Everyone watched Bai Sheng digging a pit like a fool, but when they saw him digging deeper and deeper, digging bigger and bigger, they gradually believed eighty percent, combined with the "crazy words" he said to Huang Sheng before, some people guessed: "This Song Junjia is really crazy." ”

Bai Sheng is really crazy, or pretending to be crazy. Curiosity could not stop hunger and fatigue, in short, eating and sleeping were the first things, so no one paid attention to him doing this stupid thing, and they went to work separately.

Seeing that the others were scattering, Song Junyi also borrowed a shovel from another soldier who had dug a wild stove, jumped into the pit and dug with Bai Sheng, and asked while digging: "It seems that you think that this group of thieves in the mountains is good at long-range attacks, don't you?"

Bai Sheng stopped in shock, looked at Song Junyi like a ghost, and asked for a while, "Brother, who are you?"

"I'm your younger brother, I know your brother's mind when I'm young...... You see, can't you dig it up like this?" Song Junyi didn't stop, but instead asked Bai Sheng for technical guidance.

Song Junyi was not mistaken, Bai Sheng dug trenches, or bunkers, which were field fortifications that machine guns could not penetrate in later generations.

The pit is not too deep, and the person stands in the pit with his chest level with the ground, but the height of the pit below the lower abdomen has a horizontal expansion, which is to prevent the enemy from using a projectile attack - just hide in the horizontal hole in the pit, unless a guided missile can hit it.

But the world of this era, of course, did not have guided missiles, so the trenches dug by Bai Sheng were foolproof underground bunkers.

Bai Sheng saw that he continued to pretend to be dizzy, so he had to continue excavating, in addition to his and Song Junyi's positions, he also wanted to dig out some space for Huang Shang's wife and children, and asked in a low voice: "Don't talk nonsense to me, you are definitely not Song Junyi!"

Song Junyi smiled: "Then who do you say I am, who do you say I am, I am who I am, do you think it is good?"

Bai Sheng was speechless.

Of course, the busy people also saw the Song brothers go crazy together, but no one paid attention to it anymore.

The two men dug the trench to get twice the result with half the effort, and the progress was extremely fast, far better than the usual sappers, and it only took half an hour to dig a trench large enough to hold ten people, and they did not even delay their own food.

Bai Sheng simply brought a marching pot, and the remaining stewed cakes in the pot were left for them, authentic Henan flavor, and the brothers ate very fragrant while guarding the edge of the pot.

The night was thicker, but the treetops in the valley were missing the crescent moon that they should have, the soldiers who had eaten had laid hay on the ground to rest, the horses were tied to the trees on the hillside, Wang Wenbin slept in his exclusive military tent, and the family of Huang Shang also returned to the car to rest.

Only Bai Sheng and Song Junyi sat side by side on the edge of the trench, holding bows and arrows in their hands, listening to Song Junyi whisper the essentials of archery.

A trench alone will definitely not work, and if there is no means of counterattack, the enemy will only need to cover up and bury the two alive with a stamped foot.

“...... The moment the arrow leaves the string, you have to hold your breath and at the same time you have to keep the bow arm steady, because the average archer has a hard time firing the bow, and the bow arm will tremble, so that the arrow will be less accurate......"

"Well, I remember, but I think now I need to learn how to aim from the back as if it were a flat shot, and you think, if there are bandits coming, will they appear on the top of the hill or on the cliffs around the valley?"

"That's true, but I think if they show up close to the top of the mountain, you and I won't be able to fight back, so we'll have to hide in this ditch. ”

"Why?"

"Because the bow doesn't work. I've seen it, and the bows we are given are all one-stone bows, and even if such a bow is thrown, it can only shoot up to a distance of 300 paces at most, and if it is a flat shot, 200 steps is the limit, but if it is a target near the mountain, this mountain is at least 70 zhang high, right? I can......'t shoot it at all."

After Song Junyi's explanation, Bai Sheng learned that ancient Chinese bows were divided into one stone bow, two stone bows, three stone bows and even the legendary nine stone bows.

One stone in the Song Dynasty was 92.5 Song Jin, which was equivalent to 120 city jin or 60 kg in later generations. That is to say, if you want to open a full one-stone bow, you need to have at least 100 catties of tension in both arms.

Don't say that it is a three-stone bow and above, that is, a two-stone bow, there are few people in the world who can pull it apart, and Huang Zhong, a famous general in the Three Kingdoms period, was proud of being able to open a two-stone bow when he was old.

Therefore, anyone who can open a full two-stone bow and put it into the army is definitely a general.

As for the legendary nine-stone bow, except for the shameless impersonation of King Qi Xuan, who liked to brag in the Spring and Autumn Period, if there is really such a bow in this world, then probably only Hou Yi in ancient times can pull it away.

At the moment, if you shoot at the top of the cliff with a stone bow at a near-vertical angle, and are affected by gravity, then you can only shoot about 50 zhang before you fall with all your strength, so you can't talk about aiming at all, because the range can't be reached.

The night breeze in the valley is much lighter than outside, and the mountains and fields are silent in early winter. The two men on the edge of the ditch stopped talking about bows and arrows and began to think about their own thoughts.

Suddenly, Bai Sheng shouted: "Ouch, my stomach hurts, ouch is no good, I have to be convenient." Holding his stomach as he spoke, he slipped out of the ditch, and squatted in the corner of the ditch and pulled it up.

"Isn't it, brother?" Song Junyi was very dissatisfied, "Even if I'm not afraid of being smoked by you, brother, you can't pull here!"

"Haha......" Bai Sheng was very happy, and he couldn't hold back his laughter, this Song Junyi finally couldn't guess what he wanted to do, so he quickly stopped laughing and said: "I'm sorry, brother, it hurts too suddenly, if you go to find another place, I'm afraid that it will be pulled in your pants." ”

"I don't believe it! You're laughing, are you kidding me?"

Bai Sheng saw that the lie was exposed, so he had to tell another lie: "Aren't I afraid of being attacked by bandits, I am safe here, and you give me the Dharma protection, so I can rest assured." ”

"Well, there's some truth to that, it's just ...... You're really going a little bit too far, and that's disgusting. ”

"Uh-huh, I'm sorry. Bai Sheng had to apologize.

While apologizing, he untied the cowhide bracer, took out a piece of rice paper from his sleeve, kneaded it into a ball with both hands, and after unfolding it, the rice paper became much softer, folded it in half, and tore it into four parts, and began to wipe his cheeks.

Song Junyi's eyes widened in shock, "Brother, why are you wiping your ass like this?"

It is said that after the people of the Song Dynasty went to the toilet, they all used stone chips and wood chips to scrape, and the shape of the scraper was like the ice cream stick of later generations. Even if the emperor is as honorable as the emperor, he only uses some silver and jade scrapers, and no one used paper to clean himself until the Yuan Dynasty.

As for the soldiers marching in the mountains, they even used local materials to clean the chrysanthemums, and there was no one like Bai Sheng who did this, of course Song Junyi couldn't understand it.

"Well, that's pretty much enough. Bai Sheng ignored Song Junyi's questioning, lifted his pants, picked up the marching pot on the edge of the trench and buttoned it on the steaming poop, "Isn't this okay! ”

"What's enough, what's the use of this thing?" Song Junyi suddenly found that his understanding of this man was still very superficial, far from being familiar.

Bai Sheng was very proud, and said in his heart that you finally couldn't guess my thoughts, "I don't tell him about ordinary people!"

Suddenly, the sound of Huang Shang came from another mountain peak next to him, and the voice was full of energy, causing echoes in the mountains: "Who pretends to be a ghost? Who pretends to be a ghost? People pretend to be ghosts, people pretend to be ghosts, pretend to be ghosts, gods and ghosts, ghosts, ......ghosts,

No one answered Huang Shang's question, but there were countless lights on the top of the mountains, and the color of the lights was not the usual orange or orange red, but rather a strange blue!

I can't see anyone by the lights!

The soldiers resting in the valley were startled, Wang Wenbin walked out of the tent with an iron spear in his left hand and a big bow in his right hand, and shouted: "All the troops listen to the truth, take the carriage as the center, form a formation, and prepare for battle!"
