I am Da Song

Chapter 225: Where there is money, there is a strong army!

After a night of bloody battle, the Jin army had to admit that the fighting power of the Song army's frontier army was indeed very aggressive.

From nightfall, this Song army began to attack the camp, and continued to kill until the next morning, when the darkness completely dissipated.

In fact, the sky was already able to see things clearly, but the golden army who had killed so dimly did not feel like it was dawn at all.

I only feel that each camp is full of darkness, blood rain and endless killing.

It wasn't until the loud and clear sound of the Song army's golden call came from outside the camp that the two muddle-headed armies separated in confusion.

The Song army returned to the sea like a hundred rivers, withdrew from each camp one by one and returned to the city.

In the original place, only the stumped limbs and dead bodies of each camp were left.

Back in the city, the soldiers were elated, and threw the captured flags in front of the city gate, leaving them in a mess in the filthy soil.

Countless soldiers who returned to the city proudly stepped over the golden army banner and completely trampled it into the mud.

What greeted these meritorious soldiers was sumptuous delicacies.

Wu Jie specially ordered the soldiers to be rewarded, and the back kitchen slaughtered more than 20 pigs and hundreds of chickens for them in one go.

Fatty chicken legs, greasy pork chops, piping hot broth and plenty of delicious cooking cakes are all you can eat.

Behind the fact that the Song Army was able to fight bloody night on the battlefield was the unprecedented military expenditure of the entire Song Dynasty.

The Song Army's material guarantee at Yanyun has far surpassed the logistical support at Juyan Pass when the Han Army was at its peak.

The reason why the Han army is so strong that one Han can serve as the five Hus is not only because of the advantages of weapons, but also because of the strong logistics guarantee.

The variety and quantity of meat received by each soldier at Juyanguan will be recorded in detail, and the name and time of each soldier's receipt are exactly the same.

For example, a head of sheep is 250 Wen, a chicken is 36 Wen, tripe is 4 Wen a catty, fish is 20 to 30 Wen, butter is 17 Wen a catty, and a beef tongue is 60 Wen.

But all of this no longer exists in Song Dynasty.

As long as the soldiers don't waste it, the army will be full of meat.But after receiving three or four catties of meat, he couldn't eat any more, and he was punished by doubling his training.

The court's military expenditure of 8000 million guan has ensured that this army is not an army that eats coarse grains and chews bread at all.

On the contrary, people of later generations misunderstood the nomadic army, thinking that the nomadic army ate meat boldly and drank milk, which was fully reflected in the frontier army of the Song army.

If you have money, you will have a strong army. This is an eternal truth in the world!
The only unhappy person in the cafeteria was the conductor Hu Yantong.

Even if he captured the flag for more than 20 strokes, a reprimand was still inevitable.

Wu Jie scolded him bloody.

Was that called a war last night?Street fights are better than his command art.

If Wu Jie hadn't personally arranged tactics, prepared bamboo whistles, and the Song army had strict discipline and bravery, this battle would have turned into a mess.

But scolding is scolding, Wu Jie said that after the war, he would ask the emperor to help him.

After all, by mistake, he made the Jin army miserable in this battle, and the soldiers killed and injured by each other were several times the casualties caused by the Song army.

In particular, there were fierce battles between the reinforcements of the Jin army and the battalion guards several times, which caused the Jin army to be disheartened and demoralized.

After this battle, the heavy rain continued for more than ten days.Song Jun sent greetings with swords to Jin Jun day and night.

In the early morning, Jin Jun was too tired to open his eyes, so Song Jun came to urge Jin Jun to get up.

At night, Jin Jun struggled to sleep in the damp and moldy tent, so Wu Jie sent someone to check whether Jin Jun slept soundly.The soldiers of the Jin Army who had finally fallen asleep were awakened instantly by the sound of the Song Army shouting, beating, and killing, and they all jumped up and scolded their mothers angrily.When I woke up, I couldn't sleep for at least a few hours.The damp bedding is not a place for people to sleep.

All of this, Jin Jun can barely bear.What Jin Jun couldn't bear the most was that Song Jun also came to greet him during meal time!
Jin Jun was struggling in the cold and damp camp, and the only thing he could look forward to every day was to have a mouthful of hot soup at lunch time.

But even with such a humble wish, Song Jun inhumanely wiped it out.

Once the Song army came to kill, the Jin army lined up to resist the Song army's harassment, and then went back to the hot soup, it was completely leftovers.

There are already tens of thousands of soldiers of the Golden Army who haven't had a bite of hot food for nearly half a month.Every day I ate cold moldy food, drank cold raw water, and soaked in continuous rain.

Jin Jun really couldn't figure it out, he was in such a miserable state, how could Song Jun still be alive?

Jin Jun thought that he was miserable enough, and the worst was like this, right?It's like a star.

But as everyone knows, something worse is imminent.

Wu Jie and Wu Lin stood under the city gate, looking at the Jinjun camp standing in the distance together in the wind and rain.

Wu Jie praised: "The Jin army is indeed worthy of being the founder of the country. Even if it is ravaged by wind and rain and harassed by our army day and night, it still has excellent combat power. It can fight fiercely with our soldiers in the wind and rain without losing sight of defeat."

Wu Lin agreed and said: "I've heard about Jurchen's tenacity for a long time, and I finally saw it today. It can be called a strong army in the world. But the standing camp is like a building with leaks everywhere. How long can it last in the wind and rain?"

"The Jin army can withstand hardships and fight against war, but I don't believe that the Jin army can withstand the hunger and cold nature. It has been raining for nearly half a month, how much food and grass can be left in the Jin army camp? If the food and grass are not enough, No matter how tough the Jurchen soldiers are, they can only be defeated."

Wu Jie nodded with a smile, and said, "That's true. When the Jin army retreats, that's when I'm waiting to attack!"

Wu Lin was surprised and asked, "Don't wait for Mr. Zong and them?"

"Can't wait. There won't be any reinforcements either."

Wu Lin was taken aback and asked, "What's going on? What about the 11 troops in Guiyi City?"

Wu Jie looked at the heavy rain outside the city, and said calmly: "Except for 1 people guarding the city, the remaining 30 troops were transferred to Hebei and used their lives to fill the river defense. The officials issued a death order, and no matter what the cost, It is necessary to block the breach of the Yellow River. [-] troops from Hebei, Hedong, Gyeonggi, Jingdong, Jingxi, and Shaanxi, and millions of civilians were transferred to Hebei to repair the breach of the Yellow River.”

Wu Lin asked in surprise, "Is the Yellow River flooding again?"

Wu Jie nodded lightly, and said: "The Yellow River floods every year, and the heavy rain has lasted for more than half a month. Isn't it reasonable to burst?"

Wu Lin was overjoyed, and then felt something was wrong, quickly collected his expression, lowered his excited tone, looked at Wu Jie with concern, and asked: "Then, the victory of Yanyun, isn't it all my soldiers in Yizhou City? "

"Let's talk about the big victory."

And when Wu Jie and Wu Lin were discussing the situation of the Jin army, the soldiers of the Jin army found angrily that they didn't even have leftovers!

The enraged soldiers kicked over the food. Is this something for people to eat?
There is no charcoal for the fire, and the rice is soaked in raw water without heating at all.But even if this kind of cold water boiled raw rice, the Jin army could not guarantee the supply. A large number of soldiers brought moldy raw rice. The dark moldy rice mixed with cold water tasted like eating soil.

The soldiers of the Jin army were completely out of anger, and the upper echelons would eat this kind of food by themselves, and go to fight day and night with the fierce Song army?
