It was the seventh day.
Kou Jigang issued another sheepskin jacket to the soldiers of the Serbian Army, and the soldiers of the Serbian Army were pulled out to face the Liao.
After a few days of silence, Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu launched another attack.
The soldiers of the Serbian Army, accompanied by the soldiers of the Forbidden Army, once again rushed to the battlefield.
Kou Ji calculated the number of sheepskin jackets distributed, frowning and asked Chen Lin, "I only distributed sheepskin jackets for less than 10,000 people, which is nearly 30,000..."
It stands to reason that there are two sides in the first army, and there should be 50,000 people.
There are only 40,000 people in the Serbian army.
Another ten thousand troops were eaten.
The people who eat the ranks are the guards of the Serbian Army and the people behind him.
The people behind him, Kou Ji didn't have time to dig, but the head of the Guardian Army Supervisor, Kou Ji had taken him off and hung him on the flagpole at the gate.
Chen Lin sighed and said: "Someone spread rumors in Zhending Mansion, saying that our two guards were robbing the people’s cattle and sheep without paying any money. The people were scared, so they secretly sold all the cattle and sheep in the family. Up.
Someone took the opportunity to buy these cattle and sheep and drove them out of Zhending Mansion. "
Kou Ji raised his brows and said solemnly: "The people below have embezzled money from buying cattle and sheep?"
Chen Lin shook her head, "The people who came with us are our cronies. They can't do that kind of thing. It's purely because some people think that we killed too hard in Zhending Mansion, so they stumbled behind us child."
Kou Ji closed the ledger and gritted his teeth and said, "Are they tired of living?"
Chen Lin squinted her eyes and whispered: "The old man has sent someone to investigate. The Liu and Cao boys have returned to Bianjing for help. I believe it will not be long before the imperial coats will be shipped to Baozhou."
Kou Ji said coldly: "I found the man behind the scenes, and I will kill him alive."
Kou Ji left the account book and said, "Since there is no way to give the soldiers cotton clothes, then cook all the cattle and sheep that have been killed. When they come off the battlefield, they can also drink a bowl of warm.
Recently they have been wandering around where we piled up meat, so they should be greedy.
They are desperate in the front, and we can't help much. If they go, they have to protect us and add chaos to them.
We might as well take good care of them properly. "
Chen Lin nodded.
Immediately, Kou Ji took someone to make the broth.
A cauldron with dozens of mouthfuls, set it up, boiled the broth together.
The smell of meat can be smelled from miles away.
However, the meat stayed up late at night, and it was stale, and the soldiers were not seen coming down from the battlefield.
While Kou Ji urged people to frequently go to the front line to inquire about news, he asked people to continue to add water to the meat pot and to add firewood to the bottom of the pot.
The people who were sent to inquire about the news on the battlefield did not bring back good news.
In the end, Chen Lin strode across the battlefield in person. After returning, her face was a little gloomy and she didn't speak much, but asked Kou Ji to add more meat and more water to the meat pot.
Although Chen Lin said nothing.
But from the two things he ordered, Kou Ji felt bad.
Kou Ji had the intention to walk on the battlefield, but was afraid that he would cause chaos to the soldiers after he went on the battlefield, so he could only stay in the barracks obediently.
At the time of the third watch.
The noisy battlefield outside Baozhou city disappeared for a while.
Kou Ji originally thought that the soldiers would withdraw to take a drink of hot soup, but after a while, there were shouts of killing on the battlefield.
It's four hours later.
Cao Wei sent someone back to the barracks and asked the army to send the prepared meals to the city walls of Baozhou.
The soldiers of the Forbidden Army have the unique Fire Head Army to take care of their meals, and it is difficult for outsiders to intervene.
So Kou Ji led the civil servants, carrying large earthen jars one after another, and delivered the broth on the city wall to the generals of the Xiang army.
The meat has been simmered for nearly a day and night, and the shape of the meat can be seen when it is placed in the pot, and it is a bit loose when the road bumps.
When it was delivered to the wall, it was stirred with a spoon, and the flesh and blood separated instantly.
Kou Ji took the civil servants and served a bowl to the soldiers who had guarded Baozhou City for a day and night.
The soldiers were very hungry, so they brought the broth to their mouths.
They grinned at the hot soup, but their mouths were unwilling to leave the soup bowl.
"one more bowl… "
Some soldiers mixed with sturdy cooking cakes and swallowed a bowl of soup, raised the empty bowl, and asked the civilians to give them another bowl.
"I'm giving you a spoonful of soup at most. Don't think about the meat. There are still many brothers who haven't eaten it."
Minfu served a spoonful of soup to the soldier and said something cursively.
Kou Ji boiled a lot of broth, but in front of tens of thousands of mouths waiting to be fed, he still couldn't see enough.
Therefore, when dividing the broth, you always have a good sense of measure, and try to let everyone drink a bowl of broth with shredded meat.
Kou Ji explained it when he was carrying meat on the wall.
The folks naturally have to do things according to Kou Ji's instructions.
The soldier took a sip of the hot soup and grinned, but tears fell involuntarily along his smiling face.
"Brother in the back?"
"Hey..."
"There are no brothers behind..."
The man who served the soup shook his hands and almost didn't throw the soup spoon into the jar.
He tremblingly yelled: "The 40,000-member Serbian army has only distributed the broth of less than 10,000 people, and there are more than 20,000 people. Why is it gone?"
Minfu raised his head and looked back, and said in a deep voice, "I see there are still many people behind."
The soldier took the hot soup and drank it.
There was a fire in his throat when the hot soup was hot, and he screamed twice like a dove, let out a sigh of relief, and yelled comfortably.
Then he smiled to the folk husband: "From the moment the Liao people went south, our brothers from the Serb army have been standing on the walls of Baozhou. You are on the road from Bianjing to Baozhou, the Liao people’s military attack is our Against.
Forty thousand to protect the Serbian army
As early as when you came, there were less than 20,000 people left. "
"There are clearly forty thousand people on the roster..."
"That's because our general also gathered more than 20,000 defeated soldiers who retreated from Waqiao Pass..."
"..."
The news inevitably reached Kou Ji's ears.
Kou Ji did not go into the matter.
The generals of the Serbian Army, able to lead the 40,000 soldiers of the Serbian Army who lacked food and clothing, and block the nearly 200,000 tiger-wolf divisions of the Liao people, are already very rare.
After all, one side is the Liao army armed to the teeth, and the other side is the Xiang army that doesn't even have a warm leather jacket.
Kou Ji led the team that divided the broth from one end of the Baozhou city wall to the other.
Originally, he planned to only take care of the Serbian army, but in the end, no matter what the identity of the opponent, it is a member of the army, the battalion, and the battalion. As long as he walks forward with a bowl, he will let someone serve a bowl of hot soup.
It turns out.
Among the soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty, it was not only the Serb soldiers who were raised by stepmothers.
Almost all Xiangjun are raised by stepmothers.
Cao Wei leads 250,000 soldiers in name.
Except for the 50,000 horses of the Japanese army under his command, the remaining 200,000 soldiers belonged to the Xiang army.
Holding the Japanese army is the forbidden army in the forbidden army, the elite of the forbidden army.
One of the four upper armies that led the army in the Song Dynasty millions of forbidden forces.
From armaments to food, there is no shortage of them.
Has the best treatment in the Great Song Army.
But Xiangjun is different.
Lack of food and clothing is a very common thing among them.
Old pawns and half-sized dolls can be seen everywhere in their army.
There are even some women who are in the army for a bite.
When Kou Ji pulled out the female dolls who were in the army, more than a dozen soldiers around them stepped out and knelt down beside Kou Ji.
"Kou Jianjun, the villain and others admit to playing and punishing them, and please don't embarrass them."
There is no extra explanation, no extra arguments, and some just begging.
Kou Ji stared at them, gritted his teeth and said: "You should know in your heart that it is the crime of decapitation to harbor female families in the army."
The soldiers lowered their heads with ashamed expressions, and whispered: "The little people can't help it. The little people leave them in the barracks, either they were abducted and sold, or they were ruined.
The little people had to take them with them. "
Kou Ji said solemnly: "As long as the Xiang army belongs to the army, the court will allocate a place nearby to let them live."
The soldiers laughed sorrowfully and whispered: "The little people are not the original military status of the Xiang army. Most of the little people suffered disasters in the countryside, were classified as military status, and were distributed here.
After they threw the little people into the Xiangjun, they didn't care about the little people's life or death.
That will set aside a place for us so that our family can live with it. "
Kou Ji replied, "Then how do your family live on weekdays?"
The soldiers whispered: "Most of them are based on the rice paid by the court on weekdays. There are also small people who have made credit for fighting on the battlefield and have been rewarded for living."
Kou Ji sighed and asked, "Who are they in your mouth?"
The soldiers kept silent.
Kou Ji grinned, "If you don't tell me, I also know. It's those important ministers who are known as loyal ministers and good generals, dears."
Kou Ji said to herself: "The Song Dynasty has established a country for less than a century, and the military system is so corrupted. Those loyal ministers and good ministers don't know how much time it took to whitewash a world of peace.
It really embarrassed them.
They are doing their best to decorate the peace of the world.
The stars are really shining. "
After Kou Ji said to himself, he said to the soldiers, "Let them all follow me. I will find a place for them to settle down."
When the soldiers heard this, instead of joy, they looked terrified.
They stepped back slightly and guarded the girls.
Kou Ji was taken aback when he saw this and frowned, "What do you mean by this?"
The soldiers bit their heads and said: "The kindness of the supervising army is appreciated by the little people. It's just that the little people feel that it's more appropriate for them to stay with the little people."
Kou Ji looked around them for a while, seeing them look wary, frowned and said: "You can't believe me?"
The brave soldier stared at Kou Ji, gritted his teeth and said: "Please also ask the prison army to forgive the crime, the villain and others really can't believe in the prison army. The last prison army who took the villain and others' family members away from the villain and others did the same. Said.
It's just that he took the villain and others' family members to the army later. "
Kou Ji stared and shouted: "You didn't kill him?"
The soldiers lowered their heads and whispered: "Little people dare not..."
Kou Ji said solemnly: "Why do you dare to disobey my meaning now? Think I'm good to you and bully?"
One by one, the soldiers knelt on the ground silently.
Kou Ji stared at them, and said solemnly: "People, today I must take away, not only these female family members, but also those half-sized dolls. If you see me using them to labor, you will always You can kill me.
Lao Jun, I only use meat and wine, nothing else will appear.
I will not use your female relatives to labor, nor will I use other people's female relatives to reward you.
This is my Kou Ji rule.
Who broke my rules, who I castrated. "
After Kou Ji said this, he stopped paying attention to the soldiers, and snorted coldly to the female relatives: "Follow me!"
Leaving this sentence aside, Kou Ji turned around and left.
After all, those soldiers were still afraid of Kou Ji's majesty.
Let Kou Ji lead these female relatives and half-sized dolls hidden in the army away from the city wall.
Kou Ji went to other army to check, and found a lot of female relatives hidden in the army, as well as half-large dolls.
In the 200,000 Xiang army team, there are more than 10,000 half-sized dolls and thousands of female relatives hidden.
When Chen Lin saw the black group of women and children behind Kou Ji, her chin almost fell to the ground.
Kou Ji looked at Chen Lin in shock, and sneered: "I didn't expect it..."
Chen Lin darkened her face and whispered: "I know some news, but the old man did not expect that there will be so many people."
Kou Ji pointed to the women and children behind him, grinning and said: "This is the wealthy Song Dynasty under the rule of the first emperor. It is really terrifying."
Chen Lin heard Kou Ji's mocking words, and said with a black face: "The first emperor has died and is now buried. The old man is not allowed to chew on the tongue of the first emperor."
Kou Ji said faintly: "If you want me not to chew the emperor's tongue, then you can make up for his fault for the emperor and feed these people."
Chen Lin said with a dark face: "The old man will write to Bianjing City, so that people can escort the grain and grass over quickly."
Kou Ji spit, disdainfully said: "When your people escort the grain and grass, I am afraid these women and children will starve to death."
Chen Lin frowned and said: "Then what do you say?"
Kou Ji said quietly: "Let's take them to the prefect of Zhending Mansion for a day. These people are family members of the various armies under the rule of Zhending Mansion. They are forced to the current field. I'm afraid Regarding the prefect of Zhending Mansion, he has often taken oil and water from them."
Chen Lin stared and shouted: "You are disrupting the officialdom of Zhending Mansion, and Zhending Mansion will fall into chaos because of this. Now it is during the Song and Liao Wars, you can't do this."
Kou Ji stared at Chen Lin and said coldly: "Then you are not afraid that the soldiers who were on the battlefield felt wronged and withdrew from the battlefield, or turned to the Liao people and released the Liao army?"
Chen Lin gritted her teeth and said: "If an old man is staring, they wouldn't do it."
Kou Ji stared at Chen Lin and snorted coldly, "I won't be today, but I cannot guarantee that I won't be tomorrow."
