Xu Huang's guess was not wrong at all.

All the money and grain intercepted by Yuan's army were stored in Yingyang.

After some deployment, Dong Yu decided to cut off their food supply at Yingshui.

More than ten miles away, the flames and thick smoke rising into the sky would definitely attract the attention of the enemy troops on the front line.

At that time, the enemy generals could not suppress the news of the food supply being cut off even if they wanted to!

"My lord, the river has been blocked, with one hundred iron spears inserted!"

Li Tong clasped his hands together and began to report.

"Go and warm yourself by the fire with your brothers. It's cold, don't hurt yourself."

Dong Yu nodded and said with concern.

The course of the Yingshui River is not a straight line.

The 40-li waterway between Yingyang and Yangdi is as winding as a snake.

At the largest bend in the river, Dong Yu led his men to insert a large number of iron spears directly into the river water that had not yet frozen.

This can not only ensure that the enemy troops downstream cannot notice that the river has been cut off, but also effectively intercept the enemy's grain transport ships.

"My Lord, do we really not need to go directly to support General Guo?"

Xun You looked at Dong Yu and asked with some concern.

"No need!"

"Trust your comrades."

Dong Yu said very firmly.

"General Guo is a general under Prime Minister Dong, as famous as General Li."

"Although the enemy is numerous, I think we can hold out for half a month without any danger."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiu immediately supported the Xiliang army.

Just kidding, Guo Fan is a little weaker than Li Jue.

But he is also a talented general with dual attributes exceeding 90.

If he hadn't been so cruel, he would have been considered a famous general.

After all, Li and Guo were almost inseparable, so Li Jue's battle record was similar to Guo Fan's.

That is to say, there is one less record of defeating Sun Jian.

In history, Xu Rong and Li Jue worked together to attack Sun Jian, and they almost got rid of Sun Lao Hu.

You must know that Sun Jian is the unit of measure for Dong Jun. Only if you can defeat him can you become a first-class general.

When it comes to commanding troops, even this filial son was beaten up by Sun Jian once, and Lu Bu fled back to Luoyang overnight carrying his Red Hare.

"In that case, let's wait here."

"According to Zilong's observations, there are signs of troop movements within Yingyang City. New food and fodder should be shipped to the front lines soon."

Xun You nodded and said seriously.

"Ah."

"Always monitor the enemy's movements."

Dong Yu nodded slightly and said.

...

"Sister, please sit at the bow~~~~"

"Brother is walking on the shore!!"

Transporting grain is not as useless as imagined. Many people dislike this task and prefer jobs that require charging into battle.

On the contrary, the general who is capable of transporting grain must be the person most trusted by the commander-in-chief and the person in power.

After all, although the amount of grain transported at one time is only enough for an army to spend for more than ten days, it is still a huge fortune in the eyes of ordinary people.

Especially during the late Han Dynasty, natural disasters and man-made disasters continued, grain production decreased, and the population dropped sharply.

Food prices have skyrocketed almost exponentially.

On the one hand, they were worried that someone would run away with the money, leaving their families behind. On the other hand, they were also worried that the enemy would intercept their food supply routes.

It takes time to prepare food, and it also takes time to transport food.

If it is intercepted once, the soldiers on the front line will easily mutiny when they try to collect food and supplies to transport to the front line.

Therefore, the generals who escort food and fodder are particularly important.

But this time was different. Yuan Shu thought that this was his own territory, and it would be very difficult for Dong's army to come to support and intercept the grain route, so this time Yuan Shu gave his son-in-law a chance to make a meritorious service.

Mostly gold plated!

"Who else in the world can be a hero but me?"

Huang Yi held a long sword and let out a long roar to the sky from time to time.

Some Yuan army soldiers could only shake their heads and sigh helplessly.

It’s not that he thinks Huang Yi has no ability, but he hates himself for not being the one to marry Yuan Shu’s daughter.

Just work less in your life!

Of course, this was just the soldiers' idea, not Huang Yi's idea.
