387 Murderous intent arose
With Li Xian staring at him, Li Zhong would not make a big mistake, but suddenly let him lead an army alone, and he could also lead part of Li Xian's powers, and the huge sense of accomplishment instantly overwhelmed the original self-control that was not very strong, and it was a bit of a feeling of being the eldest of heaven, the second of the emperor, and the third of his children.
Speaking from the heart, Li Zhong was reluctant to camp in Jisang City, which was too poor, poorer than Xihe Road. After all, it is an old nest over there, and it has been in business for many years, and no matter how remote it is, there is no shortage of necessary food, drink and entertainment.
However, Jisang City was not a city in the hands of the Western Xia army, and it was 100% an army transfer station and barracks. As soon as the war broke out, the herdsmen and residents around them also ran away, and there was no wine shop that could find a reasonable taste, let alone any singers, dancers, or even eye-catching women.
Why did it come to this point? Li Zhong put the blame on the head of the horse king. If he hadn't destroyed Liangzhou City, it would definitely be much more prosperous than Jisang City with its original population size.
There is no need to guess this, and there is no need to ask others, just look at the wreckage of the palace in the inner city of Liangzhou. There is a palace with such regulations, coupled with the status of the accompanying capital, it is impossible to think of prosperity.
But now not only are the glow-in-the-dark cups gone, the exotic kabuki is gone, and even the quality of the daily food and drink cannot be guaranteed, all of which must have been caused by the unscrupulous horse.
However, his father-in-law didn't let himself get too close to Wusheling Mountain, let alone go to trouble the new army in Huangzhou, so this breath was blocked in Li Zhong's stomach and couldn't get out.
God has eyes, and it didn't take long for the opportunity to retaliate to come. A large convoy appeared on the post road, and when the soldiers reported that they were the Water Tiger Wing Forbidden Army from Weiqiao Town, specially transporting supplies to Liangzhou, Li Zhong, who had already drunk and had a little red eyes, sat up from the collapse!
"Stop, the official will personally inspect the goods!"
Lao Tzu eats hard-to-swallow barley cakes here, drinks sour mare's milk wine, and although the corpses in the rivers outside the city are all burned and buried, there is always a strange smell in the air, you have the face to enjoy the supplies from Jingzhao Mansion!
"All down! The grain, grass and armaments from Lanzhou must be deployed by Lord Li, and you will go back and tell your family that you can send the goods to Lanzhou in the future, and you don't have to worry about the rest! ”
When he uncovered the skin, cloth and non-cloth that were covered by several box cars, and there was still a peculiar smell, Li Zhong's saliva was about to flow down. Each cart was filled with crossbow arrows, crossbows, iron balls, and small iron cylinders.
It is no secret that the rockets of the new army in Huangzhou are powerful, and it is with the assistance of this weapon that Yan Yan Lu and Shen Kuo captured the Hengshan area.
In this battle to capture the city of Liangzhou, the new army of Huangzhou showed another new equipment, a powerful crossbow that could be used in rainy days. There is no need to inquire about the power, there are a lot of crossbow arrows on the corpses in the river, just look at the quality of the armor and the depth of the arrows into the flesh to basically figure it out.
It is a pity that the workshops of the imperial court cannot produce these two weapons, and only Jinmingchi and Wujin Xing in Weiqiao Town can make them. Most of Jinmingchi's products were supplied to the Upper Fourth Army in Kaifeng City, and the production of Weiqiao Town and a small part of Jinmingchi were all sent to Huangzhou.
It was not given by the imperial court, but by the horse, and I am afraid it was not given to the horse, it should be Shen Kuo, it is said that this horse has a good personal relationship with Shen Kuo.
Now Li Zhong finally knew why the crossbows of the new army were not afraid of water, and their crossbow arms were actually made of stainless steel, which was coated with butter, so they were naturally not afraid of moisture.
What are those black iron balls Li Zhong also figured out, and the commander of the Water Tiger Wing, who was in charge of the escort convoy, personally lit one, and then the dozens of war horses present were all shocked, and the sound was really loud.
But apart from shocking people, Li Zhong didn't see how useful this thing was called thunderbolts, but the things contained in the thick iron cylinder made him more interested.
"Your adults will enjoy it, have you eaten so many preserved fruits and braised pork?" The iron cylinder was also opened, and it was actually filled with preserved fruits and cooked meat with soup and water, and Li Zhong naturally thought of the luxurious life of the horse.
“…… These are the rations of the new soldiers, and if the adults don't dislike them, the final general will put down a few boxes of everything for the adults to try. There is a fixed amount of these military rations, and next time I will come from Weiqiao Town to bring more for the adults. ”
Wang Guan didn't know who Li Zhong was at this time, and he would be polite wherever he could, which was not difficult for him, after all, his level was much higher than his own.
"What, these are for the soldiers?" Who knew that Li Zhong's face turned blue as soon as he heard this, and he stared at his two eyes as if he was going to eat people.
“…… Yes, it's a bit of a waste, Lord Shuai Si has always been considerate of his subordinates, and no matter how high or low his position is in the army, he uses this as food. ”
At this time, Wang Guan still didn't feel that anything was wrong, and Li Zhong was not the only one who had this kind of question, all the checkpoint guards who passed along the way were salivating over the rations of the new army, and most of them didn't even believe it.
"Hehehe...... We waited here to eat and sleep in the open and fight to the death with the Xixia people, but he shrank in Liangzhou but continued to drink and meat every day, there is such a reason in the world! Come on, detain all these vehicles and confiscate them! ”
With a burst of sneering, Li Zhong couldn't help it, he felt that this was the biggest insult to himself, even more uncomfortable than losing Liangzhou City. The treatment of a dignified lion is not as good as that of a group of van servants, which is unbearable!
At this time, the crown was really dumbfounded, it was the first time he had encountered such a situation. In the past, no matter how the other party didn't understand, envy, jealousy, and hatred, as long as he saw the official document of the Huangzhou Jingluo pacification envoy, he had to let it go. The curses behind their backs are also muttered quietly, no one will be blatantly detained, this is a bit unruly!
But no matter how he explained, Li Zhong didn't plan to go back empty-handed, so he talked to all the acquaintances in the Kaifeng Forbidden Army, and only reluctantly returned thirty carts, most of which were thunderbolts and other goods, and only three carts of canned food.
"In the future, the convoy will still take this road, and the official guarantees that there are very few people who even check the customs clearance diploma, you can go sideways, hehehe......" Hong Tao listened carefully to the crown on the way to tell the whole story.
In fact, it doesn't matter if you listen to it or not, no matter what it is, no matter who it is, as long as you withhold your own supplies, you just want to let yourself die, and you are looking forward to your death, then you are the enemy, and there is really no need to know too much about how the enemy offends you.
"Don't you want to fight with the forbidden army with real swords and real guns? The last general thinks that what Master Miao said is reasonable, and it is enough to scare and scare, and it is not good for adults to make a big fuss. ”
Wang Guan looked at the horse with a heartfelt smile on his face, and his whole body was cold, when he cut down dozens of forbidden army officers in Huangzhou, it was already full of uproar, if he defeated a forbidden army fighting on the front line, the court would not be able to boil. Cannibalism is unreasonable.
"In all the foreign wars of our dynasty, eight or nine times we lost grain and grass, cutting off the grain and grass of friendly troops is to help the enemy, and what the enemy cannot do, our own people have done it. This kind of thing can't be turned into a big thing, otherwise the official will not be able to sleep every day when he goes out on the expedition in the future, and I don't know when the grain road will be cut off by his own people, isn't it unjust to die like this? It doesn't matter what others think, but whoever dares to touch the grain and grass of the new army is the enemy of the new army. This wind can't be long, one will kill the other, even if Li Xian himself is in Jisang City, the official will hang him on a wooden pole, there is no room for negotiation. Besides, he has harmed the official more than once, if the people of Huangzhou didn't happen to save him, you should go to the official's grave to pay respects now. Can I know that the official's daughter is two years old, but she hasn't seen her father yet, should I be harmed by this kind of person? ”
Hong Tao and Wang Guan have different views, if they choose to settle the matter, then they don't need to send troops, and instead find someone to discuss with Li Xian in private, how good it is to deal with it, and they can sell face to each other. Then I join them in the same stream, hello, I'm good, everyone's good.
But if you don't say that your conscience can get by, your uncle will definitely not be happy. I'm not afraid to be stupid or slow in doing things, I'm afraid of giving up halfway. Politics is even more afraid of changing the court and changing opinions, which often does not win the approval of the new forces and loses the support of the old forces.
