Chapter 175: Offering

The fragrance of tea in Zhu Zhi's room was overflowing, and a fresh fragrance poured into Lin Ran's nostrils, making people feel very comfortable. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

As soon as Lin Ran entered the room, he took a deep breath of the air in Zhu Zhi's room that stirred the fragrance of tea, Lin Ran has been on the city wall for the past two days, commanding the battle on the front line of the battle, and what he sees every day is the stench and fishy smell produced by the decay of blood and corpses, and being able to breathe a breath of fresh, clean and fragrant air at this time is a very rare thing for Lin Ran now.

"Xiaobai, come and taste the tea I just brewed." Zhu Zhi invited Lin Ran to sit down and said to Lin Ran warmly.

Regarding tea, although Lin Ran has not studied too deeply, and only knows a little fur, as a modern person, he knows more about nature than Zhu Zhi, so every time he makes tea, Zhu Zhi always asks Lin Ran to come over and ask for advice.

Lin Ran took the teacup and took a sip, the fragrance of the tea lingered on the tip of the tongue, which did not dissipate for a long time, and had a long aftertaste, accompanied by a hint of sweetness and bursts of refreshing aroma.

"Bang bang." Lin Ran clapped his hands and praised: "Brother Zhu is really talented and intelligent, and he has studied the art of tea to such a high level so quickly, which is already better than the craftsmanship of many experts in this field." ”|

Expert? Called a beast? What kind of beast is a beast?

Although Zhu Zhi didn't understand what Lin Ran said just now, he had also seen many adventurers, and he did often say things they didn't understand, which was not a strange thing. He could simply know from his expression that Lin Ran was exaggerating his tea art.

"More than half of this is due to you. By the way, Xiaobai, are you in a hurry when you come to me? ”

Zhu Zhi put down the teacup, stared at Lin Ran and asked.

Lin Ran also put down the teacup in his hand and said solemnly to Zhu Zhi: "I heard that there is a shortage of food in the city, and there is only enough food for three days, is it true?" ”

"Xiaobai, how do you know? Didn't General Zhou Ye have already tightly sealed this news? Zhu Zhi was surprised, he also just found out about this, Xiaobai obviously hadn't been there, how did he know?

"Don't talk about me yet. Is there a real shortage of food in the city? Lin Ran waved his hand, and didn't want to tell Zhu Zhi how he knew, in fact, this is also simple, there are many people in the city, no matter how tightly this kind of news is blocked, it is difficult to ensure that it will not be known by a few coincidental players, and then discuss it on the forum, now the Internet is full of these posts about the battle situation in Yiyang City, as long as people who are online, they can easily know these news.

Zhu Zhi nodded and said: "That's true, this matter really can't be hidden, General Pingdong has ordered that a piece of military food be divided into three parts, hoping to support it for a few more days." ”

"This is just a drop in the bucket, this battle is definitely not something that can be solved in ten days and half a month, so it won't help." Lin Ran calmly analyzed.

Zhu Zhi nodded, suddenly thought of something, and said in surprise: "That's indeed the case...... Xiaobai, do you have a way? ”

Lin Ran smiled and nodded, "I have a plan, but I don't know if Brother Zhu can help me introduce it to General Zhou." ”

"Xiaobai, do you really have a way?" Zhu Zhi was overjoyed and said: "We can't ask for this, I will immediately help you introduce you to General Pingdong." If you can solve the problem of our army's military rations, Xiaobai, you should be the first to fight against the Yellow Turban Army this time. ”

Under the leadership of Zhu Zhi, Lin Ran quickly entered the county governor's mansion where Zhou Ye temporarily commanded the troops in the city, and waited outside the door for Zhu Zhi's report.

"Are you the village chief of Xiaobai?" A pro-soldier came out and asked Lin Ran.

Lin Ran nodded and said, "That's right." ”

"Please come in, General Pingdong is invited." The soldiers bowed their hands to Lin Ran and said respectfully.

Lin Ran entered the county governor's mansion under the leadership of his own soldiers, and there were a number of imperial army generals and colonels standing on both sides of the hall in the mansion, and on the main seat was Zhou Ye, the general of Pingdong, who was dressed in a drape.

"In Xia Xiaobai Village, Lin Ran, meet General Pingdong."

Lin Ran bowed. Unlike the extremely strict monarchy of the later feudal dynasties, the Han Dynasty was not as perverted and strict as the later generations in terms of etiquette, and there were no titles such as kneeling and servants who enslaved their subordinates.

Zhou Ye raised his hand to signal Lin Ran to get up, glanced at Zhu Zhi below, and then asked Lin Ran: "Listen to General Zhu, do you have a way to solve the shortage of military food?" ”

Lin Ran nodded and said, "Yes, there is a way to solve the crisis of food shortage for the army in the city." ”

The generals around Lin Ran were talking for a while, and most of their words were disdainful and sarcastic.

"A small village chief, what can be done?"

"We captains and generals can't do anything, what good ideas can he have?"

"This kid can't be honest, there should be a way. But there are more than 100,000 people in the city, where can he get so much food? ”

There were voices of doubt and suspicion all around, but the expression on Lin Ran's face was still not salty or light, and he said in a tone that was not in a hurry: "Whether it is successful or not, please listen to the next word first, and you can know." ”

Zhou Ye nodded and said, "Say it." ”

Lin Ran said: "Now the Yellow Turban Army outside the city has surrounded the entire Yiyang City, and the supply line of our army has been completely cut off by the other party, and the food in the city is only three days' food. In this case, if you want to get enough food and grass for the 100,000 army, there is only one place where you can get it! “

"Where?" The people around Lin Ran were all hung up in their appetites, and even Zhou Ye looked at Lin Ran nervously, wondering in his heart, all the food in the city had been requisitioned by the army, how else could he get so much food?

Lin Ran smiled, raised his hand and pointed straight to the direction of the Yellow Turban Army outside the gate of the county governor's mansion.

"I heard that the grain and grass obtained by the Yellow Turban Army outside the city plundered around are hoarded in the Red River Valley east of Yiyang City, which is enough for hundreds of thousands of loads, enough for 200,000 troops to use for more than two months, if our army can surprise the Red River Valley and obtain hundreds of thousands of loads of grain and grass in the other party's valley, not only can our army hold on to Yiyang City for a long time, but also after a large number of Yellow Turban thieves have no grain and grass, the army will be disheartened and will definitely retreat!

Our army only needs to launch a surprise attack at this time, and we will definitely be able to defeat this gang of thieves in one fell swoop. ”

"Good!"

"That's very good."

"It's bold. This little white village chief is really a person with some ability. ”

When the people in the house heard this, they nodded frequently, and this plan was analyzed very thoroughly, organized, and very feasible.

Zhou Ye stroked his beard with his hand, the corners of his eyes raised slightly, and agreed: "Yes, if this operation can be successful, it will definitely be able to reverse the tide of battle in one fell swoop!" (To be continued.) )
