Chapter 53: Promises must be kept, this is the rule of Great Qin

For fear that Ying Cheng would mistakenly think that he was refusing the task, Chen He explained seriously:

"A few years ago, the Korean New Year was the same day as the Great Qin New Year."

"But last year, the king succeeded to the throne and corrected it to the first day of the ninth month."

"So the first day of the year in South Korea this year is the first day of September."

"If you want to feed the army, there's no problem."

"This year's grain harvest in Xicheng is bumper, and the grain stored in the grain depot alone is enough for 200,000 people to eat for three months."

"But under the celebration for days, most of the wine and meat in the city have already been consumed!"

Ying Chengcheng shook his head a little helplessly:

"Changed again!"

Even though he has been living in this world for more than ten years, Ying Chengcheng still can't fully get used to the calendar of this period.

This is because the calendar used varies from country to country.

Great Qin used the Zhuan calendar, Zhao used the Xia calendar, and Chu used a mixture of the Zhou calendar and the Xia calendar.

A very intuitive example is that the April of Great Qin corresponds to the July of Chu.

Even countries with the same calendar have different years of age.

For example, the first day of the year in Daqin is the first day of October, and the first day of the year in South Korea is the first day of September.

This is not the end, some countries no matter which month the beginning of the year is set, after the beginning of the year will enter the next year, while some countries are divided into years and months, and the beginning of the year is only for political positioning, not for calendar positioning.

The state of Chu is the latter, even if other countries don't know the newly determined Zhengshuo of the state of Chu, they won't mess up the years.

But Qin is the former, so after the end of September of the eighth year of Qin Wangzheng, it immediately jumped to October of the ninth year of Qin Wangzheng, and what followed in December of the ninth year of Qin Wangzheng was January of the ninth year of Qin Wangzheng!

What's even more outrageous is that the calendars, the beginning of the year and the chronology used by various countries will change!

How does this make people count the days?

It doesn't count at all!

After thinking about it for a while, Ying Chengcheng turned to ask: "Is there a rich family near Xicheng?" ”

Chen He immediately understood Ying Chengcheng's thoughts: "The general wants to get wine and meat from the rich family?" ”

"But in this way, the rich people may be dissatisfied."

"And even if you loot all the rich families in the vicinity of Xicheng, you can't get enough wine and meat for an army of 100,000."

Ying Cheng's voice was flat: "I Daqin has a promise that I will keep, this is the rule." ”

"Since the general has promised the army, it must be fulfilled!"

Chen He was very moved in his heart.

Although it is impossible for him to attend tonight's banquet, let alone enjoy the wine and meat.

But Ying Chengchan's attitude towards the soldiers made Chen He sure that Ying Chengchan was a person who kept promises.

Since Ying Chengcheng is willing to do his best to fulfill his promise to the army, he will also fulfill his promise to him and help him take his family out!

"Hexagram!" summoned the hexagram man, and Ying Cheng Cheng pointed out his right hand: "This is the head of the general's soldiers, holding the tiger talisman of the pro-soldiers." ”

"Then the hexagram man will follow the gentleman, and if the gentleman needs it, he will drive the general to act with his own soldiers."

"If you need the cooperation of the middle, rear, and baggage troops, Mr. can also directly explain to the general."

"There is only one request from the general, at all costs, let our soldiers eat and drink enough tonight!"

Chen He solemnly bowed his hand: "Only! ”

handed over the work of finding wine and meat to Chen He, and Ying Chengcheng got busy non-stop.

Clean the battlefield to avoid the plague.

Each army counts the soldiers and reports the losses.

Find all the dead bodies, put the heads in the position of the Chinese army and mark the killer for announcement......

War is never just about killing!

When the time came, there were still busy people inside and outside Xicheng.

Suddenly, Cao Shan, a military judge, glanced at his nose.

"What does it smell like?"

Cao Shan had a burnt human head in his hand, and subconsciously approached and sniffed it.

Seeing this, my colleague laughed: "Cao Shan, you won't be so hungry that you want to eat people, right?" ”

"Hey, don't say it, this brain melon seed is really good to burn."

Cao Shan scolded with a smile: "His mother, who wants to eat people!" ”

"I smell barbecue."

Another colleague scolded angrily: "Who doesn't smell barbecue?" ”

"The whole army has the strongest smell of barbecue here!"

"I'm telling you, I don't want to eat barbecue for the next month."

My colleague wasn't joking.

All the corpses of the South Korean soldiers killed in the battle are piled up here, and nearly half of them have been charred and smelling of barbecued meat.

It tastes good, but it's devastating to human nature.

Even if they are all military judges who can pick up their heads and play with balls, they are disgusting at the moment.

But at this moment, there was a commotion from all over the barracks.

"Smell it? It's meaty! ”

"Look, the baggage battalion is sending meat, and the general really let us eat meat!"

"Not only meat, but also wine, hahaha! Today I will have two bowls of good drink! ”

"Who said our generals can't do it? The city was broken in the first battle, the city was broken and ate wine and meat, follow such a general, be alive! ”

Cao Shan muttered in disbelief: "There is really barbecue." ”

"Do you want to eat?"

The military judges looked at each other, looked at the charred human head in their hands again, and finally spoke viciously in unison:

"Eat!"

Qin Jun's mind was simple.

If you are good to them, if you can lead them to victory, and if you can sell their lives for a good price, they will be willing to give them to you!

This morning, the army still had to obey the orders of Ying Cheng.

But now, when Ying Cheng Chan appeared in the army, all the soldiers who saw Ying Cheng Chan couldn't help but shout:

"Meet the General!"

Ying Chengcheng had a gentle smile on his face, and he took the trouble to respond to the soldiers one by one:

"Eat slowly, don't hold on."

"Eat meat, there is so much meat, what do you do with only rice?"

"Huh, three heads? You hurry up and send it to the military lawyer, you will be knighted after three days of publicity, and today you have a bumper harvest, but this harvest is not food, but a knighthood! ”

Looking at Ying Chengchan's gentle smile and listening to Ying Chengchan's careful and nagging advice, many soldiers' eyes were a little red.

If anyone tells them about the mutiny again, they don't need Ying Chengcheng to give an order, they themselves can kill all those who are clamoring!

There were bursts of shouts in the army:

"General Wansheng!"

Walking all the way to the edge of the army, Ying Chengcheng greeted the soldiers guarding the barracks: "Let's all go to eat." ”

The soldiers hurriedly surrendered their hands: "General, it's my turn to wait for Rong Wei tonight." ”

Ying Chengcheng smiled: "Tonight, I will bring my own soldiers for you." ”

The soldiers were stunned: "The general ......"

Ying Cheng waved his hand: "No need to persuade again, go drink and eat meat!" ”

The soldiers were moved, and bowed their hands heavily: "General Xie!" ”

drove away the soldiers, Ying Cheng greeted the soldiers with a smile:

"It's not easy for soldiers to have the opportunity to eat meat and drink wine."

"I'll give it to them today, and tomorrow Japan will allow you to eat meat and drink wine."

"But for a long night, don't stand still, and take some meat for yourself, and guard while eating."

"But remember, no alcohol tonight!"

A group of pro-soldiers happily surrendered: "Only! ”

The soldiers went to the defensive line to replace the soldiers.

The soldiers set up bonfires and set up meat on the shelves.

The eight husbands flipped the meat skewers with their hands and feet, and after a while, they brought a skewer of roast venison to Ying Chengcheng.

"Master, you eat!"

took the meat skewer and took a bite of it, and Ying Chengcheng let out a long sigh of satisfaction: "Comfortable!" ”

"This taste is right, it's much better than the food of Shang Shiling!"

Bafu was happy: "The master of the family, you have praised too much, how can my craftsmanship compare with Shang Shiling." ”

Ying Chengcheng chuckled: "Do you believe it, if you let Brother Wang choose, he can't wait to sit here and eat your barbecue with Ben Jiang?" ”

Bafu obviously didn't believe it: "How can the king see my craftsmanship!" ”

Ying Chengcheng leaned on a stone, on the left was the city that had just been defeated, on the right was the soldiers who were loyal to him, and when he looked up, he saw the bright moon.

Feeling the breeze blowing on his face, Ying Cheng smiled and muttered: "It's not craftsmanship that looks at it, it's freedom!" ”
