple of ordinary people who opened a rice shop. With Jiang Ming's second-rate practitioner skills, the other party couldn't find it at all, and he could also listen to the corner of the wall to understand the situation in the city...
