Fortunately, the centurions who led the sword soldiers were all fierce generals, usually well-trained, and they all held up their shields and gritted their teeth to resist the boulders that were thrown.

However, Zhang Xingran's side was not so lucky, the spearmen only had simple iron helmets as protection, and after some were hit, even their heads were smashed to pieces, which was miserable.

temporarily repelled the attack of the Li family's army, but it was the Sui army that suffered more casualties.

The setting sun was drowsy, and the dead and wounded sergeants were carried and buried by sergeants from both sides.

The earth was sprinkled with blood, and everywhere was red.

"General Xia, I'm sorry, at first I thought you were joking, but I didn't expect to really use the method of infantry against cavalry to defeat the enemy!"

"This is the most wonderful battle I have ever seen, General Xia not only has a strategy, but also is brave, one person kills three generals of the other party."

The warriors Xun and Tian Chong competed to praise Xia Yu, but Xia Yu did not have the slightest surprise on his face, but looked out of the military tent with a worried face.

Outside, the sky is still overcast, and it is estimated that a heavy snowstorm is coming.

After Tian Chong and the samurai were gone, Li Shimin and Xia Yu were left in the military tent, and both of them had heavy expressions.

"If nothing else, I'm afraid the sky will change again in the next few days!"

Li Shimin and Xia Yu's strategy was originally to capture Wuwei City and obtain grain and grass from here.

The next morning, after getting up, Xia Yu saw snowflakes outside, and the world was covered in silver makeup.

Riding a horse to the gate of the Sui army, I saw the enemy hanging up the anti-battle card.

When he returned to the barracks, he was sullen.

Li Shimin said bitterly: "Presumably, my brother and they are also hindered by the heavy snow and can't fight." Our progress has all come to a halt. ”

Although he was laughing, his smile was bitter.

Xia Yu said: "Let's go out to patrol the camp and have a look." ”

Li Shimin stood up: "Let's go." ”

They walked around outside, and Li Shimin's eyes were still looking at Wuwei City from afar, unwilling.

Xia Yu originally wanted Li Shimin to be in a better mood, but seeing him like this, he simply pulled him into a military camp: "Let's go see what the sergeants are doing." ”

When I came to a military camp, I saw a sergeant sitting on the edge of the bed, and the moment he saw Xia Yu open the camp tent, the sergeant hurriedly covered his feet with a quilt.

The panicked eyes fell on Xia Yu's eyes, Xia Yu couldn't help but feel that something was wrong, and forcibly uncovered the quilt, only to see that the sergeant's feet were frozen black and purple, and there was a pus wound under the soles of his feet, which was full of thick pus.

Obviously, the cotton shoes of the late Sui Dynasty were not rubber soles, but cloth soles, and they were often trampled on in the snow, and the snow water soaked into the feet through the soles of the cotton shoes, and the soldiers' feet were frostbitten.

Li Shimin was secretly sad when he saw it, and the sergeants had all endured such great pain. He took out the basin from under the bed, poured hot water into it, and pressed the sergeant's foot: "Come, I'll burn your feet!" ”

"Third son, how can you wash my feet as a noble person?" The sergeant struggled to retract his feet, but was held down by Li Shimin.

The way to deal with pus is to wash the pus from the soles of the feet, and then apply sore medicine.

Xia Yu stood aside, watching the sergeant try his best to endure the great pain, and he didn't snort, and his heart was also uncomfortable.

When Li Shimin was washing his feet, the military doctor in the army opened the door curtain and came in, stunned for a moment.

After taking the knife sore medicine, Li Shimin saw that there was a huge pit on the sole of the other party's foot, and all the flesh inside before turned into pus: "Does it hurt?" ”

The sergeant shook his head with tears in his eyes.

Turning his head and seeing the arrival of the military doctor, Li Shimin saluted the military doctor: "Mr. Zhou, let's take a step to speak." ”

Outside the barracks, Li Shimin asked: "Are there many cases in the army like that sergeant?" ”

Mr. Zhou nodded heavily: "Three out of ten people have this kind of chilblains, and I remember that the most serious sergeant has had his feet amputated." ”

The two were talking here, and Feng Yi, the grain and grass supervisor, came to report the situation again: "Third son, the grain and grass in the army are only enough to eat for half a month, if we don't capture Wuwei City, I'm afraid we will face the problem of starvation." ”

Once there is no food, it means that the sergeants will not have enough to eat, their morale will be sluggish, and they will not be able to attack themselves when the time comes.

Li Shimin's dark and calm face was even more disturbing.

Xia Yu, who was by Li Shimin's side, also stayed up all night, although he knew that the final result would inevitably be that the Li family would win the world, but the current problem had to be solved.

I don't know what bugs happened in the mobile phone reader, and when Xia Yu exhausted two hours of reading time, what he got was a plastic raincoat and an aunt's towel in half a room.

A plastic raincoat can isolate the snow outside, so that the snowflakes can't get on the body, what is the use of the aunt towel? Xia Yu really couldn't think of it.

Xia Yu had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and remembered that he had seen a video of survival in the wilderness before, which talked about survivors in the snow would put an aunt's towel under their feet.

Xia Yu came to Li Shimin's military tent barefoot, asked him to gather the sergeants, and each of them was given a plastic raincoat.

Of course, they don't know what the aunt towel is for.

Xia Yu ordered them to put the aunt's towel in their hands into the sole of their shoes as an insoles, and after the sergeants did so, Xia Yu's merits were praised in the army.

"General Xia is so powerful, I don't know where to find such a thing, it's soft on the soles of his feet."

A sergeant stepped on the snow vigorously: "After the snow water is absorbed by this thing, it feels like the soles of my feet are still dry, it's so comfortable!" ”

"And this dress given by Xia Yujun, the snowflakes can't fall on the body at all, and it's much better than our raincoat."

After solving the problem of chilblains in the army, Xia Yu carefully analyzed Zhang Xingran, a guard general, who could use a catapult to drop stones when the two sides were fighting, and he must be a person who was happy and selfish.

Since the enemy does not take the initiative to attack, then, create an opportunity for the enemy to take the initiative to attack!

He already had a plan in his heart, so he went back to Li Shimin's barracks and opened his mouth to say: "Brother Li, let's retreat!" ”

Li Shimin, who was studying the military book, seemed to have long been accustomed to Xia Yu's surprising words, and was not surprised by this words, but said with a smile: "Brother Xia, you and I have thought together." ”

A smile spread across their faces, and their fingers pointed to a spot on the military topographic map, called Twin Sheep Valley.

"General, Li Shimin has begun to retreat." A military academy that was spying on the military situation entered Bu Guiyuan's camp tent, and said in surprise: "I went to Li Shimin's front to reconnoiter the enemy situation just now, and I saw from a distance that the Li family's pot stove was much less.
