"Restore the previous meals?" Xiao Han glanced at the guilty Tieniu with contempt, and said with a groan: "Then what I said two days ago still counts? Do you take the bragging these days seriously? ? The real man spits and nails every time! I have no intention of throwing my face to the ground and stomping on it!"
"Then...then Lord Marquis, please tell us the rules, and we will follow your lead!"
As soon as he heard that Xiao Han was not planning to change the food, the fattest captain breathed a sigh of relief and eagerly jumped out to express his opinion!
He is not a fool if he can become a captain! Xiao Han came to them today, definitely not just to complain or out of boredom! If this young quartermaster didn't have a plan, then the more than 200 kilograms of fat on his body would be in vain, and he might as well use it to boil oil!
Hearing the fat captain say this, Xiao Han finally smiled and nodded, and his eyes softened when he looked at him.
"The matter is actually easy to solve!" Xiao Han touched his chin and said: "There is a certain amount of food a person can eat in a day! No matter how delicious it is, it is impossible to eat it without restraint! Also, people As long as you eat one more bite of vegetables, you will eat one less bite of food! If you eat one more bite of meat, you will eat two less rations of food!
So I think, starting from tomorrow, everyone will choose some people from their own teams. When others are busy setting up camp, they will form a small team to find some wild food!
It's spring now, there are a lot of things to eat, and the taste is not bad. The key is to take this opportunity to improve your food and condition your body, so that you can make more achievements when you go to the battlefield in the future! "
Xiao Han moved with emotion and Xiao Zhi began to paint an exciting picture of military and civilian mass production for the captains in front of him.
There is no other way. If you are not in your position, you will not be able to do what you want! He couldn't directly instruct those Qiu Ba. Only through these people in front of him could he get enough manpower while complying with the rules.
But now, after listening to Xiao Han's words and thinking about it in their hearts, the dozen or so captains all felt that this was not a difficult matter.
In their previous attacks, they couldn't keep up with the food and grass, and they had no place to "borrow food"...
It’s not like I’ve never done it before by digging wild vegetables to eat. Now, except that there are a little more people, it doesn’t seem to be a big deal!
Seeing several of his accomplices nodding around him, Tieniu, who had an extra savvy, mustered up the courage to finally ask: "Master Marquis, I just want to ask, does the General Lord Qin know about this matter?"
"he?"
Xiao Han was stunned when he heard this, then thought back to the little plums that he had eaten with gusto in the past two days, so he nodded firmly! This guy clearly knew that he would be short of food, and yet he ate so peacefully. There was no reason why he couldn't find more food to fill the gap!
"Then do it! If you don't contribute to your own food, you deserve to be hungry!"
Seeing Xiao Han nodding, Tieniu finally hit his palm hard, finally settling the matter!
Why don't you just show up with a few people and let everyone take turns? Find some wild vegetables to eat, it won't kill you, why is this much easier than killing people, right?
Xiao Han glanced at a few people and saw that they all nodded in agreement. He immediately clapped his hands with a smile and said: "Okay, then this matter is settled for now! In fact, it will only last for seven or eight days. Wait until we meet up with other armies. , naturally there is no need to worry about going hungry!”
"Hahaha... I hope that by then, we will be eating the same food we are eating now!"
Seeing that the matter was settled, the fat captain immediately followed up cheerfully, but he soon received a lot of eye rolls.
"Eat, eat, eat, you know how to eat, you are almost fat enough to kill meat, but you still don't forget to eat!" someone scolded in a low voice.
"Who? Who said that! Come forward if you have the guts, the fat man can't kill him!" The fat captain was so angry that one Buddha ascended to the sky, and two Buddhas were born. If it weren't for the fat man dragging him, he would have jumped into the sky now!
"Who? Who spoke? Didn't you hear?"
"That's right, that's right! Did anyone speak just now?"
Seeing this group of laughing captains, Xiao Han also relaxed his heart. He laughed a few words and then sent them off. However, when he passed by Chai Shao's camp, his back straightened a little unconsciously.
The night passed in a hurry.
The next day, under Xiao Han's "strong persuasion", the army resumed its standard marching speed of fifty miles a day.
As a result, by the time the fifty-mile journey is completed, it will be more than half an hour earlier than yesterday.
Site selection, garrisoning, and military units repeated yesterday's process.
Of course, what is different from yesterday is that in every mansion today, there are hundreds of men walking out of the military camp. They are about to go to the mountains and rivers to fight for the belly of their brothers!
The time of April and May is the time of spring.
On the low mountain near the military camp, there are countless locust flowers in full bloom. From a distance, the sea of white flowers is like stars, which is really beautiful. When the wind blows, even the air in the camp is filled with locust trees. The unique sweet fragrance of flowers!
However, the beautiful locust flowers on this mountain are very pitiful. Because they are close to the military camp, they are destined not to survive tomorrow morning...
A group of men who came out of the army rushed to the mountain like wild boars, and looked at Kazuki's acacia face and smiled.
Others would use a small hook to hook the locust trees bit by bit, but these men directly drew out their horizontal knives and chopped off the locust trees as thick as a bowl in just a few strokes! Immediately afterwards, someone mobilized the war horses and ran back to the military camp dragging the chopped tree!
The locust tree is a good thing! The trunks can be used as camp railings, the branches can be used to make fires, and the most amazing thing is the locust tree flowers!
Just scald it with boiling water, sear it in a big pot, and what comes out is fragrant sophora flower cake. The deliciousness in it will make people drool just thinking about it!
Of course, when hundreds of soldiers go up the mountain, they can't just chop down locust trees.
The bitter herbs, white mugwort, wild chrysanthemums, and dandelions on the mountains are in season! These are really nutritious and good things. If they were left in future generations, they wouldn’t be able to eat them even if they wanted to!
Moreover, as the old saying goes, if you hug the grass and hunt the rabbits, you won’t waste time!
When getting all kinds of wild vegetables, some blind game is naturally the target of the soldiers.
The natural environment of Datang today is really great!
Rabbits, pheasants, pine trees, and even snakes as thick as an arm are nothing rare! In this way, if any soldier comes down the mountain without some game meat, he will be laughed at!
As the initiator of the mass production movement, Xiao Han was not on the mountain at this time.
He was currently gathered around the Wei River with Man No. 100, watching Sun Ergou holding a long rope in his teeth and swimming hard towards the other side of the river.
The Weihe River is big, but not deep, and the turbid water flows very gently here! Otherwise, Yang Guang would not have reopened an artificial canal to connect Chang'an and Tongguan instead. It was not suitable for sailing in the first place!
"Okay! Finally here!" After swimming hard to the other side of the river, Sun Ergou climbed to the shore on his hands and feet, wiped the river water from his face, and found the strongest willow tree to tie the rope he brought. !
After all this was done, he sat down on the ground and breathed heavily.
The river water was still a bit cold in late spring and early summer. Even if he had good water quality, swimming here would have consumed a lot of energy. If he hadn't eaten so much these past two days and was in good health, he probably wouldn't have been able to swim here today.
