Chapter 18 Meat for Food

Luo Shixin rode his horse to the battlefield where the corpse was everywhere, and the soldiers around him were carefully cleaning the battlefield.

Over the years of war, his heart has long been as steel as iron. Such a scene can no longer arouse his feelings. Gu Jing is not wavering, and his mind is thinking about the next trend.

Under the guidance of Li Jing, Luo Shixin, as the commander of the three armies, is becoming increasingly qualified.

Originally, as a general, he thought about how to fight this battle well, how to win the current battle at the lowest price, and achieve the best achievements. After winning, he enjoys the joy of victory, and if he performs well, he will be praised and worshipped. As for what happened after the war, he will slowly consider it. Now as the commander, his eyes are farther away. Immersed in the current victory, for a person like his identity, it is extremely dangerous. The focus of his thinking is how to fight the next battle and how to win the next battle. As for Li Jing, he thought about it, as the commander-in-chief of the three armies. The three armies are thousands of miles apart, and if they want to command an army that is tens of thousands of miles away, they must first have a strategy to win the decisive battle.

I believe that only Li Jing can do this ability.

Luo Shixin's current level is limited to leading the troops and horses in his hands, commanding them to defeat one strong enemy after another, and letting him command friendly troops thousands of miles away, so his IQ is a bit insufficient.

"General, next, should we stop and rest, or wait for the food and grass to come back?" Liu Rengui's face was a little pale. He usually handled military affairs in the rear, and it was the first time he had ever been on the battlefield. He saw such a scene of corpses everywhere with his own eyes. The liquid in the stomach couldn't help but roll and vomit, and it was finally relieved. Fortunately, he had a strong psychological quality, if it were someone else. He had encountered such a scene for the first time, and he had to vomit to death.

Of course, there are exceptions to this kind of thing. This is the case with the original owner of Luo Shixin's body. He is just a weirdo. At the age of fourteen, he did not have any discomfort when he went to the battlefield, but instead was excited and had a bloodthirsty urge to kill.

"No more wait!" Luo Shixin looked deep in the grassland and said, "Since he decided to fight a quick battle and a blitzkrieg, then he should be quick and completely without delay. He would go in directly, what's the point of being fast and slow."

Liu Rengui also realized the benefits of the blitzkrieg. Because of their speed, the Turks unexpectedly caught them off guard.

However, the speed of the food and grass running is obviously not going to keep up with the pace. If you continue to move faster, you will be too far away from the logistics line.

This is the concern in Liu Rengui. The three armies move first, and food and grass take the lead. This is the basic law of war in this era. Luo Shixin violated this law this time, and not only did not have much impact, but he achieved extraordinary results. This shocked Liu Rengui, and he also realized that the way of using troops must be adapted to the situation and not follow the military books, and he will continue to copy them.

But there is no doubt that the importance of food and grass is. How many battles in history have won the more are related to food and grass?

The most familiar battle of Guandu. If Xu You hadn't brought Cao Cao the news of Wuchao's food and grass, would Cao Cao really defeat Yuan Shao, who owned the four northern prefectures, when he was on the verge of ammunition and food exhaustion?

If they continue to go deeper, their food and grass will really become a certain problem.

"Take advantage of the victory and pursue the victory, you can really take advantage of it. But... how should the problem of food and grass be solved? We go lightly and we have already eaten almost the same food." Liu Rengui just investigated the food they own from the rear. All the food was not enough for them to eat for two days. In two days, there would be a risk of food being cut off. This broke through the Jianyi tribe and was able to seize some food.

However, the Animai tribe is a nomadic people on the grassland, not as good as the Central Plains. Food has always been a serious problem for their survival. Their lives have always been reserved for winter food in spring, summer and autumn, and relying on the reserved food to survive the harsh winter. Now that winter has just passed, the food saved by the Turks has almost eaten the food they saved for winter. It is unlikely that they can survive the difficulties by relying on the food they received. At most, they can only last a few more days.

"Are there still sheep?" Luo Shixin obviously thought about this question and answered casually, "This clingy tribe is not small, and there should be at least ten thousand sheep in the sheep pen, which is only enough."

"This is a good solution." Liu Rengui had thought about this problem. It is more than enough for a tribe to raise 30,000 soldiers. It was just that the Central Plains people who were used to eating rice suddenly changed their habits and followed the Turks to fill their stomachs with goat milk, horse milk, and barley. They might not be able to adapt. They also worriedly said: "I'm afraid that we Central Plains people will not be used to eating it. It's okay to drink some milk occasionally to fill their stomachs. However, if you use it for a long time, you may not be able to persist. I don't know if there will be any accidents."

Xue Wanjun rushed over from one side. He heard the discussion between the two and agreed: "Suddenly changing lifestyle will cause disagreement and stomach disease. We have a very heavy task. If such an accident occurs, it will be detrimental to the next battle."

"Where do you want to go?" Luo Shixin rolled his eyes and said, "I mean to kill and eat, so I won't be stupid enough to experience the Turkish lifestyle at this time."

Liu Rengui and Xue Wanjun were so shocked that they couldn't speak. They were all wondering whether their ears were heard wrongly.

"What, I can't bear to bear?" Luo Shixin saw what they meant.

Liu Rengui nodded seriously.

This was not because he was stingy, but because he thought it should be taken for granted.

Sheep were extremely important animals in ancient times. Its milk can be drunk, its hair can be used for clothes, and feces are the best fertilizer, which can improve soil quality, but fortunately feed them, and finally meat can be eaten. Not to mention in the Central Plains where animal husbandry is underdeveloped, even in the grassland where animal husbandry is developed, sheep are kept in captivity like treasures. Only when the most important guest comes or when it is about to die of old age will it kill and eat meat.

Transporting the looted sheep back to the Tang Dynasty will produce huge wealth and generate huge value.

And kill and eat?

The meat of lambs is not much, and they consume a lot of energy when they serve in the army and eat a lot. A sheep removes blood and bones. A meal can only satisfy the stomachs of ten people at most.

They had nearly 30,000 soldiers, which means they had to eat 3,000 sheep in one meal. Two meals a day were calculated as more than 10,000 sheep. One hundred thousand sheep was not enough for the army to eat for a month... But if one hundred thousand sheep was used reasonably, the profit produced was huge.

It is precisely because they calculate each other that they are disproportionate at all.

Liu Rengui didn't think about this. After Luo Shixin said this, his heart was bleeding!

This style of playing is really too luxurious!

Luo Shixin said: "Actually, I'm a little reluctant to let it go. But everything is worth it. If you feed on mutton, you don't have to worry about the logistics of food and grass. You can win and smoothly. You won't be restricted by the logistics. If you fight smoothly, you can reduce casualties and end the battle earlier. In the end, whether you make a profit or a loss is not the question I think. Winning this battle and annihilation of the Turks is our goal."

Liu Rengui and Xue Wanjun were really surprised one after another.

Liu Rengui nodded and said, "I understand!"

Xue Wanjun was also secretly impressed. Luo Shixin was able to achieve great achievements today, but he was indeed not a false reputation: his determination and courage in all aspects were not comparable to him.

"General!" Mo Hu'er frowned at this time and walked from a distance.

"What's wrong?" Luo Shixin asked with a smile.

Mo Hu'er said, "It's a bit strange. There are many wooden boards piled around the Jianyi tribe. Some sheep pens and horse pens were demolished and piled aside. I think they might want to learn from us Han people, encircle their tribes and build a fortress. This is not in line with the habits of the Turks. I think they came to target us with strong crossbows?" He was the first Han people who were captured by the Turks and became slaves on the grasslands. He grew up in the Turks since he was a child. He was extremely familiar with the habits of the Turks and was the first to notice this problem.

Luo Shixin pondered for a moment and suddenly said, "General Xue, you immediately gather the troops with General Su. Join the army, and you will instruct the back to hand over all the food to the two generals." As he said that, he turned to Xue Wanjun and said, "After leading the food, you immediately go to the middle between the Uk tribe and the Luoyi tribe to stop them from joining forces."

"Hu'er, immediately send an order. The soldiers in the army sorted out the battlefield in batches, and the remaining soldiers were raising their energy, making fires and cooking. They advanced tonight to attack the Wu tribe."

************

Hammod tribe.

Most of the Turkic tribes were named after clan surnames. Because Luo Yi was a Han Chinese and did not have Turkic surnames, he could only use his name as the tribe's name.

The Great Hammod Khan was the name given to Luo Yi by the Turkic Khan King, which means "the eagle on the grassland". I hope Luo Yi can help him like an eagle.

Now, the Great Hammod Khan walked into the tent angrily and threw the helmet in his hand to the ground.

Fang Gang counted the results of the battle. The losses he suffered were even greater than expected. He actually lost more than three thousand, three times more than he expected to be more than one thousand. This result really made him unacceptable.

Of course, what made him even more unbearable was the saying "Go away, don't send it."

**Naked face slap!

This was the intention of pretending to defeat and lure the enemy, but the opponent rushed to kill him with a trick, then patted his butt and left, causing the ambush he specially arranged to lie foolishly on a hillside, just like a group of fools.

Of course, the stupidest one is him, the leader.

The arrangement ended with the loss of 3,000 troops, which really made him unacceptable.

Of course, none of this was the real reason for his anger. The real reason was Luo Shixin.

Luo Shixin, these three words, this person appears again in his life like a nightmare and blocks his way forward.

In the previous battle, he saw something.

Under Luo Shixin's training, Bian Jun grew up more terrifying than he expected. The opponent's combat power needs a complete re-estimation, and Luo Shixin's current strength is even more terrifying than he imagined.

He can't deal with it!

He finally achieved his current status and put on Luo Shixin's defeated generals, which he could not bear. But the most unwilling thing was that he could not think of a way to deal with Luo Shixin now...

"General!"

At this time, a shout came from outside the tent.

Luo Yi stepped forward and picked up the helmet, calmed down, and said, "Come in!"

Now the Turks still call him a general, only a few people, all of whom have followed him for many years.

What came in was a Turkic general, Luo Yi was the dominant person in Yanzhou. Yanzhou was located at the junction of Hu and Han, and there were many Turkic people living and living.

Compared with the Central Plains people, the Turks were brave and fierce, and were also good at riding and shooting. Local warlords liked to recruit these Turks to the army to listen to them. Luo Yi was no exception, and Chu Qingshan was one of them.

"How is it? Did the Ukrainian tribe also fall into the trap? How did they lose?" Luo Yi couldn't wait to ask.

After Luo Yi withdrew his troops, he could not think of a way to deal with Luo Shixin and could not break the situation. He also wanted to understand the situation of the Ukrainian tribe. With the relationship between the Ukrainian tribe, there is no need to think that they will definitely support it, and they will fall into the trap like him, and the situation will only be worse than him.

Now both sides are grasshoppers on the same rope, so it is necessary to unite and deal with the behemoth Luo Shixin together.

Chu Qingshan shook his head and said, "They were defeated very badly. When they met Su Dingfang, even Khan Wumo was dead. Eight thousand soldiers and horses fled back less than three thousand. The situation of the Wu tribe is now in dismal."

Luo Yi's eyes lit up after hearing the news, and he said in surprise: "What kind of person are they? Are they cowards? Or are they brave but not wise? Or are they brave and wise?"

Chu Qingshan said: "This subordinate doesn't know much, but he should have some skills. He doesn't care about mourning for his father, but he is trying his best to stabilize the people's hearts and is repairing fortifications as agreed."

Luo Yi took two steps back and forth, and where did the two fists fall together. He knocked them hard twice, and unexpectedly saw hope in his eyes...

It's an opportunity!

This is an opportunity.

The Lanyi tribe no longer has the power to turn the world back, and it will definitely be destroyed. The Uk tribe lost the Khan again, losing more than 5,000 troops, and its strength is around 10,000. If the Turks women who could shoot archers could raise 20,000 or 30,000 troops.

Luo Shixin fought three times in a row, and the soldiers were exhausted and lost a certain number of soldiers.

If the Uk tribe is incorporated into his camp, he will have 40,000 combat power to resist Luo Shixin's attack and delay until Jie Li sends troops to help. There is no big problem.

The most important thing is that he can control the Ukrainian tribe and only finds opportunities to let the new Khan of the Ukrainian tribe die on the battlefield. The Ukrainian tribe has no leader and is dependent on others, so he can just annex it in one go.

Now it's time to use people, so Jie Li won't bother with him.

"Quick! Go to the Uk tribe again and invite them to lead all the tribe members to my Hammod tribe. My defense facilities are very complete. In the current situation, only by gathering the power of our two tribes can we resist the invasion of the evil spirit Luo Shixin."

Just as he rekindled his hope, a piece of news fell from the sky, and the Tang army appeared between the Hammode tribe and the Uk tribe. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better, updated and faster!
