Chapter 152: The Frontier and the Beginning (Text)
More than ten days have passed,
went to the local Liangtai and Aftermath Department to report, the current Liangtai ambassador Gan Quan is not a stranger, and he was introduced at the night banquet in Longque Garden.
Therefore, it did not pay special attention to and care, but there was no difficulty or prevarication, and the station and the seal were quickly arranged.
because
The place where the war is really fierce is close to the capital city of Tiannan Prefecture, and other places are all going down without a fight, a scene of welcoming the king, so there are not many places that are really affected by the fire.
Except for the business travel on the road, which was replaced by running messengers and baggage teams, the daily life in other places did not change much, and even the local villagers also started business with the nearby military brigades who came to rebel.
Therefore, the characters who really need to be guarded and maintained in normal times are not heavy, and the pressure is limited.
For example, our station, between Jianzhou and Tiannan Honshu, outside a small town near the river, uses the manor of a wealthy family requisitioned by the local government as a station, of course, the reason why we are no longer stationed in the town is mainly due to some selfish considerations.
On the one hand, I hope to avoid the fact that these centaurs I have brought out with great difficulty will live too much with the locals, resulting in a certain demoralization and relaxation, and on the other hand, it is convenient to avoid the eyes and ears of others and do some private work by myself.
It is said to be a manor, but in fact, it is more like a high-walled building complex called Wubao, with fields and orchards, mountains, forests, and rivers, watermills, wine and sauce weaving and dyeing, and some of the plantation economic characteristics that are mostly self-sufficient.
It's just that after the main family was coerced to Tiannan Prefecture, it became a reverse production in a sense. Then it became my relatively closed camp, and the Chinese army's baggage and camp tents were set up in the main building complex called "Xuanming Building".
Most of them are stone structures, and then built on the fine house courtyard of civil engineering, wrapped in the high wall behind the courtyard is more than ten steps into the courtyard, even Huan one hundred and eighty rooms, among which the various garden buildings are selected and used in the place of the bag, even I, who has managed the city, can't help but scold a "big dog" or something,
Although it has been swept away by the first step, at least it is still disciplined, and the rest of the things are not burned by fire, so although the nearby villagers have taken the sheep and beat the autumn wind, the main building is still intact, and various functions are still there, and it can be used completely.
This expedition to Tiannanzhou is just a formality as part of the rear maintenance troops, and the place where the real heat is in full swing is not our turn, but the lineup of nearly 60,000 officers and soldiers is at its peak, and if it is really our turn to be a miscellaneous formation, it will be really a big deal.
We are stationed here, as a grain station similar to a military station, because according to military customs and regulations, we have to rush to find dangerous places on the road, and establish various lines of grain stations, so as to fill the army, therefore, our main duty is only to protect the grain, guard the camp, patrol the road and other daily tasks.
Although there is still a task to prevent the remnants of the rebels from wandering in the name, we still have at least four or five blockades from the front of the battle, and it is not our turn to worry about anything.
The main reason is that on the Jiulong River Plain, there is almost a flat river, and the rivers are dense and extend in all directions, so there may be any fish that have slipped through the net. Therefore, after I reported to the department of the grain institute, I also blatantly investigated the reasons for the suspected thieves, and collected dozens of boats of all sizes for patrolling the river.
Of course, it is said to be patrolling the river, but in fact, there are other uses.
Therefore, I soon threw myself into some new enterprise, sending people to survey the terrain, expand the range of activities, and make friends with nearby allies.
With the arrival of the follow-up caravan,
It's easy for me to get into the daily grind of doing business, with the rigors of training and training on the one hand! Training, while using a peaceful atmosphere, contacts and relationships everywhere, and uses excess manpower to do business.
After all, as long as there are people, there are various daily needs, as long as you run diligently, the needs of communication are always there, and there is a certain amount of armed backing and endorsement, so as a Chinese person can also obtain benefits. During this time, hundreds of prisoners were sold alone, mainly to those gilded people as their own records, and some of the other whose origins were not easy to prove were handed over to Zheng Zhou to deal with.
The biggest key is not to make money, but to get in touch with and understand all kinds of advice and information.
In addition to the relay escort of a few baggage teams, the only embodiment and sense of the battle is the wounded who have been sent down one after another like flowing water, and if the number and batch are larger, it means that a major offensive has just broken out in the front.
According to the news of those passing soldiers, after gradually clearing the periphery of Tiannan Prefecture, the offensive became difficult when it encountered obstacles, and the rebel party gathered around Ning Haigong resolutely resisted around the capital of Tiannan Prefecture, including even two or three famous former officers and soldiers, as well as the navy troops who had been stationed in the local area for a long time.
Therefore, after at least nine regular army numbers and dozens of battalions of rebel armies uprooted these strongholds one by one and completely blocked the land and water that extended in all directions, the war was not so easy to end.
This is the famous granary, and the rebels behind the clear field are not abundant, so I have to do my duty honestly according to some ambitions and ideas.
Under the scorching sun,
Many sturdy soldiers, shirtless, wearing only a pair of calf trousers, sweating their skills, and their bodies, tanned by some scorching sun, already had distinct muscle lines and tense outlines.
Some of them, in teams of ten, carried thick logs, shouted trumpets along the courtyard walls, and trotted hard in sweat and rain;
Others carried heavy weapons on their backs in the river, practiced swimming or something, or climbed up and down with ropes on trees and rocks.
There are also some people who hold firearms upside down, like hammers and spears, and form formations to play the method of fighting and confrontation.
Calorie-filled eating and drinking and adequate sleep, coupled with the energy and physical strength that are squeezed as much as possible every day, make them seem to be much stronger rather than affected by the lack of adaptation.
As the convenience of the so-called building near the water of the grain station, there is no risk of tension in the daily supply, so you can let go of your stomach to eat and let go of your hands to practice.
It can even provide the convenience of daily services through guò, and on the grounds of material consumption and road damage, one or two oil from the military Zili sent to the front.
In a certain way, this situation is what I want, and I wish it would have been more durable. With free ammunition and arrows alone, I have accumulated a few bases, and if this continues, my people will almost be fully equipped with a piece of armor.
It's just that as the deputy Xin Jiaxuan, he is somewhat disappointed and disappointed, although it is the big husband's desire to make a contribution, but it also requires fate and luck, not everyone can meet it.
However, he didn't want to think that Miss Lu arranged for him to come here in the hope of avoiding risks to the greatest extent and waiting for a period of seniority to go back, so as to have a further foundation.
Therefore, I can only arrange for him to participate more in daily training and training! Take turns in the field to learn about these troubles and unpleasant things.
However, he was obviously not satisfied with this, in addition to the combatants, other trumpeters, drummers, trumpeters, gong players, Wufang and Patrol Standard-bearers, doctors, clerks, grooms, gunpowder makers, carpenters, blacksmiths, men, walkers, pond newspapers, and other miscellaneous workers, there were also hundreds of people.
The continuous rotation of the arrangement, either preparing various items, practicing the flag, or running to and fro, anyway, is not idle,
Hot tea soup and all kinds of cooking food are boiled in the room all day and night, and the most common is a large amount of seafood soup, which is a chowder soup with seaweed, miscellaneous fish, shrimp, small crabs and shellfish directly caught near the shore, chopped and boiled into a big pot with ginger, onion and garlic.
Although the fishy smell is very strong, I still try to curb the discomfort and eat it, but it is a wonderful feeling of being extremely fishy and fresh, and it can also refresh my mind and restore my body.
In the room
I'm tasting the new drunken crab, this thing climbs everywhere on the coastline and the riverside, almost no cost, but the way to eat is very monotonous, and it is very easy to spoil, so it is pickled with wine sauce ginger salt, which can be put for a long time in hot weather, and it is a good thing to eat.
It is also summer, wet and rainy season, all kinds of things are very easy to mildew, so the appropriate pickling method is very useful. This can add a new business name.
As one of the few daily pleasures of his subordinates, he took the firecracker team to hunt and fish in the swamps and tidal flats by the river, improve his food, and practice marksmanship and archery; Or go out on a boat and bring back a boatload of specialties
"Will ...... Lord"
A voice called me away, but it was a young man with a pale face.
"If you need it, come and see ......"
His name is Lu Tanni, but I met an acquaintance here, in the same year that the state capital Tuo Colony School, there was also an alias "Egg Mud Deer", the famous prodigal son, the son of the Lu clan, and one of the few playmates of my childhood.
He is a descendant of naturalized people, when the countryman was born in a feudal family and the naturalized person was born in a feudal family, when the school was divided into two opposing competitions,
He was caught in the middle and bullied the hardest, and it wasn't until I transferred to another school and pulled up another group of people to play with his own, that he was able to add his face and avoid the pain of flesh and skin.
The banner of his family is a pair of antlers, because there are many mountains and forests and pastures in the domain, and there are many cattle, horses, pigs and sheep that are stocked, and they are famous for producing all kinds of skin and meat, the most famous of which are deer breasts and antlers.
This time, I just came with a group of generals to make soy sauce in the name of experience. I just came from the territory with a batch of rice to send the army, and I just asked to come and partner with me as my grain yard escort.
Now it is also my business with all parties, the contact person on the table, I followed him to the corner tower, and I could see from a distance that the road was black and oppressive.
It was a group of bloodied and filthy people who were driven by all kinds of armed men armed with swords and clubs, but not the young and middle-aged captives of the past, but men, women and children.
"Have you already started to hunt for deaths......
"It seems that the casualties of the officers and soldiers have also begun to increase sharply......"
