"Ah!" Wu De let out a blood-curdling scream. After that, he laughed sinisterly. "So satisfying! Bastard, I'm not afraid. Kill me if you dare! "
"Kill you? That's too easy for you! For a person like you, only by being tortured to death can you vent your hatred! " As Meng Zheng spoke, he waved his wolf whip and whipped Wu De dozens of times. Wu De's body was covered in wounds and his flesh was lacerated.
When Liu Ruyan and the others recalled the evil deeds of the Tian Sheng soldiers against the Chu soldiers, they also waved their whips and whipped the other Tian Sheng soldiers. With hatred for the Tian Sheng soldiers, they whipped them with fury in their eyes.
The sound of whipping and the screams of the enemy soldiers could be heard from the scene.
When the Chu soldiers saw this, they all ran over to watch. Seeing the Tian Sheng soldiers beaten to such a state, they felt very satisfied!
However, these Tian Sheng soldiers were still brave. No matter how they were beaten, they did not beg for mercy. Instead, they were very stubborn.
Once Wu De was captured, the Tian Sheng soldiers no longer dared to harass them. That night, everyone finally had a good night's sleep.
Meng Zheng sent people to guard Wu De and the others. Whenever Wu De wanted to sleep, the soldiers would immediately splash water on him, making it impossible for him to sleep.
There were also soldiers who took off Wu De's shoes and socks and scratched his soles with feathers, causing him to laugh loudly. His body was in so much pain that he screamed and laughed at times. It was indescribable how terrifying it was.
The Chu soldiers also thought of all sorts of ways to torture them. In just one night, Wu De and the others were tortured until they were neither human nor ghost. They were better off dead than alive.

For the next few days, Chu Xuanchen did not attack the city again.
He was doing two things. First, he sent people to kidnap Feng Lingtian's provisions. Second, he sent people to cut off Yanzhou City's water source!
As the saying goes, "Before the troops and horses move, the provisions move first." Food was the foundation of war. Feng Ling Tian now had close to eighty thousand men under his command and needed a lot of rations. So every half a month, he would send a batch of rations from Tian Sheng Nation to Swallow State City. Once there was a shortage of rations, the military camp would go into a famine.
Chu Xuanchen found out about Feng Lingtian's grain transport route through his scouts. That route was very well hidden and heavily guarded. Therefore, he sent Chen Ping to lead twenty thousand men to take a shortcut to steal the heavy supplies.
Most of the water in Yanzhou City came from the Yan River outside the city. Chu Xuanchen sent people to cut off this water source. They diverted the water to other places so that Feng Lingtian had no water to drink.
Feng Lingtian had traveled a long way to Swallow State to fight, and the battle line was stretched too far, so the food supply was a big problem. As long as they cut off his supply route, once he ran out of food and water, they would be able to drag him down.
At the same time, Chu Xuanchen also knew that with Feng Lingtian's character, he would definitely come for revenge after he stole Feng Lingtian's provisions.
Therefore, he had made preparations in advance and was waiting for the enemy to fall into his trap.

Yanzhou City, Provincial Governor Mansion
"Crown Prince, it's not good. Our provisions have been stolen!" Just as Feng Ling Tian was worried about Wu De's capture, a soldier's panicked voice came from outside.
Hearing this voice, Feng Lingtian and the generals were shocked.
"What's going on? I clearly sent a large number of soldiers to guard the place and our supply route is very well hidden. Why would our provisions be stolen? Was it stolen by the Chu army? How much were stolen? "The moment the soldier walked in, Feng Lingtian asked angrily.
The soldier hurriedly said, "Crown prince, it was the Chu army that robbed us. We don't know how the Chu army found out about our grain transportation route. Their Shen Wei General Chen Ping led twenty thousand men and robbed all of our grain, not leaving a single grain behind! Our soldiers transporting the provisions were also killed by them! "
