At this time, the Great Song Dynasty still has some strength. But the food is only enough to eat.

For example, most people still eat coarse grains and miscellaneous grains, and can only solve one and a half full. In this way, it is impossible to eat openly, and the army cannot conduct drills every day. It's like the strongest forbidden army, and it is also a drill every three days, the western army and the northern army are all drilled every five days, and as for those box armies and township armies, they are drilled for ten days and a half months, or even more than a month or longer.

In this way, the combat effectiveness will naturally become weaker and weaker.

"What? You say that the Xinzhou soldiers also eat this thing?" Wang Deyong was stunned.

He thought that he was the biggest official here, so he would eat such a good thing. It is unthinkable that ordinary people also eat this.

"yes, everybody eats this." The soldier nodded and replied very seriously.

"How can this be done, everyone eats like this, how much food is enough? This Su Shi, isn't this a waste of military rations?" Wang Deyong suddenly quit.

Every time you go on an expedition, the imperial court allocates a number, and what is the standard of the army's meals, it is also a ration.

At the end of the day, everything has to be planned. It's like one bucket of fine grains can be exchanged for five buckets of coarse grains and miscellaneous grains. Of course, the taste is not as good, but the number is enough.

Other grains are not as delicious as refined grains, and the nutrition in all aspects is also inferior, but this is the general trend. Otherwise, you can eat as much as you want, and how much money is enough. The money of the imperial court is not blown by the wind, is it?

Thinking that now that he is in charge of his own affairs, he will never allow such nonsense, Wang Deyong didn't even eat, got up and walked outside, he wanted to go to the grain and grass to have a look, and tell them that things are not like this.

Soon, he came to the grain and grass with a large number of personal soldiers, and Zhang Qi, who was in charge of the affairs here, hurriedly greeted him. "The subordinate Xinzhou grain and grass officials have seen adults."

"You're the one who takes care of the grain and grass?" After looking at Zhang Qi, Wang Deyong quickly said: "Let me tell you, I will be in charge here from now on, from now on, two meals a day, polished rice will be replaced with miscellaneous grains, and the standard will be reduced by at least fifty percent, understand?"

"Understood." With Zhang Qi's identity, he naturally didn't dare to be more serious with Wang De.

But after agreeing, Zhang Qi still wanted to say something, "My lord, it's just..."

"Don't listen to anything, you just need to obey." Flicked his sleeves, Wang Deyong turned around and left.

A small state grain and grass official, he still dares to question himself, he really doesn't know how to be inferior or inferior.

Wang Deyong left, Zhang Qi looked at the back of his departure, and muttered: "It's just that the grain and grass in the city are only enough for one day, even if you save it again, it will be out tomorrow night, you always have to find a way to do this."

Zhang Qi wanted to explain the situation clearly, but Wang Deyong didn't listen, what could he do. I had to sigh, and I couldn't help but think in my heart, "Where did General Chungmu go, and when will he come back?" Look at the book

......

Liao, Lingqiu City.

Outside the city, the Phoenix Mountain is undulating.

A large number of Liao soldiers are passing through here one after another, and the target is directly aimed at Taixi Mountain in the Song Realm.

The 100,000 Liao troops traveled hundreds of miles in order to secretly enter the country, fight jointly with the Mongolian army, and give Su Shi a ruthless one.

It's just that what they don't know is that because of Meiyang's internal response, Su Shi has already noticed it, and the Flying Eagle Scout sent them to expand the search range all the way, and finally found them, and now Su Shi has already broken off the shell of the golden cicada and left Xincheng.

The Liao army didn't know that in the same Phoenix Mountain, there was another group of men and horses staring at them, that is, the Phoenix Mountain bandits entrenched here.

The bandit leader Hu Yunfeng, 30 years old, came to the vicinity of Phoenix Mountain when his family fled the famine in his early years. When the Liao soldiers swept away, the honest parents and brothers were killed by the Liao soldiers! Later, in order to take revenge, he became a mountain bandit in the Liao region, and his martial arts are very good! (Hu Yunfeng, the character set by the reader l_ Rui, made his debut.) ）

Over the years, in order to avenge his family, Hu Yunfeng has also killed a lot of Liao people and Liao soldiers, and has been wanted by the Great Liao government for many years.

It is only because of the complex terrain of Phoenix Mountain that the Liao soldiers have been encircled and suppressed several times without a problem.

Living here for many years, he is very familiar with every grass and tree here, Hu Yunfeng watched so many Liao soldiers pass through his mountain, and his face was dissatisfied.

"Big brother, let's them, this is too unserious for us." Ji Qing, the third leader of the mountain bandits, opened his mouth and said with an angry look.

"Fart, I want to do it too, but you don't look at how many of them there are." Chen Jiu, the second master, opened his mouth, first angrily reprimanded the third child, then looked at Hu Yunfeng and said, "Big brother, you still have to be cautious, there are too many Liao soldiers."

"What are you afraid of, doesn't the eldest brother admire the one named Su Shi the most? People just do more with less." The third Ji Qing said a little unconvinced.

"How can we compare to Lord Su." Chen Jiu shook his head and looked at Ji Qing, looking like you don't know how to do it.

"Alright, stop arguing." Hu Yunfeng opened his mouth.

For the two brothers below to quarrel when they meet, he has long been accustomed to it, and he is too lazy to dissuade it. What he was thinking about now was why these Liao soldiers were here.

What are their goals?

In the past, there had never been so many Liao soldiers in this place, and now that it has appeared, there must be a problem, or a big problem.

Thinking of the information he got recently, Hu Yunfeng frowned and said, "You say, who are the targets of these Liao soldiers, are they going to copy the old bottom of the Mengqi cavalry, or are they going to deal with General Su Shi?"

"It's hard to say, could it be that the Liao people were defeated by Mengqi before, and this time they just want to take revenge? Of course, there is another possibility, that is, to join forces with Mengqi to find trouble with Da Song and want to get a piece of the pie." Ji Qing spoke.

This is equivalent to not saying it, and he pointed out both possibilities, which made Hu Yunfeng glare at him again and said, "Shut up."

Ji Qing scratched his head in disdain, and really didn't speak.

Chen Jiu, who was on the side, hesitated for a moment and said, "I feel that they are likely to deal with General Su. If you really want to deal with the Mongolian cavalry, it should be all cavalry, but the Liao soldiers we see are mainly infantry, and the speed can't keep up, and no matter how many people come, it's useless. Besides, instead of wanting to copy Meng's back road, it is better to attack Mengdi directly, and it is more direct to encircle Wei and rescue Zhao."

"Besides, besides, if the Liao soldiers really want to deal with the Meng cavalry, they should pull the Song army together. But looking at the current situation, Song Jun should still be kept in the dark, so I analyze that this is unlikely."

Chen Jiu still has a brain, which Hu Yunfeng also admitted, and after hearing this, he also nodded, "So, General Su is in danger?"

"Big brother, if that's the case, then should we send someone to inform General Su. You always say that you want to fight with General Su, and you say that you want to take the opportunity to cut off the back road of the Mengqi, but now that the situation has changed, we must follow suit."

Ji Qing, who shut up, spoke up again, but this time he was on the point.

The last time Su Shi appeared in Liaodi with Su Jiajun, he didn't go to Phoenix Mountain, but Hu Yunfeng still knew about his prestige.

When he got the news that Su Shi had defeated the Liao soldiers and the Liao people were dizzy, he had the heart to take refuge.

It's just that Su Shi at that time was a divine dragon who couldn't see the end, Hu Yunfeng sent someone to contact him, but he couldn't find anyone, and finally Su Shi went to Mengdi, so he could only let go of this thought first.

But in his bones, Hu Yunfeng wanted to follow Su Shi's deeds after hearing about it.

This time, Su Shi led the troops again, and when he was defeated by Mengqi again outside Xincheng, Hu Yunfeng wanted to take more than 2,000 brothers in the mountains to follow, but Chen Jiu finally stopped him.

In Chen Jiu's words, it's okay to follow, but we can't go like this, we should take out a big gift, so that we will be valued when we go there.

What is a gift?

On the battlefield, there is no greater gift than the enemy's head.

Hu Yunfeng set his eyes on Mengqi, thinking that the next time Mengqi and Su Shi fought again, they would copy each other's back roads and attack from both sides.

The number of Hu Yunfeng's troops was only more than 2,000, and the number of war horses was only about 500, so they could not fight the Mengqi head-on by themselves.

Although Hu Yunfeng has never slacked off training with everyone in the past few years, more than 2,000 people have also seen blood, and their combat power is still good. But Mengqi is really not easy to mess with, just pointing to Hu Yunfeng's people, it will be very difficult to hit him hard.

If you can't fight a tough battle, you can only fight a smart battle, and they have to wait for the opportunity.

But they didn't want to, and before they could do it, they waited for a large number of Liao soldiers to appear, which also disrupted their plans.

Chen Jiu and Ji Qing's words, Hu Yunfeng listened to them, "The notice must be notified, but should we also do something?"

"Big brother, we can't do anything, our numbers are too small, although these Liao soldiers are mainly infantry, but every other distance, there are also Liao cavalry as auxiliaries, if we rush down now, it is likely that we will be entangled, so there is a great possibility that we will be hit hard. And if we don't have the strength, will General Su still agree to us joining?" Chen Jiu spoke again and said very sensibly.

In these years, if you want to defect to others and be valued by others, you need to have your own strength.

If you don't have enough strength, why should you let others look up to you?

If you don't have enough strength, how can you compete for a certain right to speak?

Hu Yunfeng naturally understood this truth, "Okay, then send someone to contact General Su first, explain the situation here, and then we will listen to the order." If General Su tells us to do it now, then we don't have to worry about it, let's do a big one."

This is tantamount to greeting the two brothers in advance, and it is also intended to tell them that sending someone to contact Su Shi means handing over the command of the mountain together, and at that time, if you want to regret it, you can't.
