Chapter 327: The Problem of Food
The time is almost pinched, several armies have returned one after another, people are scattered very open, it takes some time to gather again, fortunately, Lu Bu's army did not take advantage of the situation to catch up, as for the reason, of course, it is very simple, the camp has been broken and has not retreated, not to mention that after fighting for so long, their battle line has been stretched for a long time, there are enemy troops everywhere, and they have not caused any major damage to Jizhou, and they have been like playing eagles to catch chickens, or hide and seek, and they have been fighting for so long.
After the army was assembled, Lin Sen led the army back to the camp quickly, the most difficult thing in the middle of the night was not the enemy, but this damn ghost weather, there was nothing during the battle, and on the way back to the camp after the truce, I felt that it was really cold and biting, and I couldn't wait to return to the camp early, eat meat, drink some wine, and lie down in the warm quilt to rest and rest.
"Fengxiao, are you ready? The soldiers fought fiercely in the middle of the night, they were all hungry and cold, and they hurriedly ordered the logistics staff to serve wine and meat and move the braziers. ”
"Don't worry, my lord, everything is ready, the wine is scalded, and it has all been moved into the soldiers' tents, and they can eat it when they go back."
Lin Sen was also cold, ordered the army to disband, and went back to the tent to eat, drink and rest, he led a cadre of generals to the big tent of the Chinese army, and only when he was hungry did he know the fragrance of the rice, and smelled the aroma of the wine, meat and food in the tent Everyone couldn't be calm, but there were rules, Lin Sen hadn't sat down yet, let them sit down, how could they sit down first, they couldn't be unruly.
"I won't talk about so many rules today, and it's been a difficult night for you, so sit down quickly, eat and drink, quickly."
Immediately the people sat around. They all looked at Lin Sen, and Lin Sen smiled. Pick up the glass and say, "Dry." After speaking, he tilted his neck. After drinking it, he drank white wine, which was warm, and his whole body felt warm in his stomach.
"It's all said, no need to be formal, you're doing very well today, hurry up and eat, come, cheers." Lin Sen watched everyone finish their drink and looked at him again. Worthy of his many years of instruction, one by one really understands the rules too well, raised a glass again, drank it, and then began to eat meat, going out to fight is definitely not as delicious as it was made in Jizhou Mansion, but they are all hungry, and they eat like delicacies from the mountains and seas.
This meal is limited to two pots of wine per soldier, a total of two catties. There were a little more than usual, and they were all warm, and they were warm to drink, and the cold of the night was immediately eliminated. Eat meat in large chunks and drink in large gulps, so unpleasant!
Lin Sen's camp is happy. It's a beautiful sight.
On the other hand, Lü Bu's side was in trouble that could be encountered, and when Lü Bu returned to the old camp with his army. Not even a single enemy could be seen, and the three large camps were empty. All the tents were waving, and even the wooden fences around the camp were so badly damaged that they could not be defended against them, and now the sky was gradually brightening, and everything was clearly visible, and it was a real mess.
"General, Lord Chen, all the heavy grain and grass we have hoarded in the camp have been destroyed, the equipment can no longer be used, and the grain is spilled everywhere, but the quantity is very small, even if we pack it up, we can only use it today."
The rain still has no intention of stopping, the weather is cold and cold, the destruction of the camp tent is first to solve the problem of rest, fortunately, these guilds have already prepared in their bags, they have taken out the camp tent, handed it to the soldiers to quickly set it up, and have taken out a batch of wine, meat, grain and rice, now is not the time to care, the key is to solve the current trouble.
The soldiers began to get busy, and some players who couldn't stand it asked for leave from the top of their guilds and hurried offline, they all recognized the master, and even if they went offline to rest, the army would obey the transfer.
Soon the camp tents were built, basically in the original position, the wooden bed was already wet, and it was impossible to rest well, but finally there was a place, the quilt was still very dry, and two more layers could warm a lot.
Cooking is a big problem, a lot of players are going to scold the street, the virtual reality can't be so real, the firewood used to cook has also been destroyed, the temporary rainproof shed has been lifted, most of them are soaked by the rain, and they can only be used by the firewood in the middle, some of which are also a little damp, and they can barely be used.
A large cauldron is provided, all provided by the player, and the number is also very limited, cooking rice and stewing meat in the shed, the wine is distributed first, and it is not warmed with hot water, but drinking some wine can always warm the body a little.
After the big tent of the Chinese army was built, Lu Bu hurriedly walked in, although he has invincible martial arts, but how to say that he is also a human, not a god, he can't stand the weather so cold, he just can't go offline like a player, otherwise it's really hard to say.
Rice, meat, pot after pot stew, sent out one after another, first of all, Lu Bu, these high-ranking officials, as well as those high-ranking guild leaders, and then the army, gradually began to eat.
Of course, Lu Bu didn't think about fighting today, the rain had gradually lightened, and it would definitely stop before noon, and the army had finished eating and went back to their camps to rest, and Lu Bu and Chen Gong still had to worry about the problem of food and grass.
At present, their form is in danger, the north and south of the Yellow River cannot be connected, even if a certain amount of grain and grass are hoarded in Luoyang, they cannot transport it, Xiaopingjin Ferry is temporarily occupied by Gan Ning, it is impossible to come from here, they do not have a water division that is Gan Ning's opponent.
It's too embarrassing, they still have two ways to choose two days ago, and now this situation has been cut off, they have lost the opportunity to fight desperately with Lin Sen, and now they can only either starve to death or retreat, even if they want to transfer heavy grain and grass from Luoyang, it will take time if they don't come from Xiaopingjin Ferry, can they hold on until then?
After a day's rest, Lin Sen's side was well prepared and the logistics were good, even if the soldiers fought in the rain for half the night, after getting rest, there were almost no patients, and I believe that after another day of rest, they can go to battle again.
In contrast, Lu Bu's side is much more miserable, cold, damp and fighting have caused their army to have a large-scale illness, and there is a tendency to get worse, by the night, the ten pavilions have fallen ill five pavilions, the combat effectiveness has been greatly damaged, they have no logistics, the regular logistics personnel are also running last night, the injuries and illnesses can not be treated, can only rely on the soldiers' own immunity to carry it, carry it and live, if you can't carry it, it will be a death, there is no other way.
Such a big trouble is worse than the lack of food, and the next day, Lu Bu's army began to die, just one or two deaths, and it did not attract the attention of Lu Bu and others, and it is normal to go out to fight and kill a few people.
Lu Bu had already made up his mind at this time that he would never withdraw his troops if he did not defeat Lin Sen, he had a secret chat with Chen Gong yesterday, and said what he thought in his heart, he was going to make food on those player guilds that were attached to him, and the two of them knew in their hearts that although these players had paid part of the grain and grass baggage, there must be a large number of private food, as long as they handed over this part of the food, they would have no worries and could continue to fight against Lin Sen.
Chen Gong has no other way, since Lu Bu is determined not to retreat, he can only collect food from those players, and then transport logistics supplies from other places, as long as there is food, they still have an advantage at present, after all, Lin Sen's troops are far less than them, and the probability of their victory on the frontal battlefield is very high.
In fact, from yesterday to today, the food used by the army is provided by the players, and they also know that this is a time of crisis, if they don't fully support Lu Bu, then after Lu Bu is defeated, they will be next, especially those guilds of the divisions, they are currently grasshoppers in the same boat with Lu Bu, and they can't escape.
Today, Lu Bu officially told all the high-level officials under his command what he thought, those people in the division did not have radical opinions, it was difficult for them to be alone, and other people who came to him had different opinions, and they were very reluctant to take out private food, including Lin Sen's old enemies, and some guilds were purely for profit, and chose Lu Bu's camp, in the past half a month, no benefits have been obtained, but they have suffered heavy losses, and they may be able to accept the loss of soldiers and horses, but the loss of money and food is serious, At present, when it comes to this dilemma, Lu Bu does not find a way to solve it himself, but wants to squeeze them, which is really unacceptable to them.
In the end, the two sides definitely broke up unhappily, Lu Bu was very angry, and even thought about killing these people in the court, but fortunately, Chen Gong has been soothing with kind words.
"These damn moths dare to disobey my military orders."
