Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 276 Arriving at Wuyuan 1
Zhang Yan just finished drinking a bowl of broth, he immediately stretched out the bowl and said with a smile: "Brother, this broth is really good, how about another bowl?"

The Huotou army soldier in charge of serving the soup replied with a smile: "General, I'm really sorry, if you want to drink in normal times, we have to prepare more for you, but today the order was issued, in order to speed up the march, Each person can only eat [-]% full, and if they drink too much soup, they will be able to hold on.

I'm really sorry, General, look, if I ask you to get some meat for you, the soup will still be unavoidable. "

"Haha, it turns out that's the case, the lord is quite thoughtful." Zhang Yan replied with a smile: "Thanks, brother, we still have to hurry, so I will write down the meat first. Brothers, drink well No, we have to keep running, we want to be the first to reach the camp."

"Oh, gone, gone,,,,,,"

The soldiers who had eaten the soup all fought and continued on the road.The soldiers who just arrived at the back lined up to get a bowl of soup. No one would be the first, and no one jumped in line. Anyway, the Huotou army will not lose them, so no one needs to worry.

At this moment, Gongsun Xu had just had lunch, and his treatment was not much better, but the soldiers prepared a bowl of mutton soup for him, and Gongsun Xu didn't pay much attention, so he just swallowed two big cakes.

Although we are marching in a hurry, it is not yet the time to consume the compressed military rations in the army. It is good to have big cakes to eat. Gongsun Xu doesn't do anything special. He just got off his horse and gnawed on the side of the road. The soldiers passing by saw it Stop moving.

The soldiers passed it on to ten, ten to a hundred, and now they all know that the treatment of the coach Gongsun Xu is similar to them, and the general Zhang Yan is running at the forefront of Zhang Yan's army at the moment. With such a coach and general who lead by example, the last bit of complaints in the soldiers All gone.

After relaxing and walking slowly for an hour, the marching speed of the entire team gradually increased. Those who ran a little slower would be supported by the soldiers around them. If anyone was injured, they would be taken out of the team for treatment.

All the soldiers continued to move forward with high morale, just to reach today's camp as soon as possible. However, today's camp may not have taken shape yet.

Originally, Gongsun Xu expected to march a maximum of one hundred miles a day, but judging by the speed this morning, he might have to run more than one hundred and thirty or forty miles in one day. Ten miles away, Huang Xu led 5000 people to explore the terrain, so there is no need to worry about it when camping.

In the afternoon, the army had already traveled 120 miles, which already exceeded the original planned distance for today. However, it should be two hours before it gets dark, and twenty miles away, the soldiers of the Xuanfeng Army are camping Wait until the infantry rushes over.

Zhang Yan, who was at the front of the line, was still running happily, and after a while, a messenger ran against the line and shouted: "The camp has been set up twenty miles ahead, brothers, speed up. "

With only the last bit of sprint left, Zhang Yan yelled at the soldiers at this moment: "Brothers, we are the first to enter the camp to take a shower and eat meat. Hurry up."

After speaking, the hundreds of people in the front army that Zhang Yan was in immediately speeded up, and quickly distanced themselves from the team behind.

On the other hand, most of the soldiers behind were exhausted, but they were still able to hold on. They were far from collapsed. They watched Zhang Yan and the hundreds of people running farther and farther. He shouted: "Brothers, we can't be left behind, we can get tonight's Gazelle first when we reach the camp, hurry up, brothers,,,,,,"

Encouraged by the lieutenants, the soldiers at the back also speeded up. Although there was no excitement in the morning, the enthusiasm of the soldiers has not diminished by half. No matter what, the task has been overfulfilled today, and the soldiers are all overjoyed. tight.

After more than an hour, most of the infantry had arrived at the camp. The camp with nearly 10,000+ troops was not small. The distance between the front and back was more than ten miles, and the distance between the left and right was also more than ten miles. However, in such a large camp, the soldiers were all cheering Laughing and playing around.

Today, almost all the infantrymen overfulfilled their urgent marching tasks, and the sergeants of each group received today's rewards, which were the same as yesterday's treatment, and every ten people were divided into one sheep or one wolf.

Now, the joy of the sergeants was even more indescribable. Originally, the soldiers who arrived at the end thought that they were going to eat big cakes today, but when their chief said to take them to receive today's rewards, these soldiers all Everyone laughed from ear to ear.

In contrast, the frontier army was still relatively quiet. The cavalry of the frontier army arrived at the camp two hours earlier than the infantry. After the camp was settled, the frontier army dispatched 1 people to go hunting nearby. Along the way, the officers and soldiers of the selection front army did not forget to get some prey while being vigilant, so that they could have a tooth-fighting sacrifice at night.

While the infantrymen were busy with their daily lives and food, the generals of the frontline army also led their horses and came back with prey such as gazelle or wild deer.

Although the infantry were very envious of the prey that these frontier troops hunted, they were purely envious. They knew very well in their hearts that the strength, combat effectiveness and military quality of the frontier troops were beyond their reach. If I can do what they do on my side, do I still need to march on two legs like I am now?

In one part of the camp, a soldier who was lighting a fire said to several other people: "Ergou, hurry up and fetch water, we will cook wolf soup later, how did Brother Li make the haggis soup last night?" , Don’t be greedy, let’s make it ourselves today.”

Another two soldiers were cleaning the pot. This man looked at Shi Chang who was sitting and resting next to him and said with a smile: "Head Li, why are you so lazy, help me quickly, I wonder if Brother Li will come today, if It would be nice for him to come back and tell us about his military experience."

"You little bastard, I don't even know about your little things." Li Tou laughed and scolded: "You want your big brother Li to give you some pointers, it's a good idea, who is he, who are you, If you want to stand out, you have to work hard at ordinary times.

However, after all the commotion yesterday, I only found out that Brother Li Bing is from the same village as us. No wonder they look familiar. Alas, all the young and strong men in our village joined the Yellow Turban Army. Some died and some ran away. Only Li Bing Brothers are the best. They are captains in the frontline selection army. They must have at least 100 people under their command. This is really the pride of our village. "

"Who says no." The soldier just said with a smile: "I heard that Brother Li Bing is very capable when I was at home, but I didn't recognize him when I saw him yesterday. The two scars on his face were ruined. His appearance, alas."

Li Tou stepped forward and said, "This shows that your elder brother Li Bing is a real captain. Just those two scars make him look more heroic. Alas, this kid must have suffered a lot. I don’t know how much is left from a village that came out of it back then.”

At this time, more than ten steps away from the bonfire, a cavalryman stopped on a tall horse and shouted: "Brother Li, I'm here to bother you again today to form a partnership, but I brought some good things today, brothers, don't blame brother!" I'm bothering you."

When everyone looked up, they realized that it was Li Bing who had barbecued with him yesterday. Li Tou immediately scolded the two young people beside him, "What are you waiting for? Go and help Brother Li lead the horse."

Li Bing had already dismounted from his horse, and there was a deer on his back. It seemed that he had gained a lot today.

Li Tou personally went up to take the deer and said with a smile: "Brother, today's harvest is good."

"It's okay. After killing two deer and three sheep, I left one deer to join my brothers, and handed in the rest." Li Bing patted the dust on his body and smiled: "While I'm still free today, I’m here to give the brothers a change.”

When Li Bing approached and took a look, he realized that today his fellow villager was assigned a wolf. Li Tou smiled and replied embarrassedly: "We didn't perform very well today. We thought that there was no meat to eat, but the general gave me a favor." , reward us with a wolf, we brothers have never eaten wolf meat, ha ha."

After hearing this, Li Bing also said hehe: "Although wolf meat is not easy to chew, it is better than no meat. It just so happened that what I brought today was a deer. The venison meat is very tender. I will serve meat to my brothers. Come on, brother!" One, give me a hand and peel this deer."

Everyone happily gathered around and worked on the deer. The deerskin and antlers were rare items, and everyone handled them carefully.

Not long after, the bonfire was in full swing, the venison and wolf meat were all roasted, and everyone started chewing and eating. Not long after, Li Bing took off a water bag from his waist and said: "I brought good things today, brothers alone Give it a try."

After finishing speaking, Li Bing handed it to Li Tou first. Li Tou lifted the lid, and immediately a scent of wine wafted out. Although everyone was rough, the good wine could still be smelled. Pass it to others and say: "It's really good wine, brother, where did you get it?"

"I hunted a lot of prey today. After I handed it in, my school captain rewarded me with two bags of good wine. These are fine wines from northern Xinjiang, and they are hard to buy." Li Bing replied with a smile.

When everyone heard that it was such a good wine, they immediately tasted it carefully.

After eating and drinking, Li Tou and Li Bing chatted about the daily life. When they talked about their hometown, everyone sighed. In the Yellow Turban Uprising, the hometown has long since disappeared. There were not many people in Lijia Village back then, and it experienced military disasters. After that, there are not many left, and most of the young and middle-aged people are probably here.

The Yellow Turban Rebellion back then brought disaster to most people in the world, and Lijia Village was located in Julu, which was Zhang Jiao's headquarters, and it was ruined even more.

Moreover, many young men from Julu trusted Zhang Jiao back then, thinking that they could make a name for themselves with him, so they all abandoned their family business and rebelled with him.However, in the end, the rebellion failed, and instead resulted in death.Li Bing and others were captured by Gongsun Xu along with Zhou Cang and the others, and then brought to Liaodong.

Then, some Yellow Turban soldiers were organized into soldiers to fight against the Xianbei people. It was in this battle that Li Bing stood out, and was later favored by a general of the Xuanfeng Army, and was selected into the Xuanfeng Army.
