When Lin Fengjin woke up from his sleep, he found that the rain was still pouring, and the water in the temporarily dug drainage ditch in the military camp was gurgling loudly. There were already dim lights in several tents around, and there were also
Several big-headed soldiers wearing tarpaulins were digging new ditches.
Lin Fengjin was no stranger to life in the military camp, but his identity at this time was still a bit embarrassing. Before he came to look for Liu Ou, it could be said that he was a desperate family member who came to inquire about the news. Even those military reports were top secret.
, it doesn’t hurt to take a look for yourself. However, after getting the sure news, it would be unwise to stay in the military camp without leaving, so he planned to go see Liu Ou now to say thank you, and then go to the Huotou Army for a drink of ginger.
Let's eat some soup and go.
Although it's not time to eat, with such heavy rain, this place is responsible for the important task of forwarding the army's supplies, so there must be food transport teams coming and going at any time, so the fire in the stove of the Huotou Army must be burning forever.
If you are alive, you can give someone who has been caught in the rain a mouthful of scalding hot ginger soup to drive away the cold, and the number of people who will fall ill in the future will be reduced by at least half. Although Liu Ou is just forty, he has at least spent some years as a soldier eating food.
With more than 20 years of experience, he is considered an veteran in the military, so he will definitely pay attention to this detail.
After Lin Fengjin thought this way, he arrived at the door of Liu Ou's military tent. He was about to ask the soldiers to pass the news, when he saw the soldiers looked at him, then he laughed and said:
"Mr. Lin is here! Please come in quickly. My general said that he will come in as soon as he wakes up."
Lin Fengjin was confused, but as soon as he opened the curtain to keep out the rain, he heard at least twenty or thirty people inside making loud noises, all of them shouting in dragging voices, and there were even sounds of banging on the table.
, the one at the other end seemed ten times more lively than the vegetable market. After Lin Fengjin walked in, the others didn't even have the time to look back, and they were all noisy around Liu Ou's table.
"What is going on?" Lin Fengjin was stunned. He immediately thought of a possibility. His heart felt like a heavy hammer hit him: "Is there bad news in Yedu?"
Therefore, Lin Fengjin couldn't care about so much. He had to listen carefully to what these people said. However, after listening to what these people said, he gradually relaxed, because the content of these people's conversations was:
"General, general, we have been without food for a day. Thousands of people have been soaking in mud and water for ten hours. If you don't nod and don't give out food, I won't leave here!"
"Old Liu, you must give me this face. We only have enough horse feed for a day and a half. You know that there are many military orders. If the time is delayed, I, a guy who only eats eight and a half pounds, will have to move.
.”
"Who knew that we would be hit by a plague of rain when we went out? Now we have more than two hundred men lying down in the camp. The tents given to us by those bastards can't cover the rain.
, I am here to dispatch some tents and baggage, General. Please handle it as soon as possible."
""
After listening to what these people said, Lin Fengjin looked at the map next to him. He immediately understood that the location of Liu Ou's army at this time was exactly at Jimingyi. He could tell by the name of the place that it was.
An important node on the official road, the core of this town's original prosperity, is because there is an inn here.
There are a series of inns along the official road, like pearls connected by threads. Normally, the distance between two inns is the distance that an adult can walk back and forth in one day. Therefore, it is twenty-five miles.
There is one post every thirty miles, so there should not be too many post stations on one post road.
However, Jimingyi is a large post on an important arterial road connecting the east and west, so its location is very important. It happens to be at the intersection of the important official road connecting the north and the south and the east-west official road, which can be said to be a traffic hub, so naturally it is
Even if you want to be deserted, you can't be idle.
Liu Ou can be regarded as a good fighter who dares to fight and kill, but because he is usually a bit arrogant, he seems to be incompatible with his colleagues. In view of this, General Shen Can of Guangfeng also found that the rainy season is coming and the road is slippery and muddy, so
That is to say, he was "entrusted with an important task" and asked him to supervise the rear army and other matters such as food, grass and baggage. Shen Can took the rest of the people with light clothes and traveled quickly. Anyway, he was on his own land in Northern Qi, so he was not afraid of any disaster.
to supplies.
Protecting the food road is the top priority for the entire army, but for the fighting men in the army, it is not as quick and easy as going directly into battle. However, Liu Ou is a person who prefers fierce generals, so this arrangement is also difficult.
I couldn't tell you, there was no use in getting in front of Lu Yu. I could only grit my teeth and get on with the job.
However, there are naturally transfer envoys and food officers in the army, and a self-transfer system has long been formed. Therefore, in the first period of time, Liu Ou also acted as a hands-off shopkeeper, and directly reported any matters on official documents.
Just stamp it and make a mark. But in this way, Liu Ou can't play any use, so the work he needs to undertake is equivalent to being done by his subordinates, and the system is operating at full capacity.
As a result, when the Kuangfeng Army arrived here, they encountered heavy rain, which was what Lin Fengjin and the others encountered when they were trekking on the grassland. The loss of food and grass suddenly intensified. In order to continue to supply the front, the military ordered Ruoshan,
So Liu Ou waved his hand and requisitioned grain on the spot. Not only the grain and grass in Jimingyi, but also the grain stocks in the two nearby counties were also requisitioned, and dozens of stamped white slips were printed.
When the local civil servants encountered this situation, they could only accept it humbly as a scholar encountered soldiers. However, Jimingyi was a traffic hub. Liu Ou had already plundered here, and the rest of the troops heading to King Qin also had to pass by.
Here, God treats everyone equally. It is impossible to say that the Kuangfeng Army rushed on the road and the baggage did not suffer losses, and the rest of the army rushed on the road without losses. From the direction of Sisheng Pass, King Qin's border army went to collect food and inquired about it, and found out that the people and the treasury were
All the food had been looted by Liu Ou, so of course he had to come and beg for it.
As a result, Liu Ou's baggage system was already operating at full capacity, but so many things were added to it all at once. He immediately felt a little overwhelmed, but he was gritting his teeth and working all night.
Coping with working overtime.
The rain here had just stopped for two days, and it rained heavily again this morning. As if the gods were holding a ladle and splashing down hard, the logistics officials immediately rushed to rush to repair and waterproof. This was originally
After staying up all night, the rain poured down and the cold wind blew. Immediately, several people fell ill. Now Liu Ou's baggage system was almost paralyzed under the huge pressure.
The rain also caused several surrounding friendly forces and the local government to be distressed. They all came to Liu Ou for support - who told him to do everything in his power, eating up all the excess food and grass within hundreds of miles in one go?
, even the surplus grain from the private sector was purchased together?
Therefore, when Lin Fengjin came in at this time, he saw Liu Ou in such an embarrassing state. It can be said that this guy was so upset that he couldn't wait to face ten times the enemy and rush into battle.
Don't face such a group of people who seem to be asking for life-threatening debts. Almost half of the hair on their heads was pulled out! At this time, Liu Ou suddenly saw Lin Fengjin, and his eyes suddenly lit up. Others didn't.
I know this man, how can he not recognize me?
Liu Ou is also an old soldier in the army. Although he doesn't know how to do it, he also has a good vision. Although Lin Fengjin was not well-known in the army at that time, everything he did was the work of the military steward. As long as it was not
The problem of going into battle can be solved immediately as soon as you go to this man. He can do it for you.
Properly. He also knew that the friendship between Lu Yu and Lin Fengjin could not even be described as a simple monarch and minister. It had to be mixed with friendship. So when Liu Ou saw Lin Fengjin, he
Without further hesitation, he jumped up from behind the desk and roared fiercely:
"What a fuss, what a fuss, my general's mind has been reduced to a pulp by your noise, shut the fuck up!!"
Liu Ou's cry had the effect of suppressing the whole audience. Liu Ou took the opportunity to quickly walk up to Lin Fengjin and begged with a sad face:
"Sir, look at all the bad things going on here, you really can't just ignore it..."
Lin Fengjin originally felt that he owed Liu Ou a favor. He couldn't just throw away at this time. In addition, the army could be said to be the most well-informed place at this time. Of course, the most important thing is that these things on Liu Ou's side
For him, the matter was not too difficult at all, so he sighed and said:
"It's easy to help you, but now I am just a lifter..."
As soon as Liu Ou heard what Lin Fengjin said, he immediately grinned, gave Lin Fengjin his seal and command arrow, and then said loudly:
"If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Lin. He has been entrusted by the general to handle these baggage matters. My mind is about to explode from your troubles. Go and get some sleep first."
So those people aimed at Lin Fengjin and swarmed forward. However, such a battle was as intimidating to Liu Ou, but Lin Fengjin downplayed it. The bureaucracy of Northern Qi was no stranger to him, so he found a few officials.
After the officer understood the situation, he quickly entered the state:
"Are you from Xicheng County? Are you going to provide relief for the flood? Okay, I understand. I have been to Xicheng County. There is twenty or thirty acres of open space in the Luoma Market at the east gate of the county, right? A porridge will be set up there early tomorrow morning.
Come out of the shed, why do you need the county magistrate to do this for you? You can go."
"Your army has run out of food? Oh, it's the garrison in Gu County. I know, I know. How about you send 300 shi of food? What, that's too little? You have more than 5,000 people in total... Don't say that.
You said it in front of me, among the more than 5,000 of you, there are at least 1,200 or 300 vacancies. Now you are still thinking of pretending to claim it. Do you want me to ask you to kill a few heads with my sword?! Three hundred
The stone grain is enough for you to last for two or three days. If it is not enough, come and talk to me again!"
"Oh, your army is in need of horse feed. Animals are a big deal and cannot be dealt with in a fool's errand. Once they have diarrhea, it is likely to become a plague and dozens of animals will fall in droves! Do you have a veterinarian?
?If not, how many can we send?
I will be able to provide enough for you when the time comes, but if you get the horse feed, you will have to send me at least thirty carts. If you go to Qinwang in this weather, the water in the three weirs in front of you can rise directly to your feet.
, there is no use in getting a big car.”
""
Liu Ou said he was going to take a nap, but actually stood there for a while, but saw Lin Fengjin sitting there, scolding, sarcastically and threatening, and then drove away a group of people, such as
Those from Xicheng County and the garrison in Gu County wanted to come to fight the autumn wind. But these people couldn't even reply in front of Lin Fengjin, they could only murmur and walk away in despair.
Seeing this scene, Liu Ou immediately felt very happy. He had known that there must be cunning people among these people. But he couldn't do anything to them. He couldn't kill them with one knife!? Seeing these people in front of Lin Fengjin, he was ashamed of his grandson.
I walked away, feeling happier than anything else.
Next, Lin Fengjin divided them into categories, first handling some small and simple things, and then the difficult and complicated things. While doing these small and simple things, he was able to roughly understand the general situation of his subordinates.
After figuring out the ability, the next step was to take Liu Ou's command arrow to mobilize people to do things. Under Lin Fengjin's combing, the originally chaotic camp became orderly after only two or three hours.
Of course, this does not mean that Lin Fengjin himself has the ability to turn stones into gold and make people smarter, but because Beiqi's entire logistics system itself has a very mature system and step-by-step rules.
It was a ship. Firstly, it was operating at full capacity. Secondly, the helmsman's ability was limited, and there were several holes in the ship. Of course, many problems occurred, so it seemed chaotic and even about to sink.
The appearance of Lin Fengjin is equivalent to having a very clever helmsman to control the whole scene, and at the same time, he has blocked the holes in the ship in a timely manner, so even if it is operating at full load, it can be enough to support it, or even overloaded.
Some of them don't matter.
After being busy for a few hours and sorting things out, Lin Fengjin also felt hungry. He asked someone to get some food. The first thing in the army is qualifications. The second thing is ability. Although Lin Fengjin is new here, but
He had already shown enough strength before and promoted a few people by the way. Naturally, there were people who immediately came to work for him.
Don't pay attention to the taste of the food in the army, that is, it is rich in oil, water, and thick, which is very suitable for Lin Fengjin's current situation of being hungry. Lin Fengjin was picking up the food, and when he looked up, he saw Liu Ou walking in with a smile on his face.
:
"Sir, you are indeed a talented person. For such a troublesome matter, three times, five times and two times is like a quick knife to cut through the mess. It is really enjoyable to watch."
Lin Fengjin smiled slightly and said:
"It's much easier to dispatch this group of people than it was to dispatch the big guys from your Snake-Eating Army. You can scold them if you want to, scold them if you want to scold them, expose them when you see them, and solve them when you see them - now you have Ye
Any latest news over there?”
Liu Ou shook his head and said:
"In this weather, even if we use Gold Medal Express, we can only come here on foot, not on horseback. Don't worry, sir. After this rain, Yedu will be impregnable and foolproof!"
Lin Fengjin nodded and said:
"That's good. You can ask someone to come over and take inventory and prepare to take over. I think the rain will lighten up during the night. I'll go and rest when it gets dark later. I'll leave after the third watch tomorrow morning."
"Go?" Liu Ou asked in surprise, "Sir, where are you going?"
Lin Fengjin said in astonishment:
"Of course I'm going back to Sisheng Pass. I still have a lot of business to take care of!"
Hearing what Lin Fengjin said, Liu Ou was already complaining about his injustice, and said with a bitter face:
"Sir, your little business is really nothing. The strings here seem to have been tightened. They have been spinning for two or three days. Now you are here to take charge of the business. Four people have already come to me to complain.
I'm sick. It's really not a ploy to say that I really can't take it anymore and I need to take a rest.
And so on, they are really sick and struggling to hold on, their foreheads are hot, and their eyeballs are full of bloodshot eyes! Someone said to me and slipped towards the ground. Do you want to do this?
If you lose, it's over, and I'm sure things will be paralyzed tomorrow."
While Liu Ou was talking, he had already taken out an official document with a seal. This thing looked familiar to Lin Fengjin. It was the document of the conquest. He also listened to Liu Ou's advice, saying that if the circulation operation here was
If it is stable, it is also contributing to the overall situation.
When Liu Ou said this, Lin Fengjin was actually willing to stay with the army's baggage team. He was well-informed and didn't have to take risks in battle, so he half-heartedly stayed, but the conquest document was confiscated.
The one who came down, why, of course he looked down upon the logistics secretary of the Kuangfeng Army. As soon as he received the conquest documents, didn't he become Shen Can's subordinate? He was friends with Shen Can as his equal.
Now that he had decided where to go, Lin Fengjin asked Liu Ou to sign the documents from the Storm Army, stamped the seal, and asked hundreds of personal guards composed of wild boar and red cavalry to come here to look for him. At this time,
In special times, the inspections at the checkpoints are very strict. If so many riders have to enter at one time, they really can't get in without the endorsement of the military documents.
As for the rest of the people, they are not idle. The current priority is to find a suitable cauldron for the great witch and evil spirit and then possess it. This cauldron must resonate with the soul of the great patriarch, otherwise
, it will quickly weaken like Han Tian's body.
During this process, Shui'e couldn't get away, so she had to use the "Ganlin Technique" among her water magical powers, which would get twice the result with half the effort.
However, Lin Fengjin considered that the ones who could play a big role in the battle formation were fierce generals like Ye Boar and his personal guards. The rest of them might not be of much use, so he just let them stay in Wu Zuocheng.
Next, Lin Fengjin settled down at Jimingyi. (To be continued)
