Chapter 315
The food transport officer was still the same as before. He heard that Lin's firm had sent a batch of things to the sergeants, and sent someone to escort them along with him. He sighed and set off.
Since the concrete road has been built to the border of Lizhou, the speed of food transportation this time is nearly half the time faster than the time when Lin Zhen came with him, and it arrived at the place where the soldiers were stationed smoothly in four or five days.
The grain transportation officer found the person who was in charge of the army's food and grass here, and specifically explained to him, pointing to the dozens of carriages at the end of the driveway: "It was given to the Lizhou sergeant by Lin Boss of Lin's business, my lord told Mr. Gu Let's see how Mr. Gu distributes it."
The east-west food transportation officer has seen that there are quite a lot of good things, such as canned meat, jerky, and fried noodles.
There is also a batch of thick clothes, trousers and leather boots made of this year's new cotton. The grain transport officer reached out and touched them. Good guys, they must be very warm to wear!
The official who received the food and grass nodded: "Don't worry, I must tell the adults about this matter."
He had just led people to kill hundreds of thieves from the Che Luo Kingdom who were spying on him. Before Gu Lin got off his horse, he heard someone report that Boss Lin of Lin's Commercial Company had sent someone to take a look.
Gu Lin looked at the team delivering grain and grass in front of him, tapped the horse's belly lightly with his heel, and drove the horse towards the grain and grass.
The few people behind him looked at each other and followed.
"Master Zhizhou, these were sent by Boss Lin of Lin's Commercial Firm. The officials took a quick look at the things and found that there are food and useful things."
Gu Lin got off the horse and lifted the oil paper covering the things, and saw wooden boxes neatly stacked inside, prying open one box, it was full of familiar canned meat.
Behind him came the subordinates who had fought side by side before. After eating canned meat, their mouths drooled immediately, and they trot to Gu Lin's side: "My lord, this thing is good. Our left forward has killed a lot these days." There are a lot of thieves who are short of oil and water, you must leave a few boxes for us!"
And those generals of the frontier army had never eaten canned meat. Seeing that they had killed more thieves than themselves just now, the Lizhou sergeant who looked like a gangster smiled like a flower, and walked over in puzzlement :"what is this?"
General Lizhou who had eaten canned meat blinked, "It's nothing, just a little coarse grain."
The frontier general looked at him suspiciously, "Really?"
"Otherwise, what else can it be, we two brothers, can we still lie to you?"
Gu Lin lifted off the thick oiled paper on another carriage, and picked up a thick one with straps sewn on it. It looked like thick cotton knee pads specially used to protect the knees, and the corners of his mouth raised a little.
The food transport officer came up and said: "In addition to the knee pads, there are also cotton-padded clothes and trousers, and leather boots. They come in different sizes, and they are very useful."
"Well, carry them all in," Gu Lin put the thick knee pads back into the carriage, and said to the food delivery official, "Go back and tell Boss Lin that the things are very good, and I'm tired."
"Yes, I will definitely bring the words to you." The deputy Qianhu who followed to Liyu Village had a big mouth, and now almost everyone in Lizhou City knew that Master Gu and Boss Lin were married, and they were a legitimate couple.
Boss Lin's attitude of sending things from such a long distance, not to mention Mr. Gu, even the grain transport officer is envious of him.
Only Boss Lin has a rich family and is so generous.
These things are piled up with the grain and grass for the time being, but the people around Gu Lin are guarding them, but the news spread quickly, saying that a batch of things were sent from the state capital of Lizhou, and they haven't been distributed yet, so I don't know Which sergeants will be given first.
In the barracks where he was stationed, the general of the frontier army who had just left Gu Lin's side was sitting in the tent, wiping away the thorns that he had finally obtained with a step.
The bearded man sat beside him, grabbed the bowl and drank a big mouthful of hot water: "Did you see those things that were sent from Lizhou City just now? What are they? Is there any share for us?"
After working together for a long time, the frontier soldiers are more familiar with the frontier soldiers, so it is inevitable that there will be a gap or two between them and the local sergeants in Lizhou.
Especially seeing with their own eyes the weapons used by Lizhou sergeants, the armor they wore, and the horses they rode, no one would be envious or envious.
But whoever said that it was built by Mr. Gu himself, I can only hold back my jealousy and envy!
Today I heard that something has arrived, and the generals of the frontier army are a little curious about what it is and whether they have their share.
The frontier general who had seen those things said: "There are cotton robes, knee pads, leather boots, and some that look like food."
"Master Gu asked someone to guard him, but he hasn't said what to do with it yet."
Sitting next to the bearded man, although he is a military commander, the man with a bit of literati air said: "I don't know if there is any part for us."
The bearded man put down the bowl in his hand, and said in a low voice: "For us foreign troops, food, grass and military supplies are all supplied by the imperial court, but none of us don't know what the imperial court is called. A bowl of sorghum rice has a small half of sand and gravel. It’s all old grain that has been stored for a few years.”
"It's not like people who leave the state army. They have a dry meal every day, and a piece of meat from time to time. People are more angry than people."
As soon as he said this, the people around him stopped talking, and their thoughts were exactly the same as his, and they even wondered why they weren't soldiers under Mr. Gu's hands.
Suddenly, the camp tent was pulled open, and a sergeant came in wrapped in the wind and snow: "Sirs, Master Gu asked the officials to come and tell you, and asked to report the names of the top 2000 people who killed the most enemies during this period. Good distribution."
"In addition, this is for several adults."
As he said that, the sergeant who came in with the official counted out the canned meat, jerky and fried noodles of several of their generals, "This is from Boss Lin of Lin's Commercial Firm. box."
"There are also cotton robes, knee pads and leather boots, a set for an adult."
The general who had seen things only heard the word canned meat at this moment, and when he thought of the brother telling him that it was coarse grains, he wished to kick his ass.
meat!
This is meat!
I just don't know how to make it, and it's packed in such a box.
There is also the cotton robe that I am also coveting. As soon as I put my hands on it, I know it is stuffed with high-quality cotton, and I can't wait to use the knee pads immediately.
After a while, the knees that were so cold and numb and swollen felt much more comfortable. Several frontier generals looked at each other, and quickly reported the list without saying a word.
On the same day, the things came down. Those who killed the enemy had a box of canned meat, jerky, fried noodles, cotton robes, leather boots, and knee pads.
No matter whether it was Lizhou sergeants or frontier soldiers, they added canned meat to the dinner that night. Although each person's mouth might only have a bit of meat the size of a fingernail, it still tasted like meat.
The frontier general who was almost deceived finally kicked the ass of the Lizhou general who said that the canned meat was coarse grains: "Good old boy, this is the coarse grains you said, and left a mouthful of brothers and family members."
The Lizhou general who was kicked was not angry, and patted the snow on his buttocks: "How about it, it tastes good, ouch, let me tell you, when we were guarding Lizhou City, Boss Lin gave it a lot. Put the whole canned meat on the fire and cook rice with that soup, absolutely!"
"Gudu..." Just listening, the frontier general who kicked his butt swallowed his saliva, put his foot down, and said to the Lizhou general who was standing in front of him and slapped his butt, "tell me again You guard the matter of Lizhou City."
"Okay, my two brothers, I will say it as many times as you want to listen."
Che Luoguo was ready to go, and from time to time, he sent people to harass everywhere, and Lizhou sergeants and border troops chased and intercepted him.
"Puff—" A Lizhou sergeant was besieged by two Cheluo thieves, and was stabbed in the waist and abdomen.
The frontier sergeant not far from him hurried over on horseback, and slashed at him with a big knife that was slightly curled in his hand. Seeing this, the Lizhou sergeant endured the pain, and quickly blocked the thorn in his hand...
The people in Lizhou City were watching the soldiers from Luoran and the border all the time, and they were overjoyed when they heard the news of the victory.
But not long after the New Year's Eve, on the eve of farming in Lizhou, Yan State formed an alliance with two or three surrounding small countries and brazenly invaded Pingzhou.
In a blink of an eye, Dayu was attacked from the north and northwest, and even the number of merchants who came to Lizhou to buy goods decreased by several tenths.
The caravan of Lin's business came back with a batch of food, salt and iron from Dongyang County and sent them to the warehouse built, where they were guarded by special personnel in turn for twelve hours.
Looking at the full warehouse, Lin Zhen finally felt relieved, grabbed a handful of grain, and said to the leader of the delivery: "It's been hard these days, so I'd like to rest for a few days."
"Boss, how are we doing in Lizhou? Master Gu's side..." It stands to reason that a mere sergeant like him would not be able to inquire about such matters, but after staying in the army for so many years, he couldn't help feeling anxious.
Lin Zhendao: "It's okay, Che Luo Kingdom has increased its troops to 15, and tried to break out from the border several times, from Lizhou to the capital, but Master Gu and a group of adults tried their best to block them back."
"Huh—" The sergeant who followed out heaved a sigh of relief, but then frowned and said, "But Pingzhou is not very optimistic."
"We ran on the water, and heard and saw more. Many people in Pingzhou wanted to run out of there. I heard that Yan State has won several battles in a row, and almost swallowed most of Pingzhou. , the decline is irreversible."
Lin Zhen also frowned, thinking of Lin Xiaoyao whose business is in Pingzhou.
He has been worried since he knew that Yan State invaded Pingzhou, but now it is extremely difficult to send a letter, let alone when there is chaos.
He suppressed the worries in his heart, and said: "The imperial court has hundreds of thousands of troops available, so it should not allow Yan to go deep into the Central Plains."
"Wait for Mr. Gu to free himself from Lizhou, it should be fine."
The sergeant who went out with the caravan nodded: "That's the reason, Boss Lin, I'll go down to rest first, and you should also pay attention to your body. I see that you haven't rested for many days, and your face is a bit ugly."
"Well, you go." Lin Zhen couldn't help lowering his head, pinching the base of his nose.
Lu Lu behind him reached out to help him, but he stopped him.
Lu Lu said distressedly: "You haven't slept well in the past few months. You are either busy with business or buried yourself in the gunpowder room all day long. How can you bear it?"
"It's okay. The managers of the various workshops are busy with the business, so I'm also busy with the gunpowder room. By the way, I will go back later and ask someone to buy some more gunpowder materials."
"Know it."
Lin Zhen knew that the situation was not as easy as he said. From the appearance of the [-] frontier troops when they first arrived, and the fact that the subsequent imperial court was in arrears with food and grass, it was not difficult to see that Dayu had nothing to do but to pay for the Yan State. Methods.
In this situation, Lizhou still blocked Che Luoguo, otherwise, it would have been a mess.
The news was sent to the border, and I don't know what Gu Lin will do.
What I can do is to send more explosives and some food.
However, only half a month later, a piece of news came that the people with a bit of foresight couldn't help scolding their mothers.
Lin Zhen frowned fiercely, wishing to grab the heads of those princes and ask, "Have your brains been eaten by dogs? Internal and external troubles are not enough, and each has his own strength!?"
It turned out that this spring when the current emperor Qin Zhong went to court, he fell into a coma twice. The first time he woke up in three days, but this time there was no sign of waking up. , Those who dispatched troops dispatched troops, and those who controlled Kyoto controlled Kyoto. I heard that there were several fires in Kyoto, and several court officials died.
The imperial court, which had been encouraged to maintain it, suddenly stopped, and the soldiers who resisted the Yan Kingdom in Pingzhou were leaderless and retreated steadily.
