After lunch, Xiao Han once again looked at the consumption figures calculated by the adjutant, and felt his eyes go dark.
"It turns out that appetite really increases as the food tastes better! If I had known better, I wouldn't have made it so delicious!"
Looking up to the sky and sighing, Xiao Han finally no longer expected that the army's appetite would suddenly shrink! Instead, he lowered his head and began to think about where such a large food gap should come from!
"It's definitely unrealistic to go to the emperor. How about buying some with your own money?"
This idea just popped into my head and I haven’t taken a firm stand yet! He was pinched to death by Xiao Han! Then throw it to the back of your head!
Although with his family's financial resources, he could still afford two days' worth of food for the army! But in that case, the sin of inviting someone to buy military morale will definitely not go away!
Even if the army of the Tang Dynasty died of poverty, it could only be raised by the Tang Dynasty! As for you paying to help?
What, you want to rebel? ! Look at history, spend money to help the country raise its army! Build the city wall! Those who died are old and miserable~
Xiao Han is not a god, let alone Monkey King!
Apart from the pain, pulling out a few hairs would not produce any flowers, so after thinking hard for a while, he still found nothing, so he had to wave to the fool leading the horse and asked:
"Hey, Bajie...cough, idiot! I want to ask you something, how did we deal with the lack of food in the army before?"
When the fool in front heard Xiao Han calling him, he quickly fell back a few steps, came to Xiao Han's side, and said with a smile: "Master Hou, you really asked the right person! I heard my uncle say this question before, If they had no food to eat before, they would go out and borrow it!"
"Go and borrow it? Who can I borrow it from?" Xiao Han was overjoyed to see that the fool looked confident, and he quickly leaned down from the horse and asked.
The fool looked at Xiao Han's curious look, grinned widely, and said: "Of course, whoever has the food can borrow it! My uncle said that as long as the army is blocked at the door of the landlords and old wealthy people, they will naturally Just send the food out! If you are short of horses, you can do this! They call this just... just...?"
Speaking of this happily, Lengzi suddenly got stuck. He couldn't remember the word that Uncle Lengzi said!
While racking his brains to think back, a voice suddenly came from beside him: "Just feed the enemy!"
"Yes! Just defeat the enemy with food!" Upon hearing this, the fool suddenly beamed! If it’s four words, don’t we know how to say it?
But soon, the fool stopped laughing! Xiao Han, who was sitting on the horse, hit him on the head with a fried chestnut, which made him almost squat on the ground in pain!
"It's all about food! We are regular troops, not bandits! Damn it, why bother borrowing it! Believe it or not, if I borrow food today, my head will be hung on a flagpole to dry tomorrow?! Seven bans, fifty Four cuts, you haven’t memorized them!”
Xiao Han's saliva sprayed all over his head! This idiot, he thought he could come up with a solution, but he had a bad idea! Even if there is no ban! If you want to rob something, you have to rob other people too! There are all my own people around here, how can I do this?
"Eh? Wait, our own people? Robbers?"
Xiao Han is still complaining about iron not becoming steel! Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind like lightning, turning him to stone. He even forgot to wipe the saliva from his mouth.
"That's right! Our own people can't rob, so why not rob the robbers and bandits?! When the world is in chaos, there seems to be no shortage of these things, right? They have done all kinds of bad things, and they are extremely rich! I will rob them, We can eliminate harm for the people and get supplies at the same time! Only we can think of such a genius method!"
The more Xiao Han thought about it, the more excited he became, and the more he thought about it, the more feasible it became! Vaguely, golden light flashed in his eyes! It seems that he has seen those bandits and robbers donate all their money and food!
Seeing Xiao Han, who was staring blankly on the horse and laughing non-stop, the fool who kept rubbing his head shuddered and quickly moved a few steps aside. His master was about to suffer from hysteria again!
"Lunzi, eh? Where are you! Why are you running so far!" Soon, Xiao Han, who came back to his senses, subconsciously wanted to reach out to catch the lunatic! Unexpectedly, the catch was empty. After a closer look, he found that the fool had run to the side and was pulling the reins from a distance.
"Coming, coming!" Seeing Xiao Han Qingming coming over, the idiot stopped hiding and hurriedly ran back.
Xiao Han didn't have time to argue with this guy anymore, so he directly ordered: "Quick! Find me someone who is familiar with this area! I want to do something big!"
"You're doing something big? What are you doing? Didn't you say you can't rob anymore?"
Although he was puzzled by Xiao Han's request, the idiot was too cautious and didn't dare to ask, for fear of getting another meal in vain! He put the reins into the hands of Xiaodong, who was yawning over there, and ran out.
As mentioned before, the army of the Tang Dynasty was mainly composed of government soldiers.
The so-called government soldiers are farmers in peacetime and soldiers in wartime!
This model can maintain a strong army without overburdening the country and leaving farmers with no strong labor force to use! It is the most important mode of raising troops today.
Since the soldiers work as farmers on weekdays, their sources are very wide, almost distributed throughout the Guanzhong area! So if you want to find someone who is familiar with the terrain, it will be easy.
After the order was given, Xiao Han saw a lame man and a panting soldier squeezing through the advancing team within a short while.
"Master Marquis, he said he is from around here!" The fool came to Xiao Han with great effort, gasped and said, and then pulled the soldier over unceremoniously.
What a coincidence, the soldier that the fool caught was exactly the one who was scolded by the veteran this morning!
Now his face is full of nervousness, and his head is almost stuck in the fool's ass!
"What's your name? Xiao Han glanced at this person and asked slowly.
The soldier didn't dare to raise his head, he just kept holding his hands in his hands: "My... my name is Sun Ergou!"
"Two dogs?" When Xiao Han heard this name, he immediately felt dumbfounded.
He really couldn't figure it out, why did people in the Tang Dynasty love to bark dogs?
The one in my family is called Gouzi, and this one is called Ergou. Will there be another third dog in the future, a dead dog?
"No matter what, he can be called whatever he wants, that's his parents' business! It's none of his business!"
Thinking about it like this, Xiao Han put on a pleasant look again and asked him again: "Little grandson... ahem, Coyotito... ahem, Ergou, your family lives near here?"
Sun Ergou originally heard that Xiao Han was looking for him, and he was at a loss for a long time. He was so nervous that he didn't know what to do. Now seeing that this military legend is so easy to talk to, the anxiety in his heart finally disappeared.
After glancing at Xiao Han secretly, Sun Ergou carefully answered, "Yes, my house is right in front."
