-------------

I have to say that Song Yi's luck was really not very good. When he left Daying and went to Wuyan to see his son Song Xiang off, some natural disasters and man-made disasters happened.

Anyang is located in the Yellow River Basin in the north. It is already October at this time, and it is already the season of late autumn and winter, and it is also a season with less drought.However, this year is a bit abnormal. Since more than 20 days ago, the winter rain has continued intermittently.The impact of weather changes on marching operations is self-evident.It would be better if it snowed, but it happened to be continuous rain.Make everything extra moist.Compared with the bitter cold wind in winter, this damp chill is more bleak and bone-chilling.

The food was moldy, the clothes and bedding were damp and cold, and the ground was covered with muddy mud. It was very inconvenient to move, and the basic necessities of life were affected. The whole army was really unhappy.Everything is integrated together, and the accumulation of less becomes more, and the accumulation of accumulation is thin.The generals and soldiers of the Chu army suffered unspeakably, endless cursing and clasping fists came one after another, and various discussions and speculations followed.

"Didn't you say to rescue Zhao Guo? Why have you stayed in this place and stagnated?"

"Who knows, we soldiers can only follow orders!"

"Rather than starving and freezing in this place, it's better to fight on the battlefield and have a full meal..."

"What the hell is the weather in Anyang? I heard that there is no rain in Zhao State, so it won't be so gloomy and cold. It would be better to go forward and send troops earlier."

"Yeah! I'm so cold!"

"It is said that if Julu City is destroyed, our Chu Kingdom will not be spared, and Pengcheng will bear the brunt..."

Someone was very worried and said: "Oh my god! My parents, wife and children are still in Pengcheng!"

"I heard that General Song Yi deliberately delayed and was unwilling to save Zhao, just like Marshal Yuanxiang who refused to come soon."

Someone finally got to the point, and the angry soldiers finally found the culprit, and finally had someone to vent their anger on.Many of them hated and admired Xiang Liang. When they heard that he was murdered by a traitor, and when they thought of the current situation, they were very angry.

"Ah? Marshal Xiang died miserably, the brothers who died in battle are really unfortunate, Song Yi is really a despicable villain..."

"It is said that Song Yi is having a good time with the Qi people in Wuyan."

"What? Debauchery?"

"It's not fair that we suffer hunger and cold while we are happy and carefree!"

"Why is it with the Qi people? Could it be that not sending troops is colluding with the Qi people?"

Just when rumors spread in the barracks, the news spread like wildfire, spreading throughout the entire camp in the shortest possible time.Like a heavy depth charge, it caused a huge wave.

The rumors in the early days had made the soldiers of the Chu State subconsciously think that now they were cold and hungry in the heavy rain, and Song Yi was responsible for the suffering of hunger and cold.Now I also learned that he was drinking and drinking, eating good wine and meat, making us cold and hungry.The huge gap has deeply stimulated the simple and bloody soldiers, it is too unfair...

Endless complaints and deep resentment welled up in the hearts of all the soldiers of the Chu army. The name Song Yi made them hate to the bone and gnash their teeth.I even want to drink his blood, eat his flesh, and sleep on his skin (exaggeration)...

The generals under Song Yi also explained, but everyone thought that there was no 300 taels of silver here, because Song Yi was indeed not in the barracks.The general justified that he went to investigate the military situation, but few people believed it. The commander who was stagnant, avoiding the war and fearing the enemy went to investigate the military situation in person?Don't think that soldiers are all big bosses.

Especially in the event of an accident, the soldiers of the three armed forces are sure that there is good luck and believe in it.A few carriages were driving into the barracks these days, but unfortunately they overturned. There was a series of ping-ping-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong ceramics breaking sounds, followed by the tangy aroma of wine immediately permeating the air.Float along the stagnant water on the ground and fill the entire barracks.

The soldiers are all young men who are naturally sensitive to alcohol.So many soldiers came out out of curiosity to find out.The carriage turned over on the school field in the middle of the camp. The scene could be described as three floors inside and three floors outside, and the surrounding area was impenetrable.

"It's a pity that such a fine wine is ruined like this!"

"Where did these drinks come from? Are they here to reward the army?"

Someone familiar suddenly exclaimed: "This is the fruit wine from Li's shop without salt. It is the only one in Qichu. I had the opportunity to drink it once, and the taste is unforgettable for three lifetimes!"

While being curious and envious, someone asked, "How come the drinks from Li's shop appear here?"

The driver and the accompanying workers became the only answer. Under the siege and questioning of many soldiers, the driver finally couldn't help but said: "This is ordered by a Chu general named Song. He has been drinking with us for several days. Yes, it tastes good. So I bought some more and put them back for storage. Then I rewarded some of his soldiers and sent us to send them here. Who knew that the car was overturned in the rain and the road was slippery, and the wine should be broken if it was broken. How do I explain it to General Song?" The driver's expression was very realistic, and he couldn't help but shed tears in a hurry, which won a lot of sympathy.

As far as the soldiers were concerned, they got another piece of news, that is, Song Yi was enjoying himself without salt.The driver of the hotel has already proved that it is all right for the dignified general to sneak out to drink, and he bought these back to store more for drinking.There is a strict alcohol prohibition in the army, but Song Yi, as a general, knowingly commits a crime, isn't it an extra crime?Also, the reward is only given to the handwriting around him, which is too stingy.

Regardless of their identities and doubts, or their unbalanced hearts, the soldiers of the Chu Army all recognized the facts, and their resentment and doubts towards Song Yi went further and became even more furious.Almost to a tipping point, it is only a matter of time before the outbreak occurs.

Yin Xu and Xiang Yu stood in the distance, watching the chaotic scene and couldn't help laughing to themselves. Seeing the red-faced and thick-necked faces of the soldiers, they knew the plan had succeeded.Xiang Yu waved his hand gently, and hundreds of guards scattered in the distance withdrew. These people were artificially preventing excessive chaos and mutiny.

Xiang Zhuang looked at Yin Xu and joked: "I said Donglai, where did you find these people, their acting skills are so clumsy that they almost exposed themselves."

Everyone couldn't help laughing when they heard it.

Yin Xu shook his head and smiled and said: "Time is in a hurry, we have to buy drinks and arrange staff, how can we all go as we want. It doesn't matter if the acting is poor, what matters is that the audience believes that today's performance is very good. In fact, in the final analysis, we are just following the public opinion, you Don't you know? Some people's behavior has already provoked anger and hatred..."

"Haha!" Everyone laughed again, Xiang Zhuang pointed at Yin Xu and said, "You, you, why didn't I realize that you are still so cunning..."

Yin Xu said: "Now the anger of the soldiers of the three armies has been aroused, and the critical point is approaching. Once you gain the morale of the army, everything will be easy to do."

Xiang Yu said: "It's such a big deal, the subordinates must have sent him a message, let's wait! I've already arranged the preparations, and we'll talk about it when he comes back!"

Xiang Zhuang said with a smile: "It's Donglai's credit for this matter, and he came up with such a damaging method..."

Everyone burst into laughter, and Yin Xu was caught in the middle, laughing and cursing; "Stinky boy, are you scolding me or praising me? Be careful that I arrange it so that you will be notorious? You must know that the power of public opinion is powerful, haha!"
