The Aroma Smelled, Everyone Ran to the Riverside to Look!
Huang An cursed.
He was the highest-ranking officer of this army, so he should enjoy the best treatment.
Now that he smelled the meat, he felt that someone must have been secretly eating good food. This was not strange. There were always some prey around the village. Most of this army was the prefectural army that was about to apply for a title.
His strength was already infinitely close to the Imperial Army.
With weapons and bows in his hands, if he was lucky, it would not be a problem for him to catch some rabbits.
But f * ck, even if he caught it, he should have brought it over for him to enjoy first.
Who was the one who ate the food behind his back?
However, when Huang An asked about it, the people squatting at Ganfan were stunned and did not have much of a reaction.
After a long while, someone finally spoke.
"Sir, no one eats good meat."
"Everyone is eating boiled pancakes.”
"There really isn't!"
……
Everyone said so, including He Tao, Zhu Tong, and Lei Heng.
Huang An was stunned.
Could it be that he had smelled wrongly?
However, the fragrance just now was so clear. It shouldn't be wrong.
He immediately sent his personal guards to search, but they found nothing.
"It seems like it really is an illusion."
"I guess it's because my mouth has been too bland these past few days.”
Huang An consoled himself. Then, from the time everyone finished eating until the end, the fragrance did not waft over.
He arranged for people to patrol at night. Huang An naturally slept in the best room in the village. The next morning, which was also his eighth day here, the sun rose from the east, indicating that the weather had completely improved.
It was just that the wind that was commonly seen after the rain was rather biting cold. In this late autumn, it whistled and whistled.
In the low-lying area, there was still thick fog that could not be dispersed.
Huang Anxian brought his men to the river at the head of the village as usual. After a few days of heavy rain, the water level of the river at the head of the village had increased drastically. The river surface, which was originally about ten feet wide, suddenly expanded to more than twenty feet. The water level was also extremely fierce. It washed down with a crashing sound, and it had an aura that could swallow the world.
This made Huang An depressed again.
Their army's rations, including today's, were only enough for three days.
However, the small stream in front of him had become a big river blocking his way.
How could he go to Liangshan?
"Milord, don't be anxious." "This kind of river has many tributaries flowing into it due to the heavy rain, which is why it will surge in a short period of time," Zhu Tong said.”
"But once the rain stops, it will return to normal in a short period of time.”
"If I am not wrong, tomorrow night, at most the morning after tomorrow, this Stronghold Head River will return to its original state.”
"When the time comes, the shallowest part of it will only be half a person deep.”
"We can cross the river or build some simple wooden bridges.”
In the past few days, Huang An had a good impression of Zhu Tong, and he was willing to accept Zhu Tong's suggestions. He was excited and said,"Alright, since that's the case, let our brothers rest up today. The day after tomorrow, we will fight to the death with the Liangshan bandits!”
He Tao immediately smiled." Your Excellency, you're too kind. I believe that the bandits of Liangshan now can't even eat grass and tree bark. How can they still have the strength to fight?"”
"When the water falls, we can just raise our sabers and kill them!”
Everyone burst into laughter. Only Zhu Tong felt that something was amiss.
However, he could not figure out why.
According to his past experience, the bandits 'logistics were always very poor. It would be better if they stayed in the village, but if the two armies were to fight, the bandits' logistics would be useless.
After laughing for a while, everyone returned to Zhaitou Village.
Several leaders had already begun to make arrangements for the battle the day after tomorrow.
Soon, breakfast was served.
Countless soldiers gathered over for breakfast.
However, although everyone was hungry, it was really difficult for them to swallow this breakfast.
Originally, the military rations for marching were bland and tasteless. They could only satisfy their hunger. Now that there was no vinegar cloth and salt cloth, the taste faded even more.
Especially the salt cloth.
The human body had a very high demand for salt. If one did not eat salt for many days, serious physical problems would occur. The soldiers only had a few meals, so it was not to the extent that it would happen. However, this boiled pancake, which was cooked into a congee, was really…tasteless.
Huang An was actually a rather capable general. He could tell at a glance that the morale of the soldiers was low.
This was not a good thing.
He had his own ideas. He knocked on the wooden board a few times and attracted everyone's attention. Then, he said loudly,"I know. These few days, all of our brothers have been talking nonsense. Everyone is having a hard time.”
"However, think about the Liangshan Army on the other side!”
"Their situation is much more difficult than ours. Their army has probably collapsed!”
"Therefore, everyone can hold on for another two days. The day after tomorrow, the Liangshan army will definitely collapse!”
"When the time comes, we can drive straight in and get everything we want.”
"The grievances you suffered today will be enjoyed a hundred times in the future!”
After Huang An finished speaking, countless people's eyes lit up.
In this chaotic world, too many people were able to survive because of that faint hope.
Only with hope would one have determination.
Moreover, their many experiences in raiding had convinced them that everything was as Huang An had said.
This caused many people to become excited. They started to eat the bland food.
However, right at this moment, a gust of wind and a rich fragrance of meat drifted over.
Huang An's nose was much more sensitive than the average person's. After sniffing hard, he immediately said,"This is the smell. I smelled it last night.”
"Who is it? Who is secretly eating behind my back?"
No one answered, but this time, the fragrance was quite strong. There were too many people who smelled it. Everyone looked around and asked each other.
"It smells so good. This is the smell of meat.”
"It smells so good that my saliva is flowing out.”
"Who's stealing it?"
……
After a moment of confusion, someone suddenly shouted,"This fragrance is good. It seems to be coming from the other side of the river.”
Hmm?
Huang An couldn't sit still anymore and immediately led his men over.
The breeze happened to be blowing from the other side of the river, so the more they walked, the stronger the fragrance they smelled. When they reached the other side of the river, although they could not see through the thick fog, the fragrance was clearly in their noses.
"Is Liangshan cooking?"
"There's still meat?"
"Shouldn't they be out of food?"
Huang An was stunned.
