The weather gradually cooled, and Sun Shao also returned from Yuzhang County. As for the result of his conversation with Sun Yu, Sun Shao didn't say it, and Qishi didn't ask.

Qishi went out of the city to greet Sun Shao, Sun Shao was dusty, but Qishi still welcomed him with a hug, "Childe, it's been hard along the way!" ”

"Ah Shi, the wind is so strong, go back to the city quickly." Sun Shao looked at Qi Shi's thin body and said with concern.

"It doesn't matter, but the son has worked hard to bring so many supplies to Chaisang City." About two dozen carts drove into Chaisang City from in front of them, loaded with clothes and forage that Sun Yu, the Taishou of Yuzhang, had allocated to Chaisang City.

In the winter south of the Yangtze River, the temperature is not too high, and if it rains for several days in a row, the temperature will drop suddenly. Without adequate cold protection equipment, people can easily lose temperature, leading to typhoid fever.

And in this day and age, a small cold, if left untreated, can quickly take a person's life.

Although it is said that Qi Shi took precautions and let Zhi Shaochen run his business channel, there are some materials that are very cyclical, and they will not be able to raise too large quantities for a while.

Qi Shi did not ask Sun Shao for this matter, but Sun Shao always kept it in mind. A month ago, he went to Yuzhang County and told Sun Yu about it, and sure enough, he got the supplies.

"Isn't it the most important thing for us to let the soldiers and people survive the winter safely? Now we can breathe a sigh of relief. ”

Qi Shi shook his head and said, "Childe, I'm afraid I won't be able to spend the winter with peace of mind." ”

Sun Shao said: "Is something wrong?" The river is beginning to freeze, is Jingzhou moving again? ”

If a force wants to launch a winter campaign, then it will have to pay far more materials and costs than usual, and the logistics line of an army can be dragged down by just the warmth and logistics of the soldiers, and the firewood for cooking and heating.

And fighting on the water, in addition to these material preparations, soldiers need additional protection and a good enough food supply. In short, no matter how big or small, every detail is the key point. If any detail is not properly handled, it may lead to the collapse of the entire army, and then lead to the defeat of the campaign.

Qi Shi said: "It's Yuzhang Shanyue, they attacked our caravan the day before yesterday. Killed seven people. ”

Not to mention the loss of materials, Chaisang's caravan was also attacked in the past, and everything was looted, but fortunately, there was nothing wrong with the people. Therefore, Chaisang also protested with Yuzhang Shanyue, and did not take active military measures for the time being, but only accompanied two soldiers in the caravan as a defense.

As a result, there are now lives, and so many people have died. In Qishi's eyes, even if there is a casualty of one person, it touches her bottom line.

Sun Shao's brows tightened suddenly, and he said in a deep voice: "Is there any response over there?" Who are the dead? ”

Qi Shi said: "Yesterday I sent someone to negotiate, but I was still thinking about ambushing our envoy, but fortunately, the envoy was clever and escaped back." Six caravans died, and one of our soldiers, whom you also know......"

Sun Shao said nervously: "Which one is it?" ”

"It's my former chief of guard, I always call him Haha." Qi Shi's face was expressionless, but Sun Shao could feel that Qi Shi must be suppressing his anger.

Sun Shao took Qishi's hand, and Qishi's hand was cold. "Haha, it's such a good martial arts...... How so? ”

He wouldn't have been in that caravan, but he had to take a leave of absence that day to pick out a small toy from Nanyang for his daughter, so he set off with the caravan. If it's a head-to-head confrontation, I don't think a dozen people will be the opponent of Haha. Yuzhang Shanyue used the most despicable methods, they pretended to be friendly and suddenly attacked. This matter is very bad, everyone else has arrived, just waiting for Childe to hold an emergency meeting. ”

Sun Shao said: "Ah Shi, I understand. There is no need to have a meeting, you must fight, and you must pay it back. Let's go into the city. ”

In the Chaisang County Ya, everyone has arrived. Among them, Gan Xingba's face was extremely ugly, but he still sat on the chair and did not leave his post without permission, and directly attacked Shanyue.

Seeing Sun Shao and Qi Shi coming in, Wei Baohu stood up and said, "Lord and military advisor, the Qingyun Army has been prepared and can be drawn at any time." ”

Ma Long stood up, hugged his fists and said: "The Lujiang Shangjia has been assembled, and the last general will ask for battle!" ”

Zhi Shaochen said: "The family members of the Jiaozhou Chamber of Commerce have been mobilized, and they must pay off the blood debt of Yuzhang Shanyue!" ”

Li Yu said: "Chaisang Minfu is ready to support logistics!" ”

Sun Shao looked at a room of people, and saw that they were all indignant and their morale was high, he nodded vigorously and said, "On the way here, I have already discussed with Ah Shi, and there are two main tasks in Chaisang City next. The first is to ensure that the progress of infrastructure construction does not slow down, which requires the overall arrangement of Zhi Shaochen and Li Yu. The second is that our whole army will go out into the mountains to suppress bandits! ”

All the people shouted, "The last general will command!" ”

At the moment, Qi Shi and the foot trainer will distribute the next battle plan. This is the first actual combat test since the integration of the Chaisang camp for three months.

After everyone received the task, they left one after another to make intensive preparations. The dispatch of troops is scheduled for tomorrow morning, and they are not afraid that Yuzhang Mountain will know more, but on the contrary, they will make a big show and publicize it widely.

Sun Shao, Qi Shi and Gan Ning were soon left in the room, and when the task was assigned just now, Gan Ning never spoke. There are three reasons, one is that the lord has no generals, and as the oldest general, he cannot take the initiative to grab credit. Second, the military division did not assign tasks, and he could not interfere with military deployments. The third is his Jinfan water thief, who is good at water warfare, rather than bandits in a mountainous environment. The city of Chaisang is located in a dangerous place, and they also have to maintain the safety of the waters.

It can also be seen that Gan Ning has now fully integrated into this camp, knows how to suppress his temperament, and obeys orders.

"Brother Gan, I feel very heartbroken about Haha's sacrifice. Although he only served as my chief guard for a while, he gave me a lot of help, and I was really heartbroken when I was escorted to many dangers......" As he spoke, Qi Shi's eyes turned red and his words began to choke.

Sun Shao walked up to Gan Ning and shook Gan Ning's hand hard, Gan Ning stood up and said, "My lord, military advisor, to this day, I understand that everyone is running around for my business. I won't say anything else, I will definitely guard this Chaisang City, the city is in the people, and the city is in disgrace! ”

Qishi wiped away his tears and said, "Brother Gan, with you stationed in Chaisang, I am a hundred people at ease." I also ask you to rest assured, haha will take a person's life, I will let Yuzhang Shanyue use a hundred people to compensate! ”
