Chapter 247: Calm
"It's great to keep eating after exercising." Lu Bu exhaled a breath of turbidity, turned over and dismounted, and immediately a cavalryman next to him served a bowl of steaming mutton soup. Lu Bu took it, and there was still a coagulated brain on the palm of his left hand, but he didn't care, and drank the mutton soup with a snort, without the slightest trace of being the main general.
After taking a satisfied sip of the soup, his right hand reached out into the bowl, grabbed a piece of mutton, and began to feast on it. It was a very rare thing to be able to find a bowl in this tribe, and as for the cauldron, it was brought by the more than 3,000 soldiers of Yunting who were now useless and had been completely reduced to heavy soldiers. There are no chopsticks, and there is no need for chopsticks, Xianbei people eat directly with their hands, chopsticks are too high-end for them, Lu Bu naturally chooses to follow the customs, at least there is no difference between him and his soldiers, this is where a qualified general should learn to do and where shrewdness lies.
You can go back to the city after the war to spend a lot of time and live in a mansion that other soldiers look up to, or you can eat delicious food, but on the battlefield, you can't distinguish yourself from other ordinary soldiers. Only by practicing can we gain the respect and love of the rest of the soldiers, and can we tightly unite an army around the main general.
The bloody smell of the entire slaughtered Xianbei tribe faded slightly, and was replaced by invisible cooking smoke and the smell of mutton wafting from the noses of many Bingzhou cavalrymen. In the Xianbei tribe, a large cauldron has been erected everywhere, and the matches under the pot are fluttering and burning, and the soup in the pot has boiled, and a layer of oil foam has floated in it, and large pieces of mutton have floated in it, shimmering with an appetizing color.
"Gollum." A soldier next to the cauldron looked at it and swallowed his saliva unconsciously.
There are dozens of Bingzhou cavalry waiting in line with big bowls, and the firehead soldiers (bastard, uncle, I'm a yellow turban wrestler!) He was flipping a large spoon, scooping up a spoonful of mutton and mutton broth, and pouring it into the large bowl of the cavalry in front of him. But he did not stop, and continued to scoop the spoon until the large bowl of the cavalry in front of him was full, and the firehead signaled the next one to come forward.
The firehead soldiers are the elite of the Yellow Turbans brought by Yunting, and among them are the Yellow Turban wrestlers who are not inferior to other main forces of the Han army. But by this time, many of them had changed their minds, and instead of holding weapons in their hands, they had replaced them with large spoons. It is impossible to say that there is no discontent in their hearts, but after many days of marching, after seeing the battlefield left behind by the former slaughtering the tribe, they sensed a fierceness. That's right, it's fierce, there aren't too many twists and turns in the army, and these elites of the Yellow Turban Army can't do better than the former in the same situation, so they have no complaints about temporarily serving as the head of the fire.
Of course, more importantly, they have never seen such good food! Meat, meat, meat, and meat, they've never seen so much meat before! is one of the Yellow Turban Lux in the Yellow Turban base camp of Julu in the past, and not everyone can eat meat at once, but everything presented in front of him is clearly as long as you want, as long as you can, you can eat meat without scruples and constraints. Beef, mutton, these meats that are rarely eaten in their borders, here have become something that they have to choose to give up later. Even in the previous tribe, they killed all the cattle and sheep in the tribe, took what they could bring, discarded all that they couldn't, and dug a big pit to bury them.
This is a desperate plan, and it is also the strategy of clearing the wilderness that the Bingzhou cavalry has always practiced on the grassland, taking away what can be taken, and never leaving it to the enemy if it can't be brought. Of course, this is a bit of a waste in the eyes of these Yellow Turban soldiers, but they can't help but have a lot of meat, and what they can't bring can only sigh and resolutely carry out the order to bury it. By now, most of these so-called infantry have been equipped with a war horse, although the war horse is carrying more meat on it.
After receiving the food, the Bingzhou cavalry, who had been holding a large bowl of collar meat, immediately went to the side, and several cavalrymen surrounded them, and everyone began to feast. They grabbed the mutton directly with their hands, shouted and let the hot mutton continue to move in their hands, until the temperature faded slightly, and then they tore it hard, tore the mutton into two or several pieces, and shared it with the cavalry around them. As for drinking soup? That's simple, whoever wants to drink, then pick up the bowl and pour a sip beautifully, and the cavalry after that don't care about the saliva left on the edge of the bowl, still drink it beautifully.
In the army, it is not so particular, it is just saliva, that is, whether the cavalryman who tore the meat before did not wipe his hands after urinating, or the blood of the Xianbei people left on his hands touched the mutton without wiping, and the other cavalry would not care. They are all brothers who were born and died together, more or less they have used their bodies to block swords and arrows for others, life and death are together, that is, after returning to the city, they can go to the Ji Courtyard, a Ji girl They can all share together, not to mention the situation that is happening now?
You don't need too many condiments, only a little salt, which makes this mutton delicious, full of greasy to eat, and has the most primitive sweet and delicious. In just a moment, a bowl of mutton was eaten by many cavalry, which was not enough, the physical exertion on the battlefield was very fast, and the dry food that I had eaten before was just to prevent accidents and cushion the stomach first, and now this is the main meal. The supply was unlimited, and as long as the cavalry could eat it, they could eat it with their bellies open, so the previous cavalry, at the urging of others, went to the cauldron with a large bowl in their hands and waited in line.
Many of the cavalry were extremely calm, and they could be very focused in the battle, tense every nerve, and concentrate on every fight. After fighting in Xiamen, he can quickly remove any defense, as if the previous battles were all vain, and began to repair very comfortably.
It's like a bowstring, and there is a reason for it to be tight and loose. But if any enemy thinks that this is an opportunity, it is wrong, and under the calm, it is full of a kind of self-confidence, they retain the initial vigilance, and can strictly control every intentional or unintentional action. Just don't look at this mutton can be eaten with an open belly, but the fact is that any Bingzhou cavalry will only eat a seven-point full, so as to ensure that there will be no impact on the battle when encountering a battle.
These cavalrymen, who were born in Bingzhou, traveled across the Xianbei grassland, followed Lu Bu for I don't know how long, and how many battles they had experienced, all had their own unique understanding of battle. If measured by the standards of other places, then each of them is an elite soldier, enough to become the most firm cornerstone of a strong army!
