Chapter 206 Going to the military camp to see my wife
I have been in Xiongzhou for more than two months, which is not a long time, but Qin Guan has done a lot.
Song Ke, the king of Xiong'an County, secretly received Song Ke's tens of millions of wealth, resettled tens of thousands of victims, built an army of tens of thousands of people, purged the officialdom of Xiongzhou, and eliminated mountain bandits and horse bandits in Xiongzhou. He earned a great reputation and received many awards.
A good treasure.
Today, Qin Guan has completely established his prestige in Xiongzhou, and it can be said that Xiongzhou's military, political and financial affairs are completely in his hands.
Qin Guan finally had time to do other things.
He was going to go to the military camp to take a look.
After all, he is also the commander-in-chief of both the Xin'an Army and the Baode Army.
And Han Yuqing is also there. Although that girl looks fierce, we are men and we don’t care about little girls. We always go to see how she is doing now.
Xiong Da was called and asked: "Do the Xin'an Army and the Baode Army have offices in Xiongzhou?"
Xiong Da replied: "Yes, Xiongzhou is the transfer point for military supplies between the two armies. There is a standing army granary in Xiongzhou, and the army cannot only eat grain. Vegetables and meat are all purchased in our Xiongzhou."
Qin Dian nodded and suddenly asked: "Why haven't I seen Xiong Er for two days?"
Xiong Da chuckled, "That kid is pestering Huang Luanfeng all day long. Yesterday he took the newly joined cavalry for training. He is probably still out and about now."
Qin Guan became interested and asked, "Do you think he and Huang Luanfeng have any drama?"
"A good girl is afraid of stalking a man, and the second son is not stupid, and the two of them are together all the time, so they probably won't be able to win for a long time, but I think, even if they get married in the future, the second son will still be afraid of his wife, so then
Huang Luanfeng is not so easy to convince." Xiong Dada.
"Aren't you happy?" Qin looked at Xiong Da.
Xiong Da shook his head, "My mother was also in charge of my father back then. She was the leader inside and outside. It's not a bad thing to have a strong daughter-in-law. The second brother actually has a wild streak, so I can rest assured that someone is taking care of him."
"You are now the eldest child, and the second child already has someone he likes. What kind of person do you want to find?" Qin Guan was concerned about Xiong Da.
"Hey, I still want to find someone who is honest and obedient. A lady among us is the best." Xiong Dadao.
Qin Guan laughed and scolded: "I guess you are handing over Xiong Er to a powerful woman so that you can rest assured, and then you can find a docile daughter-in-law to live with."
Xiong Da patted his big head and said, "There's no way, he can choose the second one by himself."
Hahahaha, the two of them laughed.
The next day, Qin Guan came to inspect the military granary. The military granary was not originally under the responsibility of local officials, but Qin Guan had the status of commander-in-chief of the army and was absolutely in charge of these things.
How could the military academy in charge of the granary dare to neglect and led everyone to line up to greet him? Qin Guan walked around and asked about some information. He found that the food here only filled one-fifth of the granary, and asked: "Why is the food so...
No, it’s always been like this.”
The military academy immediately replied: "I am reporting to Commander-in-Chief Jun, the price of old grain is high and the new grain has not arrived yet, so there is less grain in the warehouse. We eat now and buy it now, leaving only half a month for turnover. This can save some money and wait for the new grain."
When grain comes out, the price will drop a lot, so we will buy it in large quantities and store grain for winter."
"How long will this food be enough to feed the two armies now?"
"About half a month."
Qin Guan frowned. He only had half a month's worth of food in reserve. If a war broke out, this amount of food would definitely not be available.
However, the military department also has such regulations to save money, and it has nothing to do with these warehouse management military schools.
"How many days do you send food to the army?" Qin Guan asked.
"Once every ten days."
"How is the food for the border troops?"
The military academy hesitated for a while and then muttered: "The food is enough, but vegetables are too expensive. I usually eat pickles and sauces."
"As for meat, we have a meat dish about once every half month. Everyone can have a mouthful of broth, and it would be good if they can get two slices of meat one finger wide."
As he spoke, he made some gestures with his fingers.
Qin Guan sighed in his heart. The Royal Guards received the best treatment, both in terms of equipment and food. The Forbidden Army came second, but it was still acceptable. The Border Army was the hardest, most tiring, and most dangerous. They could participate in battle at any time. Their treatment was
But it's the worst.
After leaving the military granary, Qin Guan told Xiong Da: "I am going to inspect the border army. Then I will bring all the people from the Xiang army with me. Since the bandits were eliminated, I found that they are all a little swollen, so I can let them go."
Let these guys see what a real army is."
"There are no restrictions on buying vegetables and meat, cattle, sheep, pigs, chickens, ducks and geese. It must be enough for at least 30,000 people to eat several meals." After a pause, Qin Guan said again: "By the way, buy a few more carts of drinks and bring them over.
.”
"We will set off in three days and go to Xin'an Army first."
Xiong Da quickly responded.
Three days later,
Qin Guan put on a bright silver light armor, immediately hung the Overlord's big gun, and put a sword on his waist. He looked very mighty.
When he came outside the city with his guards, he was stunned by the scene outside the city.
I saw tens of thousands of troops. Some of the soldiers were leading cattle and sheep, some were holding fat pigs, some were holding chickens and ducks, and some were grabbing geese. There were dozens of carts next to them, filled with things.
.
Qin Guan pointed at Xiong Da and then at the soldiers.
Xiong Dahan smiled naively: "Master, didn't you say you should bring more with you? It's my first time to go to Xin'an Army, so it's not appropriate to bring less, so I prepared more."
"How much did it cost?"
"Hehe, more than 10,000 strings."
"Where did you get the money?" Qin Guan asked.
"Given by Mrs. Luo."
Qin Guan told him to buy more, but he didn't expect him to buy so much.
Xiong Da is not stupid. When he went to Xin'an Army this time, he was going to meet the young master's father-in-law, and the future eldest wife was still there, so she couldn't lower the price for the young master. He was a good buy.
Qin Dian nodded, "Well done."
The team set off, with the cavalry taking the lead and clearing the way in front. Now that Huang Luanfeng and the others have joined, the horses are enough anyway, and the cavalry has been brought together to 2,000. As for combat effectiveness, let's train slowly.
Qin Guan discovered that now Xiong Er and Huang Luanfeng were riding horses side by side, and Huang Luanfeng was not as angry as before. It seemed that the two of them had really become a couple.
Xiongju City is about 120 miles away from Tuncheng, where the Xin'an Army is stationed. If we follow the normal speed, we can get there in one and a half days, but now that we have cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks, it obviously slows down the speed.
early morning,
The Xin'an Army stormed out of the city with hundreds of cavalry. The leader was a middle-aged man with a short beard, wearing a steel helmet and armor. A spear was hung on the horse. His face was very serious. He sat on the horse without moving his upper body.
Shake it, and follow the ups and downs of the horse running, and you will see that it is a strong warrior on the horse.
Next to him was a man wearing a plain official uniform, but his face was white and beardless.
Behind him is a young man, about twenty years old, with a very handsome appearance, but holding the rein with one hand.
But next to the young man, there was a female general with a curvy figure wearing bright silver armor. Her crimson cloak fluttered in the wind as the horse galloped. She had slender eyebrows and phoenix eyes, and her skin was a healthy wheat color. She had a silver handle.
