Chapter 436: Speed Up

Of course, Li Xiang also admires this Niu General very much, if this Niu General's morality is not up to par, Li Xiang will definitely find an opportunity to push it out, such a big thing can be done, can such a thing still be done?

In the later period, Li Shimin also hinted that in order to ensure the smooth operation of the Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo, if Li Xiang was dissatisfied with the people in the army, he could be replaced at any time, but Li Xiang also knew Niu Jinda and Su Dingfang, these two people were also fierce generals of the Tang Dynasty, and there was no need to replace them at all.

When he came to the big tent in the army, Niu Jinda was left alone, and the others were already sitting on the ground, Niu Jinda thought that Li Xiang was the son of the royal family, so some things had to be enjoyed, but he didn't expect Li Xiang to sit on the ground here, everything was the standard of wartime.

"The last general Niu Jinda, see His Royal Highness Taisun, thank His Highness for giving the knife!"

Niu Jinda has heard many times about the treasure knife for sale, and he also wants to be able to buy one, but the problem is that the queue is too long, and the number of sales is limited every month, and he waited until the day of the expedition, and it was not his turn.

All the people in the Niu family have tried their best, but all the people want good things, not you can get them if you want them, and the Niu family is not the top magnates in Chang'an City, and many people will not come to scold them.

What's more, the people in line are not ordinary people, if you want to move your name to the front, you may offend the family, and the guys who hold on to the treasure don't dare to do such a thing, so Niu Jinda is also very depressed, I didn't expect that on the first day of his birth, the treasure knife that he couldn't ask for was already on his body.

"General Niu, please, what is this saying, we are now a brother who eats in a pot, if I encounter anything on the battlefield, I have to rely on General Niu to save my life, a treasure knife is nothing, everyone who follows me knows that as long as they follow me on the expedition, the treasure knife BMW is a must."

Li Xiangxuan helped him, and Niu Jinda got up.

Look at these people in the house, basically everyone has a treasure knife, originally thought that the legend was fake, after all, the value of this knife is very high, and the cheapest can be sold for more than 4,000 yuan, if you follow Li Xiang to go on the expedition, you will give one, so how much does Li Xiang have to cost?

So in the past, Niu Jinda thought it was not true, but now when he sees a tent full of people, he naturally believes this, our Royal Highness the grandson's ability to make money is undoubted, and people spend money on the blade, just with this treasure knife, what kind of people can't buy it?

For these generals in the army, although they also love yellow and white things, but when they go to the battlefield, who doesn't want to have a knife that sharpens iron like clay in their hands, which may be equal to their second and third lives, when you fight with the enemy, you can cut off the enemy's weapon with a knife, and then you will have someone else's life, then your own life will remain.

Cold weapon combat is not the same as hot weapons, when it is really to kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred, when it is time to lead their troops to kill the enemy, they also hope to have a better chance of surviving, who wants to throw their lives on the battlefield? This treasure knife is equivalent to several more lives, and Li Xiang used this to buy people's hearts, which can be regarded as sending it to the hearts of these people.

After everyone was ready, they then brought out today's meal, which was basically the same as what the soldiers ate, and there were all kinds of canned food in the Li Xiang system, and the first meal of the day was canned soup.

Niu Jinda can eat this thing, although it is not pure meat, but it is very fragrant, especially this canned soup, I don't know how many good seasonings are put in it, so that everyone eats it happily.

Of course, he felt that he had just left Chang'an, and the various supplies of the army were normal, and after passing Luoyang, perhaps there would be fewer supplies along the way, even if it was a general in the army, it was impossible to eat better than now.

But he forgot that the commander of this army was Li Xiang, when he was fighting in Tuyuhun, the thousands of elite soldiers under Cheng Yanjin were eating canned food to live, although they could also find some supplies on the grassland, but the problem was that it took time to cook, where was it better than eating canned food, and at that time it was a fast thing.

Although there are 200,000 people now, Li Xiang's points are not a minority, and there is no pressure on Li Xiang to raise these 200,000 people to eat, in order to be able to reach Goguryeo as soon as possible, Li Xiang has already given orders to the officials below to speed up as much as possible.

As for these canned food, they were naturally sent by the system soldiers early, and every time they cooked, the man only needed to boil a large pot of boiling water, and then threw the canned food and all kinds of vegetables into it, as well as all kinds of condiments sent by His Highness, according to the amount His Highness said, we threw it in one go, and the fragrant soup came out immediately.

The men only had to find a way to get some dry food, and their work was slowed down a lot, so they could eat fresh dry food at every meal, instead of eating dry food for days as before, and when they ate it, it was even harder than a stone, and it could knock a person's teeth down.

At that time, many people were reluctant to eat, but if you didn't eat, you wouldn't have any food in your stomach, and you wouldn't have any energy to walk, and you might fall behind in the end, let alone go to Goguryeo to make meritorious contributions, and if you were caught by the overseers behind, you might be judged to be a deserter, and there was no place to cry at that time.

Li Xiang is different from other people, after eating, he urged everyone to go down to rest, around this big tent, a small tent was arranged for each general, this kind of marching bed inside has never been seen, but it is very comfortable to sleep, although it can be spread on the ground with all kinds of soft living items before, but it still feels inferior to this marching bed, Niu Jinda has also studied this marching bed for a long time.

During the meal just now, everyone discussed it, although forty miles a day is the rule of the imperial court, but we can save time in other places, plus the soldiers eat and drink less, so we can travel fifty miles a day, don't underestimate the extra ten miles a day, if you count it to a month, this is a lot.

After careful consideration, the other generals thought that Li Xiang's proposal was correct, and when the army set off from Chang'an City, Goguryeo's spies had already received the news, and if we could arrive ten days earlier, what would we gain......
