Zhang Chi walked around the army and confirmed that there was no accident before returning to his commanding account.

Secretary Li Bin said: "Today, Xiaonian, I have sent many sheep to you, so I can have a good meal. If you have no trouble, can you let the soldiers drink two bowls of wine? In this weather, everyone is very cold, and drinking a bowl of wine to warm your body."

Zhang Chi said: "Have you asked me about the magistrate?"

Li Bin smiled and said, "The governor has agreed. He said that the commander agreed and will drink tonight."

Zhang Chi thought for a while and said, "Okay. Tell everyone to control the amount. We are on the front line and we can't let everyone get drunk!"

Li Bin agreed happily, laughing like a flower.

At this moment, a personal soldier came in and said with his hands crossed his hands: "Seither the commander, the commander will let you go to the commander's tent. Drink tonight to discuss matters."

Zhang Chi heard this and asked, "Who else is besides me?"

The personal soldier said: "There are two other commanders. The commander said that tonight is the commander's discussion."

Zhang Chi nodded and agreed and asked the personal soldiers to go back and hand over their lives.

When the personal soldiers went out, Li Bin said: "From today, even if the Chinese New Year is over, everyone will drink a bowl of wine. Look, the ruler thinks the same way."

Zhang Chi didn't say anything, and got to his seat to check his plans for tomorrow.

Wang Xiaohunting the rules in the army, he served as the commander of the Central Army, but generally did not care about daily affairs. For example, Li Yanxian was the commander of the Central Army, but also promoted Wang Xiaohunting the affairs of the army. His main energy was in the headquarters, and the daily management of the Central Army was led by the deputy commander Zhang Yin. Zhang Yin was also the commander of the First Regiment of the Central Army, and also promoted the affairs of the Central Army. The daily management of the First Regiment was led by the Deputy Commander Zhang Chi.

The army is normally in the 55 system, and each level is divided into the middle, front, left, right, and back five armies. However, in the headquarters, there is a left Yuhou, which manages the front army and the left army. The right Yuhou, which manages the right army and the rear army. The deputy is like them, responsible for the central army. Some directly affiliated units of the army at this level belong to the central army and are all under the deputy management. Just like Li Yanxian's central army, in addition to the five infantry armies, there are also direct artillery regiments, cavalry regiments, engineering regiments, etc.

At this time, the central army and front army stationed in Linru Town were the Central Army, namely the First Regiment and the Second Regiment, and the Cavalry Regiment. Li Yanxian was in Wentang every day, which was managed by Deputy Chief Zhang Yin.

Looking at the dark, Zhang Chi left his tent and walked towards Zhang Yin's residence. Halfway through, he met Chi Yuping, the commander of the cavalry, and the two of them were talking together and headed to Zhang Yin's place together.

After entering the tent, he saw Zhang Zhen, the commander of the second group, who was already there, was bored drinking tea. A large pot of charcoal fire was growing in the middle of the tent, but there was no flame, but the whole tent was roasted hot.

Seeing Zhang Chi and Chi Yuping come in, Zhang Zhen laughed and said, "You two are late! You have meat to eat tonight, so don't you leave faster!"

Zhang Chi smiled and said, "The sheep around are sold these days. Why can we lose meat when we do the control?"

Zhang Zhen said: "How can it be the same! I specially transported a few fat pigs today, and the deputy governor left a pig leg to eat. I have never eaten pork for many days, so I drooled when I think about it!"

Zhang Chi and Chi Yuping sat down and said, "If it were pork, I would definitely not eat it for a few days."

In the social turmoil, there are fewer pigs around. Pigs are not like sheep, and they just need to eat grass, and long-distance trafficking is not easy. After hard work, there are no shortages of sheep in the army, but pigs are rare.

Several people chatted one by one, drank tea and watched the personal soldiers in front of them clean up the fire.

After a while, Zhang Yin came back from outside. He stomped his feet and said, "Zhi Masao, why is there still a place where the ice has not melted in such a good sun? - Chi Tongzheng, take good care of your subordinates and don't run to the Yi River!"

Chi Yuping was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly got up and crossed his hands to say yes.

Zhang Yin said: "Today your racquet ran to the edge of the Zhai family army again, causing them to complain!"

Chi Yuping hurriedly said, "Don't worry, I'll go back and tell them not to run over there."

Zhang Yin asked Chi Yuping to do it. He said, "If you want me, the Zhai family army is too useless. A dragon gate has been fighting for ten or twenty days, and there is no progress at all! If it were us, we would have entered Luoyang City long ago!"

Sitting down on the main seat, Zhang Yin said to everyone: "You are so happy today! There is a family in Linru Town that specializes in making elbows. Their elbows taste plump. They are really fat but not greasy, thin but not tiring! Tonight, the two of them will have one elbow!"

Zhang Zhen was stunned and said, "Personal General, didn't you leave a pig's leg? Why did you eat elbows again?"

Zhang Yin said: "I gave the pig legs to my personal soldiers. We will eat elbows tonight. - Why? One elbow is not enough for two people? I feel it is not enough for you, so you can keep it for you tomorrow morning. Now the sauce elbows are not cheap, how can you just eat mine?"

Zhang Zhen hurriedly said, "I dare not say anything else."

These soldiers have ministerial money, and they are not strict in their management. They basically spend whatever they want. The only thing is that they are not allowed to be put in their own pockets. In the later years, ministerial money is office funds, but they are very loose in their management.

The Song Dynasty was a habit that all government offices had ministerial money as office funds. However, the civil servants' ministerial money was strictly managed, and the accounts were clear, and they were not allowed to be corrupt. For example, during the reign of Renzong, Teng Zongliang in the northwest used money for the imperial court to investigate ministerial money. He used a lot of money on the front line, and the accounts were hard to explain, so he burned it. Because of this, he was demoted to the governor of Yuezhou and rebuilt Yueyang Tower. Fan Zhongyan wrote an article "Yueyang Tower Notes" for this matter, which was spread to later generations. The ministerial money of military generals was easily managed. If he became a military governor, it would be completely the money of military generals.

Wang Xiaoli followed the system of ministerial money, regardless of civil officials and generals, and generally did not strictly investigate. The restrictions on ministerial money were not allowed to be taken for himself or used for gifts from guests. How to spend it in normal times has no restrictions on officials.

For example, tonight, Zhang Zhen invited several commanders to dinner, using Zhang Zhen’s ministerial money. He is the deputy commander and actually manages the central army. The ministerial money is much more than the commanders below. The commander often invites subordinates to dinner, which is a form of contact with feelings.

Putting the elbow on, the personal soldiers put a few more dishes of clear vegetables. It was nothing more than some tender lotus roots, bean sprouts, radish, etc. in winter. Another plate was thin and white strips, which were silver strips of Luoyang's specialty. This is a specialty of Luoyang and cannot be eaten in other places. It happened to be used to drink wine in winter.

After drinking for three rounds, everyone's words gradually increased.

Zhang Zhen said: "When we arrived in Linru Town, we were extremely anxious. We were afraid that Zhai Xing would capture Luoyang and we had not come yet, and something happened in vain. As a result, we lived here for more than ten days, but Zhai Xing didn't even capture the Dragon Gate. I really didn't know what to say."

Chi Yuping said: "Some of us are watching the battle at Longmen, saying that if Meng Bangxiong's people did not come out, Zhai Xing's people would be helpless. Unless the Luoyang defenders came out, the Zhai family army would not have the upper hand."

Zhang Yin said: "Zhi Niang, Zhai Xing can't attack Longmen, we are embarrassed in Ruzhou! The dragonmen is dozens of miles ahead. What's the matter here? Nearly tens of thousands of troops have run hundreds of miles to watch the fun?"

Zhang Chi sighed: "Yes, we ran hundreds of miles, are we watching the fun? In Linru Town for more than ten days, the morale of the army has begun to become unstable, and there are all things to say below. If Zhai Xing still cannot capture the Longmen after the New Year, what should we do?"

Zhang Yin said: "I asked you to come tonight, just to tell you that you should pay attention to the next day. The war in Zhaixing ahead is not going well, so the morale of the army will naturally be unstable here. You must be careful and pay attention to the situation in the army. No accidents will happen! We are in charge of the army, and we cannot be like the people below, without concentration. The more this happens, the more stable you are!"

Zhang Chi, Chi Yuping and Zhang Zhen said it was together.

Zhang Yin said helplessly: "If we went to attack Longmen, the battle would have ended long ago. But now Zhai Xing is fighting, so we can only watch from the side. Zhai Xing is the governor of Henan Prefecture, Mengzhou, and Zhengzhou, so don't stimulate him. We feel embarrassed. How can the Zhai family army not be embarrassed? Please continue to do so, don't talk about the war in Luoyang in the army. Especially when facing the people of Zhai family army, don't embarrass them!"

Speaking of this, several people felt depressed and didn't say anything anymore, just drank a drink.

After a while, Zhang Zhen said angrily: "When Zhai Xing talked about the Northern Expedition, Jishou didn't say a word. More than 100,000 troops went north. How trust did he trust Zhai Xing? How could he think of it? The Zhai family army was so useless that he could not even capture the Longmen!"

Zhang Yin drank a glass of wine, looked at the few people, and slowly said, "I have something to ask you to come today. I guess that if Zhai Xing really can't capture the Longmen, we will depend on us in the end. In the next days, you should not stimulate the people of the Zhai family. However, you must pay attention to the situation around the Longmen, including the geographical and military information. At that time, we must be able to pull up immediately with the order from the higher authorities! Don't be here for dozens of days and know nothing about the surroundings. If we really can't get up when we go up, that's unreasonable!"

After hearing this, several people looked at each other and couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Seeing the Zhai family army making no progress in Longmen these days, these people could no longer hold back. Listening to Zhang Yin's words, he might have to go to the battle himself in the end, and he felt much more relaxed.
