Chapter 220 Together
Everyone nodded, and the captain said with admiration:

"According to the time calculation, the champion Hou Shi arrived in Longxi from Chang'an within a few days. The march was simply too fast. He really deserves to be the bloodline son of the champion Jing Huanhou."

The soldier Cao Jishi next to him also echoed in a sigh:
"That's natural. The champion Jing Huanhou marched very fast, and he was the fastest among my men. Now his only son, the champion Hou, is in the same line and even faster. This is what should be done.

If it is not fast, how can the champion Hou lead three thousand soldiers and horses to attack back and forth in the hinterland of the Huns and win a big victory? "

Everyone applauded Bing Cao Junshi's words again and again!

Bing is precious and fast, this is a wise saying.

Although most of them are a group of literati, there are no literati officials with a little ambition in this era who do not understand military affairs, because they all yearn for the battlefield.

Don't worry about how much they know, even if they only know a little, they are much better than those who don't.

When the enemy attacked, even if it was just a matter of fighting the enemy on paper, it could delay them for a while and buy time for the reinforcements.

And if you don't understand anything, then even if you bring elite soldiers and horses, they are still lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

So they naturally know how to lead soldiers and horses, what is the concept of marching so fast, that is a great skill.

Even if you don't know anything else, if you can lead troops and horses to travel two hundred miles a day and retain combat power for half a month, then you can be a school lieutenant or captain in this era.

And they sigh because they can't believe it.

.........

"Champion Hou ordered that everything must be ready at dusk on the [-]th. Today is the [-]th. Can it be done in two days?"

The governor of Longxi County hurriedly asked after watching the crowd.

When he asked, it wasn't that he didn't understand the situation, he knew things in the county very well.

Not to mention other places, none of the sheriffs in frontier counties is mediocre.

The reason why he asked was because he found it difficult to see if other people could do anything about it.

The captain spoke first:

"The barracks is not a problem. I can take care of it in half a day leading the troops. After noon, I can free up my hands. I can kill sheep, move food and cook food, and move horses. The soldiers can help."

The others breathed a sigh of relief. With the help of soldiers and horses, they would be able to relax a lot.

Immediately afterwards, Tian Cao Jishi said:
"The Great War is about to begin, and the Huqiang school lieutenant is stockpiling supplies, and the county government sent a batch of sheep to the Huqiang station a few days ago.

The county government still needs to keep some for next year's breeding, and the active ones are definitely not enough for the [-] army to feed, and I am afraid they will have to buy some from the people. "

After Tian Cao's history finished speaking, Jin Cao's history immediately took over:
"Don't worry, the county government still has some money, enough."

The sheriff nodded, this was done, and he looked at Cang Cao Jishi.

"It's the same with the barn. I sent a batch to Hu Qiang. I'm afraid they will use the sealed grain."

After hearing what he said, the sheriff immediately made a decision and said:

"Then move, the army cannot lack food."

Then the sheriff looked at Ma Cao Jishi, who sighed and said:

"My side is the most difficult, [-] horses can be taken out easily, I just go to the stable order to get the horses.

But the time of two days is too short. It takes more than two days just to select suitable horses for [-] horses.

It is extremely difficult to gather them together and drive them from the stable a hundred miles away to the city of Longxi. "

A group of people stopped talking, they were all thinking of a way, and the sheriff even stood up, circling around the ground anxiously.

Then he gritted his teeth and said:

"I will order my fathers and villagers to help later. Everyone in Longxi knows how to ride a horse and knows how to ride a horse. With the help of the common people, it will not be a problem."

Just as everyone wanted to stop them, the sheriff looked outside the door and said:

"It's better to be more thorough. Soldiers lead the people to the river to fetch water and prepare grain and grass. Soldiers watch the people open the granary and remove the shells to cook the grain."

Seeing that the sheriff had finished speaking, the magistrate then spoke:
"Issuing orders without order, disturbing the people, gathering the people, this is a serious crime."

"Everything is voluntary, and the county government will not force it. If it is urgent, the champion should not blame it. Even if it is blamed, I will bear it."

Everyone sighed, and Cang Cao Jishi said again:

"If the people steal food, then..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the sheriff:

"The one who came before was the champion, no way."

Although he said so, his confidence seemed a little lacking, because he was not sure.

People all over the world are short of food. Although life has been much better in recent years, they are still short of food.

It’s okay if you don’t catch it, but if you catch it, what do you tell him to do?
It is easy to arouse public anger if it is cut down. If the law is not cut down, it will be useless, and everyone will reach out.

"This is a matter of my Longxi County, how can I let the county guard take it all on my own?"

"exactly."

"I will bear it together."

"Add a certain one too."

The governor of Longxi watched this scene, and to be honest, he was still a little moved.

"Okay, let's start quickly, time is urgent."

"promise."

Everyone stood up, saluted and retreated, and began to busy themselves with their own affairs.

Everyone just discussed it roughly, and didn't talk about it in detail.

One reason is that time is urgent and there is no room for delay.

Another reason is that Longxi County is a frontier county, this process Longxi officials have to come once a year, sometimes several times a year, quite familiar with it.

This time, the only difference is the urgency of time.

The sheriff looked at the departing people and sighed:
"It would be nice if every meeting was the same as this time."

The captain also went to mobilize troops. Although the big man Tie Ze said that he could not mobilize troops without an edict, if the county soldiers did not leave the county, they would be fine!

Moreover, if the soldiers did not wear armor, bows and crossbows, they were not soldiers and horses, and this was not to kill the enemy. Weapons were enough.

As everyone left one after another, the county guard's order came out from the county mansion, and the entire Longxi city became lively.

Cao, the thief under the gate, and the pavilion chief of the gate of the mansion ran to all directions of Longxi City with their bodyguards and guards, and some even rode out from the four gates to the Liting outside the city on horseback.

After a while, the entire Longxi city was filled with the sound of gongs and shouts.

"Boom~ The champion Hou is about to lead the army. Longxi County should prepare money, rations and horses. The time is short, and the county government is short of manpower. I hope my fathers and villagers will help me! Boom~"

"Boom~ The champion leads the army..."

……

The people became lively when they heard the shouts.

"The champion is coming? Doesn't that mean there will be another big fight?"

A strong man in the west of the city was overjoyed and muttered.

In his mind, the champion Hou Na is a god-like figure, and he should always stay in Chang'an, the capital of the great man.

And Champion Hou, as the God of War, every time he came to the frontier, it meant that a big battle was coming.

And this news is really great news for the frontier people like them.

And in the east of the city, a few peasants carrying wooden hoes and preparing to go to the fields together stopped when they heard the shouts.

"Champion Hou?"

"It seems to be."

"It must be that the imperial court heard the news of the death of old general Li Xi, so they sent Champion Hou over."

"Hey? Where did you hear the news? How could old General Li Xi pass away?"

Several other people also looked angrily at the talking brawny man.

In their minds, although Champion Hou is the God of War, Li Xi is no worse than Champion Hou.

Moreover, the champion Hou was far away, and Li Xi was not far away to resist the Qiang people who harmed them.

Therefore, in the eyes of the common people in Longxi, Li Xi was much more cordial and familiar than Champion Hou.

The strong man looked at the eyes of everyone flustered, and quickly explained:

"I'm not talking nonsense. You didn't go to the food delivered to the Huqiang station a few days ago, and it has already spread all over there."

"Then have you heard of it elsewhere?"

The strong man shook his head:

"That's not there."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and a tall but thin commoner said:
"It must be the same as the previous few times, but the old general Li Xi led the Qiang people here, what is it called?"

"Strategy."

The tall man suddenly realized, and nodded again and again:

"Yes, yes, it's strategy. I saw the old general last year. He was as strong as the bull in the pavilion. How could he die!"

The others nodded again and again, not only he had seen it, but everyone else had seen it too.

Every year when the food is delivered, Li Xi will personally receive it. If he is lucky, the old general will walk past them.

The strong man asked everyone curiously:

"Then tell me, why did Champion Hou come here this time?"

"Didn't you hear that he brought a large army? Old General Li Xi is old after all. He has always wanted to destroy the Qiang people. It is estimated that the champion Hou came here this time to destroy the Qiang people."

The tall man spoke quickly, and the others couldn't get in his mouth. After hearing what he said, everyone beamed with joy. One of them said:
"That's great. Champion Hou and old general Li Xi will definitely be able to destroy the Qiang people."

Everyone nodded again and again, one of the two most powerful generals in their minds could beat the Qiang people, and the other two couldn't kill them!

The strong man rolled his eyes and said:
"Then you say, is the champion Hou the main general, or the veteran general?"

As soon as the words were finished, the others turned their heads and looked at him with weird eyes.

The strong man shrank his neck and asked cautiously:

"What, what's wrong?"

The tall man rolled his eyes:

"Aren't you stupid, Champion Hou is the god of war of my big man, the old champion Hou has won every battle, but unfortunately, he left a little early, and the Xiongnu and Qiang people have not yet been destroyed.

But it's okay, the young champion Hou is stronger than the old champion Hou. In the first battle, 3000 people killed 20 people, and the old champion Hou only killed 800 people with [-] people in the first battle. "

"Eight hundred destroys two thousand, that's amazing!"

"exactly."

The tall man stamped his hoe, raised his head and said proudly:
"So, it must be the champion Hou who is the main general. No matter how powerful the old general is, he can still be stronger than the champion Hou, right?
The champion Hou family is the most powerful general in the world, what is that name, yes, Junxun, the most powerful Junxun family.

Even if it is the most powerful Li family in Longxi, it is far behind the champion Hou's family. "

Everyone nodded involuntarily. Although they were all young people, they had never seen the heroic appearance of Champion Hou.

But they all grew up listening to the stories told by the old man about the champion Hou Ping Hexi and the extermination of the Xiongnu.
