Chapter 8 [Hungry Food Delivery Team]
Bai Dong began to worry about his trip to Hexi, and eating seemed to be a big problem.
Breakfast was still early, and the food crisis in the early Warring States period was ordinary, unless it was the aristocracy and the soldiers who were about to go to the battlefield, the rest of the people only ate two meals a day, so breakfast was in the middle of the day, and dinner was in the unitary time; Don't expect to have a supper, even scholars and nobles have to enjoy it secretly behind closed doors, otherwise they will be scolded by others.
Qin Jun came to invite, and after Bai Dong got out of the car, he loosened his muscles and bones, and watched with interest as Qin Jun buried the pot and made rice; The grain trucks were parked on the side of the road, and half of the soldiers were left next to each car to guard and half of the soldiers to eat, apparently in a different shift.
The soldiers who squatted on the car turned out to be in charge of military rations, and no one moved the other food bags, only untied the bag of grain they were responsible for cooking, and the pot had not yet been invented in this era, that is, dozens of people waited around a fire, and a large clay pot hung on the fire, and the bottom of the jar had long been smoked black. As far as the eye can see, there are nearly 100 such fires.
Bai Dong was invited to a fire, and in addition to Liyang Ling Bai Chong, there were also some ordinary soldiers, all of whom were touching their stomachs and drooling; Bai Chong, who had the highest official position, was the most unbearable, and before he got closer, he heard his stomach rumbling.
Seeing Bai Dong, Bai Chong beckoned again and again: "Sir, come on, after this meal, you have to wait for dinner, you can't miss it." Is the porridge ready? Come on, first serve Mr. Bai a bowl of chestnut noodle porridge, all the way around, how can a scholar stand it"
Just drinking porridge? Seeing a Qin soldier walking over with a steaming bowl, Bai Dong looked around for a long time, but he didn't see any dry goods, so he had to give up, took the old pottery bowl with a big head and looked down, and immediately saw the bright sun and himself staring.
Is this called porridge? This is Shimizu! If you don't have dry goods, what's the matter with getting a bowl of water? Furious in his heart, he turned his head to look at Bai Chong, could it be that he was bullying outsiders?
When I got closer, Bai Chong's bowl was the same, it wasn't even mushy, it was just a little chestnut soup, if it was paired with two or two dogs ignoring the buns, it would be delicious, who could stand the dry drink? Bai Dong frowned slightly, the situation seemed to be more serious than he imagined, and he had to take measures immediately, otherwise he would be starved to death before he could be punished by that old thing.
"Linggong, I have heard that if the fierce wolf is hungry, it will not be able to catch up with the wild deer; If a strong horse is hungry, it will run slower than a stupid ox; A wise monarch will become deaf if he is hungry; If the loyal courtiers are hungry, they will run to other countries, and if you have so many brave soldiers under your command, if they are hungry, you are not afraid that they will not be able to protect the food, and if they encounter the enemy, they will only be slaughtered? Bai Dong shook the old bowl.
Bai Chong rolled his eyes: "Scholars like to bend and twist when they talk, and if they don't eat enough, they say that they don't eat enough, but they want to talk about some wild wolves and horses." Sir, I'm not a fool, would I like to starve? We're out of food! ”
"No food?"
Bai Dong's eyes widened wider than copper bells, and he pointed to the grain team: "There are about ten stones of grain on each car, right?" I've calculated, I'm afraid that the grain team will have 400 grain trucks? A whole 4,000 stone of grain, you told me that there was no food, so that the soldiers would starve to death with piles of grain? ”
"That's military rations!"
Bai Chong shook his head and drank all the noodle soup in one gulp: "There are rules for transporting grain, the army of grain guards brings their own rations, but none of the military rations that are escorted can be moved, otherwise they will be beheaded immediately!" On the way, I encountered a few days of heavy rain, delayed the trip, and was robbed and killed by Wei Gou several times, and then delayed for a few days, and now there are still three days away from the Hexi camp, and the rations are about to run out, and now there is noodle soup to drink. ”
"Ling Gongtai doesn't know how to be flexible, the soldiers can't eat enough, what should they do if they encounter the enemy again? Does the 4,000-stone military ration have to be given to the enemy to be called a military rule? "Bai Dong is stupid, could it be that the ancients were all elm heads? I'm about to faint from hunger, what kind of military rules do I keep? ”
"Military regulations are military regulations, what does the old Qin people have to eat a few bites? The same killing and protecting food! Bai Chonghuo Ran got up and shook his fist vigorously.
"Kill the enemy and protect the food! Kill the enemy and protect the food! Countless Qin soldiers stood up one after another and roared after him.
All lunatics. Bai Dong drank the noodle soup in two or three sips, and if he didn't say much, these people were hopeless.
When Bai Dong began to see the moon as a big scallion pancake, he knew that he couldn't hide his secrets, and reached out to the bag under his head, which not only showed the identity of the scholar, but also the dry noodle cakes and salt prepared for him by the clansmen, and remembered that there were a few grilled fish, which were packed with tears when leaving the village.
These foods are used to save his life after the most relent, and they also carry Bai Dong's longing for home, and he will never use it until the critical moment, so even if he drinks noodles for two days in a row, he still insists, if it weren't for Bai Chong's inhumanity, he would sprinkle the grilled fish with salt and make it into salted fish to continue to preserve. This was made by Cao'er's own hands, and her fingers were punctured by fish bones for the sake of these grilled fish.
Opening his bags, Bai Dong was stunned, and his eyes began to turn red: "Bai Chong, you villain who kills a thousand knives!" Military rations cannot be tampered with, could it be that Lao Tzu's private property can be plundered at will? You tell me, where is my bread, where is the grilled fish! There are also those salts, which were obtained by Bai Longye after walking hundreds of miles of mountain roads and exchanging a whole load of mountain goods, where did they go! ”
There was no shortage of books, but the food was gone, Bai Dong had the heart to kill, a tiger jumped out of the carriage, grabbed the back collar of the coachman, and roared like a madman.
"It was Ling Gong who took it and gave it to those injured brothers. Ling Gong said, my whole army admires Mr. for his great kindness, and when he arrives at the camp in Hexi, he will definitely repay him tenfold! ”
"Ten times the return? Did he have the fate to go to Hexi to know the way! What a robber, who took my things, why don't you say anything? ”
Looking back at the many carriages with carriages in the grain team, all the wounded soldiers were lying there, they were the highest-paid people in the grain team, Bai Chong's oak yang ordered to drink noodles and water, but they could have gruel to eat; Bai Dong has actually lost his anger, in any era, saving lives and helping the injured is always the common moral code of mankind, he is just angry about Bai Chong's behavior without telling him.
"Mr.'s dry cakes and grilled fish saved the lives of two comrades, Ling Gong said, taking it without telling is a thief, and taking it without telling is a thief, and the Qin people are still brave, so stealing in Qin is a bigger crime than robbing. Ling Gong would rather be a thief, that is, to punish himself fiercely to comfort Mr. Bai. ”
"Comfort a fart, I'm not a dead person, I don't use the right words!"
Bai Dong sat back in the car angrily and stared at the driver's back for a long time: "Are you hungry?" ”
"Hungry. But don't worry, sir, when I can't hold on, someone will take over for me to drive the car for my husband."
"Okay, okay, don't sing your military songs, your ears are calloused. You Ling Gong is a good commander, but it's a pity that you don't have brains, causing the army to starve, but you go alone to save a few wounded soldiers, is this a fart? Wait for tomorrow, I have a way to keep you full, so that everyone can eat a round belly."
The living can't let urine suffocate to death, isn't that the rule? When it comes to exploiting loopholes in the law, Bai Dong is an expert among experts
