Qingfeng Village in the east of Mingyue Village, the leader was originally Zhao Scar, Zhao Scar killed out of the Huang Family Courtyard and disappeared, and the remaining empty village was occupied by Liu Chengdong.

Sanwang Village, which controls the western passage of Mingyue Village, and Black Tiger Village, which is connected to the mountain road north of Mingyue Village. Both of these families participated in Zhao Scarzi's coalition and participated in the attack on Mingyue Village.

After hearing the news that Qingfeng Village was occupied by Liu Chengdong, the three brothers of the Wang family in Sanwangzhai and the father and son surnamed Ge in Heihuzhai were frightened and panicked.

More or less, they have all clashed with Liu Chengdong's villagers, and they know the combat effectiveness of Mingyue Village. I was also blinded by the wealth of Mingyuezhai before, and there were officials and soldiers who directly participated in the war, so I felt that I would not lose money, so I wanted to fish in troubled waters.

Who would have thought that Liu Yidao overturned the tables, and they didn't catch a single hair, not to mention, and suffered heavy losses. So the two worried families reached an agreement and advanced and retreated together, while fighting their own little Jiujiu.

Another two weeks passed, and I thought that Liu Yidao had suffered heavy casualties and wanted peace talks. But as soon as the two families were about to relax their vigilance, they received the news that Mingyuezhai sent troops.

The one who should have come still came, and although the heads of the two stockades were apprehensive, they finally breathed a sigh of relief, and a stone fell to the ground in their hearts.

You Liu Chengdong is very fierce, but Lao Tzu is not a vegetarian! Lao Tzu resisted with deep ditches and high walls, even if he couldn't beat it, it was a big deal... Run away, Xunyang Mountain is so big!

Then I heard that this time it was not Liu Yidao who led the troops in Mingyuezhai, nor Liu Yuan and Liu Sheng, nor Xiong Dachun, but a few cubs under twenty. The leaders of the two cottages are angry, they can't beat the old ones and the small ones!

The two families were preparing to run away, but because of this news, they were full of fighting spirit and began to count their weapons and repair the wall. They're going to fight off these little cubs, and then they're going to draw a line to negotiate or... Then he ran away.

Just kidding, Liu Chengdong obviously wants to use himself to practice for the cubs, and he will definitely play by himself in the future.

……

The family members of the two villages miscalculated. Liu Chengdong never asked about this matter from beginning to end, and the same was true for other senior executives of the older generation.

In their opinion, Li Xiang went to fight these two stockades, which was simply a matter of nine out of ten, and it was strange that he couldn't attack them.

Liu Chengdong, Xiong Dachun, and Liu Yuan have already put their main energies on training the villagers. The Zhao'an plan is approaching, and the bad habits accumulated by the soldiers in the mountains over the years need to be cleared, and the rules in the army must also be picked up.

Liu Chengdong and several other elders of Mingyue Village also missed the calculation, Li Xiang did not plan to fight these two villages by himself, but handed them over to Xiong Chengwu and Yang Jianchuan, who were the most desperate and meritorious in the battle to defend the village.

When the siege of the coalition army was at its most intense, these two young men led the young men who were not afraid of death to come forward in hand-to-hand combat, and they resisted the attacks of the officers and bandits who had been in battle for a long time, and defended until Liu Chengdong returned.

Li Xiang ordered Xiong Chengwu to lead a hundred old battalions to attack the larger Sanwangzhai in the west, and Qin Zhong and Ding Shihang followed Xiong Chengwu.

Yang Jianchuan led a hundred people to attack the Black Tiger Village in the north, which was dangerously terrained, and Liu Decheng accompanied him.

Liu Decheng, as the first company commander, divided the 120 people of the Zhigong Independent Company into two and assigned them to two roads.

The soldiers knew very well who had the greater credit, so they were convinced by Li Xiang's arrangement.

In the early morning of the day of departure, Li Xiang, Liu Susu and the senior executives of various departments set up wine at the West Gate to see off Xiong Chengwu and Yang Jianchuan.

The two men in iron armor on the outside and leather armor on the inside first saluted their chests, and then took the order flag. The juvenile military judge who drove the ducks to the shelves inspected the order flag and the talisman, then the quartermaster counted the equipment, and finally the military officer handed in the paperwork to check and confirm that everything was okay before setting off......

It was almost noon, and Xiong Chengwu arranged the defense according to the teachings in the school. A guard needs to be set up above the water source, and more than 100 people in the camp form a circle, tree branches are made into horse-blocking exits, and simple trenches are dug up......

Burying the pot to make rice, the firefighters took out a ration of fried rice and precious dried meat and distributed them. Salt is placed in the fried rice, and the ratio of dried rice, dried meat, dried vegetables and salt is set to death, and the taste is not very good, which is more convenient.

The large iron pots are lined up one by one, which can be stacked on top of each other to save space. Five large iron pots were also dismantled and water began to boil.

The porridge was quickly ready, and the soldiers took out the wooden bowls on their bodies and lined up to eat. Wooden bowls, like weapons, are also standardized.

The fireman fills a bowl with a large spoon, presses it, and then scrapes it flat with a wooden plank. This is a soldier's meal, the amount of each soldier is exactly the same, and if it is not enough, you can apply for it, and then bring it yourself.

The scale of Mingyuezhai's troops is not large. The budget of the public middle school is very tight, and the treatment of the soldiers is only better than that of the Da Zhou Xiang army, but at least they can eat enough, and there is some meat every once in a while.

According to the new regulations, only the official generals above the head of the brand are considered generals, and the generals must confirm that the soldiers below them can eat before they can eat, and this rule has been passed down.

As the supreme commander, Xiong Chengwu was the last to serve dinner. After all, with more than a hundred people, bears also have benefits... A small packet of salted meat, and a small packet of pickles!

Don't underestimate pickles, they and kimchi are luxury items that ordinary people in the Great Zhou Dynasty can't ask for after putting enough salt.

It can replenish salt, and it is a vegetable itself, and it can be stored for a long time, so many small and medium-sized landlords will store a large number of pickles in winter. As for the wealthy, it's just an occasional taste.

For soldiers who sweat a lot and are in dire need of salt, pickles are even more precious. Among the military salaries and military funds of the Great Zhou Dynasty, pickles were also an important content.

As usual, Xiong Chengwu only left a little pickled radish, and distributed the rest of the salted meat and pickles to a few brand heads and soldiers he was familiar with, who in turn distributed them to his comrades... In the end, everyone only got a bite, but everyone was satisfied.

Many years later, the economic situation of Mingyuezhai has improved significantly, and the surviving soldiers recall today's scene, and their chests are warm.

Just like the last meal of the officers and generals, the distribution of rations to subordinates has also become a unique way of behavior for the middle and low-ranking officers of the elder battalion.

Xiong Chengwu held a wooden bowl and sat down with Qin Zhong and Ding Shihang.

After sucking a large mouthful of meat porridge, Xiong Chengwu looked at the Sanwang Village, which was two miles ahead as if it were facing a great enemy, "The trenches, the high walls, the arrow houses, and the ones that look like them, what do you think?" ”

After Li Xiang reorganized the Zhai Army, others could be held behind, but the system of pre-war meetings and post-war summary reports was first implemented.

"Ka Cha", a veteran in his early thirties who was appointed as the head of the brand by Li Xiang, ate a bite of the pickled radish handed over by Xiong Chengwu, and the aftertaste was endless. Then he said: "The trench is dealt with by our craftsmen, and their walled walls can be climbed, but the arrow house is not easy to manage." ”

After speaking, the brand head licked the bowl and wiped his mouth with his sleeve. Jerky meat, salt, fried rice and dried vegetables are very valuable to the current Mingyue Village, and few families can eat them. The public middle school invested a lot of money to let the soldiers eat well, but they didn't dare to waste it, otherwise they would be beaten.

Qin Zhong expressed his opinion, "It's a pity that the tung oil and rattan balls in the village have run out, otherwise just throw a few into it and solve it directly." Now you might as well concentrate your armor, cover it with a big shield, use a knife ladder to climb the wall, and then pour it directly into it......"

Xiong Chengwu and the others listened to it, and nodded again and again, Qin Zhong is worthy of being Qin Zhong, and the plan is comprehensive.

Ding Shihang saw that these people had reached an agreement, and he didn't put forward any big opinions, but just suggested that he practice twice before the battle in the formation, so as not to panic when he got it.
