Sand Slipper nodded, walked forward with the medicine box on his back and said, "The prince will go and settle down first, and Biak and I will take care of the prince." Aka-sama thinks that he has not slept all night, so he doesn't need to be here with me, just have me. The King of the North Sea bowed his head, looked at Aka and said, "Let's go, go with this king, I just want to ask you something." "Your Ministers obey." Aka nodded in response, saluted Xia Xing respectfully, and turned to leave with the King of the North Sea.

Xia Xing walked closer, raised his hand to test the temperature of Xia Han's forehead, frowned, and said, "It's a little hot, stop the bleeding first, I'll ask someone to prepare hot water." After that, he took out the medicine from his sleeve pocket and put it next to Xia Han's pillow, "The rest of the antidote pills are in it." Then he nodded to the sandboard and strode away.

Aka's little servant hurriedly chased out the door, "Princess, princess......" Xia Xing stopped and turned around, "What's the matter?" The little servant said nervously: "Princess Gu'an, the slave is the attendant of Lord Aka, uh, the slave knows where the barracks are, the slave takes the princess there, and the slave can bring a bucket of hot water back." Xia Xing nodded, "Okay, I know, lead the way." The little guy was instantly overjoyed and hurriedly ran to the left front to lead the way.

"Princess's side...... This is...... You see...... Princess, in the distance is the school grounds, where the soldiers go out for drills. "Xia Xing looked around, the soldiers who were densely packed into a pile were listening to the training, there were tens of thousands of people, the scene was magnificent, and the shouts were shocking." I think today's training is complete, and the meal will be opened after the instructor's review. "Yes, Princess. In winter, the days are cold, so the morning is out of the exercise, the drill is finished and the meal is opened, after the meal is the horseback archery and weapons drill, and the later day begins to arrange the troops and fight. ”

Xia Xing nodded, "That's the case, who stipulated it?" The little servant said respectfully: "It's the little general Bato, the son of the King of Beihai, and he is the right-hand man of Prince Xia Yan." Hearing that the adults said that this morning training soldiers should be able to improve their individual qualities, and in the afternoon they would train their teamwork and command ability of generals at all levels, General Bato proposed it very early. He said that this kind of training is comprehensive and effective, and it not only cultivates the tacit understanding between the soldiers and the commander-in-chief, but also improves their personal ability in the drills again and again, killing two birds with one stone. ”

Brother Barto, you're pretty powerful now, aren't you? Also, big brother...... Xia Xing suddenly felt a little cold, tugged his cloak inward and said, "But, it's not going well, is it?" The little guy clapped his hands and said excitedly: "Yes!" Oh, yes! Princess, you are so clever! The little ones don't understand, why would anyone object to such a good thing? The king of Zhongzhou is against it, General Lu is against it, and even our adults and the king of Beihai are against it, and the national teacher is barely half supportive, so we should postpone this matter for a few years before discussing it. ”

Xia Xing smiled and continued walking, "No matter what, in the end, it was successful." It is not easy to implement a policy in a country, General Lu and your family are just thinking about it comprehensively, as long as you stick to everything, there will always be results. The little guy nodded, "Yes! The little general Bato insisted on mentioning it every once in a while, but fortunately, the national teacher fulfilled his promise and helped him make the speech in the spring of the year before, and finally the king decided to experiment in the summer and autumn, and this year it began to continue in the winter. ”

Xia Xing sighed, "That's it, it's not bad...... "When there is no war, the army will be lax, especially Beiyan, where there is not enough grain and grass, and there are only two meals in the military camp in winter, one meal and one meal of rice soup. At this time, in order to reduce physical exertion and alleviate hunger, it is almost once a few days to exercise, and each time will not exceed an hour. The other three seasons were only half a day of training. Now, grain and grass are the problem.

Xia Xing pondered and asked, "I look at the situation on the school field, there are thirty or forty thousand soldiers stationed on the border?" The servant replied: "No, I heard that the general said that the military camp is now about 27,000 people. My lord also said this time that he would let General Shangzheng recruit some new soldiers, and the border should be regulated by 30,000 people to guard the frontier, and the border city ten miles away from here should be regulated by 20,000 people. The two major gateways connecting Huaguo and Xiliang in Northern Yan have always been guarded by 50,000 soldiers each, but along the way, there are 2,000 people in the border city and 3,000 people in the border, adding up to 5,000. ”

Xia Xing frowned, "It's a lot, what did he say?" "The little guy spread his hands," General Shangzheng is also very helpless, the army has not been full, and everyone will be hungry if they recruit more people, and now that countries do not invade each other, they don't need many soldiers, so the barracks are reluctant to recruit new soldiers. The general said that because this is the border, the roads are barren and there is little food and clothing, and even if they go to recruit, no one wants to come. ”

Xia Xing pressed the wound on his arm that was frozen and aching, pressed it hard, and thought as he walked. It's still a matter of food and clothing, my method is applicable in the long run, and it always takes some time to overdo it, so there will be not enough food in the next year or two, and there will still be people starving. Since Emperor Jing is interested in the second brother, I wonder if he can get some rice grain from Huaguo at that time? There is also southern Xinjiang, and someone should always be sent to visit King Jiang.

If Beiyan wants to recover, it must solve the two major difficulties of food and clothing. "Princess, here, this is the room." Xia Xing retracted his scattered thoughts and looked at the place in front of him that was now lively. The people inside noticed it and looked out of the door at the same time, glanced at Xia Xing curiously, and then turned their eyes to the little guy, "Little brother, you came just in time, the rice is just cooked." Is the patient in Aka-sama's room awake? Shall I prepare a nest for two or three for you? And the young lady next to you, what does she want to eat? ”

Xia Xing smiled and asked, "Then what kind of dinner was made here?" The man rubbed his hands and said solemnly: "Miss, here is stewed meat, wotou, and milk tea in the morning, and now there are only wotou and broth, and the soup is stewed meat in the morning." Xiao Wu explained: "Because I have to start training after lunch in the morning and go to bed directly after eating in the afternoon, I arrange this arrangement in the evening to save food." ”

Xia Xing nodded, "Oh, I don't eat anything, is there boiling water here?" The man hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, how much do you want?" The little guy stepped forward and said, "Big brother, fill me with a bucket first." "Well, it's not enough to come back." While the man was talking, he had already poured most of the bucket one by one, and finally added a large scoop and handed it to the little servant. The little guy took the barrel and left with Xia Xing.

Inside Acre's tent. When Xia Xing and Xiaowu came back, Sand Skating and Bijaq had already stopped Xia Han's bleeding, but the scene was a little unbearable to look at, Xia Han's back and legs were full of blood and small black pieces of condensed medicine powder. Xia Xing said worriedly: "Why did you shed so much blood?" Bijak said distressedly: "Princess, don't you see the pile of bandages that Lord Acre replaced, the prince has really lost too much blood this time." ”

Sand Skateboard casually took off the middle coat on the shelf and covered it on Xia Han's body, turned around and said: "Princess, His Royal Highness the Prince needs medicine to nourish qi and blood, he is too weak now, you can follow me to the military doctor to see if there is any medicine that can be used." Xia Xing nodded and said, "Okay, let's go now." Bijac, you and your attendant take good care of the second brother, boiling water has been fetched, help him clean up the wound well, and reapply the medicine to bandage it. ”

Bijac: "Yes! Xia Xing and sandboarding went straight to the military doctor's tent, but unfortunately there were not a few flavors of medicine there, let alone medicine to nourish qi and replenish blood. Just when the two were disappointed, the military doctor picked and searched, and mysteriously took out two cordyceps sinensis from a wooden box in a clay pot in the corner. The corners of Xia Xing's mouth twitched, took it from his hand, pinched one in one hand and asked, "Is there anything else?" ”

The military doctor shook his head firmly, "No, absolutely nothing...... Princess, there really is no ...... It's really ......" Sandslider shook his head at Xia Xing and said, "No, although this is a good thing, it is not the medicine that the prince needs at the moment." It doesn't have much effect, but there is no other choice now, it's better to use it than not to use it, let's go back to decoction first, with those few antidote pills should allow the prince to hold out to Tao Jinlai. ”

Xia Xing nodded helplessly, took the small medicine jar and left with the sandslide. The two walked in the empty night, "It gets dark so fast." "Hmm! Princess, give me the medicine jar, and be careful of freezing your hands. "Here you go, speaking of frozen hands, does Xia Han's hands and feet have chilblains? I saw that his ears were so red and swollen that he had cracked several times. "Yes, it was said that it was late at night when they found the prince, and the prince was lying on the ground with cold cold, and his wounds were inflamed from the cold, and he was afraid that he would have to stay here a little longer."

Xia Xing stopped, "But if it weren't for the cold weather and the frozen wound, Xia Han would have dried up his blood a long time ago." I was too careless this time, Xia Han encountered definitely a lot of interceptors, originally I thought there would only be two batches, just dodge, but after Xia Han left, we encountered three groups of assassins in the same place. You said, how many times did he encounter it, dodged it a few times, and hit it a few times before he got hurt like this. ”

Sandslider shook his head, "I don't know, princess." However, at that time, it was the best way to cover the prince's departure, and you can see with your own eyes how dangerous it is from yesterday to today, starting from leaving Huaguohu County and entering the desert, along the way, we have experienced a full eighteen attacks and killings, and then we have reached the border of Beiyan. There were nine times in the first twenty-seven days, and nine times in the next five days, and the closer we got to the Northern Yan attack, the more intensive the killing, and we had no choice. ”

。。。。。。

The next day, as dusk approached, Tao Jin and Bingning returned. As soon as Xia Xing heard the news, he immediately rushed out of the tent and ran to the carriage containing the medicine, "Why is it so fast?" Bing Ning smiled and said: "Of course, it's because Aunt Bitao is not at ease, so they ran to the thorn bush and rushed back overnight, Vice General Xun and I were also surprised when we saw Tao Jin halfway." ”

Xia Xing nodded perfunctorily, and said while pushing the enthusiastic Bing Ning away: "Okay, okay, Tao Jin, hurry up and drive the sandboarding carriage to the tent decorated with yellow and white broken steps over there, hurry up!" Sandboarding is urgent! "Yes!" Tao Jin heard the anxiety in Xia Xing's tone, and knew that someone must have been seriously injured, so he jumped into the carriage immediately, pulled the reins and patted the horse, and headed towards Acre's tent royal car.
