A small room, with dim light, and a low sound of suppressed breathing, occasionally someone can't stop sticking their heads out to see if anyone is paying attention, and in this dim and small room, you can still vaguely hear someone talking in a low voice. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info The combination of various factors will undoubtedly lead to the idea that someone must be plotting......

"I think that the people sent by the Son of Heaven are scribes for three reasons: one must be to trust the princess Jing and believe that she can control everything; The second is that although the scribe is weak, he is resourceful, and the good planner intends to find out; The third is that the Son of Heaven is showing his importance to the adults. ”

Obviously, Lin Bin felt that Gongsun Hong's first two words were right, but the last one was absolutely impossible.

"I said Koga, what have you been doing with that probe in your head?"

"Without it, Wangfenger!"

Lin Bin suddenly felt like an idiot, or Jiahe was an idiot. Obviously, this secret room is in the bedroom, and there are soldiers guarding the door outside, do you need a probe to probe your brain?

The so-called knowledge of encountering things, after encountering a lot of things, Lin Bin, who never likes to think, has also begun to learn to think, he is slowly learning how to transfer from the position of a soldier to a general. After Lin Bin encountered so many things, he not only learned what it means to be ruthless, but also learned the way people got along in ancient times, which is a subconscious change, and the parties concerned can't notice it at all.

"I'm asking, if the logistics and other miscellaneous matters are handed over to the civil officials from Chang'an, will it have a big impact on us!"

was very depressed, although Lin Bin understood the name of the official position. However, they still do not understand the responsibilities depicted in classical Chinese, and now there are generally no special restrictions on official positions under 1,000 stones, or they are too jumpy. It's basically similar to the modern 'including but not limited to so-and-so, so-and-so', which is a vague literal interpretation.

For example, the official position of the chief bookkeeper is to manage the miscellaneous affairs of officials, so what is miscellaneous and what is not miscellaneous affairs? Lin Bin once thought that the main book was a 'no matter what the minister', he could manage anything, no matter what. Lin Bin asked later, and finally really understood that the main book was usually a dry meal. Only when the army goes out on the expedition will they take care of private property, family, houses, and so on in the rear for the generals and others.

Gongsun Hong blinked his eyes, hesitating in his heart, he knew a lot about these. But he didn't know how to say it, at the beginning, he claimed to Lin Bin that he was a Daijun Ranger, and later showed knowledge beyond the ranger's cognition many times, if it weren't for Lin Bin, he really didn't know some things in this era. I'm afraid he won't be able to hide his true identity for a long time. In order to achieve certain purposes. Sensing Lin Bin's change again, he knew that he couldn't show his flaws again, so he could only continue to cover it up, and only said some analyses that ordinary people would think of.

"First of all, what do you think? If you want to stay in the Han realm, it has no impact, and if you want to spread your wings in the grassland and soar in the sky, you need to guard against it. The army is the first to pay attention to grain and straw, and the army will be annihilated if there is no grain and straw; Grainmakers. The first device. Therefore, if you want to be in charge of the military, you will think that you want to be in charge of the military. There must be a way to find grain. ”

Lin Bin silently looked at Gongsun Hong, whose lips were still opening and closing, looking at the person who had been with him for the longest time, hoping to get some inspiration from him.

"I want to stay in Hanjing, but I'm afraid some people don't want to. Now Chang'an's gate valve has been talking about the princess, and even we have been infiltrated into the story, and we may still be one of the heavyweight supporting roles. It's winter, and Chang'an is also in the tense phase of political competition. The emperor's promulgation of the recruitment order made the Han Kingdom boiling, and the gate valve is not available to take care of us now, but there will inevitably be movement in the spring. After the beginning of spring, I want to fulfill my promise to the emperor and lead my army out of the fortress to visit the terrain. ”

Lin Bin's words were not finished, he knew that now the Xiongnu were fighting against the Western Regions Alliance, and now it was the era of cold weapons, a war could not be fought in three years and five years, he wanted to take advantage of the opportunity that the Xiongnu could not look eastward to attack the war potential of the nomads on the border of the Han Kingdom, and to save as many captives as possible.

Lin Bin got a large number of horses from the robbery, and now the number of horses is the standard of a country's war potential, for himself and for this nation that can make him fight, he can get two benefits, and there is nothing wrong with doing so much. The most important thing is that the nomads on the border of the Han State are now, and most of the tribes have a small number of warriors, as long as they choose correctly, they can achieve the role of training the army.

The captive Han people were generally very good at riding because they needed to herd for the nomads, and they could be recruited as cavalry without spending time on training, and they were a potential force that no one cared about. The so-called accumulation of small amounts, save and save, if it takes a long time, it will naturally merge into a large army - a tiger and wolf-like army with a strong hatred for foreign races!

Lin Bin knows that it will be very difficult to choose such a path, but for him, it is better to risk death outside and increase his power because he does not understand politics and plunges into it to ashes. This is a world that speaks with strength, once Lin Bin has a strong army, the gate lord will not dare to offend easily, of course, while increasing strength, it is necessary to make the Son of Heaven think that this army is in the hands of trustworthy people, so that the Son of Heaven feels that he can mobilize this army at any time when he wants to mobilize, and the difficulty is not ordinary.

Now that he has guessed the current thoughts of today's son, and learned the temperament of the Son of Heaven from some historical records, Lin Bin's first priority now is to gain Liu Jing's trust. He thought strangely, "Get back to be a mother-in-law?" Then he laughed to himself, whoever became the husband of the mother-in-law must be sad for the rest of his life, no one likes a woman who is too smart, especially that woman is too strong.

Lin Bin had a little headache when he thought of that crazy woman, he knew that women were very free and open at this time, but he just didn't think about being free and letting go to such an extent. He never said the ridiculous things that Liu Jing did, and Liu Jing naturally didn't talk about it, forming a weird secret that couldn't be said, which greatly increased the friendship trust between the two, but also had a disadvantage. That is Liu Jing's trend of becoming more and more intense, and she actually asked "You dare to accept it" to give away a Weng master? Too bold!

"That's not right!"

The sudden shout made Gongsun Hong and Jia He turn their heads to look at Lin Bin, but they saw Lin Bin constantly circling in a small space. It's like there's a problem.

The cloud-like status quo, Lin Bin slowly recalled Liu Jing's expression when he said that sentence, and in his impression, although Liu Jing said with a smile, there was obvious displeasure in his eyes, and after speaking, he looked at himself like a cold-blooded animal staring at the prey under his control, like a polar prey that would be ruthlessly hunted as long as the answer was wrong.

"What the hell is the madwoman going to do? What is the emperor going to do? ”

Lin Bin felt that logically speaking, Liu Yicui's arrival should be a signal. It was as if the Son of Heaven was conveying something to himself, or warning him. He hadn't read Liu Jing's letter to the Son of Heaven, so he had no way to guess the Son of Heaven's impression of him. But I can also clearly feel that it has now come to the 'critical moment' that Liu Jing has been saying before, and it is difficult to guess the royal family's thoughts, and it is definitely not as simple as Liu Jing to send Liu Yicui here......

"Was it really given to me?"

Jiahe heard Lin Bin's self-talk, "My lord." What is it for you? ”

"Lord Weng!"

“……”

Gongsun Hong and Jiahe looked like they wanted to laugh. It is clear that they think this is impossible. Lin Bin also thought that it was impossible, who was he, why did the Son of Heaven use the royal daughter to win over a person who had never even met?

"So what is the owner of Weng Yicui doing in the icy and snowy northern frontier? Did Liu Jing ask her to come? Or did the emperor ask her to come? ”

This is a question worth thinking about, if it is the emperor, then there is no need to guess, probably it is really sent to be a mother-in-law. If Liu Jing asked Liu Yicui to come here, the article in it would be big, and it is likely that Liu Yicui is also a character who is not easy to get along with, and she must have her superiority.

Lin Bin couldn't ask clearly. He didn't want to go on and on the topic either.

"How many sets of armor and how many weapons can be prepared before the beginning of spring?"

"Three thousand scales, and so is the vest. This is what the adults strictly order. There are also eight thousand leather armor. There is no plan for the robes. two thousand crossbow machines; 50,000 crossbow arrows, 10,000 carved bows, horn end bows, road bows, and strong bows; 500,000 arrows. 5,000 horizontal knives, 20,000 spears, and 50,000 weapons. ”

"So much!"

"It is a device made by the national examination orders of various ministries and counties, and it is not Shiyan alone."

Lin Bin groaned for a while, and became more and more confused about the military strength of the Han State, which was shrinking in one county, and could build so many military equipment in three months, so why did the workshops in so many counties and counties in the country produce so few weapons in peacetime?

The Han Kingdom is really rich, there is no shortage of metal and no lack of advanced technology, but due to the relationship of national policy, the implementation is still Huang Lao's inaction, basically does not advocate the movement of armor soldiers, when there is no turmoil, it is always routine to make some equipment for storage, the quantity is not very large, once there is a war will be ordered to rush a large number of systems.

The military strength of the country is inevitably linked to its national policy. Under the national policy of "indisputable to the people", the Han State was rich, but compared with the founding period, the military strength was also constantly reduced because of this policy, in addition to the border fortress has been a large number of supplementary soldiers, the interior is also in several important passes with heavy troops, a large number of young and strong people are generally in the local 'pawn', that is, in the local service, after a certain period of time will be turned into 'pawn', that is, the need to carry out conscription of reservists, need to serve for the county for a month of labor.

The projects of labor include the repair of roads and bridges, the digging of rivers and canals, the construction of city walls, and the transfer of transportation, because the state has always not allocated funds for these infrastructures, and can only be completed by local governors without pay to make local guards.

Since the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the non-commissioned officers of the Southern Army, who were responsible for the palace guards, were recruited from the county every year to serve as 'regular soldiers' in accordance with the track of the conscription system. Every man of military age may be drafted into the Kyoto Division to serve as a sergeant guarding the Imperial Palace for a period of one year. Therefore, the guards who guarded the palace were strangers with accents from all over the world.

As for the Northern Army, that is, professional soldiers, they are all Chang'an and Sanfu people, who have grown up in prosperous places for many years, and their education is better than that of other foreign counties and counties, and their lives are also rich, which explains why the Northern Army has a sense of pride. The people of the capital of every dynasty regarded the non-people of the capital as soil buns, and this sense of superiority was difficult to explain clearly.

The Southern Army and the Northern Army were drawn from different sources. It has its own profound meaning. The children of peasant families from other counties went to the capital to protect the palace, but because they came from afar, they could not integrate with the local people in Beijing; Within the Southern Army, soldiers from all over the country were among them. The language and living habits are also different, and the service period is only one year, so it is difficult to achieve close communication, so it is not easy to cause collective rebellion. And the families, relatives and friends, and ancestral graves of the children of Sanfu are all on this land, and they will affect the whole body. With this kind of concern, the children of Sanfu stationed in the capital division will not easily take risks and insult their relatives.

Having said so much. What should be explained is that the central power now has only these two standing armies, and the armor and weapons consumed are not much, and the burden is not large. So where did the rest of the equipment go? Very obvious. In addition to raising the northern and southern armies, the central power also has direct control over an army, that is, the border army that defends the border, and it is the northern Xinjiang that is often harassed now, and the central power must also take care of the supply of the border army for the sake of national security. Therefore, most of the areas close to the side plug have workshops. The aim was to reduce the distance of transportation and replenish the front line with military supplies at any time, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the 'Haw Par Cavalry', which was playing between the border forces, could get those supplies within three months.

"Son of Heaven ......" Lin Bin rubbed his temples, "What does the Son of Heaven mean by doing this?" ”

To put it simply, the Son of Heaven was moved after hearing what Liu Jing described, an army of less than 10,000 can 'obtain' nearly 20,000 horses and livestock after wandering in the grassland for four months, and in the era when the military strength of a country is measured by the number of horses, the demand for war horses for a Son of Heaven who wants to make a difference must be endless. From here, it is not difficult to guess the intentions of the Son of Heaven.

It is human nature to plunder, and it is the so-called law of the jungle. A 100-fold return on risk. Seeing that there are benefits, he must be willing to take a little risk, and what the Son of Heaven hears is still the 'foolproof' promised by his sister, and Liu Che is a bold monarch, everything is thought of, and the situation is clear.

*****************************************************************************

After a period of fruitless negotiation, Lin Bin walked out of the city tower, he walked in the city with confusion, listening to the shouting and killing of the soldiers during training, and touching the drill figure as far as his eyes could see.

"Three thousand iron horsemen plus five thousand rangers can sweep most of the small and medium-sized tribes on the border, right?"

Lin Bin paused and looked forward, where dozens of soldiers were forming a circle, where shouts were endless, and occasional laughter was heard. Lin Bin, the soldier is probably playing tricks after training. Soldiers who don't need to be trained will make trouble if they are idle, so Lin Bin vigorously advocated the whole game of some entertainment and physical training, and at this time there are already all kinds of entertainment activities, and the soldiers naturally can't dance songs and dances, and there is no doubt that Jiaodui has become one of the more popular entertainment items.

Of course, Lin Bin is more puzzled by a kind of entertainment called Keju, which is a kind of dual-purpose sports activity, which requires kicking the ball with his feet, kicking it close to the hanging goal, and then squatting down and grabbing the ball with his hands and throwing it into a wooden board that hangs in the air about two and a half meters in the air and has a hole in the middle.

The leather ball used in Kemari is an oval-shaped sphere filled with hair from animal skins. This kind of activity requires a special stadium, which is specified as a rectangle in the east ~ west direction, and six symmetrical 'bow domains' are also called 'bow rooms' at each end, each guarded by one person, which means that only six people in a team can play.

Lin Bin now walked to the side of a fenced court, he walked up to the high place built by the wooden platform, where many soldiers gathered to watch, the soldiers saw Lin Bin coming and stood up, Lin Bin smiled and smiled in response to the greetings of the soldiers. He looked down at the two teams of soldiers in the field. Looking at this, it was found that the red team was actually led by Han Shuo, and the yellow team was actually an honest man Chen Yi. Of course, the Northern Army led by Han Shuo was very proficient in this kind of keju, and under his leadership, it fought a one-sided situation of 20 to 0 with the Huang team led by Chen Yi.

"Miserable ......"

Lin Bin turned around and saw that it was Chang Diaochong who spoke, "What's so miserable?" If you lose, you can practice again. ”

Chang Diaochong smiled, "The subordinate admires the general's mind, but I don't know how the general thinks the sergeant of the Northern Army compares to his general's subordinates?" ”

After Qin unified the Six Kingdoms, the Keju movement fell silent for a while. After the establishment of the Western Han Dynasty. Revival and prosperity. The Han Dynasty regarded Keju as a way to "govern the country and practice martial arts", and it was not only widely practiced in the army, but also among the court nobility. It is recorded in "Xijing Miscellaneous Records": After Liu Bang became the emperor. took his father Liu Taigong to the Weiyang Palace in Chang'an City for the elderly, and his food and clothing were extremely luxurious, and he watched Kabuki music all day long. But he was not satisfied, and he was depressed all day long. It turned out that Mrs. Liu had lived in the lower strata of the city since he was a child, close to ordinary pawns, slaughtering dogs and cattle, and his after-work entertainment activities were inseparable from cockfighting and juju. So, Liu Bang made a holy decree. In the east of Chang'an City, a new city was built in imitation of the scale of the original Peixian Fengyi. All the residents of Fengyi were moved to the new city, and Liu Taigong and Liu Wen also moved there. began to "fight cocks and bow for joy" again, and then I was satisfied.

If the royal nobles and wealthy lords regarded Keju as a kind of entertainment, after the introduction of Keju activities into the army, it became a means of training soldiers. After more and more development, it slowly evolved into one of the methods to assess the combat effectiveness of soldiers. Kemari requires good physical condition. That requires sufficient physical strength, steady legs, flexible body, and strong explosiveness, which are all indispensable conditions for victory.

"Lao Tzu will make you laugh!" Lin Bin grinned, he was worried that there was no way to deter these new scribes, and he would seize the opportunity of course he was unwilling to let go, and laughed hideously, "Do you want to bet?" ”

Chang Diaochong was not afraid, but still gentle: "How to gamble? ”

Lin Bin was penniless, "gambling on alcohol." If you lose one point, you will drink an extra bottle at the dinner party. ”

Chang Diaochong laughed. "The general is slippery, the warrior is addicted to alcohol, it doesn't hurt to drink more, the lower official is a civilian, how to compare with the general."

"......" Lin Bin also laughed, this kind of gambling is really bullying. He had a good impression of Chang Diaochong, and he didn't want to pursue Chang Diaochong for saying that his corporal was weaker than the Northern Army, so he said directly: "Old Diao, do you want to see what the real army is Juju?" ”

Chang Diaochong smiled and asked, "The general will end up in person?" ”

Lin Bin shook his head, looked around, and found that they were all chasing after him from the grassland, "You pick five of these people at random, and I will appoint a captain to let them compete with the Northern Army, and then you will be able to see the real army in the army." ”

Chang Diaochong pointed at Chen Yi and the other six people who were playing in the field, "Aren't these people under the command of the general?" ”

Lin Bin replied: "They are all newly recruited soldiers, and the one who took the lead is a well-known honest man, who is not that ruthless." Don't you see that it's all soft compared to it? It's boring to watch. ”

Chang Diaochong really wanted to see what the art of juju in the army was, and after some selection, he selected five soldiers with a relatively healthy physique.

The five soldiers were brought to Lin Bin and shouted: "My lord! ”

Lin Bin summoned Lin Ying again and looked at them, "Have you ever played Keju?" ”

Six people responded inconsistently, and two of them didn't play.

"It doesn't matter! It was like being on the battlefield and accepting Lin Ying's command. I have only one order......" Lin Bin pointed to the red team of the Northern Army who was still arrogant in the field, "slaughter them and call them dad and mom!" ”

The soldiers around them all laughed out loud when they heard what their adults said, and when the six people heard the order, they were full of anger and responded "No!" ", faintly revealing the evil aura that can only be found in the vertical and horizontal fields.

Chang Diaochong hesitated for a moment, "What is the general going to do in this ......?" ”

The last thing a martial artist wants is for others to say that the soldiers under his command are weak, and if he doesn't look for an opportunity to get a breath back, then he is also a martial artist. There is no doubt that Lin Bin is trying to play the role of a famous martial artist, and he feels that this is the way to protect himself. Generally, those in power like simple martial artists the most, and think that martial artists who don't like the art of scheming are less able to bend their bowels, and they are relatively easy to control, Lin Bin now has no other way than to choose to be a martial artist, because he gives people the impression that he is a reckless man who can't do anything but kill, if the reckless man becomes good at scheming one day, then it will not be far from death!

Lin Ying led the five team members to change into competitive clothes and appeared on the side of the field, and the sound of the gong sounded, and the two teams that were originally competing in the field visited the referee who was holding the gong and was ringing, probably playing in the middle of the game, and kept asking what happened and why the gong was paused.

Han said that when he looked up and saw Lin Bin talking to a scribe dressed as a Confucian scholar, his eyelids jumped, and he felt very uncomfortable. As early as two days ago, Han Shuo led a team to compete with Lin Bin and a group of people, and the result of that competition was that the three Northern Army were slaughtered by the yellow team led by Lin Bin and screamed, without it. It was brutally rushed, and because there was no armor at that time, he was injured a little not serious, but not light.

Lin Bin called that savage way of juju 'man's arena', and when he heard it, it was a way of playing that made people feel bloody.

Han said that Lala kept jumping her eyelids, and she was booing in her heart. He looked around the stands of the Northern Army a few times, found the figure of Qing Shui, and hurriedly jogged over, "Qing Shui!" Come down ......."

Qingshui was stunned for a moment, and shook his head desperately after seeing Lin Bin also on the field, he also saw the blood-boiling game with his own eyes that day, and the picture of the robe being thrown up and dancing in the air still lingered in his head. He wasn't much interested in Keju. And the way of competition is so barbaric, isn't it looking for a draw to go down to compete?

Han said that he looked around and found that the Northern Army that he saw either shook his head. Either that, or put on a confused look of not knowing what's going on. was worried, but when he saw that it was not Lin Bin who appeared, but the team led by Lin Ying, he was shocked. The lost faith rises and rises like a rising tide......

The referee learned that he was going to play 'Keju in the Army', and hurriedly beckoned people to carry out dozens of boxes. The box contained some leather armor that was originally used for combat drills, and after the savage rush method of Keju was accepted, it was slightly changed and used as a competitive protective gear.

Chang Diaochong saw that the two teams in the field were wearing a kind of armor that he had never seen before, and asked curiously, "This kind of armor doesn't seem to be seen, but what is it used for?" ”

Lin Binle replied: "It's no different from leather armor, it's that a lot of wool is stuffed in the compartment, which can reduce the damage to the body caused by the impact force." ”

Chang Diaochong's reaction was very fast. "So ......, what the general is wearing. Could it be stuffed with wool too? ”

Lin Bin nodded with a smile, the winter in northern Xinjiang is too cold, and now there is no such thing as cotton, so the only way to use the shaved wool is to clean it and boil and disinfect it many times before stuffing it in the compartment of the linen clothes to keep warm. This method is borrowed from nomads, not Lin Bin's own creation.

The two were chatting in the stands, and the field was ready, and the referee trotted over, "My lord, do you want to start?" ”

"Huh?" Chang Diaochong pointed to the Chinese numerals one, two, three, and four ......on the back of the protective gear, and asked in surprise, "Why are you counting?" ”

Lin Bin knew that it would be a lot of questions to explain, and he would definitely ask more and more questions, so he waved his hand, and a brutal military bow began......

I only heard a wolf howl in the field, the referee threw the ball in his hand into the sky, and then fled for his life, the captains of the two camps responsible for grabbing the ball jumped high at the same time, their bodies collided in the air, Han Shuo, who was dressed in red, was knocked away, and Lin Ying, who was wearing yellow, caught the ball and screamed, as if he was about to crush someone to death, he threw the ball in his hand at the yellow No. 4.

With a 'bang', the ball fell into the hands of the yellow No. 4, he held the ball in his arms, and a red-clothed player pounced on him, the two collided together, and the impact made the two fall to the ground at the same time, the ball rolled out, and the yellow-clothed No. 4 who was pressed under him was angry and wanted to lift the red-clothed No. 3 who was pressed on his body, and howled miserably in his mouth: "The ball is gone...... No. 6 chases ......, you fucking chase! Why are you stunned and don't move!? ”

Huangyi No. 6 had never played Keju, and he was yelled at his head like that, "What are you chasing?" You say! What are you chasing? ”

There was a burst of laughter outside the arena; Lin Bin turned his head to look at it in shame. And Chang Diaochong saw that the good Keju was actually changed to look like a martial arts, watching the ghost crying wolf howling in the field, and the team members were bumping around as if the other party had killed their father, a posture that wanted your life, he was frightened.

In the field, the ball was copied by the red-clothed No. 3, and the yellow-clothed No. 5 "whoa, ah" ghost who was ambushed next to him howled and rushed over, and the two collided with each other again, all fell and ate shit, and the ball was released and rolled out.

Han said that he saw the ball rolling towards him through the gap in his face armor, and he was about to pounce on it with great joy in his heart, and he was just about to take a step, when he first felt that his lower plate was being hit, and then he saw himself floating. He danced in the air, resentful in his heart, "Grandma's, foul!" Then he slammed into the ground and fell dizzy.

Sure enough, a gong sounded......

Lin Ying held the ball in his hand, he pulled down his mask and pointed at Han who was about to get up from the ground, and roared: "He touched the ball!" ”

The referee was too lazy to be verbose, and slapped it over, making the leather helmet on Lin Ying's head make a muffled sound, "Disobedient?" In this stadium, the uncle has the final say! ”

It must be explained that the referee is a member of the Northern Army, and he has just seen Pao Ze being abused again, which will be another way to save face.

The too arrogant competition made Chang Diaochong feel shocked, and after watching it, he guessed in his heart that the soldiers under Lin Bin's command were so arrogant, then the combat effectiveness of this army should be far stronger than Li Xi described. He twitched his lips, and it took a while for a few words to pop out: all tigers and wolves...... (To be continued) (To be continued.) )
