The battlefield was like a huge meat grinder, throwing in the soldiers one by one. The only things that were pulled out were usually cold corpses. Yingyang County's Pingchuan County was now such a machine.

"General, do you want us to surrender?" A blood-soaked warrior at the wall of Pingchuan County cried out to Lei Lan, trying to dissuade him.

Lei Lan pushed the blood-soaked soldier away and chopped off the head of the Qingzhou rebel army who climbed up the ladder to the city wall. Before he could wipe the blood off his face, he kicked the soldier who was afraid to fight and shouted, "Surrender? Are you a person of the Wei! Where did you throw the blood and guts of the Great Wei! "

"General, it's not that we don't have the guts, but the Wei …" Great Wei has abandoned us! " The soldier that was kicked down lay on the ground and said something that Lei Lan had never dared to say.

"Bullshit!" The Great Wei will not give up on any of his subjects! " Lei Lan's fist flew towards the soldier that was charging towards him, the veins on his face bulged as he shouted in a stern voice.

The surrounding people covered their own face and cried loudly. They cried, "Yingyang County has been thrown away by the Great Wei as an abandoned child."

Lei Lan gritted his teeth as he spat out each word, "It can't be!"

"Si Li has taken all the food in Ying Yang County, causing the people of Ying Yang County to be hungry and unable to eat. They have been guarding the city for a month now. What about Big Wei? Where's Big Wei? " An armored soldier with scars on his face could no longer suppress his anger. He punched Lei Lan in the face, knocking the general, who had not slept for two days, to the ground.

He did not get up from the ground immediately, but collapsed on the ground instead, blood gushing out continuously from his back. The surrounding soldiers panicked and surrounded him, asking anxiously, "General, don't fight anymore, Ying Yang County can't hold on anymore!" If we continue to beat them up, our brothers won't be able to survive! "

He did not answer the soldiers' questions. Instead, he closed his heavy eyes and said in a low voice, "I won't give up until I die!"

The surrounding soldiers looked at each other and nodded. They already had a plan in their minds. They lifted their weapons at the same time and did not stab their enemies. Instead, they stabbed Lei Lan in the chest.

Lei Lan's eyes were wide open as he stared at the soldier in front of him. It was as if he wanted to beat the soldier who attacked them down, but in the end, he still helplessly closed his eyes.

He no longer had to choose between loyal people.

The first measure was vicious, causing both his arms and legs to become entangled.

The surrounding soldiers raised Lei Lan's head high up into the air with teardrops as they shouted, "Stop fighting! Pingchuan County has fallen! "

The helpless, sorrowful voice traveled to Li Ye's ears through the wind, causing him to look up at the smoking city walls. His brows were knitted tightly, his fists were clenched, and he bit his lips without saying anything.

"Marquis Li, what's wrong?" The surrounding soldiers of the battalion saw that Li Ye's expression did not look good. After swearing in a low voice, they all gathered around to inquire about the military situation.

Li Ye quickly came back to his senses. He shook his hand and let out a mouthful of impure air. "It's nothing. I just think that Si Li lost too much money."

"Yeah, he owes me too much." He had just come down from the city wall of Pingchuan County, and without even wiping the blood off his body, he had rushed over to the Yuangchuan Battalion.

Li Ye asked, "How is Ying Yang?"

"This is too miserable. The food was so bad that at least several hundred thousand families of civilians were left without food, while the tens of thousands of guards of the city were also left without food. Do you know why these soldiers were able to hold out for so long?" Forhan replied.

Li Ye shook his head. He, who did not step on the city walls, did not know what had happened.

Forhan paused, then replied with a sorrowful voice, "These soldiers eat humans! "They used the starved people who died in battle to make jerky, and it was only because they changed their sons and ate that these soldiers were barely able to withstand our attack."

Some of the soldiers around retched dryly, while others covered their mouths in fear of vomiting out what they had just eaten. Although Li Ye had experienced many bloody battles, he was still shocked to hear the news and could not calm down for a long time.

"When we enter the city, the people of Pingchuan County will all be starved to the point that their faces will turn yellow and their bones will turn yellow. After this war, apart from the soldiers that were recruited, there might be only 10% of the people left in Ying Yang County!"

Once again, Li Ye was shocked by Fuhan's words. His body swayed, became unsteady, and he asked with a trembling voice, "How much left?"

"10%, after a million Ying Yang people passed through this time, the remaining survivors will be less than 100,000 people!" Forhan looked at Li Ye and slowly said.

Li Ye staggered and fell to the ground, as if he had lost all of his strength. He stopped asking questions and just sat in his tent with his head lowered, muttering nonstop.

Forhan didn't pay attention to Li Ye's reaction. He opened the curtain and slowly walked out. As if he didn't have any reaction, he gripped his helmet tightly. His whole body was trembling with excitement as he slowly walked towards Li Hao.

"… …"

The high-ranking officials and nobles of Chang'an had already taken care of Chang'an. They had used their power to continuously send the children of their family out of the city. They knew that the poison plan of Old Wang had not produced any results.

"Your Majesty, have a cup of tea!" Song Huang Men bent his waist and held a purple sandalwood box in his hand as he asked Li Heng who was deep in thought with his eyes closed.

Li Heng opened his eyes. His eyes were not filled with anger at the loss of his guard in Ying Yang County. Instead, there was a sense of calmness in them. He took the tea from Song Huang Men's hand, took a sip, then put down the cup and stood up to open his mouth.

"Are you ready at the prefectural level?"

"It's all ready, the final battle will be decided after the Yang Taibai's plan succeeds!" Song Huangmen lowered his voice and spoke slowly.

Li Heng nodded his head in satisfaction. Looking at the imperial court that was not as noisy as before, he laughed maniacally and said, "After I suppress the Qingzhou rebel army, I will make sure that none of you who escaped will have a good time, not a single one will escape!"

Seeing how Li Heng was pointing fingers at everything, Song Huangmen's eyes moistened. He had not seen such an attitude in a long time.

It was as if he had returned to eighteen years ago when the new emperor had ascended to the throne!
