The Little Cook's Wealthy Counterattack

In the account of the chief General of Xuanjia army, Guli looked at the secret letter sent by Lin Yuancai, sat calmly in front of the desk and spread out the hand-painted map of Jiang qianxia.

"The 50000 looting army of Guli people should have raided eastward along the krulun River, robbed some villages and towns near Qingping City, and took the opportunity to enter Liaodong Road for harvest."

Pointing out the marching direction of Guli people accurately bit by bit on the map, Guli said angrily: "why do Guli people suddenly abandon Liaodong Road and take the initiative to detour north?"

Lin Yuan shook his folding fan and said with a contemptuous smile, "why else? It's only a day since our army arrived in Qingping City, but we didn't hide it on the military road. It's natural for the news to leak out."

"Well, of course, the marching route of the army can be well known by the savage Gu Li people. My Lord didn't die under the assassination of the dead. It's really blessed by my ancestors."

"Don't run people here. If you didn't want to give sister shallow Xia a safe place to live, I would have cut off all those who secretly deliver letters."

He turned his eyes angrily. Lin Yuan sat cross legged at the table, pointed to the flat and vast grassland in the north of Qingping city and said, "since we have forced those barbarians to go north and bypass, we can't sit and watch them drive straight into Liaodong Road."

"Although there is no danger to defend this place, the Xuanjia army is strong, and the number of our army is twice that of the Guli people. How about a hunter killing them here?"

Guli lost his seriousness and chuckled and threw out another secret letter. Lin Yuan opened it and smiled with white teeth.

"Yimu Khan is seriously ill and comatose? Hahaha! The ushna family will definitely be in chaos! The 50000 bone barbarians can't have reinforcements. We can eat them all in one go!"

"No, this battle is mainly about repulsion."

Guli tapped his finger on the map and said evil: "these 50000 Guli people are the tribal soldiers of dongguli. Dongguli has always been a big trouble for me. Let them have enough troops to go back and rob the rich grassland with xiguli, and we can have a good year."

"Really want to let them go back?"

Xiao Jiu, who had just entered the account, scratched his head and said a little reluctantly, "let them go. What about the military skills of the brothers?"

He picked up the big bowl of tea on the table and drank it. Xiao Jiu spit out a few pieces of tea, pointed to the South and said, "since we took charge of the Xuanjia army, those civil servants in the dynasty have not given the Xuanjia army a good day."

"Even if the food is not as good as that of the garrison in Beijing, our equipment has not been replaced for nearly two years. All the repairs are carried out by our families out of their own pocket. That's why the officials scold us for having the bad habits of merchants and exploiting the people!"

Seeing that Lin Yuan and Guli were silent, Xiao Jiu sighed and said in a low voice, "we are the children of the general. It's nothing to go through life and death for Da Qian. As long as your majesty still believes in us, we won't lack military merit and favor."

"But the brothers at the bottom are different. We all have several Zhuangzi specially used to accommodate disabled veterans. Those we can't accommodate will either become rich thugs or become bandits after returning home."

"If we don't find some military merit for our brothers, I'm really afraid that they will struggle to survive on the battlefield and be forced to death by their own people when they return home."

Xiao Jiu is talking about the current situation of professional soldiers.

Most of the troops of the Daqian Empire were soldiers in wartime and were farm soldiers in peacetime. These soldiers did not fight anymore. They also had their own fields when they returned home. They had military achievements, reduced agricultural taxes and had enough to eat.

However, although the professional soldiers led by Xuan Jiajun practiced every day and fought in all directions, their combat effectiveness was far from comparable to that of the government soldiers, they also lost the retreat of the government soldiers.

Once disabled and retired, they are likely to starve to death

Guli was disappointed and meditated for a moment. Pointing to the eastern grassland in Guli territory, Guli said, "the fight is still based on repulsion. Lin Yuan, prepare a good hand. At that time, spread the news of Yimu Khan's serious illness. Guli looting team knows what to do."

"As for the brothers' military skills, they raised the number of enemy troops killed by the array by 30% and reported it. In addition, it would not take 100000 troops to expel 50000 unstable Guli people. Let the remaining two brothers, with 20000 people, go around the looting army and loot the herdsmen who wanted to beat the autumn wind."

Closing the map, Guli said with a smile, "the herdsmen of the Guli people look dirty and poor, but they can sell silver, jade, cattle and sheep at a good price. After the booty is sold, get some money for their brothers and put it in their hands. It's better than military skill."

The three men discussed again and made a plan for the march of the army to the north. When Xiao Jiu turned to go out to let the school captains organize the army, he suddenly remembered his purpose of finding the door and turned around again.

"You two passed out. I'm not here to talk about military affairs with you!"

"What are you doing here?" Lin Yuan asked with a smile.

"It was Qian Xia's servant girl who came to the door and said that Qian Xia had a conflict with the teaching mammy assigned to her by the ritual officer. One of the servant girls hurt her face and asked her to come over for some ice."

Guli and Lin Yuanqi were stunned. Guli frowned and said, "she is soft and can be called by any soldier in the army. How could she conflict with mother Xi? She was bullied?"

"I'm also surprised. It's reasonable to say that civil servants should rob people from us. They will try to win over sister shallow Xia. I didn't expect that their servant girls were injured shortly after they left us."

Xiao Jiu scratched his head, glanced at them and said tentatively, "why don't I follow the ice truck back to the city to see what's wrong? Sister Qian Xia is from our Xuanjia army. She's alone outside. Don't be bullied and cry."

Guli looked at Xiao Jiu with a little malice. He found that he was jealous of his jumping brother.

Xiao Jiu can leave the army and run to support the little cook, but he, a loyal general and the chief General of Xuanjia army, can't easily leave the Chinese army. Even if you want to see the little cook again, you can only think about it.

Angry, he stared at Xiao Jiu and shrunk his neck. Guli spit out a turbid breath and said gloomily, "take your guard and Wu Xiong."

"If there is really someone who doesn't know how to deal with it, you should see to it yourself. Don't lose the prestige of our Xuanjia army. As for Wu Xiong, let him turn into a logistics medical soldier and stay with shallow Xia."

With cold frost in his eyes, Guli said coldly, "I don't know how many evil forces have placed spies in the servants of qianxia."

"Lin Yuan, send someone to check. All the others, except the generals, the Wanbao Pavilion and the empress, have a chance to clean up."
