The generals of the Yuan army and the leaders of the people were negotiating when Gao Basi Temul stood up and asked.
"Which of you is in charge? What is the purpose of getting all this food?"
One of the civilians walked out and replied to Gao Basi Temü'er and Hong Boyan Temü'er.
"Let this Lord of the Yuan Army know that according to the order of the Marquis, he asked us to bring food over."
"Now that the food has arrived, I would like to ask Mr. Yuanjun to check it. I'd like to go back and deliver it."
The enthusiasm is too much, you really have such good intentions!
"I said I don't want it, I don't want it. I said it clearly during the day, take it away. If you don't take it away, don't blame me for being rude and going on a killing spree here."
It's not all a threat. If the Ming army hadn't been following them, and there was a large army inside Yanmen, these civilians might not have been able to escape unscathed.
"The Marquis said, it's your business whether you accept it or not, and it's the Marquis's business whether you send it or not."
"Everyone has come from afar, and you are a guest. It is the Marquis's wish to bring you some food, and it is also the Marquis's way of hospitality."
"The things have been delivered. I'm afraid that they have cooled down. There will be another batch later. How to deal with it depends on your mood. Please accept the things. I will say goodbye later."
After all, he had been educated in the land of China, so the Yuan army no longer refused the food sent by Zheng Xiong, and watched as the civilians left leaving food all over the floor.
This time Gao Basi Temul was stumped.
Eat it, you are slapped in the face by what you said, besides, you don’t know what the Ming army is selling.
Just don't eat, it's usually fine, but now that the food is in front of you, most people really can't stand this test. They don't see that the soldiers under them are already staring at the food with green eyes.
Gao Basi Temur could only talk to Hong Boyan Temur, asking for advice in a low voice.
"The Ming Army was so kind in sending food. He had no worries about tomorrow's competition and even delivered the food to us. Why do I always feel a little uneasy about this? What do you think?"
No matter how you look at it, you are looking at it after eating it, but you are not making a fuss out of it.
"Let me ask you, who is he?"
"Champion Hou, what's wrong?"
"Isn't this the end? Which champion is not brave enough to conquer the world and be famous in history."
"Sending food here is a sign of confidence, and it doesn't take us seriously at all."
"On the other hand, by letting us eat and drink enough and defeat us in an upright manner, he can show his champion's magnanimity and ability."
"According to what you say, we don't have to worry about any fraud at all."
"Yes, he should eat and drink when he should, eat and drink well, and have an upright fight with the champion, maybe that's what he wants to see!"
After sighing, Gao Hong Boyan Timur walked to the roasted lamb leg aside, tore off a piece of the thigh and started to chew on it.
Don't tell me, it's delicious, Hong Boyan Timur said loudly while squeezing his thighs.
"Not bad."
Hong Boyan Temu'er's praise made Gao Ba Si Temu'er unable to sit still, but thinking of what he had said, he finally endured his hunger and returned to his tent.
After Gao Basi Tem'er left, Hong Boyan Tem'er directly greeted everyone to have a good meal.
When I went back and thought about it, something still felt wrong. I secretly looked at the Ming army camp. There was no fragrance flowing out from there, and no one brought food.
Gao Basi Temu'er was not prepared to say anything inappropriate at this time, so he just said hello to the people below, half of them would eat first, and the other half would have to guard the camp first and then wait.
After saying that, the Ming army watched helplessly as civilians and baskets of food were put down in Yanmen, and they carried them on their shoulders to the Yuan army camp.
After the husband left, the voices of praise came out one after another, and he was completely unable to hold back.
Why, the Yuan army is competing with you, and you have given us such warm hospitality. We are stepmothers, so we are no longer brothers.
Is this behavior a proper act of worshiping foreigners and a traitor? Can I still be called a human being?
The more I thought about it, the angrier I became. Although my original intention was not pure, you were going too far before I could do anything.
The general leading the troops immediately led his guards to intercept the civilians who were rushing back, and asked loudly.
"What's going on with you? We're still hungry when you don't see us. Instead of sending us food, you send food to the Yuan army. What are your intentions?"
Angry in his heart, he was still angry after questioning. He directly grabbed the clothes of the civilian husband and forcibly lifted the civilian husband up.
The leader of the civilian husband feels aggrieved. I am just a porter. Why are you angry at me? Shouldn't I ask the champion directly?
"I don't know, but I am also following orders. If the general wants to know the details, please ask the Marquis."
"Why, use the champion to pressure me. Let me tell you, I'm not afraid. You go back and tell the champion that I will wait for his answer. If the answer is not satisfactory, I will make him a crime of scheming the enemy another day."
"Yes, later my lord."
The general of the Ming army watched eagerly as the civilians returned to the city from the hanging basket. Smelling the aroma of meat coming from the city, he became even more hungry and uncomfortable. He waited eagerly for a reply.
The civilians did not dare to neglect, returned to the city, and quickly reported Zheng Xiong.
"Master Marquis, our brothers from the Ming army outside the Pass asked me to pass on a message. Why are you sending food to the Yuan army but not to them?"
This is not only the doubt of the Ming army outside the pass, but also the doubt of the people. If they eat and drink enough and kill their own people, the consequences will be very serious just thinking about it.
"This is not something you are still thinking about. Go back and tell them that these foods were not prepared for them in the first place. Their arrival was completely unexpected."
"I will ask Tie Tiao later and get some food from him. Although it is not as good as the Yuan army's food, there is no problem in keeping them full."
"Yes, Lord Marquis, I will go back and tell them now."
"Well, go ahead!"
The civilian husband left, Zheng Xiong couldn't help but rub his head, you said you had to come over to join in the fun, this is for you to eat, why are you envious of others.
After all, he was still one of his own, so Zheng Xiong went to the government office where he was being promoted and told Zhang Huaiyuan about the matter.
"Tian Tiao, can you bring us some more food? There are still our Ming army brothers outside the pass. We can't let them starve."
It is not easy to know one's own brothers, but the difference is that the food given to the Yuan army is very good, but the food given to one's own people is not at the same level, which is a bit puzzling.
After being puzzled for a long time, Zhang Huaiyuan finally asked his doubts.
"Master Marquis, what's the meaning of being so kind to one and not to the other?"
"Don't say it, just improve the tone and wait and see how it changes."
Well, let’s see you perform.
Zhang Huaiyuan was very helpful. The entire Yanmen's supply of wounded soldiers and the deployment of Yanmen were organized in an orderly manner. When facing Zheng Xiong's needs, he quickly prepared food and sent it to Zheng Xiong for processing again.
