A quarter of an hour later, Zhang Yue and Liu Jin and his entourage, led by an officer, entered the strict northern army camp.

The barracks occupy an extremely wide area, and the military tents stretch for four or five miles, and there are school yards all over them.

Even if the scorching sun is in the sky, there are still officers and non-commissioned officers practicing various basic tactics in various school fields.

Zhang Yue was amazed.

In any era, the combat effectiveness of an army is directly linked to the intensity of its training.

As for the age of cold weapons......

The intensity of training directly determines the outcome of a war.

A well-trained army, even if it is only a few thousand, is enough to sweep hundreds of thousands of rabble around like rabbits.

Even Liu Jin was deeply shocked by the scene in front of him.

He asked Zhang Yue in a low voice: "Zhang Shizhong, has the Northern Army always been trained like this?" ”

When Zhang Yue heard this, he shook his head and said, "I don't know, but it should be about the same......

"With such training, can the Northern Sergeant afford to eat?" Liu Jin was puzzled.

Zhang Yue was also strange, he knew very well that high-intensity training must ensure that the soldiers' nutrition can keep up.

An army that eats wheat rice and beans every day definitely doesn't want to maintain any training that is too intense.

For example, the army of the Ming Dynasty in later generations was already elite if it was able to drill every five days and every month.

Most of the Ming troops, even before going to the battlefield, did not receive systematic professional training at all.

As a result, hundreds of thousands of people, who were chased around like rabbits by tens of thousands of Jianzhou soldiers, and more than 100 Japanese soldiers could swagger to the city of Nanjing.

And the Northern Army of the Han Dynasty in front of him is terrifying, terrifying!

Almost every soldier in Zhang Yue's eyes was above seven feet five inches tall, with a strong body and a powerful force.

Most of the soldiers are very young.

Between the ages of twenty-five and thirty, this is the peak of the human male body.

What's even more terrifying is that in that school field, the soldiers' movements are uniform, and their attention has always maintained a high degree of concentration.

Few people even set their sights on Zhang Yue and his party.

This shows that this army is probably more than just food treatment, beyond Zhang Yue's imagination.

Their military discipline and tactical discipline will also subvert his imagination of the army in the era of cold weapons.

So, Zhang Yue took two steps forward, walked to the officer who brought them in, and asked, "Honorable, I don't know what the Northern Sergeant eats every day?" ”

"Meat, of course!" The other party looked at Zhang Yue like a fool, and said with a smile: "The servant won't even know about this, right?" ”

"During the Tianhan Dynasty, the second division general cut down Dawan and ate 100,000 cows at one time, which is known to the world!"

Zhang Yue and Liu Jin listened, and they both looked at each other!

In this era when ordinary people can't even fill their stomachs, the soldiers of the Northern Army actually have meat to eat!?

But the records in the history books he went back to seem to prove the truth of this matter.

In the history books, Huo Qubing once disliked that the beef brought by the envoy sent by the emperor to the labor army was not fresh enough, and all of them were lost......

When Li Guangli, the general of the second division, attacked Dawan, when today's son ordered Shaofu, he transferred 100,000 cattle to supply military supplies.

Li Ling was besieged by more than 80,000 troops led by the Xiongnu Shan Yu.

As a result, he led less than 5,000 infantry to fight with the main force of the Huns on Junji Mountain for several days, shooting and wounding at least 10,000 Huns.

Even, if it weren't for Li Ling's army, they would have shot all the arrows.

I'm afraid the Huns may not be able to eat his army.

So the question is, what did Li Lingbu, who was besieged on Junji Mountain, eat?

Ordinary food may not be able to replenish the physical strength required for days of high-intensity combat and breakthrough.

The only reliable answer is probably that Li Lingbu carried a large number of livestock with his army.

When Liu Jin heard this, he was shocked, and he looked at the continuous northern army camp.

Just the garrison of this Tianmen, I'm afraid there are 10,000 people.

How much food do they have to eat each day? How much meat do you need to satisfy them?

He muttered softly: "The country has no money, is it cost-effective to raise so many troops?" ”

In his heart, there was even a voice saying: "If you make peace with the Huns, you will be able to disarm hundreds of thousands, save countless military spending, and use it for people's livelihood!" ”

Zhang Yue's ears were sharp, and when he heard Liu Jin's self-talk, he thought about it, leaned over to Liu Jin's side, and said in a low voice: "Of course it's cost-effective!" ”

"The Han army is not only a sword to resist foreign aggression and expel Yidi, but also a strong shield to protect Sangzi and save the people from water, fire and misfortune!"

"In the Yuanguang, the river is decided at the mouth of the gourd, between Liang and Chu, the people of several counties have wailed and cried for more than 20 years, in the second year of the Yuan seal, the Son of Heaven returned from Mount Tai to seal Zen, passed the gourd's mouth, and saw the tragedy of the gourd break, which made the army bear firewood and bamboo, and jumped off the self-determination! More than 10,000 sergeants of the forbidden army from the general to the army, all of them were edicted, holding firewood to block the break, with three days' work, the break was finally closed, since the big river was restored to the old road, and the people of Liangchu turned the danger into safety! ”

"The tragedy of the Son of Heaven and the sacrifice of the wounded soldiers, so he wrote "The Song of the Gourd" ......"

This is a story that is clearly recorded in the history books.

As a traverser, Zhang Yue went through the history books and exhausted the history of mankind.

Only two armies were found, which used their bodies to block the breach and their lives to save the people.

One is the Han Forbidden Army, and the other is the people's soldiers two thousand years later.

As for the others......

The people suffered a disaster, and they did not take advantage of the fire to rob, and they were already the army of kings.

Known as the hope of mankind, the disaster relief of the Midi Lighthouse of the Earth is all about tanks opening the way and setting up machine guns to prevent the people from being revenge.

"There are four years of Yuan Feng, there is a great drought in the eastern part of the country, locusts are everywhere, and two million displaced people gather outside Hangu Pass to be fed, including 400,000 people without household registration, it is the Northern Army that gave up their barracks and garrisons, and gave their clothes to the people, so that the people can have a place to live...... Zhang Yue looked at Liu Jin and said: "Your Highness still thinks it's not cost-effective?" ”

Of course, in fact, the tide of displaced people in the fourth year of Yuan Feng, and even the gourd break, actually had a lot to do with Liu's own policies.

In particular, the gourd break is not so much a natural disaster as a man-made disaster.

However, these things have nothing to do with the Han army.

After listening to this, Liu Jin was stunned again.

Again, his teachers never spoke to him about these things.

They will only tell themselves that 'the martial arts are vulgar and cannot ......be approached', and they will only say that 'the martial arts are domineering, harming the country and the people'.

But now, in Zhang Yue's mouth, he knows.

There was once a group of soldiers who jumped down from the river with firewood and pacified the angry dragon with their flesh and life.

There used to be soldiers who vacated their camps and garrisons and gave them to homeless people.

Compared with these soldiers who held firewood, regardless of life and death, jumped into the mouth of the raging river.

Compared with these soldiers who silently vacated their camps and gave up their barracks to the common people to live in.

My own teachers seem to be very ...... Vile......
