Biquge.inforeadx;? The next day, Shangguan Xiu took Tang Ling to the Zhenjun Army garrison near Xibu City.

The total garrison of the Zhenjun army in the Shah area totaled 50,000 people (its establishment was not within the four corps of the Zhenjun army), and there were more than ten fortresses built, three of which were built near the city of Sibu.

Under the rule of the Ba people, the people in the Shah area are not living well, and the bandits are serious, but the golden city of Sib has never been sacked by bandits, one is naturally related to the strength of the city army, and the other is precisely because there are three fortresses near the city of Sib, and the total strength of the garrison is close to 10,000.

In the vicinity of the fortress, there are large areas of farmland, some of which are farmland bought by the people of the Wind Country, and some of which are farmland directly under the garrison, but whether it is a civilian field or a military field, the people who work in the fields are basically slaves.

It was only in the ridges of the fields that I could occasionally see the people or soldiers in military uniforms supervising the work.

Because there are a large number of slaves who farm on their behalf, the daily work of the garrison is training, sometimes going out to the camp to suppress bandits, or at the request of the Ba people, sending troops to attack other Shah tribes, which can be regarded as actual combat drills.

It can be said that the 50,000 garrisons of the Zhenjun Army in Shah are more well-trained than the four regiments directly under it, and they have more combat experience.

The Shah garrison adopts a new formation, ten people for a squad, thirty people for a platoon, one hundred people for a company, one thousand people for a battalion, three thousand people for a regiment, ten thousand people for a corps, and the garrison of each fortress is basically about three thousand people, which is the establishment of a regiment.

After the commander of the garrison welcomed Shangguan Xiu and Tang Ling into the fortress, he first took the two of them to visit the fortress, and then the commander of the garrison arranged a hunt.

The hunting area was not far from the fortress, and the commander of the garrison had already captured hundreds of prey in advance, and before the hunt, he put all the prey into the mountain forest.

In the process of hunting, Tang Ling gained a lot, shooting a total of two deer, three raising, and a wild boar, which can be described as very enjoyable.

That night, Tang Ling and Shangguan Xiu ate barbecue in the fortress, and then stayed in the fortress, and they didn't even return to Xibu City.

During Shangguan Xiu and Tang Ling's visit to Shahe, the situation in the country was not peaceful, and Tang Yu's court sent four legions to march towards Yujun.

During this period, the 50,000 Zhenjun Army reserves led by Sui Tangjing gathered at the junction of Zhenjun and Shangjing, and it seemed that there was an intention to take advantage of the situation and take Shangjing directly.

Under the threat of the Zhenjun army, the 400,000 troops sent by the Tang Yu court did not dare to rush into Yujun, and stationed in Yu'an County, the rebels did not move, the Zhenjun army did not move, and the 50,000 reserves stayed near Shangjing, eyeing it.

Don't look at the only 50,000 soldiers and horses, don't look at the reserve of the Zhenjun Army, but as long as the name of the Zhenjun Army is hung in front of it, no one dares to underestimate it, and no one doubts the combat effectiveness of this army.

The two sides did not engage in a direct battle, but they were fighting wits and courage, under the calm surface, secretly competing, compared with the rumors of Shangjing, Xijing City did not feel the tension of the impending war at all,

Xijing is currently building on a large scale, the inner city is expanding to the outer city, and the outer city is expanding to the surrounding areas, and there are projects everywhere, and you can see houses under construction everywhere.

The house provided by Shangguan Xiu for Gu Qingling has helped the Gu family a lot, at least they don't have to worry about building a house.

In the past few days, Gu Qingling has only been doing one thing, that is, for the design of the new military uniform, Shangguan Xiu has clearly reminded him that where firearms rise, the military uniforms of the local army must have places that can be imitated by the Wind Country.

Where did firearms first arise, it was naturally Tia, Shangguan Xiu's implication was naturally to emulate Tiya's military uniform,

What does Ti Yajun's military uniform look like, Gu Qingling has never seen it, but Shangguan Qingyuan, who was born in Tia, is too familiar, Qian came in and out, and invited Shangguan Qingyuan into Gu's house, when Qingyuan came, he also specially brought a set of Ti Yajun's military uniform,

Tia's military uniform is very close to the modern military uniform, the classic two-section design, simple and capable, worn on the body, straight and solemn, and with high military boots, heroic and handsome,

After seeing the Tiya military uniform brought by Qingyuan, Gu Qingling quickly found the inspiration for the new military uniform, she first designed the drawings, and then cut out the ready-to-wear according to the most satisfactory drawing.

The new military uniform designed by Gu Qingling is not exactly the same as Tia's military uniform, the biggest difference is in the military boots, Tia is a small land, the population is limited, and the number of soldiers is also small, so Tia has the conditions and ability to make long leather boots for the whole army, but the army of the Wind Country is two million, and this is only the central army, not counting the local army, if the whole army wants to change its uniform, the first batch of military boots to be produced needs at least three million pairs, how much leather does it have to consume,

Not to mention that the Wind Country does not have such a high leather production at present, even if there is, Gu Qingling has to consider the cost, and whether the imperial court can afford such a high-cost military uniform,

If the imperial court can't afford it, no matter how reasonable and beautiful the new military uniform designed, it will be useless, and the imperial court will not adopt it at all.

In this matter, Qian Jin's opinion is different from Gu Qingling's, his idea is that don't think about the cost of the new military uniform first, the first thing to consider now is that the military uniform designed by his own party can be brought to the court, whether it can deter everyone who lives there, including Tang Ling, as for the cost, that is a matter to be considered after the election, and when that time comes, you can submit an improvement plan to the imperial court, and the improvement for the purpose of saving costs will also be accepted by the imperial court.

Thinking about it carefully, Gu Qingling felt that what Qian Jin said was also reasonable, so she adopted Qian Jin's opinion instead, and the design of the new military uniform was also modified into long leather boots.

Time flies, in a blink of an eye, it has come to the last day of the fifteen-day period, tomorrow, Shangguan Xiu and Tang Ling will return to Xijing, in the afternoon, there will be a selection of new military uniforms,

At night, Gu Qingling couldn't sleep, came out of the bedroom, and went to the study, on the table in the study, there were the drawings she designed, and on the hanger on the side, there were designed military uniforms.

Gu Qinglingzai carefully inspected the finished military uniform, and found nothing wrong, Fang felt a little relieved, and then, she walked to the table and looked at the drawings on the table, the drawings were not one, after several days of modification, the drawings were thick dozen,

She slowly flipped through them one by one, wondering if there was anything that needed to be improved in her mind, and after reading it from beginning to end, Gu Qingling suddenly frowned, she counted the drawings twice again, her brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and she shouted sideways: "Come on,"

As he cheered, a little maid walked in from outside, blessed herself, and said, "Miss,"

"Find the housekeeper to come over, and also, bring Zhang Luan and Hu Xin over," Gu Qingling said in a deep voice,

"Yes, miss," Gu Qingling's tone was not good, the little maid quickly withdrew from the study, and after a short time, the housekeeper Gu An and the caretaker Zhang Luan and Hu Xin rushed to the study together.

When the three of them came in, they bowed and said, "Miss,"

"Who has entered my study," Gu Qingling's eyes were like torches, scanning the three of them, Gu An, Zhang Luan, and Hu Xin looked at each other, and said: "Mr. Qian came once, and also warned his subordinates, be sure to guard the study, except for Mr. Qian, the only person who entered the study was the servant who cleaned the study," After speaking, Gu An asked cautiously: "Miss, but what happened?"

"I lost one of the drawings I put in the study," Gu Qingling said word by word,

After Gu An, Zhang Luan, and Hu Xin heard this, their faces changed, and they subconsciously looked at the drawings on the table, there were at least fifty or sixty thick drawings, one more or one less, and they couldn't see any difference at all.

Zhang Luan said cautiously: "Miss won't be ...... It can't be a mistake,"

Qian Jin is Shangguan Xiu's confidant, and he is an old friend of the young lady, it is impossible for him to steal the drawings, as for the servants who clean the study, they are all old servants of the Gu family, and there is no doubt about the loyalty of the Gu family to Gu Qingling, and it is impossible to help outsiders steal the drawings.

Gu Qingling slowly shook her head with a solemn face, and said, "Impossible, I can't be mistaken," as she spoke, she said categorically: "Find all the servants who have come to clean the study, and, forget it,"

Originally, she wanted to say that she would invite Qian Jin to come, but after thinking about it, she felt that this was a redundant move, Qian Jin knew too much about his design plan, to be exact, the new military uniform was designed by her and Qian Jin together, if he wanted to leak secrets, he didn't need to steal the drawings at all,

The loss of drawings, this is not a trivial matter, the appearance of thieves in the Gu Mansion is only one of them, and more importantly, once the drawings fall into the hands of competitors, the consequences will be unimaginable, and it didn't take long for the two old servants to be brought over by the nursing home.

These two old family servants have worked in the Gu family all their lives, and they survived the tragedy of the Gu family.

Hearing that the drawings had been lost in the young lady's study, the two old servants both knelt down and swore to the sky that they would never take anything from the study, and that they were willing to show their loyalty by death.

Looking at the two old servants who were kneeling on the ground, crying and crying, Gu Qingling frowned secretly, the drawings could not have been taken by the money, and these two domestic servants, who were similar to her family, had also been verified for their loyalty to her.

At this time, even Gu Qingling was not sure if he had lost a drawing,

Cai Fu, Wise House,

Wisdom House is the residence of Cai Huang, the second son of the Cai family,

At this time, he was sitting in the study, and opposite him, there was a thin young man, Cai Huang was holding a drawing in his hand, looked down carefully, and asked, "This is the new military uniform designed by Gu Qingling,"

"Exactly," the emaciated young man bowed and said, "The finished new military uniform in the study is exactly the same as the design on this drawing,"

The corners of Cai Huang's mouth were hooked, he looked at the young man opposite with a smile, and said: "Your disguise technique, you can really hide from the world, you can be fat or thin, tall or short, male or female,"

The young man said expressionlessly: "The second son has praised it,"

Cai Huang looked up and smiled, his gaze fell from the young man's face back to the drawing, and said with a smile: "As far as I know, random change can change a person's appearance, appearance, and even gender,"

"Subordinates don't change randomly, they are only proficient in the art of disguise,"

"What's the difference between the two,"

"It takes a long time to make the art of disguise vivid, and it is said that random changes can be completed in an instant,"

"There really is such a subtle spiritual martial art in the world,"

"The subordinates don't know,"

"You say, what is going on in this Gu Qingling's mind, why is the military uniform designed so weird," Cai Huang shook the drawings in his hand, and said happily: "This is not like the clothes of the wind man at all,"

"My subordinates don't know," the young man repeated,

"Well, you've worked hard, go down,"

"Yes, the subordinates are retired,"

When the young man walked out of the study, the smile on Cai Huang's face disappeared, replaced by a gloomy face, he slapped his face, the secret door on the side of the study opened, and two young people of the same age as Cai Huang came out from inside,

He slapped the drawing on the table and asked, "This is the new military uniform designed by Gu Qingling, you two should come and take a look,"
