Luo Cheng looked at the county seat of Yunzhou not far away, the city of three miles and the Guo of seven miles. Yunzhou is such a standard city, and the time for the war horse to run around is just a stick of incense.

The gates were shut, and the drawbridge was raised. The soldiers running around the city were in a mess, and they had clothes of all colors. As for weapons, those who have a spear are considered elite. Most of them were armed with wooden sticks, as was the case with the poor peasant army, and iron tools were always a scarce commodity.

looked back at his subordinates, all of them were fat and strong. He was wearing iron armor and holding a horse lance in his hand. There was a horizontal knife stuck in his waist, and his cheeks hung down in the horse bag on the horse's buttocks. Around the horse's neck, there was also a bow and arrow. After putting down the armor, it was really armed to the teeth. Luo Cheng thought that it only took one charge to take down those rabbles on the head of the city.

"Young master, let's attack the city. Let's take down such a city in one go. Why wait for those stupid pawns in the back, it will change later. In case that Wang Xuanying ran away in the middle of the night, the merits in hand would fly. "Luo Tong has followed Luo Cheng since he was a teenager, and he has experienced countless big and small battles, and in his eyes, these guys in Yunzhou City are standard fish belly.

"Don't say more, it's not okay to siege the city. The city wall of Yunzhou is not high, but it is almost two or three zhang. War horses can't fly, we are cavalry. I didn't bring a ladder to rush to the car, and told the brothers to be vigilant. Especially at night, if we don't let Wang Xuanying run away, we will do a great job. Luo Cheng thought about Yun Hao's admonition, but still gave up the idea of attacking the city.

Yun Hao was right, the advantage of cavalry was field warfare. Let his cavalry go to siege the city, pure fragmentation is a brain-dead act.

At this time, Yun Hao was following the army to Yunzhou. Calculating the time, now Luo Cheng has arrived at the city of Yunzhou. The army does not have to go out by day and night, starting from last night. The army was marching at a rapid pace, and the last time it rested was at breakfast.

Breakfast is cold steamed buns, which are dry food distributed in Zhuozhou. Yun Hao has more than a dozen carts under his command, and all of them are pots. You can't bring anything else, you can only boil some boiling water for the big guy. Eating too many cold steamed buns will cause stomach pain, and drinking some hot water is much better. Now you don't have to hide your tracks, and there is no problem with starting a fire.

"Yun Hou is really thoughtful!" Wei Zheng held a huge pottery bowl in his hand, "sucking" and "sucking" boiling water. After a night of driving, boiling water entered the stomach and was indescribably comfortable. After a while, a thin layer of sweat oozed from the door of his head.

"The Qin soldiers endured hard fighting, but the bodies of the soldiers were not iron. As the chief of the march, Yun naturally wanted to ensure the maximum combat power of the army as much as possible. "Yun Hao doesn't like to eat steamed buns, he has biscuits in his bag.

As for the bag of the mighty sea, it is even more abundant. The generals spread out a piece of oilcloth, and you and I added something to it, and soon the oilcloth was full of food. It is all the dry food of the Yun family, and some Wei Zheng knows. Some Wei Zheng didn't know it, and Wei Zheng, who had eaten two steamed buns, stuffed half of the steamed buns in his hand to the servant without hesitation, and sat down beside Yun Hao by himself.

"The old man of Huainan once said that it is the most pleasant thing to fight with Yunhou. A meal between the marches was also made like a wild tour. When I saw it today, it really deserved its name. Wei admires, admires! The old bastard arched his hand at Yun Hao, and then started to eat. Pick up a piece of braised beef and start nibbling.

The braised beef of the Yun family is all large pieces of beef that are boiled in thick salty salt water and then dried. Looking at the layer of hoarfrost on the side of the beef, Yun Hao could guess how salty the meat was.

In fact, military rations don't pay much attention to taste, and practicality comes first. This corned beef is thrown into a soup pot and then placed on a turn of somen noodles without salt at all. Yun Hao originally wanted to use this thing as bacon. Now that Wei Zheng picked it up and gnawed it, Yun Hao was very worried that this ancient mirror would be killed alive.

Sure enough, after biting two bites, Wei Zheng shouted for water. The servants hurriedly brought a bowl of hot water, and watched Wei Zheng scratch his ears and cheeks as he was scalded, but he still gulped and sucked. Yun Hao couldn't hold back his joy! Xiong Kuohai looked at Wei Zheng's eyes, as if he was looking at a turtle.

"Wash-sama-sama still eats this." Yun Hao took out an oiled paper bag from the oilcloth and opened it in three or two clicks. Take out a piece of cake from it!

"Thank you!" Wei Zheng thanked him and gnawed on it like a stream. For he found that they were eating this thing in the vast sea.

This thing is very hard, chewing in the mouth as if chewing on a crunchy bone, and smells like green onions. But the taste is very good, some sweet and some milky. Wei Zheng can be regarded as a well-informed person, but this is the first time he has eaten this thing.

After nibbling on a piece, Yun Hao handed him a bowl of warm boiled water. Wei Zheng, who had been thirsty for a long time, drank the water in the bowl in one gulp, but saw Yun Hao looking at him with a smile. I touched my body, and I didn't see anything wrong with my hand in a circle on my face. I couldn't help but ask strangely, "Why is Yun Hou laughing?" ”

"Is the gentleman still hungry?" Yun Hao said with a smile.

Wei Zheng suddenly felt as if he was really not hungry. Not only was he not hungry, but his stomach was a little swollen. It's as if you've eaten a lot of food, and according to your own amount of food, a small piece of cake can't achieve this effect.

Wei Zheng looked at Yun Hao in surprise and said, "What is this, just this small piece can be full?" "He's a smart guy and naturally knows the value of this thing in war.

For a long time, the transportation of grain, grass and baggage has always been a long-standing problem for the army. A truckload of grain and straw can only be transported to the front line by people and horses, and only half a cart can be left. If the road is long, only one cart of three truckloads of grain will be left to transport to the destination. So much so that when the Han general Wei Qing went out to conquer outside the Saiwai, hundreds of thousands of people were needed to ensure his logistical supply. If there is such a thing, it is simply the treasure of the army. The problems that have plagued the generals for a thousand years will be solved.

"When the boy was about to go out, he made some of this thing, using soybeans, millet, flour, sugar, salt, and most importantly, the boy added a lot of meat powder, steamed these foods, and then put them under the big stones to press and shape, and then dried them, and it became this thing, what do you think?" Yun Hao said with a smile.

This thing is actually the Tang version of compressed biscuits, when I was a child, I lived next to the arsenal, and I couldn't be more familiar with this process. Now cloned, everything is the same except that it can't be vacuumed. Now that the weather is gradually getting colder, Yun Hao thinks that this thing has absolutely no possibility of corruption and deterioration in the winter of Hebei.

"Eat and eat, your Yun family is considered the top in my Datang. I didn't expect that military rations could do the same. Since you showed this to the old man, the old man simply fulfilled you. I believe that you have already started large-scale production, and the military department will order 100,000 catties of this thing. After this battle, the old man issued a document.

The old man was alone and didn't want anything. It's just that this is divided into two percent, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must have two percent of the shares. Do you have any comments? Wei Zheng stroked his beard, this is not only the East Palace Washing Horse. also has an errand in the military department, and his new face is still in the book, and Qu Tutong does not dare to dial it.

"Deal!" After Yun Hao raised his palm and high-fived Wei Zheng three times, the contract was considered effective. No one will repay the debt, a marquis and a horse wash in the East Palace, and the debt is not enough to lose people's money.

One meal made a big business for the family, and the majestic sea was amazed by the master's ability to do business. The compressed biscuits in the mouth were eaten in two bites, it was so wise to take refuge in this uncle back then, and the majestic sea now worships himself, if there is a mirror, he can't wait to knock one for himself.

Whether it was Wei Zheng or Li Jiancheng, they all felt that there was no need to delay work on the road. The army slaughtered towards Yunzhou City in smoke and dust, as long as Wang Xuanying could be caught this expedition, it would be considered half of the success.

Under the supervision of Li Jiancheng, the army frantically hurried towards Yunzhou. What can be walked in three days can be completed in a day and a half. The soldiers were tired and stuck out their tongues like dogs, and the forced march almost drained their physical strength.

Li Jiancheng was surprised to find that other people's teams were so tired that they couldn't stand up. Qiu Shili and Sheng Yanshi's subordinates were still able to maintain a strict queue. And looking at it this way, it's not much of a problem to walk for another day. Although these two people came from different places, the predecessors of their armies were both the new army trained by Yun Hao.

"Brother Hao, in the end, you still know how to train. After I go back, do you have any thoughts about going out? The position of the left squire of the military department is vacant. Li Jiancheng really wanted to win over this kid, so he did not hesitate to throw out the official position of Zuo Shilang in the military department. You must know that this can be the second-in-command of the Ministry of War, and his status is second only to the Book of the Ministry of War.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince praised it, in fact, they were able to walk because they were all leggings. If you look at the cloth straps on their legs, they're called leggings. As long as the soldiers have this thing wrapped around their calves, they won't be too tired even if they walk for a day. Yun Hao pointed to the leggings on the soldiers' legs and explained to Li Jiancheng.

"Tie a cloth strap to walk more?" Li Jiancheng's jaw was about to drop, but he didn't expect the solution to the matter to be so simple.

"It's true that the principle behind this is complicated. However, tying a cloth strap can reduce the fatigue of the march. ”

"Hmmm! , this method is good, Wei Zheng, after going back, it will be promoted in the military department. Brother Hao, it seems that you are the left squire of the military department. Li Jiancheng patted Yun Hao's shoulder with a smile, which was a sign of favor. I didn't look at Xue Wanjun and Xue Wanche, and I didn't look at Yun Hao's eyes.

No matter what kind of basis they have, Lao Tzu doesn't dare to wade into the muddy waters of Li Jiancheng. The current Li Jiancheng is almost carved out of the same mold as the one described in the history books. It seems that the dirty things written in the Tang Book are not water without a source.

Seeing that Yun Hao didn't speak, he glanced at the sun slanting westward. Li Jiancheng commanded: "Set up camp, make siege equipment, and attack the city tomorrow." ”

"Whoa!" The three armies promised, and the roar was like thunder.

Luo Cheng's eyes were like rabbits, and he was relieved to see the arrival of the army. It seems that he has been on the horse for the past two days. So much so that after getting off the horse, he walked with lap legs.

"You guys are here, not even a rabbit has escaped from Yunzhou City. Wang Xuanying should still be in the city! Luo Cheng let out a long yawn, and what he wanted to do most now was sleep.

"General Luo has worked hard, hurry up and rest. Tomorrow's siege of the city also requires General Luo to show his might. Li Jiancheng suddenly came out from behind Yun Hao, causing Luo Cheng to hurry up and give a salute.

"Hurry up and go to bed, nothing is as important as sleep right now. After a while, the army besieged the city, and Wang Xuanying was not afraid of him flying out even if he had wings. Yun Hao comforted Luo Chengdao. Man is not a machine, as long as he keeps adding energy, he can keep running. If you don't sleep for several days in a row, even if you are a professionally trained special forces, your combat effectiveness will be reduced to scum.

"The last general ......!" Luo Cheng was about to say goodbye to Li Jiancheng and go to bed, when he suddenly saw Li Jiancheng looking behind Luo Cheng in horror. Turning his head, Luo Cheng saw a very thick column of smoke rising from Yunzhou City. The number of pillars of smoke is constantly increasing, and orange fires can be faintly seen through the walls.

"It's not good, Wang Xuan should run." Wei Zheng exclaimed.

Yun Hao was a little puzzled, Wang Xuan should not run early or late, how could he choose to escape when the army arrived. But it's no wonder that this is his last chance to escape. Once the army besieged the city, he never had a chance to jump again.

"General Qiyu, the north gate opens. About 1,000 horsemen fled northward, and the brethren guarding the north gate pursued them. A scout quickly ran to Luo Cheng to report.

Luo Cheng suddenly jumped on the war horse, and waved the long lance in his hand. Shouted: "Come with me!" ”

"Slow!" Yun Hao rubbed his right eyelid that was jumping violently, and stopped Luo Cheng with a loud shout.

"Something is wrong with this!" Yun Hao stopped Luo Cheng's war horse road.

"What's wrong?" Li Jiancheng looked at the rebel soldiers on the city wall, and said with some puzzlement.

"I can't tell, it doesn't feel right. Luo Cheng, you can't chase it. Yun Hao didn't know what was going on, he just felt sensitively that something was wrong with this matter. But what was wrong, he couldn't figure it out.

"Your Highness! Wang Xuan should be a cavalryman, as long as he escapes, it will be difficult to catch him again. Wei Zheng said urgently. This time, the main target of the troops was Wang Xuanying. Now that the culprit has run away, how will Chang'an explain to Li Yuan.

"Brother Hao, the soldiers are very fast, and Wang Xuanying will run away if you delay for a while." Luo Cheng also roared urgently. He led people to wait outside Yuncheng for three days, just to block Wang Xuanying. Now that the man has run away, have not the sins of these two days been in vain?

"No way!" Yun Hao's uneasy feeling became more and more intense, and he grabbed Luo Cheng's reins and didn't let Luo Cheng chase after him.

"Open the clouds, Luo Cheng, you want to bring Wang Xuanying, the evil thief, back to Lone." Li Jiancheng glanced at Yun Hao and coldly issued his own order.

"Smack!" I didn't see Luo Cheng's movements, and Yun Hao felt a numbness in his arm. Luo Cheng had already pulled back the reins, and the war horse rushed towards the north with a neigh.

"Come back!" Yun Hao roared at the smoke and dust in the sky.
