Chapter Twenty-Six

"General, we've been practicing all morning, why don't you rest first?" Tian Dali panted and looked at Li Xian, who was calm, and asked.

Li Xian saw that the soldiers were already sweating profusely, and he estimated the time, and he had been practicing for almost two hours, so he nodded.

Since that day, I purchased 8,000 rattan armor from the vulture bone, and calculated by myself, in addition to the more than 1,000 that were converted into horse armor, and some of the battle damage consumption, there should be more than 6,000 pieces that should be able to be used or fully equipped at present, and I also sighed in my heart, if it weren't for the limited national strength of Shu Han itself, it would not be that 3,000 pieces of Mingguang armor would have to be borrowed and taken over, and at this time, these armors were also transferred from Zhao Yunbu to Wei Yanbu, and it seems that there is really a plan to use Wei Yan as the vanguard of the Northern Expedition.

In fact, at this time, everyone has no time to care about who is the forward general, since the expedition came back to repair a month, the various departments began to train intensively under Zhuge Liang's arrangement, Li Xian faced the problem of the Northern Expedition, and it did seem a little big, after all, the national strength is there, even if you can find a better steelmaking method, you can't stand the fact that the output of iron ore in Shuhan itself is indeed low, even if the number of horses is limited, since it has now become a so-called heavy general, it is necessary to look at the problem from a higher perspective, And it can't be limited to the 3,000 soldiers who fought together with him.

During the lunch break, Li Xian slowly counted all his current soldiers, said that the general Zhengdong, with 8,000 people, in addition to his original divine arm archers and rattan armor heavy cavalry auxiliaries, there are still 7,000 left to be able to fight in battle, of which there were 1,000 cavalry and 2,000 archers who were originally armored, and now there are the original 4,000 infantry, when he first received these reserves, in fact, he also took a closer look, the armor rate of these reserves is not even less than 30%, and they do not hold shields, That is, basically only more than 1,000 people can have the most primitive pig iron armor, which can barely play a protective role, so Li Xianyou has the courage to put the rattan armor that he can get enough on these unarmored soldiers, but when he looks at these soldiers training, he thinks that if he encounters any one to attack himself with fire, his legs are weak.

Either these soldiers will have a certain degree of great lethality, or they will not be thrown out at all, even if they are exchanged for one, they will be earned, and they will simply let these rattan infantry start to be equipped with spears and halberds, which basically belongs to the strategy of zero defense and onslaught in low-end games.

Every time he trained, he looked at the generals around him and cast envious glances, in fact, Li Xian's heart was also empty, but these soldiers were elite in the eyes of others, no matter what armor you had, but you were all wearing armor, that is, the elite of the elite.

Looking at these soldiers, one of the generals was even more blushing, "Although I can't read, I can recognize what these soldiers are wearing." The general didn't say hello either, and walked straight into Li Xianjun's tent who was taking a lunch break.

"Why is General Wang here?" Li Xian hurriedly got up, poured a cup of tea, and asked the general to sit down and speak.

Of course Li Xian knew this person, although he had never taken a face-to-face photo, but he had heard a lot of the name of Wang Ping of General Dangkou, and he was even more sure that he was illiterate in his own words.

Wang Ping shook his head: "General, I saw a lot of your armor in Nanzhong when I was young, but I didn't necessarily cover the whole body so completely, and even had a mask. ”

Li Xian also knew that this Wang Ping was also red-eyed, but only he knew all kinds of suffering, once these things were burned, seeing that you were still red-eyed, he immediately comforted: "General Wang, to be honest, these armors are so worried that they can't be so worried, and when we enter Chang'an, we don't need as many good armor as there are good armor, not to mention, General Wang has always shared weal and woe with the soldiers, and the prime minister must entrust the general with the heavy responsibility." ”

Wang Ping couldn't hear these comforting words, after all, during the southern expedition, if there was anyone who knew the most about the terrain of Nanzhong, of course, it was him, but not only did he not make great military achievements, but Li Xian's appearance was too dazzling, making him stand out from everyone.

Wang Ping just shook his head with a wry smile, and suddenly heard someone report that the prime minister wanted to see him alone, but in a blink of an eye, he saw Li Xian smiling, and he was also suspicious in his heart, so he walked quickly.

Li Xian himself calculated, the time of the conquest of Meng Shu was nearly half a month faster, and it was only six captures and six columns, if it was according to the original time, it should be half a month later, that is, at this moment, the legendary army Wudang Flying Army should appear! Zhuge Liang summoned Wang Ping in such a hurry, obviously because of this matter, because only Wang Ping can communicate with them, then he is the first coach of the Wudang Flying Army, the ace of mountain warfare!

The sudden visit of Wang Ping also gave Li Xian an instant wake-up call, no matter what happens now, what he has to do is to ensure that the First Northern Expedition must not fail, and without Sima Yi's game, Zhuge Liang must not lose! Once he failed, Shu Han had no possibility of turning the tables, and his mind was frantically searching for the reason for the failure of the First Northern Expedition, and lines of clear small words appeared in his mind again: "Contrary to the bright moderation, the behavior is inappropriate." ”

"That's right! Street Pavilion! Li Xian hurriedly picked up the map as if he was electrocuted, and searched like crazy, Street Pavilion, also known as Long Yuan, later renamed Longquan In order to avoid Li Yuan, then at this moment, Street Pavilion has an old city wall left over from the Warring States Period, this city stands on the mountain, according to another time and space saying, Ma Tan Tun Bing Mountain, self-cut water source, so that it was defeated. When he came back to his senses and realized that at this moment, what he had to do was to train a force that could assist the Wudang Fei Army to defend the street pavilion, as long as it could hold out until Zhuge Liang returned from Yongliang to help, it would be a great victory.

In the afternoon, the autumn sun in Chengdu shone on his body, but he couldn't stand the chill that winter was about to come.

"Dali, you have been with our cavalry for more than a year, and you are a veteran, Gong Jie is a good archer, and now most of our troops are infantry, have you ever seen good seedlings in the army?" Li Xian asked.

Tian Dali hurriedly replied: "Many of these soldiers are recruits who have just been recruited this year, and these soldiers are indeed much slower to get started than others. ”

Li Xian is also silent, in this case, the talents in Shu are withering, and it is difficult to find a general.

"The formation of our Destroyer Army is also getting bigger and bigger, these 8,000 people, no matter what, I want to turn them into the elite of the elite, whether it is infantry or archers, understand?" Li Xian said.

Tian Dali nodded, and immediately understood, so he started training in full swing, only the training of the spear vine armor soldiers was personally handled by Li Xian.

"Formation!" Li Xian gave an order.

Some of these recruits began to sway around without their strength, and some even started to walk in mode before swaying to where they should stand, in fact, the formation of the spearmen is much more convenient than the formation of the cavalry, these recruits have to waste half a day of hard work to be able to stand, and even more, stand in the opposite position, until the last moment to change.

"One more time! The last one in place went to get the Ten Army Sticks! Li Xian looked at these recruits, they were also big-headed, so swaying, and even inferior to the current military training of college students, it seemed that if there was no good way, it would be really difficult for these soldiers to get in place quickly.

"Hanxing doesn't have to be anxious, there is a way to do it, but the general doesn't have to bother."

Li Xian hurriedly followed the sound and saw that it was Zhuge Liang who had arrived quietly, and hurriedly bowed down and said: "The last general doesn't know that the prime minister is here, and he will miss the distance." ”

Zhuge Liang hurriedly waved his hand, signaled Li Xian to hurry up, and said slowly: "The general doesn't have to worry, this method is also the method of observing the drill of Wei Yan's army formation the day before yesterday, you can fix all the veterans who originally followed the general in one of the columns, and then when these recruits form a formation again, it will naturally be much better." ”

Li Xian immediately came to his senses, this is to find a reference, if the reference object moves, the military formation will also change, these veterans are naturally more familiar with the actions and passwords of the main general than the recruits, and it is naturally much more convenient to form a formation.

Li Xian immediately placed all the veterans in the second column, formed a formation again, and sure enough, the time was more than doubled, and he immediately trained the formation change on the school field, and the stabbing password in foot combat.

It has been more than a year since this training, day and night, and these soldiers have become more and more familiar with Li Xian's command, and the treasury of Chengdu has risen a lot of taxes due to the rise of football in Yunnan, and it has gradually been filled.

......

"Zhengdong General Li Xian listens to the order! Tomorrow's Prime Minister's Mansion Deliberations! No leave is allowed, and officers on leave will be recalled! ”

"Order!"
