Straight man of steel

Chapter 181

In the early morning of the next day, the soldiers of the Sanqianqi Gate marched in the direction of Lantian Mountain.

Lantian Mountain is located on the south side of Zhang Mansion and the north side of Dinghu Yanshou Palace.

The palace where Liu Che lived naturally had to face north and south, but Zhang Yuan didn't have so many things to do, as long as he could have a place to live.

The Qimen Army's training camp this time is on the west side of Lantian Mountain. If someone mentions that the Qimen Army left the camp, Wei Qing can use the reason of guarding Dinghu Yanshou Palace to evade it.

Secondly, it is also because it is close to the mountains and forests and close to the water source, so it is possible to station troops for a long time without enjoying the rations of the imperial court.

After walking for a whole day, the army arrived at the western foot of Lantian Mountain. After finding a flat land, they immediately set up camp.

Wei Qing is also very satisfied with this place, but he mainly considers accommodating Zhang Yuan's feelings.

He was worried that Zhang Yuan couldn't bear the long military life, so he thought of coming to Zhang's house.

After Zhang Yuan arrived at the place, he looked at Lantian Mountain, and was still a little worried deep in his heart.

"Young brother, you may be about to issue the first order later."

Wei Qing looked excited, thinking that Zhang Yuan always wanted to talk about the training plan of the army.

"Brother Yuan, just say what you want."

Zhang Yuan looked at the soldiers of the Qimen Army who were all holding weapons, and said worriedly.

"There are many people on Lantian Mountain who are unwilling to leave their hometown because of His Majesty's expansion of Shanglin Garden, and entered the mountain.

Young brother, the first order you will give later is to tell the soldiers not to harm those people. No matter what the court says, those are still fresh human lives. "

Fortunately, Wei Qing came from a poor background and understood Zhang Yuan's request very well. If he were to be replaced by other honorable children, Zhang Yuan would probably spend a lot of talking.

"Okay, I'll give the order in a moment.

Brother Yuan, tomorrow we will completely take root here.

Do you have to tell me about this training plan first, you can't do nothing during the day tomorrow. "

Zhang Yuan had thought up the training plan long ago, and since Wei Qing asked about it, he opened his mouth and said it directly.

"In the first month, let the soldiers go to hunt wild animals nearby, we need a lot of meat.

There is enough meat for 3000 people. Tomorrow I will go home and bring all the potatoes, cabbage, and beets I have hoarded at home.

But these need to be bought with military supplies. "

After Wei Qing heard this, he subconsciously believed that Zhang Yuan wanted to station his troops in Lantian Mountain to catch wild boars.

"Brother Yuan, you're not still thinking about those wild boars, are you? Just find someone to catch a few wild boars in your spare time.

There's no need to let the whole army arrest him. "

In fact, if Wei Qing didn't say anything, Zhang Yuan almost forgot about it.

"You have to let these guys kill the Huns for you, or at least take care of their health.

Why are the Huns so tall and brave, each of them is bigger than you, don’t they still eat meat all day long?

If the soldiers of our Qimen Army want not to fall into a disadvantage when facing the enemy Huns, they must first improve their health. "

Zhang Yuan had never seen the Huns, so he made up this nonsense, but it is certain that the northerners are stronger than the southerners.

Especially in ancient times, those nomads were definitely stronger than the Han people.

Wei Qing didn't object, which means he agreed with Zhang Yuan's statement, but he still looked suspicious.

Zhang Yuan didn't know how to continue explaining for a moment, saw a small soldier passing by, and waved him to come over.

"General, long history."

The pawn greeted Wei Qing and Zhang Yuan and said.

"Take off your shirt."

Zhang Yuan ordered.The pawn froze in place, rubbed his hands together in embarrassment, and looked at Wei Qing.

Wei Qing stared and shouted fiercely.

"If you are told to take it off, you will take it off. The military order is like a mountain, don't you understand the order and prohibition?"

Thinking of what Zhang Yuan did yesterday, the pawn trembled all over, and immediately took off his upper body armor and inner lining.

Seeing the pawn's body as thin as ribs, Zhang Yuan knew that he was right.

"General, please take off your shirt too."

When others were around, Zhang Yuan would call Wei Qing a general or an official name, and Wei Qing would do the same, and he would call him as usual when there was no one else.

Hearing what Zhang Yuan said, Wei Qing was also taken aback for a moment, and stared fiercely.

"Should I take it off too?"

Zhang Yuan nodded.

"Procrastinate, the contrast will be obvious after taking it off."

Wei Qing looked at the pawn next to him, and couldn't bear to damage Zhang Yuan's prestige, so he also took off the armor and inner lining of his upper body.

Although Wei Qing suffered a lot when he was a child, since Wei Zifu entered the palace, Wei Qing's living conditions are different from those when he was young.

After so many years of nutritional supplements, his physical condition has completely recovered, and with the usual training, he will be a handsome man in the future.

Looking at Wei Qing's tendons, Zhang Yuan touched his stomach again, and could only sigh, but he didn't have the slightest thought of exercising.

"What do you eat on weekdays, and what is the allocation of military rations in the army?"

Zhang Yuan asked the pawn.

"Looking back at the long history, the villain usually has some steamed buns, and then there will be a bowl of porridge with pickles.

Occasionally, when traveling with His Majesty to hunt, there will be some prey as rewards for everyone, and then they can eat meat. "

The pawn replied honestly.

His awe of Zhang Yuan was greater than that of Wei Qing, and he listened to Zhang Yuan even if he didn't see Wei Qing.

Zhang Yuan turned his head away and started asking Wei Qing again.

"Is the general indispensable to eating meat every day?"

Seeing the obvious contrast in front of him, Wei Qing nodded thoughtfully.

Seeing Wei Qing's affirmative answer, Zhang Yuan knew that Wei Qing probably understood the intention in his heart.

"Okay, put on your clothes and go back."

The pawn nodded confusedly, said yes to Zhang Yuan, and then retreated.

"How is it? Young brother, you have figured out why I let these soldiers go to capture wild animals first."

Zhang Yuan asked Wei Qing with a smile.

"Younger brother understands, elder brother's talent is far beyond what younger brother can match.

Brother, do you want these soldiers to make up for the deficiencies in their bodies, so that they can start normal training after they are strong? "

Wei Qing said to Zhang Yuan adoringly.

Zhang Yuan shook his head.

"The purpose of capturing wild animals is to obtain meat and make them stronger.

The second is to let them engage in actual battles. Some beasts are no more stupid than humans.

If all the crossbows and arrows in the general were confiscated, and these soldiers were asked to capture wild animals, there would definitely be casualties.

Compared with the Huns, the beasts had no weapons. If they knew how to use weapons, the [-] soldiers of the Unscheduled Gate Army would have died more. "
