The collision between the Divine Guard Battalion and the barbarian cavalry came later than Yang Yuan expected.

Because the barbarians slowed down their advance, they needed more time and energy to spend collecting supplies.

Less than three hundred miles away from Sanyang Town, the terrain is flat and the water source is abundant. In the past, this place has always been a major grain-producing county in Cangyang County.

However, this place has become a hell on earth. The once-in-a-century drought has reduced the grain production here to the lowest level, which is almost less than 30% of the normal level.

The continuous drought in the second half of the year made it impossible for the second crop to grow.

The common people mourned, but the big landlords were happy.

If the grain harvest fails, the price of grain will naturally rise, and the price will rise sharply.

No matter how high the food price rises, as long as you have a copper coin in your hand, you have to spend it on food.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"Our family's land can increase by a few percent."

"Borrow, lend them, as long as you have land as collateral, you can borrow as much as you want!"

...

It was a disaster, but also a carnival.

The response of the government was relatively quick, and the county magistrate quickly sent people out to curb grain prices and crack down on the behavior of buying and selling farmland in large quantities.

But the effect is very little, or that sentence, people have to live after all.

It is impossible to survive by eating dirt alone.

Don't ordinary farmers know that they will have a miserable life tomorrow after selling their fields?

I know, they know better than anyone how miserable such a day will be.

But there is no way, either die today, or live a miserable tomorrow, always choose one.

Ants still steal their lives, let alone humans?

Be miserable, just be miserable, as long as you don't starve to death.

Yang Yuan understands one thing very well, starving to death is one of the most terrifying and painful ways to die in this world.

Finally survived!

I don't know how many people sold their ancestral family properties and fields, owed huge debts, and finally survived the disaster year.

They should be proud of their tenacity.

But the people in Cangyuan County don't know that the greater crying is yet to come.

Natural disasters are followed by man-made disasters.

Just when the landlords were rejoicing for the harvest and the common people were rejoicing for their lives, the barbarians invaded south.

A thunderbolt from the blue sky!

Countless people are paralyzed at their door, and countless people have fallen into numbness, come on, come on!

The big landlords also panicked at this time, and they began to transfer property and food to the south and the mountains, "Hurry up! Hurry up! Those barbarians are coming soon, and you will all die by then."

But there is no shortage of self-righteous people at any time. When everyone is trying to escape from here, there are always people who are dreaming of getting rich.

Everyone is gone, if I stay, will I be able to buy the bottom, then I will be the biggest landlord in Cangyuan County.

Barbarians don't necessarily have to kill people, they also need people to cooperate with them.

Haven't seen the barbarians yet, the traitors have already begun to think about how to get the best benefit for themselves.

da da da da...

A group of cavalry broke into Cangyuan County. The county seat was already under martial law, and no entry or exit was allowed. Those who were thrown into the county in advance suddenly felt a little regretful when they saw the barbarian cavalry galloping outside. Is the county really safe?

Everyone knows that barbarian cavalry are not good at siege.

But the city wall of Cangyuan County is only three feet long, and the city guards are only three thousand soldiers, of which more than one thousand are militiamen from various villages and towns. With these alone, can they really stop the barbarian cavalry?

I'm afraid not.

Broken Broken!

Should have gone south.

No, you can't run south. It is impossible to run past these cavalry on the plains. You should run into the mountains. Only the mountains and forests can stop the large cavalry.

But it's too late to say anything now, other than hoping to keep the county seat,

They have no choice.

There were 5,000 barbarian cavalry attacking Cangyuan County, which was a bit of a waste for the barbarians.

Except for the county seat in Cangyuan County, which can still resist, other places are almost defenseless against the barbarians.

The barbarian leader led 5,000 cavalry to Cangyuan County, and found that the city wall was ready.

The sneak attack plan failed, so he could only choose to attack by force.

This made him feel a little pity, but he was not very angry when things had come to this.

His previous plan was to raid the county seat, sweep the entire Cangyuan County after controlling the county seat, and then transport food and other spoils back.

Now that the plan has failed, the sneak attack has changed to a strong attack, the casualties will definitely be greater, and time will be wasted.

"Go back to camp and attack tomorrow. Keep an eye on them tonight. From now on, I won't allow a single person in this city to run out."

"yes."

Da da da……

The 5,000 barbarian cavalry were divided into several teams and started to act. Some went back to camp, some went to patrol in the distance, and the other part ran around Cangyuan County, putting pressure on the people in the city.

The general defending the city wall was relieved to see that the barbarian cavalry did not launch an attack. He knew that now was a good opportunity to fight against the barbarian cavalry, but he did not dare to move out at will.

Keeping Cangyuan County well is the most meaningful thing I can do.

The barbarian cavalry is indeed not very good at attacking the city, especially when the soldiers defending the city are full of fighting spirit.

The barbarian cavalry and shooting put a lot of pressure on the soldiers defending the city, but the casualties caused were not too great. After dismounting, can the barbarian cavalry still be called cavalry?

Barbarian leaders are not pedantic people, they have their own understanding of war.

"You bring people to guard here and trap the people of Shunguo inside. I don't believe they can stay inside with peace of mind."

"yes."

The barbarian leader left 3,000 cavalry to blockade Cangyuan County, and then took 2,000 cavalry to sweep other places.

People in the county are protected by city walls. I wonder what you have?

People in Cangyuan County; we have legs.

Faced with the brutal barbarians, most people chose to flee, and their choice was correct. Those who remained were either ruined and became slaves, or turned to the barbarians and became traitors.

The appearance of Xia Jian is more terrifying than the barbarian cavalry.

The destructive power of a traitor was comparable to that of a hundred barbarian cavalry. Under their leadership, the barbarian cavalry looted one village after another and killed countless innocent people.

When Yang Yuan came out of Sanyang Mountain, what he saw was this tragic scene.

About 150 barbarian cavalry are charging in a village.

They used the villagers as training targets, and easily harvested their lives with bows and sabers.

When Yang Yuan saw a seven or eight-year-old child tied to a tree surrounded by four or five barbarians competing with his body in archery, the anger in his heart could no longer be contained.

He forgot all about self-cultivation, patience and restraint. Before, he only heard about the brutality of the barbarians. Originally, Yang Yuan thought that he already knew a lot about brutality.

He has seen a lot of cruel history in his last life.

But when these tragic images were in front of him, Yang Yuan admitted that he had overestimated himself before.

Cruelty isn't just two words on paper, it's blood and death.

Some creatures look alike, but in fact they are two completely different species.

Yang Yuan's dislike for barbarians has never been so strong as it is now.

Looking at the mess and the scene of fireworks all over the village, he gritted his teeth and said two words: "Attack!"

"kill!"

Zhao Long also witnessed all this. Although he was not shocked by the brutality of the barbarians, he still disdained them.

The real strong never take pleasure in killing the weak!

Barbarian cavalry, damn it!
