Chapter 117
However, in one night, Xu Hui had adjusted her mood, and she appeared in front of everyone the next day, without any sadness and loss. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 But Rao is like this, and when she heard the number of parts that Xu Ze wanted to allocate to her, she couldn't hide her surprise: "Two thousand? That's too much, right? ”
You must know that the 2,000 people Xu Ze allocated to her are not boring numbers that seem to be full on the official roster, but in fact, most of the airspace salaries are mixed with logistics personnel, and the real combat effectiveness is seriously reduced, and even half of the combat strength is not a boring number, but an elite unit that has received three years of training, has military discipline, understands orders, can understand flags, is more obedient to commands, and can also be equipped with iron weapons.
Even if Xu Hui, who had never been on the battlefield and had been familiar with the art of war since he was a child, and was familiar with military strategy, he also understood that such 2,000 people could coerce and drive more than ten times as many miscellaneous soldiers, militiamen, and farmers to participate in the battle. After two or three battles, the miscellaneous soldiers and militiamen who survived by luck were able to learn some skills to kill the enemy to a greater or lesser extent, and when the enemy army rushed over, they would not be so timid that they could not even wave their weapons. At this time, even if they are not elite soldiers, they can be regarded as veterans, and they can barely be called warriors, and they have become an important force in the Xu army of Shangdang.
Seeing Xu Hui's surprised appearance, Xu Ze bowed his head lightly and wrote lightly: "Taiyuan has always been rich, there are many people available, and there is a lot of grain in reserve. Dou Kai is greedy for money and lustful, and it is true that he loots the people, but he will not be sloppy in seeking pleasure and building private soldiers. Bringing more people, even if some food is wasted, is better than not having enough people. ”
Xu Hui was so clever in his mind, he naturally knew that Xu Ze's words were only half a sentence, and the second half of the sentence that was really important didn't need to be said explicitly, they could understand it.
Xu Ze is old, has high prestige, and is recognized as a famous person, and a benevolent elder in the hearts of the people. If he becomes the governor of the state, with his reputation and means, in the hearts of the people, against him, even if his reputation is not bad on weekdays, he will not be able to become a good person, not to mention that it is absolutely no problem for a famous person like Xu Ze to be a big zhongzheng, and in the future, even if he can't have the final say, he can make people vomit blood, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a word to determine life and death. If Xu Ze is given a few years, boiled frogs in warm water, and chopped meat with a soft knife, the good days of others will almost come to an end.
Contrary to Xu Ze, Dou Kai's reputation among the people is really bad, and he is also shrewd, but he doesn't have enough ability to swallow the entire state. What's more, Dou Kai is recognized as having no culture, and for the sake of his own face, even if the court sends a puppet over, it is impossible for him to be a big zhongzheng, which gives the opportunity to turn around in other counties.
can be the head of the family, no matter how cruel his temperament is, no matter how obsessed with women, no matter how indecisive, he will not be an unclear character, and he naturally knows how to choose the best for his family. Xu Huicai will not pin his hopes on the wait-and-see of others, so the Shangdang Xu family not only has to start a war with the Taiyuan Dou family, but also has to prevent other families from intervening.
Xu Hui knew that he had a heavy responsibility, so he subconsciously licked his lips that were not dry, swallowed another mouthful of saliva, and then said solemnly: "I will do my best to attack Taiyuan as soon as possible!" ”
"Although time is a little short, don't be eager to win, lose stability!" Xu Ze saw that she seemed to have made some decision, so he raised his voice slightly, and said with a straight face, "Guo Sheng is arrogant, when the new emperor is still the prince, he will be unpleasant to see him in every way, but for his own sake, he is just patient, I thought that after ascending the throne, Guo Sheng would taboo the imperial power and make concessions." Who would have expected that since the new emperor ascended the throne, Guo Sheng has intensified, and he doesn't take this nephew seriously. Even if there is a mess inside and outside the government and the opposition now, the relationship between the two people is gradually getting the same thing, and the new emperor sees Shen Fu, just like seeing his father, he calls him a 'royal brother' affectionately, and also makes his children call Shen Fu Huang Uncle...... Guo Sheng and Shen Fu were domineering, forbearing, and three scheming princes were stranded in Jiankang. If nothing else, no one is hot-headed, this good show may continue for some time. Ten days and a half months, no, one month and two months, we can still afford to drag on, you need to be good at mastering the proportions. ”
The procrastination in Xu Ze's mouth is what he and Xu Hui said before, with a limit of three months, and it sounds good to postpone it for so long. But Xu Hui and Xu Ze both understood that just the march of the army would have to deduct a month and a half, or even more. This also means that no matter how Xu Hui subordinates and how she divides her troops, the mistakes she can be allowed to make, even if they do not affect the battle situation, there will not be many small mistakes that will delay for a few days at most.
For Xu Ze's instructions, Xu Hui responded neatly, and then glanced at the angle of the sunlight falling on the window lattice, roughly estimated what time it was, and then hugged his fists and said: "The hour is not early, my granddaughter will go to change her clothes first, and then she will come." ”
Xu Ze nodded lightly, waved his hand to let Xu Hui retreat, Xu Hui strode back to his concise and neat, piled up with books, placed weapons, and really didn't have any daughter's breath, pursed his lips, and said without hesitation: "Take my armor!" Remember, it's the most complete set and nothing else! ”
"Girl-" Ah Yuan was taken aback and hurriedly said, "Your Excellency will be ...... soon You ......"
In order to establish prestige for his granddaughter, Xu Ze specially invited all the officials who would follow Xu Hui on the expedition, saying that it was a banquet, but in fact it was very beaten. In Ah Yuan's opinion, the banquet should be dressed in formal clothes, it is rare to wash up, how could he have thought that Xu Hui planned to wear thick armor to attend the banquet?
Xu Hui glanced at Ah Yuan and didn't say anything more, but Ah Yuan was immediately silent, and entered Xu Hui's weapon room with Ah Shuang, and together they took out the bright silver armor. Ah San and Ah Huan followed behind, holding out Xu Hui's helmet and fragments.
This set of armor is completely designed and built according to Xu Hui's body shape, the main parts of the upper body are connected with large pieces of iron pieces that have been tempered for thousands of years, and the arms and neck are connected with small pieces of iron pieces to reach the joints. The armor pieces with the waist downwards are slightly curved under the superb skills of the craftsmen, and several thick pieces of armor protect the outside of the thighs, ensuring that the legs can be firmly protected when riding.
When these nails are put down, they look like short skirts, which are not only solid, but also quite beautiful. But in any case, they only reached the knees, exposing Xu Hui's calves and forearms. Even if Xu Hui was in the armor, she had already put on close-fitting clothes, and she had also protected the joints with properly rubbed cowhides, it could not hide the fact that her defenses in these parts were relatively weak. After putting it on, Xu Hui rested for a while, and after getting used to the weight of the armor, she slowly opened her arms and let the dead soldiers tie her leggings and wrist guards.
If you put on a helmet, covered with armor, and wear cowhide boots, if the enemy wants to hurt Xu Hui, either you have to use heavy weapons, and your own strength is quite good, and you have to smash the armor into a dent, or you have to find the only exposed eye of Xu Hui. But regardless of whether there are sharpshooters of this level or not, it is also a little difficult to break through the defenses and hurt Xu Hui. It can be said that as long as Xu Hui wears this set of armor, the support can last longer.
Such a full-body, beyond this era, naturally needs to be made for a long time, and it is even more valuable, even as an heirloom of ordinary families, there is no problem. If it weren't for Xu Hui's memory of his body shape after he grew up, it would have been impossible to have it so quickly.
Ah Shuang held the helmet and wanted to bring it to Xu Hui, but was stopped by Xu Hui: "There is no need for the helmet and visor, you should also dress up neatly and go to the banquet with me." ”
Xu Hui said "neatly dressed" at the moment, naturally it was impossible for them to dress up as maids, and the four of them understood and put on their armor.
As pro-soldiers, their armor is different from that of the main general, and the cost is far lower than Xu Hui's arbitrary weapons and armor, but it is in line with the mainstream full-body armor of this era, but it is enough to be called of excellent quality. When Xu Hui walked into the main hall with the four of them, people with a little eyesight, especially martial arts, were nervous in their hearts.
Dealing with weapons and armor like them, they naturally know that this set of armor has amazing defensive power, amazing cost, and equally amazing weight. Even if Xu Ze thought about Xu Hui's body and ordered the craftsmen to think more about this, for the sake of adequate defense, the basic weight was still there. Not to mention a mentally handicapped woman, even a man with a slightly worse physique, wearing a set of armor, can barely carry it, let alone do anything. Xu Hui can wear it to walk freely, not to mention anything else, endurance must have been practiced day after day. The maid behind her, the weight of the armor behind her is naturally not as good as that on Xu Hui's body, but it is not something that a woman can bear freely.
Insiders, they are afraid of layman commands, seeing that Xu Hui has already made preparations, and even the dead soldiers and personal soldiers are prepared, even if they are dissatisfied in their hearts, there are one or two points less slander and resentment. After all, the existence of puppets and vases is also divided into good and bad, useful and chaotic, isn't it?
Xu Lin, who was sitting in the middle of the general's seat, couldn't help but sigh when he saw this.
He witnessed Xu Hui's growth, and also understood her persistence, from the beginning with dozens of tribulations everywhere to experience, search and suppress bandits, to now lead thousands of troops, the feeling is not deep. If other people still question Xu Hui's female identity, they feel that Xu Ze is too whimsical to let her suppress the formation, but Xu Lin is convinced of Xu Hui's. Perhaps because of his familiarity and trust in Xu Hui, Xu Ze chose to let him lead the tribe.
Thinking of this, Xu Lin glanced at Jiang Hua, who did not show the slightest look of shock and disdain beside him, and after a moment of thoughtfulness, he recovered his composure, and his heart was a little more stable.
For such a shocking thing in the eyes of the world, you can keep calm, the thousand-year-old Jiang family, the descendants of Emperor Yan, is really worthy of its name! (To be continued.) )
