War is a "meat grinder" for young adults who were farmers a second ago, if you want to survive from the battlefield, you must learn the skills of surviving on the battlefield, the Qin army fights, the queue is neat, the order is forbidden, if someone disobeys the command in the queue, they will be killed on the spot, and every time the Qin army goes, it will first use the rain of arrows with strong bows and crossbows to "open the way", and then the advance of the military formation.

Therefore, most of these new soldiers have to start training from the queue, but this also has benefits, take a few hoes to act as a spear first, and use a wooden shield as a shield, time is in a hurry, Ye Shikai understands this, the new ordnance is in a hurry, and even the training volume of the team has increased, maybe one day to go to the front, maybe a week, maybe three days, maybe tomorrow, it's possible.

Advance, retreat, cover, but on the battlefield, more soldiers are still concerned about two points, one, naturally whether they can save their lives, and second, that is, to kill the enemy army, obtain the title of military merit, and then reward or something, and it is precisely because of the advantages of the system that the Qin army from top to bottom, whether it is a general or a pawn, has the motivation to kill the enemy.

Of course, it doesn't mean that everyone thinks so, after Qin destroyed the Six Kingdoms, many soldiers from the Six Nations also joined the army, they saw the war with their own eyes, and they didn't think about how to fight to get military merits, but more about how to save their lives, and even how to avoid going to the battlefield.

Ye Shikai's eyes fell on the somewhat weak soldier just now, when he said this just now, he was obviously afraid of war, and everyone present was a young man from the same township, so Ye Shikai didn't ask to the end, saving him face.

Speaking of which, Ye Shikai can understand that military merit is his own, but he also has to take his life, if he doesn't even want his life for the sake of military merit, he is a gambler, and he is also a "bloodthirsty" gambler.

"Alright, let's all take a break. At noon, Ye Shikai looked at the scorching sun in the sky, it was July now, and the summer was in full swing, having said that, if you set off to the front line now, I am afraid that when you get there, it will be almost winter.

"Lao Ye, Lord Han's words, you didn't say it casually. While eating, Shangguan Jian suddenly asked, and Ye Shikai's chopsticks were suddenly beaten.

"I told Uncle He's family. Ye Shikai didn't lie, in fact, there were several soldiers and commanders under him, but they wouldn't talk nonsense, in the army, spreading "rumors" at will was enough to be beheaded.

"That's okay, they won't talk nonsense. Shangguan Jian didn't say anything, maybe he also saw the relationship between Ye Shikai and He Linghan, so he didn't say much.

"What Lord Han means, although our officers know the news of the upcoming war, they can't tell everyone that the big war is imminent, people's hearts are fluctuating, this is the most taboo, if the front line is tight, then the backyard can no longer catch fire. It seemed that he was still a little worried, and Shangguan Jian couldn't help but remind again.

"I understand what you mean. Ye Shikai interrupted him.

"That's good. ”

"I think tomorrow, the order from the county should arrive, and when the time comes, the three elders of the village, who have ranks, will start to raise grain and grass, and the pavilion chief will also start to transport conscripts, and our mission will soon begin. ”

Ye Shikai didn't say much, the big battle is imminent, if it wins, it will naturally be a good thing, if it is defeated, the northern wolf clan will break through the defense line of the Great Wall, at their speed, at most a month, they can kill here from Yandu, and the army of Qin is far away from the battlefield, and it will take time to mobilize, and how can the speed of the infantry be compared with the cavalry, relying on the garrison of the county alone, I am afraid it is not the opponent of the wolf clan.

And if the wolf clan breaks through the defense line of the Great Wall, it will be a plain, and the light cavalry can level the river with one horse, burn and loot in various villages, the situation is unimaginable, so the only way is to block the wolf clan from the Great Wall.

Perhaps it is precisely because of the critical situation of the war that the county guard will issue such an order, and Shangguan Jian is also "vaguely" reminding Ye Shikai.

If everyone knows that the border is in an emergency and in danger, then who can guarantee that no one will take the opportunity to fall into the grass, or whether those escorted conscripts will snatch military rations and ordnance and flee in all directions, if this is the case, then the border defense army will definitely collapse by itself.

Therefore, it is necessary to send garrisons to the border passes along with the conscripts, first, for supervision, and second, for the purpose of increasing the number of troops at the border gates.

"We have other tasks in the afternoon, come with me. After lunch, Shangguan Jian took Ye Shikai and a dozen sergeants to leave the training ground and went to a place that Ye Shikai had never been to.

"Where is this. Ye Shikai looked at the cave in front of him and asked curiously.

"You won't know when you go in. Shangguan Jian waved his hand, and immediately two sergeants lit torches to lead the way, and the group slowly entered the cave.

"So much food. When Ye Shikai saw the scene in the cave, he couldn't help but be shocked, a cave was full of grain bags, and it looked like there were a lot of them.

"It's just a thousand stone of grain, and if you see the granary of the border guards, it's really a lot. Shangguan Jian chuckled lightly, indeed, a granary that can store hundreds of thousands of people to eat for a whole winter must be spectacular.

"This is the grain depot of Sheung Shui Village, and these are also the grains saved by the villagers of Sheung Shui, in order to prevent the drought from running out of grain or to raise and levy military rations. Shangguan Jian explained to Ye Shikai.

"So, this is the lifeblood of the entire village, right? Ye Shikai nodded and touched the stored grain bag, if there were no these, the villagers in Sheung Shui would face starvation and even death, so it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a "lifeline".

"You can say that tomorrow and tomorrow the day after tomorrow may be the order of the village will come, in order to prevent accidents, there must be someone to guard here, and it must be heavily guarded, in case the fine work or robbers burn the grain and grass. ”

"Okay, I understand, I'll take someone to stay here, don't worry. Ye Shikai immediately understood that since this granary was related to the safety of the entire Shangshui Village, it was naturally to be guarded by reliable people.

"That's good, Chief Li Tun. Shangguan Jian suddenly turned around and shouted, and a man who looked like an officer came in response.

"The subordinates are here. ”

"Gather all your people here, take care of the grain depot, and one more thing, you also have to obey Ye Shichang's orders, understand? "Shangguan Jian's words are amazing, asking a tun chief to listen to the orders of a chief, I'm afraid it's the first time in Daqin.

"What. ”

"Is there anything else you don't understand, or is it that you are sure to win against Ye Shichang. Shangguan Jian scolded.

"Well, my subordinates obeyed. ”
