Niu Jinda originally wanted to come here to find Li Ke to talk about things in the barracks, Li Ke now has a position in the Niu Jinda camp, although he said that he doesn't have to **** to run into the barracks, but Li Ke's time in the army is much more than the time in the court, and now that it is the end of the year, it is time to say whether it is time to give the soldiers in the barracks two days off.

As soon as he walked here, Niu Jinda heard Xuan Shijing's words about the topography of Tubo and the Tang Dynasty sergeants were very passive in Tubo, Xuan Shijing was right, the Tang Dynasty soldiers could not enter the territory of Tubo, once they entered the plateau, without the enemy to attack, it was already eight hundred, in the territory of Tubo, the strength of the Tang army was sharply reduced by at least seventy percent, and there were not four out of ten who could fight, and this problem also gave many veterans a headache.

Hearing Xuan Shijing's words, Niu Jinda couldn't wait to see what insights this Dongshan Marquis, who had been favored by His Majesty since he was a child and was a genius, had any opinions.

If someone else said this, Niu Jinda would only think that he was eye-catching, but Xuan Shijing was different, Niu Jinda watched Xuan Shijing grow up to be four years old, and then Xuan Shijing lived in West Kunlun for more than ten years, maybe he really managed to help the Tang Dynasty's army overcome this difficulty.

The soldiers in the Tang army are all strong and healthy, and when they arrive in Tibet, they also feel suffocated in their chests and can't breathe. Xuan Shijing's body is definitely not as strong as the Tang Dynasty soldiers, but he has lived in West Kunlun for more than ten years, and Niu Jinda thinks of this, so he will ask the question in his heart.

"Uncle Niu." Seeing Niu Jinda coming, Xuan Shijing hurriedly got up and saluted.

"General Niu." Fang Yiai also bowed together.

Seeing that Fang Yiai and Xuan Shijing were together, behaving in a gentle and elegant manner, Niu Jinda couldn't help but show a satisfied smile: "Yes, the second boy of the Fang family knows that he has made progress, and he finally no longer mixes with that kid of the Du family." ”

The kid of the Du family, naturally refers to Du He, of course Du He also participated in today's banquet, but now Du He is still with Li Yuanchang and others, and he has not come to find Fang Yi again.

"Jing'er, what you just said, the Tang army can only defend passively against the Tibetan army, but what is the solution? Uncle knows that you have lived in West Kunlun for more than ten years, so you should have some skills. Niu Jinda continued the topic just now.

Xuan Shijing smiled: "Uncle Niu, in fact, there is nothing to do, think about it, why do the Tubo people adapt to it on the plateau?" And to be honest, the physical strength of the Tubo people is generally stronger than that of my Tang soldiers, which is actually related to the environment in which they live. ”

Niu Jinda nodded and motioned for Xuan Shijing to continue.

"Just like the grassland people are good at riding and shooting, and the Guanzhong people are good at defending the city and arranging troops, they can be regarded as having their own strengths, and Tubo is not only able to marry the advantage of the battlefield by relying on the terrain, but also the physical fitness of their soldiers is also extremely good."

Xuan Shijing had heard that long-distance runners would collectively go to the plateau for special training before the race, just to let them adapt to the normal body functions under the conditions of lack of oxygen.

To use a simple analogy, it is like turning it up, and two sandbags weighing more than ten pounds have been tied to the calves for training, and when you suddenly take off the sandbags one day, you will find that your body is much lighter than before.

It's a very palpable feeling.

If Datang does not have Wei Guogong or other battlefield generals, even if it is against the Tubo army on the plain, the odds of victory are five to five, which is already counting the advantages of Datang in arranging troops.

"That's right, the old man has also fought against the Tubo people on the battlefield, if it is a real knife and a real gun, even the old man dare not say that he is eighty percent sure." Niu Jinda said.

In fact, the generals of the Tang Dynasty faced the enemy on the battle array, and they would never use a hard-hitting approach unless they had to, and the battle-hardened generals all understood the importance of soldiers' lives, eating and living together in the barracks, even if they were a firehead army, they also had feelings for each other, and the soldiers were brothers in life and death, and who would be so careless about their brothers' lives to do that reckless thing.

"The plateau is relatively high, especially in Tubo, the entire territory of Tubo is full of endless mountain ranges, the terrain is so high, it must be the air is thin, and the Tang sergeants who are usually used to living on the plains are most prone to hypoxia, that is, poor breathing." Xuan Shijing said.

"Well, yes, not to mention those sergeants, even the old man feels very uncomfortable."

Of course, Xuan Shijing did not say that altitude sickness is not only due to lack of oxygen, but also to ultraviolet radiation, etc., but even if this kind of thing is said, Niu Jinda will not understand.

When Xuan Shijing entered the plateau for exploration, in order to overcome altitude sickness, he deliberately lived in the plateau area with his teammates for several months to adapt.

After entering the plateau, ordinary people will have headaches, dizziness, tinnitus, general fatigue, difficulty walking, difficulty falling asleep and other symptoms, and more in the eyes will appear bloating, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, palpitation, shortness of breath, etc., etc., Xuan Shijing at that time was not less tortured, the conditions at that time were naturally more than ten times better than the current Datang, there were oxygen bags, and various medicines, so after staying on the plateau for five or six days, it returned to normal, and after a few months, it has fully adapted to the climate of the plateau. It's no different from being in the plains.

Datang does not have an oxygen bag, as for the medicine to lower blood pressure and relieve headaches, you can find Sun Simiao to prescribe a prescription, but there are tens of thousands of people in an army, how many medicines can there be?

Therefore, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty must suffer some sins if they want to overcome altitude sickness, and it is impossible for the Tubo people to let the army of the Tang Dynasty adapt to the climate of their country in their territory.

Because the army of the Tang Dynasty adapted to the local climate, the little bit of time and place in Tibet was lost.

"Uncle Niu, if the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty want to be like ordinary people in Tubo, I am afraid they will suffer a lot of crimes, when the little nephew was in West Kunlun, when he went up the mountain, he had a headache and dizziness, his whole body was weak, and he was so nauseous that he even vomited out the food he ate in the morning, fortunately, Yuan Daochang had been prescribing medicine to the little nephew for conditioning, so he barely lived there, however, the little nephew was weak, and this reaction was also in common sense, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, as long as they gradually adapted to life on the plateau, it should not be a big problem." Xuan Shijing said.

"Oh? So how to train? Niu Jinda asked.

"Uncle Niu, on this occasion today, it is not suitable to talk about the way of military training, how about another day? Another day, the little nephew will sort out some of the experience of living on the plateau and send it to Uncle Niu's mansion, how about it? Xuan Shijing said.

"Well, that's good." Niu Jinda looked around, and then he reacted, now it is at the state banquet. (To be continued.) )
