Chapter 144 This East Wind is not the Other East Wind of the East

As for how Li Yuan distributed the captured gold, Chen Ying didn't worry about it, it seemed that the Tang Army's war against Zheng Guo had nothing to do with Chen Ying, the right deputy marshal, and Chen Ying's greatest pleasure every day was to train the soldiers of the Modao Army under his command. As the so-called winter practice Sanjiu, summer practice Sanfu.

Although it was already past 39 at this time, the weather outside was freezing and it was an excellent time for military training.

It's a pity that the Mo knife is still not enough, and the Mo knife and Gao Menggang Mingguang armor transported from Chang'an are only more than 1,300 handles. Chen Ying waved his hand, and the soldiers of the Modao Army were divided into two waves for training, half of the personnel did not wear armor, did not hold Modao, and carried a wooden stake more than two zhang long and weighing two or two hundred catties to practice endurance.

The other half of the people were wearing bright light armor, holding Mo knives and following orders, stepping on the drum beat, advancing like a wall. As the training continued, the cooperation of the soldiers of the Zhongmo Sword Army also became closer and closer.

The training of the soldiers of the Modao Army is actually just a few moves, heavy splitting from top to bottom, reverse slashing from right to left, and splitting from bottom to top, and splitting from left to right.

However, it is undeniable that although the sword technique of the Mo Dao Army is simple, it is concise and ruthless. In one go, without tricks, concise and practical, if on the battlefield, Mo Dao Hand swept and slashed like this, it is estimated that the corpses would have been all over the field.

"Woo woo ......" Every day when it was not lit, Chen Ying, who was overly energetic, sounded the thick and desolate battle horn. Mo swordsmen, long soldiers, short soldiers, archers, hook and sickle guns, and other troops, like a fire burning their buttocks, hurriedly got up, and used cold water to expel the sleepiness in their heads.

No one can do anything, Chen Ying is late and doesn't beat or scold, the key is that Chen Ying is hungry.

As long as you can't complete the fully armed assembly, I'm sorry, I don't ask for breakfast. On such a cold day, if you can't eat under such intense training, it will be a fatal thing. Chen Ying has nothing to talk about, he doesn't eat when he is late, and he doesn't give food if his training performance is not up to standard. After the officers and men of the whole army completed the assembly, there was no reprimand, no morale, and they first warmed up with a five-kilometer fully armed cross-country warm-up.

Complete the five-kilometer cross-country, breakfast and dinner, of course, the time is only a quarter of an hour and two pillars of incense, which is equivalent to the time of the afterlife is only about twenty minutes, the soldiers who have not completed the cross-country warm-up, sorry, you don't need to eat breakfast, you can eat together at noon.

Guo Luo came to Chen Ying, the new commander, and felt very curious. In particular, Chen Ying's wealth gave Guo Luo a new understanding of Chen Ying.

On the first day he became the deputy commander of the Tiger Yicong, the quartermaster issued him a pair of Mingguang armor made of high manganese steel, of course, the Mingguang armor equipped by ordinary generals and the Mingguang armor of the Modao Army are two completely different scales. The Mingguang armor of the Mo Dao Army weighs thirty-five catties, and at medium and close range, it can be shot with bows and arrows other than the bed crossbow, even if it is a three-stone bow and arrow, if you don't use a specially built armor-piercing cone, you don't have to worry about being hurt at all. However, the Mingguang armor of ordinary infantry weighed only fifteen catties.

Armor and tanks are actually the same truth, the heavier the mass, the higher the defense. The fifteen-pound high manganese steel Mingguang armor can't ignore the bow and arrow like the Mingguang armor of the Modao Army, but there is no need to worry about bows and arrows below one stone.

However, there is no need to worry about this, the three-stone bow and arrow rally requires three hundred and sixty catties, generally speaking, unless it is a talented player with great strength, there is no way to do it. Not to mention that there are only fifteen catties of Mingguang armor, and the horizontal knife is slashed on it, and there is only one scratch.

This can be called invulnerable armor, and when he got this armor, Guo Luo was inexplicably moved, but he found that almost all the soldiers in the army were issued with this kind of armor, Guo Luo had to say that Chen Ying was wealthy.

Of course, Chen Ying's wealth is more than that, the sword is as hot as mud, no matter who has one, it must not be regarded as a treasure? But Chen Ying was good, not only did the soldiers of the whole army have a handle, but even the people who followed the army also issued a steel axe weighing fifteen catties.

The steel axe, which can be called a killing weapon, in Chen Ying's eyes, is just a goods that can barely chop firewood, in fact, the people use these mountain axes to build barracks, build cave house vehicles, siege ladder vehicles, nest vehicles, arrow tower vehicles and various siege equipment.

In addition to the equipment, the soldiers of the Don Army also ate very well. Breakfast, lunch and dinner, in this era, three meals are the special treatment of the children of the family, but Chen Ying not only gave the soldiers of the whole army three meals, but also ate very richly. Breakfast not only has steamed buns and small rice, rice, sorghum rice, but also unlimited, you can eat three bowls, absolutely enough.

In addition to the rice pipe, there are also dishes. Of course, the dish is not a good dish, and it is mainly based on tofu, bean sprouts, or radish stew. The steamed bread is made of refined wheat, and the coarse wheat bran is all left for the war horse as the essence, while the fine noodles are used to steam the steamed bread, half a catty of steamed bread, and then drink a big bowl of bean sprout soup, basically full.

Lunch is a bit more substantial, with three-finger-wide soup cakes (noodles), soup and dry, which is very anti-hunger. Guo Luo didn't know how much food Chen Ying had, anyway, the soldiers of the whole army ate every day, but the food was continuously transported from Chang'an City or Tongguan.

Although the taste of the food is not very good, the oil and water are insufficient. But no one dares to say anything strange, what kind of world is this? Even the landlord who has hundreds or thousands of acres of land at home does not dare to guarantee that he will eat rice and white noodles at once, and all the soldiers are gobbling it up, and the soldiers' favorite thing is to use half a piece of steamed bread to wipe the dishes clean, and even save the brush.

Guo Luo knows how to do arithmetic, he knows that there are more than 26,000 people in the whole army plus the people, and they have to eat 800 stone of grain in a day, as well as oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, but Chen Ying actually did not show signs of lack of materials at all.

Guo Luo naturally didn't know that Chen Ying's material supply actually had three aspects, one of which was the two more stone grains he carried when he set off from Chang'an, which was actually the food and food he exchanged from Li Shentong by using his armor.

At this time, Li Shentong also became a second-class dealer. The heavy armor in Chen Ying's hand, which is regarded as scrap steel, is a good treasure in Li Shentong's eyes. In fact, the family gate lords have their own private soldiers, of course, the number is small, Li Yuan can pretend not to see it, if there are many people, it means that you want to have a heart of disobedience.

Therefore, these clan gate valves have been increasing the equipment of private soldiers while reducing the number of private soldiers, but unfortunately the clan gate valves do not have such advanced technology as Chen Ying, they build a pair of armor by themselves, the quality is not as good as the heavy armor in Chen Ying's hands, due to the small workshop manufacturing, the cost is almost as high as more than 200 yuan, and the family gate valve can not resist such a high price. However, Chen Ying sold only a few dozen pieces of heavy armor, which was no different from giving it away for nothing.

So, Chen Ying was under the Hangu Pass, and the clan gate lords brought their sheep, pigs, chickens, ducks, or cloth to trade with Chen Ying.

Chen Ying had less than a thousand sets of heavy armor in his hand at this time, but in exchange for his baggage battalion, all kinds of baggage were piled up.

Chen Ying asked the troops to take turns to carry out offensive and defensive drills in the lower city of Hangu Pass every day, and he actually achieved unexpected results.

The dense and neat Tang soldiers pushed the ladder cart and the nest cart to attack the city wall, but Wang Renze was frightened. Wang Ren was like a great enemy, so that all the soldiers were ready for battle, but when there was still a stone's throw away from Hangu Pass, he took the initiative to retreat.

But Wang Ren had no choice but to turn fiction into reality. Therefore, he must personally keep an eye on the city wall and take the troops to defend it to the death.

Chen Ying said, if you are willing to wait, just stay. He held three or five all-army attacks every day, and again, without exception, they were all touched and walked without delay. The time is short, Wang Renze and the soldiers under his command can still hold on, but after seven or eight days, not to mention ordinary soldiers, even Wang Renze is about to be tossed crazy by Chen Ying.

Wang Renze had just been lying in bed that night, and before he could fall asleep, suddenly the drums of war outside the city rang out. Wang Ren didn't get a good night's sleep for the past seven or eight days, he listened to the sound of war drums, but quickly closed his eyes. He roared: "Chen Ying of this dog day, this set of ...... again"

But Wang Ren deserved to be slapped in the face, when his words just fell. I heard the guards shouting urgently outside the door: "Tell the general, the Tang army is attacking the city!" ”

At this time, the western half of the sky was already reflected in the fire, as if a fire was burning in the sky. Seeing this scene, Wang Ren naturally knew that this must be the torches in the hands of the soldiers of the Tang Army, as the so-called everyone gathered firewood and fell into the heights, and more than 20,000 torches were lit at the same time, which was simply like the outbreak of a mountain fire.

Wang Ren was helpless, as long as he wore armor, he hurried to the west wall of Hangu Pass.

It's just that when they came to the western city wall, the Tang army had already receded like a tide.

What was left for Wang Renze was the backs of countless Tang Army soldiers, the mottled bloodstains on the city walls, and hundreds of mutilated corpses.

Wang Ren yelled at the night sky: "Chen Yingxiao'er, don't go, you will fight to the death!" ”

It's just that Wang Ren is destined to waste his efforts, just when Wang Shichong just got out of bed, Chen Ying had already returned to the big tent, lying on the big soft bed, and fell asleep.

Wang Ren had no choice but to leave some of his staff and continue to sleep.

In the middle of the night, Chen Ying got up as usual, and then ordered someone to blow the thick and desolate battle horn. As the sound of the whimpering battle horn sounded through the sky, the Modao Army and the Yue Cavalry Army hurriedly got up and gathered according to the order.

Shan Xiongxin, who wore a purple-gold tiger head mask on his face, asked very strangely: "If the general said that the plan to exhaust the enemy, it is almost the same now, why don't you attack yet?" ”

Chen Ying looked at Hangu Guan, who was crawling in the night sky like an ancient giant beast, and said, "I'm waiting!" ”

Shan Xiongxin said suspiciously: "What is the Lord waiting for?" ”

"I'm waiting for the east wind!"

Shan Xiongxin not only did not understand, but became even more puzzled: "Dongfeng? With the current weather, it is estimated that the east wind will not come for three or five months. ”

Chen Ying sighed and said, "This east wind is not the other east wind!" ”
