That night, several good generals from the Yangzhou Army gathered together and had a meal of boiled mutton.
During this period, Dian Wei laughed and said that he was tired of eating mutton, which caused everyone to laugh.
I have to say that it is a very rare thing to eat meat every meal, and even mutton, which is very expensive in Yangzhou.
Who would have thought that these Yangzhou army officers and soldiers who were on an expedition would have better food than the wealthy people in Yangzhou.
But there is nothing that can be done about it. After all, some time ago, the Yangzhou Army seized nearly three million cattle and sheep from the tribes such as Budugen and Kebineng.
Such a huge number is simply unheard of.
In order to transport this batch of cattle and sheep to Jizhou, Liu Ke arranged several transportation lines. Now he is busy and the transportation is still not completed.
These sheep, in addition to being used as food rations, can also be used as domestic animals.
Before this, people could not even feed themselves, so of course they would not consider livestock.
Even if there is no farming at all now, the grain harvested in Yangzhou is enough to feed the people for ten years.
Not only does Liu Ke have high-yielding food such as sweet potatoes and corn, but he also has a system to rely on, so there is an endless supply of food.
People will no longer worry about food!
So, the breeding industry began to rise.
With this batch of cattle and sheep, Liu Ke believes that people in Yangzhou will be able to eat meat in the future. This is an indisputable matter.
Due to the advancement of the front line, food transportation is difficult. Basically, cattle and sheep became the food of Yangzhou Army. At first, everyone was very happy, after all, they had meat to eat.
Soon, the soldiers discovered that eating meat every day was similar to chewing grass roots.
Hiccups, Dian Wei stretched his neck to swallow the last bite of mutton, gasping for air.
"We really can't stand it anymore."
His words resonated with the generals nearby.
But as a batch of spices arrived, everyone changed their views.
The reason why eating mutton makes you feel nauseated is because there are no suitable spices to remove the mutton smell.
Now that the spices have been transported, everyone is feasting again.
And Liu Bei arrived late
"The Marquis of Dongyang has been waiting for a long time. I will apologize here." Liu Bei cupped his hands and said with a smile on his face. It seems that he has gained a good harvest this time, otherwise he would not be in such a good mood.
"Don't talk nonsense, now we have lost two or three days waiting for you, just tell us how to make up for it." Dian Wei said politely.
Liu Bei suddenly became generous and said: "How about one hundred thousand sheep?"
With one hundred thousand sheep in hand, Liu Bei can be considered a nouveau riche.
Dian Wei was very satisfied and smiled.
The reason why Liu Bei was so generous was that he believed that Dian Wei had been instructed by Liu Ke.
In fact, Liu Ke really doesn¡¯t like Liu Bei.
"Okay, let's get down to business."
Liu Ke paused for a moment and then said:
"The guard of the Xianbei Royal Court is Tuoba Hu, who is estimated to have a hundred thousand troops. As long as this army is eliminated, Xianbei will be defeated."
The generals' blood boiled when they heard this. When millions of Xianbei went south, Bu Dugen was still watching, how arrogant was it?
Now you are just a chicken and a dog!
No one paid much attention to the remaining 100,000 Xianbei troops.
"Marquis of Dongyang, since I am late, I would like to express my apology. Our army can be the vanguard to overcome all obstacles for you and capture the Xianbei Royal Court." Liu Bei said impassionedly.
Dian Wei looked disdainful, and Liu Bei's appearance was too ugly.
They have forced Xianbei to this point, and Liu Bei actually came to pick peaches?
He doesn¡¯t even look at how much he weighs.
Having an Emperor Xian is enough trouble, but adding a shameless Liu Bei, no one can stand it.
The generals were silent, waiting for Liu Ke to refuse. Surprisingly, Liu Ke gave Liu Bei hope.
"If you give me all your captures, the vanguard will be yours."
Liu Bei was stunned. This time he raided several tribes desperately and got 500,000 cattle and sheep, as well as many war horses.
He was thinking about how to expand his strength, but the Marquis of Dongyang actually proposed such an exchange condition.
Compared with the achievement of conquering the royal court, what is this capture?
Liu Bei hesitated for a moment and then agreed.
"Okay, Marquis Dongyang promises a thousand gold."
Wait until Liu Bei leaves excitedly and go to arrange theThe soldiers and horses, the generals could no longer bear it.
"My lord, why should you give this credit to Liu Bei?" Lu Bu said in surprise. He was the truly suitable candidate. He didn't expect that Liu Bei would get the first victory.
"Credit? Credit is for winning the royal court. It's nothing if you can't win. The real thing is to get the benefits. Tuoba Hu is not so easy to deal with. In a desperate situation, the Xianbei people will burst out with some fighting power and let Liu Bei test it. Fan, it's the most suitable. What's more, even if Liu Bei wins by chance, I will still be the coach." Liu Xiaoxiao said.
After all, Liu Ke is the alliance leader.
Hearing Liu Ke¡¯s explanation, everyone suddenly realized that they accepted this arrangement and waited to see Liu Bei¡¯s joke.
Of course Liu Bei knew this.
"The Marquis of Dongyang is waiting to see my joke!"
"Hey, the Yangzhou Army considers itself number one in the world, and I don't object to it, but our army is enough to deal with the mere Xianbei people." Zhang Fei said confidently.
"That's right." Guan Yu said.
Both sides are making their own plans.
Although Liu Ke agreed with Liu Bei as the vanguard, he only gave him seven days. If Tuoba Hu could not be defeated, Liu Ke would take action himself. Liu Bei agreed with this and even said harsh words:
¡°Within three days, we will definitely defeat the Xianbei Royal Court!¡±
Isn¡¯t it easy to deal with a remnant of soldiers? Why bother? Does it take so much time?
All this is not a problem at all in Liu Bei's view.
At night, Lu Bu was responsible for the night watch, but he was still unwilling and resentful.
Zhuge Liang sat down by the campfire and lowered his voice and said: "Since the expedition, the crossbow arrows have been consumed a lot, and there are not many left"
No wonder!
Lu Bu was finally relieved.
In fact, as the craftsmanship of Yangzhou's crossbows becomes more and more sophisticated, the range and power of the crossbows made in Tieniu City have gradually surpassed those of ordinary bows.
Archers have high requirements on arm strength, but crossbows do not.
This resulted in the archers being gradually replaced by crossbowmen. At least in the Shesheng Camp, there were almost no archers.
Except for some sharpshooters, they are arranged in special positions.
Therefore, the number of crossbow arrows affects the combat effectiveness of the Yangzhou Army.
In this case, Liu Bei wanted to ask for a fight, but Liu Ke saved a lot of energy.
The next day, Liu Bei got up early, gathered troops and horses with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and marched towards the Xianbei royal court.
"Xiao Zhi, this time I will achieve unparalleled achievements!"
After hearing this, Fazheng felt calm in his heart.
"My lord, Dongyang Hou is the one who defeated the main force of Xianbei."
"Haha, what's the harm? I am the first one to invade the Xianbei Royal Court, and it will be a significant mark in the history books!" Liu Bei said hopefully.
Looking at the Xianbei Royal Court in front of him, Liu Bei was determined to win. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
