Chapter 55: Training in the Mountains
"Brother Li, your team is also very good at practicing, and you don't have this elite method with a salary. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info "After Gu Pu beat Li Jing and settled down on the next mountain, he didn't read any books every day, so he came over to watch Li Jing train his troops, and the envy on his face was easy for others to see.
But think about it, this soldier, not everyone can train, Li Jing doesn't say that he has a gun and a stick, just saying that the daily food and meat are spent on the sea, and he feels pain for Li Jing.
This is also thanks to the 600 stone grains purchased by the previous transportation, plus the grain brought by Qinghe Village during the migration, a total of more than 800 stones, enough for the needs of everyone on the mountain for two months, but unfortunately it was this batch of grain that attracted the officials and soldiers, and lost 200 lives one after another.
Li Jing laughed, and the waist knife in his hand did not stop, and he played with a knife flower, these days, he did not put down the martial arts in his hand.
Under Tan Wu's guidance, he successfully found the power point of the waist knife and the trick of chopping, with the experience of his previous life, he was able to put it right quickly, even Tan Wu was a little difficult, plus a throwing kung fu, at least it was not a problem to kill the enemy on the battlefield.
Li Jing would hear Gu Pu's envious words, and he had the intention to win him over, so he said directly, "If Brother Gu wants to practice, you can bring someone to practice together." ā
Gu Pu smiled and shook his head, "With your practice, you eat too much grain and grass every day, and I can't afford it." ā
Just said that he knew, Li Jing's 400 people, every morning to listen to the sound of drums, get up and assemble, first run around the school field ten laps, each fully armed, I heard that they also used the leggings of the official army, and the total weight was not more than twenty or thirty pounds.
In this way, every morning the white flour steamed buns are full, and then go to the depths of the mountains to cultivate the soil, plant some sweet potatoes, and then supplement them with meat, the consumption of 400 people alone is enough to raise thousands of people, where is the king of his own mountain can afford.
Li Jing originally thought that sweet potatoes were planted on a large scale in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, where did he think that he found out on the way to retreat, it turned out that sweet potatoes hurt the land, easy to cause barren land, planted in paddy fields, farmers are not happy, and the reclamation of the mountains is too difficult, without organization, the promotion of sweet potatoes is difficult, but now into the mountains, in the case of lack of water, it comes in handy.
In Li Jing's limited memory, the sweet potato varieties of the Ming Dynasty were not improved by later generations, but they could yield three or four hundred catties per mu, and they could be eaten together as mixed grains, and they were half full.
In this way, Li Jing's team planted every day, had a meal at noon, practiced the art of war under the scorching sun in the afternoon, learned the use of the long-haired waist knife, plus the twenty-two pairs of fat jacket armor captured in front of them, dyed the color, and selected the elite among them for training, although so, according to Tan Wu and others, it is not possible to go into battle for three months, and it can be called elite if it is not able to go into battle for three months, and it can be called elite.
Where does Li Jing have this time, not to mention that the autumn harvest is coming soon, if he misses this time, when the official army enters and suppresses, his own family will definitely not be able to resist it, and besides, there is too much food consumed every day, and the food storage cannot be consumed.
Fortunately, he came from later generations, and there are many means, and the ancient soldiers, didn't they just pay attention to a battle formation advancing and retreating together, and changing the formation quickly? This is much easier to do, as long as the physical strength and nutrition can keep up, what ten people carry wooden stakes to quickly maneuver drills, stand on military equipment, mountain switchback and other means are used.
In order to strengthen the honor and internal competition of the soldiers, Li Jing took 100 people as a team, divided into four teams, with Feng Xingman, Tan Wu, Zhao Mosheng, and Zheng Renbao as the team rate, and directly made 1234 teams, competing every day.
The top one is full of fat, the second has little meat, the third drinks soup, and the last one can only eat pickles to see it all.
"Brother Gu, under this Tianya Mountain, what is the way to get money? Little brother, I'm also shy in my pocket. Recalling that Li Denggao, who was used as a logistics logistician, complained bitterly in front of himself every day, saying that the thousand taels of silver he brought over had bought wine and meat, and now that he was about to see the bottom, Li Jing had to find a way to make money, otherwise he would go bankrupt sooner or later with this kind of military training.
Gu Pu glanced at the trained sturdy again, and said with a wry smile, "In the past, I always collected some money to buy roads, and there were few of them, if you want to raise so many men, it won't work." ā
Although everyone likes such an eye-catching man, but he doesn't have the capital, he keeps it like this, what else does his family have, looking at Li Jing leading by example, Gu Pu is a crooked feeling in his heart, he doesn't enjoy the silver at home, and he uses it on this group of bitter haha, what is the purpose? !
"Eh, it looks like I'm going to find another way." When Li Jing heard this, he thought about the two hostages in his hands, and suddenly had a plan, and he deserved to be unlucky, and there was chaos when he fought with the officials and soldiers, but it was a pity that Feng Xingman sent someone to guard it firmly, and he never ran away, and now he was also brought up the mountain by himself.
Thinking like this, he said goodbye to Gu Pu and reflexively went back to the wooden house to find Li Denggao.
"Uncle clan, rest, the silver is not lost out of thin air, scratch your scalp, who to complain to." As soon as he entered the door, he saw Li Denggao sitting on a wooden stake and thinking hard, pulling his hair from time to time, so that he was not distressed.
Since Li Chujiu was killed, the Li family originally wanted to elect Li Jing as the patriarch, but Li Jing was bent on breaking the hill within his own family and decided not to establish a patriarch again.
In this way, Li Denggao has the logistics of this team in one hand, and he also has to deal with the affairs of the clan with the other, and he is busy with his feet not touching the ground, and there are too many things in the clan during this time, he is really anxious, and there is not much silver to make, and it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice!
Li Denggao was settling the accounts, and when he saw Li Jing coming in, he seemed to have found a savior, and came up directly with the account book, "Lord, come and take a look, the profiteer from Wutai sold a pig for twenty taels of silver, and I can't do anything if I go on like this." ā
"Oh? I'll see. Li Jing also delayed, and directly took the account book, thinking in his heart, this is also no way, now that Chunxian is here, it is called to seal the way out, and only the five Taiwanese businessmen contacted by Gu Pu are willing to sell things to him, and the more expensive ones can only be recognized by gritting their teeth.
"I'm afraid that in a few days, we won't be able to afford to eat, or stop this meat trade first?" Li Denggao finally had an opportunity to talk to Li Jing, but he didn't put forward his own opinions, and he couldn't say a few words in the past, so Li Jing was busy with other things.
Li Jing refused without thinking, what are you kidding, now that the young and strong are practicing, the daily consumption needs to be replenished urgently, there is no meat, and he is tired and lying down, "Don't be busy, this meat is a must, and you must not stop, so that the next time the businessman comes, I will talk to him personally to see if I can make a living and make up for the next entry." ā
"That's okay, I'm afraid it's a source of water, and I'll sit and eat the mountains!" Li Denggao is also a person who has read a few books, otherwise it would not be his turn to take charge of logistics, "But the lord is not practicing today, so I'm afraid it's not just about checking the account books, right?" ā
I think that on weekdays, Li Jing is also busy looking forward and backward, and he didn't stop for a moment, where is he free to come to find himself, no, I really listened to Li Jing speak, "I came here today, just to ask the clan uncle to meet the two big clan sons, and ask them to write a letter to their families, and ask them to come to the silver money to get through the current hurdle first." ā
It's not that Li Jing doesn't want to go by himself, one is that he lacks skills, he is too busy elsewhere, and the other is that he has hatred in his heart, and he will be stiff when they meet, so it is appropriate to send Li Denggao to go, if you want to live, it depends on whether your family is willing to pay for it.
However, he was worried that the big clan would not give in, so he directly added, "Let Kang Yuran write the letter first, and then cut off his ears and send them over together to see if they give it or not!" ā
"It's okay, it's for nothing anyway, it's better to send it away early." Li Denggao agreed, and seeing that Li Jing was in a hurry, he directly confiscated the account books and went out.
"Send it away?!" Li Jing looked at the back of Li Denggao eagerly going out, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, "Take the money and send them to hell." ā
