Chapter 2050: Troops and Rations

The generals looked at each other and lowered their heads to think hard.

They were good at leading troops in battle, but it was a little difficult for them to use their brains.

Of course, there were some smart ones, such as Cen Pei and Chen Sheng.

"General!" In order to "offset" his guilt, Cen Pei stood up after careful consideration, "I think the problem of troops can be solved, it's not too difficult!"

"Oh? Tell me!"

"Yes!" Cen Pei stood up, "The troops are right under my feet."

"What do you mean?"

"Report to the general! Now that our army has occupied Bashui County, we can directly recruit young and strong people in the city to join the army. It is not a problem to gather a hundred thousand troops in a short time! The county city is the home of the people of Bashui. We only need to spread rumors that the emperor of Gaoguo was furious because of the loss of the city, and hated the people in the city for not fighting to the death. After breaking the city, he will slaughter the whole city, leaving no chickens or dogs alive! To save their lives, people in the city must join the army and work together to fight the enemy!" Cen Pei said loudly.

"Wow!" Jia Zhengjin took a look at this young and handsome deputy general, thinking that some people look very literary, but they are fierce generals on the battlefield, and their strategies are extremely vicious. They are really a template of famous generals born for war!

Although the rumors spread, the people of Bashui County may not all believe them, but as long as some people believe them and spread them by word of mouth, the power is not to be underestimated.

There is a saying that "three people make a tiger", which means this.

"One hundred thousand troops?" A deputy general stood up and questioned, "Nowadays, military rations are in short supply. At present, these people and horses cannot be supported. How can we support a hundred thousand troops?"

"Yes, general! We don't have military rations, how can we support them?"

Many generals stood up and questioned.

"What do you say?" Jia Zhengjin asked Cen Pei.

"General!" Cen Pei replied immediately, "The military rations also come from the people of Bashui County."

"Tell me more about it!"

"Yes!" Cen Pei replied, "Our army spread rumors, causing panic in the city. In order to avoid a massacre, the people naturally gave their full support. The people of the city donated their stored food, and they will surely be able to hold on until the reinforcements from Danyang arrive!"

"What a good idea!"

"It sounds reasonable!"

"Not bad!"

"It's really a good plan!"

......

The generals and soldiers talked a lot,

and looked at Cen Pei with admiration.

"Hmm~" Jia Zhengjin nodded and looked around the hall, "Deputy General Cen's plan sounds good, who has any different suggestions?"

"General!" Chen Sheng stepped out after hearing this, "I have something to add."

"Speak!"

"Yes!" Chen Sheng said respectfully, "Deputy General Cen's plan will definitely work wonders, I want to help improve it."

"What do you mean?"

"I think that while spreading rumors to raise military rations, we can also promote military ration coupons!"

"Military ration coupons?" Jia Zhengjin asked in confusion, "What are those?"

"General! The so-called military ration coupons are documents issued by our army. Anyone who voluntarily offers military rations can The people of all ethnic groups can get military ration coupons that record the amount of military rations. After repelling the enemy and consolidating Bashui County, those who hold this coupon can take back the food in full and get the corresponding interest rate, which can also be converted into silver. Deputy General Cen's strategy is to levy by force, which will cause trouble in the future, but I will use this strategy to buy grain, which will never cause trouble! Military rations are not easy to raise, and this plan can solve the urgent problem, and will not cause public resentment due to forced levy, and it is easier to arouse the people to take the initiative to raise funds..."

"Good!" Jia Zhengjin narrowed his eyes, "Very good! Does anyone else want to add anything?"

The generals looked at each other, and all were silent.

After making sure that no one came out, Jia Zhengjin directly ordered: "In this case, Cen Pei!"

"I am here!" Cen Pei hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted.

"Diao Jun!"

"I am here!" Diao Jun also hurried out and stood next to Cen Pei and clasped his fists.

"I order you two to carry out the plan and spread rumors in the city!" Jia Zhengjin ordered, "Wait until the people are in panic, and then push for the plan of conscription!"

"Yes!!" Cen Pei and Diao Jun hurriedly agreed.

"Yang Ting!"

"I am here!"

"Mr. Chen!"

"I am here!"

You two should implement the military food coupons as soon as possible to solve the problem of food shortage in the city!

"Yes!!"

"Zou Yan!"

"I am here!"

"You are responsible for disciplining the army and horses, patrolling the four city gates closely, guarding against the enemy's spies sneaking in, and alerting the enemy's army to attack!"

"Yes!"

......

Jia Zhengjin arranged it, and all the generals had tasks and took action.

Cen Pei and Diao Jun left the prefectural government, and someone arranged for them to go to the temporary residence rewarded by the general, and changed into brand new armor and military horses.

Cen Pei came to Diao Jun and invited him to mobilize manpower together to prepare for the rumor.

Diao Jun was in a bad mood and sighed after coming out.

"Stop sighing!" Cen Pei, who was standing by, was upset and stopped him, "This is a destined fate that cannot be changed by human power. It is better to stay here and make military achievements. Wouldn't it be better to return home in glory one day?"

"I am worried about Brother Shao..." Diao Jun sighed, "I don't know if he is okay alone? Will he get into trouble without me?"

"Aren't you fine by yourself?" Cen Pei advised, "Your Brother Shao should be fine and can take care of himself."

"You are not him, how do you know he can take care of himself?"

"Then you are not him either, how do you know he can't take care of himself?"

"I..." Diao Jun didn't know how to refute, and after a while, he sighed deeply again.

"Why are you sighing again?" Cen Pei frowned.

Diao Jun looked up at the sky, his eyes slightly melancholy: "I was wrongly accused and imprisoned for no reason that day, and then I was forced to join the army. I don't know if Xi'er knows? Or maybe she doesn't know at all, but thinks that I didn't keep my promise to meet her... I should have returned to Qimu Town as soon as possible and explained to her in person. But now I can't leave, and no one can help me pass on the message... Xi'er must hate me to death, what should I do?"

Cen Pei, who was standing next to him, looked at his profile with a slightly complicated expression: "It's useless to think too much, and you can't escape. It's better to focus on the things in front of you and complete the task assigned by the general! Wait until the day of triumph, I will accompany you to Qimu Town to meet your brother Shao, and... and your Xi'er!"

"Why do you want to accompany me back to Qimu Town?" Diao Jun asked doubtfully, "I felt strange before. When we were in the cave, you also said that you would either accompany me back to Qimu Town or take me back to the barracks. What's the reason?"

Cen Pei was slightly stunned, and then said: "You and I have been through life and death together, and we have a life-and-death friendship! I have no family and nowhere to go back. As brothers who have been through life and death together, can't I go to your house?"

"That's not the case..." Diao Jun scratched his head, "What you said makes some sense. On the battlefield, we lived and died together. You saved me many times, including yesterday when you pulled me out of the river. This friendship is indeed deep. You have no family, and it's actually okay if you want to go to Qimu Town with me. Brother Shao certainly doesn't mind having one more brother."

"Isn't that it?" Cen Pei smiled, "Anyway, wherever you go in the future, I will follow you, brother!"

"Okay!"
