(Thank you for the dawn of the night, the world without me, 080615203532484, xuwei222, noon の three quarters, the wind moves the clouds, Xiaoshe Feitian, the eagle of Xiongchu, lucky ~, you bite me ah 1973 of your monthly pass and reward, thank you!) ）

Because there are often white clouds on the top of the mountain, the mountain on the border of Ziqi is named after Changbai. The mountain is steep and uprooted, the mountains are stacked on top of each other, stretching for dozens of miles, and it is called "Mount Tai Vice-Mountain". The highest peak, the top of the Maha Summit, is as high as 300 zhang.

It is often said that there are evil thieves in dangerous mountains, and Changbai Mountain has always been entrenched by thieves and horse bandits. In terms of theory, the most famous is the Wang Bo uprising that started the peasant uprising at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and Wang Bo raised troops in Changbai Mountain.

At the foot of the gray mountain, there was a wet haze everywhere, and the continuous drizzle made the already untidy military camp at the foot of Changbai Mountain even more dirty. Sewage spread rampantly down the muddy dirt paths, washing away rotten leaves and clumps of cow, horse, mule and donkey dung everywhere, and every low-lying place was a natural trap. If you accidentally step into it, you will be covered in filth.

Many shirtless people ran through the sewage with a wooden stick. These civilians who were conscripted to come with the army were not even as good as the horses that pulled the carts, and even less as the precious war horses of the officers. As long as the cloaked officers stood in the tent and shouted to the outside world, no matter who shouted, they had to smile and come forward. In the current camp, those who can be called to do things are still a beautiful difference. Those who can be called can basically be rewarded with half a piece of steamed cake.

Don't underestimate half a piece of cooking cake, now there is a shortage of food in the army, and the supply is already limited. Even those officials only have one liter of rice a day. The Tutuan villagers were a little worse again. No more than three pancakes a day. As for the people, each man had only one loaf of bread a day. A big man, who only eats one loaf of bread a day, has to do cleaning the battlefield, digging ditches and cutting trees, etc., is tired for a day, but can only eat one loaf of bread, until it gets dark. My stomach was ringing like thunder.

Fortunately, in such weather, there was nothing else to do except sometimes earn a piece or two of bread for those officers to run errands. On such a rainy day, the mud was already muddy, and when you stepped on it, the mud could not reach the instep, and even those expensive war horses could not run.

No one wants to go to war in such weather, whether it is a rebel army or an officer or an officer. There is no war, but food still has to be eaten. Watch the ration from two liters of rice per day plus meat and vegetables. To the back of the two liters of rice and pickles, and then only corn rice or cooking cakes remained. Nowadays, there is only one liter or even less of a liter of food per person. If you go like this, it is estimated that you will have to be like those people, with only one bread a day.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, the leaders of all departments of the Pinglu Army seemed to have made an appointment, and they all poured into the big tent today.

As soon as the leaders of the various armies entered, they immediately began to cry, saying that there was no more food and grass in their barracks, and that if this continued, it would not take more than two days, and the brothers would have to return to the army.

"Dashuai, the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers!" There is a military head.

Someone immediately answered: "That's it, I want the horses to run, and the horses don't eat grass, how can there be such a thing in this world." ”

"I can't eat enough, how can I calm the chaos!"

"Dashuai, why don't you go back to the division first, and it's not too late to come back to quell the chaos when the grain and grass are raised!"

"If this continues, the brothers below will rebel!"

Song Wei sat on a chair with a sheepskin robe around his stomach, and the wound on his abdomen was scarring, itching and painful. He frowned, just coldly watching these military leaders arguing, but when he heard someone shouting that he wanted to rebel, he finally couldn't help but shout angrily: "Whoever wants to rebel, who dares to rebel!" ”

The military leaders were slightly suppressed by this voice, but after all, they couldn't help but whisper: "The soldiers and horses have not moved, and the grain and grass go first." Now that there is no food and grass, how can the brothers fight, and if we don't wait for the rebels to fight, we will starve to death! ”

"It's really not good, it's better to let the brothers from all departments go out of the camp and get food on the spot first!"

Song Wei frowned, the so-called real food on the spot when leaving the camp is just a nice saying, the real meaning is to let the men and horses of each battalion go out to loot. This head can't be opened, and once this head is opened, there will be endless troubles. Ziqi Erzhou was originally a place where Wang Jingwu and others had been operating for a long time, and if the officials and troops went to rob the people again, how would the officials and troops gain a foothold here in the future.

At this moment, suddenly the sound of horses' hooves galloping and trampling was heard outside the tent.

"Report! Report to the marshal, Judge Lei is back! ”

When the leaders of the camp heard this, they couldn't help but turn their heads to look at the soldiers. Lei just went to Dengzhou, and they knew about it. What Lei Gang did when he went to Dengzhou, they all knew pretty much it, some said that they were going to Dengzhou to transfer the eastern army to come, some said that they were going to transfer Dengzhou soldiers to come, and some said that they were going to Li Jing to transfer money and grain. Li Jing's Zhendong Army is rich, which is something that everyone in Ziqing Town knows.

Now that Ray had just returned, everyone couldn't help but wait for him to come in, expecting to hear the good news. The best news is, of course, that Li Jing is here with the Zhendong Army, and with the Zhendong Army here, it is not a problem to suppress the rebellion, and there is no need for them to stay here all the time. No matter how bad it is, it is also a good thing that there are Dengzhou soldiers coming, of course, the most urgent thing is that Lei Gang brought back the grain and grass.

Since the troops came to quell the rebellion, the grain and grass in the army has been tight, although there is a section of Sima in Qingzhou responsible for the preparation of grain and grass, but each time it is transported, there is only a little, not enough for the army to eat and drink for a few days.

In the expectation of everyone, Lei Gang walked into the big tent covered in mud and full of exhaustion. Facing Song Wei's expectant gaze, Lei Gang was tired but couldn't hold back his excitement and said: "Handsome, I am fortunate to be not dishonored!" ”

Song Wei's frowning brows suddenly relaxed, and a rare smile appeared on his face, and the other generals were also smiling happily at this time.

"General Song Wen led 20,000 soldiers and horses from all parts of Dengzhou, and he was rushing day and night. In addition, General Li Jing knew that our army was now short of food and wages, so he took the initiative to transfer 300,000 stones, grain and grass, 3 million yuan, 3,000 sets of swords, guns, bows, arrows, armor, 300,000 arrows, and 1,000 war horses. All the supplies have been delivered to General Song Wen and brought with him. I came first to report the good news, and General Song Wen will arrive with troops, horses, money, food, and ordnance later. ”

The generals were shocked, and he was shocked by the number. When he came back to his senses, the generals surrounded Lei Gang one after another, and someone said: "Judge Lei, did Li Jing really transfer 300,000 stone grain and grass and 3 million money?" ”

"General Lei, then Li Jing really gave so much money and food, wouldn't it be fake?"

Lei Gang smiled: "It's not fake, it's true." These ordnance, money, and food have been escorted by General Song Wen with his army, and they will arrive tomorrow at the latest. ”

300,000 stone of grain, even if you add the Dengzhou soldiers, as well as the people, etc., counting 50,000 horses, it will only consume less than 20,000 stone of grain a month, and there is so much grain and grass, which is enough for the army for a year. What made them even more excited was the three million yuan, the reward that Song Wei promised everyone several times before had not been fulfilled, and even the first-level merit of killing the enemy was owed. Now that there is so much money, everyone can get a lot of it, and those ordnance war horses, how can they also get a piece of the pie.

Looking at the expressions of the generals, Song Wei didn't understand their thoughts, and immediately waved his hand and said, "Okay, spread the news to the battalions and make the brothers happy." You don't have to worry, when the money and grain arrive, the grain and grass owed to the camps, as well as the reward money, will be made up in full. Even if it is ordnance, it will also be distributed to the battalions, now, everyone will go back to the camp, prepare, and send troops to meet Song Wen early tomorrow morning. ”

The generals were obedient this time, and they all hurriedly said goodbye and went back.

After the generals left, only the deputy marshal Kang Chengyu, the Jiedu rebel Lei Gang, the envoy, the secretary, the pusher, the inspector, the yatui, and the generals of the personal guard battalion, as well as Zhang Wanrong, the envoy of the supervising army, and the deputy envoy, the small envoy and other people from the supervising military academy. Song Wei and Zhang Wanrong are now cooperating sincerely, working together, and bent on dealing with Wang Jingwu, and the relationship between them is very good.

Kang Chengzhi was a little surprised and said: "This Li Jing, why did he take out all the money, food, and ordnance so happily, and he didn't lose it?" Is there anything special about this? ”

Lei Gang said all of Li Jing's previous words, "I don't think Li Jing is what we thought before, listening to his words, he is still very loyal to the big handsome." I was going to take the initiative to reduce it, but instead he offered to deliver it in full. said yes, it is important for the handsome to calm the chaos. He also said that as long as the commander called, he and the Zhendong army would come immediately. He also said that even if he took over the history of Dengzhou, Dengzhou would still be under the jurisdiction of the marshal in the future, and Dengzhou's money and grain taxes would continue to be handed over to the marshal's mansion. ”

"What do you think of Li Jing?" Song Wei asked.

Kang Chengzhi said: "Although Li Jing, this kid is old, if you talk about it, he is brave in battle, and he is brave and strategic, but he doesn't say it." will simply make money, it is difficult for others to raise soldiers, but the more soldiers he raises, the more money he makes. This kid feels like a fierce horse, a majestic horse, but it is difficult to control. ”

Song Wei agreed with Kang Chengyu's evaluation very much, Li Jing is such a horse, knowing that it is a thousand-mile horse, but he is unruly.

Zhang Wanrong, the military supervisor, said with a smile: "I think that although Li Jing has some temperament, who has the ability to have no temperament, especially a young man like Li Jing?" According to our family, Li Jing's loyalty to the handsome is still undoubted, if he has some other thoughts, how can he hear the handsome beckoning, so he will bring the elite here. learned of Wang Jingwu's conspiracy, and came to the aid of 300 miles alone, broke into Qingzhou to save us people? Watching him fight bloody battles with the rebels, first capturing Qingzhou and then breaking the rebels, this is all loyal. This time the situation is also the same, I heard that we are short of food and salary, and this is not immediately sent so much money, food, and ordnance, and there is no delay at all, if such a person still doubts his loyalty, I am afraid that it will be chilling.
