Chapter 844: Material Problems
Ruan Ming's question caught Lin Xuanzhong unexpectedly, speaking of which, Lin Xuanzhong really didn't want to die, especially now that there were two beautiful flowers by his side, Lin Xuanzhong just wanted to stay away from those who were afraid of death.
"Vice General Ruan deliberately guessed the general's thoughts, could it be that he had something wrong with the general?" Since the other party embarrassed himself, Lin Xuanzhong felt that he should stick to his previous thoughts and continue to talk to the two girls after thinking about it for a while.
"The wine in the army has already been drunk by the general, why is the general inexplicably drunk this early in the morning?" As a result, before Ruan Ming could speak, Xue Yin's playful voice came.
"Lord Xueyin, what you said is not right, the general is not drunk, but he is distracted by this beautiful scenery," the next time, Ruan Ming was not far behind and followed behind to make fun of Lin Xuanzhong. Regardless of whether Lin Xuanzhong likes himself or not, but according to the recent period of getting along, Ruan Ming has seen that Lin Xuanzhong has that kind of shy and humble son-like temperament, so he knows that Lin Xuanzhong is deliberately flamboyant just now.
originally wanted to make fun of the two girls, but now he was teased by the two girls, Lin Xuanzhong was so embarrassed that he really had a feeling of self-embarrassment. It was also at this time that Lin Xuanzhong realized that it was a mistake to talk to the two women in the same oily tone just now, if he had been as melancholy and far-sighted as the two women imagined at the beginning, maybe the current situation would not have occurred, in the end, everything was self-inflicted.
Looking at the otherworldly beauty of the two girls again, Lin Xuanzhong slowly frowned, and thought with some embarrassment whether he should let the two girls go down first, otherwise he would not be able to stay. However, Lin Xuanzhong remembered another thing that he had finally figured out last night, and he had to be optimistic no matter what situation he encountered next, so it seemed better to keep the two girls by his side.
"The scenery is beautiful, but it is not as beautiful as the two girls. Under the fragrance of the two girls, the beautiful scenery in front of them is just a foil, is it wrong to praise the two for their beauty?"
"The general openly praised me and Vice General Ruan's appearance, could it be that he fell in love with the two of us? It seems that the general's heart is really broad-minded!" It is rare to have a conversation with Lin Xuanzhong like this, and he simply made fun of Lin Xuanzhong's meaning.
"Ben Jiang is just out of an appreciation angle, the two girls don't have to misunderstand," shaking his head, Lin Xuanzhong finally knew how powerful Xue Yin was. Frightened, he quickly shifted his gaze to the undulating mountains, and from a distance, this winding and circling mountain land was really vast, but unfortunately it was too desolate, there were no trees, and it looked a little less vibrant.
"In that case, Adjutant General Ruan, let's go back first, so that the general alone can appreciate and appreciate the great scenery here. ”
"It's all up to the great pharmacist to arrange," In fact, when Lin Xuanzhong invited the two girls to travel together, Ruan Ming didn't want to come because of the relationship between the two, but after Xue Yin's persuasion, he had to agree. Now that Xue Yin said that she was leaving, Ruan Ming naturally had no opinion.
"Both of you seem to have forgotten your identity, Ben will remind you that Ben will have the final say here," said that, but somehow, Lin Xuanzhong couldn't show some momentum as a general anyway, and as a result, this sentence made Lin Xuanzhong even less imposing.
"Does the general still want to bully others and bully our two little women?" Xue Yin smiled faintly, feeling more and more that today's Lin Xuanzhong was very special.
"What's the matter, what's the matter, what's the matter, you don't have anything to do when you go back," he knew that he couldn't say anything, so Lin Xuanzhong had no choice but to take it casually.
As the three of them continued to talk, countless eyes were staring at the figures of the three people with envy at the location of the camp at the foot of the mountain.
"The general is really interested, the weather is just fine today, and the general will take the two beauties in the army to enjoy the scenery," after noticing that the three people on the mountain seemed to be talking, one general also took the initiative to find others to talk about it.
"If I'm not mistaken, there is a female deputy general in the rear army, who is not inferior in appearance to Deputy General Ruan and the Great Pharmacist, if you have the ability, you might as well go to someone to talk to you. ”
"How dare I, that's the daughter-in-law of the Ni family, do you think I don't know the details of Vice General Han. ”
"I think you're deliberately making excuses, what Ni daughter-in-law, you're obviously afraid that people won't look down on you like a bear. ”
"Hey, do you think your looks are so much better than mine, do you want to try it?"
"Forget it, General Zhang just arranged a task for us, if we can't get food for a hundred people today, we don't have to come back in the evening. ”
"It is also said that there is less and less food and grass in the army, and if there are no more reinforcements, we will have to starve to death here before Yang Guo attacks us. ”
"Still, you have to be grateful to the General, or you would have been a corpse when you went to attack the lockdown. ”
"Those bastards, when the master has eaten his full stomach, he will definitely beat them all over the ground looking for teeth," the two men said and talked about the problems in the army, and their mood became depressed.
It can be seen from the conversation between the two that it is still the early stage of the shortage of grain and grass, and the personnel in the army are in good condition. Lin Xuanzhong not only made the army in the best condition, but also tried to maintain this state as much as possible.
Earlier, when Lin Xuanzhong was close to the soldiers to stabilize the morale of the army, Zhang Jiutian handled all the affairs of the army without trust, and there were no disputes in the past.
Originally, the 100,000 night troops transferred from the night country have now entered the border of Yangguo, but they received the news too late, and now they want to rescue Lin Xuanzhong and them, and they have to rush here from the northwest border of Yangguo, no less than ten days of travel, and there will be friction with some cities in Yangguo along the way. Although there are many ordinary siege ladders, without large siege engines, that army will still move slowly. Fortunately, the border of Yangguo is a small city, which cannot withstand the onslaught of 100,000 troops, not to mention that the person who leads the troops is Bai Shuilian, another commander of the Night Country.
Bai Shuilian is Bai Ye's uncle, long before sending troops, Bai Shuilian heard Bai Ye mention about Lin Xuanzhong. After receiving the news of Bai Ye's death and knowing that the battle of Fancheng was because of Lin Xuanzhong's great victory, Bai Shuilian felt that Bai Ye's death was very glorious for the country and the people, and at the same time she was more optimistic about Lin Xuanzhong, so after knowing that Lin Xuanzhong was among the trapped people, Bai Shuilian kept speeding up the march.
Day and night, now the 100,000 night army has rushed to the rescue at the fastest marching speed, but it is a pity that the territory of Yangguo is mountainous, it is not easy to march, and there are cities where people live, and there are many cities blocking this way, Bai Shuilian is not sure how long it will take to reach the station of the night army hundreds of miles away.
Putting aside the situation of the support army, it was time to stand on the mountain for a stick of incense, because he felt that having two women in the mountain would always affect him, Lin Xuanzhong still let the two women go back first, and then sat on the mountain alone thinking about the past and the future.
I remember that I was trapped in the Northern Wilderness Mountain Range with Fang Qing a long time ago, although I was in danger at that time, it seemed to feel much better than now, Lin Xuanzhong couldn't forget how vividly it was under the spring rain. After going through a lot of things and getting used to life and death, everything seems to have changed. Even the same scene will not give people the same feeling, whether such a change is good or bad, Lin Xuanzhong has no way of being sure, and it is precisely because of this that Lin Xuanzhong feels a little dazed.
Obviously, all the difficulties are in front of you but there is no way to deal with them, the reality is indeed helpless, and after some emotion, Lin Xuanzhong soon thought of the various problems caused by the lack of materials in the army. If there is no material replenishment, no matter what method is used, it will not be able to improve the morale of the army, thinking that the morale of the army will get worse and worse, Lin Xuanzhong has no interest in fighting with some generals again, and he is also not interested in teaching some people to practice, because Lin Xuanzhong knows that practicing will consume physical strength, and the loss of physical strength will make people hungry faster.
Once hunger becomes a common phenomenon, there will be many unstable factors in the army, and Lin Xuanzhong is afraid of the worst, so Lin Xuanzhong feels that he should save his physical strength. Of course, Lin Xuanzhong was not afraid that he would not be able to hold on, but he was afraid that some people in the army would not be able to bear it.
According to the plan, the daily rations of the soldiers were reduced, and some war horses were slaughtered, and the current food could last for five days. After five days, when the food runs out, they will go to the end of their own country without a call. The last five days were the army's last chance, and Lin Xuanzhong needed to find a way to live, a way to ensure that everyone would survive, but their situation was no different from before.
The Gu army has indeed withdrawn, but the lockdown and the sword city are still eyeing them, and now there are a large number of martial arts in both cities, and the siege has become more difficult. They were unaware of the enemy's movements, but the enemy knew their situation, and after the previous attacks, the arrows and other items in the army were only enough for a siege. To put it simply, after the hard work dragged on to today, combined with various factors, they only have one chance to attack the city.
Still like before, they can choose to attack the city, or they can continue to stay in the camp, but one thing is for sure, whether it is a sword city or a closed city, there are now enough defenders in the two city gates, and the materials for defending the city are even more sufficient, and the rain did not affect the people in the two cities to prepare to defend the city.
According to the news from the spies sent out before, the two cities are now fully prepared, and more information is needed to determine whether they will send troops. The difficulty of obtaining information is still a major factor limiting the Night Army's movements, but in short, Lin Xuanzhong has been waiting for news that will be useful to them.
