Chapter 208: First Sight - Native to Oceania
Lu Bu said that the purpose of asking King Changjing to help him think of a way was just to find an excuse, and when King Changjing said this, it opened up a new way of thinking for Lu Bu!
What this old zombie said makes sense, why bother dealing with primitive people who don't have weapons? It is enough to lead 2,000 men to maintain order!
If there are too many enemies, you can also let this old zombie attack, according to His Majesty; This old zombie is comparable to a Jindan monk, a monk in the Jindan period, he is already a god-killing existence, not a mortal can resist, no matter how many people can!
Thinking of this, Lu Bu sent an order to the whole army; Three days later, Ben personally led 2,000 soldiers to Oceania to spy on intelligence, and first mobilized 2,000 people from the army to provide a year's rations.
Some readers may be puzzled and scolded: What kind of JB stuff are you talking about? There was no food for a while, and then the food was adjusted, whether Lu Bu had food or not, and the people who watched it were confused!
This is to talk about the practice of the ancient imperial court allocating grain and grass to the army!
During the Han Dynasty, the amount of food distributed to the army in the war was completely different from the army stationed in the same place.
If it is said; In the troops in leisure time, each person is distributed two catties of food per day, so in wartime, the rations of each soldier must be distributed four catties, or even more.
Is it that a soldier in time of war can eat better than a soldier in time?
Definitely!
The ancients paid attention to relying on the mountains to eat the mountains and the water to eat the water. An army that did not engage in war could not only grow its own vegetables and food, but also hunt and fish. At the least, you can dig up some wild vegetables, so the grain allocated by the imperial court will be greatly reduced.
Moreover, there are no soldiers of war, and the camp is fixed.
For example, Lu Bu's troops. The imperial court only had to transport the grain to the wharf. Lu Bu can send troops to fetch it. Porters, laborers, etc., which are not needed at all, will invisibly save a lot of food.
And in the army in wartime, the consumption of food will increase exponentially.
Even if the military rations of the imperial court have been delivered to the barracks, the army may be ordered to go out at any time, so the army must face the problem of pulling out the camp at any time.
In this case, the army will have to support a lot of civilians or auxiliaries. to transport grain, grass and other supplies.
If you are not sure, you can check out the 'Yang Guang Sanzheng Gao Juli'.
After you have seen it, you will know; How many auxiliaries or porters are needed for a war.
Be surprised! The number of auxiliaries and civilians accounted for two to three times the number of troops.
That is to say, for a million soldiers, there are at most 300,000 regular soldiers, and at least more than 700,000 auxiliary soldiers and civilian soldiers.
Why did Liu Kun build roads in Dahan?
It is precisely because of the transportation of grain and grass materials that the manpower consumed is too large. After the highway is built, the whole army will be able to use trucks to transport grain and grass supplies. The number of porters has been greatly reduced.
Even so, it still needs a lot of migrant workers to carry grain and grass materials.
Unless Liu Kun personally goes out. Send troops with the treasure mirror and load the grain and grass materials into the treasure mirror space, or this army is equipped with one person and two horses, each carrying more than ten days' rations, to fight a rapid annihilation war.
Evacuated!
In one sentence; Lu Bu is stationed here, and each soldier only needs two catties of food per day, and if Lu Bu sends troops, then the food that a soldier needs will be at least four catties.
Therefore, there was food in LΓΌ Bu's army. If there was no food, the soldiers would have mutinied!
Three days later, Lu Bu selected 2,000 elite soldiers, drove 20 ships, and marched into Oceania with the king of Changjing! At the end of April, the army arrived in Oceania.
Lu Bu sent scouts to inquire about intelligence; While ordering people to set up camp without mentioning it!
Scout Wang Ying's original name was Wang Sangou. is a senior member of Lu Bujun's scout team, and this senior member is equivalent to the deputy commander.
After joining the army, I learned a little bit of culture from the army's night school, and knew that the original name could not be put on the table, so I asked the gentleman who taught knowledge to give me a name.
Wang Sangou was born with good hearing and eyesight, walked lightly, could climb trees, could dive, and was highly alert, and was selected by the scouts as soon as he joined the army. Therefore, the gentleman who taught him literacy gave him the name of the character 'shadow'.
Wang Ying and the scout team went all the way to the south, and as they went farther and farther, the search area became larger and larger, and the scout team gradually divided the first team into two teams, the second team into four teams, and the fourth team into eight teams.
On the third day, Wang Ying had only one companion left. They came to a mountain forest and found traces of human activity.
This shows that there are people living in this vicinity, and judging from various traces, the people who live in this mountain forest are in this mountain forest.
Another scout asked, "Brother Shadow, what should I do?" Have you an idea, should we go into the woods and investigate? β
Wang Ying replied: "Let's just go back like this, and we can't make a difference?" β
Another scout said, "Brother Shadow, as the old saying goes; Don't enter the forest! β
After hesitating, Wang Ying said ruthlessly: "Damn the bird, it will not die for thousands of years, monkey, you go back and report the news, and I will investigate it myself."
If I can't come back, brother, remember to tell the general, avenge my shadow, and I will leave markers along the road! β
Teammate Monkey's eyes were red and said: "Brother Monkey, let's go, you have been taking care of me for the past two years, and it is time for me to take a risk!" β
Wang Ying posed as an authoritative member of the senior team and said, "What are you talking about? If I go, the chances of living are greater, if you kid go in, eighty percent will give up your life! β
After speaking, Wang Ying pretended to be impatient to chase away the monkey and cautiously sneaked into the woods.
The light in the forest was dark, and there were many rotten leaves and branches on the ground, Wang Ying did not dare to walk too fast, almost one step at a time, one by one, one by one, while slowly advancing, while observing the movement in the forest.
Even with such care, Wang Ying was still discovered by the natives of the forest.
The natives who drink blood have not yet escaped from the category of 'beasts'.
Like Wang Ying, people who have been baptized by civilization are smarter than 'beasts', but they are not as good as these primitive people in terms of primitive latent and hidden.
The primitive who discovered Wang Ying was a woman whose whole body was painted in 'camouflage'.
At this time, like a vigorous female leopard, she squatted on the tree above Wang Ying, looking at this strange-looking person at her feet with puzzled eyes.
If Wang Ying knew what she was thinking, she would have retorted; You're strange, your whole people are weird!
This woman is indeed strange, because she is not an inch!
What do you mean by indifference?
To put it bluntly, I don't wear any clothes at all, and my whole body is slippery!
However, this is exactly what primitive man is!
During this period, the people of the entire Oceania were primitive people, primitive people had no concept of wearing clothes at all, and the whole family was bare-assed.
In the eyes of primitive people, this Wang Ying in clothes is the person who dresses strangely. (To be continued.) )
