In fact, these are all excuses. Wen Shanchang is just a lustful person. Although he can't do anything in the army, having so many warblers around him is so pleasing to the eye, isn't it?
So I don’t know whether the wounded soldiers will be in a beautiful mood. Anyway, Wen Shanchang’s mood became beautiful first...
But under Wen Shanchang's careful training and countless experiences, these girls have really learned quite professional medical care knowledge.
And she became the first batch of professional female nurses in Yanyun County...the entire Zhou Dynasty...or the world.
It was like creating history unintentionally, and Elder Wen Shan was really proud of himself.
An additional 3,600 people appeared out of thin air, which greatly increased their strength, but food also became a problem.
The Ministry of Household Affairs only distributed food according to the original number of people, and it was distributed once a day, and it was only distributed to Yanyunguan and ignored.
Xiao Chen had to send people to transport it himself. Although the army had plenty of carts, mules, horses and civilian laborers, the mountain road was rugged and narrow and extremely difficult to navigate, making transportation quite difficult.
But it’s okay that the mountain road is difficult to travel. At least this section of the road is relatively safe. There is no need to worry about the intrusion of the Xianbo people. Once out of the mountain, it will be a flat plain. How will the food and grass be transported?
Xiao Chen and the others had expected this a long time ago. In the past month, they had spent a lot of money to get more than two thousand stones of food, and they brought all the people on the carriage and horse with them.
This food is enough to feed an army of 10,000 people for a month, but now that there are more than 3,000 rations, they can only last for more than 20 days.
According to the original plan, they were planning to occupy Niutoushan as a foothold. Now that they have received the latest information, Niutoushan has not yet been lost, so it is even more important to go over and join forces with the local defenders.
But now the situation is different from before. The Xianbo people have begun to gather at the northern foot of Yanyun Mountain. The current number of troops is unknown.
If there are tens of thousands of soldiers, it will not be easy for Xiao Chen and the others to fight their way out. The advantage of the Xianbo cavalry is mobile combat. Xiao Chen cannot fight them while walking, which is equivalent to a sheep entering a tiger's mouth.
There is also the issue of food and grass. Once they come into contact with the Xianbo cavalry, their food routes will definitely be cut off. If they cannot reach Niutoushan within a month and are instead besieged on the way, what will happen if their food and grass are cut off? ?
So now Xiao Chen faces two choices. One is to go north regardless of the situation, break through the difficulties and obstacles, and reach Niutoushan all the way. After joining the defenders, he has temporarily gained a foothold and can calmly plan for the future. .
But what if there is no food and grass in Niutoushan? Maybe they have some food in store, but it may be enough for a few hundred people. If more than 10,000 troops are stationed, they may not be able to supply it.
Li Shi said that there might be a secret granary left by the big man in Niutou Mountain. Xiao Chen had known about this for a long time, but the secret granary showed that it was not easy to find.
And even if the granary is found, it is still unknown whether there is still food in it, how much food is there, and whether it is rotten or damaged.
The second option is to camp in formation at the northern foot of Yanyun Mountain and face the Xianbo cavalry head-on.
In this way, there will always be an adequate supply of food and grass, but the plain facing the north of the mountain not only has no city, but also no natural dangers to hold on to. If you fight them here, you will definitely suffer a big loss.
Moreover, Qin Gang, Xue Jinshan and others also said that the Xianbo people are making catapults. This kind of awesome long-range curved firepower is so terrible that even solid cities can be destroyed by you, and no matter how solid your camp is, it can't stop it. Well, the result is a crackling mess.
Zhuge Xiaosheng temporarily stationed in the forest about five miles away from the mountain pass, and everyone discussed the next battle plan.
At present, he urgently needs to know the distribution of the Xianbo people in Shanbei. He has sent out more than a dozen groups of scouts to investigate, but none of them have come back. This means that the situation may be very bad, and the Xianbo people are probably close at hand.
"I'll go!" Duan Linger saw that everyone was frowning and looking sad, so he raised his little hand high and volunteered.
"Go, go, you will be everywhere!" Xiao Chen scolded him.
"Boss, everyone, have you forgotten what I, the Winged Guard, do? I just spy on intelligence. This is exactly what I am responsible for, so it is my responsibility." Duan Ling'er said loudly.
That's what she said, but in fact everyone thought that the Wing Guard she founded was just a child's nonsense, and they didn't tell her what she could do. Didn't Zhuge Xiaosheng directly classify her as a private soldier?
Besides, she is not familiar with the terrain at all. Are you pointing her to get information? It would be strange not to get lost.
And obviously the Xianbo cavalry is nearby. It is very dangerous to go out to spy on information now. Those dozen groups of scouts are all experienced scouts and they have not come back, let alone a little girl like her.
So no.
"Are you looking down on me?" Duan Linger finally understood what the big guy meant.
"It's not that I look down on you, it's just that you've just arrived and are not familiar with the situation yet. We'll talk about it later when you get familiar with it. Be good, don't make trouble, let's talk about business." Xiao Chen comforted her and drove her out directly.
Do you think Duan Linger is angry?
The brothers outside the tent gathered around her when they saw her coming out. How are you doing, little boss? General, have you come to take photos of us?
"What the hell! They look down on me at all... us!" Duan Ling'er pouted her little mouth angrily.
Ugh...this is too much.
The brothers were all excited after hearing this.
Aren’t we elite? Good steel should be used on the blade. Now it's our turn to make meritorious deeds, but aren't we allowed to be ridiculous?
They can't treat us like this!
"But General Zhuge didn't say we weren't allowed to go, right?" A thin man reminded the little boss softly.
"Huh?" Duan Linger understood immediately.
Yes, didn't he just say it? Besides, it would be useless if he didn't let me go? We are the Guards directly subordinate to the eldest marshal, but we are not under the jurisdiction of Zhuge Xiaosheng!
The boss didn’t say not to go...
I don’t have to listen to what he said! Don’t you believe he can still beat me?
Come back to the camp with me, and let's discuss it carefully.
Duan Linger will not act recklessly, and she knows the current situation well, so she must not go there rashly, she must plan for it.
You also said that I am not familiar with the terrain. Have you forgotten that I have just recruited more than a hundred local people?
Can you guys tell me what's going on around here?
While they were plotting, a man suddenly broke in. Did everyone get shocked? It can be seen that the thief has a guilty conscience.
But it was Xiao Ye, who didn't know much about military meetings. He got bored and came out to find Duan Linger.
"We're going to go out to gather information later. Will you go?" Duan Linger was not discussing with him.
"Brother, will you let me go?" Xiao Ye scratched his head.
"My brother won't let me go, but my sister will let you go!" Duan Ling'er grabbed his ear, "Tell me, who do you listen to?"
