Cao Cao's chef

Chapter 631

From Xudu to Qiaoxian County, it is all within the control of the imperial court, which is also a safe range, so Cao Cao asked for a forced march, traveling 150 miles a day.This also means that, except for dinner, there will be no cooking at other times.

"Is this the rhythm of arriving in Qiao County within five or six days?" Wang Yong's Huotou Army, along with the supply troops, was behind. Due to the forced march, it was obviously separated from Cao Cao's troops.

"It's just that this is too messy!" Cai Yan complained directly, "How can such a huge supply force adapt to a 150-mile march a day? The key is that we are also responsible for dinner every night!"

For her, marching was originally very reluctant, but it turned out to be a hurried march. Not only did she have to follow the predetermined route and arrive at the designated place within the specified time, but the key was to prepare dinner and the like within an hour.

It takes a while to unload the materials, let alone bury the pot and prepare firewood. It can be said that after arriving at the destination, they will start to get busy almost immediately, and there is almost no room for rest.

"After all, one hour after dinner, you have to go to bed. You have to get up at Mao the next day. You have to reach the next destination before You. You eat at Wu and rest at Hai. Counting the morning break, you only rest for about five hours a day." .The earlier you eat, the more time you have to rest!" Wen Ming replied.

There is no need to bury pots for breakfast and lunch, just eat dry food, so get up at Maoshi ([-]:[-] am to [-]:[-] am) and gather for no more than two quarters of an hour to start the expedition. Eat dry food while marching, and eat dry food when you are thirsty. Drink water.Weishi ([-]:[-] noon to [-]:[-] noon) rests for an hour, also eats dry food, and finds a cool place to rest.

"Having said that, it is the safest situation to travel thirty miles an hour. If it rains or other circumstances, it will be very difficult for thirty miles an hour!" Cai Yan didn't know anything don't know.Generally speaking, one hundred miles a day is more normal. You must know that in some places, [-] miles a day is very difficult for garbage troops.

"When it's raining, you must slow down. My lord calculated the marching distance based on the limit of the entire army. As long as you work hard, you can actually do it. War is about speed, the faster you react, the faster you react. The bigger the chance of victory, don't complain if we don't let us make two or three hundred miles a day! After all, the three of us have horses to ride, think about those middle and low-level officers and soldiers who don't have horses!" Wang Yong turned back and said.

After Ma Teng swore allegiance to the imperial court, the imperial court used him as an intermediary to buy a lot of Xiliang horses from the Qiang people. Even so, they could only be equipped at the first level of a military marquis (with [-] soldiers under his jurisdiction), and they were all only for transportation. .Good horses have been used to form cavalry units. Only horse-drawn carts and poor horses can be issued to middle-level officers for transportation.

As for the first rank of captain, some are ordinary second-class war horses, and some have their own war horses, such as Wang Yong.

"But I don't like riding horses! My delicate skin will be worn out after riding a horse for a day. Is there no carriage to ride in?" Cai Yan complained directly, yes, this is where she is really depressed .

"Once you get used to it, it won't hurt anymore." This Wang Yong couldn't help her either. He had spent a lot of effort to get used to riding a horse, but the inner sides of his legs were covered with calluses.

"It's calloused, it's thick and uncomfortable to the touch! And if you ride a horse for a long time, your legs will subconsciously bend and open, and that look is really ugly!" Cai Yan is still complaining.

"Anyway, I usually wear a long robe, and no one will tell that it's not..." Wang Yong retorted directly.

"How can I do housework while wearing a robe?" Cai Yan directly retorted, "Besides, as a servant, wouldn't it be strange to wear a robe to work?!"

That's right, not everyone knows how to wear Han robes, especially those ordinary people, who basically wear bunts.A robe is beautiful, but it is not as convenient as a bunt.

"My lord, there is a troop ahead..." Wen Ming said suddenly, and indeed he saw a troop on the horizon. He thought he had caught up with the big troop, but it was almost You Hour anyway.

"What kind of troops, we are still some distance away from our destination, and we probably won't arrive within a quarter of an hour. Besides, there is still some time before Youshi! By the way, where are the troops from?!" Cai Yan looked at the sky and roughly calculated After a while, I first refuted it, and then suddenly realized that it was wrong.

"So, the army in front of us may not be our own?" Wang Yong narrowed his eyes slightly, the distance between the two sides was still a bit far, but he could still see the silhouette of the other party.

Sure enough, it wasn't Cao Jun's regular army, or it wasn't Cao Jun at all.A group of guys wearing old leather and wooden armors, the weapons in their hands are also messy, and there is no uniformity at all.

"It seems that we have encountered robbers, the number of them is about three thousand, all of them are soldiers, be careful!" Wang Yong said slowly, and then waved his hand, and soon there were soldiers who helped him take the weapon away. The long knife was handed over.

Auxiliary soldiers are auxiliary soldiers. Although they are called 'soldiers', they have hardly undergone rigorous training.Basically, when recruiting soldiers, those who were particularly good were selected into the elite troops, and the general ones were selected into the ordinary regular army troops. Those with poorer health or who were good at cooking were assigned to the fire-headed army and the supply troops.

In other words, the auxiliary soldiers are completely a group of leftover soldiers. Although they may not all be waste materials, they can't be counted on too much.It was because he was not good at killing the enemy, or did not have the determination to kill the enemy, that he was driven here in the end.

"So, I can only deal with these 3000 people... Of course it is impossible?" Wang Yong sighed, "Let everyone form an formation, even if you don't expect to kill the enemy to the maximum, at least do your best. Bao! Immediately notify the guards to come to support!"

The guard army, the last guard force in the main force, is to protect the supply force at such a moment. The number is about [-], and the combat power is average.It is more about supervision to avoid delays in the rendezvous time caused by the procrastination of the supply units.

"Cao Jun in front, listen!" The leader was a man in his 30s, with a wretched appearance and a slightly thin body.He stepped forward at this moment, waving the tiger-head knife in his hand, and looked at Wang Yong and the others, "We have shortages of food, grass and horses in our cottage. If you are willing to part with each other, I promise not to hurt you at all, how about it?"

He had inquired a long time ago that the last part was the supply unit, which must be leftovers, and only soldiers who no one wanted would come in.The guards don't have much skill either. Regardless of the fact that there are 3 people, if they really fight, they can't say that they can't compare with his [-] elite.

At the same time, he also knew that Cao Cao seemed to be in a hurry to go to Yuzhou, so this time he marched in a hurry.Maybe I didn't expect that there would be thieves in the surrounding area of ​​Xuchang, so I guess I was exhausted after marching quickly.They are waiting for work with ease, under various conditions, this can definitely make a lot of money!
Among other things, these horses, armor and grain are worth a lot of money if they are sold through underground channels!

"The thieves don't want to be rampant, I, Yang Li, are here, and you don't want to escape!" Yang Li, the captain of the guard army, led his army to kill.

But with this name, Wang Yong really doesn't have much impression, he is somewhat worried...
