Chapter 723: Working for Food

"Resume your previous meal?" Xiao Han glanced at the weak-hearted Tie Niu with contempt, and snorted twice: "What Lao Tzu said two days ago still counts?" Are you bragging about it seriously? Big husband a spit and a nail! I'm not going to throw my face on the ground yet! ”

"That's... Then Master Hou, you say a charter, we will look forward to you for you! ”

As soon as he heard that Xiao Han didn't plan to change the food, the fattest lieutenant breathed a sigh of relief first, and jumped out impatiently to make a statement!

If he can be a lieutenant, he is not a fool! Xiao Han is looking for them today, it is definitely not a simple complaint or idle boredom! If this young quartermaster didn't have a plan, then his body of more than 200 catties of fat would be in vain, so it would be better to boil oil!

Hearing Fat Duwei say this, Xiao Han finally smiled and nodded, and his eyes softened a little when he looked at him.

"Well, it's actually very easy to solve!" Xiao Han touched his chin and said, "There is a fixed number of things that a person can eat in a day!" No matter how delicious it is, it is impossible to eat it without moderation! Also, if you eat one more piece of food, you will eat one less ration! If you eat more meat, you can eat two less rations!

So I think that from tomorrow onwards, you will choose some people from your own team, and while the others are busy camping, they will form a team to find some wild food!

It's spring now, there are a lot of things to eat, and the taste is not bad, the key is to take this opportunity to improve the food, condition the body, and when you go to the battlefield in the future, you can also make more meritorious deeds! ”

Xiao Han moved with emotion, and began to draw an exciting picture of military and civilian production for the lieutenants in front of him.

There is no way, if you are not in your position, you can't seek politics! It's not good for him to directly instruct those Qiu Ba, only through these people in front of him can he get enough manpower while adhering to the rules.

And now that these dozen or so lieutenants listened to Xiao Han's words, and then thought about it in their hearts, they all felt that this was not a difficult matter.

In their previous attack, the grain and grass could not keep up, and there was no land to "borrow grain"......

It's not like I haven't done anything to dig wild vegetables to eat myself, and now it doesn't seem to be a big deal except for a little more people!

Seeing that several accomplices around him were nodding, Tie Niu, who had a little more heart, plucked up his courage and finally asked: "Master Hou, I just want to ask, does he know about this matter?" ”

"Him?"

Xiao Han was stunned when he heard this, and then recalled the little plums he had eaten with relish in the past two days, so he nodded very firmly! This guy knows that he will be short of food, and he eats so comfortably, there is no reason not to let himself find more food to fill the vacancy!

"That's it! If you don't contribute to your own food, you deserve to be hungry! ”

Seeing Xiao Han nodding, Tie Niu finally hammered his palm, which can be regarded as the final decision of this matter!

Isn't there just a few people, everyone just takes turns! Find some wild vegetables to eat, tired people don't die, how is this much easier than cutting people, right?

Xiao Han glanced at a few people, and when he saw that they all nodded in agreement, he immediately clapped his hands with a smile and said, "Okay, then this matter will be decided first!" In fact, it will only be seven or eight days old, and when we join up with other armies, we will naturally not have to worry about hunger! ”

"Hahaha...... I hope that at that time, we will eat the same food as we are now! ”

Seeing that the big thing had been decided, the fat lieutenant immediately happily followed along, but soon held a bunch of white eyes.

"Eat, eat, eat, you know to eat, you can kill meat when you're almost fat, and you can't forget to eat!" Someone whispered.

"Who? Says who! There is a kind of stand up, the fat man can't kill him! "The fat captain was angry with the first Buddha ascended to heaven, and the second Buddha was born, if it weren't for the fat body dragging him, it is estimated that he would have jumped into the sky now!

"Who? Who's going to speak? Didn't you hear? ”

"That's it, that's it! Who just spoke? ”

Looking at this group of giggling lieutenants, Xiao Han's heart also relaxed, laughed a few words, and sent them away, but when he passed by Chai Shao's camp, his waist unconsciously straightened a little.

Hurry up and the night passes.

The next day, under Xiao Han's "vigorous admonition", the army resumed the standard marching speed of fifty miles a day.

In this way, by the time the fifty-mile journey is completed, the time will be more than half an hour earlier than yesterday.

Site selection, garrisoning, and the military repeat yesterday's process.

Of course, unlike yesterday, in every house today, there are one hundred and ten men out of the barracks, and they are about to go up the mountain and into the water to fight for the belly of their brothers!

The time of April and May is the time of spring and glory.

On the low hill near the barracks, there are countless locust flowers blooming just right, from a distance, the white sea of flowers is like stars, it is very beautiful, the wind blows, even the air in the camp is filled with a unique sweet fragrance of locust flowers!

However, the beautiful locust flowers on this mountain are very pitiful, because they are close to the barracks, so they are destined not to live until tomorrow morning......

A group of men who came out of the army, wild boars rushed to the mountain, and the acacia flowers of a tree smiled and bloomed.

Other people's acacia flowers are all hooked little by little with a small hook, but this group of men directly pulled out a horizontal knife and cut off the locust tree with the thickness of the bowl in a few clicks! Immediately afterwards, someone urged the war horse and dragged the cut down tree all the way back to the barracks!

The locust tree is a good thing! The trunk of the tree can be used as a camp railing, the branches can be used to make fires, and even more so, the locust flowers!

As long as you take the boiling water and scald it, put it on the top of the pot and burn it, and then come out with the fragrant acacia cake, which is delicious, just think about it makes people drool!

Of course, hundreds of soldiers can't just cut locust flowers when they go up the mountain.

The bitter herbs, white artemisia, wild chrysanthemums, and dandelions on the mountains are in season! These are really nutritious and good things, if they are placed in the future generations, they can't eat if they want to!

Moreover, as the old saying goes, there are clouds, hugging the grass and beating the rabbit, and the two will not be delayed!

When making all kinds of wild vegetables, some game that does not have long eyes is naturally the target of the soldiers.

Datang's natural environment is so good today!

Rabbits, pheasants, pine trees, and even snakes with thin arms, that's not a rarity! In this way, if any soldier goes down the mountain without some game, it will be a joke!

As the initiator of the large-scale production movement, Xiao Han was not on the mountain at this time.

He was now surrounding the Wei River with the No. 100 man, watching Sun Ergou bite a long rope and swim towards the other side of the river.

The Wei River is very large, but it is not deep, and the turbid water flows here even more gently! Otherwise, Yang Guang would not have reopened an artificial canal to connect Chang'an and Tongguan instead, it was not suitable for boating!

"That's it! It's finally here! Swimming hard to the other side of the river, Sun Ergou climbed to the shore with both hands and feet, wiped the river water on his face, and found the thickest willow tree to tie the rope he brought!

When all this was done, he sat on the ground and gasped.

The river water in late spring and early summer is still a little cold, even if he has a good water nature, he has lost a lot of physical strength when he swims over, if it is not for the two days of eating very well, the body is good, I am afraid that I will not be able to swim today.
