Due to the large number of rebels, and their own soldiers are only 3,000, the combat effectiveness of more than 2,000 people temporarily pulled up is not as good as air, Xiao Ruxun has given up all the military strongholds outside the city after repelling Tu Wenxiu in the previous war, except for the moat and the rejection of horses and some iron thistles, there is no Ming army outside the city, and there is no Ming army within a radius of hundreds of miles, and there is no second way except to wait for help.

Fortunately, Xiao Ruxun is indeed a family scholar, knows the importance of food, and Ping Suli has a very strict control over food, and is to divide the 100 veterans brought out from the old Xiao family to manage the military granary for 10 people, in case of emergency, according to the book records, at this moment, the military grain warehouse is enough for the military and civilians in the city to use for four months.

Walking into the granary, looking at the pile of about two or three people's high full grain hoard, Xiao Ruxun nodded slightly, and in an instant he remembered the means of the grain officials of the past dynasties to deceive the upper and lower, although the grain officials who managed the military granary were brought out by themselves The old Xiao family was personally entouraged, but it was difficult to ensure that someone saw the money and deceived the upper and lower, if it was not found in time, I am afraid it would be bad, the army fights, first of all, the heaviest military food, if the military food is lost, it will be defeated.

As soon as he thought of this, Xiao Ruxun pulled out his sword, stabbed a sword on one of the bags of grain, pierced a small hole, took a handful of corn, looked at it carefully, smelled it, Xiao Ruxun is quite familiar with these crops, after all, after the end of the world, the production materials need to be cultivated by themselves, after the end of the world, Xiao Ruxun is no longer the college student who is not diligent and does not distinguish between grains and grains before the end of the world.

Walk under each grain hoard one by one, left or right or up or down, from time to time a sword pierces the small mouth, look at the color of the corn, smell whether there is a musty smell, each grain hoard has gone through, this is the final determination of the authenticity of the grain, if they can still cheat in this way, then Xiao Ruxun has nothing to say.

After encouraging the soldiers guarding the granary, Xiao Ruxun felt his physical condition and came to the military camp in the west of the city.

Pingyu City itself is a military city, with the army garrison as the first priority, most of the people in the city are military families, the number is not large, a large open space in the west of the city is divided into military camps, there are 1,000 garrisons on weekdays, and now there are more than 2,500 soldiers stationed, Xiao Ruxun's hands can use this number, and the remaining more than 500 were killed in the previous war.

Seeing the barracks from a distance, Xiao Ruxun knew that his cheap predecessor was more rigorous in governing the army, looking at it from a distance, the barracks could give people a sense of slaughter, the flag was fluttering, the guards and patrol soldiers could be seen outside the barracks, there were horns and sergeants shouting, and there seemed to be training, and there were some people in the open space on the left side outside the barracks carrying baskets and talking to some soldiers in deep red army uniforms, probably relatives came to condole, this alone made Xiao Ruxun very satisfied - the barracks are heavy, how can the people be allowed to enter?

In the previous life, in the survivor base, the number one rule of the Self-Defense Forces led by Xiao Ruxun was that relatives could not enter the barracks to visit, and the barracks were confidential places, and trespassers would be executed.

Xiao Ruxun rode forward, and the guards saw Xiao Ruxun in red clothes and black armor riding his horse from a distance, and three or five people came up with weapons, and when they saw that it was Xiao Ruxun, they immediately knelt down on one knee and saluted: "Subordinates see the general!" ”

Xiao Ruxun motioned to his soldiers to help him dismount, covered the wound with his hand to prevent the wound from bursting, dismounted and stood still, and said, "Get up!" Take me inside. ”

Immediately, two soldiers ran to the gate of the camp, then one soldier ran to the camp, and one soldier ran here, and came to Xiao Ruxun with his fists and saluted: "General, please!" ”

Xiao Ruxun nodded, slowly entered the camp with his own soldiers, walked and turned his head to see those soldiers who were chatting with their relatives hotly, paused, and then said to a personal soldier next to him: "You go to the whole city to report, inform the people of the city that the thief army is about to return to attack, in recent times the ban in the city has been strengthened, non-wartime, only during the day from three o'clock to three o'clock before you can leave home, if you wander in the city, you will be dealt with in detail, and you will not tolerate it. In addition, from today until the end of the fighting, military family members are prohibited from visiting. ”

The soldier knelt down on one knee and shouted "No", then ran to the rear as if he were flying and rode on a fast horse and ran away somewhere.

Xiao Ruxun went to the barracks with confidence, these wartime regulations are all familiar to him, not only useful, but also very necessary, in order to stabilize the morale of the army, maintain combat effectiveness, and protect the people from harm, these regulations must be implemented, otherwise how can Xiao Ruxun survive with more than 80,000 people in the last days when the law is invalid?

In the barracks, there are many barracks, mostly wooden, I want to come here to be a permanent barracks, so it is wooden, the marching barracks are basically tents, only the fences are made of wood, and columns of soldiers can be seen everywhere in the barracks, and there are no star-chasing behaviors because of Xiao Ruxun's appearance, this is a well-trained good soldier, knowing his duties, Xiao Ruxun is quite satisfied with the military quality of these troops.

After a while, I saw three people wearing armor and cloaks who looked like generals coming together, the one on the left was tall and one head taller than the other two, the one in the middle was a big man with a rough face and a scruffy beard, and the one on the right was a young man with a fair face, Xiao Ruxun knew that this should be the three commanders in the army, one of them Zhao Hu was his deputy general, and the other two were Chen Xie and Wang Hui, who were his right-hand men in the army, but at this time, Xiao Ruxun couldn't tell who of these three people was who.

The three of them stepped forward with excitement on their faces, Xiao Ruxun smiled, and the three of them took a few steps closer, knelt down on one knee and clasped their fists in a fist salute: "The last general will see the general!" ”

"Hurry up, please!" Xiao Ruxun raised his hand to help him, and the three of them got up, looking at Xiao Ruxun with excitement on their faces, and the person in the middle was even more tearful, and said excitedly: "The general is fine, the last general is relieved, the last general is incompetent, and he was actually stunned by the gunfire of the thief army, so that the general needs to personally lead the army to battle, and the last general ...... The last crime is death!! ”

After saying that, he was going to kneel down and ask for guilt again, and the other two people also had to kneel down and ask for sin, Xiao Ruxun hurriedly supported the big man and said softly: "No!" ”

The tall general said: "If you want to blame your subordinates for this matter, you can't blame Vice General Zhao, if it weren't for the subordinates who failed to protect the general, the general wouldn't have ......."

The young general on the right also spoke: "You can't blame President Chen Qian, it is the subordinate's failure to lead the army to break through the enemy position in time, causing the general to fight alone, which is the sin of his subordinates!" ”

After this mutual accusation, Xiao Ruxun can be regarded as figuring out the identities of the three people, the big man is his deputy general Zhao Hu, the cousin Bowei, the tall officer is Chen Xie, the cousin Yuande, the young officer with a fair face is Wang Hui, and the cousin Ziheng, all three of them are people who have military merits, have followed him for two years and have a good record.

In the previous battle of breaking the ground and Wenxiu, Zhao Hu took the lead in beheading the enemy's twenty-three heads, and he was unstoppable, but he was stunned by the enemy's firearms when he charged, and he could not obtain greater merits; Chen Xie beheaded seventeen, Wang Hui beheaded sixteen, they are all brave generals, dare to fight and dare to fight, the previous Xiao Ruxun led the troops in a good way, and the generals under his command were available, which can be regarded as exempting the current general Xiao from great trouble.

The army is available, but in a battle, Xiao Ruxun has the certainty of defending the city.

"The three of you are one for one to get rid of the crime, then I will also get rid of the crime for you, this matter is all my greed for merit, I don't want to see Tuwenxiu leave alive, don't blame you, you can reorganize the army to fight, calm the army's heart, it is already the greatest achievement, now although the thief army has retreated, but it will definitely come back, and there may be more enemy troops at that time, we must be prepared and help each other in the same boat!"

Xiao Ruxun typed the draft slightly, and opened his mouth to say something beautiful.

"The last general commands!"

All three replied in unison.

Then Xiao Ruxun walked around the barracks with the three of them, asking some key questions while watching the layout of the barracks.

"How many soldiers are there in our army today?"

"Back to the general, 2,516 people can fight."

"All the ordnance? Is there a shortage of swords, guns, halberds, bows, crossbows and arrows? ”

"The armament is complete, the arsenal is intact, there are 10,000 bows and crossbows, and 170,000 arrows, these are the general's reserves for many years, and they are just coming in handy at this moment."

"What about firearms? How many firearms are there? How much gunpowder is there? How much did the previous World War cost? ”

Xiao Ruxun asked the question he was most concerned about, and in the next battle to defend the city, the role of firearms was indispensable.

Zhao Hu and Chen Xie looked at Wang Hui, and Wang Hui seemed to be in charge of the firearms.

"Back to the general, count before the war, our army has ten Ye Gongshen guns, ten two generals' cannons, fifty Fran guns, 1,200 bird guns, more than 6,000 catties of gunpowder and lead, and three eye guns, five thunder god guns, a swarm of bees, etc.

Xiao Ruxun nodded, this small Pingyu City, the firearms and equipment are quite abundant, and the subsequent battle situation is also a little certain, but the previous war did not use a large number of firearms, what is the situation?

"Just ......"

Wang Hui wanted to speak and stopped, Xiao Ruxun was most afraid that it was just, and hurriedly asked, "Just what?" ”
