Chapter 161

~6 min read 1,060 words

Addressing the system in his mind, in the next moment, eighty million reputation points were instantly consumed!

At the same time, the exchanged supplies appeared in his storage space!

Looking at the meat he had exchanged for this time!

Lin Yang's heart was bleeding!

When he fought Zhang Chao last time!

He had never been this extravagant!

Last time, it was at most pork, plus a very small amount of beef!

"Hoo, to make the sheep run, one must let the sheep eat their fill!"

Taking a deep breath, Lin Yang said this aloud!

He knew deeply!

The strength of the soldiers' combat capability depended on their food!

If they eat well, their combat power will naturally be strong!

"Pass the order down: starting from today, the entire army's food rations will be improved!"

He gave the order to the soldiers beside him, and the latter was stunned for a moment before turning to pass the order!

A long moment later, in the open space of the camp

"What do you think we're eating this time?"

"It must be chicken leg rice, and the meat wontons are also delicious!"

"Not necessarily. I'm a veteran; when we fought Zhang Chao last time, my lord gave us an extra meal!"

"Really? What did you eat? It wouldn't be chunks of meat, would it?"

"That's right, just pure chunks of meat. Those pieces of braised pork were simply delicious!"

"Oh my god, I hope we can eat that this time too!"

"........."

The soldiers all sat together, discussing the food for this time!

As soldiers in Lin Yang's army, they trained hard every day!

The training volume alone was more than half again that of ordinary soldiers!

However, although they trained hard, they had no complaints at all!

The reason was none other than this!

It was because their food was simply too good!

In Lin Yang's army, ordinary soldiers had three meals a day!

Morning: white porridge, pickled mustard greens, steamed buns, marinated eggs, and meat sausages, all you can eat!

Noon: chicken leg rice, beef noodles, and wontons, all you can eat!

Evening: dumplings, chicken leg rice, marinated eggs, instant noodles, and so on!

All of these were provided in unlimited quantities!

Every meal had meat!

Lin Yang even allowed the soldiers to take some things, like marinated eggs and steamed buns, home to their families!

Their families were also allocated some reclaimed wasteland!

They had planted new rice seeds!

It could be said that once one person joined the army, the whole family had no worries about food or drink!

Under such circumstances, the soldiers under Lin Yang were all extremely hardworking and trained with extra diligence!

"My lord has ordered that starting from today, we will have extra meals!"

Following the soldiers' transmission of the order, the crowd that had been discussing it all had their expressions tighten!

Especially the veterans, who became even more excited!

"Haha, extra meals! We have meat to eat this time!"

"We can eat our fill this time!"

"Yes, this time it's not just chicken legs; this time it's real meat!"

"Don't fight me for it, let me go first!"

"........"

The soldiers gathered around, sitting and waiting for the extra meal to come out!

Before long, a rich aroma of meat wafted out from the kitchen, echoing in the air!

Smelling the scent of the meat, the soldiers all drooled!

Although everyone ate meat every meal!

It was usually just chicken legs and the chunks of meat in the beef noodles!

It was impossible to really eat their fill of meat!

Only in wartime could it be like this!

As the aroma filled the air, in the main tent on the other side, Cheng Yu, who was still planning, couldn't help but smile bitterly as he smelled the drifting fragrance!

"My lord is adding extra meals again!"

Cheng Yu was all too familiar with this kind of meat aroma!

"Zilong, come here and listen; I will leave this matter to you to handle!"

Seeming to have thought of something, Cheng Yu gave instructions to Zhao Yun!

Hearing Cheng Yu's words, a smile also appeared on Zhao Yun's face!

"Military advisor, rest assured, I will definitely complete the task!"

He bowed and then hurried away!

A long moment later, as the meat was taken out of the pots in Lin Yang's camp, countless people were stunned as they looked at the meat for this extra meal!

"Oh my god, it really is braised pork, and there's mutton soup too!"

"Wait, what's this over here? There's actually beef!"

"There's actually beef this time, and such large chunks of beef at that!"

"Wuwuwu, my lord is too good to us!"

"I never thought I'd be able to eat beef in this lifetime; I want to die for my lord!"

"......."

The soldiers were boiling with excitement as they looked at this extra meal!

Especially the newly recruited soldiers and the previous surrendered troops!

Seeing this kind of extra meal, they all drooled!

This was simply not something people like them could ever eat!

Just the beef alone!

Apart from wealthy merchants and noble families, who could eat beef!

For a time, the recognition and gratitude in everyone's hearts toward Lin Yang grew even more intense!

And while Lin Yang's side was starting their meal, on the city walls of Huaiyin on the other side, the defending soldiers were equally hungry!

However!

They had to wait for others to finish eating before they could come to relieve them!

"Eh, there's movement!"

Just at this moment, they saw hundreds of people riding out from Lin Yang's camp, seemingly carrying something behind them!

Approaching to within one kilometer of Huaiyin City, the group stopped directly!

Then, one of the small soldiers shouted loudly toward the people of Huaiyin City!

"Brothers of Huaiyin City, my lord sees that you are suffering while eating coarse grain cakes!"

"He has specially sent you mutton soup and braised pork chunks to taste!"

The shouting echoed, and the soldiers on the city wall were instantly stunned!

What does this mean?

But the next moment, they saw the small soldier below continue to shout!

"If you think it's delicious, you might as well defect to my lord!"

"In our army, we eat four meals a day, meat at every meal, and we eat our fill!"
