Chapter 832: Proteins of Action



To say that the enemy discovered the ambush of the Ningxiang army, Sun Yuan felt that it was unlikely.

The troops dispatched by the Ningxiang Army this time were all cavalry, and the vigilance circle was very large, and if the enemy's probe horse came out, it would definitely be discovered by the enemy first. But up to now, Sun Yuan's scouts have all said that they have not found Liu Liangzuo's abnormal behavior.

Moreover, after Liu Liangzuo heard that Yangzhou Town was attacking with all his might, he would definitely flee back to Shouzhou as soon as possible, the sooner the better. If you stay in Yeshan any longer, it will be a dead end.

Now the enemy is halfway and retreats, isn't that child's play?

Moreover, listening to the sound of the enemy's horses' hooves and the dust rising, it is sure that the whole army will be dispatched. With so many people, if you want to suddenly change your route, Sun Yuan doesn't think that Liu Liangzuo has such discipline.

Therefore, the enemy's goal is still to flee west.

"Don't move, wait, wait." Sun Yuan shook his head again and quieted down his subordinates.

Now that the commander had given the order, all the generals stopped again.

All the soldiers who had already mounted their horses dismounted, and the hills were quiet again, and only the golden sunlight cast down from the sky, shining brightly on the leaves.

At the same time, the noise of the enemy in front of them also quieted down, and the dust began to slowly subside.

They were all battle-hardened veterans, and the soldiers' steady breathing came slowly, but Sun Yuan's heart was still unstable, as if hot oil was boiling.

I don't know how long it took, but the sound of horses' hooves rumbling in the distance began to sound again. The dust that had just fallen rose again, and it was even bigger than before.

Tiny particles of dust and sand drifted in the wind, falling on the leaves and dead grass, and even the rustling sound could be heard

The enemy is moving again, this time even more vigorously than before. Listening to the sound, it was actually coming to this official road.

Sun Yuan breathed a long sigh of relief, and the cunning Liu Liangzuo first used a thousand cavalry to scare the snake in front. As soon as the more than 1,000 cavalry ran up, it was easy for the ambushed troops to be his main force. If they really fall for them, Liu Liangzuo's main force in the back will run away as soon as possible.

Using a thousand cavalry as bait, this flower horse Liu is willing to do it!

Seeing that Sun Yuan guessed the enemy's arrangement, all the officers in Yangzhou Town looked at Sun Yuan with admiration. (.marshmallow)

Even Sun Yuan was a little proud, the reason why he has won every battle since his debut is because of the modern training method. When he went to the battlefield, he also relied on absolute strength to crush the enemy. If you talk about strategy and strategy, to be honest, you are still a layman.

This is the first time he has used stratagems on the battlefield, and he can see through Liu Liangzuo's tricks at a glance, and it is difficult to think about it.

Soon, the enemy's 1,000 forward troops turned back. This time, the enemy was leading their horses on foot and walking very slowly. This is also understandable, there are more than 500 miles of road from Yeshan back to Shouzhou. A cavalryman has a hundred to one hundred and thirty catties, and with the addition of armor, equipment, and dry food, it is almost two hundred catties. If you march on horseback, after walking for a day, the war horse will lose its strength. If there is a war, what strength is there to charge?

And the war horse is especially able to eat when it is tired, and the war horse is different from ordinary large livestock, but it cannot only be fed with grass, but must be raised with real food. Not to mention the huge cost, it is also a big test for logistics.

Therefore, during the Cold Weapon War, unless there was a big roundabout raid, even the Mongols and Jiannu marched on foot on weekdays, in order to accumulate horsepower and use it at the most critical moment.

The thousand enemies who came should be Liu Liangzuo's elite, and they were very closely combined with the troops behind.

Glancing at Liu Liangzuo's Chinese army, Sun Yuan was taken aback, took a breath of cold air, and said, "I'm so rich!" He blurted out.

That's right, it's so rich.

But I saw that tens of thousands of cattle and sheep were coming all over the world, filling up the large open space under the hill in an instant.

Sun Yuan had never seen so many animals in his life, goats, sheep, cattle, buffaloes, mules, donkeys, horses...... Countless large animals huddled together, screaming angrily, kicking and biting each other

。 Some of the cattle and sheep rushed forward, while others scattered to the side, hungry and thirsty to gnaw on the wild grass on the roadside.

"Liu Liangzuo's brain was so big before, and I thought he had many cavalry, but he didn't want to be all big livestock, which scared me."

There were so many cattle that they were so crowded that the team under the mountain suddenly couldn't walk, and Liu Liangzuo's soldiers cursed loudly at these beasts who were not driven away with spears, trying to restore order to the team.

But a beast is a beast, how to understand human speech. People and animals were in a jam, and the speed of their advance was frightening.

The large cloud of dust was thicker, and there was chaos in front of him, and he couldn't see anything clearly.

The noise was loud, and occasionally the smell of cow and horse dung hit the wind, so that people couldn't help but cover their mouths and noses.

"This ......" On the hill, all the soldiers of the Ningxiang Army looked at this scene in amazement, as if they had returned to the grassland outside the mouth.

Sun Yuan couldn't help but smile at Tang Wenxing beside him: "Sure enough, it's Huama Liu, this nickname is really not for nothing." I'll just say why this guy came to Yangzhou so quickly, it turned out to be a Mongolian nomad! ”

Liu Liangzuo was originally from the Yunzhong region of Shanxi Province and was familiar with the Mongols' combat methods.

In the past, when the Mongols were fighting, they would bring a large number of cattle and sheep with the army to go on the expedition, and when they were hungry, they would drink cow and goat milk and eat beef and mutton. They don't need to be fed with a lot of grain, just graze them anyway.

The water and grass in the Jiangnan area are fertile, and Liu Liangzuo also robbed a large number of livestock after entering the Jianghuai area, which can be seen from the herds of buffalo under the hillside.

Tang Wenxing: "Huama Liu is finished, he has brought so many livestock, and when the next mess starts, it will be out of control." ”

Sun Yuan: "Tang Wenxing, guess what I'm thinking?" ”

Tang asked: "Please also ask for advice." ”

Sun Yuan: "After this battle, we can add vegetables." ”

Tang Wenxing still had the same dead face, but the other generals all had smiles on their faces, and some even swallowed their saliva subconsciously: It's a lot of moving proteins

The Ningxiang Army's daytime training is very hard, and the physical consumption is large, and it needs a lot of meat supplementation. Otherwise, according to Sun Yuan's method of training, it is easy to train soldiers to waste.

Therefore, on weekdays, Sun Yuan is very concerned about the nutrition of soldiers, white rice, steamed buns are eaten openly, and there is a meal of meat every three days.

The supply of meat for more than 10,000 soldiers was a huge test for the logistics department.

At the beginning, Sun Yuan also thought about raising chickens and pigs like the World Farm. However, the concentrated breeding of pig farms and chicken farms in later generations was based on the compound feed produced by industry and advanced epidemic prevention methods. Take raising chickens as an example, chicks are born and will be injected with drugs every time they are raised. To put it mildly, the intensive farming of later generations relied on antibiotics to put it bluntly.

Sun Yuan's farm is large-scale, and he also pays attention to hygiene. But all it takes is a plague to watch thousands of chickens and ducks fall.

As a result, he gave up the idea of starting a farm.

Chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep cannot be farmed on a large scale, so they can only rely on marine fishing.

The East China Sea of this era is not like the East China Sea that has been caught by fishermen's nets in later generations, and even shrimp hair cannot be seen, and aquatic products are extremely rich. In particular, the Zhoushan fishing ground and the fishing ground in Taiwan can make a lot of gains as soon as you go down.

Since the establishment of the Sailor Division, Sun Yuan has assembled a large fishing team to provide seafood for the military town and send boatloads of rain shrimp back like flowing water.

Looking at the amazingly large prawns, abalone, and wild yellow croaker, the soldiers were full of fat stomachs one by one.

By this time, the troops had been able to see a single dried sardine at every meal.

But as they ate, everyone gradually felt that something was wrong.

These seafood were good at first, but eating this kind of thing for three meals a day is really unbearable. The point is, the seafood has no oil and water! How can it be compared to a mouthful of meat, and the mouth is full of oil.

Gradually, people didn't like these things.

In particular, in ancient times when there was no refrigerator freezer, in order to keep it fresh, it could only be made into dry goods

。 Cut brick-sized pieces with a guillotine, wrapped them in oiled paper, and put them in the leather bags that soldiers carried with them to make dry rations. When the war is urgent and you don't have time to cook, you can take it out and bite a few bites, and you can stand up for a while. Anyway, this thing can be eaten raw, and it won't hurt your stomach.

The Ningxiang army has been training all year round, and the dried fish made of these big fish is simply their intimate companion, even if there is professional cooking, the taste is not good.

Eating to the end, it simply frightened the soldiers.

It is said that as soon as the troops leave the garrison to march, train, and fight, the vegetable shop in the house will start to go crazy: the man will bring you a fried dried fish in the morning, and steamed rice with dried fish at noon. Be more formal in the evening, fish noodles. If you have enough time, you will also be given a bun with fish filling.

God knows where they got so many dried fish, and they were so big that they were the size of a man. They were packed in sacks of sackcloth and sent to the barracks in a truckload to dry in a ventilated place. As a result, the camp was filled with the smell of the sea, and the stench made people cry.

By the end of the day, the soldiers had stopped counting on the logistics officers to surprise them.

They couldn't eat so much fish, so the soldiers carved the fish into small boats with knives and played with them in the stream, making fish rosaries and hanging them around their necks. Some people even carved the fish into small bowls to hold porridge, and when a bowl of hot porridge was drunk, the dried fish was soaked enough to eat.

It's not that no one hasn't raised their opinions to the logistics department, but the old men actually sent a propaganda team into the barracks to vigorously instill in the soldiers the benefits of fish and meat. "Not in the hand, only in the heart." "It's sweet and delicious." "Eating fish and meat is loving the country and the army, and not eating it is not a Ningxiang person."

The result was a burst of ridicule from the soldiers.

This time, the Ningxiang Army conscripted Gao Jie and Erliu Coalition Army, and the amount of seafood issued by the logistics department was 30% more than before. After eating all the prawns, the remaining dried fish has already made everyone vomit. Now, when they see the cattle and sheep that can't be seen at a glance, everyone's eyes are green.

In particular, most of the soldiers of the cavalry army came from the nine sides of the north, and they were used to eating cattle and sheep, and since they came to the south, they still haven't tasted this kind of umami for a long time.

This is the real "happy at first sight, happy at first taste." ”

Hearing Sun Yuan's words and thinking of today's dinner, everyone's morale was raised to the highest point.
