    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 782

    "It's time for dinner, it's time for dinner!"

    At noon, several veteran soldiers who were in charge of cooking carried baskets and barrels to the city of Lingchuan Prefecture, and loudly yelled at the soldiers standing everywhere to eat.

    The soldiers of the Qinghe Army, who were sweating profusely under the scorching sun, were already grumbling in their stomachs, and they flocked to the baskets containing meals from all directions.

    "Damn, why is this multigrain cake again?"

    Seeing the black multigrain cakes in the baskets, the sallow and emaciated soldiers of the Qinghe Army showed disappointment on their faces.

    "It's good to eat something, it's better than starving."

    An old soldier shouted loudly while yelling at the soldiers for queuing up.

    "Each person has a multigrain cake and a bowl of clear porridge. No one should take too much!"

    Although these soldiers were quite dissatisfied, they still lined up obediently to receive multigrain cakes and a bowl of porridge with their chests on their backs.

    "What kind of world is this mother, look at the third regiment who eats delicious food and drinks spicy food every day, our clear porridge can reflect people."

    After receiving their lunch, several soldiers of the Qinghe Army sat down against the battlements. Seeing the clear porridge, they were quite upset.

    "Who says no? Look at what other people eat, and then look at what we eat. People are more angry than others."

    Someone raised his head and poured a bowl of porridge down his throat, wiped his mouth, and complained.

    "The Third Corps has a backing, and a steady stream of wine and meat is transported from the Jiangnan province. We dare not compare."

    "Then General Chen is really powerful. He led eight thousand brothers to attack the capital, but he escaped from death and took down two provinces."

    "If our general is half as powerful as General Chen, we won't be hungry."

    "Shh, keep your voice down so that the officials can hear you, and be careful not to get hit by a military stick."

    "I'm afraid, I'm going to join the Third Corps when the time comes, maybe I can get a blessing in disguise and have enough food every day."

    "You're right, or we might as well join the Third Corps, why bother to suffer here." Someone looked around and whispered.

    "What are you guys talking about?!"

    Seeing these soldiers with rice bowls talking furtively, an officer walked over with a dark face and scolded.

    "Master Banner Commander, nothing, nothing."

    After the soldiers looked at each other, they kept silent and started eating on their own.

    After the banner battalion commander glared at the soldiers, he quickly strode towards the tower not far away.

    At this moment, there is an Eight Immortals table in the city tower, and an old soldier is putting several exquisite dishes on the table from the food box.

    Although the soldiers of the First Corps of the Qinghe Army ate bran and swallowed vegetables, they officers had their own small stoves.

    The banner battalion commander stepped into the tower and frowned when he saw the dishes on the table.

    "I said Old Wangtou, why is it just a meat dish?" The banner battalion commander asked the old soldier carrying a food box.

    "Master Banner Commander, all the chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep in this city have been eaten up. I spent a morning fishing in the river a few miles away." The old army couldn't help but sighed.  .

    "All right, all right, let's go."

    The flag battalion commander of the First Legion also knew that there was not enough food, so he didn't embarrass the veteran, and waved him to go.

    Soon, the deputy banner battalion commander and several thousand generals also went to the tower to eat one after another, and they were quite dissatisfied when they saw the only meat dish.

    "Master Banner Battalion, it's not an option to go on like this. Brothers are full of complaints now." A thousand-man general said while gnawing on a hard pancake.

    After they moved to Yunshan Province, they hardly lived a happy life.

    First, he was blocked in the mountains by Yang Hao's troops and almost starved to death.

    Although it has rushed out of the mountains and occupied some places, it is still poor.

    If all the legions can't get enough to eat, then it's nothing, after all, everyone is similar, and no one is better than that.

    But now Zhang Bao's Third Corps is eating big fish and meat, and wearing brand-new military uniforms, holding brand-new weapons, don't mention how proud they are.

    But they are eating bran and swallowing vegetables here every day. With such a comparison, there is a gap in their hearts. This psychology is naturally unbalanced, so there are many complaints.?.

    "I'll go to the Legion Commander and ask if I can go to the Third Corps for some food."

    The commander of the banner battalion also knew the private complaints of the soldiers. If this continues, people's hearts will be scattered. He promised to report the situation to Chen Xiaoyu while planing his meal.

    After the banner battalion commander finished his meal and handed over the task of guarding to the deputy banner battalion commander, he went to the city to find the regiment commander Chen Xiaoyu.

    Chen Xiaoyu naturally knew what had happened recently. Hearing the complaints from the soldiers, she also knew that the matter had reached the point where it could not be resolved.

    Chen Xiaoyu went to Chen Ru full of concerns, hoping to negotiate a proper solution.

    When Chen Xiaoyu arrived at the Marshal's Mansion, he saw that Meng Jianbo, the commander of the Third Army, and Liu Yidao, the commander of the Fourth Army, had already arrived first.

    "Uncle Meng, General Liu, what do you want from my father?"

    Seeing the two army commanders coming hand in hand, Chen Xiaoyu was also full of doubts and couldn't help asking.

    "Miss, brothers are almost out of food." Liu Yidao sighed.

    Meng Jianbo also nodded: "Miss, now Li Qiye and the others eat hot food and drink hot food, and the brothers are greedy. Can you persuade the commander-in-chief to issue a military order to General Chen, and also give us some food and drink by the way."

    After Chen Xiaoyu heard Meng Jianbo's words, she couldn't help but shook her head, feeling that the matter was a bit hanging.

    Now although her father is a commander in chief, whether she can command Chen Ziang is another matter.

    Furthermore, why should I distribute the things that others have worked so hard to get to you?

    Chen Ru was supposed to take a lunch break after lunch, but when he heard that the three army commanders had something to do with him, he also went from the backyard to the front hall.

    After recuperating for a period of time, Chen Ru, the commander-in-chief, looks much better, and his rosy face looks quite energetic.

    When Chen Xiaoyu and the others reported their plight to Chen Ru, Chen Ru did not expect the situation to become so bad.

    "In this case, then I will leave this old face and go to the Third Corps."

    Chen Ru knew that he had no way to get food for the army, so he could only put down his dignity and go to the Third Corps to ask for it, because people might not pay attention to military orders.

    Although it is a bit embarrassing, for Chen Ru, there is no way to do it now.

    Because if he, a handsome man, didn't speak, he would deliberately not give it at all, turning a blind eye to their plight.

    If it goes on like this, I'm afraid the army's morale will be lost, and soldiers from the other legions will all go to the Third Corps one after another.

    After packing up and dressing up, surrounded by the guards, Chen Ru left the capital of Lingchuan Prefecture and headed straight for the camp of the Third Corps of the Second Corps of the Qinghe Army, ready to try it out.

    Because there is a steady stream of weapons and equipment and other materials transported to Yunshan Province, with material guarantees, the Third Corps is now also recruiting aggressively to develop its strength.

    Chen Ru, the commander-in-chief, could hear the shouts of Sha Zhentian in the barracks of the Third Corps from a distance. It was the two newly recruited banner battalions conducting daily training.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
