Villager of Daming

Chapter 363 Peace of mind and prepare to wait for the enemy to find (second update)
"Work fast, don't even think about eating if you don't work."

"When you are fighting, you have strength. If you are asked to move a piece of wood, you pretend to be cowardly."

From time to time, the voices of Ming soldiers scolding the prisoners came from outside the tent, and some Ming soldiers were humming a little tune while working.

Everyone is very happy, their morale is not as high as usual, they don't die, and they can harvest a lot of luggage. How dare you think of such a good thing in wars before?

Feng Sheng in the tent brought a water bag and two wine cups, and poured two cups of the medicinal wine in the water bag: "Weixue, drink some wine to get rid of the tide."

"There's no tide here, but the drought is severe. It's good to have a rain, and the gray will be small when we go on the road tomorrow morning."

Fu Youde picked up the wine cup, sipped it lightly, then cut off a piece of meat, looked at the salt in the plate, put down his things, turned and went out, and came back in a while.

"We have seasonings. Just put salt, so it's not as delicious as adding cumin." He said and opened the seasoning package.

"I've been busy setting up camp, but I forgot." Feng Sheng also dipped the meat into the dish.

After he swallowed the meat, he looked at the flames: "If this battle is won, Daming will be able to be stable for more than ten or twenty years, and where He Lin is is the most important thing.

Xu Da had better kill and capture more Yuan soldiers there, and not let them escape with too many people, otherwise they would always think about attacking Daming. "

"The war can't stop, even if they go further north, we still have to fight, we also have the Silk Road on land.

We must do business with outsiders, sell our low-cost things to them, and exchange them for high-cost things.

The cost of their spices is actually not high, but they are expensive to sell to us, and there will always be disputes between buyers and sellers over money. "

Fu Youde was thinking about the issue of trade with the Arabs, and now they are generally called the big cannibals over there, or the people of Tianfangguo.

He also knew how much advantage the palace gained from doing business with the Yi people. He used to exchange silk and porcelain with the Yi people for pearls, corals, spices and other things.

Those things have nothing to do with ordinary people, they are enjoyed by palaces and rich families.

Now they exchange rock sugar, glazed mirrors, soap, and rare music boxes for gold, silver, food, and medicinal materials. Yes, there is a special resting place for Yi people next to Shibosi, and the fees are very expensive.

These have a relationship with the people, especially the grain in exchange, some of which are selected as seeds, and some are directly sent to the nursing home.

Every shipment of grain can feed hundreds of people for ten days and half a month. The Yi people kept transporting grain to Daming in order to exchange for more things.

In this way, the accumulation of small things in the Ming Dynasty is enough to feed more than [-] people in one year.

If there is a disaster somewhere, it is said that tens of thousands of people have no food to eat, and the food will be sent there, and the court will squeeze the food itself, so that it can survive the most difficult time.

When Fu Youde thinks about trade, there will be wars.

Feng Sheng said from another angle: "If there is no war, we generals can only retire and return home. Only when there is war can we continue to have work."

Fu Youde suddenly looked up at Feng Sheng, and Feng Sheng also looked at him.

Fu Youde sighed: "We really need to fight, but we didn't fight such a big place. In the Yuan Dynasty, we fought far away. We can't be worse than them."

"Yes, yes! I believe experts are willing to support the war, otherwise..." Feng Sheng paused as he spoke, lowering his head to cut the meat.

……

"It ran fast, and they were all marked, but I have no combat achievements on my side."

Li Wenzhong of the East Route Army is also resting, he is depressed.

All fronts are sending information to other teams one after another, what I send here is that I am not in a hurry, I will go slowly.

Several times he thought about chasing him lightly, and then he remembered what his uncle said, don't rush forward, don't put down your luggage to chase, you must fight steadily.

It doesn't matter how the enemy runs, can they still run into the sea?If they go to the sky, you will take their place on earth.

So Li Wenzhong had to march at a normal speed, with scouts running around, and the enemy retreated as soon as they saw his team.

It's not that there is no gain at all, no matter how fast the enemy withdraws, they will always drop some luggage.

For example, for the first time, due to the fast marching speed, the enemy did not react and dropped a large amount of cattle, horses and luggage.

But after that, it was gone, only broken wood and other things left, which can be used to burn fire, and animal bones left over from hunting by the other party.

As for the dead animals, don't even think about it, as long as they die, people will share the meat.

I can't throw away weapons, and I don't have any food. The most annoying thing is that I want to hunt, and the beasts along the way have been cleaned up by the enemy.

"It's a good thing we brought a lot of rations, otherwise it would be difficult to support us on our way, and they wanted us to lure us there.

Little by little, their team gathered together, yes, they were trading space for time, fortifying the wall and clearing the field.

In the end, we will concentrate our superior forces to fight with us, hum!Then let's not chase, my God! "

Li Wenzhong felt that his brain had problems, he gritted his teeth and wanted to chase lightly, and then forced himself to calm down.

"General, let's eat a fish!" The curtain of the tent was lifted, and Li Wenzhong's subordinate Han Zheng came in, holding a stick in his hand, and a grilled fish was pierced on the stick.

"Where did the fish come from?" Li Wenzhong was surprised when he saw the fish.

"In the river, there are fish in the river where we camped, and then there are soldiers who turned out to be Dan people.

He made a fishhook out of a sewing needle, dug up earthworms by the river and threw them in to catch. This one was the biggest.

Others are also distributed to the generals. Everyone takes turns to fish now. Some people have never caught a fish, but they keep fishing. "

When Han Zheng talked about the origin of the fish, there were everyone in the team.

"Sit down and eat together." Li Wenzhong signaled Han Zheng to sit down and share together: "If we had known, we would have brought fishing nets, and if we couldn't catch the enemy, we would have caught fish."

Han Zheng sat down and scraped off the burnt area with a knife: "Don't worry, general, the enemy should be worried.

General Xu Da had already defeated Wang Baobao on the middle road, and he was less than [-] miles away from Helin, so he sent reinforcements there.

The people in Helin are anxious, and they will inevitably urge the troops of King Qin from all walks of life to go back.

And our enemies either fight us or run faster, not always faster than us.

Otherwise, when the West Route Army also joins forces with Lin, once He Lin is lost, where can the enemy in front of us go? "

Han Zheng analyzed the situation between the enemy and us, and now the opposite Harzhang has only two choices.

Li Wenzhong picked up the fish with chopsticks, and put it on a plate to dip in salt: "You can eat it too, but don't put cumin in the fish, it will suppress the umami taste of the fish.

You are right, we have to be ready at any time, Harizhang is likely to sneak attack.

Starting tomorrow, the soldiers will be given good food to boost their strength, and the flintlock team will remain vigilant at all times. "

After speaking, Li Wenzhong put the fish into his mouth, tasted it carefully, and seemed to be in a much better mood.
