Chapter 484: Killing the Horse
Zirou? How much forage is there in Jingzhou? Zhang Jie asked.
Kuai Liang Dao: There is no pasture in Jingzhou, and there are few horses, so farmers generally harvest a little crop straw after harvesting the crops in the fields. Most of them are also burned as firewood.
Even if you collect it, it's not much!
The horses in the army also ate hay and miscellaneous grains in winter. But the lord's war horses are too many. Even if you collect all the forage, it won't last a few days, and if you let the horses eat food, it will be too wasteful, and there won't be so much food supply!
Zhang Jie said: It is definitely not possible to let horses eat food, even if a horse eats 20 catties a day, then 50,000 horses are 1 million catties a day! All the grain in Jingzhou can't withstand this hole!
Wenhe, what do you suggest! Zhang Jie asked!
Jia Xu thought to himself, of course there is, just kill it. But this kind of thing that offends the soldiers, he won't say it!
Jia Xu said: This gap is too big. There's nothing the old man can do!
Ay! Zhang Jie said: Kill the horse! Leave only 5,000 horses and kill the rest!
What! The lord can't be killed! It's time for a hall fryer. Everyone is in a hurry!
Jia Xu thought to himself, fortunately, the old man didn't say it, I had expected this result a long time ago!
Military generals love horses and treat them like soldiers. Some generals cried urgently, what a good war horse, how difficult it is to train one!
Zhang Jie said angrily: Shut up Lao Tzu! What a noise! Kill the horse, you think I don't feel sorry? But if you don't kill the horses, what do you feed? Feed the horses?
Where do we go to find food? Could it be that the Hu people are going to rob it? Besides, with such a big number, who has so much food for you to grab?
If you don't kill it now, the horses will only lose fat and starve to death! Instead of starving the horse, kill it!
Xia Zhongdao: Lord, can we send the horse to Luoyang?
Zhang Jie shook his head and said: Even if it is sent to Luoyang, Luoyang does not have so much forage. You and Gao Ran brought 60,000 of these horses. Where in the Central Plains can 60,000 war horses! By it is winter. It's better if it's spring.
Brothers, killing horses is a helpless move! As long as we pacify the world, we won't need too many war horses in the future.
Besides, even if we don't have these war horses, there are still a lot of horses waiting for us to ride in Youzhou! So we won't be short of horses in the future. I believe brothers, even without horses, they can win battles!
Cai Mao said: Lord, I have a way to keep some horses!
Oh! You name it! Zhang Jie said!
Why don't you give these horses to the people outside the city and let them go to the fields to graze them! If you have a horse in a household, you should be able to feed it, right? There is also dead grass on the mountain, so let the people go and graze it. It's a shame to kill!
Well, this method is feasible, so starting from Xiangyang, each household will send a horse.
Lao Tzu doesn't want the people's money, nor does he use their food, and he sends it all for free, so he is considered to be filial piety to the people of Xiangyang. Let the people use it for themselves.
Zirou, you arrange manpower and let our soldiers send horses, and make it clear to the people. Don't want the money, and don't want them to pay it back. It's almost the New Year, even if it's a New Year's gift from me Zhang Jie to the people.
But I'm going to say that whoever dares to collect enough of these horses in private. That is a rebellion, and the three clans will not be merciful! This is actually for these Jingzhou land snakes. They have to be warned not to fight the horse idea.
Promise!
Xu Huang, it won't take so much to send it to the people, it's all sent, and there will be war horses everywhere in the future, which will also be a trouble! It doesn't make some people think of beating these horses.
Kill 40,000 horses first, keep 10,000 horses! Wen Yuan's side, I guess Wen Yuan will also kill horses.
Promise!
Brothers, let's take a more open view and take a long-term view. As long as our brothers are still alive, there will be more horses in the future, and when Jiangnan is pacified, Jie will take you to the Xiongnu and the Western Regions, and then you will have as many blood and horses as you want! The big husband is all over the world. How many horses are there?
Zhang Yan, Gao Ran, Lv Xiang. You will start to bring the troops back tomorrow, and Jingzhou will not need so many soldiers and horses for the time being. In the future, the main combat was the naval army.
Promise!
Zhang Yan walked to Zhang Yan's side and said, "Brother, go back to Luoyang first to see Yu'er and then go back."
Zhang Yan nodded.
Ladies and gentlemen, the matter of the horses and the grass is now settled. The next step was to send troops to Jingnan and attack Jiangdong.
Cai Mao, King Gu appointed you as the Governor of my Great Wei Water Division. Command all the ships of the Mariners. At the same level as the history of thorns!
Promise!
Zhang Jiedao: In addition, if there are any other naval talents in Jingzhou, you can also recruit yourself. Jay gives you that power.
Cai Maodao: Lord, Zhang Yun is not bad, but he is Liu Qi's cousin, I don't know if the lord is willing to use it?
Zhang Jie smiled: What's not to do? Since it is recommended by Deju, let Zhang Yun be your deputy general and assist you.
Promise!
Deju, you have to integrate all the naval warships in Jingzhou, and let's go to the Jiangxia area to assemble. Jie wants to send troops to Jingnan immediately!
Promise!
Tibetan tyrant! Don't go to Nanyang, let you be the governor of Jingzhou now, and you will stay in Xiangyang!
Promise! Thank you.
The rest of the brothers, let's rest in Xiangyang for three days, and after three days, we will go to Jiangxia by land and water.
Promise!
Zirou, De Jue stayed, in fact, it was dispersed!
Promise!
After everyone left. Zhang Jie said: I left the two of you because I wanted you to meet a few people with Gu.
Kuai Liang Dao: Who is the lord going to see?
Wen Ping, Huang Zhong. Zhang Jie said.
Deju, they're all in Xiangyang now, right? You lead the way!
Promise!
Zhang Jie came to Wenpin's Mansion first, and Wenpin is also a big family in Xiangyang. But Wen Ping is a humble person and is more loyal. After Liu Qi surrendered, he had no choice but to go home to rest.
Entering the Humanities Mansion, Wen Ping met Zhang Jie and his party in the living room.
Zhang Jiedao: Zhongye has a skill, but he didn't play it for a while. The defeat of Fancheng is not the responsibility of the general! Jay personally visited his home today. It is hoped that Zhongye will invest in Jie's account and contribute to the domination of the world.
Wen Pingdao: How can the general of the defeated army be brave? Hired will not be able to defend their land. A minister cannot support his master. There is a negative trust from the ancestors, and I am extremely ashamed! I just want to live in the world, and I have nothing else to ask for!
The general is wrong! The world has been in turmoil for a long time! If the world is not unified again, I don't know how many people will die. Although Jingzhou experienced a big war this time, the time was not long. So there were no dead or injured people, what's wrong with that? Liu Qi is now lonely and has not hurt him. Not in the future.
Zhongye is loyal, but he should be more loyal to the people of Jingzhou, and it is the right way to let the people suffer less from the poison of war and tea.
King Lone decided to let you be the general of Nanjun and guard Jiangling. You'll be in office in two days!
Wen Ping wanted to refuse. Unexpectedly, Zhang Jie left directly. Zhang Jiecai didn't want to talk too much nonsense. Lao Tzu has no shortage of generals now, it's not that I think you kid has some ability, so Lao Tzu won't come to see you. If you really think you're a green onion, don't be embarrassed.
When he came to Huang Zhong's house, the old guy hid in bed and saw no one.
Zhang Jie shouted to Cai Mao: This matter is handed over to you, I heard that Huang Hansheng is also a wasted person.
