Transmigrating To Ancient Times With A Kitchen

Although the king did not agree with the plan to divide the Wei Kingdom with the other countries, he still agreed to increase the number of troops to attack Huan City directly.

When they took down Yu City, they only had 70,000 troops left. These 70,000 troops were temporarily recuperating in Yu City. The king of Qing Kingdom transferred 50,000 troops from other places and gave the order to take down

Huan City.

Huan City.

Huan City magistrate Zhang Yuanwu stood on the city wall, frowning and looking in the direction of Yu City.

The chief physician Pang Xin said in a rough voice, “Those Qing Kingdom bastards won’t attack Huan City again, right? Although they took down Yu City, they paid a huge price and more than half of their men were killed or injured.”

“Not necessarily,” Zhang Yuanwu frowned.

Pang Xin looked at him in confusion. “Why? Could it be that they would still send an army over? If it wasn’t for the fact that I’m afraid that His Majesty’s orders haven’t arrived, I would have taken my troops to take back Yu City. If it wasn’t for the underhanded tactics, how could those lousy soldiers and generals take down Yu City?”

“Have you heard about the high-yield crops?” Zhang Yuanwu asked in a deep voice.

“Of course, ” Pang Xin replied loudly. “Who hasn’t heard of this before? An acre of land can produce more than 500 kilograms. I’ve never heard of such an outrageous thing in my life.”

“I’ve received news from other state cities that the high-yield crops have all been harvested and will be expanded throughout the Wei Kingdom. Qing Kingdom must have heard the news as well. If they believe it, they’ll be so desperate that they’ll try to attack Huan City to prevent Wei Kingdom from rising again.”

Pang Xin’s attention was all on the first half of his words. He said in surprise, “Really?! Would the entire Great Wei plant high-yield crops in the future? It means that our Huan City will have one too! That’s great, no one will go hungry!’

Speaking of this, Zhang Yuanwu’s face also had a faint smile. “That’s why we have to hold on until the grain seeds are sent. I don’t know what the emperor’s attitude towards Yu City is now. There’s no news at all.

“Don’t think too much. It must be good news. The Emperor won’t leave it alone. Otherwise, what will happen to Huan city?”

Zhang Yuanwu nodded. “I just hope they come soon. Otherwise, we won’t be able to sustain the food reserves in the city. The war is more important now, and we can’t just let the people in to pay this year’s grain tax.”

Speaking of this, both of them were a little worried. Huan City had to care for more than just themselves. Before Yu City was attacked, they took in a large number of people. After that, they also took in many defeated soldiers. These people had to be settled down. A large amount of food was consumed every day. So if the Emperor did not send people to send food over, they were afraid that they would not be able to hold on until the other side attacked.

The two of them continued to look into the distance. At this moment, Pang Xin suddenly saw something. His face turned serious and he asked, “Is there someone coming from that side?”

Zhang Yuanwu took a closer look. It was true. At the junction of heaven and earth, there was a group of black dots moving towards here. They were about 40 kilometers away.

His expression was heavy. “Could it be that the people from Qing Kingdom are really here?”

The two of them looked at each other and saw the seriousness in each other’s eyes. “Quickly order people to get ready and guard the city gate!’

The soldiers of Huan City were all waiting in formation. Zhang Yuanwu and Pang Xin stood in the city gate tower and did not sleep all night, watching the progress of the team in the distance.

The marching speed of the Qing Kingdom was very fast. In less than six hours after they were discovered, they were only 20 kilometers away from Huan City…
