Chapter 43: The Beauty Difference

The length of the blade of the bronze sword is mostly no more than 70 centimeters, and most of them are only between 55 and 65 centimeters, which is longer than the watermelon knife, and the distance of hand-to-hand combat is a little farther away.

Due to the needs of war and the needs of reality, assassination is the first fighting skill at present, because stabbing is the easiest to learn, quick to learn, and it is also the most lethal injury, and slashing often cannot directly cause the first time of human body incapacitation, unless cut on the limbs and head. At the same time, the dense formation increases the density between the infantry, shortens the spacing, and the slash will hurt your own people.

The gun is mainly used for assassination, with a length of two and a half meters, or even three meters away, which is conducive to the assassination and impact of the dense boundary array, and is equipped with a short sword for close combat. By the time the enemy does rush in front of you, the gunman is basically already in hand-to-hand combat.

After getting the leather armor and ordnance, putting away the seal letter with him, Bai Liyan (Wei Xian) saw Ding Su again.

"It's like words. From today onwards, you will be responsible for the bookkeeping of grain and straw in and out of the book, and the replenishment of the loss of the baggage reuse. Remember, there must be no discrepancies, and if you make a false report, you will be killed. ”

Hearing this, Bai Liyan finally understood why the surnamed Ding wanted to follow him by himself, it turned out that he was handing over the "heavy responsibility" of killing the head to himself.

"Lord Ding, shouldn't this be Sashi's responsibility?"

"That's true. However, Sashi has been killed in battle, and the alternate Sashi has not yet taken over, so someone needs to fill the position. If you don't want to do it, you can serve as a handyman with them, and you can do it yourself, and the official will have to return to the governor. Ding Su threw down the two volumes of accounts, and Shi Shiran shook his hands and left.

Sashi, that is, the bureaucracy of the official, is both an official and not exactly, basically all officials large and small are equipped with Sashi, and the quartermaster is responsible for the supply of the entire battalion, and there is also Sashi. Therefore, Zuoshi and Quartermaster Ling are all current technical soldiers, literacy is the minimum requirement, and being able to manage money and do arithmetic is hard work.

As soon as Ding Su left, Bai Liyan began to look through the accounts, the accounts handed over by Ding Su were only ledgers, and the detailed accounts were not given to him, obviously the detailed accounts were military secrets.

Just when Bailiyan was looking at the accounts, Ding Su came all the way to the big tent of the Chinese army and saw Zhao Xun, the governor of the Xian army.

The position of the governor of the capital is parallel to the generals of Zhengdong, Zhengbei, Zhengnan, Zhengxi, Zhendong, Zhenbei, Zhennan, and Zhenxi, but it is half a rank lower. Those who hold the position of metropolitan governor are basically about 40 years old, and under special circumstances, the number of years can be lowered, and at the same time, they are governed by the general. It is equivalent in nature to a theater group army, an independent army under its jurisdiction.

A group army is a composite army, so it usually has a brigade headquarters, regiment, and battalion. Division-level units were basically transformed into brigades. The establishment of an independent army under the group army is a gain in the establishment.

Under the Metropolitan Governor, there are left and right governors, left and right governors, left and right commanders, chiefs, centurions, chiefs, and military chiefs, and the commanders of the capital, and the commanders of the capital can theoretically accommodate the establishment of "left and right governors" indefinitely, and at the same time they are dependent on the general's moderation.

However, now Zhao Xun's big governor is already in vain, the whole army is full of less than 7,000 people, and the establishment of a right governor is more than 4,000 people, and now the soldiers of the two governors are less, most of them are still old, weak, sick and disabled and catch strong men, Zhao Xun can only retreat into the deep mountains and old forests to avoid fighting, accumulating strength and waiting for Jiangxi reinforcements.

Ding Su walked quickly to the front, and Zhao Xun was repairing a book, preparing to send someone to cross the river to ask for help.

"General Zhao, more than 300 Xinding people have been added today, but there are still not enough 8,000."

"How about the grain and grass, it can last for a few days."

Zhao Xun put away the letter and asked, Ding Su was embarrassed:

"The current post can only last for two months. And it is still the minimum supply, if there is a war, I am afraid it will only last about forty days. ”

"Yes, there is a shortage of food and soldiers at the moment, and I don't know when the king will be able to quell the civil strife and send troops to help. If it weren't for the death of General Wei Dan, our army would not have been so passive. ”

"General Zhao, but now that the Jin army is strong, it is useless to say more. In order to plan for the present, we should quickly plan for grain and grass, especially this year's drought, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to receive grain next year, so the general should make plans as soon as possible. ”

"The general has already sent people across the river several times, but there is no news. If it weren't for the chaos of ministers and thieves like Fengyangjun and the merchants, I would have such a field as I am today. ”

"General Zhao, forgive me for my humble courage. The crux of the grain and grass matter is still in the population, our Xianguo has been fighting for many years, the loss of strong men is very huge, and the population is dead, then farming is not prosperous, farming is not prosperous, and the national capital is shaken, and the treasury is empty.

At present, it is a war disaster and a natural disaster, and the source of troops has reached the point where it can no longer be revived. ”

Ding Su talked eloquently, and Zhao Xun deeply agreed, he said:

"Alas...... How could I have been unaware of this. If he was not forced to fight, General Ben would not want to see the white-haired man send the black-haired man. ”

"What is the general going to do at the moment? Whether it is a war or a defense, please make a quick decision to the general, and I have a long-term plan for this quartermaster's order. ”

"General Ben has been thinking about it recently, and he is determined to rob the grain and rob the Jin army."

"In the early years of the Jin army, Han He was famous for robbing grain and ambushing, and our army robbed Han He's grain, so wouldn't it be an axe." Ding Su said worriedly, and what he said was basically true.

"General Ben has already sent someone to find out that Han He is trying to capture Feicheng. Feicheng City is strong and deep, the defenders have more than 4,000 people, the population is more than 100,000, and more than 10,000 young and strong people can be used, and it is definitely not possible to capture it in one or two days.

Therefore, Han He was determined to transport grain, and when he could not attack for a long time, he seized the grain and grass halfway, so that he could neither capture Feicheng nor get grain and grass, so he could only retreat, so that the siege of Feicheng could be temporarily relieved. ”

"Then if the movement of our army is discovered by it, it will not set us on fire."

"At that time, our army is in the dark, Han He is in the light, retreat to the deep mountains and old forests, let them in, even if there are many others, what can I do. Drag him to death. If you really can hold off Han He for three or two months, even if General Ben dies in battle, what does it matter. ”

Zhao Xun decided to rob the grain, and after giving instructions to Ding Su, he summoned the governors and captains of the left and right to discuss countermeasures on the matter of robbing the grain. After Ding Su withdrew from the big tent, he first went to the camp to understand the consumption of grain and straw, and then returned to the baggage camp and found that Bailiyan was sleeping in the big tent, Ding Su was very annoyed when he saw this:

"Hey, slacker, get up for this officer!"

Ding Su was furious, and when he raised his leg, he kicked his buttocks. Baili Yan woke up from a dream and was inexplicable:

"Lord Ding, why did you beat someone!"

"This official ordered you to count the cashier, why are you sleeping here with your head covered?"

"The inventory is complete, there is nothing to do, and it is a violation of military rules to take a short rest."

"Hmph, you can also count it clearly, be careful that General Zhao cuts off your head." Ding Su looked incredulous.

"If Lord Ding doesn't believe it, check it yourself, and if it's wrong, give it to Lord Ding at the next person's head."

"Boy, that's what you said!"

Ding Su was in a hurry, and dragged Bai Liyan to the warehouse camp to proofread the account details, and it took more than half an hour to talk before and after, and finally the accounting was exactly right.

"Hey, you kid has some skills. I think you are not a child of an ordinary family, you must be a child of a family in Qiguo, but so. ”

"Since the adults have seen the clues, then put them in the next country and there will be a good reward in the next place."

"Go, this official doesn't have time to talk to you right now. Since you are here, you have to serve the Xian army, and you can only blame you for not coming to Xianguo. When it came to leaving, Ding Su didn't think about it at all, he said: "I can tell you that now is the life and death of Xianguo, and it is the time to employ people." As far as your kid is capable, you will not be allowed to soar in the future. ”

Hearing this, Bai Liyan felt that it was not Ding Su's brain that was broken, but that he was sick in the brain.

The capital of Xianguo has reached this step today, and the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Jin State have occupied almost one-eighth of your territory within a month or two, and they actually say that they will soar in the future.

However, the more Baili Yan didn't believe it, the more energetic this Ding Su became:

"Now there is an opportunity to get ahead, if you do it well, you may not be able to get ahead, are you willing to do it."

Bai Liyan didn't know what to do, and thought to herself, why don't you do such a good errand, and now lie to me, a sixteen or seventeen child. Thinking of this, Bai Liyan said:

"Lord Ding, such a good errand, you better ask another master, I will eat my food with peace of mind, in case the meal guy loses it, this disease can not be cured."

"Hey, I said you kid, why are you talking so badly. Let you go, because the official can afford you, if you don't go, from now on, you will eat one meal a day, see if you go or not. ”

"Okay, for the sake of the rice bowl, it won't be possible to go down, but Lord Ding, you have to agree to the next request first, otherwise you will starve me to death, and I won't go."

"If you have something to say, let it go, let it go, what the hell is going on."

"Give me a bag of dry food, and let me have a full meal, and I'll think about it."

Bailiyan thought that as long as the grain bag was in hand, and he had eaten and drunk enough, when he left the camp, he would be able to escape again. So we can't agree clearly, we have to let the surnamed Ding ask for us.

Ding Su heard Bai Liyan's request, and was immediately happy:

"Hey, you're not afraid of dying, this can't be used to fight, you have to do dry food bags."

"Don't panic when you have food in your hand, if you panic, I can't guarantee that something will happen then, and you don't have to move."

"Okay, you have it. As long as you are willing to go, something will naturally be given to you when the time comes. ”

"Then dare to ask Lord Ding, what is the opportunity to fly Huang Tengda, if it is my turn to be the head of the newcomer, you are not afraid of me running."

"You want to be beautiful. Tell you, General Zhao wants to find a grain official to transport grain, you are willing to go. ”

"Grain officer? Before, Lord Ding didn't seem to say that, saying that he didn't know whether he was dead or alive after waiting for another ten years, it seemed like that. ”

Bai Liyan pondered, there are grain officials in the camp, and letting himself be a grain officer is not a good job, and most of them are not a good errand.

If it is said that the quartermaster order is responsible for all kinds of materials and military supplies, the grain officer is an official who is specifically responsible for the distribution and transportation of grain and grass, and both civilian and military attaches can fill the position, not a technical position. Now it is not child's play to let me, a half-grown "child", act as a grain officer.

Ding Su saw that Bailiyan was not fooled, so he threatened instead:

"If you don't go, from today onwards, your daily meal will be reduced to one meal."

"You!" Bailiyan was helpless: "Okay, just go, I'm afraid you won't succeed!" ”

At this time, Bai Liyan finally realized the personal feeling of hunger, hunger can not only make people starve to death, but can make you crazy, hungry crazy, hungry crazy dare to do anything, as long as you can kill people and sell goods for a bite to eat, you can also rebel and sell your life. If it weren't for the sake of the job, would I have been able to get to where I am today?
