Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 848 Feng Ya Song (2)

   Today Fei dived out of Pingyang, instead of heading northwest directly to Taoshan Mountain, he went a little further north to Pingyang County Bing Camp. The so-called big camp of the county soldiers in Pingyang was so large that it had never existed before Feiqian came to Bingzhou.

Soldiers can be said to be the foothold of Feiqian and Bingzhou. Therefore, for the base camp of Pingyang, it is more careful whether it is site selection or construction. In addition, Feiqian now has a large number of cavalry. The barracks on this piece of land occupy an extremely large area, enclosing several valleys, and occupying an entire small branch that flows into Fenshui, almost connecting with the camp of the workshop.

  Anyway, in this era, the land has not been sold to sky-high prices, and Fei Qian is the leader here, so no matter how much territory it occupies, no one dares to have any opinions.

The mixture of **** and lime provided by the Feiqian workshop has been widely used as a substitute for cement in later generations. Due to production constraints, the supply cannot be opened yet. However, in the barracks in Pingyang The camps and workshop camps have been greatly strengthened.

  At this moment, in the Pingyang barracks, it is a scene of enthusiasm.

Most of the infantry camps are concentrated on the hillside near the west, while the cavalry is located on a relatively flat periphery, located downstream of the water source. Because the horses are very delicate, in order to ensure the health of the horses, they need to be washed from time to time. It is also less likely to cause some bacterial infections between humans and animals.

Of course, on the one hand, for the sanitation of water intake, and on the other hand, in order to ensure that once the camp is besieged, or the upstream water source is cut off and other extreme situations, several deep wells were dug in the infantry camp as places for daily soldiers to draw water. .

On the ground, the loess has basically been trampled firmly, and different areas have been marked out with white ash. Tents made of cow, sheepskin and Gebu are stretched in the white ash frame. In addition to the role of marking In addition, it can also prevent some small reptiles from entering the area where the tent personnel live.

All kinds of flags and flags are densely spread outside the tent, the flag of the commander of the Chinese army and the flags of five parties and five figures, etc., plus various flags for the recognition of orders, arranged according to the regulations of the army, one by one fluttering in the cold wind , quite a desolate atmosphere.

Originally, the more than 500 soldiers brought by Fei Qian to Bingzhou, now after several battles, except for those who unfortunately died in the battle, most of them have been promoted to the rank of Sergeant Major, and some have even been promoted to Marquis. The post of captain at the middle and senior officer level is just one step away.

Today, these earliest soldiers have become the most reliable group under Fei Qian's command. In other words, they are already a community of interests in Fei Qian. Increase, as long as these soldiers have a little bit of brains, they will understand that the current situation is developing upwards, so they are naturally full of fighting spirit, and they will work extra hard even to train ordinary recruits.

   It is the greatest blessing to meet a commander like Fei Qian in this world. Not to mention the full amount of food and salary, the equipment alone is already comparable to the imperial court's imperial army. The new recruits are wearing leather armor first, and the swords and spears made of ordinary materials are well matched. If they perform well in the training and are selected for crossbowmen, sword and shield soldiers, etc., they will be replaced with corresponding soldiers. Weapons, especially the high-quality iron armor, after wearing it, it is almost an extra life, which makes the soldiers of these new curtains greedy.

   More importantly, follow Fei Qian to win battles!

   This is more important than anything else.

   Those who win will have land, trophies, and everything they have today. Everyone knows this.

Of course, there will be casualties in victorious battles, but at least there will be a lot of glory and pensions after death, and Feiqian also specially built a wounded barracks, and invited doctors to treat and condition these wounded soldiers, which has greatly reduced the number of post-war soldiers. Chances of attrition.

At this time, the barracks had just finished the first practice of getting up every morning, and it was the time for early breastfeeding. In the open space at the back camp, a long row of stoves was built, and now it is hot When Tenteng was about to boil the pot.

As Fei Qian spread the method of fermenting dough, the logistics cooks in charge of preparing meals in the army also naturally learned this uncomplicated technique. Unlike the previous dough, the fermented dough is not only soft and delicious , and because of the air bubbles, the volume will be larger, and it will be easier to form a feeling of fullness. The most important thing is that it is better digested and easily absorbed by the human body. Therefore, basically all pasta in the military no longer use raw noodles. It was replaced by fermented dough. Although the south side of the dough is darker and yellower, but with the pot of soup boiled with wild vegetables and lamb bones, these soldiers can smell the fragrance, swallow their saliva non-stop, and each of them is holding a wooden bowl. Chopsticks, line up and wait for the food.

   At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside the camp, and orders came from far and near, and then they all came together in one loud voice: "Hungarian Huong Zhonglang is here!"

It turned out that Fei Qian didn't go to the big tent of the Chinese army, but went around in a circle, and came to the back camp with Ma Yue and Xu Huang. When he saw many soldiers ready to salute, he laughed and said to the soldiers: " The sky is big and the earth is big, eating is the biggest thing, so don't be too polite! Be careful not to drop the bowls and chopsticks!"

  The soldiers laughed when they heard the words.

Fei Qian stopped and walked casually, called a few names in the queue, and then chatted with each other with a smile, then came to the stove, stretched his head to look at the mutton bone soup in the cauldron, and said, "It just so happens that someone didn't eat it either. Zaofu, do you have extra bowls and chopsticks, how about making a bowl for someone?"

  The cook behind the cauldron was standing cautiously. Hearing Fei Qian's words, he hurriedly turned around to fetch a pair of bowls and chopsticks, and gave Fei Qian a bowl tremblingly.

  The mutton bones have been boiled for a long time, and a few small pieces of mutton are floating in the bowl, together with some Chinese cabbage and some green leaves and seedlings from the field. It is a little oily, but it is definitely not a delicate food.

  Fei Qian took the soup, then grabbed a black-gray noodle bun in a bamboo basket on the side, surrounded by the guards, sat down on a random stone on the side, and ate it in big mouthfuls.

Ma Yue and Xu Huang, who were behind Fei Qian, glanced at each other, and then also behind Fei Qian, made a bowl of soup in exactly the same way, found a dry place beside Fei Qian, sat down cross-legged, and Fei Qian Let's eat together.

   I don’t know how many soldiers are waiting to receive their meals, especially those newly recruited soldiers. At this time, they all watched Fei Qian and others eating deliciously, and couldn’t help being a little dazed...

Fei Qian ate very fast, with two mouthfuls of hot soup, he ate the black-faced steamed bun, then cleaned up the leaves of wild vegetables in the bowl, stood up, met the soldiers' eyes, and said with a smile: "Will everyone be full just by looking at this? Eat it quickly, and practice hard after eating. You must know that you sweat more in normal times and bleed less in wartime!"

   "I would like to follow Zhonglang's teachings!" Several clever military princes took the lead and shouted in unison, and then the other soldiers followed suit.

   Feiqian nodded, and then headed for the Chinese army tent with Ma Yue and Xu Huang, leaving behind these soldiers who couldn't help but started whispering...

This is a man of two thousand shi. If you want to say that his status is noble, he is completely different from a mud-legged person like himself. Naturally, he should be a bell ringing and eating, and he can't get tired of eating. How could he think that he would be in the same stove as himself? Foraging?

  Although there are a few people who are more knowledgeable and know that Fei Qian is doing the trick, but among the princes in various places, how many can really do it?

   "Same clothes and robes, we can make a teacher..."
