Madam, She Has a Tender Heart

This winter in the mountains was not cold at all. Reading М is even more comfortable than ever before.

It's not cold at home, there's plenty of food in stock, and the elderly and children aren't cold. Everyone in the village carries a bag of nuts and millet and goes to each house to chat. Really pleasant.

But people outside also say that this winter is particularly difficult, dire and miserable.

Soldiers were called out from time to time, and taxes were also paid heavily. There was not enough to grow in the fields to pay the taxes, and the people abandoned their fields and fled. It is difficult to see people in every township and village.

There was a fight for territory everywhere. Wherever the army went, soldiers were recruited along the way. In order to have a piece of food, many men joined the army one after another, and some even fled to the mountains.

In Chenzhou in the north, Wang Hu personally led hundreds of thousands of troops to besiege Chenzhou, vowing not to return Chenzhou until it was broken.

Meng Kai, the most capable subordinate, died. He was beheaded in such a humiliating way, leaving even his body intact.

This great revenge must be avenged.

Originally, although Wanghu lost Kyoto and Chang'an, many people in this dilapidated and decadent Shuo Dynasty would rather it fell. Therefore, Wang Hu won supporters from all sides, put him on the throne, and proclaimed himself emperor in the Eastern Capital.

Originally, Emperor Shuo was not a man of great achievements, and he did not take any effective measures after regaining Chang'an.

The various military towns in the Shuo Dynasty were busy dividing the spoils after regaining Chang'an and returning to their camps. Once the troops were dispersed, it would be hard to achieve anything. If Wang Hu could take this opportunity to capture the hearts of the people, it would be able to become bigger and stronger.

Who would have thought that Meng Kai would die before he could sit firmly in Dongdu!

Who is Meng Kai? He is Wang Hu’s most capable general! With Wang Hu's temper, how could he endure his death? How can we not avenge this great hatred?

So he personally led hundreds of thousands of troops out to besiege Chenzhou.

As soon as Wang Hu withdrew from Dongdu, Emperor Shuo took advantage.

Originally, Shuo Chao had been unable to attack the east for a long time, but Wang Hu himself did not want to abandon the east. Shuohuang was particularly happy to find this bargain.

Wang Hu prides himself on being an ambitious and ambitious person.

Look, if he wants Chang'an, he can take it, and if he doesn't want it, he can take it. Chang'an is gone, but Dongdu is gone? If the east is gone, how can the southern and western capitals not become emperors?

It's just like Emperor Shuo. If Chang'an is gone, he will live or die.

What's more important is to avenge Meng Kai.

As for Zhao Zhao, the governor of Chenzhou, he naturally took a series of precautions against Meng Kai's attack.

He ordered people to constantly build battlegrounds, hoard food and grass, and repair weapons.

Before Wang Hu arrived, he adopted the strategy of strengthening the walls and clearing the country, and moved all residents within a radius of 60 miles into the city. At the same time, he summoned a large number of sergeants and recruited soldiers from various places, and gave them to his younger brother and second son to lead respectively to strengthen the city defense.

Under the persistence of the governor Zhao Zhao, the small Chenzhou was unable to be attacked by Wang Hu for a long time.

Seeing that his army of hundreds of thousands could not even defeat the small town of Chenzhou, Wang Hu was extremely angry!

So hundreds of thousands of troops directly garrisoned under the city of Chenzhou and set up camp. They decided to take it slowly. I didn't believe it. How could Chenzhou be taken down by such a small person? He will starve to death.

Wang Hu said that he would not return Chen Zhou until he was broken!

They are all people who have been emperors, and they still have this courage and charisma.

Wang Hu and Chenzhou's soldiers, as well as the various soldiers who came to support from Shuo Dynasty, fought many times, large and small, but could not capture it.

It doesn't mean that the soldiers of Shuo Dynasty are better than the soldiers of Wang Hu. Originally, Wang Hu wanted to surround Chenzhou and planned to starve Zhao Zhao to death.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Zhao did not starve to death, but Wang Hu was out of food.

Wanghu is out of food again!

Wang Hu originally thought that hundreds of thousands of troops were besieging the small Chenzhou and would be able to return soon. Who knew that Chenzhou could not be invaded after being besieged for so long.

Wang Hu's hundreds of thousands of troops didn't bring much food to begin with. With an army of hundreds of thousands, they still can't capture the small city of Chenzhou? Maybe it's a little too shaky.

In addition, Wang Hu's usual style is to raid one place to grab the granary in one place.

But, before he arrived, Zhao Zhao adopted a policy of strengthening the walls and clearing out the wilderness, sweeping away a sixty-mile radius, leaving not a grain of rice or a bean for him.

This is so embarrassing.

Wang Hu has hundreds of thousands of troops at his disposal. These hundreds of thousands are eaten by humans and chewed by horses. This consumes an astronomical figure every day.

No food!

Then sixty miles away, the collection was collected. But there was no human habitation sixty miles away, and there was no food in the villages, towns, or towns to pay him.

You can't starve to death. What to eat?

There was no way hundreds of thousands of troops could wait to starve to death. Wang Hu began to think of a way, which was to eat human flesh.

There is a record in the later book: "The thieves surrounded Chen County for three days. There was still no crops in Guandong. People were leaning against the wall. The thieves captured people and ate them, killing thousands every day. The thieves had a grinding mill village with hundreds of huge pots, and they gave birth to people. If you break it into pieces and eat it together with the bones, it will be poisonous."

"The people were so hungry that they leaned against the city's moat and captured the thieves to eat. Thousands of people a day built hundreds of huge pots of rice cakes, minced the bones and skins in mortars, and ate them."

"At that time, there was no accumulation among the people, so thieves plundered people for food, threw them alive into clay pots, and ate their bones. The place where the food was given was called 'Chung Mo Village'. The soldiers plundered from Henan, Xu, Ru, Tang, Deng, and Meng Dozens of states including Zheng, Bian, Cao, Pu, Xu, and Gun were all poisoned by it."

"Yaya, run, run!"

Su Qingliu stumbled and ran forward without daring to look back.

It turned out that the mother and daughter had been imprisoned for several days, and they were already hungry and weak. He finally escaped, but before he could escape the sight of the thief, he was discovered and chased after him.

"Run? Watch where you run!"

A soldier chased after her, threw Su Qingliu to the ground, and kicked her on the waist. With the squeaking, Su Qingliu felt that her waist might be broken.

Not to mention that, the man violently hit Su Qingliu's head on the ground several times with his hand.

"Run, you run! You bitch, you still have the energy to run. I should have thrown you into the grate last night and crushed you with a stone mortar!"

Su Qingliu's whole body was shaking, and her teeth were chattering.

I don’t know if it’s because I’m cold or scared.

She has pounded rice countless times, but the big pound here is not used for pounding rice, but for pounding human flesh.

The people were thrown into a large stone trough. A dozen people stepped on the large horizontal bar. The large round stones crushed the people in the stone trough to pieces, and then they were thrown into the pot to cook...

Su Qingliu shed tears, raised her head with difficulty, and glanced at the place where Yaya escaped, Yaya, run, run! Run faster!

When the man saw her raising her head, he stepped on her head heavily with his foot and pushed her head to the ground.

He still crushed her head with his foot: "You are so happy now, and you are still worried about your cub. Don't worry, she will not be missed. I will catch her later and let her be your companion." Put you mother and daughter together in the stone trough and pound them together, so that you can be companions together in the underworld. "

Su Qingliu clenched her fists tightly and struggled a lot, but she couldn't break free at all.

His face was on the ground, tears streaming from his eyes. It doesn't matter if she dies, but Yaya is still so young.

I imagined that Yaya was thrown into a big stone trough, to be crushed bit by bit, and then put into a big pot to be boiled...

Su Qingliu's whole body was in pain as if someone had cut it out inch by inch with a knife.

The daughter she gave birth to in ten months of pregnancy...

This time the mother and daughter are afraid that they will have to confess here.

I don’t know where my parents, brothers and sisters are, or whether they will be reunited one day in the underworld.

She was so tired that she couldn't run anymore. Su Qingliu slowly closed her eyes.
