Yun Hao followed the prestige, but it was Yin Kaishan beside the eldest grandson Wuji. The old guy looked at Yun Hao with disdain in his eyes.

"What does the old general say?" Yun Hao was a little confused, as if he hadn't said the wrong thing.

"In August, there seems to be a fire in the sky. What kind of dry food do you have that can be kept for fifteen days without rotting? Even if it's a rice ball, it's spoiled in three days. Yin Kaishan shouted angrily.

Yun Hao looked at the old man who was blowing his beard and glaring, and couldn't help but laugh. Disdainful of explanation, he said to Li Wenzhong: "There are scallion pancakes, bring one to the old general." ”

"No!" Qiu Shili responded to the promise, and actually went to the room to bring a scallion pancake.

"This is the dry food of our army, which can keep it for half a month even in August weather. Let's say it first, it's okay in Longyou. If it is in the humid Jiangnan or Bashu land, it is not possible. Qiu Shili handed the scallion pancake to Yin Kaishan with both hands.

Yin Kaishan took the scallion pancake suspiciously and looked at the oily thing. He couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart, he really hadn't heard of being able to support dry food that didn't rot for fifteen days in such a hot weather. In the past, most of the people he carried in his army were rice balls. Even if it is a dry Longyou, it will be rancid in three days at most, and the soldiers will have diarrhea after eating.

"If you don't believe me, we can take a gamble." Yun Hao hugged his shoulders and said with God in the presence.

As soon as they heard that Yun Hao was going to make a bet, Li Er and Eldest Sun Wuji immediately looked strange. Yin Kaishan has never seen such a thing as scallion pancakes, but Li Er and eldest grandson Wuji have seen it. Seeing Yun Hao sacrifice this magic weapon, he shook his head helplessly. Li Er said to Yin Kaishan: "This thing is oily, and it can still be stored in a damp place for three or five days." The climate in Longyou is dry, not to mention fifteen days of storage, even if it is a month. Don't bet with this kid that you don't want anything in the future. Remember! Remember! ”

The eldest grandson Wuji nodded, thinking so!

Yin Kaishan saw that Li Er and the eldest grandson Wuji both said this, although he still had some doubts in his heart, he had already believed eighty percent. With a snort, he tucked the scallion pancake into his sleeve. He was going to go home and test if this thing could really last that long.

"This four-wheeled carriage is indeed a unique weapon that can be attacked and defended, and Lone will do his best to get you enough horses. In addition, he will also order the superintendent to build this kind of carriage. Don't hide it! The words were said to Li Wenzhong, but finally his eyes looked at Yun Hao.

Li Wenzhong glanced at Yun Hao, and could only bow down and agree.

The stables were attached to the armory, and other people's armories were usually sharpened before the war. But the armory here is stinking, which is a little out of place with the clean and tidy barracks.

Li Er couldn't help his strong curiosity and walked in with his nose covered. As soon as he entered, others could only cover their noses and follow up. It's really stinky, it's still Qiu Shili's sharp eyes. ordered someone to get a lot of wet cloth towels, which can be regarded as saving the life of the big guy. When Li Er saw the soldiers, he was soaking the arrows of the arrows into the rotten and green dung soup, and his stomach twitched.

"What are you doing here?" Li Er covered his nose and asked angrily.

"Back to Your Highness, the arrows used by our army have been soaked in dung and water. When the arrow is cast, there will be several small holes. Such an arrow will suppurate the wound of the enemy as soon as it sees blood. Even if it is only a few minor injuries, if the treatment is not done in time, it will still die. ”

"Oh?" Li Er's eyes lit up, it was the first time he had heard of such a thing. As a veteran on the battlefield, Li Er naturally knew that the place with the highest mortality rate was not actually the battlefield, but the wounded barracks after the war.

Often, after a major battle, three to forty percent of the wounded soldiers die for various reasons. Among them, the wound is suppurated and the fever does not subside, and it reaches more than eighty percent.

Arrows are actually limited to human damage. Unless it hits the neck, or the head, or something critical. Often a person with three or four arrows stuck in his body can still hold on to the battle. And the more advanced the general, the better the armor protection. Even with high-end light armor, the hard crossbow can't shoot through fifty paces away.

But with this thing, it's different, as long as you are injured, you are likely to die from the subsequent infection. Ignoring the stench, he glanced at the dung of maggots and flies: "Hmm! This plan is very good, not only the arrows need a brocade robe. Even the triangular nails and blades are soaked as much as possible. Don't dislike the stink, it's good to be able to kill more enemies on the battlefield. ”

"My lord, the effect of applying tung oil to the blade is better. Not only is the wound not easy to recover, but it can also keep the blade from rusting. Who likes to hold a stinking blade! Yun Hao covered his nose and said helplessly.

"As far as you kid is concerned, you must have come up with this idea. I'm afraid it won't be easy to learn from you from these soldiers. Li Er left the courtyard with everyone, and the big guy didn't dare to take off the cloth towel until he left the courtyard for hundreds of steps. Taking a deep breath of air, I never felt like it would be so good to breathe freely.

In front of the school yard, a team of crossbowmen are training to shoot with crossbows. A qualified archer needs at least a few years of training. From arm strength to archery skills, there are extremely high requirements, but crossbowmen are not so troublesome. It may take a month for a person to go from farmer to crossbowman. And the lethality may be a little stronger than that of the archers.

The firing formation of this army was somewhat strange, with the front and back rows of soldiers staggered between each other. Immediately after the first platoon of soldiers fired, they bent down and wound their crossbow arrows with their feet. The soldiers behind him continued to shoot, and after the soldiers behind him finished shooting, the front row was also equipped with arrows and continued to shoot, and the consistency of the shooting could be maintained under the staggered shooting.

Li Er is an old expert on the battle array, and he knows it at a glance. This tactic will greatly hinder the enemy's charge, and will be less effective against cavalry. Can be used against infantry...... The problem is that there is no way to deal with the sword and shield man.

Normally, the sword and shield bearer will hold a large protective shield. If the local general finds out that the opponent is in this formation, he will definitely order the sword and shield men to be in front. Although the speed of the impact will be a little slower, the casualties will be relatively small.

Li Er could see that Yin Kaishan, the eldest grandson Wuji, Qu Tutong, Li Jing and others could not see it. They are all experts in the military formation, and it is necessary to stand in front of the enemy's formation.

Look at the target, three hundred paces away, six or seven out of ten. Yin Kaishan smiled and said: "The accuracy is good, but it can't shoot through the shield." "The old guy just ate a deflated scallion pancake, and now he wants to get back to the field.

"Hahaha! Don't talk too much, old general, what do you see over there? Yun Hao pointed in the distance, and saw five improved eight-bull crossbows training to shoot. The hammer smashed, and the javelin-like arrows pierced the target five hundred paces away.

"Hmmm! Yes, your eight-bull crossbow can be wound with only three people. The rate of fire is really good, but it can be used for more than a dozen eggs. With your current reload speed, I'm afraid you'll be in front of you with three shots. These three arrows can shoot and kill several people. Yin Kaishan stroked his gray beard and said disappreciatively.

"Of course, a dozen planes are not enough to shock the enemy, but two hundred planes should be enough!" Yun Hao smiled proudly.

"Two hundred eight-ox crossbows, how can you have so many. At the head of Chang'an City, there are less than a hundred. "Hearing that Yun Hao has two hundred eight-bull crossbows, Li Jing and Qu Tutong immediately became uneasy. When they were engaged in battle with Yun Hao, they had tasted the bitterness of these eight-bull crossbows.

"My eight-bull crossbow has a simple structure and is easy to assemble on the assembly line. Not only that, but the parts between the eight-ox crossbow are also universal. When I left, there were two hundred in the army. As for now......! Yun Hao looked at Li Wenzhong.

"Back to the Hou Ye, there are now two hundred and eighty-five eight-ox crossbows in the army. The craftsmen in the army are still rushing to make it, and there should be more than 300 by the time of the expedition. Because there are too many eight-ox crossbows, so many four-wheeled carriages are needed. A thousand four-wheeled carriages, pulling eight oxen crossbows, must account for thirty percent. ”

Li Er gasped, he didn't expect them to have three hundred eight-bull crossbows. My God, what kind of military formation can withstand such a shot from an eight-bull crossbow. Under the three hundred eight-bull crossbows, it is estimated that no team can hold on. What's more, there are countless crossbowmen behind the Eight Bull Crossbow. Li Er began to have confidence in this team, not to mention the number of eight-bull crossbows alone, this army has already crowned the Tang Dynasty.

Looking at this circle, it has been three poles in the day. Li Er found that the soldiers had already closed their ranks and began to walk towards the room with the canteen sign written on it. Looking at the sun in the sky, could it be that they only had breakfast at this time?

"His Royal Highness the King of Qin, the soldiers have two meals a day. If you have to train again, your body will be in deficit. In the long run, not only will we not be able to get strong soldiers, but it will also greatly damage the health of the soldiers. Therefore, our army will have a lunch at noon. Not only do you have to eat lunch, but you also have to rest for an hour after lunch to take a nap. The subordinates will send people to prepare a feast for all of you! ”

Li Wenzhong ordered someone to prepare a feast, but Li Er refused. He wanted to see what the food of the common soldiers was, and this army brought him novelties everywhere, and he wanted to go to the soldiers' quarters to see for himself. Walking all over the Tang Dynasty, whose army is not two meals a day. I want to see how this lunch is eaten.

The soldiers were queuing up to eat, but Li Er found that the soldiers' meals were different. Some people can only receive two steamed buns and a bowl of water, while others can receive steamed buns, pickles and broth. There are also some soldiers who can eat steamed buns casually. And not only can there be a broth, but also a bowl of meat.

Look at those soldiers who eat meat, there are all military officers and officers. The soldiers, who had not received the meat, did not seem to complain. Look at other people eating meat, swallow a mouthful of saliva and chew the steamed bun fiercely.

"Why is there such a difference in the meals of the same soldiers?" Li Er asked suspiciously, looking at the food in the bowls of the soldiers.

"Back to the King of Qin, the soldiers eat all by their ability. Three arrows, 250 paces away, can hit the target. There's meat, there's vegetables, there's hot. In addition, the steamed bun tube is full! Those who hit one can eat steamed buns to be full, and there are pickles and soups. As for the three shots, the only way to do it is to eat steamed buns and drink some salt water.

The strong in the army are respected, and if you want to eat well, you have to practice your skills. You see, there aren't many people who drink salt water and eat steamed buns now. Most people are able to eat steamed buns and drink broth. Even if it is a three-shot shot, there are not a few. In a few days, the distance of the target will increase to 300 paces. Those who still eat mixed rice will be kicked out of the team. ”

Li Er gasped, such cruel military regulations. Under this kind of military regulations, I'm afraid no one will not train well.

"Not only will the food be distributed according to the size of the ability, but even the accommodation, military salaries and other treatments. The strong will be treated better, and the whole army will take a big test every ten days. Those who fail the three consecutive major exams will be excluded. Yun Hou said that the army is a machine, and a mediocre person may sometimes kill the whole army. ”

"Hmmm! Eliminating the weak and retaining the strong is indeed the way to strengthen the army. Today's new army has left a deep impression on the old man. Yin Kaishan listened to Li Wenzhong's introduction and nodded. I thought in my heart that I should also implement this law in my own army.

Li Jing's eyes were full of brilliance, he didn't expect a kid to be able to quickly lead a team, he really did everything. From logistics, to the military system, to weapons, it has become a system. I was trapped in Chang'an City for several months, and I couldn't lose it.

After eating, the soldiers went to take a nap. The huge military camp was quiet, and Li Er took the group to start lunch. Lunch is very simple, one rice bowl per person. The white rice is covered with a layer of fat and thin braised pork. With some small green vegetables, you will have an appetite when you look at it.

Yin Kaishan ate sweetly, and ate three bowls in one go. actually had to add rice, which fully exposed the essence of a rice bucket.

The afternoon training was an eye-opener for everyone, and the soldiers ran in circles around the school field. One moment over the wall, the other into the pond. Climb the pole with both hands, or even climb the rope to cross a deep ditch.

They are all veterans on the battlefield, and they can still keep smiling at first. But looking at it, his expression became more and more solemn. If you look at the athletic skills of each soldier, you can see that this training lasted for a long time. This made the generals who only knew how to let the soldiers lift the piers and lift the stone locks very puzzling. Isn't it fought by courage? Why don't you practice running away with your strength?

"You can't just train one muscle in your body, otherwise you will be trained to dead meat. A qualified soldier must not only have strength, but also agility and endurance. Only soldiers with qualified strength, agility, and endurance can become the last ones to survive on the battlefield. Yun Hao looked at those sturdy soldiers and was very satisfied, it seemed that although he had returned to Jinyang for more than half a year. These boys didn't pull down the training.

From the stupid and stupid appearance at the beginning, now they have all become athletic people.

"Okay, there's this strong army. This time Xue Ju will definitely be extinguished! Li Er looked at the soldiers in front of him, his eyes were glowing. Strong army! A real strong army!
