"Then..." As soon as these words came out, Lao Guan didn't know how to respond. If he didn't show it to them now, it would be equivalent to admitting that he had no food and grass. But if he didn't show it to them, they would really have no food. What should he do, Lao Guan? At a loss.
Seeing Lao Guan's hesitation, the soldiers who came at that time couldn't help but whisper, "Is it true that there is no food and grass? Otherwise, why wouldn't Uncle Lao Guan let him in to see it?"
"If they really run out of food, what will they do tomorrow?"
Seeing everyone talking, Lao Guan couldn't help but feel anxious. Why didn't Lao Ji invite the general over
At that moment, a voice came from behind the soldier, "What are you all gathering here for?"
This voice was definitely that of General Li. After hearing this, Lao Guan couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, when the soldiers heard General Li's voice, they turned their heads and shouted, "General Li."
General Li nodded at that time, and then walked towards Laoguan, and the soldiers gave way one after another.
When he walked forward, Lao Guan bowed his legs to General Li and said, "General Li, you are here."
"Why is it so loud over there? Why is it so noisy?" General Li glanced at the soldiers and then asked Laoguan pretending not to know.
Lao Guan frowned slightly at that time, and then said, "General, did you come here to suspect that they have no military rations, so that's why..."
"That's why we came here to question and disturb the morale of the army. Do we all know that we are guilty?" General Li heard this, then turned to look at the soldiers surrounding the kitchen and shouted loudly.
After hearing this, the soldiers looked at each other and then knelt down.
Seeing this, General Li said loudly at this time, "Did we hear that his army has no food and grass? As a soldier, at this juncture, I don't think about how to resist the enemy, so I am acting like this. How dignified are you? Everyone here is going to lead the army with twenty sticks."
After this order, the people kneeling in the east couldn't help but feel nervous, and then looked at each other.
At that time, someone raised his head and said to General Li, "General, they heard yesterday that they heard Uncle Guan and Uncle Ji say something wrong at the kitchen door. In those few months, the Chinese food was supposed to be rice, but it was replaced by rice." The porridge and wild vegetables are what makes everyone suspicious, so come here and ask if you want to know if their military camp is really out of food and grass."
"It's ridiculous to question it based on just a few gossips. If you are so trustworthy, if the enemy sent spies to deliberately disturb the morale of the army, we won't even think about it." General Li frowned slightly after hearing this. Xiang Laoguan and Lao Ji.
The two of them looked at each other with confusion on their faces.
When the army was running out of rations, General Li mistakenly told them that the matter should not be leaked. Not to mention the two of them discussing it, even when the two went to wash rice and cook, there was one person standing guard at a distance, fearing that someone would suddenly come in and How could anyone hear the two of them talking? There must be something fishy about this matter. Then the two of them were wrong. General Li shook his head.
Seeing this, General Li couldn't help but frown. Could it be that there were really people from Xiling sneaking into the military camp? If he said this, his military morale would be thrown into chaos. They would take advantage of this to seize the east frontier, and get twice the result with half the effort.
Thinking of it, things have reached that point, otherwise we must not let everyone know that the military camp is out of food and grass.
Now if they heard some words, they came together to ask if they let those soldiers know that there was no army rations, and when Xiling came to attack, the soldiers would definitely lose their momentum.
It was just as King Xiling wanted.
Now Ruming can put this matter to the east and try his best to drag it back to Xiao Mu to find food.
Thinking like that, General Li's face became serious.
I heard someone say again, "General Li, they don't want to disobey my order. They all want to know if there is any food and grass. If there is, the general will let a few people go in and take a look. That will dispel everyone's concerns." What’s wrong with your doubts!”
"Every army has clear laws and regulations. Our duty is to march and fight. We take care of those ports." General Li stared at this man and said.
"Sir, these people left their homes and came to the frontier to defend their country. They know their responsibilities. Since they dare to come, do the brothers hang their heads on their belts every month? Do they want to know whether they can fill their stomachs in the future? , please ask the general to let them go to see the east." At that time, the man showed off his legs and kowtowed to him.
General Li couldn't help but frowning at this moment, and then said loudly, "Since we don't obey orders, well, add ten more army sticks!"
"General, general, do they want to know if there is any rations? They have no intention of disobeying the general's order. Please let them go and have a look." As he said that, the man kowtowed.
The soldiers behind him all said the same thing.
At this time, General Li couldn't help but became furious, and then shouted at General Guo beside him, "What are you waiting for? Let's go to Ladong for execution!"
"General, then..." Guo Shenjiang hesitated slightly at this time.
He felt it was inappropriate to punish him with thirty military sticks for this reason.
General Li glanced at him at that time.
Guo Shenjiang nodded at that time, and then said to the wrong person, "Didn't you hear? Drag everyone eastward!"
"No." A group of people responded with their legs crossed.
As he was pulling the person out, another voice came from behind, "Did you know he would come back in the bright moon? So many people will greet him?"
Everyone looked around and saw Xiao Mu standing behind him, with seven carriages parked behind him.
Then Xiao Mu walked forward, pointed at those people with a smile, and said, "We are confused about what to do. Quickly unload the things in the carriage and move them into the kitchen."
At that time, General Guo Shen signaled his leg to let go of the soldiers. The soldiers looked at each other and didn't know what was going on.
"What are you doing standing still? Move quickly!" Seeing that no one was moving, Xiao Mu said again.
After hearing this, the soldier walked to the carriage and untied the rope from the carriage. Then several people moved the bags from the carriage to the east.
From the touch of the legs, they felt that there was something lumpy, which looked like rice.
At this time, more and more soldiers were gathering around. Xiao Mu then walked to the Zhuxuan rice carriage and pretended to help people move the rice from the carriage to the east. Then he put his legs on the mouth of the bag, opened the bag, and then decorated it. Accidentally, I dropped the bag from my leg, and then I let out an "ouch".
The bag of Zhuixuan rice fell to the ground, and some rice fell out.
At that time, Xiao Mu hurriedly came to the east and said, "Oh, is that really a joke? Why did it fall to the ground?"
I saw Lao Guan running forward quickly.
"Master Xiao, it doesn't matter, let him take care of it." Then Lao Guan said to Xiao Mu with a smile.
Xiao Mu nodded at that time, and then said, "That will be troublesome."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter." Lao Guan put the scattered rice into the bag.
Then Xiao Mu patted his legs and stood up.
I saw that the people around him could not help but breathe a sigh of relief after seeing the rice scattered in the east.
As soon as he returned to the military camp, he saw a large group of people gathered there. When he asked if there was a reason, he quickly asked someone to pull a carriage directly to the kitchen.
He dropped the rice on the ground just now, but he didn't mean it on purpose.
Now that there is such a commotion in the kitchen, it is estimated that the entire military camp wants to know about this matter. If not, the people in the entire military camp will be in panic every day, how can they challenge the Xiling army.
That's why he deliberately let the rice bag fall to the ground. This not only made the soldiers feel that the matter was a farce, but also made it known that the military camp was short of food.
Let the soldiers have an idea in mind so that they will not fall into the trap easily in the future.
After a while, the rice and potatoes in the carriage were moved into the kitchen.
Immediately, the onlookers dispersed one after another.
The soldier who was kneeling in front and keeping silent just now walked to General Li and knelt down. "General, as a soldier, if you listen to rumors and question the general, I hope the general will punish you."
"May the general punish you!" the people behind also said.
General Li breathed a sigh of relief at that time. To be honest, if Xiao Mu had not appeared in time, he really didn't know how to end it.
Fortunately, Bu Nao now had a false alarm.
Then General Lee pretended to be angry and said, "We believed the rumors and without clarifying the facts, we brought people to make trouble and shake the morale of the army. Do we know the seriousness of this matter? If those who spread the rumors could have sneaked in with the enemy troops, we would do that." They went east just as they wanted. At this time, the enemy is attacking the frontier fortress. Do we think the frontier fortress can be defended?"
"Please punish me, General!" Then the people kneeling to the east said together.
Xiao Mu walked up to General Li at that time, glanced at the man kneeling to the east, then crossed his legs and said to General Li, "General Li, he also heard about this just now. Although they are not good at this, but among them There should be no thieves provoking the matter. Fortunately, the matter has not worsened, so I will be dealt with lightly. This will not only show the general's generosity, but also maintain the rules in the military camp."
"Since Mr. Xiao has said that, let's go to Ladong and punish Shidong so that he can remember it for a long time!" General Li looked at the kneeling man and said loudly.
As soon as General Li finished speaking, Xiao Mu hurriedly said, "What are you doing standing still? I'm so sorry. Thank you so much, General. I want to know about our behavior of making baked dumplings. To be more serious, can you ask for a marching order directly..."
As he said that, Xiao Mu made a knee-wiping gesture to those people!
After hearing this, the man kneeling to the east felt tight in his heart. Knowing that he was in the wrong, he quickly said, "Thank you, general. Thank you, general."
At that time, Guo Shenjiang walked up to the man who had crossed his legs and said, "It's very embarrassing."
"No." With that said, several people pulled them up again and walked aside.
After everyone left, General Li looked around and then said to Xiao Mu, "There is no place to shut up outside, just let him come."
"Yes, general, please." Xiao Mu nodded, then stretched out his right leg in a gesture of invitation.
Then General Li walked forward.
Xiao Mu then turned around and crossed his legs and said, "After everyone is done, go back and rest."
As he spoke, he followed General Li.
General Lee's tent.
After General Li came in, he filled the cup in front of the table with tea, then looked at Xiao Mu with a smile and said, "What are you standing for? Let's go."
"No, General." Xiao Mu was not polite, because he knew that the generals were all straightforward people and would not take those etiquettes seriously.
Immediately, Xiao Mu walked to the east, picked up the tea poured by General Li and drank it in one breath.
