Chapter 420: The Weakness of the Qi Army

The confrontation on the Huainan battlefield has lasted for more than half a month.

In the past half a month, the Qi army and the Huainan army have been scolding and provoking every day, but the Chu army has just stood still, only hanging a war-free card high on the gate.

After more than half a month of confrontation, the Qi army and the Huainan army were certainly restless, and the Chu army camp was not calm.

The army is an extremely special group, even the most rigorously trained, the most determined soldiers, but also still people, as long as they are people, they must have their own thoughts, and they are completely independent thoughts, as the commander of the Chu army, Bi Shu can restrain the behavior of the soldiers under his command through military orders, but he categorically cannot restrain their thoughts.

The Qi army and the Huainan army shouted and fought outside every day, and the officers and men of the Chu army wanted to fight, but they were restrained in the camp by Bi Shu's military order, and it was absolutely impossible for them to fluctuate in their thinking, and after more than half a month of accumulation, the atmosphere in the barracks began to become dull, and some gossip began to appear.

Lao Dao and Nobita are both veterans of the Tiger Army, on the battlefield, they will not hesitate to use their bodies to block each other's arrows, that is really a fateful friendship, but today, the two had a fierce quarrel over a very small matter, and finally quarreled so much that they were red-faced, and neither side could get off the stage.

"Old knife, I know you're not happy, but if you're not happy, don't fucking make fun of Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu is your brother, not your punching bag!" Nobita knew why the old knife was not happy, because the old knife only needed to cut a dozen more heads to be promoted to the rank of official doctor, although the difference between the official doctor and the doctor was only one level, but the status was like mud.

Because the official doctor is an intermediate nobleman, Lao Dao dreams of being among the middle-level nobles, and for this battle of Huainan, Lao Dao has placed all his hopes, but now, the Chu army has been shrinking into the camp all day long to avoid fighting, seeing that the good heads are outside the camp but can not be killed, the old knife can only have a ghost in his heart.

"Lao Tzu uses you as a punching bag?" The old knife's eyes widened, and he was furious, "Did you fucking say human words just now?" Isn't your fucking title one level higher than Lao Tzu's? What's the big deal? Don't fucking put on an official's face to reprimand people, and tell Nobita, from today onwards, our brothers don't have to do it! ”

"If you don't do it, you won't do it, Lao Tzu kindly persuaded you to make a mistake?"

"Kind, you fucking disgusting man! Kind? Phew! ”

"Old knife, don't fucking ignorantly lift up, believe it or not, Lao Tzu is not polite to you."

"Yo ho? Anxious? Aren't you just an official doctor, and you still say you're terrible? If you have the ability to cut off Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu's head is here, and you have the ability to cut it. ”

"Old knife, don't force Lao Tzu!"

Nobita roared, his right hand already on the handle of the knife.

The old knife is not a good stubble, and his right hand quietly holds the handle of the knife.

The military discipline of the Chu army is extremely strict, but the army is the army, and such things as fighting and brawling are absolutely indispensable, but the Tiger Ben Army is different after all, in normal times, there are veterans who are familiar with each other for a long time to come forward to persuade the fight, but today no one stands up to persuade the fight, and the veterans around are just three or three, a group of east and west, sitting there coldly watching, and the atmosphere is a little weird.

Just when the old knife and Nobita were about to lose their cool, draw their swords and fire, a rush of footsteps suddenly came, and when the two looked back hurriedly, they saw that the tiger general Jin Xiang had already strode over with a horizontal knife, and walked in front of the two.

The old knife and Nobita snorted and covered their beaten faces, but the corners of their mouths were overflowing with blood.

"It's a long time, huh?!" Jin Xiang's wolf-like gaze swept over the faces of Lao Dao and Nobita, and said viciously, "If it weren't for Lao Tzu passing by, would you still want to draw your sword and fire?" Hmmm?! Saying that, Jin Xiang's anger surged up again, and he pulled out the horsewhip and whipped the two of them viciously several times. …,

The old knife and Nobita grinned in pain, but they didn't dare to hide.

"I gave you a knife to cut down your enemies, not to use it to cut your own brothers!" Jin Xiang couldn't help but whip two more whips on the helmet of the old knife and Nobita, and shouted, "Go and squat in the pit by yourself, and you won't be allowed to come out for three days!" "This squatting pit is not a real squatting pit, but letting the two of them soak in the dung pit, and from time to time they have to bear the brothers pooping and peeing on their heads, which is a unique punishment for the Chu army!

The old knife and Nobita glared at each other viciously, and their faces darkened.

"And you." Jin Xiang pointed at the lively veterans around with the horsewhip in his hand, and said viciously, "It's fun to watch others quarrel, isn't it?" It's fun to watch other people take on knives, isn't it? If there is one, you will not be allowed to eat for three days! Damn, let you see the fun, Lao Tzu starved you bunnies. ”

It wasn't until Jin Xiang walked away that the tiger soldiers who were stupid in place let out a sigh in unison.

With nothing to do, Bi Shu was leaning on the cushion to read the military book, but the curtain of the big tent was suddenly opened.

When he looked up, he saw that General Jin Xiang had already strode in with a black face, Bi Shu smiled slightly, put down the military book and sat up on his knees, and said, "General Jin, what's wrong with you?" ”

Jin Xiang slammed Bishu hard, and said with a dark face: "General, when will the war-free card be hung?" ”

"Battle-free cards, huh?" Bi Shu was stunned for a while, and then finally remembered that there seemed to be such a thing, and immediately stroked his forehead and smiled, "Oh, look at my memory, I almost forgot about it." After saying this, Bi Shu said again, "Okay, since General Jin, you see that this brand is so unpleasant, then take it down, um." ”

Jin Xiang's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said excitedly: "The general agreed to fight?" ”

"Fighting?" Bi Shu was stunned and said, "Taking a brand is taking a brand, what kind of battle?" ”

"General, you ......" Jin Xiang spread his hands, full of annoyance, don't you play with me?

The look on Bi Shu's face suddenly became serious, and said: "General Jin, General Ben knows that you are eager to fight, and the soldiers are already holding back, and they are all looking forward to an early decisive battle with the Qi Army and the Huainan Army, and some people even said in private that General Ben was afraid of Han Xin, so he didn't dare to fight, but General Jin, you said, are you sure of victory now?" ”

Jin Xiang was silent, now in a decisive battle with the Qi army and the Huainan army, the Chu army really has no certainty of victory.

"No, we don't have any certainty of victory." Bi Shu shook his head, and said in a solemn tone, "We don't even have half of the chance of winning, if we fight a decisive battle with the Qi army now, we are likely to be defeated, if the Huainan battlefield is defeated, it will definitely affect the result of the Nanyang War, if Nanyang is defeated again, Dachu is in danger!" ”

Jin Xiang obviously would not be persuaded by this, and retorted: "But ......"

"Are you trying to say that even if we wait like this, our chances won't increase?" Bi Shu shook his hand and said with a serious expression, "No, General Jin, you are wrong, wait a minute, our chances of victory will definitely increase, this is because the Qi army has a fatal weakness, that is, ...... Lack of food! ”

Since the Kong family came out with Kong Zhongni, they have become a famous family in Lu County.

The Confucian family cultivated and read heirlooms, taught and educated people, and generally did not care much about the disputes of the princes, so it was not affected much in this troubled era, even if the wars of Qi were the most frequent, Tian Dan, Tian Rong, Tian Heng, and Han Xin repeatedly changed as kings, they were not affected, and when Xiang Zhuang plundered Qi, because Lu County was a fief of Xiang Yu, he did not dare to make a mistake.

Therefore, Lu County is one of the few counties in the eight counties of Qidi that has not been devastated by the war.

However, today, the mansion of Kong Gong, the patriarch of the Kong family, ushered in a distinguished guest, and this guest was none other than Lou Jing, the minister of Qi State. ..., Lou Jing is here for only one thing, to collect grain!

Hundreds of thousands of Qi troops are out on the march, and the food consumed every day is an astronomical amount, but Linzi Taicang has already been empty, and Taicang has no grain, so it can only collect grain, however, since it was looted by Xiang Zhuang, Qi land withered, and the people had no food to collect, so helpless, Lou Jing could only stretch out his hand to the wealthy family of Qi.

Lou Jing knew very well that asking for food from the wealthy family was to drink doves to quench his thirst, but he had no choice.

The conversation with Kong Gong, the head of the Confucian family, was very unpleasant, although Kong Gong was a descendant of Confucius, but he was not benevolent or righteous, and there was no ancestral fashion at all, let Lou Jing say that the heavens were broken, he just refused to pay for food, in fact, Kong Gong's stinginess was notoriously, and the family accumulated thousands of stones, but there were often starving beggars outside the gate of the Kong family!

Lou Jing had no choice but to transfer troops to forcibly recruit and open the granary of the Kong family, and there were more than 5,000 stones of corn!

In the end, most of the more than 5,000 stone corn of the Kong family was forcibly requisitioned, and Lou Jing only left 200 stones for the Kong family, looking at a cart of corn being transported away from his own granary, Kong Gong was so distressed that he cried, and after crying, he began to curse Lou Jing, and after scolding Lou Jing began to scold Han Xin, listening to Kong Gong's hoarse cursing, Lou Jing's face became unprecedentedly solemn.

Lou Jing knew that from this moment on, the foundation of Han Xin's rule in the Qi State had begun to waver.

This time it was really shaken, including the Kong family, almost all the wealthy families in the entire Qi land were almost swept by Lou Jing, whether these wealthy families cooperated or not, they all resented the King of Qi from the bottom of their hearts, and once there was a stir, they would not hesitate to raise the banner of rebellion.

However, these are not what Lou Jing is most worried about.

What Lou Jing is most worried about is that the Huainan War will continue to confront each other endlessly.

You must know that the grain collected this time is already the last batch of grain that Lou Jing can collect, and it will also be the last batch of military food that Lou Jing can send to the Huainan battlefield, and when this batch of military food is exhausted, he Lou Jing will not be able to turn into more food, at that time, even Han Xin, the king of Qi, will only choose to withdraw from the army...... - u-c-t-x-t-[UC e-book] The end of the text [UC e-book]-u-c-t-x-t
