Chapter 9: Where is the Captain now?
After getting the money, the mouth of the grain station official was also much looser, explaining the difference between big and small work.
Killing or capturing an ordinary Loulan soldier can be a small achievement;
Kill a 100 general/500 master/commander/lieutenant to get 1, 10, 40, 100 merits, and double the number of prisoners.
The training cost of the Loulan cavalry is almost five times that of ordinary Qingzhou soldiers, so they can get five small merits, and the same is true for big merits.
Jiang Chen's strategy of "car formation + bluff" indirectly led to the death of hundreds of Loulan cavalry, but the main actors were still the captain himself and many Qingzhou soldiers.
Fifty small merits are already a relatively generous reward.
Moreover.
"Give him fifty small merits" combined with the words that Zhang Longxiang said before, such as "I, Zhang, am the No. 1 medical family in Qingzhou, with countless secret medicines, and you can also enjoy great discounts in the army, and you can also exchange military merits for a low-grade secret medicine for healing, and you can recover your health within three days", there is a subtext-
Meat and bone balls, half price!
This is one of Zhang Longxiang's unique permissions as the sister-in-law of the Zhang family in Qingzhou, and all drugs in the army can be used at a low price.
Between words.
The grain officer put the broken silver into his bag without a trace, and then took out another silk book from his arms, handed it to Jiang Chen, and said in a deep voice:
"Watch for a moment at most, hurry up, I'll go and count the remnants of the grain and grass later."
"Thank you, sir."
Jiang Chen took the silk book, and just opened the first side of the silk book, he was stunned and said in shock:
"The secret of the defeat of the captain with the remnants of the army and the defeat of thousands of Loulan cavalry is so clearly written in this great merit exchange list?"
The grain station official showed a haughty expression and said contemptuously:
"If you make immortal contributions to the Western Army, you will naturally be qualified to learn it."
Jiang Chen looked down.

…………
There are only a few dozen items or exercises on the list of great merits, but each of them is particularly eye-catching and unforgettable.
It wasn't until the grain official coughed twice that Jiang Chen was reluctant to give up and put down the silk book.
"Have you figured out what you're going to exchange? Meat white bone balls? The grain officer squinted, always feeling that the rookie in front of him had some other thoughts.
Jiang Chen put his hands behind his back, made small movements, and said with a smile, "My lord, the general promised to give me the secret medicine, which can be regarded as the qualification to buy Zhang's medicine at half price, at most fifty small merits, right?" ”
A hint of coldness appeared at the corner of the grain officer's mouth, and he said solemnly:
"I clearly remember that the preferential medicine that the general said is a low-grade secret medicine for healing injuries, and the only one that meets the requirements is the meat and white bone pills, as a lieutenant's cronies, how can I misinterpret the intention?"
Undoubtedly.
The grain officer felt that the few taels of silver just now were not enough for him to misinterpret his intentions.
Word.
Gotta ~ add ~ money!
Connection.
Not far behind him, Chen Buxing comprehended, and put the five taels of silver in his arms, as well as the silver in the hands of Gongsun Hu and Xiao Wu, into the swinging palm behind Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen smiled, wrapped fifteen taels of silver under the Great Meritorious Silk Book, returned it to the grain official, and said sincerely: "The things I exchanged are all produced by the Zhang family, and I ask you to be more accommodating." ”
The grain officer quickly stuffed the silver taels into the entrainment, and his eyes softened slightly, "Okay, I believe that the general is also willing to cultivate you as a talent." ”
Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief and said the needs that he had already thought of:
"An iron cloth shirt cheats, ten copies of dog skin plasters, plus thirty blood-replenishing grass fruits."
Hear the words.
The grain officer looked a little surprised, but still didn't say anything.
He summoned a Qingzhou soldier, took the cheats of the iron cloth shirt and the medicine needed by Jiang Chen from the private treasury, and then hurried to count the remaining grain and grass.
Looking at the grain trucks that burned most of them, the grain station official wanted to cry without tears: "These are all new cars I just picked up from the Ministry of Industry!" ”
After a cup of tea.
After Zhang Longxiang himself, the grain station official and a number of small officials, repeatedly counted and calculated:
There is no loss in the private treasury of the school captain,
Ten quintals of tea bricks, a little loss,
Five hundred head of cattle and sheep, nearly half of which were lost.
Eight thousand five hundred quintals of grain and grass, more than half of which were burned,
Sixty quintals of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, the loss is negligible,
All forty cars of winter clothes were burned out, and not a single one was left.
There were 145 horses and camels, most of which were difficult to recover.
There were 2,000 Qingzhou soldiers, about 500 were killed or seriously wounded in battle, nearly 300 fled but did not return, and countless were slightly wounded.
Furthermore.
More than 4,300 people have been included in the list of fugitives and have not yet returned.
Today's battle can be described as a painful and heavy loss!
The chief of the grain station sighed:
"That's it, the most important forty cars of winter clothes have also been burned, and when we return to the barracks, those guys, I'm afraid they're going to trouble us~"
…………
In the captain's tent, the air was low and gloomy.
Hundred generals, five hundred lords and thousand commanders, there were still thirteen people, and almost all of them were wounded.
They sat on either side, looking up at the person in the first seat, and they all held back a sigh of resentment in their hearts.
It was the sudden coma of the lieutenant that caused the morale of the Qingzhou soldiers to collapse, and even the black-robed cavalry took advantage of the weakness to enter and set fire to the grain.
It can be said that
All the guilt and today's failures all stem from Zhang Longxiang himself.
All the military officials have a trace of incomprehension and confusion on their faces, which is known as "the first reckless general of the David Dynasty", "the nemesis of the Huns", "the martial arts wizard of Qingzhou once in a century", "the legend of being demoted to a civilian husband three times, and being able to return to the captain within a year", it can be said that the supreme idol in the hearts of this group of military officials, actually sank into the dream woven by the Hun witch Zhu for a long time, how unbelievable is this?
"Alas, I can't hide it......"
Zhang Longxiang sighed, stretched his palm to the root of his ear, and in front of many military officials, he tore off a thin dough like a cicada's wings, and said bitterly:
"I'm sorry, but the captain is not in the camp at the moment, and it will be about three months before he can return."
A certain young general was stunned for a long time, "Teng" stood up, drew his sword, and said angrily:
"Who are you? Where's the Captain? ”
The commander of the thousand was thoughtful, stopped the young general, and said in a deep voice:
"When you just broke the curse and woke up, you did have the bearing of a few lieutenants, and others would never be able to imitate it."
"Zhang Longxiang" sighed, and said with a bitter face: "The captain thinks that transporting grain is too boring, so he ordered me to stay and replace it for a while. ”
"Just now, I just fused a trace of the shadow he left behind, and I successfully broke through the curse and led you to repel the Loulan cavalry."
The military officials raised their foreheads and sighed, such a bold and reckless thing was really only done by their captain, "the first reckless general of the David Dynasty", and asked helplessly:
"Where is the Captain now?"
Zhang Ying turned around, stared at the long yellow sand in the depths of the Gobi, and said word by word:
"Loulan."
