Little lucky girl from the peasant family: Queen Splendid

Chapter 517

Last year, when Jinhe suddenly diverted its course, five states in Dai Viet were devastated, not to mention half-ripe crops, even houses, cattle and sheep were swallowed up.If Ding Wei and Qin Rui hadn't discovered it in time and tried their best to treat it, the ensuing plague would have killed half of Da Yue's people.

Severe floods followed by severe droughts, the so-called misfortunes never come singly.Sure enough, this year, the Rain God seemed to have forgotten Dayue, except for two or three visits in the early spring night, he never came again.How much the small rivers and streams dry up, the flow of the big rivers is also halved.

But the summer is not too difficult, the wild vegetables are all over the mountains, and some strong wild fruit trees contribute some fruits in autumn.

Seeing the coming winter is a curse for everyone.No one wants to die of freezing and starving in the heavy snow. Families with good families and some food stores are still hesitating, after all, it is difficult to leave their homeland.But the people whose rice tanks are empty at home have already helped the old and the young, carrying baskets and begging while going on the road.

Not long after, the two princes guarding the border towns in the southwest and northwest raised troops one after another, vowing to overthrow the new emperor who "stealed the throne of Dai Viet by means of despicable means", which made the people speed up their rush to the capital.

Not to mention the prosperity of Kyoto, maybe I can find an opportunity to work, there are many rich people in Kyoto, maybe I can beg for more food so that the children and mothers in the family will not starve to death, the most important thing is that the new emperor is the husband of Yun Bodhisattva, a well-known Mars.

With such a new emperor around, the people will never be killed by the flames of war, and they will never be starved to death without being ignored...

With this belief in mind, people from the disaster-stricken prefectures flocked to the capital.Jing Zhaoyin immediately ordered the seven gates to be blocked, allowing only entry and no exit, and then reported the news as if he couldn't wait to see him.

Because the two princes sent troops together, Gong Zhi, who still claimed to be a general, led the Chinese army guarding hundreds of miles away from the capital to fight against him tomorrow morning.

There are only half of the officials left in the imperial city, those who want to serve the country and hope to fight for prosperity and wealth in the troubled times, no matter whether they are civil or military, they all follow the general.The remaining officials, in addition to those who were appointed by Gong Zhiming to manage political affairs, were those who were greedy for life and afraid of death, or had a deep family background, and they would certainly not hurt their bones if they remained neutral.

Although this kind of news makes people anxious, in the final analysis, many people still have a wait-and-see attitude.

So, how many times the news went around in the capital, it was sent to the military camp hundreds of miles away.

Because the two princes sent troops together, there were not many troops in the Chinese army capable of a single battle. With the addition of the generals, the soldiers did not know the generals, and the generals did not know the soldiers. Gong Zhiming was a bit weak in command.

The only way, and the best way, is to wait for work at leisure.

The [-] Chinese troops marched directly to Sanfan City. Although this capital city is not big, it is located on an important pass. The pass connects two main roads in the southwest and northwest. If you want to enter Beijing, you must pass through here …

Ever since the Chinese army set up camp here, Yu Chihui brought two hundred soldiers and was so busy that he could split himself into ten people.There is no other reason. There has been no war in Dai Viet for 20 years. Soldiers are supposed to enter the barracks to find a place to eat. How can there be much combat power at all.

Now that they are about to go to the battlefield suddenly, it would be nice if the soldiers didn't run away in fright.But Gong Zhiming's personal guards are the elite troops who survived the battlefield, so they might be scattered among the soldiers at this time.

One person leads a centurion, trains together, eats and drinks together, and sleeps together.

Wake up early to ask the soldiers to get up, go out for exercises, teach everyone how to stab with long spears to save effort and penetrate deep, when eating, give half of the dry food to the younger soldiers, talk about how delicious the dumplings made by the general's wife are, and go to bed When I get up again, I will cover everyone with quilts, and occasionally talk about the heroic and glorious moments of the general.

If Ding Wei was in front of her, she would definitely exclaim, isn't this the usual practice of a certain red army? The effect of increasing combat power may not be visible for a short time, but it is very fast to gather people's hearts.

The [-] Chinese army saw that the general and himself ate the same corn pancakes, got up early and went to bed late, and even had to deal with political affairs in the middle of the night, patrolling the camp to check, and gradually returned to their hearts.

I no longer find it difficult to swallow the rough pancakes, and I no longer feel scared when talking about the 10,000+ army that will be killed.

At this moment, the sky had just darkened, and many bonfires were lit in the camp. Looking from a distance, the stars were dotted, and there was a different kind of lively beauty.Everyone in the cook camp kept their feet on the ground, and the smell of food wafted out, causing the soldiers who had been training for a day to guess, "What are you eating tonight? It smells so good!"

"I heard that the general took people out to inspect today and came back after hunting two wild boars. Maybe we can eat meat tonight!" A well-informed soldier said with a smile, swallowing saliva in his throat, obviously Very coveted.

The rest of the people couldn't help asking, "Really, really?"

"Of course it's true. I saw with my own eyes that Lieutenant General Yuchi's horse carried a wild boar, and the tusks were half a foot long."

"Ah, really the general fought with his own hands? The general is really powerful!"

Someone saw the centurion bowing his head to add firewood to the bonfire, and asked, "Centurion, tell me a few words, do we have meat to eat?"

Before the centurion could speak, a usual thorn in the side rolled his eyes and poured cold water on everyone.

"Are you stupid? There are 5 people in the entire military camp. Even if we kill ten wild boars, we may not be able to get any bones, let alone eat meat. I am afraid that the meat will be sent to the big tent." Let the generals eat it, let's smell it and it will be good."

Everyone only cared about joy, and they suddenly became depressed when they didn't think of the problem of more wolves and less meat.This is true, even if the general did not keep the good ones from the previous generals, and distributed the wild boars to [-] soldiers on average, I am afraid that each person would not get a bite of the meat.

The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, the more uncomfortable my heart is, and the bonfire becomes quiet for a while.

At this moment, the centurion raised his head, stared at the thorny man with sharp eyes, until he was forced to bow his head, and then said, "I don't know how you used to live, but now The general leads the army, so all the previous rules don’t count. The general is the most compassionate brother. I remember that I just became the general’s personal guard. Once I went out with the general to explore the terrain. The brother who was in charge of bringing dry food lost horses.

In order not to arouse the vigilance of the enemy who is right in front of us, everyone insisted on starving for three days. Later, the general used crossbow arrows to hunt a hare silently. The general also has two mouths, and he didn't eat alone just because he was the general.

It's the same today, whether the general hunts down one wild boar or ten, he won't have one more wild boar in his bowl than we do. "

Everyone half-opened their mouths when they heard it, some didn't believe it, but they also yearned for it.When the thorny lady was about to say something, the cook finally brought over dinner.There are scattered pieces of minced meat scattered in the thick soup in the vat. Although there are few, they are really few. As for who can get it into the bowl, it is purely a matter of luck.

Soon, a bucket of soup and a large basket of corn pancakes were finished.

The centurion raised his chopsticks and put the only piece of meat in his bowl into the bowl of the youngest and thinnest soldier, and said in a low voice, "I will never regret being able to serve under the great general."

Everyone nodded, and the 5 people shared a few wild boars. There were pieces of meat in the bowls of these ordinary soldiers. Even fools knew that the pork was not kept privately by the general.It turns out that sharing joys and sorrows is not just a slogan, but the master has indeed done it.

At this moment, no one spoke, they just sipped soup and ate pancakes silently, and even that woman showed her habitual displeasure...

In the general's big tent, the soup bowls on the table really didn't have much meat in them. The lieutenants saw that Gong Zhiming was eating rice pancakes with hot soup in a leisurely manner. They looked at each other and swallowed their words. I went back, endured the protest of my stomach, and bit into the pancakes.

Originally, they also thought that a general who grew up in Fugui Township, with royal blood, would not suffer much.Spreading the world-famous reputation was mostly rumored by outsiders, but after seeing it with their own eyes, and it took half a month after seeing it, they were still convinced after all.

In the past half month, it was true that the soldiers ate porridge and they ate porridge, and the soldiers ate pancakes and they ate pancakes, nothing special at all.

No, if it is special, it is really a little bit.

Just when everyone was halfway through eating, the curtain of the tent was lifted from the outside.Forsythia with a flushed face came in from the outside carrying one or two large bowls, and the strong spicy aroma overflowed from the bowls, causing everyone to sit upright immediately, their eyes were almost full of joy run out.

If it is said that the food in the military camp made these generals who were well-to-do and who grew up in rich clothes fall into the endless darkness, then this pungent maid who was suddenly found a few days ago is the only ray of light in the darkness.

Forsythia glanced at the many generals with her big eyes, she was really angry and funny.Why didn't so many people come to eat with the general before? Ever since she tried her best to make a small stove for the general, they have all become more attentive.

But this is also good. After all, the general has just taken over the military power, and the foundation is not stable. It would be good to win over these old generals.

Thinking of this, she smiled and said, "I was afraid that the generals had finished eating, so they rushed to deliver the food. Doctor Xiao Zhou had set up two rabbits in the trench outside, and I made a pot of spicy rabbits." Meat, if you generals don’t dislike it, you can have a bite with our master.”

"Miss Forsythia is too polite!"

"That's right, I'm a rough-speaking person. To be honest, I've been waiting for your words all day. I can't taste Miss Forsythia's craftsmanship, so I miss it when I go to bed at night!"

In the big tent, because of the two bowls of rabbit meat, it immediately became lively.

Lian Qiao put the smaller bowl of rabbit meat in front of her master, and the larger bowl was placed in the middle of the table, everyone was rude, rushed forward and snatched up the rabbit meat in an instant.At the end, Youyou joked reluctantly, "Miss Lianqiao's skills are almost as good as an imperial cook. If the girl wants to change her master in the future, she must come to my house."
