Chapter 584: Roasting meat to lift the army's heart
"Uncle, the little nephew suddenly had a plan, which can greatly boost the morale of our army and make the Turkic morale fall again!" Xia Hongsheng opened his mouth and said to Li Jing and Li Tao.
"Huh?" Li Jing and Li Tao, whose attention was attracted by horse meat, turned their heads at the same time and looked at Xia Hongsheng: "What's the plan?" ”
Xia Hongsheng squeezed his eyes, smiled evilly, and said: "The Turks have been defeated one after another, and now they are trapped in Tieshan, I'm afraid I haven't eaten a full meal for a long time......
"What does the virtuous nephew mean......" Li Tao suddenly looked down at the horse meat on the fire.
Xia Hongsheng saw that he had understood what he meant, so he smiled again: "Back then, Han Xin defeated King Xiang and was embattled. Now how about we give Jieli a four-sided meat fragrance? We defeated the Turkic cavalry several times, and got a lot of horses, and those horses that were seriously wounded and untreated were killed and taken horse meat, and now we still have a lot of horse meat in our army. And our soldiers have also fought hard for several battles, fighting desperately, and they have repeatedly defeated the Turkic army, and they should be rewarded. Today the weather happened to be fine, and the wind was blowing in the direction of the Turkic tents. Therefore, the little nephew suggested that all the horse meat should be taken out and distributed to the soldiers, and the seasonings of the little nephew should also be distributed to the soldiers, so that the soldiers could collectively barbecue the horse meat. Second, the fragrance wafted to the Turkic military tent, and the Turks in it were hungry, how could they endure the smell of meat? I can't say, don't say that the morale will be low when the time comes, I'm afraid that there are people who secretly run out and surrender! The lower the morale of the Turks, the less resistance we will encounter when we take the opportunity to sneak attack, and the smoother it will be. ”
"Hehe, this strategy is a coincidence, but the virtuous nephew is not afraid of the smell of meat from those Turks on the other side for a long time. I wanted to taste it too much, but it aroused morale again, and I desperately rushed over to grab food? Tang Jian laughed, amused by Xia Hongsheng's strategy of fragrant meat on all sides, so he smiled.
"Uncle Tang, don't worry. Even if the Turks were hungry to death, they did not dare to fight. Xia Hongsheng said with a smile: "Your Majesty sent you as envoys to the Turks to surrender, and the lost thinking must have been transmitted back to the Turks." Our army is only treating its own soldiers, and it is not using troops against him. Jieli must not dare to let the Turks do it. Once it is done, it means that Jieli will never have a chance to make a comeback. Therefore, the Turks will not fight for these foods, they can only smell dryly! Our soldiers have a full meal, and they have more morale and strength to attack the Turkic tent, after all, there are tens of thousands of people inside. Even if they are all motionless and waiting to be cut, it will take a lot of effort. ”
After speaking, Xia Hongsheng looked at Li Jing and Li Tao, and the two of them looked at each other again. Xia Hongsheng felt that there was no need to talk in the communication between the two of them, and he knew what the other party was thinking at a glance when he looked at each other.
"Even if the soldiers have been used for days, the soldiers have also suffered. If so, then it is as the virtuous nephew said! Li Jing finally nodded. said: "This is a strategy to lure the enemy and increase the prestige of our army." And the morale of the enemy army is not a pleasure in the army. Order, today's patrol soldiers, to patrol strictly, not to take it lightly, in case of Turkic raids. After the other soldiers have run out. Then go and replace them. ”
Xia Hongsheng immediately hugged his fist excitedly: "Order!" The little nephew will arrange it! ”
Xia Hongsheng hurriedly sprinkled some seasoning on the roasted horse meat, flipped it a few times, handed it to everyone to eat first, and then turned around and ran out.
I ran to the baggage and found the spices I had brought in. There are tens of thousands of troops, and this little spice is definitely not enough. However, even a little bit is enough to make the taste even better than what you would normally eat in the barracks.
Li Jing and the others enjoyed horse meat in the camp tent, and they also took the opportunity to catch the wind for Tang Jian, otherwise if it was a weekday, Li Jing and the others would eat with the soldiers, without exception.
After a while, I heard the sound of cheers outside, and it immediately became lively.
Li Jing was curious, walked to the door of the tent and lifted the curtain to look outside, only to see that the soldiers outside were all excited, full of energy running around to prepare things, one or two looked very happy, everyone was in good spirits, not at all like people who had fought several battles in bad weather.
"Hehe, this Xia Hongsheng, figuring out people's hearts is very accurate." Tang Jian stood behind Li Jing, and said with a smile: "This kid has seen people's hearts very thoroughly!" ”
Xia Hongsheng shuttled back and forth in the camp, watching a few people set up a fire in a group, and then instructed them on how to use those seasonings.
Gradually, the camp began to diffuse pieces of meat aroma, seasonings mixed with the aroma of meat roasting lingering back and forth in mid-air, entangled, spreading, and then carried away by the wind, drifting farther away.
As far as the aroma of the barbecued meat spread, there was also the sound of the soldiers in the battalion laughing. Gathered around the bonfire, smelling the smell of meat, the fire and the smell of meat seemed to sweep away the gloom and snow that had been all the time, as if the sun shone into everyone's heart again, making people's hearts feel relaxed for a while, and the difficulties in front of them suddenly felt that they were not difficult, and the confidence in their hearts returned to the soldiers with warmth and aroma. Looking further over the Iron Mountain, his eyes turned into contempt, and he didn't seem to take the Turks on the other side seriously.
However, it was said that during the collective barbecue in the Tang military camp, there were several figures outside the camp, riding horses and turning around in the direction away from the camp.
"I said that Brother Sheng'er is too, it's not good for anyone to visit the Turks, and they will catch their own brothers and come to the pit!" The first one rode on the horse and looked back enviously from time to time, and said: "When I go back to Chang'an, I have to go to Brother Sheng'er's house to eat for two days!" ”
"Hehe, they're all dirt soldiers, how delicious can the baked things be?" Another person said: "It's okay not to eat today, but you still have to go to Brother Sheng'er's house to eat his family banquet, which can be regarded as an authentic taste." ”
"It's all said. We are in the army, not more than usual, we have to call General Xia. Another person said, "Calling us here today, and not letting others come, is brotherhood." Today, if there is a movement of the Turks, then we will discover the enemy's situation, anticipate the enemy's opportunity, and prevent the Turks from stealing the camp, which is a great achievement. Even if the Turks don't move today, we have no merit and hard work. We are all noble children, and others are already looking at us more strictly. The barbecue in the army is said to be a trick to lure the enemy, but it is not very tenable in the end. If Brother Sheng doesn't send us out today, if someone says it in the future, there will be idlers who chew their tongues. Today, let's go out for a day of inspection, and we can still get a small credit. ”
"Yes, Brother Karma is right!" Li Chongyi nodded and said: "Lord Yuanzheng singled out a few of us, it must be useful, not for nothing, we still have to complete the task and keep an eye on the movements of the Turks." ”
These people are Fang Yiai, Du He, Li Yexu and Li Chongyi, together with Cheng Chumo, who did not speak next to him, they are all noble children in the military academy.
"Ah sneeze ......" Xia Hongsheng, who was waiting for the barbecue to be fully cooked, sneezed and rubbed his nose. The heart said, those few gentlemen usually don't lack barbecue this thing, in order to save seasoning, so they deliberately spent it, it won't be that they found out the intention of this son, and scolded this son behind his back, right?!
