Chapter 646: Food
"Girl, it's late at night, let's go to sleep first." Mrs. Jiang draped the leather cloak over Zhou Tong.
Zhou Tong wrapped the cloak on his body tightly and asked Mrs. Jiang: "Are you sleepy?" ”
Mrs. Jiang smiled: "Just now, a few of us took turns to sleep, and we are in good spirits at this moment." ”
Zhou Tong also smiled, and under the moonlight, the girl's face was even more crystalline.
"Are you going to see if there are any people who aren't sleepy? If there is, they will all be called. ”
Mrs. Jiang's expression was solemn, she had followed Zhou Tong for many years, and there were some things and some things that she didn't need to say.
Mrs. Jiang turned around and left, and after walking a few steps, she saw Second Sister Jiang yawning and coming out of the tent, Mrs. Jiang glared at her: "Go wash your face first, and then take a look at how much dry food you have, all with you!" ”
"What?" Jiang Ermei came out to get up at night, and she was still in the fugue at this time.
"The girl is going to act." Mrs. Jiang said.
"Action?" Jiang Ermei woke up all of a sudden, and the whole person was like being beaten with chicken blood, "Who to kill?" ”
Mrs. Jiang didn't know what to say, her sister-in-law, she was even more excited when she heard about killing people than when she heard about getting married, how could she be good in the future?
Gathered in front of Zhou Tong were thousands of Zuo Yong's men and horses, which were left by the king of Yanbei County to protect his sister and wounded soldiers. Except for that, there are fifty Tartar guards, which is also what the king of Yanbei insisted on staying.
"Miss Tong, the assembly is complete, please instruct." Zuo Yong said.
Zhou Tong said: "After Qi Hu died, how many people were left in his camp?" ”
Zuo Yong smiled: "Qi Hu was not treated by Yang Qin in the first place, even the people with him are like the children of the stepmother, Miss Tong, you not only slaughtered Qi Hu, but also burned their grain and grass, Yang Qin has not sent people to support so far, even Yang Shixun, who is closest to them, is also standing by, Qi Hu originally had more than 2,000 people, this morning we caught two deserters, both of them were in Qi Hu's military camp, there was no food and grass, they didn't want to stay hungry, so they became deserters, under a question, many people ran away in the past two days, if you ask them how many people there are, The last general couldn't tell for a while. ”
Zhou Tong nodded and said, "Idle is idle, let's go and take those people together, we can't watch them starve to death." ”
Zuo Yong said: "Miss Tong, you stay in the camp, and you will bring people over at the end." ”
Zhou Tong said lightly: "They are afraid of me." ”
Zuo Yong was speechless for a while, this is really confident.
After thinking about it, this is Miss Tong, chop off one of Qi Hu's hands in front of the two armies, go deep into the enemy camp, and take the head like a person who probes for things.
If Miss Tong didn't have a face that looked six or seven percent like the prince of the county, let alone Qi Hu's remnants, even they themselves would be afraid of her.
Zuo Yong, like Wu Huzi, is a bandit, and he is not very well-behaved in private, and he has not talked about the beautiful sister of the county prince behind his back.
Occasionally drinking too much, it is inevitable that Xiao Qishao will have some envy and sympathy.
envy him for finding a beautiful daughter-in-law, sympathize with him for finding a powerful daughter-in-law.
Yes, before Xiao Ren and Zhou Tong expressed their intentions, the bandits who had seen them had already imagined their married life.
Zhou Tong frowned slightly, glanced at Zuo Yong, and said, "What's wrong?" ”
Zuo Yong hurriedly recovered from his sympathy for Xiao Ren and hurriedly said, "The last general will prepare immediately." ”
They were all called up by Mrs. Jiang outside the tent, wearing only battle robes and no armor.
Zhou Tong said: "Bring more pine seeds." ”
In this place of Yanbei, there are as many pine seeds as you want.
Zuo Yong responded, but Jiang Ermei looked reluctant: "How good it is to kill them, leave them to take care of the food." ”
Children who grow up in wolves have a strong possessive appetite for food, and as long as there is food in front of them, they must be stuffed into their stomachs to be safe.
For these humans who are about to grab food from her, Jiang Ermei has a deep hostility.
She didn't speak loudly, but it still fell into Zhou Tong's ears.
She turned her head and stared at Jiang Ermei firmly: "Tonight, you can only kill when I ask you to kill, otherwise, I won't give you meat to eat, and I won't give it in the future." ”
Second Sister Jiang drooped her eyelids and snorted from her nose, yes or no.
Zhou Tong ignored her, and Mrs. Jiang came over with her armor in her hand, and while helping Zhou Tong put it on, she glared at Jiang Ermei fiercely.
Second Sister Jiang was indifferent, in this world, except for her brother who brought her back from the wolves, she only listened to Zhou Tong alone.
Because, if Zhou Tong didn't give her meat, then unless she secretly went hunting, no one would dare to give her meat.
Second Sister Jiang is very lazy, she is too lazy to hunt.
Putting on the armor, Zhou Tong strode forward, and Jiang Ermei had to shake it one step at a time to follow.
Mrs. Jiang shook her head helplessly, this sister-in-law, except for the spirit when she kills, I don't know if she is asleep or awake at other times, no wonder the family of the son-in-law treated her as a useless sick cat.
I don't know if that family is dead at this time?
This dead girl sold people without even saying hello, what a pot of meat.
......
In the barracks at night, a sentry looked around, the guards on duty with him were dozing, he quietly took out a frozen corn tortilla from his arms, the corn tortilla had already eaten half, he looked at it with pity, and then carefully took a small bite.
He had long been accustomed to hunger.
His family has been pearl diving for generations, although the price of pearls is far lower than the market price of Dongzhu, but it is enough to ensure that his family has enough food and clothing for several generations, whether it is the Tartar or the Yan King, his family is still rich.
Later, Yang Qin came, increased the tax of Dongzhu, the merchants collected the Dongzhu, and had to risk their lives to bring it to the Guannei, one came and went, and the merchants who came to collect the Dongzhu became fewer and fewer, and the pearl divers could not sell their beads, but they could not exchange for firewood, rice, oil and salt, except for pearl diving, they had no other means of making a living, they would not farm, they would only dive pearls.
When the government comes to recruit soldiers, a soldier can be exchanged for ten taels of silver, and ten taels of silver is enough to make a large family eat for a few months.
He and a few brothers came out to serve as a soldier together, thinking that being a soldier would at least be able to eat a full stomach, but he didn't expect that the barracks were not much better than his family, and he still couldn't eat.
On the contrary, he came out to fight, and occasionally he could eat a few full meals. But the first two days all the grain and grass were burned, and they began to go hungry again.
For those who have been hungry for many years, it has become natural to hide food.
This tortilla was hidden a few days ago.
In the past two days, some people fainted from hunger, and some ran away, but he didn't run, and he survived by this tortilla.
The sentry carried the uneaten tortillas into his bosom again, and he did not know when the Grand Governor would be able to send for the grain, which was all he had before it arrived.
