Use lamp oil to keep his subordinates warm, they really don't know what to say, they have never heard of it, the history before the Tang Dynasty is not short, many generals in the barracks have read books, and when they see these lamp oils pulled, they can't wait to kneel down and kowtow to Li Xiang three times.

How much did it affect the morale of the soldiers during this period of rain? No one knows better than they are that if it continues, we are afraid that there will be deserters in our army.

In the face of those enemy troops in the mountains and forests, we did not have much ability, but we ourselves often got sick, all because of the wet weather, if we continued like this, including some low-level officers, they would also have a lot of disgust.

The reason why it has not appeared now is because of the merits of the Tang army before, and the training in peacetime has given them a strong will, so that they can hold out for so long.

That night, there was a fire in the houses of the small troops, which was a very luxurious thing, and they could do it when it first rained, but now they could no longer do it, but just when they thought they couldn't do it, His Royal Highness brought them firelight.

The soldiers happily brought their beds to the edge of the fire, and then slowly baked them, and this evening they were finally able to sleep in dry beds, and there was no need to squeeze out the water at night.

Of course, Li Xiang also issued a strict order, every small unit must open the door or window, because the combustion of lamp oil will produce a large number of harmful gases, if the door is closed, there may be a lot of people uncomfortable at night.

Everyone has been given enough lamp oil, whether it is on the front line for a mission, or in the rear barracks, as long as you have a brazier, you will be able to have a fire immediately, although it is in an extremely humid environment, but when everyone sees the flames, they feel warm in their hearts.

The flame does not solve all the problems, but the flame gives them hope, at least in the face of this humid weather, they are not without any means, we can use the fire to do a lot of things, when the flame burns in each tent, the air inside them is much drier, it turns out that many people have said, in fact, they don't need to drink water for a day, just rely on breathing to filter the moisture in the air, this is enough.

Of course, the most important thing is that the mentality of the soldiers has changed, when they get up the next morning, many soldiers have a smile on their faces, although it continues to rain heavily, but they don't care much anymore, they are still wet after going back, but the fire in the tent will not stop, you can take off your clothes and bake them, and then you can put on dry clothes.

Of course, many soldiers also understand that such an environment can only be obtained by spending money, and it turns out that ordinary people go to bed directly after dark at night, and everyone can't afford to light the lamp at all, because the price of lamp oil is too expensive, whether it is candles or lamp oil, this is not something that a family can afford.

Although life is a little better now, but everyone goes to bed very early at night, and the barracks actually use this thing to directly warm up and do other things, you can imagine how much money our Highness spent, so these people have in their hearts to remember it, in their hearts there is still the original kind of thought, as long as our Highness is down, even if God looks at me unpleasantly, I can do it.

A day and a half after Li Xiang came, the training in the barracks began again, in the past, they couldn't do it because they were wet with clothes, so they had no way to train, and now Li Xiang issued two clean military uniforms to all the people, of course, all of them were exchanged from the system, so that each soldier had four clothes, and there could be enough replacements.

What's more, this kind of heavy rain weather, let them train outside, that is also to train their will to fight, in the upcoming rainy season, the whole of Vietnam may be this kind of weather, if they are not used to it, then how should we fight?

The surrounding Vietnamese spies are actually also watching jokes, this kind of continuous rainy days, they themselves are not very happy, although they have lived here for generations, but they also hate this kind of weather, but they didn't expect the Datang army to be so big, with lamp oil to light the flame for them, this is all the Vietnamese people did not expect, if you Datang is so playful, we really have no way to deal with it.

Every day, you can see a large amount of lamp oil from the north, and the Vietnamese spies also hope to find someone to destroy them, but the problem is that it is pouring rain now, let alone fighting, it is impossible to reconnoiter alone, but the Tang army has transported these things, and I don't know how they got it when the border is so far away? Also, wouldn't collecting so much lamp oil cause difficulties for the local area?

In fact, these things are less than five kilometers north of the barracks, Long San brought more than a thousand soldiers under his command to transport them, their task is to run to this place every day, and then Li Xiang exchanged it, and then pulled back to the barracks.

As for the things that the Vietnamese people can't understand, is it possible that Li Xiang still has to run over to explain it to them? Including many Tang soldiers, they don't understand either.

Seeing that the barracks were already on the right track, Li Xiang brought these people under him over, and we have to do something serious.

Recruit a servant army?

When Li Xiang put forward his opinion, the two generals present were all confused, if we occupy all this place, for example, Goguryeo and Fuso, we can set up a servant army, they will listen to us.

But now that we are at war with the enemy, how can they listen to us? Most of the land in Vietnam is indeed in our hands, and those ordinary people have also said that they have surrendered, but most of them are fake surrenders, and they are still waiting for the southern court to regain the lost territory, if you pull them into the army, it is not enough to watch them every day! We may have had more effort.
