Chapter 92: People cannibalize each other
Quan Gaisuwen took a breath of cold air. If the 300,000 troops want to survive and capture Anshi City, they must have food to eat.
Without food, this army will completely collapse in less than a day.
We must find a way to survive the food crisis, otherwise, the entire Goguryeo army will face a devastating blow.
Looking at the quartermaster, Quan Gaisuwen's heart moved, and he murmured the quartermaster's words, "There are only corpses and blood."
The next moment, Quan Gaisuwen's eyes lit up. He thought of a way to temporarily overcome the current crisis. Although it would not last long, the army would not collapse directly.
Thinking of this, he called Quan Nanjian to his side and whispered.
When Quan Nanjian heard Quan Gaisuwen's words, he couldn't help but be shocked, and said in a trembling voice: "Father, have you really decided to do this?"
"This is the only way to prevent the army from disintegrating in a short period of time." Quan Gaisuwen said.
"I understand." Quan Nanjian nodded.
"Remember, do it cleanly." Quan Gaisuwen whispered.
"Don't worry, father, this matter will never leak out."
After Quan Nanjian finished speaking, he took three thousand cavalry and left with Juechen.
Looking at Quan Nanjian's retreating back, a chill flashed through Quan Gaisuwen's eyes. He knew that although his plan was vicious, it was the only way to solve the problem of food and fodder for the army, and it was also his only hope for a comeback
Pu Xun was one of the most elite assault cavalry in Goguryeo. In the previous half of the battle, Pu Xun was very brave. Once he even climbed to the top of Anshi City. Although he was eventually driven back by the Tang army, Pu Xun The bravery of training greatly inspired the morale of the Goguryeo army.
It¡¯s just that since last night until now, they have been fighting for seven or eight hours, and Pu Xun hasn¡¯t even had a bite of food.
At this time, Pu Xun was already hungry, his body was shaking with hunger and he had no strength.
At this moment, the gang leader army brought up the big wooden barrel, and a fragrant smell of meat penetrated Pu Xun's nose.
Opening the barrel, I saw steam rising from inside, and the streams of meat made everyone¡¯s eyes red and they kept swallowing their saliva.
The gang leader gave everyone a bowl of meat, and Pu Xun immediately took a big bite. He felt that the meat was extremely delicious. He had never eaten such delicious meat.
Pu Xun found something similar to a claw in the bowl. He just took it out to chew. The next moment, his pupils quickly dilated. Pu Xun was surprised to find that the "claw" in the bowl turned out to be a finger with nails.
In an instant, Pu Xun realized that what he had just eaten was human flesh!
"Wow!" Pu Xun kept vomiting and vomited all over the floor.
¡°It smells good, it smells so good!¡±
The soldiers on the side didn¡¯t understand why Pu Xun vomited, but they were still eating with relish.
Not far away, two officers were patrolling with swords in their hands. Pu Xun knew that if he revealed the matter of cannibalism, he might be the next one to be eaten.
"Eat quickly!" The two officials looked at Pu Xun. Pu Xun forced himself to eat the leftover meat in the bowl. The two officials saw that Pu Xun had finished eating the meat. City!¡±
Quan Gaisuwen had mixed feelings at this time. In order to provide food for the army and prevent it from collapsing, he asked his son Quan Nanjian to take 3,000 soldiers to the surrounding areas for customers to take civilians. After beheading them, the meat would be shaved off for the soldiers to eat. .
These soldiers killed tens of thousands of people. All the residents of the villages near Anshi City were killed and hundreds of thousands of kilograms of meat were obtained.
But even so, the human flesh obtained can only feed an army of 300,000 people for two days at most.
Quan Gaisuwen knew that if Anshi City could not be captured within two days, the 300,000-strong army would not even be able to eat human flesh. At that time, they would have no choice but to collapse on their own.
Within two days, Anshi City must be captured!
Quan Gaisuwen decided to go into battle personally and command the soldiers to attack Anshi City day and night!
At the head of Anshi City, Xue Rengui's face was solemn. The Goguryeo people had been attacking Anshi City for two consecutive days and two nights, and there was still no sign of easing up.
Xue Rengui gritted his teeth and said to Li Zhen: "Your Majesty, these Goguryeo people are really crazy. They seem to be tireless and regardless of life and death. It seems that they will never give up until Anshi City is captured."
Li Zhen shook her head and said calmly: "The crazier the Goguryeo people are, the more it shows that they are at the end of their war effort."
"Rengui, pay attention, found nothing? "
Xue Rengui shook his head.
Li Zhen chuckled and said: "These Goguryeo soldiers who attacked Anshi are all wearing bright armor and are not afraid of death, which shows that they are the most elite troops of Goguryeo. There will never be too many such troops, and one of them will die.
And judging from their offensive, there is absolutely nothing they can do against Anshi City. If the attack continues like this, by the time most of these elite soldiers are dead, the Goguryeo people will also collapse. "
Xue Rengui suddenly realized it and said: "Your Majesty, this is what you usually call the ability to destroy the enemy. Injuring ten of his fingers is worse than cutting off one of his fingers."
Li Zhen nodded and said: "Yes, when these bravest warriors of Goguryeo are almost dead, the Goguryeo soldiers will have no combat effectiveness. Although they number 300,000, they are just a bunch of rabble."
"Besides, the Goguryeo people probably have no food. They won't be able to survive for long. They will collapse in one day at most!"
"Okay, I'll let the brothers hold on a little longer!" After Xue Rengui finished speaking, he took Fang Tian's painted halberd and once again rushed to the front line battlefield at the top of the city
The battle has been going on for three days and three nights.
During these three days and nights, the Goguryeo people almost never stopped attacking Anshi City, and the Tang army in Anshi City also suffered losses, losing two to three thousand people.
"Had Li Zhen not been prepared in advance, dividing all the soldiers and young men into two groups, and taking turns to rest and defend the city, the losses would have been much greater.
The losses of the Goguryeo army were far greater than those of the Tang army. In the three days of fighting, the Goguryeo army lost at least 20,000 people.
These 20,000 men were the most elite troops of Goguryeo. Their loss caused the combat effectiveness of the Goguryeo army to drop off a cliff.
The combat effectiveness of an army does not depend on the number of people, but on the number and degree of elite soldiers.
Just like the Taiping Rebellion in the Qing Dynasty, the loyal king Li Xiucheng gathered tens of thousands of troops to eliminate Li Xubin, the most capable Hunan army, causing hundreds of thousands of Hunan troops to retreat in a short period of time.
In the subsequent Battle of Yuhuatai, 10,000 elite Hunan troops repelled the attack of 400,000 Taiping troops, and finally broke through Tianjing and eliminated the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.
The most elite troops of the Goguryeo army numbered about 30,000, and 5,000 of them were wiped out in Houhuang City. At the foot of Anshi City, another 5,000 elite troops of Quannan were wiped out.
¡°Coupled with the 20,000 Goguryeo troops who died in the past few days, they are all the most elite troops. So far, the essence of the Goguryeo army has been almost wiped out (Remember this website¡¯s website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
