"Sir, do you want food?" At this time, apart from the money basket, Cheng Wu and other generals also arrived. After all, they couldn't start the meal on time. Everyone knew something was wrong.
"It doesn't help -" After Yang Shanlu said the result of the negotiation, the generals were very angry!
Including Zuo Maodi, who also came to the expedition this time. After hearing this, he said angrily: "It's really unreasonable! Now that we are about to face the Central Plains war, it is just when we need to work together, can we still do this kind of thing? Let us I'm going to argue with him!"
Unexpectedly, this excited Zuo Maodi was stopped by Yang Shanlu: "To argue with him about this kind of thing, it's just ridicule, let's not do this kind of thing."
But at this time, an officer of the Tianxiong Army came from outside the camp and remanded more than a dozen carts of grain and rice. He said that he was ordered by the governor to help them with a hundred shi grain and rice, which was regarded as a little bit of the governor’s old man’s heart. .
Yang Shanlu was very grateful when he heard it, and said, "Thank you, the minister, for his care! But it is not easy for him, so I will solve this problem myself!"
Because Yang Shanlu knows very well that although Lu Xiangsheng is the military prime minister of the five provinces, he is in charge of the entire Central Plains camp, but the distribution of food and payment is not under his control.
That is to say, the grain and rice that his Tianxiong army can receive is the same as that of other battle barracks, at most it is less mixed with sand.
So now that they have squeezed out so much grain and rice to help them, they will all be affected, so this sentiment Yang Shanlu took it, and the grain and rice returned.
After sending the quartermaster away, everyone was staring at Yang Shanlu, waiting for him to make up his mind, even among them, a big-bellied man like Hai Rigu had already groaned his stomach.
"Hey!" Hai Rigu touched his head and smiled embarrassedly.
As for Yang Shanlu, he also laughed, and he, who knows how many families he has brought, is still calm and comfortable... Without Zhang Butcher, shall we eat pigs? Pooh!
"Wu Hanjin, eat the food we bring ourselves." Yang Shanlu said to Qian Lazi.
"Yes—" Qian Lanzi nodded quickly. After all, as the logistics supervisor in the army, he knows exactly how much grain and rice he brought out this time... Humph, I want to get our necks stuck, let's dream!
So the next moment, Qian Wanzi immediately dispatched his quartermaster to take out the grain and rice they brought from the barracks, and even with Yang Shanlu's rich family background, how could this be enough? Including the air-dried pork and chicken, there is no shortage of everything...
So in this way, after the Xuan Jia army began to bury the pot and cook, it would be called a fragrant! Even this strong smell of meat floated to other military camps!
"Hey, what's this smell?" The barracks under Liu Liangzuo were next to the Xuanjia Army.
Originally, many of these soldiers knew that the Xuanjia Army did not receive the grain and was gloating and preparing to watch the jokes of this guard army, but what about now
Then when the Xuan Jia army was ready, and when they started to eat, there were already many soldiers who came to see what was going on, but after seeing it clearly, it was all jealous eyeballs that were about to fall into the bowl...
I saw that the guards of the Xuanjia Army all ate the same rice, not even that, everyone could still eat two thick slices of pork. As for the broth, that’s even more. It's full!
Even they can eat two large bowls of rice, one bowl...and the other bowl.
"Damn, is there any reason for this!" The eyes of the soldiers under Liu Liangzuo were red! I even want to replace it!
You must know that although they are soldiers, they can't eat all millet rice. At least one-third of the miscellaneous grains must be mixed in, and then a few grains of salt will be added. That is a meal. , If you give some pickles, it will be rich. (With Liu Liangzuo's virtues, it is normal to deduct food rates.)
As for shredded pork, they are all treatments that can only be enjoyed by military officers, but what about now
And seeing the fire breathing in the jealous eyes of these soldiers, and the money basket who was also eating, he said with a sneer: "Hehe, now I'm dumbfounded... I'm so jealous of you!"
Even he deliberately threw a large piece of fat in the bowl into the air, then bit it with a bite, and then he took a bite, and the soldiers' Adams apples outside moved with it...
As for why the Xuan Jia army eats so well, this is also very obvious... If there is more than enough supplies, who can compare to the rich and powerful Yang Shanlu
With Yang Shanlu, a big benefactor, not to mention people, the horses in the cavalry battalion, in addition to giving enough concentrate every day, there is an extra raw egg every day to supplement nutrition. This shows that the Xuanjia Army’s The food standard is high!
"Big brother, let's change the food—try our craft too!" Many of the soldiers couldn't help it, so they tried to come over and take a bite.
"Don't change—" But how could their clumsy tactics succeed? When I didn't receive the food just now, these guys were all watching jokes! Therefore, when a few soldiers in Liu Liangzuo's army tried to exchange dinner with the Xuan Jia army, they were all rejected mercilessly.
"Donkey ball! Too much bullying!" At this time, it can be seen that the military discipline of Liu Liangzuo's army has deteriorated. His 5,000 soldiers are usually half-soldiers and half-bandits, and there are a lot of veterans and soldiers. !
So now I saw that there was still such a thing, so after a few thousand households in the army met, they were ready to grab it directly!
Anyway, they all thought it over. Even if this matter was caused by the Lord Superintendent, it would be nothing more than a stuttering to say that Po Tian was nothing but a big deal!
Moreover, they often worked well, just like when they entered the King Qin King a few years ago, they were able to bully the visitors from Sichuan and other places.
Only this time, they were misguided. When they sent a dozen sturdy cavalry to ride on the horses and pounce on the big iron pots full of fragrant pork, they were frustrated.
Yang Shanlu had a clear understanding of Liu Liangzuo's men a long time ago, so how could he be unprepared
Not to mention that the camp he set up was very strict, Muzha was densely packed, really thought it was the same as the tofu camp they set up? Can go in and out at will
So immediately there were a few horse slings, which quietly rose up, and when the dozen or so cavalry slammed into it, they were all hit!
Although the big iron pots with fragrant pork are only a few steps away from them, they can only be seen but not eaten! In other words, all they can eat is just a dog biting mud...
"Haha!" Many Xuanjia soldiers laughed when they saw it, and wanted to grab what I was eating. Such a person hasn't been born yet!
"Damn, you dare to shame us?" And those thousands of households who are waiting for good news hiding in their own barracks, all of them are angry...
As soldiers, they thought they were superior, but what about now? The uncle gave you a face and took a bite of your food. How dare these little soldiers who planted the land dare to resist
But these thousands of households really don’t dare to do it by themselves... Seeing the other side’s posture, I have to be beaten in the past...
But it’s okay. If something goes wrong, find the boss... And the opposite is just a mere garrison officer. Their boss is the general soldier, the garrison, the guerrilla, the participating general, the deputy general, and then the general soldier! It's several levels short, can't you clean him up
So after these people found Liu Liangzuo, after a bit of vigour, Liu Liangzuo was really furious... It's up to the owner to beat the dog! But now, a soldier in a guard station dared to ride on his neck and urinate
So he immediately fired up the 200 guards and headed straight for the Xuanjia Army barracks aggressively!
Only when he got close to the big camp of the Xuan Jia army, Liu Liangzuo suddenly hesitated... He just looked at the camp where the Xuan Jia army had planted, and after looking at the banners inside, he suddenly stomped bitterly. Said: "Let's go!"
"My lord, why are you leaving?" Those thousands of households were still very unconvinced. Unexpectedly, Liu Liangzuo raised his hand and rewarded each with a big mouth!
No way, he is not afraid of Yang Shanlu, but just by looking at the momentum of this big camp, he knows that his opponent is not easy to provoke! And when Yang Shanlu arrived, he said that he was leading thousands of people to help, but he still sneered at it... Isn't it necessary to make false statements about the number of troops at this meeting
But now when I look at so many flags in the camp, I realize that there may be tens of thousands of people! Then think about it, he only has 5,000 people... So in the end, he can only swallow this breath alive...
Of course, with Liu Liangzuo's temperament, that would never give up... Hehe, you son of a tortoise, wait and see!
As for Yang Shanlu, he actually saw it in the Yuanmen, and was also prepared, so after seeing Liu Liangzuo retracted, he still felt a bit regretful... But he believed that with Liu Liangzuo’s virtue, he was afraid that there would not be any in the future. Chance
Of course, the effect of having an uproar like this is also quite good. The army is like this. Everyone speaks based on their strength. So after the uproar, the other nearby armies also know about it. The new group of farmers who come Bing, it's not easy to bully...
After such a safe night of rest, after the next day, the whole army was immediately launched... After all, it is now considered a military emergency!
Then when they started pulling out, the Xuanjia Army was given another glorious task—that is, as the front army of the entire army and pioneering the way.
Generally speaking, as a former army, the danger will be greater, and it will be more troublesome. You will open up roads in the mountains and fill up bridges when you encounter water.
But Yang Shanlu didn't care. He was fighting for the country, and he was afraid of this little trouble? Therefore, he did his part to start the front army, clearing the way for the other troops.
Only after he started marching, it showed the elite of the Xuan Jia army. The Xuan Jia army formed a line of 6 people and moved forward in a long snake formation!
But even when they are marching, they maintain a neat formation, which makes people know that they are an elite division at a glance!
The last time Lu Xiangsheng saw this scene, he praised it: "It really is a good soldier brought out by Zhenguo!"
Just take a look at the other soldiers... For example, his Central Military Supervisory Standard Battalion is better. The Tianxiong Army that he brought out with his own hands is also in a good formation, including Yang Guozhu's normal military camp, which is also okay.
But looking at the other armies, it’s like that of Liu Liangzuo. The formation is almost like twisting Yangko. It’s terrible... Including the speed of marching, it’s totally incomparable with Yang Shanlu’s Xuanjia army, like Yang La Procrastinated all the way like shit.
Of course, according to those soldiers, people eat big fish and big meat, and they eat pickles. Is this comparable? In fact, Yang Shanlu knows that there is another important influencing factor, and that is the problem of wearing.
Don't think it is early spring, but because it is the Little Ice Age, the weather is still very cold.
Armies like Liu Liangzuo are all wearing bloated cotton-padded clothes. Naturally, it is not convenient to move. On the other hand, the Xuanjia army... A woolen garment produced by the guards is light and warm, which is natural and efficient. increased.
It's just that this is the welfare of the Xuanjia army, and the other army can only stare at it.
After nearly half a month of marching, the army arrived in Jiyang, Shandong, and successfully rendezvoused with Zuo Liangyu who was waiting here.
"Supervisor, Huguang General Soldier Zuo Liangyu is here to see you—" After the two armies reunited, with the passing of guards outside the temporary gate, I saw a general outside the gate with great enthusiasm.
It was also the first time that Yang Shanlu saw this'celebrity', so he looked carefully, and saw that this man was thick in figure, in his early forties, and dressed in a luxurious raccoon skin cloak, which looked very grand.
It's just that the look in this person's eyes is very vicious, and it's the look that a wolf looks at an eagle! It was filled with unspeakable hostility!
After reading it, Yang Shanlu nodded secretly, and it was not bad as described in history... The thief general is here!
Because to Yang Shanlu, who is familiar with history, he knows exactly who this is! Zuo Liangyu was also a famous general at the end of the Ming Dynasty, of course he only promoted notoriety!
At this time, Zuo Liangyu was already a titled general, his name was General Ping Thief, but his ability to harm the people was worse than the thieves, so the people kindly referred to him as the Thieve General! It can be seen what it is!
Not to mention that Zuo Liangyu, who had already been dubbed Hou Ye by Nan Ming after the Manchu Dynasty entered the Central Plains in the future, brazenly launched a rebellion, leading to the collapse of the Ming Army's Jianghuai line of defense!
Even after he later died of illness, his son Zuo Menggeng led his army of 100,000 men to surrender to Manchu Qing under his instruction! It can be seen what it is!
"Meet the governor! See the governor!"
After the two sides met, it was obvious that Lu Xiangsheng had a bad impression of him, so he was just acting like a business man... Honestly speaking, he didn't value his 10,000 soldiers, and he wouldn't even have this attitude!
It was the supervising army officer who saw Zuo Liangyu's arrival but was very satisfied: "Haha, General Liu came very well!"
People like him don't know how to fight, and don't know how good the army is. They only know that the larger the number, the better.
But Yang Shanlu sneered when they saw him. First, a traitorous general came, and now another thief general came. It really complemented each other...
Just like this kind of stuff, you don't come to mess with me, if you come to mess with me, I will let you know why Lord Ma has three eyes!
After the two armies merged like this, because according to the Tang Newspaper, Zhang Xianzhong's Ministry (directed from Anqing) was already close to Anqing! So that afternoon, it started to march immediately.
Only after walking like this for two days, Zuo Liangyu hadn't made any moths yet, but the supervising army officer did not stop... because he had a'very good' idea. (End of this chapter)
