Food bloggers made fortunes in ancient times

In recent years, the number of cotton-padded jacket orders placed by Prince Hui's Palace alone to the embroidery shop has exceeded 10,000.

At present, five thousand people have been sent to reinforce Guang'an Prefecture, and another two thousand have been transferred to defend the city. What about the rest of the people?

How many troops did Li Yanche hide?

Hearing this, Li Yanche's androgynous face showed some distress: "Brother Song, to be honest, I sent 10,000 troops to sneak into Jizhou years ago..."

Therefore, the only troops he could mobilize in Yunshan County at the moment were these two thousand guards and the temporarily recruited militiamen.

If I had known that Hengchang Prefecture would fall so quickly...

wrong!

Even if he could foresee that Hengchang Prefecture would fall, he would still send the 10,000 troops to Jizhou.

After all, opportunities are fleeting, and the layout in Jizhou is related to the overall situation.

He had to lay an ambush in Jizhou while the main force of the Seventh Uncle's army was tied up in Hanzhou.

Song Yan gasped, not because she learned that Li Yanche had hidden 20,000 troops.

But Li Yanche was so bold as to try to find out King Chen's secrets.

Isn’t he afraid that King Chen will notice and devour the 10,000 troops without leaving a single bone?

Facing Li Yanche's calm expression, Song Yan laughed angrily: "You dare to gamble."

“To achieve great things, one must have the courage to risk everything on one throw.” Li Yanche smiled slightly, a gleam of light flashing in his phoenix eyes.

"Besides, the Seventh Uncle is currently fighting the imperial army in Hanzhou and has no time to take care of the rear. By the time he reacts, it will be too late."

Song Yan rubbed his forehead.

Forget it, things have come to this, there is no point in saying more.

Let’s first think about how to defend Yunshan County.

That day, Song Yan stayed in Prince Hui's mansion until very late, repeatedly deducing the city defense deployment with Li Yanche, Zhan Qingyue and others, and did not return to the villa until five o'clock in the morning.

Song Yan felt that she had just squinted her eyes for a while and then it was dawn.

The first thing he did when he opened his eyes was to ask, "Where is the Qi King's army?"

When he opened his mouth, I found that his voice was very hoarse.

An Wu was guarding outside the door. Hearing the noise, he quickly replied, "Scouts have reported that the Qi king's vanguard is 50 miles away from the county town. The main force is expected to arrive in the afternoon."

Song Yan sat up with a start, all sleepiness gone: "Send a message to the farm, everyone retreat to the back mountain immediately!"

After putting on her clothes, Song Yan walked out of the room quickly, only to see Song Wanzhou and Shu's mother directing servants to carry medicine and bandages. The yard was filled with various supplies for defending the city.

"Brother, are you going to the city wall?" Song Wanzhou asked worriedly when he saw him.

"Well, let's go check out the situation." Song Yan kept walking, "You guys stay at home and don't run around."

Shu's mother also reminded: "Be careful and pay attention to safety."

Song Yan nodded in agreement, mounted his horse, and headed straight for the east gate.

At this time, the East City Gate was already heavily guarded.

Zhao Meng was directing the soldiers and militiamen to reinforce the city gates, blocking them tightly with boulders and sandbags so that not even an ant could crawl in.

On the city walls, archers were on full alert, logs and stones were piled high, and boiling gold was bubbling in the iron pot, emitting a sickening smell.

"Report - the enemy's vanguard is ten miles away!"

"Report - the enemy has divided into three groups, and the left and right wings are moving towards the north and south gates!"

The scouts' shouts came one after another, and the atmosphere became increasingly tense.

At the same time, at the farm ten miles away.

The freshly plowed land has sprouted new green buds, swaying gracefully in the spring breeze.

This should be a busy time for spring farming, but now it is deserted.

Zhou Dashi stood at the main entrance of the manor, looking at the dusty direction in the distance, and spat fiercely: "Damn rebels, they come so fast!"

Behind him, three hundred guards and young strong men clenched their weapons. There were hoes, sickles, and iron tools made by Dongliu Village. Although the styles were different, they all revealed a ruthless spirit of risking their lives.

"Listen up!" Zhou Dashi turned around and said in a loud voice, "Follow the boss's instructions. Wait for my order and retreat to the back mountain after you have fired your arrows. No one is allowed to linger in the battle!"

"Got it!" Everyone responded in unison, but their eyes involuntarily glanced at the approaching enemy.

Soon, the King of Qi's vanguard troops arrived outside the manor.

The leading general reined in his horse and looked at the seemingly peaceful farm in front of him, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"General, there seems to be no one here." The deputy general whispered.

The general snorted coldly, "Impossible! The scouts reported that there is a large amount of food and fodder stored here. They must have been hidden! Search for me!"

Dozens of soldiers rushed into the farm like wolves and tigers, but saw only empty houses and closed granaries.

"General, the granary is empty!" the soldier shouted.

The general's face darkened. "Search! Search thoroughly! Dig three feet into the ground to find the food!"

At this moment, Zhou Dashi suddenly swung his arm down and said, "Shoot!"

The guards who had been lying in ambush in the dark fired arrows at the enemy like rain.

"There's an ambush!" the general exclaimed and quickly drew his sword to block.

In the chaos, several soldiers were shot and fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Zhou Dashi shouted, "Retreat!"

Three hundred people rushed to the back mountain like a tide, moving very quickly.

The general was so angry that he yelled, "Chase! Chase!"

But after they had taken a few steps, they heard a few "thumps" and several soldiers fell into a horse trap, with screams rang out one after another.

By the time they finally managed to bypass the trap, the escort had already disappeared into the dense forest.

"Waste! A bunch of waste!" The general was so angry that he whipped his horse whip wildly, but he could only watch the cooked duck fly away.

The general looked at the lush green hills behind and his face turned blue with anger, but he did not dare to pursue rashly.

The terrain of the mountains and forests is complex, who knows how many traps are hidden in there?

"General, what should we do?" the deputy general asked cautiously.

"What else can we do?" The general gritted his teeth and said, "Leave a team of people to guard here, and the rest of you follow me to Yunshan County!"

He just didn't believe that Yunshan County could hide the grain so cleanly!

The east gate of Yunshan County.

From afar, a dark mass of troops appeared on the horizon, rushing towards the city like a tide.

Flags fluttered, swords flashed, and the sound of war drums shook the earth.
