Chapter 660 Attack on Qi County
The fire of war spreads, sandstorms and dust are flying, the drums of war are like thunder, and the killing shouts are resounding throughout the world.
The county magistrate on the city wall is like a loss of his parents.
Don't it meant it was just a peasant uprising soldier? !
This strong war horse, strict military discipline, sharp long hair, and hard armor almost caught the flag of Duke Yun!
The defenders in the city were young and strong teams gathered by the county magistrates who plundered three feet of land.
They were frightened by the momentum of the enemy under the city wall, their morale was sluggish and their fighting spirit was scarce.
Fortunately, it was getting darker and the enemy did not have the idea of fighting at night, but started camping and setting up camp five hundred meters away from the city wall.
This is quite risky.
If the defenders in the county town want to conduct a night raid, they can attack the opponent's camp in just a few moments.
Unfortunately, the defenders have no fighting will. If the enemy does not attack the city, they will already be Amitabha and will never dare to think about any sneak attack at night.
Under the city wall, Mei Tang stared at the big iron pot and swallowed: "Why don't you use explosives to attack the city?"
"Burn the fire a little bigger, don't cover the lid, let the smell spread!" Yuan Niang transferred a team of soldiers to help the kitchen, and then returned to the fire. "It's so rare to explosives! Why waste it in this mere Qi County!"
The entire military camp is orderly and disciplined.
Most of the soldiers walking in the military camp were Yunzhou, and the rebel soldiers who were originally charged were used as civilians and wing soldiers.
Yang Lan, Yang Laosi and others were very dissatisfied with this, and they secretly waited to see Yuan Niang's joke.
Yuanniang brought six or seven hundred female soldiers over, and Mei Tang's five hundred Yunzhou soldiers were scattered in the rebel army, so she could only draw one hundred people and handed them over to Yuanniang for the command.
Yang Lan sneered: "Qi County is different from Yingyang County. There are many wealthy families, and they will definitely not surrender! I will see how General Yuan took Qi County with hundreds of people!"
Yang Laosi echoed: "This stinky girl is crossing the river and destroying the bridge. Let's not do anything this time, wait for her to come and beg us!"
"That's right! How powerful they are, they can't be ten!"
"It's just some girls, they really think of themselves as generals! The nostrils are facing the sky, and their eyes are growing on the top of their heads!"
The complaining sounds became less and less. By the end, no one spoke, only the sound of their stomachs roaring one after another. "Damn it, these little ladies are good at fighting or not. I don't know, but the cooking skills are really high! It smells so good that I saliva." Yuan Niang used silver or equal amounts of rice and grain to buy a batch of pigs and sheep from many people's homes.
The cooks were slaughtering pigs and sheep. The pig blood was collected and condensed into blood clots and put them in a boiling pot.
Add tofu, dried vermicelli, minced garlic, green onion and other seasonings.
After a while, the fragrance of pig blood vermicelli tofu spread along the water vapor.
In another big pot, I made a thick white soup with pork bones, which was bubbling.
The third big pot is to let the cooks show their skills.
Stir-fried pork ribs with salt and pepper, stir-fried pork shreds, diced pork in the pot, meat buns, barbecue...
This rich food was something many uprising soldiers had never seen and tasted during the Chinese New Year, and they didn't even dare to think so in their dreams. "The food is so good!" The rebel soldiers surrounded the iron pot and sucked water.
Although their eyes were almost falling into the pot, no one dared to grab them.
The fact that Brother Shu was beaten into a bloody man was too scary. In a short period of time, they dared not provoke the female general.
Fortunately, Yuan Niang didn’t plan to eat the best and hottest dishes, and her own people must be given priority.
As for the others, Yuan Niang generously distributed them to the rebel soldiers. The uprising soldiers originally revolted because they couldn't eat enough. Life was already hard. After capturing the county town, they just wanted to eat a large bowl of rice, so they felt that life was so beautiful.
They gathered in groups of three or five around the bonfire. The bonfire was shelves, and clay pots were hung on them, and the jars were divided into pig blood tofu vermicelli.
The vermicelli was stewed into the taste, with the redness of soy sauce, sucking into the mouth, full of the umami flavor of the soup.
With a bowl of big bone noodles soup, I won’t change it if the gods come!
"Actually, the female general is pretty good. We didn't let us be cannon fodder because we offended her."
"Yes, people eat Duke Yun's food and collect Duke Yun's military pay. They must do things according to the rules."
"Brother Shu is not good at doing his best. He is so good. What kind of woman can't marry him if he can be a regular soldier in Yunzhou?"
"Yes."
"Yes."
Yuan Niang didn't know that a sumptuous supper attracted a lot of people's hearts, and she was more concerned about the reaction on the walls of Qi County.
The soldiers guarding the city walls of Qi County were roaring hungry.
They squatted on the high city wall, wearing thin clothes, holding a hard vegetable cake in their hands.

The county magistrate said that as long as he is willing to join the army, he will have three meals a day, each meal, one cake and a bowl of porridge.
They looked down at the clear porridge, with all kinds of meat scents lingering in the tip of their noses, and their throats were up and down, and they kept swallowing their saliva. "It smells so good."
Someone teared the hard cakes into the porridge and pretended that they were eating meat porridge.
Unfortunately, such fantasy was quickly broken.
Because the enemy does not act like a human being!
Yuanniang sent a few soldiers with a straightforward and loud voice to call the door under the city wall.
They didn't say anything else, they just reported the recipe.
"Steamed lamb, steamed bear's paw, steamed deer tail, roasted flower duck, roasted chicks, roasted geese, braised pig, braised duck, sauce chicken, bacon, pine flower belly, dried meat, sausage, assorted Su Paner..."
After talking back and forth several times, the guards couldn't help it, poked their heads out of the city wall and cursed angrily. "If you are suffering from plague, you dare to greed for me. Do you believe it or not and urinate on your head?"
The person who reported the recipe ignored it and the voice became louder.
The soldiers guarding the city went crazy: "Are you finished? What's the use of reporting these? I can't eat them!"
The person who reported the recipe responded, and smiled and said, "Who said he couldn't eat them? As long as he could achieve first-class merit, he would be rewarded with a big fat pig, a second-class merit, a fat sheep, a third-class merit, and a pig's legs!"
"We are both hostile sides, where can I make contributions? Cut my own head to you?"
The person who reported the recipe said with some advice: "You are so stupid. Of course you can't cut your own head, but you can cut someone else's!"
After he finished speaking, he ran back to the barracks.
I didn't know that because of his words, the atmosphere on the city wall suddenly changed drastically.
Someone covered his neck and looked at the comrade beside him vigilantly: "What are you looking at? What do you want to do?!"
The comrade retracted his gaze guiltily, but various recipes of [steamed lamb, steamed bear's paw] filled his mind.
He couldn't control his eyes and looked at others, and he rewarded a fat pig with his first-class merit!
The county magistrate who received the news hurriedly ran to the city wall, intending to cheer everyone up: "This is a conspiracy! Don't believe them!"
In the dark night, the guards' eyes were green, like wolves, staring at the county magistrate.
