Chapter 147: Feather Forest Ride
Thousands of miles away, Cao Shi sneezed.
"I have a cold again, what is this bad weather, the cold in the morning is scared to death, the heat at noon can't stand it, and I get cold when I sweat."
Recently, the intensity of training is a bit high, and I did intensive training in the racecourse that has not yet been built in the south of Chang'an, and by the way, I brought the bear children in the honorable military merit to engage in closed training.
The name used is very good, and the Son of Heaven recruited the sons of the noble and good families to form the Yulin Ride.
The people who signed up rushed to run, and when they heard about the harsh training requirements of the training, they wanted to run, and they were carried back before they could get out of the door.
Cao Shihu made a tiger face, and it was clear that he wanted to buy and sell strongly, and don't want to go out again when he entered the gate, unless you were tired and injured when walking, beware of being blown down by the wind, even if you have no strength to restrain the chicken, you must insist on practicing your body, and everyone is responsible for exercising your body.
The racecourse has a round of four kilometers, and the horse has to run a full ten laps every day, and if you don't run the lap, you won't finish it, and if you don't meet the standard time limit, you will be fined one to five laps.
Forty kilometers of exercise is not a small amount, even riding a horse is not an easy job, for the delicate and noble meritorious children, this is also a big test.
After ten laps, the delicate mounts of the nobles were already covered in sweat, and the riders on the horses were also tired and out of breath.
"Zishou, you are going to die of exhaustion as a brother! Ten laps almost killed me here, and my ass was about to turn into sixteen petals. Chen He was lying on the ground on his back and humming, most of the children of the Liehou were tired and staggering, and their appearance was almost the same as Chen He.
These noble sons and daughters roam the streets and alleys all day long. The erosive life of the eagle lackey, the sound of dogs and horses, all the large Wanhu Hou can't stop the monthly living expenses of 100,000 yuan, and Chen He and his ilk are the masters of Beijing. If it weren't for the fact that the family had a lot of property and rich income, their lavish habit would have lost the family business in less than ten years.
"Brothers, don't lie down and sit, all stand up and pant slowly, don't lie down and sit after strenuous exercise, that is not good for your health."
"Zishou. What you say is true or false? I've never heard of that. ”
Cao Shi ignored it and pulled people up one by one, and the princes had no choice but to cooperate and stand up again.
At the beginning of January, when the weather was still cold. Cao Shi suddenly announced at the gathering of the princes that all the sons and daughters of the nobles under the age of 25 should follow him to ride war horses to exercise, and he was worried about this matter.
Riding a horse is a tool for walking. It's okay to ride a horse through the streets and alleys of Chang'an. Maybe you meet a beautiful big girl and little daughter-in-law, whistle and hook up with a joke, maybe hooking up and hooking up has become a good thing, this routine is very similar to the scene in Cao Shi's impression after 2,000 years, the same BMW famous car hunting everywhere, it is really a bit of the same thing.
Guan Qiang's strong body and riding skills are not bad, so that he is not as wolf as those guys, he stood up and asked, "Zishou, do you think that thing is reliable?" It was the matter when the Son of Heaven wanted to form a feather forest ride. ”
"If I dare to say it, I will be sure. Have you ever seen me lie to someone? ”
The noble disciples shook their heads, and there was really nothing to say about Cao Shi's skills. After nearly two years of hard work in Chang'an, the wind and clouds stirred up a pool of stagnant water in the Beijing Division, not only brought the meritorious princes back to life, but also stabilized the almost collapsed military merit system.
This rhetoric has a strong Cao Shi style, dare to say that the first emperor was not affected by Cao Shi must have not woken up, a few years ago when Zhou Yafu did not die, who in the world dare to say that he can affect the mean and unkind emperor? Cao Shi's skills can no longer be described as a cow, it is simply a shining ox fork, which makes the sons and daughters of Xun give birth to a feeling of worship for the five bodies.
A group of old monsters in the meritorious liehous, all of them are like monkeys and ghosts, hiding in the dark and seeing everything clearly, if it weren't for his magical appearance, even if he was the most noble Pingyang Hou, even if their Cao family used to be the head of the liehou group, that group of old guys would not dump a little seventeen-year-old liehou at all.
In any era, in any circle, there are unspoken rules of seniority, and only a very few people break the unspoken rules with their strong strength, stand at the top and sit on an equal footing with the old guys, and even make them subservient.
Unintentionally, Cao Shi acted as a breaker of the unspoken rules for a while, and the two or three magical expressions in succession calmed the old guys without paying attention, just in time for the meritorious princes to fall into the crisis of falling apart, and there was a big drama of the princes taking refuge in hugging their thighs.
"Can we also ride in the Feather Forest?" Zhou Zuoche asked.
Cao Shi said with a straight face: "It's not okay now, just your body, you can record it after three months of intensive training, I will say ugly things in front, which of you is not willing to follow me to practice, don't complain that you can't stand it when the training starts, and you want to die or live and make trouble, then I can only say sorry, how to punish and punish with strict military regulations, it's useless to call your father." ”
Xungui's children are all silent, which of the people present is not repeatedly told by the old man of the family, follow the Pingyang Hou to mix a good background, if you don't do well and be kicked back, at least you have to be beaten by the family law and break your legs and arms, if it really doesn't work, it is not excluded that you will write to the court to abolish the prince, the emperor can abolish the prince for the foundation of the country, and it is not a big deal for the prince to change the heir.
There is a tight spell on his head, regardless of the old fritters such as Chen He, Zhou Zuoche, Guan Qiang, or the younger Xiahou Po, Xuan Xi and other young lieges, no one dares to resist Cao Shi's coercion, which is related to the heavy arrangement of the fate of the family and personal career, so he must not play nonsense.
4o km long-distance training is just one of many items, according to the training plan given by Cao Shi, the long-distance march without weight should be increased to at least 8o km, and the weight-bearing march should be at least 5o km or more.
In the grassland desert, the main force of the Huns comes and goes like a god of wind, and the combat effectiveness of the Han army is very strong, but you run too slowly, you can't catch up with the enemy and bite the tail. The war that could have been won was dragged out half-dead, and even the losses of the own side were even greater, which was a headache.
So. The first thing Cao Shi trained was the long-distance march, and the speed of the war horse and the distance it became very important, and only after the long-distance march could he still have the body to persist in the battle, so that he could have the ability to achieve amazing results.
Cao Shi encouraged loudly: "This is just the beginning, the future training will gradually increase layer by layer, my goal is to train this Yulin cavalry to become the first cavalry in the world, and your goal is at least to top the level of the main cavalry force of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, and the Marquis of Yingyin." To do that, even if the Huns control the strings 6o million, what can they do? We are not afraid! ”
The children of Xun Gui were a little weak by his intimidation, and the pampered young man couldn't stand this kind of life for a while, and imagined the cruel training in the next few months.
In order to fulfill the dream of the little emperor of military reform. He must teach these young nobles a lesson, and if he doesn't work hard to rectify the rotten military merit, it won't take ten years to rot to the bones.
"If you want to fight and win a war, you must first have elite soldiers and strong generals. Secondly, there must be an arsenal of money and food. Again, it is necessary to have a highly unified organization, and finally it is necessary to have good wartime economic support, and without any of the four, it will not be possible to play any of them, either the army will be disabled, or the money and food will run out, or the organization will collapse, or the economy will be ruined, and neither of them can stand it. ”
Liu Che's face was unbelievable. His brain is very smart, but he still can't keep up with the new words that Cao Shi pops up at every turn. New words such as military, political, economic, diplomatic, cultural, and public security organizations pop up as soon as they appear, and it takes a lot of effort just to record and define them.
He didn't care about this, he was busy all winter, and he was almost about to practice the doppelganger technique, and wherever he went, he could meet the haunting Liu Ling, so he invited the will from Liu Che, the son of heaven, and he was busy preparing for the emerging officer corps.
After working for a long time and putting a lot of energy into organizing and arranging, it is only now that this group of princes can be regarded as being pinched in, and the painstaking persuasion for this can be described as painstaking.
The first batch of members is directly selected from the meritorious lies, the second batch is selected from the children of the Marquis of Guannai half a month later, and the third batch is opened to all the children of the high lords in the military merit system half a month later, and after three months of intensive training, the last place will be eliminated, and the worst fifth of the table will lose the qualification to become a Yulin rider.
Regardless of three, seven, twenty-one, put up the high-voltage line first, I want to escape training and pretend to be stupid, my stomach hurts for a while, my butt hurts for a while, it's useless, I hurry home when I'm sick, drink more water, take medicine on time, military training is so dangerous that people are not suitable for sick people.
In less than a month, the sons and daughters of Xun Gui eliminated hundreds of people, and all those who tried to challenge the rules were kicked out, and it was useless to call their parents to sprinkle, and the army had to look like an army.
In order to add some ruthlessness, Cao Shi also specially invited the new lieutenant Zhang Ou from the lieutenant's mansion to be the chief instructor, and within a few days, he ordered the training volume to be doubled, almost tossing those noble children to death.
Physical training is a physical subject that must be carried out in the code compiled by Cao Shi, in addition to sit-up training, horizontal bar and parallel bar training, rope skipping (skipping rope) training, no weight-bearing 5 kilometers of full marching, no weight-bearing horseback riding 8o kilometers of marching and many other physical tests, there is a good body to be invincible, otherwise go to the battlefield to fight for a while to be tired of even the knife and gun are dancing, the war will be lost.
Lieutenant Zhang Ou walked on the trail with a whip, and there were more than 2,000 young people in the left and right rows doing push-ups sweating like rain, and they had to complete the subject training within the time limit.
"Give me speed, the sand in the hourglass is shining, you must complete 2oo push-ups, which group can't complete the training volume, and the whole group members will run a lap with the penalty run!"
2ooo Many people cried and gritted their teeth and insisted, the lap Zhang Ou said was not a small circle, but a 4-kilometer big circle in the racecourse, and even if you can't run to death after a big lap, you will be tired and half dead.
The time recorded by the small hourglass is about 1o minutes, and it is not difficult to complete 2oo push-ups in so much time, if you haven't exercised for more than a month before, I'm afraid most people can't survive this level, but even so, there are still more than 2oo people who have not been able to complete the set goal in 1o minutes.
The group of more than 2oo people involved 125o people to run together, and the people who followed the penalty run were of course unhappy, but they still had to insist on the punishment.
Every 10 people in the training camp were organized into small groups, and the makeshift barracks set up outside the racecourse was their home, and every day these 10 people had to get along day and night, live in the same Chase shop and train together. If you fail to complete the task, you will be punished.
"It's all because you're usually lazy, and this time we're going to be punished with you."
"Phew! You didn't pass the run last time, didn't I run with you? ”
"Last time you were so bad in pull-ups. I've been doing special training for you for a long time! ”
"Last time, you didn't meet the standard of rope jumping (skipping rope), didn't I teach you the trick."
While running, they complain to each other's pig teammates, and the result of complaining is usually to expose each other and then shut up, the meritorious children are very smart, but no matter how smart they are, there is nothing they can do, knowing that Cao Shi dug a pit for them still has to jump into it. Ten people get along like brothers day and night, and no matter how much they complain, they can't quarrel.
If there is a group that does not understand unity, the endless complaints turn into layers of heated quarrels. Even the basic unity and military discipline do not understand the members, even if his appearance is very good, he will not be entered into the roster, the strength of the Han army lies in the strict military rules as iron, Han Xinshen's military law is not a joke. There is a heavy punishment for abandoning the city.
Chen He lowered his head and ran depressedly. His physical reserves are okay, there is no time limit to jog a lap is not effortless, but many items his table xiàn is not good, he is the only crane tail in their group, Zhou Zuoche and Guan Qiang run silently, this is already Chen He's eleventh "hanging course", at present, he has won the top ten of the "hanging department" list, and it will not take a month to continue to hang. He's about to pack up the bed.
"Zishi, we have to find a way to practice."
Chen He hung his head and said, "I also want to practice." But what's the use of me being so wasteful? In the end, it was the fate of being eliminated. ”
"Don't worry, we can't help it, Zishou must have a way!"
As soon as several people were combined, they took advantage of the noon break to sneak into the officer's tent, and Chen He was put down by a big fist as soon as he touched the tent.
almost jumped up in fright, looked up and took a closer look, it turned out to be Sun Qi, the door doctor of the Pingyang Hou Mansion, and Zhou Zuoche, who was put down on the other side, looked at Wang Meng who came out of the corner.
"Yo? How did you sneak up here? Come in and sit down, I'm cooking beef offal hot pot and soaking rice, and I'll serve you one. ”
The bright red soup in the gurgling hot pot is steaming, and the best spicy dogwood is selected, supplemented by fennel, Sichuan pepper, star anise, cinnamon and other spices to cook the boiling red soup, and the large pieces of beef and tripe, and beef shutters make people drool.
A few people sat down unceremoniously, Ji Xin picked up a big spoon and scooped it three times, and filled a whole bowl with meat and vegetables, a few guys hadn't opened a small stove for a long time, holding a big bowl and pouring rice on it, and even the soup and rice were cleaned up.
"One more bowl!"
"I still want rice, I've never eaten such delicious beef."
"Give me some offal."
"I want tripe! Cow shutters too! ”
"Stupid, the river shrimp in the soup base is the essence."
A few big-bellied men made a pot of beef offal hot pot upside down, and Cao Shi, Sun Qi, Wang Meng and Ji Xin, who were originally waiting for dinner, were dumbfounded, it was a full eight portions of beef offal hot pot, and they were eaten clean by a few guys before they moved a single chopstick.
Belch!
"It's so cool! It's been a long time since I've eaten so full, and if there's a beef offal hot pot, I feel like I can eat a little more, I don't feel ashamed of it, and the peerless delicacy is the highest ideal worth pursuing,"
"I want to swear to Tai Yishen, today's lunch is the best meal I have ever had in my life, the beef offal hot pot is a hundred times more wonderful than the delicacies of the mountains and seas, and I am now my favorite delicacy."
"Yes, when I ate the first bite of tripe, I suddenly felt that my life had a color, and beef offal hot pot is equal to the hope of life."
A few people opened their stomachs and ate to their hearts, covering their bellies with endless satisfaction and happiness, and the other four people couldn't cry or laugh, and in a blink of an eye, a very ordinary beef offal hot pot became the supreme delicacy, and I don't know if they were touting it or they didn't see good food for many days.
Cuckoo......
Cao Shi's stomach was thundering, and when he turned around, he saw that Sun Qi's face was not very good-looking, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Get another copy!" ”
The meal was tossed for another half an hour, and several people who were eating and drinking watched him eat with their eyes, swallowing saliva while watching.
Cao Shi snorted: "Didn't you just eat it, why did you swallow saliva?" ”
"Zishou, you don't know what kind of food we eat, it's just pig food! What pigs eat, how can we eat it! Everyone is hungry and can't get results, I don't want to ask you for a statement, can you improve the food, so that we can eat something good and have the strength to run. ”
"You eat all pig food? Knowing that it's pig food, then you still eat it? ”
Chen He embarrassed his face, dug a pit to bury himself, and changed his mouth to say: "It's not pig food but it's hard to eat, big fat slices stewed cabbage, big fat slices stewed black vegetables, big fat slices of meat...... The meal was full of big fat slices, all pork, and I wanted to vomit when I ate it. ”
"If you don't like pork, then you can only eat cabbage, eat more vegetables to supplement vitamins."
"What element? In short, no matter what vegetarian food is, we want to eat something good, and we can only achieve results by running with the strength. ”
"Others are doing the same, don't be special, you can pick out a lot of fat slices, didn't I prepare fish soup for you?"
Zhou Zuoche looked gloomy: "Hey, don't mention it, that palm-long small fish bone is more than meat, only drink soup and can't be full, the big meat slices are greasy to eat, or you can get a little stir-fry to adjust it." ”
"Don't complain, when you go to the barracks, you still pick fat and thin, how will you live on the battlefield in the future! How can there be so many delicious foods for you to choose from when you are marching and fighting, it would be good to have a stutter outside, and in the future, you will be replaced with compressed dry food, and sun-dried cured meat will be eaten with cold water, and that day will not be worse than you eating some hot rice? ”
Guan Qiang jumped up and said, "Can we really go to the battlefield in the future?" ”
"Why are you here if you don't go into battle to kill the enemy? Fame and fortune will be taken immediately, aren't you here just to receive rewards for meritorious service? ”
"That's right! We are here to make meritorious contributions. ”
Cao Shi asked, "Do you still count the larger fat slices?" ”
Everyone is not stupid, their heads continue to shake, and the stupid fork will continue to nod and say yes.
"Then go back! By the way, forget about the offal hot pot this time, and bring your own ingredients next time you come to eat here. ”
A few people hugged their heads and ran around. (To be continued!)
ps: In ancient times, there was very little cattle farming, and there was a lack of ways to raise cultivated cattle, and it was permissible to kill cattle that could not be cultivated for meat, but civilians could not afford to eat them.
The liver cancer of the third boss also scared me, I hope he can recover as soon as possible and write better works.
