The logistics of Fengzhou city soldiers are almost entirely transported by the civilian men and militiamen of Fengzhou city.

Because there are not many Shun troops crossing the river, MCA is not worried about the grain transport team being robbed!

The young and strong in Huangmangang would like to stay in Huangmangang to help the county soldiers resist the Shun army, but the military order is difficult to violate, even if they are not soldiers, they cannot violate the military order.

After the Shun army arrived at Huangman Port, Ma Hua asked the people of Huangman Port to go to Fengzhou City to help transport grain and grass.

"Go! We, Huang Mangang, follow your grain!"

Huangmangang is a relatively large town, with 30,000 people spread out here, it doesn't look crowded at all.

There is even a feeling of emptiness.

Before Shunjun came, there were 2,000 people living in the town alone.

When Shunjun arrived at Huangmangang, he saw the soldiers of Handong County waiting in full battle.

Zhou Ming sent people to investigate Huang Mangang's dry army carefully, and came to a very frustrating conclusion.

It is almost impossible to defeat Gan Jun in three days.

The strength of the Gan army is equivalent to that of the troops he led, at least 12,000 people.

MCA didn't put all its troops in Huangmangang, it didn't mean that it helped with all hands and feet.

He also wants a thousand cavalry!

This is the ultimate move against the Shun army!

Due to the limitation of ship capacity, there were no cavalry in Zhou Ming's Shun army.

A thousand cavalry can change the situation of the entire battlefield at a certain moment.

The cavalry is used well, and Ma Hua can even kill Zhou Ming, the leader of the Shun army, in a single battle.

When the time comes, the lone and leaderless Shun army will surely be captured without a fight!

surrender!

 …

The battle in Handong County could not be ended within three to five days. Both Mahua and Zhou Ming had some concerns and did not launch an attack immediately.

The two of them had a feeling of fear of being beaten by a wolf at both ends. Everyone wanted the other to make the first move, and then they themselves would strike later!

Ma Hua's idea is very simple, fighting on his own territory, he just needs to wait for the Shun army to consume all the food and grass to win the victory.

With such an easy and safe way to win, why use those inefficient and dangerous methods?

Zhou Ming's thoughts were a little more complicated.

At this moment, Zhou Ming's heart was full of bitterness. When the navy was exposed, half of his foot and the Fifteen Thousand Shunjun stepped on the edge of the cliff.

When the navy was severely injured by the Suzaku Army navy, one of their feet fell off the cliff, and the next action determined whether he would take this foot back or step in with the other foot!

If they couldn't take back their feet that had fallen off the cliff, Zhou Ming and his 15,000 soldiers would still fall into the abyss after they exhausted their physical strength (food and grass).

wrong!

To Zhou Ming, it was indeed an abyss, but to ordinary soldiers of the Shun Army, this abyss seemed to be nothing bad!

Surrendering to Shun Kingdom might be a good choice.

Zhou Ming knew in his heart that perhaps many of his soldiers were thinking about surrendering.

After all, some of them are used to surrendering, and now facing the same enemy, it is normal for them to arouse memories in their hearts.

Zhou Ming didn't attack Huang Mangang immediately because he was worried that if the offensive didn't go well, the soldiers would quickly lose their fighting spirit.

The more serious problem is that there are many people in the army who know that there is not much food and grass.

Even if Zhou Ming wanted to delay for a few days, he couldn't think of a more thorough plan!

Too late!

Gan Jun can wait, he can't!

So no matter whether he is sure or not, Zhou Ming will launch an attack on Huang Mangang within two days!

No!

It is to capture Huang Mangang, otherwise he can really consider surrendering!

Food consumption will increase during combat, but there will also be a reduction in personnel after the battle begins. Overall, food consumption is basically the same as before the war, and will gradually decrease as the battle progresses.

Zhou Ming led the Shun Army to Huangman Port on the afternoon of May 11th, and launched an attack on Huangman Port on the morning of May 12th.

MCA had expected the Shun Army's actions long ago, and the Shun Army's sudden attack did not achieve very good results.

The soldiers of Handong County firmly guarded the way into Huangmangang, and the plan of the Five Thousand Shun Army to enter Huangmangang from the front was completely thwarted!

Zhou Ming also sent two troops to attack Huangmangang from the side. If that didn't work, he would bypass Huangmangang and take another route to Fengzhou City.

It just so happened that Fengzhou City Lord General brought more than 10,000 defenders to Huangmangang. At this time, the defense is weak, and he might be able to go down with a drum!

Zhou Ming's thoughts are very naive, even he himself doesn't quite believe it, but he can't help it!

There's no harm in giving it a try.

Anyway, the front of Huang Mangang is such a big place, it is impossible to let all his 15,000 people set up an offensive formation, maybe there will be unexpected gains from outflanking from the two wings?

Unsurprisingly, there was little progress.

The Shun army couldn't form a frontal formation, and the dry army in Huangmangang couldn't arrange all their troops on the front either.

Everyone had to find a way to spread out the soldiers and horses, and the two wings naturally became the battleground.

And MCA also has to consider whether Shunjun will bypass Huangmangang to Fengzhou City.

Although this possibility is very low.

As long as the generals of the Shun Army are not fools, they should know that if they attack Fengzhou City without breaking through Huangman Port, they will easily be attacked by two sides, and they will lose faster at that time.

The Shun army general should not bet that Fengzhou City's defense is weak, and he can take it down with one attack!

If he really dared to bet, MCA would be even happier!

Although he only left 3,000 soldiers and horses in Fengzhou City, even if 10,000 Shun troops attacked Fengzhou City within three to five days, they would not be able to defeat it.

If the people in the city are united as one, it will be very easy to guard for ten days and a half months!

At that time, he will send a letter from the back~lightnovelpub.net~ Shunjun can't escape.

Now Zhou Ming's biggest threat is to send troops to the north of Huangmangang to attack the grain transport team.

As long as the food road is well guarded, the victory and defeat will be determined within a day or two.

The Shun army could not get food and grass from Handong County, and had to find a way to withdraw to Huangshi County or surrender directly within three days at most.

Zhou Ming is now looking at the map on the table with red eyes, trying to find a way out from it.

But besides withdrawing from Huangshi County, is there any way out?

If you want to bypass Huangman Port, you have to take more than a hundred miles away, which is definitely not as fast as the Qianjun's return to Fengzhou City from Huangman Port!

Is it really necessary to grab food from the people of Handong County?

no!

Zhou Ming still didn't convince himself.

Two years ago, the people here were still citizens of Shun State, and now he is asked to lead soldiers to rob the people.

He can't do it!

It's not their fault that they changed from Shunguo people to Qianguo people!

 …

Hanshui County.

It has been three days since Zhou Ming entered Handong County.

Not yet surrendered.

Although he has been blocked by the Mahua people in a narrow area that is less than fifteen miles long and less than ten miles wide between Huangmangang and Hanshui River.

But Zhou Ming still insisted on not surrendering.

Zhu Yong also did not order to reprimand MCA for Zhou Ming's non-surrender.

Although he said that he would defeat the Shun Army in Handong County within three days!

But MCA can't punish him if he fails to do it, it's not a system!

But Handong County soldiers did a pretty good job.

Although the Shun army could not be wiped out within three days, it would be over in a day or two.

What is even more commendable is that their own casualties are very small.

MCA handed in at least an excellent answer sheet in Handong County!

The future is very bright!
