The Great Song Dynasty conquered the Liao Dynasty's Xijin Mansion, which was a major victory, especially before the Chinese New Year, and made the soldiers proud in their hearts, Zhao Zhen attached great importance to the sense of honor of the soldiers, and the soldiers relied on the sense of honor to live.

The fundamentals of the difference between the current military and the previous ones are also in this seemingly insignificant and even invisible and intangible thing.

After all, most of the 100,000 troops who went out were conscripts rather than recruits, and material rewards such as military salaries were originally small, and the Northern Expedition was still at the end of the year, and the homesickness in his heart was even more urgent, but Zhao Zhen happened to use this to improve the greatness in the hearts of the soldiers.

The New Year is approaching, the army has taken the Yanyun Heavy Land Xijin Mansion, this sense of honor and mission makes the young soldiers stir in their hearts, even if the army is out for the New Year, there are no complaints, but they feel very great and noble in their hearts, even Xia Zhu, the supervisor who is not smiling on weekdays, has a rare laugh, every time he meets the soldiers are kind greetings, not at all like the previous Qinggao.

With the arrival of the New Year, the footsteps of the army suddenly stopped, there was no way, even Zhao Zhen couldn't let the soldiers fight during the New Year, at least let this year pass safely.

Cai Boyu and Bao Zheng's team galloped all the way to Xijin Mansion, and the two still complained to each other about not dealing with each other, their speed was a little slow, and they were only able to catch up with the grain and grass supplies to Liangxiang.

"Huh! I wouldn't have given them a carriage if I had known! It's so fast that I almost didn't catch it. Xia Laoqi will definitely blame me! ”

Bao Zheng laughed angrily, turned his head to Cai Boyu and said, "Why do you have the face to say such a thing?" People use horses, and you, a good horse known as a big eater, can't catch up? It's not that you've been delayed on the road for too long, I said that the merchants and supplies will spread the auspiciousness of the city of Tokyo, and you have to show off there, or you will catch up with the convoy long ago! ”

Cai Boli pulled the reins with one hand and pointed to his nose with the other and said, "I'm showing off...... I'm showing off?! How can you say such things with a shy face, I don't just use your free time to preach when you arrange people! Wouldn't it be better for you to arrange for those officials to go to every place you go, and go directly to Xijin Mansion as I said, and then go to various places after receiving errands from the officials after the New Year? It's not that I said that you have a black face, and it is not appropriate to let the family work when it is about to be the New Year! ”

Bao Zheng's face is not black, but he is a white-faced scholar, but in Cai Boyu's opinion, he has a black face all day long and feels as if everyone owes him 800 hangings, so he naturally calls him that.

"Hmph, what do you know? The more it is the New Year's Festival, the more things happen, those who have just stopped the war on the land recovered by my Great Song Dynasty, it must be re-governed, the small officials in my hands are all diligent in their work, and they will cooperate with the garrison to put the local governance in order, and besides, they are willing to go, I am not persecuted! ”

Cai Boyu scoffed at Bao Zheng's explanation: "I also volunteered to go to ...... People are trying to avoid you! ”

"You...... Unreasonable! ”

"You're unreasonable! Okay, don't say so much, there is Liangxiang City in front, you and I should be able to catch up with the convoy, anyway, we will rest when we arrive, right? ”

Bao Zheng nodded and said, "It's okay, the old man has been bumpy for a long time and his body is tired...... This is Yangou City, not called Liangxiang City, the Qin Dynasty was the beginning, because the people and things in the place are good and named. Later, the county was moved to the west bank of the holy water. In the fifth dynasty, Zhao Dejun built Yangou City in today's place to prevent Khitan robbery. If you don't learn, you can't do it! ”

Cai Boyu was just a little relieved by Bao Zheng's last sentence, pointed at Bao Zheng and couldn't speak for a long time, and finally snorted angrily and sped up towards Yangou City, provoking Bao Zheng to shout at him from behind......

Peng Qi was ordered to come to meet the dispatch of materials, even he didn't expect the supply of the Great Song Dynasty to be so fast, this time the supply convoy was huge, there were more than 1,000 carriages to complete the supply of the army at one time, the speed is so fast, the number is unprecedented!

The entire Yangou City was filled with supplies, and all kinds of pickled meat were piled up in a corner of the city like a hill, and the onlookers were hula and swallowed, which was only one-fifth of the meat, and the rest was still in the car and was not carried down.

Not only meat, but also vegetables and dry food that are conducive to storage and transportation, the favorite food in the army is pork stewed vermicelli, which is beautifully cooked in a large pot, enough for a commanding soldier to eat.

Peng Qi watched a group of children staring at the hill as if they were swallowing saliva, sighed a little and said to the pro-soldiers on the side: "Divide a little meat and give the people here a peaceful New Year......

The soldiers looked at Peng Qi and said, "What about other towns......

Peng Qi glared at him: "This is fate, who let them not catch up with ......"

The reason why Liangxiang is called Liangxiang is because the people here are kind, and the objects are secondary, after all, the things made by people who are kind to the people will not be bad, which is also an important reason why the Great Song Dynasty regards this place as a material distribution center, even if the people starve to death at the door of their homes, they will not steal military supplies, for them the reputation of Liangxiang is more important than their lives.

Only the child innocently looked at the food and bit his tongue to saliva......

When a pot of fragrant pork stewed vermicelli is set on the street, the sound of wafting out makes the children even more unbearable, and the gurgling saliva is like a frog by the pond, and the eyes of the Song Dynasty soldiers and the poor people who transport grain are sour.

When the Khitan army attacked Liangxiang, they burned down the local granary to cut off the back road, but at the same time, they also left a disaster for the people.

Although the Great Song Dynasty took over the city defense here, there was no surplus of food, and only when the grain and grass crossed the border could they get supplies, and the defenders here did not dare to use the supplies privately, so they could only save a little from the army to support the local people, but the people here were too resolute, and many people starved to death at home and did not want to beg...... By the time they were discovered, they had already become stiff.

Peng Qi's move attracted many people to come, and he stood on the table and shouted: "This is the reward of the Great Song Emperor, you can eat as much as you want, don't worry about what someone will say, this is the reward you deserve!" ”

The respected old man looked at the boiling cauldron of thick oil red sauce and the white rice, and asked in a trembling voice: "How can the people of the Great Song Dynasty be rewarded by the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty?" ”

Peng Qi laughed and said: "My husband said that he laughed, Liangxiang has been collected by my Great Song Dynasty into China, and from now on, you will be my Great Song people, and there will be officials who will come to register for you in the near future, and the register and account book in the county government of this Liangxiang will also become my Great Song Dynasty, and you will have to pay grain and taxes to my Great Song Dynasty in the future!" ”

Seeing the old man hesitating, Peng Qiyou added: "You can't have one less!" ”
