0464 Dust returns to dust, earth returns to earth

"What about that woman? Where is it now? Empress An Tianyi asked in a hateful voice.

"I took poison together and committed suicide-" Tang Yi replied.

Everyone turned their eyes to Wuhuang Andongye, who was stunned for a long time and sneered, "What does his death have to do with me-" turned around and walked to the inner room with no expression.

"Brother," Empress An Tianyi pondered for a moment and said, "Please take the two young ladies, Sha Yu, Song Haiyan, Young Master Sun and Miss Sun back to 'Tangzhou' to settle down. 'Huadu' will have a great turmoil recently, which is very unsafe."

"I know," Tang Yi said politely, "I have asked my father and Miss Zhu Qier to protect my family first."

"Well, this is the best. I will send Ruoxhuang to lead the merchant allies to help you take care of 'Tangzhou'." Empress An Tianyi said.

"Thank you very much." Tang Yi was even more sad and hid his face and left.

It was night, and the Wuhuang's sleeping palace sounded the cry of An Dongye-

At dawn, the people of the Wolf Castle Palace had seen Wuhuang Andongye's white hair.

In May of the third year of the immortal imperial dynasty, Zhu Luo, the imperial minister of justice, was sadden by the death of Countess Rong Die Dancer and resigned and returned to the forest.

In the same month, the chief cabinet minister of the empire, the old man Pishamen, died of illness. Since then, Emperor Andongye, all of them have filial piety and mourned the whole country.

Pi Liuli and the twelve princess An Yusheng returned to Beijing to mourn their filial piety. On the way back, Pi Liuli was stabbed to death at the post station by a mysterious assassin.

Several reports of the "Dark Department" secret police were delivered to Wen Si, the Minister of the Interior, indicating that the death of Pi Liuli was done by the "Knights of the Dead" under the command of the eldest brother Anxi's tears; but there was no real evidence and the most powerful figure of the imperial dynasty was involved, so it could not be done.

In July of the same year, the twelve princess An Yusheng defeated Dong Shura. Dorozha was unwilling to be captured and humiliated. He killed himself with his sword and surrendered 100,000 people. After being taken back to Shura City, he was killed by the eldest brother An Xi's tears!

On the same day, the eldest brother launched a mutiny with tears, the secret rainstone, the death of the mother and son of the eldest concubine Serena and Arthur, an important minister.

When this series of news reached the "Wolf Capital", Tianyi did not disturb His Majesty Wu Huang, who was ill. Instead, in the name of the "commander-in-chief", she transferred the armored division of the ninth brother, and restrained six guarded militia corps and commercial alliance legions to garrison on the eastern border to prevent the eldest brother from crying.

The empire is full of wind and clouds, and the Central Plains is fighting fiercely.

When the sky was slightly bright, Youdong, Helian Tieshu and Lei Zhan had stood at the head of the city, looking at the enemy.

The three imperial wolf owners who guarded the "Yuanzhou" Fucheng have just patrolled the city from the East Gate and carefully patrolled the city under the west gate of the "Yuanzhou" Fucheng for a long time.

Yuanbei Gu integrated the police and teaching soldiers in the land of Yuanbei, and the armed police force brought by his two nephews Yuan Zai and Yuan Zai quickly fought back and surrounded the city. Every day, the fierce siege of the city exhausted the wolves and soldiers defending the city, and the three masters did not dare to be careless at all.

"Do you think Yuanbei Gu really has so much food in his hand? Even if their own dry food can last for a long time, how dare Yuan Beigu gather more than 400,000 soldiers in Fucheng? Is his food really large enough to feed these 400,000 people? Youdong has been troubled by this problem for several days. He always wants to find out the hidden mystery, but there is nowhere to start with the pain.

Helian Tieshu boldly speculated: "After all, the time for us to enter Yuandi is too short, and there are many omissions in the 'dark part' spy. We don't know how many things are hidden in Yuanbei. Brother is wondering if this Yuanbeigu has any secret granary in Yuandi? He is an old fox. Will he have a plan to build a large granary with secret storage of grain somewhere or somewhere outside the city? Has it been secretly enabled now? Otherwise, according to our calculation of the time for Yuanbei Gu to gather and prepare for the war, raise grain and transport grain, Yuanbei Gu has prepared food for 200,000 to 300,000 people for a month. Even if he still stores a large amount of grain in the Yuanbei area, it is impossible to have enough time and enough human and animal resources to transport it. In Fucheng, even after the siege, grain transportation continues. Counting the grain loss on the road, Yuanbei Gu has at most a month and a half of rations; and the brother's estimated one-month rations have tried to overestimate Yuanbei Gu's familiarity with the terrain and road of Yuan's land, and assumed that Yuanbei Gu's grain and transportation were the reason for this. Faster than us, more than us. Even so, with the gathering of more than 400,000 people, rations are still the obvious Achilles' heel of Yuanbei. So, how can Yuanbei Gu decide to besiege the city in his spare time? Isn't he afraid of sudden changes due to the shortage of food? Where does his confidence come from?

The brothers speculated that Yuanbei Gu had several secret granaries in his hand, and it would not be too far from the city. When Yuanbei Gu fled to the west of the city, he might secretly transport all the grain he could carry away to those unknown granaries for storage. The fire of the first-level general burned 50 miles of mountains and forests outside the city into white. Yuan Beigu was indifferent and should not have burned his secret granary. According to the acceptable grain transportation schedule of two to three days, it is estimated that if there is such a secret granary, it must be within a hundred miles, 70 or 80 miles away from the city. It is just right to deliver it in two or three days with mules and horses.

"This speculation is also a little reasonable, but it can't be confirmed." Lei Zhan also agrees that what Helian Tieshu said is indeed reasonable, but this conjecture has no evidence and can only be conjecture.

"Yuanbei is so confident that there may be another possibility." Helian Tieshu said amazing words again.

"What's the possibility?" Youdong and Lei Zhan all stared at Helian Iron Tree. After all, Helian is the hero of one side and has excellent knowledge, so Youdong and Lei Zhan attach great importance to the idea of Helian Tieshu.

"Maybe Yuan Beigu still has a card to attack the city that others can't imagine! Yuanbei Gu is confident that he can take back the government city with this card, and there is no need for a long-term siege. If Yuanbei Gu does not plan to besiege for a long time, he naturally does not need to prepare so much food. Although the current siege and defense battle is tragic and difficult, it may also be that the old thief wants to paralyze us.

Helian Tieshu's words made Youdong and Lei Zhan silently calm for a while, remembering that the empire did not have them to defend the "Yuanzhou" capital. Both of them were thinking about continuing this difficult and useless offensive and defensive battle. Is this surrogative value or not worth it?

Every brave army that has been on the battlefield has its own blood and dignity. Youdong and Lei Zhan have asked thousands of times in their hearts. As a result, they will never withdraw unless the Yuanzhou capital is broken. This is not the value of cost, but only related to blood and dignity.

"If the fourth master captures 'Huozhou' as soon as possible, it may form a certain constraint on the rear of Yuanbei. But is 'Huozhou' government so difficult to conquer? Lei Zhan said.

Lei Zhan sneered and said, "At first, the emperor's son-in-law was blindly optimistic. As a result, the forced siege of the city fell in front of Mr. Huo Du's boy and turned into a siege on the spot. On the one hand, they wanted to preserve their strength, and on the other hand, they wanted to trap Huodu to death. As long as the food was out, the city of 'Huozhou' would naturally be broken. Who knew that Mr. Huo Du was prepared to defend the city in advance. He was besieged and trapped for a long time. Although Mr. Huo Du knew that he was still breathing, why were General Li Gan and General Shentu, the six emperor's son-in-law, not exhausted? Perhaps, after the arrival of the fourth master's reinforcements as a new force, it can slightly change the boring situation in the city of 'Huozhou'.

Youdong shook his head and said, "I hope so."

Helian Tieshu smiled and said, "Brother, I guess 'Huozhou' will be broken in the next few days. The brother estimated the possible grain reserves in the city of Huozhou. Even if the largest number of reserves is taken to estimate the grain consumption of the Tianyao Sect, Huozhou has been besieged so far. No matter how much it is saved, there must be no doubt that there will be no food left. Now there are not many living people in the city of Huozhou, which is already a dead city, and the city is broken Wait, the fourth master and General Li's uncle and nephew will get what they want.

These words are so deep that it makes sense to think about it carefully. Youdong couldn't help laughing and said, "Brother should really transfer your brother to the 'Military Office' to be a quartermaster', or join the 'commander' to the military."

Helian Tieshu smiled and said, "It's almost dawn, and the Yuan army is going to start to attack the city again. Let's take our respective positions as soon as possible."
