Chapter 182

~5 min read 908 words

All they got were coarse grain cakes and a bowl of hot porridge!

While the other side was eating beef and drinking mutton soup to keep warm!

And!

They were even full!

What kind of god-like treatment was this!

Beef! Mutton soup!

Was this something ordinary commoners and ordinary soldiers could eat?

Being soldiers as well, the hundreds of soldiers who came out suddenly felt they were countless levels lower!

They did the hardest work in Huaiyincheng!

And ate worse than others!

Seeing this group of soldiers deflated, the soldiers under Lin Yang continued to crowd over!

"That's not all; isn't it cold lately? My lord was afraid we would suffer from the cold, so he specially distributed a set of brocade robes to each of us!"

As he spoke, the soldier even specifically pulled open his outer armor, revealing the brand-new cotton-padded clothes inside!

"Come, touch it, this brocade robe is really warm; I heard it's worth at least three thousand coins, dozens of shi of grain!"

Boasting, the soldier was exceptionally proud of being able to join Lin Yang's army!

He had already learned from other soldiers!

Even when serving under Tao Qian, the food they ate every day was just like that!

Being able to eat meat once a week was already considered not bad!

While they ate meat every meal!

This wonderful life was all brought to them by Lin Yang!

Therefore!

This group of people, when fighting, even if half of them were wounded or dead, still swore not to retreat!

"My god, brocade robes, and everyone gets one!"

"Damn it, why don't we have any!"

"We're soldiers too, this isn't fair!"

"Damn it, we don't even have meat soup to drink, why!"

"......"

At this moment, the hundreds of soldiers who came out were all spitting fire from their eyes!

People aren't afraid of hardship and toil!

But what people fear most is comparison!

Being soldiers as well, and selling their lives for others!

Why could others eat meat every meal, drink mutton soup, and wear brocade robes!

While they!

Had nothing!

"Alright, the things have been handed over, we're leaving first!"

After handing over the bodies in their hands, the group of soldiers headed toward their own military camp!

Watching the departing soldiers under Lin Yang, the six hundred or so soldiers who had come out were all stunned!

In their eyes, the other side's soldiers were as warm as returning home!

While the Huaiyincheng behind them was exceptionally cold!

"Sigh, let's go!"

With a sigh, the group of soldiers could only walk back helplessly!

Under the cover of night, in Lin Yang's army!

"Zhongde, I finally understand why you let me take a look in the army!"

Guo Fengxiao, who had spent the day wandering, returned and looked at his friend with a bitter smile!

He had been under Yuan Benchu!

And could be considered to have seen the elites under Yuan Benchu!

But compared to the Thread-Steel Army and the heavy-armored Iron Pagodas under Lin Yang, they were simply not worth looking at!

The thread-steel in the hands of a Thread-Steel soldier was like a divine weapon!

Unless it was a heavy weapon!

Otherwise, ordinary swords and the like would break upon contact!

As for the heavy-armored Iron Pagodas!

It also made Guo Jia understand!

Why Zhang Chao and Cao Bao had lost so miserably!

It wasn't that they were weak!

It was that Lin Yang's capital was too abundant!

He had used countless resources to smash out this kind of terrifying cavalry!

Of course!

What shocked Guo Jia the most was the food standard in Lin Yang's army!

Eating meat every meal, and including mutton soup, beef, and braised eggs!

In these chaotic times, eating beef!

If it weren't for Cheng Yu's guarantee that they hadn't slaughtered any plow oxen!

Guo Jia would have long since flicked his sleeves and left!

Slaughtering plow oxen!

This was basically a path to death!

It's just, if they didn't slaughter plow oxen, where did this beef come from?

"Zhongde, I just want to know, where do these meat products and refined iron come from?"

Yes!

Guo Jia was truly curious!

Eating meat every meal, including pork, chicken leg rice, mutton, beef, braised eggs, etc.!

The refined iron to equip the Thread-Steel Army and the heavy-armored Iron Pagodas!

These resources!

Did Lin Yang empty the imperial treasury during the Yellow Turban Rebellion?

Even though Guo Jia had the talent of a ghost and god, he couldn't figure it out!

"Fengxiao, if you defect to my lord's command, you will naturally know!"

Saying this with a light smile, Cheng Yu was unhurriedly manipulating the other party!

He didn't believe!

That after seeing these things, Guo Jia wouldn't be moved at all!

"Zhongde, I've been calculated by you!"

Pointing at Cheng Yu in front of him, Guo Jia said helplessly!

Having seen these things!

But not getting the answer!

This Cheng Yu was clearly doing it on purpose!

"Let me think about it!"

To be honest, Guo Jia was moved!

The food for the soldiers under Lin Yang was stronger than that of Yuan Benchu's elites!

Relying on such food!

Lin Yang would inevitably become a warlord in the future!

It's just!

He still needed to see what Lin Yang's character was like!

In terms of capital and strength, Guo Jia had already placed Lin Yang on the same starting line as Yuan Benchu!
