Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 856 Kowtow to Chang'an (4)

  At this moment, in a dilapidated dock in the eastern suburbs of Chang'an City, Li Jue and Guo Si started to worry again.

The Tian family around Wubao has become the place where Xiliang soldiers are stationed, and it is messy everywhere, and there are many disputes over the robbing of some of the only houses in Wubao. Maybe they all used knives, even so, there were still fights from time to time.

Li Jue and Guo Si could more or less understand that the soldiers were in such a situation because of their inner restlessness, but they had no better way. Jia Xu went to the east and never came back in order to avoid suspicion, while Hu Although Zhen said that he would obey the orders of Li Jue and Guo Si, in fact, he only wanted to return to Xiliang, and had no interest in attacking Chang'an at all.

  It is a good thing to have more people and horses, but money and food cannot be added immediately.

Fortunately, it is spring now. Although the fields are deserted, some wild vegetables are still growing in the Western Zhou Dynasty. In addition, Li Jue and Guo Si send people to fish in Dahe from time to time. last a few days...

  But it can only last a few days,

We can’t blame Li Jue and Guo Si for crowding out Jia Xu, or saying they don’t trust Jia Xu. It’s just Jia Xu. It's like knowing when you will be calculated, so you can't get close no matter what.

Although Jia Xu said before that as long as he shows goodwill to Hongnong Yang, food and grass will be delivered, but so far he has not seen much food and grass. Occasionally, once or twice, there are three or five full-loaded vehicles on the side of the road The cart of food and grass, and then did not hide when Xiliang came, claiming that it was sent by its owner, but refused to say who it was.

Li Jue and Guo Si felt that the grain and grass might have been sent by the Hongnong Yang family, but they didn't have any solid evidence to prove this, so they took it away temporarily, and they couldn't detain the servants who sent the luggage carts. Fearing that the Hongnong Yang family would be offended, even the follow-up food and grass would be gone, so they had to let everything go.

Without Jia Xu's advice, Li Jue and Guo Si didn't have many ideas about what to do next. It's just that there is no money and food now, and the previous batch of food and grass has already been eaten, and the next batch of food has not yet been seen. , so even if you want to attack Chang'an, it is not very realistic.

  Below the dilapidated wall of the Wubao village, there is a row of simple grass sheds. Inside the sheds are steaming hot white gas, and they are cooking meals.

Inside the basket is black and autumnal, half the size of a fist, and it can make your throat hurt from scratching. There is only a little miscellaneous grains mixed in, and most of the rest are bark and grass roots that don't know where they were pulled out. Made of steamed cakes. Just like that, it still seduced the soldiers in line to stare at him, and the corners of their mouths twitched from time to time.

  Although these foods are difficult to swallow, they are more precious than anything else to these Xiliang soldiers.

Standing next to the baskets were a few tough elite soldiers, and while distributing black steamed cakes to ordinary soldiers passing by in line, they shouted loudly: "Every person has a bowl of hot soup and a steamed cake! The general is kind, there are Fish! These are just caught from the bend of the water thirty miles away! They have been salted! They have been salted! Hey! Handle them carefully, you boy! Sprinkle them and they will be gone!"

  No matter the size of the fish, the belly of the fish is simply shaved, and then chopped into thin pieces. Even the scales of the fish are reluctant to throw away.

  Huotoujun stirred the cauldron with his big spoon, and poured a spoonful of fish soup, which just filled a wooden bowl.

   A few of them were more or less familiar with Huotoujun, and when it was their turn, they said with a hippie smile: "Brother, give me some thicker ones. I haven't seen any greasy smell in the past few days, so I'll be a poor little brother..."

The Huotou army stared at him, and immediately sprayed back: "I'll give you the thick one, let others eat the thinner one! We are all brothers and sisters, and you have the face to ask for it! Get the **** out of here!" Although the words were fierce, the hands But the spoon in the bag shook less a couple of times.

The **** who got cheap money quickly covered it up, and quickly found a corner to snort and swallow it. Even the fishbone was reluctant to spit it out, and it was finely ground into powder in his mouth, and then he licked the wooden bowl back and forth again and again. It saves cleaning.

"Food and grass!" Li Jue thumped on the table angrily, "If Chang'an is won, I will take over and scrape Taicang! I don't want to live one more day after worrying about the first meal and the next meal every day. Already!"

   Guo Si glanced at Li Jue, then nodded silently. Before that, he was just a school lieutenant who was more capable of fighting. Whether it was weapons or food, they were dispatched by Dong Zhuo or the general above. He had never worried about such things. …

  Although Guo Bang is not very talkative, most of the time he is silent, but it does not mean that he has no thoughts in his heart.

   To support tens of thousands of soldiers to fight, don't even think about it without Wanshi's grain reserves. Although Guo Si didn't express anything, in fact, he had already made up the same idea as Li Jue in his heart!

Hongnong is considered disabled, and there may still be some hidden in the mountains, but it is obviously impossible to let his troops go into the mountains to search, so they can only attack the Sanfu area, although this area is also regarded as the original Xiliang army. Belonging, but now Guo Si also realizes that at the moment, only protecting the little military power in his hand is the real thing, the other...

   Just throw it all away.

   "It's almost time to enter the Sanfu state..." After a moment of silence, Guo Si said with a strange color in his eyes, "I remember, there should be some villages and villages in the road ahead..."

   "...Forget it! Come on!"

  The soldiers outside the tent immediately walked in and bowed to salute.

Li Jue gritted his teeth, made a venomous gesture, and said, "Damn God! As long as there is a way, I won't make such a bad move! Since God doesn't give us a way to survive, then we can be ourselves Struggling to find a way to survive! Send me scouts to search for villages within 30 miles of the surrounding area! If you find it, report it as soon as possible!"

   Doing this is undoubtedly killing the chicken and picking the eggs, but if you don’t do this, you won’t be able to survive, so how can you manage a lot!

Li Jue and Guo Si didn't know that the way they were forced to choose to raise food and grass had opened a door for these Xiliang troops, a door of unscrupulous and wanton destruction. From the beginning, the Xiliang army completely lost the word "army" and became a "thief" that they themselves were unwilling to admit...

  At this time, Zhao Wen had already sneaked out of Chang'an, grabbed a personal guard beside him, and told him, "You go east quickly... just say that someone gave him a big fortune!"
