"You guys are really—stubbornly." Zhang Xiaowu couldn't cry or laugh, "Why can't we go together?" Why can't you run first? ”

Hu Lidao: "This ...... Without your order, how dare we leave the epidemic village, Huang Sheng asked us to go with him before, but everyone dared to leave. ”

Cao Li said on the side: "Captain, weren't you scolded away?" He also said that his old eggs were useless......"

Hu Li hurriedly gagged him and said, "How can I say such indecent words, don't talk nonsense, I have read books." Well, it's half a reader. ”

Everyone was disdainful for a while, didn't everyone have seen Huang Sheng and others red-eyed by him scolding, and they were still reading people like this? !

Three days ago, the scouts of the Sixth Regiment caught some defeated soldiers one after another and immediately reported them to Cheng Chu, who immediately discussed with Zhou Senjun what to do. Zhou Wenqi immediately suggested that all the defeated soldiers should be captured in the epidemic village, guarded by the battalion of dead soldiers and 5,000 soldiers, and be ready to act at any time, he estimated that the Inuyi army was about to go south, and if he acted in a hurry, he was afraid that everything would be over.

The order was transmitted to the epidemic village, Hu Sanwan, Hu Li and Shen Lindong were dumbfounded, how should this be good, Hu Sanwan is not a person who does great things, naturally looked at Hu Li and Shen Lindong, and Hu Li only listened to Zhang Xiaowu alone, without Zhang Xiaowu's order, he didn't know how to act. Although Shen Lindong had some ideas, he didn't dare to act rashly, and the three of them had no idea for a while, so they had to obey the military order and accept the prisoners.

However, what they did not expect was that in just one day, the 6th Regiment captured more than 1,000 prisoners, and the next day it captured 2,000 prisoners.

By last night, 5,000 defeated soldiers were imprisoned in the plague village, and then Huang Sheng rushed here and asked all the sergeants to prepare to evacuate Mucheng, and the generals were shocked. Hu Li asked Huang Sheng to show the official document, how could Huang Qi come up with the official document, this was just a verbal military order from the general. Hu Sanwan and the others suddenly quit, and now that Master Zuo is not there, Huang Sheng wants to take away the Dead Soldier Battalion, isn't this obviously wanting to seize power? So Hu Li jumped up and scolded, that Huang Qi originally wanted to suppress it by force, but he didn't think that Shen Lindong and Li Chuncheng pulled out their knives left and right, so frightened that Huang Qi turned his head and ran.

Huang Sheng had no choice but to report to Cheng Chu's Dead Soldier Battalion for non-stop military orders, and at this time Zhou Wenqi suggested again that it was better to let the Dead Soldier Battalion, 5,000 soldiers and the defeated soldiers stick to the wooden city together, so as to leave time for everyone to escape. All the captains supported one after another, so after the generals left, a military order official document came, and the soldiers in the epidemic village jointly took over Mucheng.

At that moment, Hu 30,000 and the three people were at a loss again, and finally had to decide that Shen Lindong would lead 200 soldiers from the dead battalion and 2,000 soldiers to defend the city, and the rest would still stay in the epidemic village and wait for the military order.

After hearing this, Zhang Xiaowu was moved and laughed and cried, moved that the soldiers trusted him so much and were loyal to him, and he had no choice but to have a little dead eyes with everyone, of course, maybe it was this dead heart that moved him.

Zhang Xiaowu hugged everyone one by one and said with emotion: "Generals, at the moment of life and death, you can see the truth." ”

Shen Lindong said with a smile: "The adult does not live up to me, how can I wait for the adult." ”

Immediately, Zhang Xiaowu ordered the soldiers to abandon the epidemic village, and the whole army moved to Mucheng, and Chen Guanxi and Guancheng each led a hundred cavalry to intercept the rout army and collect it with Mucheng.

After all, Zhang Xiaowu personally experienced the battle of Tucheng, and he had a lot of experience in defending the city, especially the Tucheng and Mucheng only had some differences in the size of the city, but the structure of the city was exactly the same as the structure of the city.

The first thing he did after entering the city was to restrain the army, and immediately reorganize all the soldiers, and all the officers of the battalion of dead men were promoted to one rank, and the soldiers were the captains, and the commanders of the regiments were the chiefs, and if there were 800 soldiers in the battalion of dead soldiers, they would immediately become 800 officers. That night, Xiao Kai, Hu Sanwan, Zu Gongmao, and Shen Lindong were busy all night and quickly counted the soldiers, and made a register for the defeated army, and counted all the soldiers a total of 11,000, and the defeated soldiers were 7,000, but many of them were disabled or wounded soldiers and had no combat effectiveness.

"Remove the wounded and disabled defeated soldiers, and the rest of the defeated soldiers are gathered in the army, the title of the dead soldier battalion is not suitable for us now, and we will be the defenders of Mucheng from now on." Zhang Xiaowu took out a roster of plans made in the evening, pointed to the roster and said: "The garrison of Mucheng is divided into five parts, Xiao Kai is responsible for defending the city, Hu Li assists him, and is stationed in the original Kezi battalion; Zu Gongmao was responsible for rectifying the defeated army as a reserve force to defend the city, assisted by Shen Lindong, and stationed in the original Fengzi battalion; Hu Sanwan was responsible for rectifying the logistics baggage, assisted by Wen Ruyu, and was stationed in the baggage camp; Guanchengxi was in charge of the cavalry, supplemented by Chen Guanxi, gathered all the war horses to form a scout army, and stationed the original Xiao cavalry battalion; Li Chuncheng was responsible for organizing the garrison and stationed in the former general's mansion with me. Do you have any objections? ”

"Listen to your lordship." The generals shouted.

Zhang Xiaowu asked again: "Hu Sanwan, how is the baggage in the city?" ”

"Just about to report." Hu Sanwan said busily, he nodded to Wen Ruyu, Wen Ruyu immediately stepped forward and said, "My lord, if you just eat food, we soldiers and people can eat military food in the city and get moldy." ”

Hu Sanwan said: "My lord, the military rations of Mucheng are 500,000 stones." ”

"What?" Everyone was so shocked that they almost fainted to the ground, Zhang Xiaowu also stared, and his scalp was numb and said, "500,000 stones? Why so many? How can there be 500,000 stone grain? ”

Wen Ruyu said: "My lord, these 500,000 stone grains are the rations of the whole army of the Qinglong Army that have been transported from the Central Plains in the past two years, but the Qinglong Army marched too much and quickly occupied the Yajin granary, resulting in an abundance of grain and grass on the front line, so all the grain and grass were temporarily hoarded in Mucheng, so these military rations are more and more ......."

Everyone was excited, and they all looked at Zhang Xiaowu, Zhang Xiaowu was also happy, they really picked up a big bargain, 500,000 stone grain, that is 500,000 stone grain after arriving in Mucheng, no wonder the Qinglong Army annexed more than 20,000 people in this unimportant place in Mucheng, this is the big granary of the Qinglong Army.

Wen Ruyu reminded: "My lord, 500,000 stone grains can't last long. ”

"How?"

Wen Ruyu said: "If you calculate with 20,000 soldiers and civilians in the city, 500,000 stone of grain can only be eaten for six and a half years, and ...... Even if the wooden city is dry, there are about 20 rainy days in the wooden city every year. And the granary of the baggage camp is not the Tianfu granary of Longdu City, and the Mucheng warehouse was built in a hurry, but it was simply treated with moisture and mothproof. Once the grain has been stored for more than three years, many grains become moldy and cannot be eaten. ”

"Why can't you eat it?" Hu Li shouted, "Can't you eat it?" ”

Wen Ruyu shook her head and said, "No, moldy grain is poisonous, and letting the sergeants eat moldy grain is feeding them poison." ”

Zhang Xiaowu touched his chin and asked, "So you mean, this 500,000 stone grain can only be eaten for six years, but can only be kept for three years?" ”

Wen Ruyu said: "If it is well preserved, it can be stored for four years at most, and one-third of the grain will be spoiled if you don't eat it." ”

"There are many ways to consume food, but it can't be left to Inuyi." Zhang Xiaowu said with a smile that he has always respected professionals, since Wen Ruyu, who has been managing the baggage, said this, he no longer doubts, but in any case, this 500,000 stone grain is enough to solve the urgent need. He smiled and clapped his hands, and said to everyone: "Let's go, go to the granary of the baggage camp immediately, I want to see if 500,000 stone is a big lump!" ”

Everyone complained in their hearts: "My lord, the grain is about the pile, no matter the lump, only the is the lump ......"
