Chapter 246 Too happy

After hearing the order, Li Rui sighed: "As a big deal is going to happen."

Pei Wei took a big sip of noodle soup and said calmly: "It's not uncommon for big things these days, but it's really uncommon for nothing."

Li Rui asked: "Then can you guess what big thing happened?"

Pei Wei said: "Maybe we have to send troops to retake Yiyang. Yiyang is the western gate of Luojing. Yiyang is lost, and the gate of Luojing is open. The court officials are afraid that they can't sleep well... Now there are only two troops that can be called fighting in Luojing, one is the 40,000 imperial guards in the hands of King Donghai, and the other is the Liangzhou soldiers in the hands of Major General Beigong. King Donghai is reluctant to use his old capital to fight the Northern Barbarians, and forcing the Major General to send troops to attack Yiyang is an inevitable choice."

Li Rui was stunned and asked, "Then... would it be very dangerous if he really wanted to send troops to attack Yiyang City?"

Pei Wei said: "Nine to death."

Li Rui: "..."

I really want to run away immediately!

When he thought of going to fight tens of thousands of Hu people to death, his head might be cut off by someone at any time, he trembled and had no other thoughts except to escape!

Unfortunately, he is in the army now, so it is not that easy to escape. Besides, Beigong Jing is not good to him, so he got him a Quhou. Now that he is going to fight, he is going to fight. It is just when he is employed, he just left him and ran away. He is a little bit heartless... After thinking about it, he decided to go to the Central Army tent first to see if he can help. At least he has nearly two thousand years of experience than Beigong Jing. When Beigong Jing encounters difficult problems, he might be able to come up with an idea!

After repaying Beigong Jing's kindness for his understanding, he would not have to be condemned by his conscience if he led people away.

After making up his mind, he finished eating the big bowl of noodles in a voracious way, and then rode straight to the central army camp with Pei Wei.

Beigong Jing in the central army tent looked cold and stared at the wooden map depicting the mountains and terrain of Luoyang. Without saying a word, he saw Li Rui and Pei Wei coming in to salute, and he just nodded, which was considered a return of the greeting. His eyes were always on the wooden map. Qingyang's eyebrows were furrowed tightly, as if he had encountered a huge problem.

Officers above the Quhou and Quhou level were constantly entering the central army tent. Most of these officers were from Liangzhou, tall, powerful, rough and bold, and several had knife and arrow wounds on their faces. Although they had been healed long ago, the boss's scars were left there, which was particularly hideous. If there were children present, they would probably cry on the spot.

Li Rui counted and found that there were fourteen Quhou in total. If we counted as five hundred people per song, there would be at least seven thousand people in Xiongershan Camp. However, this seems unlikely, because he and Pei Wei's Qu are only three hundred people. Conservatively, there are about six thousand people in Xiongershan Camp.

After everyone arrived, Beigong Jing's eyes finally moved away from the wooden picture, looked around the generals, and said in a deep voice: "I believe you all know what you have done to call you tonight."

The generals were speechless.

Beigong Jing said: "I just received the order from the Taiwei, and ordered our troops to raise all the elite troops of the three armies to counterattack Yiyang. It is necessary to repel the Northern Barbarians and recover Yiyang. Yiyang is the western gate of Luojing. If Yiyang is lost, Luojing will be completely exposed to the iron hoof of Hu horses! The emperor was worried about this and could not sleep at night. Our generals should share the worries of the emperor. Even if they are crushed to pieces, they will still take back Yiyang!"

The generals stood up suddenly and held their fists as a greeting: "Please give orders from the Major General!"

Beigong Jing said: "Everyone is going back now, and choose brave and good at fighting in the camp. Leave 300 horses to stay in each camp, and all the remaining ones will be transferred here, and at least 4,000 people will be gathered! We set out in the middle of the night and caught the Beilu off guard!"

The generals did not object at all and responded in unison: "Here!"

Looking at these colleagues, Li Rui couldn't help but feel a toothache... Boss, please wake up! This is going to die! At the foot of Xionger Mountain, on both sides of Luoshui, tens of thousands of Hu people and cavalry are waiting for you! You are really helpless in keeping them in danger and dare not act rashly, but you leave the mountain and go to the plain to confront them head-on, and they will definitely not be polite! You don't know if you have any life to come back when you go, how can you be so happy?

Just as he was muttering, Beigong Jing's eyes suddenly fell on him: "Mr. Li Qu."

Li Rui quickly responded: "Here!"

Beigong Jing said: "Take all your crossbowmen with me, I need them."

Li Rui sighed secretly, and it seemed that he could not escape, so he could only bite the bullet!

He followed everyone's gesture and saluted: "Here!"

Beigong Jing said: "In this way, everyone will go back and prepare. Remember to cook at the third update tonight, eat at the fourth update, and set off at the fifth update. Be sure to arrive at the new city before dawn!"

The generals agreed and then went back to prepare.

Li Rui and Pei Wei walked at the end, and as soon as Li Rui left the village, he began to complain: "You are such a crow's mouth!"

Pei Wei inexplicably said: "What's wrong with me?"

Li Rui said: "You said you would counterattack Yiyang this time, but you really want to counterattack Yiyang, Crow's mouth!"

Pei Wei became more and more inexplicable: "It's not natural for Yiyang to lose his land so hard that he tried his best to retake it back? The children can guess, how can I blame me for being a crow?"

Li Rui didn't plan to reason with him: "You are just a crow's mouth, that's it!"

Pei Wei had no choice but to do anything to him, so he said helplessly: "Okay, okay, I'm just a crow's mouth, okay?"

Li Rui said: "You are!"

Whether Pei Wei’s mouth seems to be unable to change the facts. Li Rui’s only thing he can do is to make preparations as much as possible. After returning to the camp, he asked the chef to take out all the flour ground during this period to make unleavened cakes without leaving any. At the same time, he also sent someone to notify the camps that if there are flour or grains that need to be processed, they can be taken over. Taking advantage of the strong wind tonight, the efficiency of the wind grinding flour will double and solve it together. Of course, it cannot be done in vain. Each camp must support some firewood, oil and salt, after all, his family is not rich.

When the camps heard that there were such good things, they were naturally happy to send flour or grains, and even brought their men to learn how to make cakes. Cooking is a very troublesome thing, especially when it requires cooking meals of hundreds or thousands of people. The workload is so great. It is said that the meals are made in the third and fourth updates may not be able to eat. If it can be made into cakes, it would be great. They don’t have to waste a lot of time to eat. After gathering the team, they can hand out a few cakes to each person, so that they can eat while walking, saving time!

So, from the evening until the third day of the night, the stone mill in the military camp never stopped, and the fire in the kitchen had not been extinguished. The prepared bread was continuously sent to the oven, baked in two or three minutes, taken out, and then put in new ones... The baked cakes were counted and then put on a carriage or carried by the chef on a shoulder pole to the camps. After the third day of the day, I finally prepared to stop working. I baked eight big cakes for each soldier who went to the war. If I had two pieces of cakes at a meal, these cakes would be enough for them to eat for two days.

The kitchen was busy, and Li Rui was not idle either. He gathered two village chiefs and six teams to arrange the battle.

Although he has never fought a war, he grew up in the military camp and knows some common sense. The tougher the battle, the more you should choose those soldiers who are full of energy and are willing to rely on the sword in your hand to fight for a future. Only such soldiers dare to fight. If you choose those soldiers who have lost their blood and have no ambitions and just want to live in a lifetime, then you will be very tired when commanding - how tired can you be to take a bunch of bear soldiers? This can be referred to Qi Jiguang when he first debuted. So without thinking, he directly called the generals of the Yang brothers: "Team A, Team B will follow me to fight."

The Yang brothers did not hesitate and immediately received the order: "Here!"

The two teams definitely have not enough people, and Li Rui turned his attention to Zhou Lan again: "Capitals Zhou, are you willing to play with me?"

It was a completely negotiating tone.

Zhou Lan is not much older than the Yang brothers. She is both twenty-two and three years old, and is also full of energy. He is the third team leader to consciously lead the whole team to practice. Seeing Li Rui asking, he hesitated for a moment and immediately saluted: "Dare you not obeying your orders!"

Seeing that everyone was very cooperative, Li Rui secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, you three teams will follow me to fight. The remaining three teams will stick to the camp and highlight my eyes. Don't let the Hu people touch it... Those Hu barbarians are more cunning than wolves, and they like to do sneak attacks the most!"

The remaining three team leaders and two camp leaders agreed.

Li Rui said: "A hundred transformed big yellow crossbows and fifty bows are all brought to these three teams! Chief Xu Tun, please let the craftsmen work harder and transform the remaining crossbows, so as not to avoid you not even have any weapons to match when the Hu people come."

When Xu Guo heard that he didn't need to go to the battle, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and said loudly: "I understand!"

Li Rui said: "You have to hurry up this matter! I took half of the manpower away, and the entire camp will be very empty. If the Hu people attack, you will rely on bows and crossbows to defend the enemy!"

Xu Guo was so proud that he replied loudly: "Here!"

Cao Hu asked: "Qu Hou, what should I do when I am the queen?"

Li Rui looked at this tall guy with a headache. This guy looked quite scary, but he was very brave. It is said that he had participated in four major wars and escaped at the last minute. Fortunately, the Jin army is extremely tight now, so he no longer dares to kill deserters casually. Otherwise, there would be no one else, otherwise his ten heads would not be enough to cut. God gave him a body as strong as a male bear, but gave him a rat courage. Such a living treasure can only be used as a potted plant to appreciate. If you really want to take him to charge in the battle? If you are not careful, he will run to you. He thought for a while and said, "Why...Cao Tun, please join me in the battle?"

Cao Hu hesitated for a moment and replied weakly: "Here!"

Li Rui said: "Then go down and prepare quickly. Let the soldiers tidy up their weapons and armor before going to bed, get up at the third day and set off at the fourth day!"
