Chapter 130: The Night Before the War
Bonfires began to burn, and the armies on both sides began to rest on alert.
The morale of the soldiers of the aristocratic coalition is particularly high today, when they learned that there were only 30,000 people on the other side, they put down the last trace of doubt in their hearts, in the eyes of the coalition soldiers, this is simply a stress-free armed march, and it is rare for the nobles on the head to be so generous this time, not to mention that they can eat enough along the way, and they can actually get one or two meat tonight, which makes the soldiers excited, and with the ' When the news of the rebels' retreat and their fear of confronting the coalition spread through the camp, people looked down on the other side even more.
In general, the whole camp, from the soldiers to the nobles, was permeated with a spirit of optimism, which rose to an absolute height when the logistics officers began to make meat.
It's just unthinkable that the first confrontation between Lelouch and the aristocratic alliance actually started at this time.
"Eat meat~"
"Eat meat, eat meat!"
"The little cubs on the other side haven't eaten meat when they're so big!"
...
To tell the truth, when the coalition soldiers spontaneously began to provoke, the entire garrison regiment was stunned, whether it was from the soldiers to Lelouch, everyone stood for a moment and didn't know what to say.
At first, we were surprised, after all, we didn't expect them to provoke, it wasn't their provocation that we didn't expect, but the content of their provocation that we didn't expect.
When the roar of the coalition soldiers wafted along the smell of meat to the opposite garrison army, first Lelouch couldn't help laughing, and then the whole camp laughed, anyway, the people in the garrison really looked down on the 'beggar' coalition army opposite, well, the word beggar is better, because in the garrison, only beggars will not be able to eat meat.
Lelouch didn't give the order to go down to add food, because long before the break, Lelouch had already let people prepare a rich dinner, but Lelouch felt that this was not enough, he thought about it, and suddenly said to Wang Zifeng:
"Zifeng, I know that you are the godson, the future pope, so presumably, you will definitely be magical!"
Wang Zifeng heard Lu Luxiu's kind smile on his face, and the question that floated like a spring breeze, suddenly a very bad idea appeared in his mind, and seeing that Wang Zifeng tidied up his clothes, he said with perseverance and sadness:
"Son of God, you also know that I am the godson, the future pope, so there are some things that I definitely can't do!"
"Don't worry, I won't let anyone else know!"
"I..."
"This is the will of the Lord who came~"
When Wang Zifeng did that thing according to Lelouch's idea, it was not until a hundred years later that it was unsealed by the church as a top secret, and this legendary figure in the history of the human race left only this sentence in the record:
"Actually, at the beginning, I refused to use magic to blow the wind, because, you can't let me blow it, I'll blow it immediately, first I want to take a look, because I don't want to be found out by others after blowing it is done by my godson, for example, the wind is suddenly "big", very fierce, very urgent, so that the person who has blown the wind will definitely scold me, there is no such a big wind, it proves that the wind is not good at all, I am lying. Later, I also tried to confirm that the wind was indeed blowing, and when I blew slightly, the smell of meat in the camp wafted over, and later when I was blowing the wind, I also asked Miko not to talk about it everywhere, because I wanted to let the people of the coalition army on the other side see that even if it is more than eating, God is on our side. ”
Not long after the great godson comrade Wang Zifeng sneaked behind the camp, a breeze that was not in a hurry swept across the camp and drifted towards the coalition army, but in this breeze, it brought almost all the vegetables in the garrison camp.
A group of coalition soldiers sat around the campfire, the filthy iron pot filled the crowd with the smell of boiling broth, making those who smell it sniff hard.
"Oh, this meat is so delicious!"
"I haven't smelled meat for almost three years, and the last time I smelled it was when the knight married his daughter. ”
"Wait, let me smell it well", a veteran interjected with a reverent and focused face:
"Well, the potatoes are boiled, and this is the taste of dried vegetables, and, oh, praise the noble lord, this is actually still chicken, well, the taste of roast chicken~, also, grilled fish, strong meat aroma..."
As he spoke, the veteran with a keen sense of smell couldn't go on, and he opened his eyes in disbelief, staring intently at the 'magical' iron pot in front of him.
But the veteran then found that the smell was not coming from the pot in front of him, but from the wind, or rather, from the opposite hill.
"My God, what are you eating on the other side?"
The Coalition soldiers who smelled the smell closed their eyes and indulged in the scent, then wondered in disbelief.
This magical wind soon permeated the entire camp, and the entire camp was covered in the smell of meat, and the morale of the coalition soldiers, who had greatly increased their morale because of the meat to eat, began to decline at this time, especially when they thought of the provocation they had just made, they were a little embarrassed, and they said that they were not afraid of bad goods, but they were afraid of comparing goods.
Originally, the soldiers were very grateful to Decrees for eating meat, but now, where is there still a trace of gratitude in the hearts of the soldiers, and the most is just a complaint that they dare not express.
"These aristocratic lords are really picky, we were born and died for them, and as a result, they didn't even give us a good meal, are our demands too much" I just want a roast chicken or grilled fish. ”
Such a thought filled the minds of almost every soldier, and they invariably looked at the noble tent in the distance, and the big nobles had not yet discovered the situation outside at this time, because the soldiers knew that in the noble tent at this time, there was food that was not worse than the opposite side, so naturally they did not pay attention to this taste, but they did not suffer from widowhood, but from unevenness.
After the soldiers in the garrison watched their logistics prepare the food and serve it, the opposite side suddenly quieted down, and they all looked at each other and smiled, if the great god son only has one weakness, then it must be inseparable from food, and the god son is not willing to be special, he must eat the same thing as the soldiers, then there is no way, so he has to constantly improve the logistics skills.
Tomorrow's battle may not be too difficult, but it will definitely not be easy, so it is necessary to eat well, on average, one grilled fish, half a roast chicken, a bowl of rice with potatoes and roast meat completely soaked in a fragrant oil broth, and crispy pickled radish, this meal is both delicious and hearty.
After the soldiers led their own dinner, they were more willing to eat the potato roast meat completely poured on the sea bowl of rice, made into a simple and quick rice bowl, and then put the grilled fish on the rice, the roasted delicate fish meat mixed with soft fish bones, chewed vigorously, and ate it was tender with a hint of chewiness, the kimchi was placed next to the sea bowl, and the pickled radish without any external ingredients was crispy and delicious in itself, and put one in the mouth that was filled with braised pork rice and grilled fish, which was still blended by crispness and greasy, and finally made me feel that my whole soul was sublimated。
Combined with the fragrant vegetable soup, let the freshness of the vegetables scrape away the aftertaste in the mouth, and escort the food warmly all the way to the stomach, and in the cold night, the warmth begins to fill the whole body.
After a bite of rice, what could be better than picking up a roast chicken, biting off the fatty and tender meat, using the sweetness to clear the slightly lacking feeling in the taste, and satisfying the last trace of craving in the stomach, this feeling is really beautiful!
This feeling can be enjoyed by the soldiers of the garrison, and it is this kind of truly luxurious logistical supply that has created a powerful garrison army, the combat effectiveness of the officers depends on the way up, and the combat effectiveness of the soldiers depends on perfect logistics, Napoleon's theory is the same in any history of warfare.
At this time, the coalition barracks have long lost the high morale at the beginning, although they did not feel that they could not beat the garrison because of this meal, but they lost their respect for their commander in their hearts, if it is a tailwind battle, if it is a headwind, I believe that this is the soldiers will not have too many ideas to fight to the death for their lords.
This turmoil finally affected De Cres in the noble tent, as the supreme leader of the coalition army, and the only one who thought he was the Grand Duke, De Cres could be said to be wholeheartedly focused on the battle against Lelouch, the changes outside the tent De Cres did not realize at first, but when it was too quiet outside for too long, De Cres finally reacted, he felt the atmosphere outside was wrong, and he didn't even need a squire, and walked out alone.
The moment Decres walked out of the tent, even the most sluggish people reacted that things were not easy.
The soldier's silent action of eating meat and drinking soup could not see the slightest excitement, and when he bit down on that bite of the meat, he breathed the aroma in the air violently, Declan followed and asked, shocked from the bottom of his heart!
"Lelouch, you are so shameless!"
As the Grand Duke and the regent of the empire, how could De Cres not understand what the soldiers were thinking at this time, but De Cres did not have the slightest way, the team of 70,000 people was too much, although De Cres would not be able to satisfy 70,000 people if he played with all his might, half a chicken a day per person, but the problem was from beginning to end De Cress never thought of doing this, please, it would be good to give you mud legs some meat, and dare to think about eating chickens?!
Decrees's idea is also the idea of the vast majority of nobles, not that it can't be done, but that it can't be imagined!
But when the other side does it, when its own enemy does it, this gap between the soldiers appears, and it greatly blows the authority and control of the officers over the soldiers.
The only thing Declan can think about at this moment is tomorrow's battle, and everything must go well, if there is a slight fluctuation, the entire coalition army seems to be outnumbered, but it will be unstable in an instant.
At this point, Declan finally had a trace of regret!
