Chapter 743: Elbow Turning In


When the soldiers arrived at Qingliu Pass, seeing that it was getting late, Xia Xun issued a general order: "Camp on the spot" The three armies immediately took action, and according to the terrain, they set up camps, set up tents, dug trenches, set up guards, and buried stoves to cook in an orderly manner.

That's how it came along the way, the army naturally did not enter the county, and Xia Xun did not accept the reception of the officials of the county along the way, and like the three armies, they all lived in the camp.

This is still the heart of the Ming Dynasty, not to mention such a huge army, even if it is a few patrols and camps in the wild, no bandits dare to rob, but Xia Xun has a lot of trouble, and strictly orders the three armies to choose camps according to wartime standards, dig trenches, and arrange camp defense, which can be described as meticulous.

The soldiers were ordered to carry a large number of supplies, they were already sleepy, and they had to do a lot of useless work, and they were quite sloppy at first, but Xia Xun insisted on his opinion, and Na Saihazhi admired Xia Xun very much, obeyed him, and carried out his orders without any discount, and the non-commissioned officers and low-level generals protested to no avail, so they had to cheer up and follow Xia Xun's orders.

Xia Xun will also be fully clothed, and Saihazhi, Jing Feng and other generals to inspect the camp defense, there is a perfunctory, must punish the responsible generals, ordered to reorganize, every day, after a long time, everyone is used to it, and they have to follow the order, and dare not be careless.

Immediately after Xia Xun came up with a new trick, the soldiers marched with heavy loads, set up camp, tired and exhausted, finally deployed and stopped, ate dinner and entered the camp tent to sleep beautifully, the snoring here was like thunder, sleeping was fragrant, and suddenly the sound of killing was everywhere, so that they hurriedly jumped up, dressed and draped, picked up knives and guns, but it turned out that Xia Xun sent a general, led his descendants, and pretended to attack the camp.

Since then, such enemy attacks have also occurred every day, and the army that responds the latest will be fined and forbidden to eat, so the soldiers gradually developed the habit of wearing clothes and armor and sleeping on pillows.

Although the training of the Beijing camp is harder, but the treatment of the soldiers is also good, although these 30,000 elite soldiers are all veterans who have participated in the Battle of Jingjing, but after all, it was a few years ago, from thrift to luxury, it has been a long time since I tried to wear a suit of armor to sleep, at first there were people who could not sleep for a long time, but later, one by one, they got used to it, even if they were wearing a hard helmet and thick armor, they could lie on the ground and fall asleep.

After going on the road every day, Xia Xun will also gather the generals to discuss whether the camp site is the best yesterday, which way the soldiers and horses are the best, what tactics are used, whether the tactics of attacking the camp are clever, and the generals who are clever in attacking the camp or defensive tactics will remember their merits once, and those who perform particularly badly will naturally be demerit once.

It's just a drill, and it will actually be recorded in the merit book, and at this time, which general dares to be careless, and all the generals are like chicken blood, and regard every march, camp, defense, attack camp, and counterattack camp as a battle.

And the soldiers and horses in charge of attacking the camp are also changed every day, and Xia Xun only gave an order: "Today, you are responsible for attacking the camp" As for what tactics this general uses and which section of the camp to attack, it is completely the responsibility of this general himself, Xia Xun ignores it.

Even Xia Xun didn't know about it, and the other generals naturally didn't know it, so everyone had to show their abilities, constantly improve, fill in the loopholes, and adjust their tactics.

Due to the different combat styles and tactics adopted by each general in charge of attacking the camp, the various tactics they encountered in attacking the camp can be described as varied, and these soldiers have never encountered so many attack and defense tactics in their lives, but they have seen them all along the way.

Xia Xun gave an order, and the three armies immediately began to set up camp in an orderly manner, digging trenches and setting up police posts.

They can't be unhappy, there must be an attack on the camp at night, set up the camp early, eat dinner early, and rest in the tent early, so that they can sleep a little longer The generals did not dare to be careless, and accompanied and supervised the soldiers throughout the whole process, digging tents, digging trenches, setting traps and setting up police posts, and added some new ideas of their own to improve the defense, so as to ensure the perfection of their camp deployment.

The success or failure of the attack camp must be directly recorded in the credit book, which is related to their future, who dares not to care Xia Xun watched with satisfaction as the officers and men of the three armies performed their duties, working enthusiastically, and said to Jing Feng: "General Jing, you are responsible for attacking the camp tonight."

As soon as Jing Feng heard this, he hugged his fist to Xia Xun to receive his life, laughed twice, and left happily.

Last time, he was in charge of attacking the camp, because he only thought it was a drill, and he didn't take it too seriously, but he suffered a big loss and was demerit once, and it was his turn to attack the camp again tonight Xia Xun glanced back at the location of the princess's car in the center of the camp, where it had been circled, the tall and exquisite camp tent had been set up, and wisps of cooking smoke rose outside the camp tent.

Originally, according to Xia Xun's intentions, everywhere she went, the princess could go to a nearby prefecture and county to live, and then set off with the army, but Princess An Cheng politely refused his kindness and insisted on staying in the army.

The princess's camp is set up in the center of the camp and does not participate in attack and defense, but how can the sound of fighting outside have no effect on her, and it will inevitably affect her sleep, but this delicate and expensive little princess is actually willing.

Every time Xia Xun thinks about this, he admires it very much, teach their daughters well, of course, this has something to do with the fact that during the martyrdom of King Yan at the beginning, these princes and princesses did not suffer less, but she is now a princess after all, and she does not need to be treated like this at all, which is very rare.

In the princess's tent, Her Royal Highness the princess, who had been running around all day in the dust, had just finished bathing, and the maids had boiled the river nearby, waiting for the princess to bathe and change her clothes, and changed into a light shirt, and her hair was still wet, looking oily, and the princess strolled out of the camp.

Xia Xun's big camp is tight on the outside and loose on the inside, and the princess's sleeping tent inside has its own royal guards, and then forms a second warning circle, and the ministers and generals are not allowed to step further without the permission of the princess, let alone ordinary soldiers, and the precautions are very strict.

Princess An Cheng stood on a high slope and looked out at the scenery.

The camp has basically been set up, and the tents everywhere are like mushrooms rising from the ground, bathed in the setting sun, far and near, there are smoke floating up in the air, which looks very poetic.

In the outermost periphery, the arming continued, the defensive trenches were dug wide and deep, and there were also arrangements for horses, antlers, thorns and other things, which naturally would not be so fast.

Princess An Cheng's appearance is not extremely beautiful, at most it can be regarded as a middle-class posture, which is relatively beautiful.

However, her figure is very good, a seventeen-year-old girl, with a long figure, wearing a silver-white Shu brocade gown, softly outlining her graceful and elegant figure, and the cloak of the crane deer Mingchun picture, with the wind slightly blowing, will be this graceful looming, more amorous.

The waiter Xiaohai tiptoed to her side and said respectfully: "Your Royal Highness Princess, it's cold outside the tent, the slave maid should wait for you to go back to the tent to rest."

"Hongu is not so delicate" Princess An Cheng said, taking a deep breath of fresh and cool breath, and narrowing her eyes pleasantly.

Xiao Hai pouted unhappily and said, "Your Highness, the golden branches and jade leaves, what a noble status, this auxiliary prince is too disagreeable, and he actually let the princess stay in the wilderness all day long.

There can't even be a little thief here, so camping, arming, attacking camps, and practicing all day long, who to show it, it's clear that he is also a grandstander.

See, slave maid."

Before Xiao Hai's words were finished, he was swept away by Princess An Cheng's stern gaze, and he couldn't help but snort, not daring to continue.

"Fu Guogong worked tirelessly, for the sake of my Zhu family, in order to help my father-in-law and my husband share their worries, what do you know?"

Xiaohai said in a panic: "Yes, yes, the slave and maid are talkative, and the slave and maid are guilty."

Princess An Cheng said lightly: "The eunuch forgets to discuss the courtiers, it is another big crime, I see that you don't know what the rules are, kneel down and slap your mouth."

"Yes, yes, the slave is guilty" Xiao Hai quickly knelt down and slapped himself with a crackle, Princess An Cheng was in front of him, he didn't dare to stay strong, and after a while, his cheeks were swollen.

Princess An Cheng snorted coldly and shouted: "Get out of the way, come to the palace again, make noise, and punish you severely."

"Yes, yes, thank you for your grace" Xiao Hai hurriedly kowtowed and thanked him, and ran away with a roll.

"Princess, there is roasted venison for dinner today, does the princess smell it, it smells so fragrant?"

Princess Ancheng's personal maid, thirteen years old, Cardamom Shaoling's love greeted her diligently, and Princess Ancheng smiled slightly: "Little gluttonous cat, is it short of your eating and drinking?"

She took two steps forward, stopped again, and instructed Shu Lian: "You can't drink alcohol in the army, forget about the wine, cut a large plate of roasted deer leg meat, and send it to the Duke of Fuguo."

"Yes" Shulian squatted and agreed.

In Xia Xun's big tent of the Chinese army, Xia Xun and Saihazhi had just returned from inspecting the three armies, and most of the soldiers and horses in each battalion had already begun to eat, and they hadn't taken care of eating and drinking.

Taking off their heavy armor, Xia Xun and Saihazhi washed their hands and cleaned their faces, sat down in the tent, and discussed: "The training of the camp attack, I think I don't need to be so frequent anymore, just come here every three or five or seven days, and tell everyone to always be vigilant."

Next, training should be carried out on the aspects of being attacked on the road, being ambushed, and hastily engaging the enemy.

What does the general think" Xia Xun's army strictly followed the wartime rules, and there were five layers of light and dark guards around the handsome tent, and Shulian was stopped when he arrived at the first layer of security with the venison: "Stand on the heavy ground of the handsome tent, and you must not enter in vain" Shu Lian Xiao Yao's nose curled, and she snorted: "Her Royal Highness said that the princess of the country is hard, and asked the maid to send roasted venison to add a meal." ” The captain of the guard said politely: "There is Miss Lao, the state is discussing the military plane, girl, please hand over the venison to the next and forward." ” Shu Lian put the lacquer plate in his hand heavily, turned around and left, pouted and said: "What a great majesty, the princess gives meat, and I don't know how to thank you personally."

The captain smiled, and walked back with the lacquer plate, the lacquer plate with a buckle cover, as soon as it fell into his hand, it was heavy, and the captain couldn't help but sigh: "What a big piece of venison" sniffed again, and there was a faint tempting aroma of meat escaping, and he couldn't help but salivate: "It's a pity, the prince and the general eat more, if we share it, I'm afraid that one bite will not be enough, and Her Royal Highness the princess will not reward more." ” Even if he wants to go to the front of the tent, he has to check the waist card all the way down, although these guards are familiar with each other, and they are meticulous at this point, but when they get to the tent around the tent, several tents with a radius of more than one acre are already within the inner perimeter, and there is no vigilance.

The lieutenant took the food plate to the tent, and when he asked the prince that he was really discussing in the tent, and he was afraid that the cold would be cold, he put the food plate in the side tent, and went to the kitchen to say that he knew with Celine and Jeanne, who were busy.

Celine and Jeanne have been trained since childhood, and what they learned is the ability to serve nobles, and this ability to flatter nobles is naturally not limited to the kung fu between the beds, but also the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, singing and dancing instruments, and even cooking skills, all of which are extremely exquisite.

As soon as he hit the road, Xia Xun rejected Princess Ancheng's good intentions, did not use her cook, and wanted to share weal and woe with the soldiers.

But after all, he is the commander of the three armies, and he is the prince of the country, how can he really make his diet the same as that of ordinary soldiers, which are those generals under him, according to his rank, there are also different degrees of small stove meals, so his diet is still very rich compared to the soldiers, but no matter how good the materials are, if it is a cook, it can be swallowed, how can he cook delicious dishes with excellent aroma.

Celine and Jeanne only accompanied Xia Xun to eat a meal cooked by the military cook, and immediately replaced him, and from then on, the two of them waited for the prince to eat.

The same simple ingredients, after their skillful cooking, the taste is very different.

Saihazhi is also addicted to it now, and he accompanies Xia Xun every day to patrol the three armies, and he doesn't go back to his sleeping tent at all, and he will definitely chase Xia Xun's handsome tent like a fart.

The first time he returned, Celine and Jeanne were so angry and anxious that they saw that the food they had prepared for their master was eaten by the foodie, as if their master had not yet eaten.

It's a shame that this Sehazhi is cheeky, and he doesn't care about the white eyes of the two of them at all, and the beautiful ones are all accepted by the flattering eyes.

The two girls were so angry and amused that they had no choice but to increase the amount of food they cooked, and the original one serving was now five servings, so that they could be satisfied to hear their master burp.

The two of them were busy in the kitchen, and the captain came to explain to them, although the two girls were good at their work, but it was difficult for the skillful woman to cook without rice, and the materials in her hands were few, and the two girls were very happy to hear that Her Royal Highness the princess had given venison to the prince to eat.

When they had prepared their meals, decorated their food boxes, and sent them to the tent, they went to the tent next to them to bring out the plate of venison.

Celine bent down to end the plate of venison, and pouted: "Why is it so light, this princess is so stingy" Peel off the lid and see, the golden roasted venison inside, cut into slices, neatly stacked, but it is really less, Jeanne said worriedly: "The princess gave such a little venison, if this is seen by the foodie Saihazhi, can our lord still eat it, don't serve it up, keep it for the lord for supper."

Celine's bewitching willow eyebrows were raised slightly, and she smiled charmingly: "Good idea, put it here first, and wait for the foodie to leave."
