Chapter 79 Eating Noodles
Ning Yu was full of confidence at this time. Whether it was fighting against Hubei Fubiao and Supervising Biao, or later fighting against Daye and Huangzhou Prefecture, he could win almost every battle with ease. This kind of ease is not a tactical victory, but a real victory. Obtained by crushing with hard power.

Just like the beginning of the war against Wuchang City, although they used tricks to attract the fifth battalion of the Supervising Biao to the foot of the Snake Mountain, they still needed to fight a tough battle in the end.In the battle of Daye and Xiaoshicun that followed, this point was even more highlighted.

"Now our army has more than 4000 people, but the flintlock guns are only more than [-], and the captured shotguns are more than [-], but they are still far from enough. This is a major factor hindering our army. The needed gunpowder and saltpeter are used very quickly, and the Zhengshitang needs to pay attention to this.”

Ning Yu has always attached great importance to logistics, so he took this opportunity to pour out all the bitterness.

As far as Ning Yu is concerned, whenever he thinks of these things, he feels dizzy. He is not afraid of the attack of the Qing army, but it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice. The equipment of the original first division is still sufficient, but the newly formed second division The division and the third division were almost equipped with shotguns and sword shields from the original green battalion, which greatly affected the combat effectiveness of the troops.

When I ordered the Second Division to conquer all the big and small cities in Huangzhou Prefecture, I also took these rags to go. Fortunately, the Qing soldiers in Huangzhou Prefecture had been gathered and wiped out in Xiaoshi Village, otherwise they would not have so smooth.

"Now that Daye is in his hands, the mining of Tieshan's mines has begun, and all the prisoners who are unwilling to surrender to our army have been sent to mine. I think next month, the production will increase a little more. As for saltpeter gunpowder, etc. There should also be corresponding mineral resources in Meng, so the local county magistrate can explore first, and mine immediately if there is any income." Cui Wancai said casually, pulling his beard.

Ning Yu's complexion only slightly improved at this time, and he thought in his heart to take advantage of this opportunity to train the troops well, especially the few Qing generals who are currently captured are actually good talents. His surrender was a bit of help, so he talked to Cui Wancai again.

Cui Wancai also felt that this was a good opportunity. The reason why he had not persuaded him to surrender before was very simple, because the Fuhan Army had just risen, and he had no qualifications to talk about this topic. future fate.

After the first battle in Huangzhou, the situation gradually became clearer, and at this time, we can try to persuade them to surrender.If one or two can really be persuaded to surrender, it will be quite beneficial to the current Fuhan army.

"The attitude of Yue Lingfeng who was caught before has changed a lot now, and he is no longer so stubborn. Why don't you try it from him." The smile on Cui Wancai's face became thicker, like a fox who just caught a chicken.

Ning Yu chuckled, if he could really persuade these generals to surrender, let them lead the army to attack the Qing army in the future, I am afraid that the Five Buddhas of Kangxi's old man would ascend to heaven!
After all the discussions were over, Ning Yu wanted to leave, but Cui Wancai refused to let him go, with an inexplicable smile on his face.

"Recently, Si'er has been staying in your office all the time, handling paperwork for you. During the time when you were going on an expedition, she lost a lot of weight. You have to go and see her."

Ning Yu couldn't help scratching his head. He was not afraid of fighting on the battlefield, but when he met a little girl like Cui Si, he had no choice but to promise to take good care of Cui Si before he escaped.

Back in the camp, when Ning Yu walked to the door of his office, he hesitated a little, finally waited for a long time, and then walked in quietly.

When I walked in, I found that Cui Si was still wearing a scholar's uniform, holding a volume of documents in his hand and was immersed in writing, and there were several military officials standing in front of the table, standing respectfully.

"The privy envoy has led the army back to Wuchang. The supply of food and grass in the past few days must be timely and sufficient, and there must be no mistakes."

While talking, Cui Si handed the written document to the lower official without raising her head, and then opened the document below.

The little official got the order and left the office, only to find Ning Yu standing at the door, even though he wanted to salute, Ning Yu held him back with his gestures, and then quietly retreated.

Everyone still didn't notice that Ning Yu was standing at the door, but they just stared at Cui Si with all their attention, waiting for the release of one order after another. These orders involved the construction of barracks or logistics supplies, and they were all trivial and troublesome things, but Ning Yu understands that if these trivial matters are not resolved properly, the morale of the entire army will be lost.

"Private envoy, why don't you go in?" A voice came from outside the door, it turned out to be the little official who came to deliver the documents, and found Ning Yu's trace.

At this moment, everyone heard it, and they saluted together. Only Cui Si was still sitting in front of the desk, holding a pen with bare hands, and writing words with her heart.

"Don't blame the privy envoy, the students are rude, it's just that there are so many Chinese books in this camp, but the privy envoy was wronged to sit down for a while." After all, Cui Si was a little dissatisfied in her heart, and stabbed Ning Yu a few words with a strange yin and yang.

Ning Yu also knew that what he did was not right. After all, he left a little girl in this camp to deal with extremely heavy documents, but he disappeared for many days.

"You're busy, you're busy, everyone, please be busy first." Ning Yu's tone was a little awkward, with a feeling of advancing or retreating, so he sat in his own office, feeling a bit like a guest, After this sitting, she almost fell asleep. Until the evening, finally only Ning Yu and Cui Si were left in the office.

Cui Si raised her head and glanced at Ning Yu. Seeing his black and thin appearance, she couldn't help but feel a little soft in her heart. Although this person said that he was free from the trouble of copywriting, it was actually not easy at all, so she immediately said : "The privy envoy will report to the privy envoy later, after the students finish processing this volume of documents."

Ning Yu didn't bother Cui Si either. He turned around and went to the small kitchen next door, and brought over two bowls of noodle soup. Ning Yu originally asked Ning Yu to prepare it for the on-duty staff, but there was a shortage of manpower, so he could only make some pasta. Food, but enough.

The two bowls of noodles were very plain, with some green onion sprinkled on them and there was nothing else. When Ning Yu brought them over, Cui Si was a little surprised.

Cui Si grabbed the chopsticks, and regardless of her ladylike demeanor, she began to eat in big mouthfuls. Perhaps Cui Si has gotten used to the scribe's attire now, and her gestures and gestures don't feel like a daughter's.

Ning Yu took the noodles and started to eat in one bite, but when he ate half of it, he couldn't help but regret it. It seemed that it would be good if he added two poached eggs.
