Chapter 2: Brothers are Meeting
The next day, Feng Daiwen woke up and was already on the clock.
"Second Young Master, you're awake," Feng Daiwen just pushed open the door when a girl dressed as a minority said happily.
Visually inspect the girl's 13.4-year-old appearance, about 1.4 meters tall, wearing silver jewelry on her head, wearing a half-sleeved vest skirt-style dress, her arms leaking a lot, her skin is a very healthy wheat complexion (in other words, you can't find a person who is not swarthy and wheat-colored in Lingnan, even if it is a lady from a large family, it can't be said to be white and tender) The skirt only covers the knees, the little girl is a sultry orphan, she was adopted by a beggar surnamed Lin since she was a child, and the beggar has been living on the street since she died, and was inadvertently adopted into the house by the predecessor five years ago, and has been responsible for taking care of the predecessor, the predecessor gave her a name Yaya, and the old beggar surname is called Lin Yaya.
"Yaya, why haven't you grown taller in half a year," Feng Daiwen joked with a wicked smile as he stretched out his hand and rubbed Yaya's hair vigorously.
"Oh, Second Young Master, I've been messing up my hair for a long time and you've messed it up again," the little girl shook her head like a rattle and pouted, "Second Young Master is hungry, Yaya will bring you food right away," After speaking, the little girl ran away.
After Feng Daiwen finished eating, he asked the location of the eldest brother Feng Daizhi and went directly to the eldest brother's courtyard.
Feng Daizhi was holding a bamboo roll under the tree in the front yard and looked at it intently.
"Big brother is so Yaxing, and he's studying knowledge again." Feng Daiwen shouted with a smile from afar.
"Second brother! You are here" Feng Daizhi got up elegantly and smiled helplessly: "Second brother, you said that you used to love to read, and you wrote good calligraphy, how come you only love to practice martial arts like the fifth brother after being struck by lightning." ”
Feng Daiwen's face couldn't help but darken, and he secretly said in his heart: As a junior high school graduate of nine-year compulsory education, who can stand to hold bamboo slips and read ancient texts every day, the ancients used bamboo slips to record and write books, so they need to be very concise, often a few words can be explained to the meaning of hundreds of words, it is very difficult to read and understand the articles of the ancients, and I can't read it without good patience.
But as a modern person who creates all kinds of antique weapons, who doesn't love martial arts, although it is said that you can't fly the eaves and walk the wall, but think about this era of fierce beasts everywhere, there is no outstanding martial arts at every turn, and there is really no sense of security, in fact, I also understand that although there are martial arts, but they are not as powerful as in TV, and they have to exercise since childhood, fortunately, this body foundation is good, and the average soldier is looking at the strength, that is well equipped, most people in ancient times lived a difficult life, but it is also because life is difficult, It is not easy to survive, because many people are physically stronger than modern people,
"Big brother, the younger brother has been away from home for more than half a year, I don't know if it's good lately, but there are any problems that need the younger brother to serve. The third brother, how is the fourth brother doing? Feng Dawen asked;
"Second brother, the eldest brother is about to tell you in detail, your restored Zhuge repeater has been successful, and it can currently do one crossbow and three arrows, and you only need to replace the arrow box after shooting, but our Lingnan is humid and rainy, and there is no assembly, as long as it takes two days, you can assemble 5,000 arrows, and there are 100,000 arrows in reserve, and the steelmaking blast furnace you modified, at present, the blacksmith workshop has been widely used, and the forged weapons are much stronger than before," Feng Daizhi said and walked to the weapon rack to take down a long sword and handed it over.
Feng Daiwen took the long sword and looked at it carefully for a while, flicked his fingers, and said: "It's not bad, barely reaching 100 steel, big brother, I will stay in the blacksmith workshop and the three-season rice experimental field to guide them well, maybe the war is not far away." ”
"Oh, what news did the second brother receive?" Feng Daizhi asked unexpectedly.
"Big brother, the battle between the prince and the king of Qin is becoming more and more obvious, it is said that the prince used a trick to transfer many generals from the Qin Palace, intending to overthrow the king of Qin. The King of Qin will not sit still, there will be an injury between the two, presumably the Turks will not sit idly by, they will inevitably come to Kouguan, and at that time it will be the time when our Feng family will become famous in the world, no matter who is in charge of the Middle Palace, it is inseparable from the food and military support of our Feng family. ”
After a pause, Feng Daiwen continued, "Big brother, you have to work hard, and the shipyard needs at least 100 big ships ready to transport troops at any time. With the third brother to train 50,000 elite soldiers next summer at the latest, it will be of great use at that time, recently when I went to see the fourth and fifth children after the arrangement, I will take the fifth to Chang'an, trouble the eldest brother told Aya to prepare 1 million stones of grain and 500,000 stones of sea salt for me. I'm going to go to see the fourth child."
"Okay, no problem, big brother will take care of everything for you. With the current situation in Lingnan, the eldest brother will definitely give you 50,000 elite soldiers next year," Feng Daizhi said with a confident smile.
"Okay, big brother, little brother farewell," Feng Daiwen said happily when he heard what Feng Daizhi said.
Walking out of the small courtyard, Feng Daiwen said to the generals who followed: "Gather the iron guard, let's go to Aizhou",
Aiju is located in the mountainous area of Thanh Hoa, Vietnam, but there is an easy-to-mine open-pit coal mine and several small iron ore mines. Therefore, Feng Daiwen set up the blacksmith workshop there, and the experimental field of seeds was also located there, which was easy to manage, and the fourth brother Feng Daijin and the fifth Feng Daihuo brought 5,000 soldiers and horses to train in Tuntian, and the iron guard was 100 personal guards carefully selected by Feng Daiwen.
Ten days later, outside the camp in the north of the city.
"Hurry up and report it, the second son is here." A group of more than 100 knights stopped at a large camp and shouted at a distance.
"Stop, I'll report it right away," someone at the gate of the camp immediately replied. Maybe it's because the soldiers and horses of the Feng Ziqi battalion are not nervous, but they are still ready to fly.
Feng Daiwen couldn't help nodding secretly when he saw this, and ordered to get off the horse and rest, waiting.
However, in a moment, two people rushed out of the kung fu camp, one was burly in armor, the other was naked, and the bronzed skin was all muscular, strong but not fat. The two rushed to Feng Daiwen's side and shouted happily: "Fourth brother, (fifth brother) has seen the second brother." The excitement is indescribable.
Feng Daiwen stepped forward and hugged each of them, "Fourth, fifth." Yes, yes, second brother just watched, you are all very good. ”
The fourth child touched his head with a smile and said, "Second brother, you haven't been here for a long time," the fifth brother was wooden and kept smiling on the side. Because when I was a child, my father took my eldest brother and sultry people all the year round, and slang people fought wars to quell chaos, and the third, fourth, and fifth were all my more fart worms, so I was the closest to me.
"Second brother, let's go into the camp and take a look, our elephant training has been successful, and there are 800 war elephants in the barracks," the fourth child said excitedly, just like a child who did something to show his skills in front of adults.
"Really?" Feng Daiwen couldn't help but be happy.
When they came to the school grounds, the soldiers rode several elephants. The fourth elder said: "Second brother, look, this war elephant is composed of a rider and two archers, and when he charges into battle, he is wearing rattan armor, and the war elephant is following up the infantry. ”
"Not bad, not bad," Feng Daiwen stepped forward to see that these war elephants were all Asian male elephants, dressed in rattan armor and the riders on them were at least more than three meters tall, and the pressure on several elephants lined up in a row was not ordinary, if you hadn't seen the elephant's ,,,,,, it would be fun...
"Second brother, at present, there are 1,500 elephant soldiers, 3,000 infantry, 5,000 auxiliaries, and 500 logistics for a total of 10,000 soldiers and horses. Because the second brother ordered the two crops of rice to be shared with the Xiao family, Xiao Teng was very supportive of our training. The fourth Feng Dai Jin said:
"Very good fourth brother, you have done a good job, the second brother came to visit you this time, but also to go to the blacksmith workshop and experimental field to see, the fifth brother and I will go back, and I will enter Beijing with me in the near future. You have to worry more about the fourth brother here. Feng Daiwen said happily for his younger brother;
"No problem, second brother, don't worry, I will definitely handle the things you explain," Feng Daijin patted his chest vigorously and said:
Feng Daiwen looked at the brother in front of him and was also full of emotion, he used to have only one sister in modern society, and when he came here, he had a few more brothers who were close to him, and he couldn't help but quickly integrate into the Tang Dynasty, and the three brothers were drunk at night. ,,,,
