Chapter 341: Zhang Wen picks up cheap online

Three days later, Liu Tao originally thought that Zhang Wen would send a partial division, about three or five thousand people, to take over these prisoners, but he didn't expect that the other party actually brought the main force over.

"Is there anything new about the thief?" Liu Tao had to find Zhang Wen and ask him about it.

"There is no more new information at the moment!" Zhang Wen said, "However, the intelligence shows that the thieves are still in Anding County and have not left, and the 10,000 ambush soldiers encountered by General Liu also show that the main force of the thieves should be here, so the general will come over." ”

The problem is that it doesn't look like you at all...... Didn't you always say that you want to be stable? As a result, he took the initiative to come to the front line or something......

"This side of Qi County is currently safe, and his subordinates have sent people to reconnoiter within twenty miles of the surrounding area, and no enemy troops have been found." Liu Tao could only tell the situation on his side.

The key is to get the captives quickly, hey! Do you still plan to let them eat and drink under their own command? !

Fortunately, the first thing Zhang Wen did later was to send someone to count the prisoners. It's just that Liu Tao felt that he went to count, not only to receive, but also to confirm whether he had casually captured some people and pretended to be prisoners.

If he sent someone else, Liu Tao was really worried that someone would deliberately hack him, but it was Huangfu Song who sent out, then it would be another matter. The existence of this battle-hardened general, known as the 'last famous general of the late Han Dynasty', can tell at a glance whether these captives are ordinary people.

Those who have killed people and robbed things have different eyes from those insensitive people.

"No problem, all captives are thieves." About half an hour later, Huangfu Song came back to his life.

"It's just very unreasonable...... Zhang Wen is still a little unacceptable, "Why did you defeat 10,000 people, and only lose 200 war horses?" ”

"This subordinate has asked a few prisoners a little." Huangfu Song knew that Zhang Wen had such doubts, so he was prepared in advance, "It seems that it is impossible to make a fire on a rainy day, and they encountered a surprise attack in the middle of the night, and they don't know who is friendly and who is the enemy at all, so after paying a certain number of casualties, the first thought is to run quickly, and if they can't run, they can only surrender." ”

It was also because of this that the cavalry could not see the road, and often bumped into something while charging, so the horses broke their legs.

The cavalry charged on a rainy night, and there was another point, that is, these thieves were not actually the main force of the thieves. The main force is only 2,000, and the remaining 8,000 are the people who have not been in the gang for a long time.

Something bad must have been done, such as breaking through a few dock forts, and then burning and looting or something, which is already impure.

"I see...... Zhang Wen felt a little better after knowing the result. The vision was unclear on a rainy night, and the thief was caught off guard by being killed, and it was understandable that there was such a result.

Especially according to Huangfu Song, many of these thieves can't see the road in the dark, and such a situation often occurs in the poor. Blindfolded is a strange disease, but all the people at the bottom have a high probability of suffering from it.

"But why, the soldiers under Liu Tao don't have this problem?" Zhang Wen still raised questions.

"In response to this question...... It seems to be because of this. Huangfu Song took out a small bottle, "The subordinate asked Liu Tao, and he said that the liver powder in this bottle can treat the blindfolded birds...... But he's talking about 'night blindness'. ”

Zhang Wen took the bottle, opened it and looked at it, the dark red powder, and sniffed it closely, a fishy smell of liver. After hesitating for a moment, I poured out some and licked it a little, but the taste was acceptable, with a slight feeling of oil.

"This thing can't be made from animal livers that are cooked and then dried and ground in the sun, right?" Zhang Wen looked at Huangfu Song.

"That's true, it seems that since the beginning of the army in Zhuo County, Liu Tao has asked his subordinates to take this thing regularly." Huangfu Song nodded, in fact, he was also a little excited at the moment, after all, many soldiers in the army also had the trouble of 'night blindness'.

Bonfires had to be set up all over the night to gauge if any enemies were approaching. Even so, you can only see the illuminated range of the campfire, and farther away, you can't see it. In fact, not only the newly recruited soldiers, but also the old soldiers have a lot of this problem.

I know from Liu Tao that the blindfold is something missing in the human body, so it suffers. As long as it is supplemented, then it can be treated, and the liver of animals is the food that contains the most of this thing, and in addition, carrots also contain a lot of this thing.

Carrots have been introduced at this time, but they have not yet been planted on a large scale. It has not been improved, so it is not much bigger than fresh ginseng, and there are many key fibers, and it tastes no different from winter bamboo shoots.

"Immediately find a way to get a batch to ......" Zhang Wen also realized this and hurriedly ordered.

"Here's the problem, the liver in the Sanfu area has been acquired by Liu Tao." Huangfu Song replied helplessly, "Few people buy the liver itself, and the poor can't afford it, so the butcher doesn't eat it himself, at most he gives it away...... There is not much stock. ”

Fortunately, some livestock will be slaughtered every day, and you can get some liver, but it is not realistic to make it into liver powder, and it is not realistic to invest it in the army on a large scale, so it is better to find a way to get a batch of carrots.

"This time, report to Your Majesty and see if you want a large-scale acquisition." Zhang Wen thought about it and said, in fact, he has been here for so long, and he has not made an inch, and he is also worried that the court will have opinions.

It's good now, 10,000 thieves have been killed, which is not too good, but it is not too bad.

The problem here was solved, and soon Zhang Wen was attracted by other things, that is, several maps provided by Liu Tao, from Qi County, through Yinpan County or Quail County, to Linjing County, several copies of the maps.

"These pictures are ......" Zhang Wen found Liu Tao, feeling a little excited.

The most important thing in fighting a war is the map, the information of the battlefield, but what he can get is only the general map of Anding County, and the map of each county, but he can't get it.

"The last general has been idle for the past few days, so he sent someone out to investigate." Liu Tao is serious nonsense, the kind that doesn't bring red faces.

In the past few days, he has relied on the 'insight of the wind dragon' to look at the surrounding situation, and then painted wildly in the camp, and this style of painting has improved a lot.

"Okay, good ......" Zhang Wen was suddenly overjoyed, "Just for these maps, General Liu is also a great achievement!" ”

He really liked these maps, and drew the general terrain of the mountains and rivers, which meant that the army was not only more convenient to travel, but also able to use the terrain to deal with the thieves.

Anyway, he absolutely didn't believe that a thief could have the ability to draw such a picture.

"Where, where, carving insect skills, the general should not be so praised." Liu Tao smiled, of course, if it could really be regarded as a credit, then he wouldn't mind.

"So......" Zhang Wen obviously didn't intend to let Liu Tao go like this, "Now that the map is ready, I don't know what General Liu thinks about this thief?" ”

"Meow, you're waiting for me here!?" Liu Tao complained directly in his heart.
