Mu Ying was dressed in a bright armor phoenix wing helmet, and he climbed the high platform majestically, and spoke passionately and generously to boost morale, and the soldiers below heard it screaming.

Then it's a matter of shouting slogans together.

"Drive out the Tartars, the Ming Dynasty will win ......"

After completing the process, the army lined up neatly, Mu Ying was at the front, Vice General Lan Yu was on his side, and then there were the left deputy generals, the right deputy generals, the left and right staff generals, and Li Wei.

Zhao Ben, the secretary of the military department, issued a decree and seal to Mu Ying in accordance with the holy order, and at the same time saw off these generals on behalf of the imperial court.

"May the general triumph soon!"

"I wish General Lan a great victory......"

……

Zhao Ben exchanged a few words with the generals one by one, and when he came to Li Wei, he was startled: "What is this?" ”

All the generals are armor of the Ming Dynasty, only Li Wei wears the "god mecha" he created, and the key is that he still wears face armor.

Li Wei hurriedly lifted the mask: "Lord Zhao, it's me!" ”

Zhao Ben's face suddenly darkened, and he secretly said that he knew that he could say a few words to Mu Ying Lanyu, so as not to run into this dog thief.

"Heh, who am I, it turned out to be General Li, then I wish General Li a heroic and heroic sacrifice on this expedition as soon as possible." Zhao Benpi said with a smile.

Li Wei's face stiffened, and he pouted and replied unceremoniously: "Lord Zhao is polite, then I also wish Lord Zhao to do his best, and die early!" ”

"Humph!"

"Humph!"

After Zhao Ben finished his verbosity, the army finally set off under the leadership of Mu Ying and went on an expedition to the Northern Yuan.

Looking at the army in the distance, Zhao Benchang breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly said that this dog thief was finally gone.

In his heart, the biggest advantage of this army expedition is to send away Li Wei's court-stirring stick, without him, the ministers in the court don't have to be distracted and think about how to impeach every day, and they can finally do their business with peace of mind.

The army marched like a long dragon, and this time these troops led by Mu Ying, except for Li Wei's Shenji Battalion, the other 10,000 people were mainly cavalry, so Li Wei's Shenji Battalion was naturally left behind.

Li Wei was not in a hurry, just hanging from a distance.

Cavalry, the march is faster than the infantry, but not much faster, after all, the horse also has to rest, not to mention the weight of grain and grass, and the infantry, although walking slowly, but the endurance of people is good, and they can still catch up if they keep walking.

In fact, in ancient times, human beings relied on the endurance of long-distance raids to consume their prey, and in nature, human beings are not ranked number one in terms of speed, but in terms of endurance, human beings are still quite strong.

However, this human does not include Li Wei himself. He is the weakest chicken among the human race, especially in this Daming.

After leaving the capital, Li Wei hurriedly asked Lu Tang to help him take off the steel armor on his body, this thing is really heavy, and he is already tired for half a day.

After taking off the steel armor, Lu Tang and the others cleaned up one of the carriages under his orders, and with the click of the steel bar and wooden frame that had been prepared long ago, the original flatbed car quickly turned into a gorgeous and comfortable carriage.

It's impossible to ride a horse, don't say he can't ride, even if he can ride, he will definitely not ride, just kidding, thousands of kilometers, riding a horse, then you can't grind all three of his legs out of the cocoon?

After the carriage was arranged, Li Wei came up and lay down comfortably on the bench covered with animal skins, while leisurely admiring the scenery along the road, he took out a jade Ruyi with gold trim from his arms to play.

"Well, the needle doesn't poke, the needle doesn't poke......"

On the first day of the march, the army stopped to rest after walking thirty miles, after all, it was almost noon when they left the city.

And when the army stopped, Li Wei's Shenji battalion had already fallen four or five miles, and it was only in the evening that it could catch up.

In the tent that was temporarily erected, Mu Ying recruited all the generals of all the ministries, and everyone had already held a meeting for a long time, and Li Wei was late.

Seeing him come in, all the generals frowned.

"I've seen General Mu, how are the generals." Li Wei smiled and snored.

"Why are you Shenji Battalion walking so slowly?"

Lan Yu asked loudly with a displeased face, and the other generals were also a little unhappy, after all, no one wants to fight with a drag.

"General Lan doesn't know, you are cavalry, we are infantry, cavalry has horses, infantry has no horses, of course we will be slower!"

Li Wei was patient and gave him a science popularization of cavalry and infantry numbers...... Phew, the difference between the classes.

"Nonsense, the infantry is not as procrastinating as you!"

"It's ......"

"Don't hold everyone back......"

It is true that the marching speed of the infantry is slower than that of the cavalry, but it is really too much for Li Wei to be slow like this, and there is not much distance to march today.

Li Wei pursed his lips, and said in his heart, what does it matter to you, the general Mu Ying hasn't spoken yet.

"Okay, okay, General Li's words are not unreasonable, everyone will just take a moment."

Mu Ying hurriedly made a round, but then instructed Li Wei: "General Li, the time for this expedition is relatively tight, your Shenji Battalion should try to go as fast as possible, don't delay the fighter!" ”

Li Wei thought about it, nodded and agreed: "Okay, don't worry, general." ”

"Humph!" Lan Yu snorted coldly.

But seeing that he agreed, he didn't say anything more, and the generals continued to discuss the route of the road and the supply of grain and grass.

……

Li Wei is having a meeting here, and Lao Zhu in the Qianqing Palace in the capital is also fighting at night.

Zhu Yuanzhang approved the performance, and felt a little tired, so he wanted to take Yu Ruyi and knock on his back to scratch it, but he scratched the position in his memory, but he didn't catch anything.

"Huh?"

Zhu Yuanzhang stood up and searched again, but still didn't find it, and his face suddenly changed.

"Someone!"

A guard hurriedly came in and knelt down: "See Your Majesty." ”

"Who has been to the Qianqing Palace today?"

"Master Li Wei and Master Li came this morning, and the prince came in the afternoon."

The guard replied truthfully.

Zhu Yuanzhang's heart suddenly cooled after hearing this, no need to think about it, Yu Ruyi must have been stolen by that dog thing again.

"This dog thing, why is it stealing our itch again, he can't change it??"

Zhu Yuanzhang roared angrily, and his voice echoed in the Qianqing Palace.

It's a pity that now that Li Wei is gone, he can't catch someone if he wants to......

The next day, before leaving, Li Wei asked Abu to gather all the officials under his command and teach them to tie leggings.

The leggings are still quite useful, thinking that the ancestors relied on two legs back then, but they set a record of infantry marching in fourteen hours and one hundred and forty miles, and Li Wei didn't expect to compare with those predecessors, just speed up the march to catch up with Lan Yu's cavalry.

Thousands of households gathered, all waiting for him to speak.

"Today I will teach you a marching secret, everyone is optimistic, go back and teach the brothers below again, they are all optimistic."

Under the gaze of everyone, Li Wei took the prepared cloth belt, wrapped one end around the leg from the upper of the shoe, and turned the leggings over every two circles to ensure that the flat leg surface continued to hit the crook of the leg.

Tie the leggings, he tried to take two steps, and then said to everyone: "Everyone see, this thing is called leggings, in the long-distance march, it can slow down the rapid downflow of blood in the legs, and play a role in relieving soreness. ”

The soldiers can't see it, so it's not difficult, but is it really useful?

"General, this, leggings, is it really useful?" Song Zhonghu asked suspiciously.

"Of course, but you may feel uncomfortable in the first two days of using this thing, and it will be fine in two days, so you can try it."

"Okay, my subordinates obey."

Although there were still some doubts, the general had an order, and they still arranged the leggings according to Li Wei's instructions.

In the next two days, Li Wei's Shenji Battalion still marched slowly and leisurely, hanging far behind the army, and arrived one step late at night as usual, but fortunately he did not fall behind.

However, the Shenji Battalion dragged its feet every day, and it was inevitable that it would be stared at and ridiculed by other teams, Li Wei didn't care, but the soldiers below couldn't stand it, and some even had disputes with others.

On the third day, Li Wei asked Abu to call Song Zhong over again and asked:

"Song Zhong, how do the brothers' leggings feel? Got used to it? ”

"General, the soldiers have already adapted to it, and I still felt a little uncomfortable when I first used it two days ago, but after getting used to it in the past two days, I feel much lighter than the army in front of me, and the leggings that the general thought of are really good!"

Song Zhong hurriedly replied, he didn't expect the general to come up with this method really worked, at first his legs and stomach would feel uncomfortable, but after two days, after this feeling disappeared, he walked much brisker.

Li Wei nodded: "Okay, then speed up and let them see the speed of our march." ”

"Okay, my subordinates will give the order!"

Song Zhong happily agreed, and immediately turned around to convey the order.

The people of the Shenji Battalion have been holding their breath for a long time, but now they are used to leggings, and they can walk a lot easier, and after hearing the order, they suddenly lifted their spirits and accelerated their pace, if it weren't for the generals to stop some people would have trotted up.

The speed of the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion has increased a lot, although it is still not as good as the cavalry, but it is not much worse, and furthermore, the carriages used by Li Wei for the Shenji Battalion have been carefully modified by him to the Ordnance Bureau, and the speed is much faster than the other squeaky broken wooden carts, and at this time, the infantry went faster, and it didn't take long to catch up with the cavalry team in front of them.

The cavalrymen, who were feeding the horses grass and resting, saw that the people chased after them, and opened their mouths in surprise.

Are these people eating dragon and tiger bone particles today? How do you run so fast?

The soldiers who had been arguing before were dumbfounded when they saw these cavalrymen, and they all grimaced, and then walked two quick steps past them.

Lan Yu was drinking water and resting with Sun Ke, the general of the left staff, while chatting, when he suddenly saw a group of people in cloth armor walking over from the side.

Both of them were startled, got up and looked around, only to see that at this time, the people of the Shenji Battalion had already caught up while they were resting, and they were about to complete overtaking.

"Hey, why did these people from the Divine Machine Battalion go so fast today?"

Sun Ke couldn't help but feel a burst of surprise as he watched these people move forward quickly, as if they had taken medicine.

At this time, a gorgeous and swaggering carriage galloped by, and when passing by them, Li Wei opened the curtain and said provocatively:

"Yo, General Lan, General Sun, are you still resting? Hurry up, I'll be waiting for you! ”

Lan Yu and Sun Ke's faces changed in unison, thinking that if they were left behind by these two-legged ones, it would be a big shame.

Lan Yu had a calm face, looked at Li Wei's carriage from afar, and couldn't take a break, and immediately shouted: "Don't rest, let me set off immediately!" ”

The cavalrymen who were resting on feeding their horses were given the order to stop resting and continue on the road!

After all, the cavalry was much faster than the infantry, and they quickly overtook the Shenji Battalion after setting off, but this time they were no longer as relaxed as before, and as soon as they relaxed and rested, the Shenji Battalion would immediately catch up.

And the cavalrymen who used to laugh at them leisurely are now miserable by them, the army has just set off, and there is still plenty of time, so there is no need to rush to march at all, but let the Shenji battalion rush so much that they have to step up their pace, and they dare not relax.
