1164 March

Everyone quickly made up the second half of his words in their hearts! They are really going to attack the Tan brothers! Thinking of this, Miao Xian Ling quickly blinked and said, "Impossible! It is impossible for any army to maintain such a marching pace! In this case, it won't take two days for the whole team to collapse, okay? The soldiers will mutiny!" Xiu Shu

Master Huang also said, "That's it! And if nothing else, even the things that those soldiers usually eat can't withstand such consumption!"

Hearing this, several people smiled mockingly! Because the food of the Ming soldiers is notoriously rotten! When the food and salary on it itself were distributed, a part of it was missing, and with the peeling of the skins layer by layer, there was already very little left in the hands of the soldiers!

The soldiers usually don't have enough to eat, how can they have the strength to train! And high-intensity training must be combined with enough meat, otherwise it won't take long for people to be wasted! As for the description that soldiers can eat meat in normal times, go to your dreams, you have everything in your dreams!

But at this moment, a firehead not far away lifted the lid of the cauldron and began to stir, and a fragrance actually blew down! A few people were waiting for the servants to cook and wait for a very hungry time, and their mouths watered when they smelled it!

But then they looked at each other incredulously, because they could smell that there was really meat in the pot!

Since the first Huotou Army lifted the lid of the pot, other cauldrons have also been lifted one after another, and the fragrance has become stronger for a while! Then the firehead began to shout to the soldiers to eat.

The soldiers got up one after another, took out a large iron bowl from their backpacks, and lined up to eat. The Huotou Army gave each soldier a big bowl with vegetables and soup, and then the soldiers would take out the dry and hard cakes from the dry food bag, break them and soak them in the soup, and finally eat them with vegetables and meat!

Miao ordered several people to see their food from the nearby soldiers' bowls. This dish is just plain greens, but it's a lot of it! And each person has a piece of meat of about the same size in their bowl! It can be seen that these pieces of meat should be cut bacon, which is one or two weights! What surprised them even more was that all the vegetable soups had a thick layer of grease floating on them, which was obviously added when cooking!

Seeing this scene made Miao Xianling and others very surprised! They had never seen a soldier so well fed, it was a terrible thing! A group of mud-legged people actually eat so well, and they actually have meat, oil and water all of a sudden, don't they deduct military salaries?

At this time, their servants also beckoned them to eat, and they could only restrain their doubts and eat. When they finished eating, they found that the soldiers had already finished eating, and as soon as they finished eating, the soldiers leaned on each other with their firearms in their arms, supported each other and began to sleep.

After a tiring morning of marching, the soldiers were indeed a little tired, and soon fell asleep. And to the surprise of Miao County Ling and the others, at this time, all the people in charge of the sentry were officers and Jinyi guards! Because these officers have horses, they are not tired along the way.

By the afternoon, the army had not been running, but had been switching back and forth between rapid and normal marches. And the march did not stop until ten in the evening.

At this time, everyone, including Miao County Ling, was speechless! Because the violent jolting of the carriage had exhausted all their physical strength, they had to rely on the coachman to support them when they got out of the carriage. As for the other reason why they don't speak, it's that they're already scared! Because they've already estimated, at this rate. If the army arrives at Jiulong Mountain, it may not really take three days!

Sure enough, from the next day, the whole team still maintained a high-speed march. By the evening of the third day, they had arrived at the foot of Kowloon Mountain.

When he rested at night, Miao Xian ordered several people to gather together again, and they were silent around the fire team. The jumping flames reflected everyone's faces, making the shadows on their faces seem to come alive and look extremely hideous!

After a long time, Master Huang said with a wry smile: "No wonder we are allowed to bring three days of food, it seems that this official army is sure to break the Tan brothers' cottage in one day, and the food in it will be the spoils of war at that time, and it will be enough to eat on the way back!"

Because everyone guessed the answer, no one answered. But they are all secretly thinking about whether they can complete the combat mission tomorrow and one day?

At this time, Master Sun said, "You say, will they let us go into the mountain tomorrow? Then we won't be able to climb up!"

Master Huang said with a bitter face: "Yes, I have been running desperately in the car for the past few days, and the bones on my body are about to fall apart! What's more, the old man is too old to climb the mountain!"

Miao Xian Ling said helplessly: "Then you have to ask Liao Qianhu about them!"

Master Huang slapped his thigh and said, "Then you have to hurry up and ask!" Now we have a few county lords here, and I can talk to them! If a few of us had ever paid attention to us, I'm afraid they wouldn't have paid attention to us!"

Several other people also echoed this, encouraging Miao County Ling to hurry up and ask. In desperation, Miao County Ling had no choice but to go to Liao Qianhu and President Xu. As a result, he only received an incomprehensible reply: "Knowing that you are delicate and expensive, we have already arranged this matter!"

Miao County, who had touched a gray nose, came back and passed on the words, and a few people settled down. They thought they would probably be carrying them up the hill by soldiers.

When they woke up the next morning, they found that they had only guessed half right! It turned out that Liao Qianhu directly called more than 100 people dressed as farmers, and several of them were carrying sliders in their hands, which seemed to be prepared for them! As for the others, needless to say, they must have been used to transport war gifts!

At the same time, they also spotted several people dressed as mountain people pointing around the map with the officers. It made their hearts feel cold! Because it was clear that these people were spies of the army, they had probably figured out the situation of the Tan brothers! Now they're here to lead the way in the army!

After the soldiers had breakfast, they began to march into the mountains under the guidance of the spies. And Miao County ordered several people to be carried to the mountains by the porters in turn. As for their servants, they were unlucky, and they had to trek on two legs with the team. But even if they suffer again, they can only grit their teeth and dare not complain!

They trekked in the mountains for about half a day, and in the afternoon they finally crossed a valley and came to the foot of a small hill! When you look from below, you can see the wall of the cottage and a path that is not wide. And looking at the wall, it seems that there is no one who is even sentry!
