Quick wear: She has turned over the big guys from all walks of life

Chapter 1403 Famine and Natural Disaster 561
"Alright, just talk about it in private and don't tell anyone else." The general looked at the commander-in-chief's calm face. Although the commander-in-chief didn't say anything, he still felt that something was wrong.

There are many cases of imperial power being granted by heaven, and it is difficult to clearly distinguish the pros and cons.

The imperial power is granted by Heaven. Success or failure is also granted by Heaven.

If the country develops smoothly, it means that God is satisfied with the people he values; if one day it is like the Dayi Dynasty, with constant natural disasters and wars, does that mean that God is dissatisfied with the Human Emperor?
Everything has two sides, we can't just see the good side.

"Yes, General, we are just talking about it during our casual chat. We won't tell anyone else about it."

The few young generals who had just spoken echoed with a smile.

They understood what the general meant and naturally did not want to cause trouble for their commander-in-chief.

But then again, the Northwest is truly peaceful and stable; there are no natural disasters, and we have won many battles. The commander has never lost a battle since he took power, and everything goes smoothly and everything he wants has come true.

"Just remember it." The general turned to look at the commander-in-chief, and was secretly happy when he saw that the commander-in-chief's expression softened a little. The commander-in-chief had a steady and upright character, and he could speak up when there were things that were difficult to say.

Like this time.

"Commander, it is snowing lightly now, the weather has changed drastically, and it is too cold. Should we still stay here? Why don't we go back to Pingyang Pass to have a good rest, order the soldiers to take turns guarding the pass, and report any situation in time?" suggested the general.

Zhou Ting paused for a moment. The kings and princes in the Central Plains were already helpless. It was impossible for them to invade in such a cold weather.

Heavy snow falls frequently in the northwest every year, and Pingyang Pass is affected even though it is close to the Central Plains. Even if it does not snow, it is extremely cold, and it is damp and cold, chilling to the bone.

Due to the shortage of supplies for the soldiers in the Central Plains, even their normal movements were restricted.

"Reorganize the army and return to Pingyang Pass when the snow stops."

"Yes!!"

The generals of high rank such as the generals of the state were not surprised by the choice of the commander-in-chief, but the young generals were not aware of it! As soon as they got the answer, they shouted happily; as soon as the words fell, the young generals bowed and left.

They were still somewhat calm before leaving the main tent, but after leaving the main tent, everyone was so happy that they let themselves go and shouted loudly to assemble.

"gather!"

"Everyone gather!"

"Hurry, hurry, everyone in the tent, come out!"

Wherever they passed, there were cries of surprise.

"Who is it? There is a loud roar in the barracks."

"Will you let us rest? Gather again."

"The one who called for assembly must be the generals. Judging from the voices, they must be junior generals."

"Why are we gathering together? It's freezing cold and there's no war going on. Can't we just take a break?"

"Who knows? If they call us, we'll just go."

Except for the soldiers on duty outside, the soldiers who were resting put on thick clothes and walked out of the tents. In just a cup of tea, more than 100,000 people came out one after another and gathered at the training ground.

"Have all the soldiers from each camp arrived?" General Zheng, the highest-ranking general among the group of young generals, walked up to the platform early and waited for all the soldiers to arrive.

The young generals who had reorganized their respective camps returned one after another, and each of them had a big smile on their face in response to General Zheng's questions.

"General Zheng, our vanguard battalion has arrived."

"The left wing is here."

"The right wing has arrived."

"The central battalion has arrived." "The logistics support has arrived!"

"The cooks are all here!"

"."

The generals in charge of the various camps answered one by one with loud and powerful voices, which was particularly exciting.

"Very good!" General Zheng was full of energy, standing on the high platform and facing the soldiers directly, "Everyone is here, let me say a few words; I called you out in the freezing weather, not to let you freeze in vain. The commander just issued an order to assemble and return to Pingyang Pass when the snow stops. Everyone should prepare early, and don't wait until the last minute to rush, which will undermine the strict military discipline of the Northwest Army. Do you understand?"

"understand!"

The shouts were so loud that they could be heard for miles.

The princes and nobles far away in the Central Plains heard this and thought that some important orders had been issued, so they quickly gathered people to inquire about the movements of the Northwest Army.

"It's not enough to understand. We need to take action. On the day of departure, the idle people should help the logistics brothers pack up. The soldiers in the kitchen camp should work harder and make more dry food for storage. Don't prepare dry food that is easy to freeze."

"Yes, the cook camp understands!"

General Zheng Xiao was full of pride and shouted for everyone to disperse. The soldiers in each camp became excited, but they knew their limits and did not make too much noise. From the perspective of the spies outside, they were just too excited and did not find out anything.

It was expected that the snow would not stop for a while, but what was unexpected was that this heavy snow lasted for more than half a month.

The trip was delayed again and again and we were unable to return to Pingyang Pass.

Zhou Ting and others were anxious, thinking about their loved ones inside the pass.

"Report!!!"

A soldier wearing a thick cotton coat and soft armor was intercepted by An San outside the tent.

"Sir, I have urgent news. Please take me to see the commander."

Zhou Ting heard the noise and said, "Bring him in."

"Yes." An San responded respectfully and let him go.

The soldier rushed into the tent, knelt on one knee, and bowed to report, "Commander-in-chief, I have found money in the vanguard camp. The Central Plains army was buried in the snow. I went to investigate and found that the enemy guarding the gate had been frozen to death in the snow. Their camp was covered with ice and snow, and the ice and snow froze their tents. No one survived."

Zhou Ting paused as he raised his hand. "Are you sure there are no survivors?"

"I have confirmed that there are no survivors."

Heavy snow fell for half a month, and the temperature kept dropping. It was normal that the Central Plains army could not hold on. After all, they had no military pay, no food, and even no way to fully equip themselves with weapons. Many people used incomplete weapons.

It can be seen what kind of people the kings and princes in the Central Plains are like.

Seeing the enemy soldiers frozen to death, they were all thankful that their commander was the main commander.

The commander-in-chief never takes the lives of his soldiers lightly, and he always mentions the treatment they deserve. Not only that, but they can also exchange their military merits for supplies that cannot be bought outside.

Such as wool coats, fur cloaks, brocade fabrics, and even all kinds of good medicinal materials; as long as the military merits are sufficient, they can be exchanged.

For example, the ginseng and ganoderma lucidum that they had in stock were rare treasures, and the coach was willing to take them out and give them to them for exchange.

As long as they do their job well and fight bravely, they and their families can live a good life; they can get money to see a doctor when they are sick, and they can have a full meal every day when others are still hungry. They fight bravely outside, and their families can live and work in peace and contentment in the rear. Considering that they fight on the front line of the battlefield, the government in various parts of the northwest will give them a certain amount of care.

Their reforms in the northwest are getting better and better. The coach has taken everything into consideration. Now they don’t worry about the future of their families even if they die in battle.

Look at the people who retreated from the battlefield in Fucheng, and later, the various reforms made by Master Fan and Miss Cheng to care for the families of the heroes who died in battle; they all had only one goal, which was to let their families live a stable life in the rear, with enough food and warm clothing, and the commander-in-chief, Master Fan and Miss Cheng realized this wish for them and relieved them of their worries.
