Xiao Jingzhou did not stay at the banquet for too long. He told Yang Jin not to let the soldiers drink too much and left Lu Chen at the table to celebrate.
So he went up to the city gate alone, carrying a food box and holding a wooden bowl.
He opened the food box, took out a pot of glutinous rice wine and took a sip, then whispered to the bright moon: "Miss Jiang, it's great to have you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the voice from the wooden bowl.
Jiang Zhenyu came out of the bathroom in her bathrobe and heard the sound of a wooden bowl from afar.
She wiped the water from her hair with a towel, and the sound from the wooden bowl stopped.
"Xiao Jingzhou, what did you say just now?"
Xiao Jingzhou didn't expect that Jiang Zhenyu could hear what he said.
Suddenly, he started coughing violently.
Fortunately, there was not much alcohol in his throat, so it did not make him feel too uncomfortable.
...
...
But his face, and even the back of his neck, began to turn red.
He said, "Nothing. Jingzhou and the soldiers are extremely grateful to the young lady for rewarding the three armies."
Jiang Zhenyu breathed a sigh of relief after hearing what he said.
"I was so scared. I thought the Chibei Army was coming again."
Xiao Jingzhou didn't expect that his words would scare Jiang Zhenyu, and a look of guilt slowly appeared on his face.
Jiang Zhenyu couldn't see his expression, so she asked with a smile, "Is the pickled cabbage stewed with pork belly delicious?"
"tasty!"
Jiang Zhenyu: "I'm a little hungry, how about you make some for me to try?"
Xiao Jingzhou was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect her to make such a small request.
He hurriedly passed the meat in the lunch box over.
"Too much! Too much!"
"I'll just try two pieces. Eating too much at night will make you gain weight."
Another bowl of meat was brought over.
“It’s delicious!”
"When winter is over, I will send you piglets and help Zhiyi City develop its breeding industry."
Xiao Jingzhou felt inexplicably good as he listened to her mumbling.
The appetite is also inexplicably strong.
As the two were talking, Xiao Jingzhou ate up all the wine, meat, and even the peanuts in his lunch box.
…
The next day.
Jiang Zhenyu got up early and called the owner of the horse farm.
She didn't know how to raise horses, so she asked the owner of the stable to prepare the feed for her.
When the owner of the stable heard that she had 5,000 strong horses, he was so envious that he could not express it in words.
"Ms. Jiang, you have more horses on your ranch than I do!"
"Don't worry, I will definitely prepare the right feed for you. Five thousand horses have a lot of feed, and the price is negotiable!"
The two finalized the required quantity and the quotation.
Jiang Zhenyu was thinking about the horse from Zhiyi City and waiting for dinner.
She bought the horse farm's stored grain and asked the farm owner to deliver it to the logistics park first.
He also specifically instructed the owner of the horse farm to arrange the follow-up feed as soon as possible.
The owner of the horse farm didn't understand why the goods were sent to the logistics park instead of directly to the horse farm.
Jiang Zhenyu didn't give him time to wonder and quickly hung up the phone.
…
“Hurry, hurry, hurry!”
"Behave yourself!"
"If you dare to escape or cause trouble, you will be shot on the spot!"
Before the Chibei Army went to the battlefield, they had only eaten grass roots and tree bark, which were not enough to fill their stomachs.
Last night in the military camp, I smelled the aroma of meat again. My stomach started to rebel and kept growling.
The Chibei prisoners were driven out of the military camp prison early in the morning.
"Line up, everyone line up!"
"Deputy General Ba, there seems to be a pot in front?"
"Da Jing treats prisoners so well? Not only does he not kill them, but he also feeds them?"
Baturu had hesitation in his eyes as he stared at the big pot in front of him.
"Open your mouth!"
Baturu opened his mouth reluctantly.
The next moment, he felt something stuffed in his mouth.
Scalding, burning.
It feels like needles prickling the tongue densely.
He covered his mouth, his Adam's apple rolled, his eyes widened, and he said in disbelief:
"Damn Dajingren, what did you give me to eat!?"
Chen Gan pretended to be proud: "Of course it's poison!"
“This is a poison bestowed by the gods, and there is no divine elixir to detoxify it.
You will surely have abdominal pain and die suddenly! ”
Baturu's eyes widened with hatred, he clenched his fists, and wanted to pounce on Chen Gan.
Fortunately, the personal soldiers around him were afraid that he would impulsively drag him hard, so they prevented him from causing any disaster.
Baturu's face turned red from the burns in his mouth, and sweat began to appear on the tip of his nose and forehead.
He pointed at Chen Gan and said, “When two armies go to war, they don’t kill prisoners.
This is the old covenant established by your Great Jing Kingdom.
How dare you disobey the orders of your monarch! ”
Chen Gan's eyes were sharp: "You slaughtered the cities of the Eastern Zhou Kingdom and looted children and women for food. Why don't you think about the day when you will be captured?"
Baturu's pupils dilated, and he was obviously frightened: "No, I didn't, that was the order from General Hu Riwei.
People like us don’t have a chance to eat at all. ”
Chen Gan exposed his fig leaf: "Is it because you don't have a chance to eat, or do you not want to eat?"
When people are extremely hungry, it is not uncommon for them to exchange their children for food in Zhiyi City.
Survival is difficult and human nature is the most immeasurable.
Upon hearing this, Baturu took several steps back and was supported by the soldiers behind him, preventing him from falling to the ground in front of Chen Gan.
Chen Gan shouted, "Look carefully, this pot is full of poison.
If there is no antidote within three days, you will die of abdominal pain.
If you are not sincere in your worship of the gods and have ill intentions towards Da Jing, the gods will punish you and make you suffer from endless abdominal pain. ”
The Chibei soldier, who had just swallowed the "poison", heard that his life was in danger and wanted to reach his hand into his mouth to take out the poison.
"Deputy General Ba, what should we do?"
Baturu said angrily: "How should I know!"
Those who had swallowed the poison didn't know what to do. These soldiers who hadn't swallowed the poison were even more excited and afraid of death than he was.
What a disgrace to the Chibei Army!
Chen Gan looked at the frightened faces of the Chibei Army and felt that the effect had almost been achieved.
He said: “The gods love their people like their own children, even if you are the Red North barbarians.
If you have good intentions, the gods will give you a chance to mend your ways. ”
When the Chibei Army heard that they were saved, those who were originally unsteady began to defect.
"We will change! We must change!"
Those who turned against their own side were stubborn and stuck to their guns, looking as if they were ready to take life and death for granted.
Chen Gan didn't tolerate it either. He gave Qi Hou a look and stuffed another bite into these people's mouths.
The burning sensation in their mouths made their scalps numb, and hot sweat broke out from their foreheads and slid down their rough faces to the ground.
Now those who still had disloyalty suddenly became obedient.
Chen Gan said: "Those who have taken the medicine can get a bowl of porridge.
After drinking, go out of the city to clean up the battlefield. The porridge is limited, first come first served! ”
The Chibei Army, who were originally hesitant, became eager to try it when they heard that there was porridge to drink and that the quantity was limited.
Even the brave ones started to line up first.
"Death sooner or later, death is always death!"
"I'll do it! Give me poison! I want porridge!"
"And me! And me!"
Chen Gan used a spoon to knock on the edge of the pot and said with a stern face: "Queue up!"
Upon hearing this, the Chibei Army began to line up in an orderly manner, eating the "poison" with a fearless attitude and happily receiving the porridge.
Xiao Jingzhou stood on the city gate, looking down at what was happening below.
Lu Chen said happily: "This move of God is really wonderful!"
“The people of Zhiyi City have a bland taste and don’t like spicy food.
I thought the chili sauce in the granary was going to be wasted.
I didn't expect it to come in handy here! ”
He couldn't help laughing when he thought of the reactions of Baturu and Chibei prisoners.
Xiao Jingzhou instructed: "Let them out of the city today, and make sure to keep a close eye on them.
We can't let anyone escape and inform Chibei! ”
Lu Chen put away his smile and said seriously, "Yes! I will go and tell General Yang and the others right away."
