Chapter 202: Equipment

Lu Xiaoxian turned his head and glanced at Chen Xuanli, who lowered his head.

Although Chen Xuanli reluctantly agreed to Lu Xiaoxian to join the Guangwu United Army, he was still very resistant to Lu Xiaoxian's decision in his heart.

How can the dignified Yulin be transformed into a solidarity soldier?

But if you don't agree, it won't work, Your Majesty's order is to let Chen Xuanli go all out to ensure Lu Xiaoxian's safety, if you don't join the unity army, how can you protect him, you can't resist the order, right?

At this moment, the scars on the chests of these veterans deeply stimulated Chen Xuanli, they are the ones who are truly worthy of respect, compared with the false name of the Yulin Army, their honor is a real honor.

Chai Liu said proudly: "Master Lu, you can see clearly, our wounds are all on the chest, and there is not a single scar on the back!" ”

Bravely move forward to kill the enemy, and the scars will be on the chest. Cowering and retreating and running away, it is possible to leave a scar on the back, how could Lu Xiaoxian not hear the meaning of Chai Liu's words?

Lu Xiaoxian remembered what Guo Zhen had said, and he asked Chai Liu: "Uncle Chai, have we got our equipment?" ”

Hearing Lu Xiaoxian's words, Chai Liu's face darkened, sighed, and did not speak.

Lu Xiaoxian knew in his heart that their equipment must not have been found, so he asked again: "Uncle Chai, since you have all been on the battlefield, you must know what equipment the government soldiers must equip, right?" ”

"Of course I know!" Chai Liu nodded.

"Can you tell me more about that?"

Chai Liu asked strangely: "Young Master Lu, what are you asking these for?" ”

"Of course, we want to give all the equipment that should be equipped for more than 200 of us!" Lu Xiaoxian said with a smile.

"That's not necessary!" Chai Liu shook his head, "Lu Gongzi doesn't know, the unity soldiers are different from the government soldiers, many equipment unity soldiers don't need it, as long as there are some basic things!" ”

"That's not going to work!" Lu Xiaoxian said very resolutely, "Since we are going to the battlefield, we must be fully prepared, and the more we prepare, the more we have the chance to save our lives. ”

"How much money does that cost?" Chai Liu's eyes widened.

In addition to dry food, many of the equipment provided by the Zhichong Prefecture were provided. But unity soldiers are different from recruitment, all equipment has to be borne by themselves, that is, they have to spend real money to buy it. Two hundred, indeed, cost a lot of silver.

"Don't worry, I'll pay for the money, you just need to tell me what equipment you have!"

Lu Xiaoxian's words are not bragging, when he came, Zhang Yizhi's brother gave him a lot of silver tickets, and he didn't spend much along the way? Now you need silver, which comes in handy.

For Lu Xiaoxian, the things that can be solved with money are nothing!

Chai Liu looked at Lu Xiaoxian in a daze, and seemed to be a little unconvinced.

Lu Xiaoxian sighed and said to Chai Liu: "Uncle Chai, let's go to the battlefield together, no matter how old or young we are, we are comrades-in-arms, this is a kind of fate." You have done enough for the country, and since I have promised to join you, I will bring you all back in peace, so that you can live out your old age in peace! This amount of money is really nothing compared to what you have paid! ”

Hearing Lu Xiaoxian's words, Chai Liu's lips trembled, and he was speechless for a long time.

Over the years, these veterans have fought everywhere for the imperial court, and the food they eat as soldiers is the share of licking blood at the tip of a knife, they have always thought that this is their duty, and no one has ever praised them. Today, I can hear such a high evaluation of them, and there are people who think about them so much, even if they die, it is worth it.

Chai Liu knelt down in front of Lu Xiaoxian: "Master Lu, on behalf of these old brothers, thank you, thank you!" ”

After that, Chai Liu howled and cried.

The veterans also fell to their knees, hugged their heads and cried.

Lu Xiaoxian's tears couldn't help but flow, these people have gone through so many tests of life and death on the battlefield, and they have never shed a single tear. I just did something trivial to make them so grateful. In the final analysis, it is Datang who owes them too much, and they are the real backbone of Datang's majesty.

……

"For every ten people, prepare six horses, and these six horses are mainly for transportation, not riding!" Chai Liu began to introduce Lu Xiaoxian to the deployment of government soldiers.

Lu Xiaoxian frowned, "Ten people, six horses?" ”

Seeing this, Chai Liu hurriedly said: "Six horses have to spend a lot of silver, if it really can't be done, it is okay to prepare six donkeys, you have to carry a lot of things." ”

Lu Xiaoxian waved his hand and said, "Uncle Chai, you will be mistaken, I mean that ten people and six horses are definitely not enough, at least twenty horses." Ten of the horses were used to carry things, and the other ten horses were each used to ride! ”

Chai Liu thought that he had heard it wrong, and stared blankly at Lu Xiaoxian without speaking.

Seeing Chai Liu's expression, Lu Xiaoxian asked with some confusion: "What?" Uncle Chai, don't you all know how to ride a horse? ”

As soon as Chai Liuyi heard this, he was not happy: "What are you talking about?" Back then, which of us wasn't begging for a living right away? Although he has not been in battle for many years, the old foundation of horseback riding is still there! ”

"Isn't this the end of it?" Lu Xiaoxian said to Guo Zhen on the side, "Write it down, hurry up and write it down, two hundred people need a total of four hundred horses!" ”

Guo Zhen was temporarily pulled by Lu Xiaoxian to make a cameo appearance as a maintenance officer, he felt funny when he heard it, but he was not sloppy at all, and recorded all the items he needed according to Lu Xiaoxian's requirements.

"Iron Horse? Uncle Chai, what does this horse bowl do? Feed the horses? Lu Xiaoxian scratched his head and asked.

Chai Liu said with a smile: "Of course it's not for horses, it's for people to eat, and the reason why it's called a horse bowl is because it's very big and can hold a lot of rice." It is a cloth trough that feeds the horse, and the manger made of cloth is used for the horse to eat, and it is more convenient to feed the horse with a cloth trough during the march! ”

Lu Xiaoxian is considered to have seen a lot, he smiled dumbly, and said to Guo Zhen: "Hurry up, write down, Ma Yu, and the cloth trough!" ”

Chai Liu came one by one like a few treasures: "You have to bring the tools to make a fire, and you have to use it for eating and heating on the way; Then there is the tent, which is used to camp and sleep; Then there is the shovel, which is used for digging the earth, and it is necessary to rely on it to set up camps, dig trenches, and dig pits; Then there is the  head, which is used for plowing soil; Then there are chisels, axes, pliers, saws, sickles, the same one, which are used when opening the road. Oh, and bring a few baskets! ”

"What are you doing with baskets?" Lu Xiaoxian was confused.

"Of course it works!" Chai Liu said seriously, "The basket is used to hold things!" Especially if you win a battle, how can you hold loot without a basket? ”

When Lu Xiaoxian heard this, he almost didn't laugh, these old people went to the battlefield, it would be good if they could save their lives and come back alive, and they still wanted to win the battle to load the spoils?
