In Luzhou City, Tian Yue is undoubtedly the loudest now.

Whoever has the strongest strength will have the greatest voice. What's more, Tian Yue now controls all the food and various logistics supplies in the city.

Even after Zhu Youzhen arrived in Luzhou City, he had to surrender to Tian Yue. Even if he was Zhu Wen's son, the son of the hero who had already captured Luoyang and Chang'an, who was about to arrive in life, he could only listen to Tian Yue in Luzhou.

It is better to be in charge than to be in the current official position.

Now Luzhou seems to be a three-way force.

The Wei Bo power of Tian family, the Zhaoyi power of Xue family, and the Xuanwu power of Zhu Youzhen. But in fact, it was divided. Tian Ping and Tian Yue did not deal with each other in the Tian family, but now the powerful foreign enemies are facing each other, and they barely join hands. Among the Xue family forces, Xue Chong and Xue Jian are not close. As for Zhu Youzhen's command, the components are even more complicated. There are both Xuanwu soldiers, Zhaoyi soldiers, and the included Shence Army.

It seems that the soldiers and horses in Luzhou are mixed together, and there are 70,000 to 80,000, but it is really not an ordinary difficulty to make them unite and work together.

Perhaps when the Wuwei Army and Hedong Army launched a large-scale attack outside the city, these people could unite and resist together, but as long as the war eased or stopped, conflicts within them would erupt without being controlled.

There are too many contradictions.

The most likely thing to trigger conflicts is the supply of logistics supplies.

In Luzhou City, Tian Yue was actually prepared for a long time. Before Tian Chengsi died, he also gave Tian Yue the instructions that he must keep Luzhou. Therefore, Tian Yue collected a large amount of food and grass in Luzhou, and Tian Yue also made full preparations for the difficulties.

But the problem is that when he made these preparations, he only estimated Wei Bo's military strength and Zhaoyi's military strength, and did not count Zhu Youzhen's subordinates. Now Zhu Youzhen's retreat has been cut off and he has no choice but to retreat into Luzhou City. More than 30,000 troops have suddenly increased, which has immediately tightened the supply in Luzhou.

More than 30,000 troops, people eat and horses chew, and their daily consumption is a terrifying number.

With such an extra force, the original distribution quota must be distributed, breaking the original balance, and the supply of people will naturally be greatly reduced. Tian Yue will naturally not let his direct descendants suffer losses, so the small amount will be borne by Tian Ping and Xue.

The food in their own pot was pried away, and the daily supply was greatly reduced. From being able to eat enough to being hungry every day, Tian Ping, Xue Jian, Xue Chong and others were naturally full of resentment. Even as generals of the commanding army and understanding the current situation, the soldiers under their command did not think so.

If you can’t even eat enough, how can you bring up weapons to fight?

Faced with such a situation, Tian Ping and Xue Jian and Xue Chong naturally had to compete for their subordinates' interests, otherwise the subordinates' morale would be the ones who would be unlucky first.

Military meetings every three days are now held at military meetings, and there are many quarrels about the distribution of logistics supplies at the meetings.

After another fierce quarrel, the generals of various ministries parted ways. Some people were ashamed of being arrogant, while others were indignant. In such distribution meetings, some people would always benefit and some would suffer losses.

And there is no doubt that every time the Xue family loses, they are all soldiers.

Tian Yue would not suffer any loss because the things were under his control. Even though Tian Ping was incompatible with Tian Yue, his troops were also elite Wei Bo and his brothers. At this time, no matter how estranged his heart was, he would not be hungry. Zhu Youzhen was originally a weak side, but now Cao Huan led a large army to support and had already entered Weizhou, his voice suddenly became louder.

In this way, the only way is to let the Xue brothers be wronged.

The original owners of Luzhou, the Xue brothers, have now fallen to the point where they cannot even eat enough to eat.

"Dalang, what's the war between you?" Xue Jian saw Xue Chong with a gloomy face and took the initiative to greet him. The Xue clan in Luzhou City is now the two people in charge of Xue Jian and Xue Chong, but the situations of the two are still many different. As the leader of the Tian family to Zhaoyi, Xue Chong's life is much better than Xue Jian. At least until now, he still has an army alone. In the north city, he has independent resistance to Yang Zhihe's troops in Xingzhou. He is still qualified to speak at such a military meeting.

In comparison, Xue Chong was much more miserable. His troops suffered heavy losses and had now been incorporated into Tian Ping's command. Like Pei Zhiqing, he obeyed Tian Ping's command to fight against You Yong's troops in the east.

However, in terms of the generation of the Xue clan, Xue Chong is the same as Xue Ping and is also the leader, but he was just a frustrated side house of the Xue clan. However, Xue Jian was the former brother of Xue Song, the prince of Yanping County, and Xue Chong also called him Uncle Fourth.

"Uncle Fourth, I am fine. I am very good at Yang Zhi and Zhi, but Cheng Xu is a little difficult to deal with. The Shen Ce Army is a bit scary when fighting, which makes people feel a little trouble."

Xue Jian sighed: "I really don't know what Wuwei has. Even a fish belly like Shence Army changed its appearance after swaying around Wuwei, and became so difficult. Alas, after doing this today, are your soldiers still full?"

Xue Chong's face was gloomy: "There is already a problem. I can only let the rotating soldiers eat full. If I don't take the rotating soldiers, I just have a full meal a day. If this continues, I really don't know what it will be like?"

"Tian Ping is pretty good to me. He can barely fill his stomach with two meals a day, but there is no oil or water. When I go back and transfer some food to you, I can at least hold on." Xue Jian said.

Xue Chong was a little surprised and moved. He bowed to Xue Jian and said, "Uncle Fourth, I really have to thank you for this. You have solved my trouble."

"It's all the Xue family. Why do you still have such a clear distinction when you are like this? Speaking of which, I haven't thanked you for your life-saving grace? Let's go to Deyilou, I'll invite you to have a good meal." Xue Jian said.

Xue Chong smiled: "The city looks like this now, and Deyi Building has been closed long ago. What can they have, even if they have it, have been confiscated?"

Xue Jian smiled: "No matter what, there is still some old foundation in a place like Deyilou. Of course, no matter what, others don't have it. When we go, they can still get a whole table after rummaging through the bottom of the box."

Deyilou is a time-honored brand in Luzhou City, and it is longer than when the Xue family ruled in Luzhou City. Of course, it is closed now, and only the shopkeeper and two or three old friends remain. As for the boss of Deyilou, I heard that he had already run away, and even the shopkeeper did not know where the boss had gone.

Xue Jian and Xue Chong, the old shopkeeper naturally recognized it. As Xue Jian said, if others don’t entertain, they will naturally have to entertain. In the small house next to the kitchen, a small table was set up. The old shopkeeper personally cooked and even prepared two meats, three vegetables and a soup. The rice was just corn. Fortunately, the old shopkeeper actually dug a jar of wine from the ground, which made Xue Jian and Xue Chong very happy.

"I didn't expect that we couldn't eat enough every day, and you old guy still had good things hidden." Xue Jian smiled at the old shopkeeper and scolded: "We usually hide here to eat delicious food, but we work hard on the top of the city. You know what you know, otherwise I would have to demolish your Deyi Building today."

The old shopkeeper bent down and laughed: "After living for fifty or sixty years, I always remember to hide something for emergencies. Others don't come from it. But General Xue comes, even if he doesn't eat it himself, he has to take it out to honor the two of you."

Xue Jian waved his hand and said, "Okay, I will remember what you said today. Go and you have something to say."

The old shopkeeper left.

"Dalang, I'll give you a cup first. If you hadn't been to report the message, I would have been killed by Xue Jin. Now the grave has grown grass." Xue Jian raised his glass and said.

Xue Chong smiled bitterly and raised his glass and drank it all.

The two stopped talking and even drank several glasses of wine, with a little drunk on their faces. Xue Jian sighed again: "Dalang, I really regret it now. You said, if I didn't raise an army at the beginning, I would just hand over the territory of my army to my second son, learn from Erlang by myself, and run back to my hometown to be a rich man, wouldn't it be better?"

Xue Chong sighed, "Uncle Fourth, are you willing?"

"Yes, I'm not willing to give up, but I'm not willing to give up." Xue Jian shook his head slowly and said, "It's just that things are now, and they are more than 100,800 miles apart from what we think. The second child is dead, and I heard that the corpse is gone. Kough, even King Fu has turned into a handful of ashes, what is he worth."

Speaking of this, both of them fell silent again. The food on the table was the best food they had seen these days, but both of them were boring.

"Erlang, do you think we can defend Luzhou?"

"Maybe, didn't Cao Huan already arrive in Weizhou? Otherwise, why would Zhu Youzhen be so arrogant today?" Xue Jian said. "If we can hold on for a while, the Wuwei army will be attacked on both sides, and they may withdraw their troops. Didn't Tian Yue say that Wei Bojie Town is already organizing troops to directly attack Yizhou to break the siege of Luzhou?"

Xue Chong smiled and lowered his voice and said, "Liar, Tian Ping told me that Wei Bo's main force had been drawn, and now it is almost all concentrated in Luzhou. Tian Xu and Tian Huai in Wei Bo are even more indifferent. The soldiers are indeed recruited, but their envoys are running hard to Wuyi!"

Xue Chong's hand shook, and the wine in the cup immediately spilled out.

"This, is this true? Why didn't Tian Ping tell Tian Yue about this situation?"

"Tian Ping must have participated," Xue Jian curled his lips and said, "Don't forget that Tian Ping is Tian Shuai's biological son, Tian Yue is just his nephew. Tian Shuai was seriously injured at that time, and only Tian Yue was around. Who knows what Tian Shuai's last words were going on?"

Xue Chong was shocked and speechless.
