Chapter 53 A homely meal made the army confused

However, Liang Shi didn't bother with who Liu Renliang was, anyway, he was just a lobbyist. Liang Shidu stretched out his hand and said, "Is this General Chen's gift to me?" ”

Liang Shidu did not think that there were few things in the three baskets, although he was the emperor of the "Liang State", he had been paying close attention to the movements of Guanzhong. In fact, in the past few years, a new thing has emerged in Guanzhong, called money.

In fact, it is a money ticket. Any branch placed in the Datang Tongli Bank can cash coins of the same denomination at any time.

With the advent of money, it is very convenient for people to give gifts.

Wrapped around his waist for 100,000 yuan, he rode a crane down to Yangzhou.

The key copper coin is too heavy, and the consistent money is both 1,000 wen and weighs 7 catties. 100,000 guan weighs about 700,000 catties, which is equivalent to 350 tons. If you use the ten-wheeled trucks of later generations, you need a full ten without overloading, if you use ordinary horse-drawn carriages, you need as many as four or five hundred, and if you use four-wheeled carriages, you need as many as more than a hundred.

But the money is different, even if it is a ten yuan banknote, three bamboo baskets can hold hundreds of thousands of yuan.

Liu Renliang nodded slightly and said, "It is the meeting gift that General Chen prepared for Lord Liang and everyone. ”

Liu Sheng sneered: "It's too stingy to appease us but only give such a small meeting gift, what about sending Huazi?" ”

"yes, you're too much of a bully!" Jihu Master Liu Nuwei immediately echoed.

Jihu, also known as Buluoji, originated from the Southern Xiongnu. After the destruction of the Xiongnu, the name of the Xiongnu was abolished and the tribal name was displayed to the public. Together with Tiefu and Tiele, they belong to the descendants of the Xiongnu.

Liu Renliang smiled lightly, casually lifted the white cloth on a basket, and suddenly, a basket full of steaming buns appeared in front of everyone.

The white bread was wrapped in a basket of cotton, and covered with a quilt, and although the cold wind was howling, it still maintained its temperature.

When the surrounding ministers of the Liang State saw the big meat buns, they immediately sniffed violently, and saliva was secreted wildly, and it flowed out of the corners of their mouths very uncontrollably.

Liu Renliang quietly observed the reactions of the military officials under Liang Shidu with the peripheral vision of his eyes, and sure enough, as Chen Ying expected, Liang Shidu was really short of food. When these civil and military officials saw the big meat buns, they seemed to be old bachelors who had been in prison for 30 years and were suddenly released after completing their sentences, and they saw the reaction of the best beauties.

The eyes are almost straight.

Liu Renliang said with a smile: "This is a good big meat bun, with thin skin and meaty feet, and when you take a bite, your mouth is full of oil." General Chen knew that you had never eaten a big meat bun, so he specially ordered you to bring some food for your stomach......"

Without waiting for Liu Renliang to finish speaking, Liang Shi rushed out without any image, grabbed a bun, and stuffed it into his mouth.

As Liu Renliang said, the one-pound big meat bun has eight taels of meat, and there are no vegetables in the meat filling except for green onions. Moreover, the pork under Chen Ying's command is all castrated pigs, not only does it not smell, but it has more oil and less meat.

Liang Shidu took a bite of the big meat filling, which melted in his mouth, making his taste buds happy.

Seeing that Liang Shi made a move, the other martial artists were not willing to show weakness. In particular, Liu Nuyin grabbed two buns with one hand, pinched them hard, and shoved them into her mouth with a bow left and right.

Liu Sheng was not far behind, his hands and feet were fast, and as soon as everyone saw a flower, they saw that most of the buns disappeared into his throat, and he not only ate them violently, but also put them in his pocket.

This move can cause public anger, idiots know that the buns in the bamboo basket are limited, you old man is thinking like this, you can't take our share too?

Liang Shidu really hates iron and steel, a group of short-sighted guys, a basket of buns will buy you, it can be a big thing to hell!

But thinking like this, he still walked over very unhappily, kicked Liu Nuwei, snatched two buns from his hand and stuffed them into his mouth...... After eating the warm and soft buns in his mouth, he felt that he was still a person.

This group of bigwigs fought fiercely, and in a blink of an eye, they divided up this big basket of buns, and the surrounding guards could only swallow their saliva on the side, no way, even if they were given a jar of guts, they didn't dare to go over to grab buns and eat with these bigwigs!

They can only secretly pray that these big men don't eat too cleanly, and leave them some scum to satisfy their hunger.

Liang Shidu was burping while pointing to the other two baskets and said, "What is this, is it also a bun?" ”

"Naturally not!" Liu Renliang smiled softly: "Let's go in and talk!" ”

Entering the enemy building of Tongwan City, a large table table, Liu Renliang opened the other two bamboo baskets. One of them has a pot of steamed rice and a pot of millet porridge. In the other basket, there are four dishes, including stewed pork with kelp, pork stewed with bean sprouts, lamb stewed with carrots, and stir-fried loose seeds with mung bean sprouts.

Now it is not as good as the future generations, and there are no preservation methods for the future generations, and it is very difficult to eat fresh fruits and vegetables in winter. The soldiers of the Tang Army could only supply soybean sprouts and kelp during the winter march. Kelp can be supplemented, while soybean sprouts can be rich in vitamins. As for carrots, carotene can also be supplemented.

Liang Shidu looked at the contents of the three bamboo baskets, and smiled dumbly, he thought that Chen Ying would buy him with money, but he never thought that it was actually the most ordinary meal.

However, Liu Nuyin didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, and a few big buns were not a big deal for him, a big-bellied man. He picked up his chopsticks and took a big bite of the kelp stew while pulling the rice.

Liang Shidu looked at Liu Nuyin and was a little dissatisfied, after all, he, the emperor, did not speak, and Liu Nuyin ate away.

Liu Nuyin was not stupid, he saw Liang Shidu's dissatisfaction, and while eating, he muttered: "Your Majesty, you are a full man and you don't know how hungry a hungry man ......is hungry."

When other civil and military officials saw this scene, they also rushed up to grab food without any image. The image is like the reincarnation of a starving ghost.

The sound is simply not good for the ears.

Liang Shidu watched all the civil and military officers snatch food like vicious dogs, and he was a little hungry unconsciously.

This bamboo basket looks like a lot of food, but it's really not much. It was quickly snatched up.

Liu Renliang watched the dishes being licked by a dog, and said with a chuckle: "Lord Liang, everyone, are you still satisfied with this meal?" ”

Liang Shidu nodded and said, "Acceptable!" ”

Liu Sheng said: "My old Liu has had the most comfortable meal in recent years!" ”

Liu Nuyin nodded again and again, echoing from time to time.

Liu Ren track: "The meal you have just eaten is just the most ordinary war meal for our Tang Army soldiers, of course, it is just inconvenient to carry, our Tang Army soldiers, buns, steamed buns, rice, and small rice are all enough!" ”

Master Liang's eyes widened, and he said in disbelief: "How is it possible!?" ”

Liu Ren track: "I don't mean to deceive the generals, if the generals don't believe it, you can go to the city wall to take a look, our gang leader is making a meal, and it will be eaten soon!" You can see if you are lying. ”

The civil and military officials of the Liang State looked at each other, all of them in disbelief.

The generals who rebelled with Liang Shidu, they were all from poor families, and they couldn't be clearer about what kind of life the poor lived, not to mention that the four dishes were meat and vegetarian, and the kind of nest head mixed with bran and wild vegetables could be mixed thankfully! Such a meal is actually just a war meal for the officers and soldiers of the Tang Army?

Oh my God, that's hard to believe, isn't it?

Liu Renliang walked straight to the door of the enemy tower, stood on the city wall, pointed to the place outside the city, and was lining up to eat the soldiers of the Tang Army and said: "If you don't believe it, just come and have a look......

Liang Shidu said with a smile: "It's just a joke, Yang Guang also used silk to enclose Chang'an City, and Guanzhong was also short of food, this is a well-known secret, is it meaningful to slap a swollen face and become fat?" ”

Liu Renliang said with a smile: "Lord Liang doesn't know, the danger of famine in Guanzhong has long been lifted, in other words, Lord Liang, with the ability of General Chen, he led these 30,000 troops, can you and the generals stop it?" ”

When Liang Shidu heard this, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

It's not that he hasn't fought Chen Ying, if it is a field situation, even if Chen Ying has 10,000 troops, he will run as far as he can.

Liu Renliang said with a smile: "How does Lord Liang think that this Tongwan City compares to Yanmen Pass? ”

Liang Shidu shook his head and said, "Although Tongwan City is strong, it is far inferior to Yanmen Pass!" ”

That's the truth.

Yanmen Pass is not an ordinary gate, in fact, Yanmen Pass is a complete defense system. And Tongwancheng is only the capital of a country, and the military is only a function of Tongwancheng.

Liu Renliang said with a smile: "Presumably Lord Liang has also heard that it only took one day for our General Chen to conquer Yanmen Pass!" ”

Speaking of this, Liu Renliang looked at Liu Nu again and said, "General Liu, how is this Tongwan City compared to Hangu Pass?" ”

Liu Nuyin smiled bitterly: "There is no comparison!" ”

Liu Ren orbit: "It only took one hour for General Chen to conquer Hangu Pass!" ”

Liang Shidu's face became more and more ugly.

Liu Renliang's words are not exaggerated, these are all facts.

Liu Renliang looked at the civil and military officials of the Liang State who had different expressions and said, "Last question, even if General Chen does not attack Tongwan City, relying on the coal or firewood saved in Tongwan City, how many days can the fuel of Tongwan City last?" ”

Liang Shidu had no way to answer at all.

As the weather gets colder, more and more coal and firewood are consumed. The key is because Tongwancheng, both Xiazhou has rich coal resources and is cheap. The people did not have too many reserves, and each household could afford to store three or four hundred catties. It only takes Chen Ying to besiege Tongwan City for a month or more, and Tongwan City will fall into a situation of extreme fuel shortage.

Liang Shidu couldn't help but say: "It's strange for you, it's just to say no to you if you want to do it, why do you say so much?" ”

Liu Nu hidden: "Yes, everyone is a man, give a refreshing sentence, don't go around!" ”

Liu Renliang looked around at everyone and said, "General Chen's intention is to let you surrender unconditionally. ”

As soon as the words came out, the four were shocked, and the few Huo all jumped up and shouted: "What!?"

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, how many of the thirty-six anti-kings and seventy-two roads of dust and smoke really couldn't survive?

In fact, most of the anti-king and rebel experts are dissatisfied with their lack of a way out, and want to rely on the troubled times to mix a rich and noble, if they surrender unconditionally, they can only be a farmer who can even be humiliated at will for the rest of their lives, what else is there to feel?

After tasting the power of life and death, the pleasure of tens of millions of people obeying their orders, how can they be willing to be an ordinary person without any power!

Liu Nuyin was the first to shout: "This is the condition for that birdman to be appeased!?" ”

Liu Sheng also said: "It's too arrogant! Even the emperor would not dare to speak to us in such a tone! It's good that he wants us to surrender unconditionally! It's so damning! ”

Liang Shidu looked directly at Liu Renji: "Liu Renliang, you're not joking, are you?" ”

Liu Renliang shook his head and said, "It's not a joke. General Chen demanded unconditional surrender, and he promised not to kill any of you, and that your children would have books to read, food to eat, and your men to have land to cultivate and work to support their families. ”

Such conditions are indeed very attractive to the people of Liang and the ordinary soldiers of the Liang army, the problem is that these people have already tasted the sweetness of power, after the establishment of the Liang State, they were all named generals by the Liang division, and their ambitions have also swelled to the point of no return, let them surrender unconditionally and accept Chen Ying's placement, where can they do it!

Liu Nuyi snorted and said, "I thought General Chen was a hero, but it turned out to be such a naïve idiot!" Does he think that one meal can buy us and make us surrender obediently? Dream! ”

He stretched out his hand and pointed to Tongwan City, and said sharply: "My Liang people are strong and strong, enough for more than 200,000 people, crisscrossing the northwest, and rarely meet opponents, does he think that his little man can swallow us in one bite!?" Unconditional surrender? Surrender to his mother! ”

Liu Renliang's face changed greatly when he heard this.

Especially when he heard Liu Nuyin insulting Chen Ying, he suddenly pulled out a horizontal knife and stabbed Liu Nuyin without hesitation.

Where did Liu Nu hide think that Liu Renliang dared to make a move in Tongwan City, even if he did, he should first take Liang Shidu.

So this knife was unexpected, and Liu Nuyin was defenseless at all, and she didn't react.

"Poof......

The sharp horizontal knife effortlessly pierced the battle skirt on Liu Nu's waist, pierced through his waist, and instantly pierced his kidneys.

Liu Renliang used force to crush Liu Nuyin's kidneys, Liu Nuyin slowly collapsed to the ground, convulsing, he pointed at Liu Renji: "You ......"

Before he finished speaking, his head tilted to the ground.

The surrounding guards suddenly rushed in, and all the guards took their swords and aimed at Liu Renliang.

Liu Renliang exhaled lightly, and unhurriedly wiped the blood on the horizontal knife with Liu Nu's hidden clothes.

When this horizontal knife was wiped as bright as snow, Liu Renliang slowly got up, looked at everyone and said slowly: "General Chen is a bright and upright person, he disdains to make a bunch of false promises to lure his opponent down, and then carry out a plot!" He really doesn't have much use for you, and with his strength, it is very easy to annihilate your troops, but he doesn't want to see so many women and children affected by the flames of war, and the bones fill the hills and ravines. Everyone, believe in the next sentence, fight him, you have no chance of winning! ”

Liang Shidu looked at Liu Renliang and said coldly: "Okay, you are a Liu Renliang, do you want to follow Fu Jiezi's hand to kill King Loulan?" ”

Liu Renliang spat on Liu Nuyin's corpse and said, "Is he worthy of this idiot who spews feces all over his mouth?" ”

Seeing Liu Renliang's fearless appearance, Liang Shidu said coldly: "You're not afraid that I will kill you!" ”

Liu Ren track: "I'm afraid...... I'm afraid you won't dare! ”

Liang Shidu waved his hand, and the guards slowly pressed up.

At this time, there were hundreds of soldiers of the Liang army who rushed into the enemy tower.

Even if Liu Renliang's skills are good, they are just good, and it is impossible for him to leave Tongwan City alive.

Liu Renliang said with a smile: "You think about it carefully, General Chen will go back at a certain hour, if Liu can't return safely within a certain hour, General Chen will definitely send troops to attack the city, and all of you will die......"

Liu Sheng muttered: "I admit that our current situation is very bad, but it is too much for us to surrender unconditionally, so why don't we give us an official position?" Even if it's an idle job, it's okay! ”

Liang Shidu bowed his hand to Liu Renliang and said: "You go back and tell General Chen that we believe in his ability to settle our 200,000 soldiers, and we also believe that he will not surrender, but we can't accept unconditional surrender!" We have been against the Li Tang court for many years, and the Li Tang court hates us to the core, if we surrender and have no power at all, what is the difference between it and the fish on the board? ”

Liang Shidu accentuated his tone: "General Chen's account is full of talents, but we have experienced a hundred battles, and he has no place to use us!" ”

Liu Renliang groaned: "Do you all mean this? ”

Everyone nodded one after another, saying that it was unacceptable for them to be ordinary people again, and they had to be given official positions big and small, not only for glory and wealth, but also to save their lives.

Liu Ren track: "I can't be the master of this, I have to ask General Chen for advice." ”

Liang Shidu said: "Then there is Lao Liu Gongzi!" ”

All the generals got up one after another to see off Liu Renliang.

After Liu Renliang left, the news that Liu Renliang went to persuade Liang Shidu to surrender set off a huge wave in the Wancheng of Liang Guotong, and the news spread quickly, and the hungry Liang soldiers were all talking about it, discussing the possibility of being appeased.

Liang Shidu soon found that the atmosphere quickly became a little strange, and everyone looked at him with the wrong eyes, and they couldn't tell what was wrong.

How did he know that he had fallen for Chen Ying.

Liang is short of food.

The soldiers can only be full of water.

Liu Renliang entered Tongwan City with food, and the soldiers of the Liang Army standing on the city wall could see it clearly. But these foods, their generals and officials have nothing left.

Do not suffer but suffer unevenly.

In normal times, Liang Shi eats something good, and it is not a big deal to occupy more gold and silver beauties, but now everyone is starving to death, and the selfish behavior of the leaders has undoubtedly aroused everyone's anger.

The rumors became more and more fierce, and many Liang generals said indignantly: "We followed them from birth to death, they are good, they have food to themselves, and they are unwilling to let us share half of it!" The Tang army really fought, I swore not to resist, let these well-fed uncles go and fight! ”

Liang Shidu first found out that something was wrong, but he didn't know how to explain it, they had a big meal, and it was a fact that they didn't give everyone a point, and they couldn't deny it.

He could only smile bitterly, just using a common meal to make their military hearts confused, Chen Ying can be regarded as a talent!

was having a headache about how to suppress this trend, when a report suddenly came from the front: "Your Majesty, it's not good, the Tang army has entered the city......"
