After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields Chapter 151

Transporting food is not a simple job.

This is a large-scale mobilization, which requires the mobilization of tens of thousands of manpower and material resources.

If you want to transport a hundred tons of grain to the border, you must first include the consumption of cattle, horses, and civilians during the transportation.

In total, for every one hundred dans of grain sent to the border, at least 500 dans need to be prepared in advance.

If you want to transport 10,000 dans of grain to the border, you need to prepare at least 50,000 dans of grain.

The grain transport team is composed of a team of twenty vehicles. It is led by an officer and a soldier, and ten soldiers are responsible for escorting and ordering.

Each cart is equipped with six men, one horseman, one tail rider, and two guards on the left and right sides.

Even so, I was unlucky enough to encounter a spring from a ravine today, and I only had time to fill two bamboo tubes.

As for Shangguan Lie and the ten soldiers, they had already gone to rest in the lobby of the post house.

It has been sunny since the day we set out.

But when the heavy rain fell, everyone realized that they were naive.

In Liu Ji's memory, this rain was the heaviest he had ever seen in his life.

If Liu Ji hadn't reacted very quickly, his back would have been beaten to pieces just like the second-to-last civilian husband behind him.

Hence, the six people must unite and protect their own cart of food to ensure their own safety.

As soon as the rain fell, there was a rush in the team.

At least he can still stay next to the grain truck, with a straw shed above his head to provide some protection from the wind and rain.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier. At first, everyone just felt cool and happy, but not long after they started walking, the road surface was soaked by the rainwater, and in an instant it became muddy.

The wheels of the carriage carrying the heavy grain sank deeply into the mud. Previously, I could just follow the carriage, but now I have to push it.

As for Qin Yao, who reported his name to the conscription order, was he afraid, guilty, and angry? I don't dare at all!

Liu Ji licked his lips, which were so dry. He took off the bamboo tube on his waist to take a drink of water. He was shocked to find that the bamboo tube was empty and the water in it had been finished.

Every time he thought of this, Liu Ji couldn't help but look up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, bright and sad.

Six people are responsible for one cart. Excluding their own food, the rest of the food in the cart is the military rations that must be delivered to the military camp as scheduled.

Many people thought the same as him. If the rain got heavier, Shangguan Lie would definitely have to stop the team to repair, and then they could rest.

Liu Ji was very resentful and hated Shangguan Lie to death.

Liu Ji tentatively stretched out his foot. The water was deeper than his calf.

Liu Ji didn't want to be beaten, so he gritted his teeth and used all his strength to fight.

"Hiss~" The sun was too dazzling, and after staring at it for two seconds, his eyes couldn't bear the pain. Liu Ji felt sad for less than two seconds, and decisively lowered his head, pretending to be honest, and followed the car with his numb legs.

Sometimes the road was not easy to walk, and the carriage bumped and dropped the grain bags. He would immediately bend down to pick up the grain bags that fell on the ground. Forget about choking on the dust in his nose, a spray of fresh horse manure sprayed down, that's it. Kill me.

It is sad to say that such quick reactions were all trained at the hands of the evil woman at home.

With such a joint relationship, six people in the same group will naturally form a small group to work together and supervise each other.

However, the cool rain has fallen and the heat has completely disappeared. Liu Ji has been tortured by the scorching sun for a long time. At this moment, he only thinks that it will be better if the rain falls harder.

Many people were dumbfounded, wondering if the sky was missing? How could it be poured directly into the Tianhe River?

Then, the heavy rain really fell.

While he was busy, Shangguan Lie suddenly gave the order to move forward quickly!

The food delivery team suddenly burst into mourning, not wanting anyone to live!

Liu Ji deeply suspected that the leader of the team had a quirk that tortured people, and he did not want them to be better off.

At the end of autumn, the heat in the day makes people dizzy. A bottle of water is quickly finished. Every time the team stops for a break, those who are not on duty will immediately grab the bamboo tubes of their teammates and grab them. Fetch water.

The rain continued from noon to the evening of the next day without any break in between. The entire ground of the inn turned into a pool and depression, with mud and water mixed together, making it extremely turbid.

It's good to have something to drink. The six of us shared it together, which relieved the heat a little.

Those who haven't had time will immediately follow the team and continue to move forward quickly, just hoping that God will rain heavily soon.

There were so many carriages and horses that there was no room for them at the inn. They could only unload the horses and carriages separately, and hurriedly pushed the grain carts into the hut where they rested, and barely piled them together.

The sky was overcast at noon. Not only did it show no intention of clearing up, the rain was actually heavier than half an hour ago.

He really offended the officer who escorted them, and placed him under the fierce soldier Shangguan Lie. There were so many grain transport teams, but he could move as fast as he could.

It's okay when there are wells and large streams and mountain springs. If you encounter the kind of ravine that is more dilute than urine, the time to rest is simply not enough.

As long as you move a little slower, the soldier on horseback will come roaring with his whip.

If there is any damage to the military rations, six people will sit together and deal with it according to military law.

His reaction was so quick that even the leading soldier couldn't help but take another look at him.

If you encounter someone with an impatient temper, occasional physical contact and verbal quarrels are unavoidable.

Liu Ji was disliked because he had thin skin and tender flesh and could not carry his shoulders or lift his hands.

Liu Ji did not have the same strength as Qin Yao. The heavy wheel seemed to be firmly absorbed by the mud, and he had to use almost all his strength to push it.

The soldier rode his horse back and forth in the team, cracked the whip in his hand several times, and shouted:

“Go quickly, faster and faster!”

Those covered with oilcloth, those who hurriedly searched for bamboo hats and raincoats to put on, and those who calmed frightened horses.

Liu Ji, as the most agile person in his group, was the first to draw water every time. There are four remaining guards around, blocking others from grabbing it. A tacit agreement has been reached.

He wanted to ride in the carriage occasionally and actively applied to be a coachman. The leading soldier raised his thick eyebrows and arranged for him to be the driver.

　　A little slower, but the pressure was so intense that the first pair of shoes was scrapped before he had been walking for three days.

In this way, it took only half an hour for the grain transport team, which consisted of twenty cars and more than one hundred people, to reach the post station twenty miles away.

At this time, Liu Ji was extremely glad that he was not a coachman. Otherwise, he would have been the person standing outside the inn in the rain pulling the horse that kept licking its hooves.

Since then, Liu Ji began to follow the carriage and eat ashes every day to transport grain.

Shangguan Lie walked out of the gate of the post house and saw Liu Ji's retracted feet. He frowned and said a few words to the soldiers beside him before returning to the post house.

After a while, the soldier gave the order to rest for another day and set off as soon as the water recedes tomorrow morning.

Everyone was happy and could take a break.
