Chapter 823: The Great Meal

treats the common people, Liu Yin also implements the same standards, and does not deprive the people of food in their mouths because of lack of food. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info because Liu Yin knows that the common people are the water that carries the boat, and it is the basis for the survival of the Shu army, if there are no ordinary people, in this deep mountain and old forest, the team of the Shu army can only fight less and less, and finally perish.

The army and the people are in the water, that is not an empty word, leaving the foundation of the people, no matter how strong the army is, it is just a fish in the dry water, in the most difficult period, what is most needed is to help each other in the same boat, never give up.

In the troubled times, these Li Shu people are like duckweed, drifting with the tide in the stormy waves, seeing too many killings, seeing too much tyranny, and surviving by luck is not an easy thing for every ordinary person.

In other words, the army of the Hu people has already killed and robbed them all, and the army of the Jin State does not care about them, leaving them to fend for themselves, but the Shu army led by Liu Yin can eat the same meal as the people and treat them equally.

The heavy snowfall has made this winter extremely cold, and many of the soldiers and civilians in the base areas who lack food and clothing are dying of cold and starvation, and are in a difficult situation.

When the New Year was approaching, the Shu army was completely out of food, after all, food was limited, so many people and horses, no matter how much they saved, there would be a day when they would be eaten up.

Chen Shou went to see Liu Yin with the account book and told him that there was no more rice in the warehouse, as the logistics manager of the Shu army, Chen Shou was helpless, and it was difficult for a good woman to cook without rice.

Of course, there are also some seeds, which are stored separately, Liu Yin has ordered that no matter at any time, the seeds must not be eaten, the seeds are hope, if the hope of the next year is also eaten, then it is really a desperate situation.

"Kill the horses!" Liu Yin's mood is also very heavy, he will not make this determination unless he has to, many of these war horses are followed by Liu Yin from the Shu army to fight, and have made great contributions to the victory of the Shu army again and again, but, compared with people, Liu Yin values people more, if these war horses can save more lives, Liu Yin has to sacrifice them.

Chen Shou was silent and slowly retreated, but not long after, Fu Zhu rushed in like a storm.

"Brother-in-law, why do you want to kill the horse? Do you know that without these horses, can the Tiger Cavalry still be called the Tiger Cavalry? The next time we fight with the Huns, what will we fight? Fu had a loud voice and a look of indignation.

Liu Yin said calmly: "Then do you know that there is no grain in our warehouse, that is to say, after eating today's meal, there will be nothing to eat tomorrow." Zicheng, tell me, if I don't kill the horse, what will I eat tomorrow? ”

Fu Shu was stunned, he also knew that the Shu army was facing the crisis of food shortage, but as the protector of the Tiger Cavalry Army, he had a deep relationship with these war horses, and when he thought that the matter was irreparable, Fu Zhu couldn't help but have red circles in his eyes, and his voice was choked: "Brother-in-law, I can't help it, these war horses have been with us for many years, I have long regarded them as brothers, but now I want to eat their flesh and drink their blood, I ...... I ......"

Liu Yin couldn't help but be a little moved, and sighed lightly: "Zicheng, I can understand your thoughts, we are all people with feelings, these war horses have accompanied us for many years, and it is indeed unbearable to kill them, but for the survival of the army and the people, I also have to make this determination, we have no choice now." Don't worry, the first to kill will only be those sick horses, thin horses and disabled horses, really good horses, I will not move, as long as I survive this winter, there will be a turnaround. ”

On the first day of the first month of the eighth year of the Yanxing of the Shu Han Dynasty, the Shu army camp was filled with an attractive fragrance, and the soldiers of the Shu army were starving all winter, and they all stretched out their noses, revealing a salivating appearance.

In the battle with the Huns last autumn, the Shu army still captured a lot of Hun war horses, plus the thin horses and remnants of the Shu army's war horses, the problem of supporting the Shu army's rations for a month or two is not too big, today is the first day of the new year, Liu Yin decided to let the soldiers of the Shu army eat a full meal, so kill twice as many horses, and be ready to treat them well.

Dozens of marching pots were steaming hot and boiling large pieces of horse meat, and the tempting aroma was enough to make people go into shock, and the Shu soldiers in the camp were waiting for their eyes, and their saliva was flowing all over the ground.

However, the discipline of the Shu army is strict, and no one dares to move forward without permission before the meal, if it is replaced by Hu people, I am afraid that they will be robbed alive at this time.

The man cut the large pieces of horse meat into small pieces on the table, and cut the offal and horse blood into the same size, grabbed an equal handful and put it in a bowl, and then poured the horse bone broth on it, and lined it up on the table bowl by bowl.

Finally heard the order to open the meal, the soldiers of the Shu army lined up in a long line, and stepped forward in an orderly manner to receive their own share of broth. Many soldiers devoured it, and many said it was the most delicious meal they had ever eaten in their lives.

Fu Zhi squatted on the ground alone, bored with a branch drawing circles, Ah Jian walked over with two large bowls, handed one to Fu Zhi, and said, "Well, here you go-"

Fu Zhi just glanced at it, shook his head lightly and said, "You eat it, I don't want to eat it." ”

Ah Jian smiled and said, "I didn't expect General Fu to care so much about these war horses, it's just that this person is iron, and the rice is steel, if you don't eat, you will definitely collapse." ”

Fu exhaled lightly and said, "I know, but I really don't have an appetite now, and I really can't eat it." ”

Ah Jian put down the bowl, took out a piece of dry dough cake from his arms, handed it to Fu Zhu, and said, "How can you do it without eating, take this first two bites." ”

Fu Zhu was a little surprised and said: "Didn't you say that the army has run out of food, how can you still have bread?" ”

"Can't I save it?" Ah Jian said with a smile.

"Damn, it's so possible, the daily food in the army can only barely make ends meet, how can there be surplus food? Could it be that you are the captain of my brother-in-law's personal guard, so you can eat and take advantage of it? Fu said suspiciously.

Since the implementation of the rationing system, the Shu army has been treated with the same food from Liu Yin to ordinary soldiers, and Fu Zhi, who is the general of the army, has no privilege to eat more and occupy more, Ah Jian can actually store surplus food, does this guy go through the back door?

Ah Jian laughed and said: "You have wronged me, when have I ever eaten and occupied, these cakes are just dry food that I brought when I went out on a mission, and I was not willing to eat them, if you don't eat them, I will take them back?" (To be continued.) )
