He waved his hands excitedly: "Go, go to the handsome tent."
When they came to the handsome tent, everyone sat down, and Zhao Hao asked, "Ashu, how much meat did you bring this time?"
Ah Shu quickly replied, "About 100 million catties."
This amount sounds a bit much, but in fact, it simply cannot withstand consumption.
You know, the elite of the Haotian Department are all strong men and women with strength exceeding a thousand catties. They have great strength and eat a lot. After a meal, they need at least five catties of meat. Ten catties.
That is to say, the 100 fine riders of the Haotian Department alone have to consume nearly [-] catties of meat in a day, or [-] million catties, which is only half a month's worth.
If the meat brought by the other six battalions is included, it is estimated that there will be more than one month to eat.
Zhao Hao roughly estimated, and then ordered: "Ashu, wait a minute, you first allocate 30 catties of meat to Nanjiang."
Ah Shu cupped his hands without hesitation and said, "Of order, Chief."
Zhao Hao then ordered: "Nanjiang, tomorrow you will take two thousand young men to lobby the surrounding tribes, is one month enough?"
Wu Nanjiang just made a little guess, then shook his head and said, "I'm afraid one month is not enough. Some tribes are relatively remote, and it takes more than a month to make a round trip. I guess it will take at least two months."
Two months will not delay the matter, because the road leading to Tumeng's garrison will take almost two months to repair.
Zhao Hao nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay, tomorrow you will start with a month's worth of meat, and next month, you will bring someone back to get the meat."
Immediately afterwards, he gave another order: "Ah Shu, you will take your men and horses to hunt on the grassland tomorrow, Ji Wei, you follow to help. Remember, don't worry about the wild horses for now, only hunt bison and wild sheep. , if you encounter a pack of wild wolves, don’t be too polite, kill them all for meat, don’t keep any of them.”
Ah!
Ji Wei, who was sitting cross-legged and doing nothing, missed jumping up from the ground by mistake.
He really didn't expect that Zhao Hao would assign him a task.
These few days, he has been suffocated. In Nanjiangbu, there is almost no prey within a radius of ten miles, and he can't go too far, so he is almost in the jungle around Nanjiangbu these few days. Wandering around here is boring to death.
Now it's all right, I finally have something to do, go hunting on the grassland, okay!
He just wanted to go hunting on the grassland, but Zhao Hao didn't give the order, so he didn't dare to go. After all, he was marching and fighting at the moment, and he knew the importance of military discipline.
Zhao Hao didn't bother about Ji Wei who was rubbing his hands in excitement, he scanned the rest of the generals, and then ordered: "Ashan, Alin, Afeng, Axing, tomorrow, you will bring your subordinates to the We will build a bridge where we just landed, the width of the bridge must be more than ten steps, and guardrails must be added on both sides to prevent the carriage from overturning, understand?"
Ah Shan, Ah Lin, Ah Feng, and Ah Xing hurriedly clasped their hands together and said, "I obey the chief."
Zhao Hao thought for a while, and finally raised his hand and said: "Ru Shuang, you will stay in the camp with Ah Hua and Ah Huo for these two days, that's enough, let's leave."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Wei jumped up from the ground, rushed to Ah Shu, took Ah Shu's arm, and said impatiently, "General Shu, when are we going to leave? Or, let's go now." ?”
Ah Shu is so helpless, of course he knows what kind of virtue this guy is.
He also knew why Zhao Hao asked this guy to help him hunt on the grassland.
Because this guy has magic weapons, but he doesn't, if you encounter a more powerful alien beast or even something close to a mythical beast, with this guy, it will be much easier to solve it.
He thought for a while, then nodded and said: "Okay, you go and tidy up, I will also let the men and horses prepare for it, and we will set off later."
It's better to go early, but they are not familiar with the northern part of the grassland. They have to send people to search for wild cattle, wild sheep and so on.
Chapter 246
Wu Nanjiang led two thousand young men under his command and ran like a pack of wolves in the wild jungle. Wherever he passed, the birds and animals were frightened out of their nests and ran around. The whole jungle was like a frying pan, and it was very lively .
If it was normal, he would definitely ask his subordinates to go hunting quickly. After all, meat is hard to come by. Even in a large tribe like the Nanjiang tribe, the clansmen would sometimes go hungry.
However, at this time, he had no intention of stopping his young men at all.
Because they already had enough meat, they didn't need to hunt at all, and the clansmen who stayed in the tribe didn't need to be cared about by others, they were taken care of by Haotian.
His task now is to convince all the tribes in the south as quickly as possible, and then cooperate with the leader of Haotian to besiege the tribes around Tumeng's station.
Originally, they were not so fast when they walked through the wild jungle, because everyone had to carry dozens of catties of food on their backs, and it was difficult to walk in the wild jungle, so it was considered good for them to maintain a normal walking speed.
However, this time, they didn't need to carry food, because he borrowed hundreds of horses from the leader of Haotian.
Although these steeds cannot be ridden in the wild jungle, it is no problem to tie food to their backs and lead them to walk quickly.
With the help of these steeds, their speed was more than doubled. Originally, it would take at least seven or eight days for him to take his men to the Yanhui Department, which was more than 100 miles away, but now it took less than four days. Department is almost here.
The reason why he chose the Yanhui tribe was because the Yanhui tribe was also a large tribe. In the entire western wing of the Xueman tribe, the Yanhui tribe could rank among the top three.
There are more than 5000 people in this Yanhui tribe, and its leader, Shahe, is quite famous in the west wing of the entire Xueman tribe. If he can persuade Shahe to help him surrender to other tribes, then the leader of Haotian will hand in hand. The task given to him is much simpler, perhaps, it can really be completed in a month.
I just don't know if this stubborn old man knows the current affairs.
He led the team and ran for a while, and he could already see the shadow of a high mountain in front of him. He looked up at the sky, and then decisively raised his hand and said loudly: "Stop, everyone find some firewood and cook on the spot , wait until you are full before leaving."
It's almost noon now, and after bypassing the high mountain in front of us, the geese will return to the Ministry. There is still plenty of time, so there is no need to hurry.
Hearing the words, all the young and strong showed happy faces, slowed down their pace, and spread out, fetching meat, looking for water, looking for firewood, and setting up clay pots, they were extremely busy.
They still have two meals a day at the moment, and most of the day has passed since last night, and everyone is already starving.
Soon, scattered bonfires lit up in the jungle, hundreds of wisps of smoke rose up, and the entire wild jungle seemed to be on fire.
The "thick smoke" here naturally quickly attracted the attention of the Yanhui Department, and the nearby hunting teams of the Yanhui Department stopped what they were doing and rushed over here quickly.
It's not far from the settlement of the Yanhui tribe. If a fire really breaks out, it will be terrible, and it is very likely that it will burn all the way to their settlement.
They wanted to run over to put out the fire, but they didn't expect that when they ran over, they saw that there were people everywhere in the wild jungle, in groups of three and in groups of five, they couldn't count them all.
What is going on here?
The hunting team who rushed over were all frightened.
These people are not ordinary people. If you look closely, you can tell that they are all young and strong!
So many young and strong people suddenly appeared near their Yanhui department, can they not be afraid?
Everyone was so frightened that the cat hid behind a tree in the jungle, not daring to take a breath.
How to do it?
Fortunately, Shahe, the leader of the Yanhui tribe, was also hunting not far away.
Not long after, he rushed over with more than a hundred young men.
He was not intimidated, because he knew very well that no tribe dared to attack other tribes at this moment.
Just kidding, everyone is a tribe under Xue Man's tribe. If there is a fight in private, it would be strange if Tu Meng didn't deal with them.
