"Lord, the four gates of Macheng have all been dug up, so that the Xianbei cavalry can't walk out half of it!" In the afternoon, Meng Hu came to Ye Zhao's tent and bowed.

"Where is Li Xing's soldiers now?" Ye Zhao asked.

"According to the Malay newspaper, Gao Liu has passed and is speeding up his journey. He should be able to arrive before noon the next day."

"Ali." Ye Zhao nodded and turned his head to look at Ding Lidao.

"Here!" Ding Li stepped forward and bowed.

"Three thousand men are divided into three teams. Every hour, take people to Macheng for a walk, don't let the Xianbei people emerge." Ye Zhao said in a deep voice: "Remember, just suppress them with bows and arrows, don't attack hard."

"Yes! I will remember it in the end!" Ding Li agreed.

"Lord, the Xianbei people have lost their horsepower. Even if they are toothless tigers, why don't we attack the city directly? Even if there are only three thousand people, the last general has the confidence to kill them without leaving any armor!" Guan Hai clasped his fists and said in a deep voice.

"Silly!" Ye Zhao glared at him: "I hurt one thousand enemies, and I hurt eight hundred of them. I just trapped the horse pit outside the city, but I didn't dig it into the city. Now that I'm in, even if I kill them, our troops will be disabled. This is what the reckless man does. It's not worth it to use my elite troops to fight against these Xianbei people to lose both sides."

"You go to Ning County, transfer some tincture oil and burn the four Beijing officials outside Macheng. The weather is getting hotter and hotter. If this continues, there will be a plague. By then, not only will Macheng become a dead city, but no one in our place will escape." Ye Zhao waved.

"Here!" Guan Hai bowed and took the order, turned around and left.

"Lord, since there is a secret passage available, why don't we use it immediately?" After Guan Hai, Ding Li, Meng Hu and others left, Qiu Chi looked at Ye Zhao with some confusion.

"It's not the time." Ye Zhao shook his head: "The enemy's courage has not been lost, and this is not the best time. Even if we cut off the enemy's food and supplies, force them to get angry and abandon the horse and fight in a staircase, our army is not afraid, but losses are inevitable. When the enemy loses its spirit and loses the courage to fight our army, then it will be the time to kill."

"I just worry that even if we burn the food and grass in the city, there is still a lot of surplus grain in the hands of the people..." Qiu Chi said with some concern.

Ye Zhao turned around and looked at Qiu Chi and said, "Are there any Han people in the city?"

"This..." Qiu Chi's expression changed when he heard this: "Didn't the lord say that everyone who wishes to be naturalized is Han people?"

"Naturalization is the heart of the people." Ye Zhao sighed: "If Macheng can stand here for ten years, there will naturally be no difference between Hu and Han in the city. The people of the people are naturally all of our Han people. But now, those people have just become naturalized. At this moment, He Lian will definitely turn against us and even help He Lian slaughter our Han people. I originally wanted to use the method of naturalization to embezzle the grasslands. After a hundred years, there will be no Hu and Han. Unfortunately... People's hearts have not been attached. If Macheng is not destroyed, those people will feel a sense of belonging to our Han people over time. But now, a defeat will be destroyed in two years. Even if Macheng is taken back, those people will no longer be attached to our Han people. Since that is the case, what's the use of staying? Let them bury the dead Han people in the city."

"This..." Qiu Chi looked at Ye Zhao and felt cold all over. Ye Zhao's light sentence cut off all the remaining lives in Macheng. Qiu Chi couldn't help but say, "But lord, they have food in their hands. If they ignore it, wouldn't that let the Lian Geng have the capital to confront our army?"

"Isn't that right?" Ye Zhao sneered: "It happened to be a battle for food by evil dogs. He ordered the surrounding counties to transport all the turbulent oil in the city here. I don't want this Macheng anymore, so I let Helian and his men bury the dead Han people in the city. "

Qiu Chi felt cold in his heart, and he bowed silently to Ye Zhao, saying goodbye and leaving.

Ye Zhao was really interested in killing this time. The four capital officials outside the city were like a needle in his heart. The Han people in Macheng were all recruited from various counties and counties in Youzhou with low taxes. Originally, they wanted to increase the proportion of Hu Han in Macheng, so that Han people could occupy the absolute dominance, and gradually synchronize the naturalized Hu people. In dozens or hundreds of years, there would be no Hu Han.

But although his idea was good, this time, Ye Zhao's inaction with Lian Kou Bian and Sun De made Ye Zhao's painstaking efforts go to waste. The first person to attack Lian Pocheng was definitely the Han people in the city. After all, Xianbei also needs population. Xianbei people, Wuhuan people, and Helian may not move, and they will even take the initiative to win over them. The four high mountains of Beijing officials, the Han people in the city are probably here.

It’s not that Ye Zhao wants to give up his efforts, but that even if he takes back Macheng and lets him manage it again, it will be difficult to return to his heyday. The Han people are not endless. Youzhou is bitter and cold, and the population is not prosperous. This killing is equivalent to killing all the refugees that Youzhou can attract. Moreover, after this battle, no matter how straightforward he wins, the shadow of war will sweep like a plague. At that time, who else is willing to come to this place? Maybe one day when the Hu people attack the border, they will lose their lives.

In the next day, Ding Li kept commanding the soldiers to take turns to shoot arrows. He had already made marks before. The Xianbei people could not shoot the bows and arrows, but the Han people could shoot the head of the city. After a day, Helian had almost given up the defense of the city wall.

The range is not enough, so I can only watch people shoot arrows at me, passively beating, and I don’t dare to leave the city. Until now, I still don’t understand why my cavalry fell as soon as they leave the city.

"Can anyone tell me what's going on? Why do our warriors trip over as soon as they leave the city?" In the county government, He Lian had already smashed all the things that could be smashed. On the ground, several naked women had fallen into pools of blood. They were vented by He Lian's indignation and then killed them with swords.

Fear spread in He Lian's heart. Although he still had thousands of elite royal soldiers in his hands, he could not suppress the panic in his heart.

In the past, he had not fought with the Han army. Although the Han army was powerful, it did not make him powerless. But this time, facing the Captain of the Wuhuan, he felt powerful and had nowhere to use it. So far, the eight thousand iron cavalry he brought had had thousands of people broken by Ye Zhao's hands, but Ye Zhao had almost no losses.

"Where is Kuitou and Budugen? They are blind!" He Lian roared angrily.

What made him most frightened was that at this moment, Ma Cheng was almost isolated from the world. He could not receive any external information, nor could he ask the royal court for help, and he couldn't even get out of the city. The feeling of waiting for death made him crazy.
