These recruits are doing a good job, so Xia Hongsheng decided to reward them. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 After finishing the afternoon training, Xia Hongsheng took matters into his own hands and took the men in Li Xiaogong's army to grill the fish and stew a large pot of fish soup.

The huge marching pot stewed fish soup, Xia Hongsheng has never tried it, the fish caught on the beach is fresh in the end, and it is fresh and tight when stewed in a pot. There are not so many grilled fish, one for two people, which can be regarded as a fresh taste.

"It's a pity, I didn't bring enough material for such a good fish." Xia Hongsheng shook his head: "I'm in a hurry, thinking about traveling lightly all the way, hey, no matter where I go, these seasonings are all complete." ”

"That's, I also don't think there's anything that can make Brother Sheng'er more attentive to you than this." Li Chengqian nodded vigorously, and then took his finger to uncover the grilled fish, and it was almost flowing out: "Is it cooked?" Can you eat it? It smells so fresh! ”

"Hahahaha, I heard that the virtuous nephew personally grilled the fish here, this king can't miss it!" While the two were talking, they heard a hearty laugh behind them, and when they looked back, they saw Li Xiaogong coming over.

Xia Hongsheng smiled, took the branch that pierced the fish from the shelf, and handed it to Li Xiaogong: "Uncle is really here, it's just ripe, not much at all, no less." ”

Li Xiaogong looked at the fish, then at Li Chengqian, and was about to speak, but Li Chengqian had already seen what he meant, so he said: "Uncle eats first, uncle eats first!" Where is the nephew rushing to eat? ”

Li Xiaogong looked at Li Chengqian, was very moved, and said: "The prince's palace is getting better and better!" ”

"Uncle has an overreputation, this, it should have been my uncle who ate first!" Li Chengqian looked like a matter of course and said: "Although I am the crown prince in the palace, but this is outside, Chengqian is just a nephew, and the number of courtesies that should be there is no less." ”

Li Xiaogong laughed: "Then the king is disrespectful!" ”

After that, he took the branch wearing the grilled fish, took a bite directly, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "Okay!" Fresh! Xia Xian's nephew is really good, just using minced salt, this fish is grilled delicious! ”

"It's because the fish are fresh," Xia Hongsheng said with a smile.

Li Xiaogong asked again: "Virtuous nephew, this king heard that you ordered those newly recruited soldiers to rush to the shore with their bare hands from the water today, and asked people to use bows and crossbows to obstruct them on the shore, and finally let those new soldiers rush up with their bare hands!" Damn, I think it's these cowards who owe a lot! With a crossbow in his hand, he can't even guard against a group of recruits! ”

Xia Hongsheng laughed and said, "Uncle can't say that. The little nephew arranged this test just to let those recruits get a feel for it. It's not that the soldiers really can't hold it. Those crossbow arrows went to the arrows, and my uncle wanted to know about them. But the coast is so long, how can it be defended by crossbow arrows alone? If you really want to defend the riverbank, you must be fully equipped. There are hot air balloons in the sky to detect enemies in the distance. There is a ****** on the water's shore, which is thrown on the surface of the water and ignited, and the fire burns on the water, and the temperature is very high, unless you dive very deep, and the boat that lands on the shore will certainly not pass. There must also be firearms on the shore, and no one can rush up wherever someone shows their heads and blasts them. Today is only the only piece of defense, a few recruits went ashore from the side from the side, detoured to the back, rushed into the formation and disrupted the crossbow formation, and the other recruits took advantage of the loophole and rushed up. Otherwise, just this little person, let alone a recruit, even a person who has experienced a hundred battles, will have to die on this beach. ”

"Oh?" Li Xiaogong laughed after hearing this, and said, "There are still a few people who have a heart!" Do you know who went around the back and attacked the crossbow array? ”

"The one with the same name as the ancient generals." Xia Hongsheng said with a smile: "He led the ten people on his assault boat to dive into the water and detour from the side, bypassing the defense of the crossbow array and going around the shore, and then rushed into the crossbow array, which greatly disrupted the rhythm of the crossbow array, tore open a missing test, and let the people in the water rush up, and then further undermined the defense. ”

"Hahahaha, it's a talent." Li Xiaogong said with a smile: "Look at him more, if he is really a talented man in the army, this king will not hesitate to pull him." Alas, our sailors are people! In addition to this king, there is also Zhang Liang, who can lead the sailor to do a battle, and the others are afraid that they don't know much about the ship. However, Zhang Liang is also honest and deceitful, and no one knows about it. Among this water master, there is not a young handsome talent like Su Dingfang! ”

"Hehe, uncle, don't worry, when we train the sailors here, the little nephew will fill in the navy courses in the military academy to cultivate talents who are good at naval warfare." Xia Hongsheng saw Li Xiaogong shaking his head and sighing, so he said.

"Now I only hope that the training will be effective as soon as possible, and I also hope that Your Majesty will be able to enable the sailors to attack Goguryeo as soon as possible. My sailor can show his majesty, and it is good to enter the vision of the imperial court. Li Xiaogong said.

"Attacking Goguryeo is already a sure thing. Now His Majesty is waiting for only two things. Xia Hongsheng said to Li Xiaogong: "The same is grain and grass." The other is a good reason. Speaking of grain and grass, Uncle Li, in your opinion, if you attack Liaodong, how much grain and grass will be needed? ”

"This ...... But I can't say for sure. Li Xiaogong thought for a while, shook his head and said: "In fact, since the war broke out, most of the grain and grass were consumed on the way to transport grain, and it was only one-twelfth out of one-tenth that really arrived in the army, and even less than one-twelfth of it. In that year, Emperor Yang of the Dynasty conquered Goguryeo and transported grain from the Central Plains states to Liaodong. People on the road have to eat, horses have to eat grass, plus other losses, more than 100 stone of grain, to Liaodong, there can be 10 stone is already excellent. Therefore, after a war, the loss of food is extremely serious. ”

"Have you ever thought about transporting grain by water?" Xia Hongsheng asked.

Li Xiaogong nodded: "It is true that the loss of grain by water is much smaller than that on land, but it is also necessary to transport grain to the water's edge first, and there is still a lot of loss." This can't be avoided, unless, our Datang has so much grain that we don't care about these losses. The three expeditions to Goguryeo in the previous dynasty have brought the people palpitations that have not been settled, if they are not fully prepared this time, they are only afraid of ......"

Li Xiaogong didn't say anything further, but Xia Hongsheng and Li Chengqian already understood what he meant.

"Uncle, the little nephew doesn't know, just talk about it casually, do you think that attacking Goguryeo, one million stone of grain, is it enough?" Xia Hongsheng thought for a while and asked.

Hearing Xia Hongsheng's question, Li Xiaogong and Li Chengqian were both startled, and looked at Xia Hongsheng in amazement.

Xia Hongsheng looked up at the sea and said softly: "Alas, I don't know if there is so much grain in a Linyi country. (To be continued.) )
