Chapter 60 These days, if you have food, you are a mother
A carriage and a carriage of gold, silver and jewelry were moved from the mausoleum of Liu Chang, King of Zhongshan, to the Wei Mansion of Chenliu County.
Some bandits judged from the ruts of the carriage along the way that as long as the carriage was not filled with stones, it was of immeasurable value. Just hijacking a carriage would be enough to cover the expenses of a village for several years.
However, when they inquired a little more and learned that the knights escorting the carriage were Yanzhou officers and soldiers, the idea of plundering disappeared immediately.
Yanzhou officers and soldiers are now mythical beings. Damn it... Thousands of them defeated hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban thieves. They, who are bandits, still have to weigh their own weight.
However, the news spread like wildfire.
Some people say that Wei Hong, the richest man in Chenliu, probably made money again from doing business. This time he made so much that the crypt of the Wei Mansion could not fit in it. His grandson held a gold urinal to drink water every day.
Some people also said that Wei Hong dug up a mountain of gold. There was gold and jewelry everywhere, and there was so much to pick up. In short, it was said that it was magical.
Of course, how would they know that the gold was taken from the mausoleum, and...it didn't belong to the Wei family, the richest man in Chenliu at all.
The reason why he released the Wei family was because Lu Yu thought it would be more convenient for Mr. Wei to use it to exchange for food on the black market. These days, copper plates are not worth much, and the prices of gold and jewelry are very tough.
More people are paying attention to the countless gold in the Weifu crypt. What few people notice is that carts of grain are being sent to a military camp five miles southeast of Chenliu County day and night. The people stationed here are
They are Lu Yu's thousand knights.
Lu Yu's side has gained a lot of weight, and with it, the good days of Qian Xiaoqi have also come.
…
"Ahem..."
At this moment, Cao Xiu, who was in the main camp of the Chinese army, coughed several times.
As for the reason, Lu Yu had just made a special trip to the military camp to tell him.
From now on, the food standards for these thousand brothers have changed.
Lu Yu even made a detailed list, requiring the brothers to ensure that each person eats two kilograms of grain, one kilogram of meat, and one kilogram of fruits and vegetables every day. This is the minimum standard.
Well…
Cao Xiu took a breath. He thought, now that he has money, he has money, but the landlords don't dare to build it like this.
That's all. Lu Yu also made extremely strict requirements. Each person's daily meal should not be less than one tael or one tael.
If a soldier is short of one ounce of grain or one ounce of meat, then the captain of the team will sit down together! If there are a hundred soldiers, all of them are short of a pound or two of meat, then the captain of the centurion will be seated together!
If thousands of people do this, then Yamen will sit together...
Haha, Cao Xiu's heart trembled, and he said "haha"!
Damn it, there must be soldiers below him who are short of food, and even he will sing "Liangliang".
This is really a happy trouble...
Speaking of which, it was commonplace in the original Qiaopei Army Camp to withhold military rations.
Everyone is used to it and can understand it. This is not to say that uncle Cao Cao did this on purpose, but everyone knows that Cao Cao is a poor man. It would be good if he can guarantee that he will not starve to death. What do you need a bicycle... ah no, what do you need food?
ah!
But now?
It is necessary to eat so much food every day, including meat and vegetables, but it is still a rigid rule. The key is that the quartermaster does not dare to skimp.
Not to mention Cao Xiu, even the entire battalion was a little confused and felt that this happy life was a bit unreal.
If you think of other military camps, they are still struggling to survive for two months with ten days of food!
Especially Xiahou Dun, his eyes hurt from worry, especially his left eye, which felt like it was shaking so much that it was about to pop out.
The Qingzhou soldiers under his command were difficult enough to discipline, but there was still a large group of hungry Qingzhou soldiers. Xiahou Dun didn't say anything about it, but he felt miserable in his heart!
…
"General? Are you really following Master Lu Yu's instructions?" The lieutenant beside Cao Xiu scratched his head. "Three kilograms of grain and one kilogram of meat per person per day, isn't it a bit excessive? It's going to be spread out, it's a bit embarrassing...
"
It's embarrassing. Other military camps are chewing tree bark, and you eat four kilograms of food a day. This can no longer be described as embarrassing, it is simply "irritating"!
"Ahem..." There was another light cough.
"Although it's a little embarrassing... but..." Cao Xiu touched his swollen belly. "You and I can't speculate on Mr. Lu Yu's knowledge? Besides..."
Cao Xiu recalled Lu Yu's words just now, and he simply imitated Lu Yu's tone.
"Didn't you hear just now? What did Mr. Lu Yu say... Before the soldiers and horses use food and grass, ensuring the supplies of the brothers is the top priority. How can we train if we can't even eat enough?"
"Hungry people will faint if you practice too hard. Oh no, no one understands your thoughts better than Mr. Lu Yu. Your stomach is growling. Do you have the strength of a bird? The training is also perfunctory!"
When Cao Xiu repeated Lu Yu's words, several lieutenants immediately felt that it made sense...
As expected of you, Mr. Lu Yu! You can sum up such a set of principles by eating four kilograms of rice every day. I am convinced, and I am convinced from the bulging belly.
Of course…
How did they know that the reason why Lu Yu did this was to follow the food standards of my Chinese soldiers.
Before time travel, although being a soldier was hard work, the food was really delicious. Not only was there meat in every meal, but the nutrition was also good, the portions were huge, and the meat was enough!
With such a meal and training, every soldier can reveal his bronzed muscles when he takes off his military uniform.
Their bodies are as strong as grizzly bears, their six-pack abs are bulging, and their biceps are as tight as drums without any special effort.
It is precisely because of this that every citizen of Greater China can have a sufficient sense of security.
However, the soldiers of this era are definitely not comparable to my soldiers from Greater China.
However, as nothing else compares, let’s start with food. Anyway, Lu Yu is now doing that business without capital, and he has a good way of making money. If he doesn’t lack money, he just thinks of it as a sprinkling of water!
"General..." There was still a deputy general who was a bit thin-skinned. "Next door to us is Chenliu Prefect Zhang Miao's 3,000-man army. Do you want to give them some food? After all, we are close. We have a lot of fish and meat, and they are eating tree bark."
,it doesn’t look good…”
The ancients were still more shameless and were afraid of gossiping behind others' backs.
but.
"Give it to them? Forget it!" Cao Xiu refused directly. "This is all what the brothers paid for with their lives. If you don't go down to the mausoleum, you don't know how terrible that 'people light wax and ghosts blow out lamps' is. If Master Lu Yu hadn't been proficient in it,
How can we enjoy the good life here?"
At this point, Cao Xiu paused for a moment. "Besides, it would be great if we rough guys can sweep the snow in front of our own homes, so we don't have time to worry about the frost on other people's tiles!"
"Even if you really want to give it, you have to ask Zhang Miao, the prefect of Chenliu, to ask our Master Lu Yu. If Master Lu Yu gives it, he will take it. If Master Lu Yu doesn't give it, he can't use the gun. These days, if you have food, you are your mother!"
