The soldiers who searched the other rooms reported even better news, and there were also chests of hidden treasure in the other rooms, and there were quite a few of them. {〔〈 八((一(〔网 ?〉}.〉8?1]

Guan Feng, Ma Jinzhong, Xiao Yang, Li Guo, Zhou Yuji and others were all elated. Suddenly with so much wealth, anyone will be so happy that they can't sleep.

But of course, Moli would not keep this wealth for himself. At present, the new Liao army is far away from the base camp in Liaodong, and it is also very far away from Lingchuan City and Hequ City, and all kinds of material allocation and supply must rely on high and submersible release.

The grain and grass brought by the new Liao army from the Daling River have been almost consumed, but Gao Qiqian has not yet intended to provide food and grass supplies. asked Yu Chengli during the day, and he also passed perfunctorily with haha. It seems that Gao Qiqian really can't be overestimated, and this guy really dares to cut off the money and food of the new Liao army.

In addition to the newly recruited nearly 4,000 rebel prisoners, the team has reached more than 6,000 people, although a lot of grain and grass left by the rebels were also captured when recovering Putai, but for this team of thousands of people, the daily expenses are a lot of money.

In this way, this unexpected wealth is very important and timely!

Early the next morning, Mo Li gathered the whole army to pack up and began to march in the direction of Dengzhou.

Nearly 4,000 captives and soldiers of the New Liao Army, under the command of officers at all levels, sorted out the supplies of the army, and behaved very obediently and cooperatively, although they were thousands, they did not have any friction with the officers and men of the New Liao Army, and no one dared to escape at night.

This also confirmed Mo Li's thoughts before deciding to kill Eleven.

When the mortals should have been slaughtered, they survived, and the captives at this time would be grateful to the enemy who had slaughtered their companions, and began to subconsciously think about the other party, and unconsciously integrated themselves into the other party.

The captives who survived the catastrophe knew that they had no other way to live except to follow the New Liao Army from then on.

Everything was unfolding in the direction he expected, which made Mo Li feel much more at ease. Although this method is too ruthless and has always been criticized by historians, it is an effective means to quickly improve the strength of the team at some times.

Otherwise, relying on the 2,000 people of the New Liao Army alone, how could they fight against Kong Youde's 100,000 army?

With the addition of nearly 4,000 infantry, the march naturally slowed down. In order to prevent these infantry from falling behind or escaping, Moli split some of the original soldiers of the New Liao Army into the infantry battalion, which was responsible for directing and teaching the recruits.

In the evening, the army camped on the hillside outside Luoshuizhuang, twenty miles outside the city of Guangrao.

Xiao Yang asked puzzledly: "General, there is Guangrao City in front, it's freezing this day, why don't we rush to the city to spend the night?" ”

Mo Li shook his head and said, "We're going to fight, not to go on vacation to enjoy, so many people go to the city, it will definitely disturb the people, it's not necessary." Besides, it's not certain whether the prince of Guangrao County welcomes us! ”

"A local seventh-grade official, do you dare to show us a look?" Xiao Yang snorted.

"If you can, try not to disturb the people! Let a sleeping dog lie. However, Guangrao City still has to enter, make up for it! Mo Li shouted.

"The last general!" Li Guo, who was instructing his subordinates to set up camp, hurriedly ran over.

At this time, it will be late, the autumn wind is bleak, and the cold wind is mixed with large and small snowflakes from time to time.

Mo Li dusted off the snowflakes that had fallen on his body, and said to Li Guo: "Make up for it, you can take some people to Guangrao City and ask the government for some grain and grass!" ”

The will of the imperial court is to let Mo Li's subordinates obey Gao Qiqian's command and dispatch, and it stands to reason that Gao Qiqian should be responsible for providing grain and grass materials, but the soldiers sent to Gao Qiqian to ask for grain and grass reported that most of Gao Qiqian's grain and grass were lost when they encountered rebels outside Putai City, and they have not been able to raise grain and grass yet, and the new Liao army has to solve it by itself.

Mo Li asked the captives and knew that they didn't capture much grain and grass when they encountered Gao Qiqian that day, indicating that Gao Qiqian was lying.

In other words, Gao Qiqian was determined to starve the New Liao Army to death.

The generals were indignant when they learned the news, and they all took the opportunity to take revenge and fell into the ground, what a despicable bastard shameless villain.

Some people even said that since Gao Qiqian doesn't give us food and grass, then why should we work hard for him to suppress the rebels, it is better to go back to Liaodong, reorganize the army, and continue to fight the Tartars.

Mo Li thought that he could not return to Liaodong at this time, otherwise Gao Qiqian would inevitably report that he did not obey the military order and withdrew the army without authorization.

Some people also suggested that they should report to the imperial court and impeach Gao Qiqian for not having food and grass.

This suggestion was also rejected. Moli guessed that Gao Qiqian would definitely block his contact with the outside world, and if he didn't say whether he could gain the trust of the imperial court if he said something, he might not be able to reach Jingshi at all.

Since Gao Qiqian doesn't give food and grass, then we can't starve to death! We have come all the way from Liaodong to help you Shandong and Denglai exterminate the rebels, shouldn't your local state capital provide a little grain and grass materials.

Li Guo went into the city with the official document of the Ministry of War to find the magistrate of the county to collect grain and grass, who knew that the Guangrao magistrate heard that he was here to collect grain and grass, and hurriedly waved his hand, and gave a bite back, saying that he could not help.

Li Guo was patient and repeatedly begged Guangrao County to provide some grain and grass, even if it was enough to eat for two or three days.

But Nazhi County saw that the person who came to ask for food was just a guerrilla, and put on a stand of being a superior civil official, and ignored Li Guo.

Li Guo asked again and again with a cheeky face, and the magistrate was a little impatient, and said: "There is really no food, Master Jun, let me tell you honestly, the grain in our county has been requisitioned and transferred by the people in Jingying!" ”

"Jingying?"

"It's not like anything, I just came here at noon, oops, these years, it's the people who are suffering!"

A few small officials next to him even complained about it, implying that when the rebels crossed the border, he Guangrao County relied on the city to be strong, but he could also avoid disasters, and now it is good, as soon as the official army comes, he Guangrao County will be in the treasury.

Natural disasters, **, disasters on disasters, and the people are suffering.

The county prince, the lord Bo and the master of the county all had bitter faces, and Li Guo's anger slowly disappeared, he was originally rebelling with his uncle Li Zicheng because he couldn't live in poverty, and naturally knew how difficult and difficult the life of the people without food was like.

couldn't collect food, and he couldn't tear off his face to plunder the army, so Li Guo could only go back to recover his life.

After listening to Li Guo's narration, Mo Li couldn't help sighing, if the place doesn't give him grain and grass, he can't rob it, in that case, wouldn't he also become a rebel.

If he really sent troops to rob the people of food, not only would his conscience be uneasy, but I am afraid that he would also give Gao Qi an excuse to exterminate him, so until the mountains and rivers are exhausted, Mo Li will never take this desperate road.

Nazhi County said that the grain was transferred by Jingying, whether it was a pretext or the truth, at least it showed one thing: Gao Qiqian secretly played ghosts, and did not let Moli get food.

The boss didn't give food and grass, and he went to the prefecture and county to recruit and was also rejected.

Fortunately, the grain seized in Putai is enough for ten heads and eight days, otherwise I really don't know how to hold on, but I hope I can hold out until the army arrives and capture Dengzhou!

The wind and snow were getting heavier and heavier, and the soldiers went back to the camp early after dinner. Although it was a snowy night, Mo Li did not dare to take it lightly at all, and ordered his subordinates to send rangers to scout the sentry and spread a guard ten miles away.

Several sentries were also sent to the camp to patrol back and forth, not daring to be careless at all. The snowy night was bitterly cold, but fortunately the army had cotton clothes, and the rebels were looting, and those captives naturally did not lack cotton clothes.

But even if you have cotton clothes, you still feel cold when you stand outside in the snowy night.

No, tonight, the chief of the pro-military battalion who is in charge of the security guard of the big tent in the first half of the night, Zhou Guoliang, is patrolling along the periphery of the big tent with eight soldiers of the pro-military battalion, because his wife Liang Peijun also lives in the general's big tent, in order to avoid the guards of the pro-soldiers are twenty or thirty steps away from the big tent.

Suddenly, Zhou Guoliang faintly heard Liang Peijun's delicate voice coming from the big tent: "...... Husband...... Ah, tap ...... Ouch ......"

Zhou Guoliang is twenty-six years old this year, once married a wife, and later his wife and children were killed in the battle of the Tartars besieging Beijing the year before last, and his wife was insulted by the Tartars and committed suicide, so Zhou Guoliang can be described as a deep hatred of the Tartars, and he hated them to the bone.

Whenever the night is quiet, Zhou Guoliang will think of his wife and son, and at this time, his hatred for Tartar deepens again.

Sometimes, Zhou Guoliang will also think of the love of fish and water with his wife after getting married, and he will love and love, so he will know what is going on when he hears Liang Peijun's coquettish moan, and his face suddenly turned red.

Not only did Zhou Guoliang hear it, but most of his subordinates also heard it, among them, one of them, Zhu Tai was only sixteen or seventeen years old, he was considered a half-grown child, and he may not know how to love men and women, after all, he was young, and blurted out: "Brother Zhou, why do you say that Mrs. is calling?" Could it be that the general punished his wife? But Madame doesn't seem to have done anything wrong......"

"Shut up!" Zhou Guoliang was very embarrassed, and shouted angrily in a low voice: "You little bastard, what nonsense!" You all remember, give this to Lao Tzu rotten in the stomach! ”

"Oh, yes!" Although Zhu Tai didn't understand why Zhou Guoliang was not allowed to say it himself, he saw that Zhou Guoliang's face was very stern and ugly, not like a joke, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to say anything at the moment.

Besides, even if the general is "punishing" his wife, this is also the general's private matter, how can they be a little soldier?

The other soldiers were as unclear as Zhu Tai, and some knew it, but no one dared to speak again.

A few soldiers pricked up their ears and wanted to listen to the truth, but Zhou Guoliang kicked over and scolded: "Don't listen to what you shouldn't hear!" Spread out a little for Lao Tzu, and then take twenty steps forward to be vigilant! ”

The soldiers hurriedly lined up, and then left the tent twenty paces to stand on guard. However, in the snowy night, there still seemed to be a faint sound of Liang Peijun's moaning, which seemed to be absent......
