The devil is coming

Chapter 531
Gou Moli was holding a large bowl of porridge in his hand. This large bowl could be used as a basin.
In fact, although Gou Moli has a slim figure, he has always had a big appetite. To use a blind man's term, no matter whether he was detained in the Snow Customs before or is now released to work, by meal time, this guy can always kill two people by himself. Personally, it’s almost enough food for three people.
Because he can always adjust his mental and physical state to the best before each meal. Since he wants to live well, he must eat well.
There is a large circle of pickled ginger placed on the edge of the porridge bowl. It is crunchy and has a salty taste. It can be said to be a great tool for serving porridge.
At the feet, there are four salted duck eggs.
He drank the porridge with gusto alone, while beside him, a group of savage soldiers wearing rattan armor munched on the dry rice, which was also served with bacon strips.
During wartime, the food standard for soldiers will be improved, and they must have both dry food and meat, otherwise it will be difficult to ensure their strength.
Furthermore, now that Dongshan Fort has been captured, the Chu people who have learned the lessons of the Qingluan Army in Yupan City last time can be said to have abundant food reserves in Dongshan Fort. In addition, Dayan's logistics are still providing it steadily, so now There is really no shortage of food on Xue Haijun's side.
In the battle against the city, the barbarian soldiers suffered heavy casualties. The subsequent Chu counterattack and the subsequent series of fighting resulted in even more casualties, but some people still survived.
The Savage King fulfilled his promise and went to the quartermaster in person to apply for meals for the hundreds of people under his command.
These few hundred people will be the backbone of his first town in the future. Well, it is actually enough. After all, what Uncle Zheng set for him at the beginning was actually two battalions of three thousand soldiers and horses.
In a few days, I will go to the savage slave camp and select some young men to come in. The platform of this first town will be erected.
The process was bumpy and the road was bumpy, but fortunately, I was finally on the right track.
The blind man came over with two rice balls in his hand while eating, and then sat down next to the Savage King.
Gou Moli took two mouthfuls of porridge and said, "Mr. Bei, are you awake yet?"
The blind man took a bite of the rice ball, picked up a duck egg next to the Savage King, and knocked it gently.
Road:
"What, have an idea?"
"How can it be possible? Even if my uncle is gone, you will still be there, right?"
"Hey, why do I think you have some meaning in what you say now?"
"Isn't this how my uncle and you asked me to correct my past mistakes? I'm trying to correct them."
"Ah."
The blind man peeled off the salted duck eggs, took a bite, and said, "My lord, the problem is not big, it's just that your body is a bit overdrawn."
"It's okay." The Savage King drank two more mouthfuls of porridge and said, "This Chu people are really powerful. That wave of counterattacks almost defeated us. Fortunately, our uncle turned the tide.
By the way, Mr. Bei, are you injured? "
"The injury is not serious, as long as your brain is still clear."
"That is."
"I'm looking for you because I want to talk about the next step of planning. Regardless of the process, Dongshan Fort has been taken down." The blind man said, "How will it work next?"
Now Gou Moli is a grasshopper on the same rope as him, and the blind man will naturally not leave such a great strategist unused.
Gou Moli naturally had nothing to hide, so he said bluntly:
"The battle at Yangshan Village was the first victory; the capture of Dongshan Fort was the second victory. Moreover, Dongshan Fort and Xishan Fort were the two major gateways and supports for the Chu people's defense zone before they conquered Nanguan. In my opinion, The success of Dongshan Fort being captured in this way was much greater than that of Yangshan Stronghold, and its effect on the overall situation was also stronger.
The death of Shi Yuantang from the Zhugu Kingdom of Great Chu in this battle was the third merit; the most elite part of the Imperial Imperial Army of Chu was destroyed here, which was the fourth merit.
My uncle always likes to look at war with a business mentality. No matter how you calculate it, we have already exceeded our quota early.
If the leader of the army is not Tian Wujing, then we have to think again. After all, Zhennanguan cannot be taken. Once the situation changes drastically in the future, the situation of our Xueguan will soon be worrying.
But now that the commander-in-chief is the King of Jingnan, we can trust Tian Wujing’s fighting ability. Therefore, I think we can rest and recuperate well in the next period of time.
One is to reorganize the Gongsun Zhi and Gong Wang departments.
The old foundation of Gongsun Zhibu is the Zhenbei Army. Tsk tsk, the Zhenbei Army has the ability to fight tough battles.
Gong Wang Department, well, how should I put it, is Gong Wang. His ability to absorb people from Jin and his reputation are hard to match. Using Gong Wang as a gimmick, he can attract a large number of people from Jin to join his service. ;
As for me, the first town promised by my uncle, I can also take this opportunity to recruit 3000 people. I will polish it carefully and try to make this army more murderous, and some savage slave soldiers are here. The effect in my hands will be much stronger than in the hands of others.
In the future, when there is a war, I will fight with three thousand savage soldiers and savage slaves.
As for our Xue Customs Headquarters, we can also recruit some auxiliary troops this time. On the one hand, we can make up for the loss of soldiers, and on the other hand, we can have more reasons to ask for support from the rear.
In this battle, our losses were actually huge, but after adjusting for a period of time, the strength of this warlord mountain with Wo Xue Customs as the core will not decrease but will increase.
The most important thing is that King Jingnan wants our uncle to be in the limelight, to gain military glory, and to be popular, rather than to use a borrowed sword to kill people, and while killing people, he will blunt our sword.
Therefore, from now on, until the war at Zhennanguan really starts, we may all stay here to integrate and train new recruits, and take the opportunity to consolidate our strength. There should be no other wars.
After all, in this attack on Chu, Da Yanguang's main army dispatched hundreds of thousands of troops. It is impossible for us to fight all the battles.
I know that my uncle has always wanted a stable environment to develop quietly, and now is an opportunity.
There is one thing that you should be able to do if I don’t say it, Mr. Bei, but I have to say it, otherwise I will appear useless. "
"Say."
"Give Jingnan King's casualties and request for help information, this is the key."
The blind man nodded and took a bite of the salted duck egg.
"We have already done what we should do. Now let's see whether King Jingnan will open another back door for us."
"Ah."
"Another point."
The blind man said: "Why are there still more?"
"This, without counting, is that I think Tian Wujing may not be so consistent and honestly clean up the surrounding area before going to Mozhen Nanguan."
"Oh? What do you think about this?"
"I have no opinion, because I don't know what else to do except keep grinding. I also know the terrain of Jin and Chu. If I want to attack Chu, I can only pry open the Zhennanguan Pass. This is the only way to attack Chu. the road."
"Then what else did you say?"
"I don't have it. It doesn't necessarily mean that Tian Wujing doesn't have it. You know, I'm just Tian Wujing's defeated general."
"Ha ha."
"General Liang, are you okay?" Gou Moli asked.
"What can he do?"
"No, I mean, this time he..."
"The relationship we have with the Lord is unimaginable."
"That is, that is."
The blind man ate all the rice balls in his hands with the salted duck eggs.
He clapped his hands gently,
Road:
"Okay, you continue to eat, and I will go to other places."
"Mr. Bei, please walk slowly."
After the blind man leaves,
Gou Moli continued to drink his big bowl of porridge, but his eyes were a little wandering, because in the distance, a general was galloping away on horseback.
That's Jin Shuke.
Gou Moli suddenly felt a little stressed. Jinshu was a barbarian. Like himself, he was not from Xia.
But unlike me, Snow Customs is adjacent to the snowfield, so I have more room to play. But once the base is no longer near the snowfield in the future, will my role be comparable to that of the Golden Technique?
Everyone has a competitive spirit, and Gou Moli can see it. If nothing happens in the future, Uncle Zheng's family will become more and more generous and bigger. It is inevitable that the people of Zhu Xia will be the basic base. trend.
Therefore, strictly speaking, he and Jin Shu were eating on separate plates. Whoever ate more would have to eat less.
Suddenly,
Gou Moli felt that the porridge in his big bowl was no longer fragrant.
He looked around at his subordinates who were devouring food.
cursed in savage language;
"You're a bunch of wolves, hurry up and eat. After you're done, let me do my thing!"
"Yes."
"Yes."
The attitude of his subordinates towards him is still very respectful.
Gou Moli still felt that it was not so refreshing, so he took a sip of the porridge.
pinching one's throat;
"Hey, our relationship with the Lord is beyond what you can imagine."
.........
Jin Shuke returned to the city all the way, and all the soldiers and generals he met along the way greeted him warmly.
Everyone knows that in that battle, Jin Shuke led the cavalry to attack, and what a crucial role it played.
It can be said that the situation of that battle can be changed by metal magic alone.
Jinshu Ke was highly valued by his uncle. Brother Ke Yandong was able to become the leader of the town because of his Ke Yan tribe, while Jinshu Ke was purely due to "holy favor".
Being a "Holy Family" to begin with, and having made such a great contribution, the future of metal arts in Xuehaiguan is naturally limitless.
But Jin Shuke remained low-key, not daring to show off his body at all, and showing no intention of raising his tail to the sky. When the soldiers greeted him, he nodded, and when other generals greeted him, he also returned the greetings with great rigor.
After entering Dongshan Fort, Jin Shuke went directly to the outside of Uncle Zheng's mansion.
In fact, it is not considered a residence, because Dongshan Fort is a military castle, and there was no thought of having residential elements in it. However, this place should have been the residence of the city guard generals before, so the conditions are not bad.
Uncle Zheng was placed inside after falling asleep.
Jin Shuke got off his horse, came to the door, and asked the guards guarding there;
"Uncle, are you awake?"
The guard shook his head.
Jin Shuke heard the words and nodded, with concern in his eyes.
After a while, just as he was about to ride away, a guard galloped out. When he saw Jin Shuke standing at the door, he immediately smiled and said:
"What a coincidence, General Jin. My uncle just woke up and asked his subordinates to come find General Jin. Come and see him."
"Uncle, are you awake?" Jin Shuke was very surprised. He took off his sword and handed it to the guard aside, then walked quickly into it.
.........
Uncle Zheng just woke up.
When metal magic can come in,
Uncle Zheng was sitting cross-legged on the bed, eating.
One meat, two vegetables and one soup, not the light porridge that people who are accustomed to "recovering from long-term illness" eat.
In fact, Uncle Zheng's appetite is indeed not very good, but he knows that his body needs to supplement nutrition now, and after all, he is a sixth-grade warrior, and he has never failed to work hard on his body. Therefore, in terms of physical fitness, it is Needless to say, the biggest reason for my previous coma was because it was really difficult to survive mentally after being double depleted by the magic pill and the elixir.
So, after waking up, eating normally is still no problem.
"Have you eaten?"
Uncle Zheng raised his eyes and looked at Jin Shuke who was kneeling in front of him.
"As far as I'm concerned, I didn't eat it," Jin Shuke replied.
"Haha." Uncle Zheng smiled and ordered a guard beside him, "Add a pair of bowls and chopsticks."
Immediately, he also said about metal skills:
"Let's eat together."
"The last will not dare!"
"Let's eat together. I am deliberately showing favor to you, so you have to cooperate."
"..." Jin Shuke.
The bowls and chopsticks were brought, and Jin Shuke squatted in front of the bed.
Uncle Zheng smiled "haha" and said: "Sit down, don't be restrained."
"This………"
Jin Shuke stood up with his butt touching the edge of the bed.
"Ugh."
Uncle Zheng waved his hand and said, "That's all."
finished,
Uncle Zheng poured the rice from his bowl onto a vegetable plate, then took Jin Shuke's bowl and placed the rice on the meat plate.
This is equivalent to making two sets of rice bowls.
"Okay, you can take this and eat it."
"Uncle Xie, uncle Xie."
Jin Shuke took the plate, got out of bed, squatted aside and started eating.
Uncle Zheng also took the plate, got out of bed, sat on the floor, and ate face to face with Jin Shuke.
for a while,
Jin Shuke, who was cooking rice, raised his head and looked at Uncle Zheng sitting in front of him. He was a little excited for a moment. After choking for a while, he choked on his rice.
He immediately lowered his head and started coughing crazily.
"I don't know what you are afraid of. I am not as afraid as you of eating in front of King Jingnan."
"Uncle, in the heart of the general, he is much more stalwart than King Jingnan." Jin Shuke said.
"Okay." Uncle Zheng nodded.
Jin Shuke said again: "Moreover, how can I compare with you, uncle?"
"Yes, come again, you are a capable man. If you hadn't led the army to fight out that day, I don't know if I would be able to sit here and eat now."
"Uncle, the last general, subordinate, the last general..."
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about it for now. Let's eat first and then talk after eating."
The two began to eat together.
With Jinshu to eat with him, Uncle Zheng's appetite has also increased.
After finishing the food on their plates, Uncle Zheng picked up the soup bowl, which contained seaweed and egg drop soup. He drank [-]% of it himself before passing it to Jin Shuke.
Jin Shuke drank the rest and then burped.
Eat and drink
Uncle Zheng is still sitting on the ground,
Jinshu gradually stopped squatting and sat down instead.
"I am blessed to have you as my subordinate."
"It is a blessing for a general to die in the service of my uncle."
"I have always valued you. In fact, I noticed you very early on. Otherwise, I would not have arranged for the Sword Master to guard the city gate with you."
"Uncle..."
"As for me, what kind of temperament do I have? I guess you also know that I will treat those who are capable and able to do things well under my command, and I will not be stingy in terms of military success and future in the future.
You have the greatest credit for taking Dongshan Fort this time. I will keep it in mind. Let’s let go of the rewards first. After all, the war is not over yet. "
"Yes, uncle."
"I called you here because there is something I need you to do."
Jin Shuke immediately knelt down on one knee in front of Uncle Zheng and said:
"The last will obey!"
"Is Shi Yuantang's funeral team ready?"
"Returning to uncle, my subordinates are ready according to Mr. Bei's instructions."
"Well, I plan to let you lead the team. First, we will send the funeral team to the king's tent, so that our prince can also take a look, and then go to the various Chu army camps outside the military forts.
This is a show-off job, and it should be done by you. "
"Thank you so much, uncle!"
"Well, it's done, that's it. I'll keep my eyes open for a while, and you can go down first."
"I'm about to retire, uncle, you should also take care of yourself."
"Okay, so are you."
After the metal skills were gone, the sword master walked out from the next room and said with emotion:
"I didn't expect him to get this far."
I think at the beginning, the Sword Master just thought that Jin Shuke was interesting and could do things. In addition, after getting along with him for a while, the Sword Master accepted his affection, so he recommended it to Zheng Fan.
But Jinshu Ke's growth was so fast that even the Sword Master was unexpected.
"It's not because you have good taste and can recognize heroes." Uncle Zheng said with a smile.
"I don't have the shame to say such things. In the final analysis, you are still willing to delegate power. In this regard, you are very similar to the emperor of your Yan Kingdom."
In the eyes of outsiders, Uncle Hirano's words are all in Xueguan.
But as a neighbor, Juggernaut naturally knows how lazy this uncle is. Apart from attending some activities to show his face, he is just a hands-off shopkeeper.
Xue Guan's financial power, military power, commerce, people's livelihood, etc., were all delegated to his subordinates.
"I said, it is taboo for you to speak like this. It would be terrible if someone from the Secret Service around me hears it."
The sword master smiled and said, "Are you still afraid of this?"
"How can I not be afraid? My subordinates have suffered heavy losses after this battle. They have to seize the time to recover. And even before the war begins, with my strength, it is okay in Eastern Jin Dynasty. Looking at the rule of the imperial court, it is still okay. It’s really not that worthy of being on the stage.”
among other things,
If Emperor Yan really makes a decree and asks King Jingnan to destroy me,
Hey,
It’s really not enough for our prince to hold with one hand. "
At this time,
A voice came from outside:
"Then, do I, the king, want to crush you to death?"
"..." Uncle Zheng.
