Daming: I asked you to hang yourself, but I didn’t ask you to rebuild the Ming Dynasty

A man with two scars on his face said:

"A little gossip and dozens of questions.

Although their answers were different, the general meaning was the same.

From this point of view, this food must be real! "

Li Dingguo had already guessed Xu Qiyuan's operation, and seeing this personal soldier confirmed it again.

Immediately asked:

"When will the grain and grass arrive in Zhangjiapo?"

"Second Young Master, that guy said it would be at noon today!"

"it is good!"

Li Dingguo immediately said:

"Send a message to Dou Mingwang and ask him to send troops out of the camp immediately to attack Mian County.

Mobilize the attention of the Ming army and make sure to attract them to Beiying! "

The messenger immediately went to deliver the message.

Li Dingguo said to Feng Shuangli:

“Prepare [-] elites, make rice, and feed them!

Wait until noon and immediately follow me to grab the food! "

Feng Shuangli frowned:

"Second Master, the general thinks, should we be careful?

Second Master, you are the commander-in-chief of the army and you must not make any mistakes. Why don't you let me lead the army in this battle? "

"No!"

Li Dingguo shook his head:

"Brother Feng, our food and grass can only last for five or six days, so we made another dry meal at noon today.

The remaining food would probably be difficult to sustain even for three days.

This is a battle of our life and death!

This time, I had to go in person to feel at ease. "

Feng Shuangli gritted his teeth, Li Dingguo was telling the truth.

The supply of food and grass is about to bottom out... They can no longer hold on!

"it is good!"

Feng Shuangli said immediately:

"Then I will let Lao Ma defend the camp, and I will personally protect the second master's left and right."

"Ah."

Li Dingguo did not refute Feng Shuangli's proposal.

The stakes in this battle are too great to allow for any mistakes!

Feng Shuangli is a good general, and he is indeed a good helper by his side!

Moreover, as long as the grain and grass are obtained, the Ming army's deployment can be disrupted.

Take advantage of the time when they readjust their defenses to break out!

Feng Shuangli has always been careful, and having him by his side makes him even more powerful!

……

Mian County.

Xu Qiyuan supervised it personally. He watched with his own eyes as the soldiers brought out ten thousand stones of grain and grass from the granary.

He also watched with his own eyes as [-] stones of grain and grass were loaded onto hundreds of carts by civilians and transported out of the city towards Zhangjiagou.

Xu Qiyuan knew how important this time was, so he not only personally supervised the loading of grain and grass...

He even went with him personally.

He can't afford to lose!

In order to ensure that there would be no leakage of food and grass, a large army was dispatched to escort them.

Accompanying him was Chen Wanjia, a fellow governor of Yunyang, who was Xu Qiyuan's deputy.

The person escorting the grain and grass was guerrilla general Liu Tiaoyuan.

Mian County is not far from Zhangjiagou, but it passes through the Yangshui River, which is the upstream tributary of the Han River.

Therefore, it needs to be transferred by ship once, which is a little troublesome.

The days in early summer have gradually become hotter.

After leaving the city, I couldn't stand staring at Xu Qiyuan all the way.

He immediately asked Chen Wanjia to supervise personally and got into the carriage.

And Chen Wanjia...

He is a civil servant!

As a "master" who has studied hard for more than ten years in Hanchuang and finally stood out, how can he be like a soldier, suffering under the sun?

Therefore, he handed over the important task of watching to Liu Tiaoyuan.

When the convoy reaches the Yangshui River, it has to take a boat to reach the other side.

Although the Yangshui is not wide.

However, because it is located in the mountains, the river water can surge dozens of times every summer.

Therefore, although the river surface in early summer is only a dozen feet at this time, the width of the valley is several miles!

Because the river surface is very different between dry season and flood season...

Although Xu Qiyuan made up his mind to send food to Li Dingguo.

However, he did not dare to do so blatantly.

Therefore, the actions that should be taken during normal operation must still be operated in accordance with the normal process.

The road he chose to transport grain did not have a bridge.

The Yangshui River isolates the north from the south. In order to stay hidden and cannot pass through bridges, the army can only use ferries if they want to cross the river.

Fortunately, Xu Qiyuan had already issued an order to mobilize ships.

Therefore, the ships gathering on the north bank of the river at this time are enough.

The peasants carried the bags of grain and grass to the boat and pushed the cart on board.

It's summer, and the shirtless civilian husband is sweating profusely.

As for the soldiers wearing armor, they were even hotter and sweating profusely.

Although Xu Qiyuan and others were not wearing armor, they were only wearing official uniforms, but they were also uncomfortable with the heat.

"Old Chen, we must keep a close eye on him!"

Xu Qiyuan wiped the sweat from his face and warned him again and again.

"Don't worry, Lord, just leave this place to the humble position.

It's too hot. You'd better go to the cabin and rest for a while! "

Mian County was already behind them, and the army cleared the road earlier.

There were no other people waiting along the way.

Xu Qiyuan knew that the transportation of grain and grass to Zhangjiagou was a certainty.

Plus the weather is really too hot.

Xu Qiyuan did not insist anymore.

Immediately, he handed over the supervision work to Chen Wanjia and sat in the cabin himself.

Chen Wanjia kept wiping the Han water on his face.

Even, regardless of the official's decency, he held the official robe in one hand and started to fan.

Unfortunately, the river embankment was mostly filled with sand and gravel, and the temperature was frighteningly high.

Even though he didn't do anything, and there were even a few soldiers fanning him, he still felt uncomfortable with the heat.

Liu Tiaoyuan walked up:

"Master Chen, this damn weather is really too hot!"

Chen Wanjia wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead:

"Who said no!

This weather is like a fire. "

"Master Chen, this is the sour plum soup that I bought for you. Please relieve yourself from the heat."

With a flattering face on his face, Liu Tiaoyuan opened the food box he was carrying, took out a bowl of cold drink and handed it to Chen Wanjia.

Chen Wanjia glanced at Liu Tiaoyuan and said with a smile:

"You boy, you are quite thoughtful!"

Liu Tiaoyuan smiled naively.

Chen Wanjia was not polite and immediately drank the cold drink in one sip.

Enjoy the cool, sweet and sour plum soup.

A feeling of coldness rose from the abdominal cavity and slowly dispersed towards the internal organs, which were like a furnace.

So comfortable!

"The sun is scorching in the sky, and being able to take a cup of sour plum soup is truly a blessing in life!"

Chen Wanjia handed the empty bowl to Liu Tiaoyuan and praised him.

Liu Tiaoyuan laughed along:

"The weather is too hot, and the Lord ordered the roads to be cleared. In addition, the battlefield is not far away. The vendors who used to be everywhere on the ferry have been driven away long ago."

"The little one also took a lot of effort to get it from the other side."

"Oh?"

Chen Wanjia said curiously:

"Did you buy this from the other side of the river?"

Liu Tiaoyuan nodded:

"So that Mr. Chen can know that there is a food stall on the other side.

When Mo Jiang went to clear the road on the opposite side just now, he bought it specially for Mr. Chen to relieve the heat. "

"You boy!"

Chen Wanjia chuckled and glanced at Liu Tiaoyuan approvingly:

"You are a thoughtful person, I will remember you."
