In Mozhou, Gu Han really saw the efficiency of the elite troops under Li Ze's command. When the order from the Wuyi court arrived, the entire bureaucracy of Mozhou began to run at a speed he could not have imagined, and in just a few days, all the needs of the expedition were in place, and the army was ready.

Gu Han, who has traveled the world, has seen a lot of troops, but he has never seen the mobilization speed of an army like the one in front of him, originally he thought that after arriving in Mozhou, there would be a period of rest and recuperation, so as to wait for the troops to be ready, but the right Xiaowei army did not give him this time at all, and on the third day, he received a notice and embarked on the journey with Li Rui.

Without leviing any taxes on the common people and mobilizing the people, this army actually brought supplies and drove out.

Gu Han really hadn't seen any army that didn't alarm the people before preparing to fight.

But the one in front of me did it.

Li Rui's troops and horses, stationed in Mozhou, quietly left their camp before dawn.

"Judge Gu, I really didn't expect that you would do this!" Li Rui sat on a horse-drawn sleigh with two skis resting on his knees.

The two had just competed in a long-distance skating competition, although in the end Li Rui had to be more skilled, and he was better than Gu Han in terms of skill and endurance, but Li Rui still admired Gu Han very much, after all, the other party was strictly speaking, he was still a scholar.

This contest also made Li Rui impressed by the judge in front of him.

"When I traveled in my early years, I went to these places in the Northeast, not to mention Pingzhou, and I also went to Liaozhou. That's what I learned. Gu Han smiled and picked up the skis beside him, rubbed the bottom of the board that was as bright as a mirror, and said with emotion: "But at that time, it could only be simple because of ugliness, and I could just get two planks, and more often than not, I walked instead of sliding like now, it was too rough, and it was particularly laborious to slide." ”

"We're different!" Li Rui said: "This is specially built by the branch of the prison in Mozhou, specially selected a wood board with excellent flexibility, and then made after concocting, and then put on a lot of paint after polishing, under normal circumstances, it is difficult to damage their bottom surface, even if you cut it with a knife, you may not be able to cut it with a knife, this pair is worth several taels of silver!" ”

Gu Han was very emotional, when he was in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Li Ze once told him that his biggest dream was to use money to smash the enemy to death, although it was a joke, it was not funny. At least among Li Ze's troops, he is using better and better equipment to let his soldiers win at the starting line.

Take the skis in front of you, for example, which can greatly increase the speed of infantry and save physical strength, but if you use livestock to pull carts to transport soldiers to increase the speed of movement, it will cause a lot of pressure on logistics, after all, livestock also need to eat. In such a cold and snowy place, anything that can be eaten is basically transported from the rear.

This army has limited the use of livestock to a minimum without affecting the ability to fight.

Speaking of which, such a pair of skis costs a few taels of silver, but if you count the consumption saved because of this, maybe Li Ze still has something to earn.

The joints of the head here, if you don't experience it yourself, I'm afraid it's hard to understand. Most people's eyes will only fall on how much such a pair of skis cost.

"General Li's skiing skills are really superb, have you practiced them in the past two years?" Gu Han asked with interest.

"It's not!" Li Rui said with a smile: "When we were still in the secret camp, we lived in Daqing Mountain, didn't there be such a month every year, and the snow closed the mountain?" Childe made a lot of such skis for us to practice, and the most lively thing at that time was to slide all the way down from the top of the mountain, and if you win, you can eat a beautiful meal of braised pork, and if you lose, you can only drool on the side. ”

"That's still dangerous."

"Of course, it's not uncommon to break arms and legs, but compared to the feeling of speed, getting hurt is really nothing. Our group, the most skilled is Li Mi, that female madman, once jumped off the cliff more than ten zhang high, except for Li Han's rammer, no one dared to do it, that is, Li Mi established her status as the eldest sister in the secret camp. ”

"Then Li Han is second?"

"Li Han broke his leg and lay down for three months!" Li Rui laughed.

Seeing that Li Rui was in a really good mood, Gu Han said: "General Li, in the first two battles, we captured a lot of prisoners, and I don't think there is any need to cut these people." Send it back to Li Tingshi, maybe it can play a little role, build roads, build cities, and always be able to use waste! ”

Li Rui glanced at Gu Han with a smile.

"General Li, I don't mean to accuse you, nor do I mean to interfere in military affairs, after all, General Liu gave me the order to observe this operation. It's just a little bit of my personal thoughts. Gu Han explained.

"Judge Gu is too worried." Li Rui said with a smile: "Since we are going out to fight together, stirring horses and spoons in a pot, that is Brother Paoze, if you have any good suggestions, if you don't say it, I will have an opinion." You are well-informed and open-minded, and you are no better than us who grew up in the mountains, so if you have any ideas in terms of combat, just tell me, of course, the decision to adopt or not to adopt it is up to me. ”

"General Li is open-minded, Gu admires him, and Gu lives the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain." Gu Han clenched his fists and sincerely apologized.

"We were all taught by Childe, so why don't we learn Childe's mind a little bit!" Li Rui laughed and said, "Judge Gu, Li Tingshi won't want these people." These people were really sent to Mozhou, which would only cause chaos. These people, they are used to robbing and killing in the original place, and killing them is the best solution. ”

"Maybe not necessarily." Gu Han disagreed. "General Li, I heard that General Liu was punished for killing prisoners back then, you are still young, if you are played by the Imperial History Stage, it will inevitably hinder your future."

Li Rui smiled: "When Judge Gu didn't come, these people had sneaked into my Mozhou region many times and attacked many villages, if Judge Gu had seen the tragic situation of those villages, maybe he wouldn't have said these words." ”

Glancing at Gu Han, Li Rui continued: "Wherever they go, there are no chickens and dogs. The living were taken away by them and made their slaves, and the rest were dead. Tell me, those old people, what threat do they have? It was also killed with a single sword. ”

"War can indeed turn people into beasts." Gu Han said.

Li Han smiled: "Judge Gu, do you know the two-legged sheep?" ”

"Huh?" Gu Han was taken aback.

"Those whom they have taken away are their slaves when they have food, and they are their laborers, and they are their food when there is no grain to harvest. Do you know why I'm going to kill them all? Li Rui's eyes gradually became cold.

"Two-legged sheep?" Gu Han was a little distracted.

Li Rui nodded: "When I captured the first fort, my soldiers found out about such a thing, a child, probably not more than ten years old, was disemboweled, cut into several large pieces, and was boiling in a pot!" Condiments were also put in. That kid was snatched from them when they invaded Mozhou a few times ago. ”

Gu Han lowered his head and kept retching.

"I, Li Rui, have also been starved, and almost starved to death, but even when I was about to starve to death, I never had such a thought." Li Rui said: "These bastards, can they be regarded as people? They were all beasts. I didn't let you see it, because I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to see such a scene. Do you know what they do after they eat meat? They grind the bones into flour, and then mix them with wild herbs and flour to make cakes and dry food. ”

Gu Han finally vomited.

"So, take these forts and take them prisoners, and leave me alone. I, Li Rui, am not a person who kills, but I will never show mercy to these people. Li Rui said fiercely. If it falls into my hands, it's a dead word. ”

Speaking of this, he lowered his voice: "Among my troops, there are people from Yushitai, but he also rushed up and cut down several prisoners!" ”

"It really deserves to be killed!" Gu Han finally vomited it clean.

Li Rui thoughtfully handed over a leather bag, "Drink some bars, feel better." ”

Taking a big sip, Gu Han said, "Next time I catch such a person, let me cut a few too!" ”

"Can a scholar kill people?" Li Rui teased.

"When I traveled back then, I also killed a lot of bandits!" Gu Han said: "I was almost killed by them." Fortunately, he didn't die at the hands of anyone, otherwise he would have ended up like you said, and he would not have been at peace if he was really in the Nine Secluded Land. General Li, I am not a person who is not diligent and does not distinguish between grains and grains. ”

"I know this, Zhang Shan of Wuwei Academy, I can't beat him!" Li Rui laughed. "Don't look at the old man's age, that horizontal flesh is intimidating to look at."

Li Rui can make fun of Zhang Hui, but as a fan of Zhang Hui, Gu Han will not be so insignificant.

Just as he was talking and laughing, a gorgeous red flower suddenly bloomed in the air in the distance, and at the same time as this red flower bloomed in the air, the marching troops suddenly stopped, and the mournful sound of the military horn sounded suddenly.

Li Rui stood up suddenly.

The foot soldiers on both flanks quickly converged towards the Chinese army at the sound of military trumpets, and in a few moments, a thick formation had been formed between the Chinese army, and the Chinese army was also assembled at the same time.

In Gu Han's dazzle, this army team became a lineup with both offense and defense.

In the distance, horses' hooves sounded, and scouts were galloping towards them.
