Good looking highly recommended: Under the rule of the Huashan Army today, everything is developing in a good direction, if you don't care about the enemy army outside. Thanks to this, Li Xin's prestige in the army is naturally getting higher and higher.

Not only in the army, but also in the hearts of the people, due to Wang Meng's deliberate propaganda, everyone also knows that they can have such a stable life now, all thanks to this captain.

Next to the barracks upstream of the water, Li Xin trained the soldiers as usual. Now, after his discipline has improved greatly, he has begun to focus on training his soldiers in their ability to kill enemies. Especially the bow and arrow, you have to practice it often.

In addition, swords, shields and spears are the most commonly used things, and they should not be neglected. Li Xin led people to use straw men and sparring to continuously improve the combat ability of the soldiers. Although the weather is already much colder, everyone is often in full swing and sweating under training.

Today's soldiers of the Huashan Army have more unified equipment in their hands, and the quality of this equipment has been greatly improved due to iron ore mining. Although it is far less sophisticated than all the equipment of those powerful forces, at least it can be self-sufficient. This is a very important matter, after all, an army that cannot even support logistics will definitely not be able to sustain itself for a long time.

At this point, just look at the Eastern Jin Dynasty court, which has lost so many battles, but has always been able to organize a large army. It is because behind the scenes, there is at least one Eastern Jin Dynasty court supplying materials and armaments.

This is also the reason why Li Xin did not immediately expand the army, because his current strength is only so great. If the army is expanded all at once, I am afraid that everyone will only be able to go to the battlefield with burning sticks, and in the face of the fierce Di Qin soldiers, it is simply no different from sending them to death.

"Kill, kill, kill........!" On the flat ground below the mountain, everyone shouted, treating the straw men in front of them as enemies one by one, glaring angrily, waving the weapons in their hands and killing them fiercely.

"It seems that everyone is now accustomed to the intensity of this kind of training, and they are no longer tired all day long like they did at the beginning!" Next to Li Xin, Liao Chuan, the commander of the fifth battalion, said, after seeing everyone training at this time.

Although the Huashan Army had five battalions, when it came to training, Li Xin was usually personally responsible for training. If he is not there, it will be the generals below who will carry it out. Therefore, there are more than 5,000 people in the current Huashan Army, and basically everyone knows him as a captain, and almost half of them are a little afraid of him. There is no way, when the recruits are training, he really abuses everyone.

"If you get used to it, then let's make it more serious, our training today is all for tomorrow to be able to come back from the battlefield. No one knows what kind of enemy we will encounter, and we can't ask the enemy to be weaker, so we can only keep asking ourselves to be stronger. Sweat more in peacetime, bleed less in wartime, I have said this sentence many times! Li Xin didn't have a happy look at this, and said lightly.

"Well, I'm going to slowly increase the amount of training after that!" Hearing this, Liao Chuan couldn't help but smile bitterly and said.

He knew that what Li Xin said was right, but he was somewhat helpless, because he had to join in himself. One of the biggest differences between the Huashan Army and other armies of this era is probably that the soldiers and generals are roughly equal!

It is precisely because of this that the soldiers basically support their superiors. Because these people who serve as captains are either the most active and hard-working people in training and the best results on weekdays, or they are people who have really made meritorious contributions on the battlefield. It is precisely the existence of these backbones that ensures the strong combat effectiveness of the Huashan Army.

"I'll leave the training here to you, and I still have to go around the places, and I haven't been there for days." Li Xin nodded and said.

Basically, he makes rounds every five days. Under normal circumstances, starting from the training camp, first go east to Huayin City, then west to Fuxi County, and then Zheng County, all the way to the past.

After the explanation, he set off with a few of his own soldiers. Now the Huashan Army has become more and more regular, starting from the team generals, they all have pro-soldier standards. There are two in the team, there will be four in the team, there will be eight captains, and there are twelve personal soldiers in his captain, including the heralds, of course!

In addition, since he was in charge of more than 5,000 people, it was natural that there would be a group of scribes under his command. Otherwise, once you have something to contact or issue an official document, you will never have to draft everything yourself. Moreover, it is conceivable that after the scale of the Huashan Army expands again in the future, the number of people under his command will inevitably become more and more.

Zhou Tong's words there, there are no big problems, and they are basically calm. But Zhou Tong was a little worried, because as the weather became colder and colder, he was afraid that the Weishui would freeze, and the enemy might take the opportunity to kill him. With the strength of the Huashan Army, if there is no Weishui to block it, if the Qin people attack on all fronts, this defense line will be very weak.

"There's no way around that, it depends on whether God gives you a way to live. However, once it really freezes, the soldiers with good water properties we recruited before should come in handy, just chisel off the ice on the river! Li Xin was not so worried about this, and came up with an idea.

Is this a good idea? Of course, it was a helpless move. However, such a method still has an effect. Because in history, when the strength of Yuwentai in the Western Wei Dynasty was weaker, in order to block the attack of Gao Huan of the Eastern Wei Dynasty, he did this along the Yellow River. Later, the Western Wei Dynasty became stronger, and it became the Eastern Wei Dynasty that chiseled ice on the Yellow River.

Moreover, the latitude of this Weishui is lower than that of the Yellow River, and the temperature is naturally higher. Although the temperature in Guanzhong during this period was lower than in later generations, in general, there were not many ice periods. Especially if you want to form the kind of thick ice that can pass through the army, that is even more unlikely.

After learning about it, Li Xin went all the way to Li Erhei, and now, the defense line has been strengthened a lot. In particular, the first protective wall was more than two meters thick and three or four meters high, almost no different from the city wall. Li Erhei led people to patrol this line of defense day and night, so that the enemy on the opposite side would not have a chance to take advantage of it.

"What's going on lately? Are the soldiers at the bottom okay? "Along this line of defense all the way south, Li Xin asked.

"It's all good, since the new clothes were issued, this problem of keeping out the cold has at least been solved. I didn't let them fall behind in the daily training. Li Erhei replied.

"That's good! By the way, are the guys on the other side still honest? Nodding, Li Xin looked in the direction of Fu Jing's camp in the distance.

"It's okay overall, but it seems like I've been starting to move a bit lately. For a few days, we all noticed that someone on the other side had sneaked across the river in the dark, apparently to find out what was going on. Two days ago, Fu Jing also sent a few hundred people to attack, and we released a few arrows, and after a few people died, the other side retreated. Li Erhei thought for a moment before he said.

"It seems that he can't bear it anymore! This is obviously a test of us, either to see how we respond to their attacks, or to see if we can provoke us and make us rush down and fight them! Hearing this, Li Xin pondered for a moment, and probably understood the other party's thoughts.

As a new general who took over the Fufa army, Fu Jing had never fought against the Huashan Army, so naturally he didn't know so much about the Huashan Army. Not to mention that he was defeated by the Huashan Army in several battles before, which was enough to attract his attention. If it were just an ordinary rebellion, I am afraid that after he took over the army, he would immediately order an attack. From this point, it can also be seen that this Fu Jing is not a reckless person.

"Yes! I think so too! So, it's basically just a matter of releasing arrows, and if the other party is not afraid of death, it would be good to rush over. Anyway, I just know that now that this line of defense is guarded, he can't do anything about us. Li Erhei nodded.

"Report, two generals, Di Qin's soldiers and horses are here again!" While the two were talking, a soldier ran over and reported it.

"Check it out!" Hearing this, the two looked at each other, then turned and hurried in the direction of the protective wall.

Soon, they heard shouts of killing from below, and the two of them stood on the top of the cliff, watching the battle below. I saw that there were about seven or eight hundred Di Qin soldiers, holding shields in one hand and swords and spears and other weapons in the other, rushing towards the protective wall. The leader of the team looks like he should be a general, and these Qin soldiers also brought ladders over to climb the protective wall.

"It's prepared! Unexpectedly, every soldier is equipped with a shield, and those Qin soldiers from the last time were not so well equipped! After looking at it, Li Xin said lightly.

"The Qin soldiers who have come here have been like this for the past few times, and each time it is a little different. Take, for example, the number of people! The first time, it was only one or two hundred, but by the second time, it was three or four hundred! Obviously, their numbers are increasing every time! Li Erhei was on the side, but he didn't look strange at all.

"If you want to use this method to test our limits, Fu Jing is afraid that she thinks too simply! You see, they seem to be watching over there, too! Hearing this, Li Xin couldn't help but shake his head, raised his head and glanced in the direction of the enemy camp, just in time to see someone on the west bank of the river looking up the mountain.

The few people on the west bank of the water are naturally Fu Jing and them. These days, whenever there is an attack, they come here to observe. In addition to the protective wall, the focus is on the situation on the top of the mountain. By now, they already understood that the command center of the Huashan Army's water defense line should be there. 166 Reading Network
