"The cars are scattered, the horses are rustling, and the pedestrians have their bows and arrows at their waists."
This was indeed the scene when other battalions of the Ming Dynasty set out.
But Shanziying is different. There is no bow and arrow on the waist. There is a tight cloth belt around the waist, and brass-colored bullets are pinned on it, which emits a golden light under the sunlight. On the right is a hanging
The brand-new revolver and the gun bag made of cowhide have a hint of simplicity.
Anyway, Han Du got 10,000 revolvers from the Ordnance Bureau and simply distributed new ones to everyone. As for the original old ones, they were directly stored in Shanzi Camp without having time to dispose of them. .??.??
On the left waist and buttocks, there are three grenades hanging, no, they are thunder. I have to say that Lao Zhu’s skill in naming is really high. Even Han Du has been saying that these are grenades, but no matter what the last
The soldiers at the bottom, as well as the masters like Xu Chengfei who were both civil and military, all unanimously praised it and said, "This is the thunder that shakes the sky. When I come, the king of heaven comes, it is also the thunder that shakes the sky. The name given by the emperor is so good and domineering!"
In addition, each person also has a two-foot-square steel shield and a long knife, all of which are carried on their backs.
The 50,000 troops of the Five Military Camps, plus the 8,000 troops of the Shanzi Camp, totaling 58,000 troops, all passed through the navy and were directly dropped into Peiping. Together with the army of King Yan, they attacked the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty from the west.
The Eight Thousand Shanzi camp gathered at the water village to board the boat. Han Du looked at Tang Ding coming towards him.
"Brother Han, the warship is ready and can be boarded at any time."
"Thank you for your hard work." Han Du nodded with a smile, then turned to Xu Chengfei and introduced: "This is Tang Ding, the eldest son of Duke Xin. This is Xu Chengfei, the general of Shanziying. I will rely on him to charge into the battle in this Northern Expedition.
Already."
After all, Tang Ding was the future heir to the Duke of Xin Kingdom, and in terms of status, Xu Chengfei was far inferior. Therefore, Han Ducai deliberately pointed out the importance of Xu Chengfei, so that he would not appear to be superior to Tang Ding.
And Xu Chengfei was also very sensible. He quickly raised his fists and saluted, and said to Tang Ding: "The last general, Xu Chengfei, has met the young master."
Tang Ding didn't say anything. He glanced at Han Du first. Seeing Han Du smiling and nodding towards him, Tang Ding turned around and helped Xu Chengfei up quickly. He said with a smile: "Brother Xu Xian is young and promising. You can get the title of marquis and general at your fingertips. This
The Northern Expedition is an opportunity. You don’t need to call me young father-in-law. I’m a little older than you, so I’ll ask you to call me brother.”
"My little brother Xu Chengfei, pay my respects to Brother Tang." Tang Ding had already said this, but Xu Chengfei still didn't know what he meant? He was doing it for Han Du's sake, thinking that he was one of his own. He could make the future better.
The country of Xin is recognized as one of its own, which is something many people dream of.
Something to get?
Xu Chengfei naturally had no reason to miss it.
Han Du saw it and smiled happily. He was indeed very satisfied with Xu Chengfei. Although he was the commander of Shanzi Camp, he could only go to Shanzi Camp a handful of times. All matters of Shanzi Camp were important.
Xu Chengfei is taking care of it.
Moreover, even though Xu Chengfei contributed the most, he never thought of excluding Han Du. Otherwise, he would not hold back the revolver and wait for Han Du to come back, then let the soldiers beg Han Du for distribution.
With such a day, Han Du's authority in Shanzi Camp was established.
Since Xu Chengfei worked hard and did not seek utilitarianism for Han Du's sake, Han Du would naturally reciprocate and give Xu Chengfei a chance to get to know Tang Ding.
Han Du guessed that Xu Chengfei was originally Li Wenzhong's favorite general and had a bright future. But now that Li Wenzhong is gone, his future may not look so bright anymore. Otherwise, he wouldn't be left in Shanzi Camp
So many years.
And Han Du didn't want Xu Chengfei's talent to be buried, so he introduced him to Tang Ding, which at least gave Xu Chengfei one more choice to avoid being trapped to death.
Some things just need to be understood in your heart. We are not three-year-olds anymore, so there is no need to speak out. The three of them looked at each other and smiled, then hid everything in silence.
"Let someone board the ship. The sooner we get to Peking, the more time we will have to prepare." Han Du said to Xu Chengfei.
"Yes." Xu Chengfei nodded.
More than a dozen warships carried Shanziying down the Yangtze River.
This time the navy did not cover up at all, and just let the tall warships gallop on the river. Everyone who saw it was excited and excited.
But the officers and soldiers of Shanziying on the boat were not happy at all. After all, they were not navy soldiers. Although they could not be said to be landlubbers, it was at least the first time they had been on such a warship.
It was fine when the warship was sailing in the Yangtze River. Perhaps it was because the time on board was too short and there was no response. When the warship arrived at the sea, the sea and sky were the same color, and the endless scene not only did not make the people of Shanziying feel relaxed and happy, but instead
Seeing the same scene all around, everyone was spinning.
A large part of the people in the Shanzi Camp began to get seasick, and only a small number of those with extraordinary talents were fine.
For a while, the sound of vomiting came and went on the boat, one after another, like playing music.
When the navy men saw it, not only did they not show any sympathy, but they laughed happily in schadenfreude.
"Spit it out, you'll get used to it."
"It's just seasickness. When you vomit until your rake hands become soft and you no longer have the strength to stand up, you won't be sick anymore."
The people from the Shanzi camp were hunched over and vomiting, but the navy people were watching the fun, and at most they were enthusiastic about giving a wooden bucket to these seasick people.
Don't underestimate such a wooden barrel. A seasick person's eyes will light up as if he has seen some treasure. As soon as he grabs it, he buries his head in the barrel and never wants to take it out again.
Forgetting that the soldiers were seasick, I didn't expect that Xu Chengfei was also seasick.
Han Du, Tang Ding and Xu Chengfei were originally sitting together drinking. Unexpectedly, as they drank, Han Du saw that Xu Chengfei's expression was getting worse and worse. His face became redder and redder, and his lips were tightly closed.
Not saying a word, not even taking a bite of food or wine.
"What's wrong with you?" Han Du put down his chopsticks and chewed slowly twice.
Suddenly something occurred to me and I couldn't help but ask: "Aren't you seasick?"
Xu Chengfei was completely speechless. He felt as if he had been stimulated by Han Du's words, which made him try his best to endure it.
"Brother Xu, if you can't help it, don't hold it back. Just spit it out. As for seasickness, it will be fine once you make vomiting a habit." Tang Ding smiled and looked at Xu Chengfei with gloating.
Remember when he first boarded the ship, wasn't he vomiting heartbreakingly and dying? The hardships he had endured and the sins he had endured, when he saw others trying to taste them again, the joy of physical and mental pleasure
It's really indescribable.
So, being stimulated by Tang Ding, Xu Chengfei seemed to have reached the breaking point of his endurance. He could no longer bear it, ran out in a few strides, and lay on the side of the ship, vomiting.
Han Du and Tang Ding sat there and watched, both of them bursting into joyous laughter of "Kukukuku".
Xu Chengfei vomited for a while, and the nausea in his heart was relieved. He felt a little better, and he forced himself to endure the discomfort and returned to his seat. Looking at the two people who were gloating about their misfortune, he couldn't help complaining: "You still eat this smell on the ship now?"
Go down?"
Tang Ding looked like he had foresight, raised his head and said: "That's why I asked people to bring the food and wine to the bow of the ship.
, this place is spacious and bright, and the sea breeze is blowing, no matter how strong the sour smell is, it can’t be blown here.”
Han Du picked up a chopstick with a smile and swallowed it slowly as if nothing had happened, indicating that the sound of vomiting on the ship had no impact on him at all. He deliberately raised his eyebrows and nodded to Xu Chengfei, and said lightly: "What does this sour smell mean?
You have never been to the ocean. If you have the opportunity to go to the ocean, then you will know what a sour smell is. The smell is ten times stronger than this, and you have to eat, drink, and sleep in this smell."
Xu Chengfei didn't know if Han Du was bragging, but the smell alone made him unbearable. It was really hard to imagine what a tragic scene it would be if it was ten times stronger than this.
Moreover, Xu Chengfei didn't have time to confirm with Han Du. Just after sitting down for a while, his stomach began to churn again. He suddenly covered his mouth, turned around and ran towards the side of the ship, and there was another wave of vomiting.
Seeing that he was vomiting pitifully, Han Du thought for a moment and said, "I have a way to cure your seasickness. Do you want to know?"
After Xu Chengfei heard this, not only did he not express his gratitude to Han Du for his kindness, but he became resentful in his heart. After vomiting, he wiped his mouth and returned to his seat and said dissatisfied: "You didn't come up with it earlier if you had a way. Are you deliberately thinking about it?"
Do you want to see me make a fool of myself?"
"You really have a way?" Tang Ding obviously didn't believe Han Du's words. You must know that his father told him when he let him on the boat that there was no way to deal with seasickness. He could only rely on vomiting.
You can throw up whatever you can and then slowly get used to it.
His father has commanded the navy for many years, so it stands to reason that there is no way that Han Du knows, and his father would not know about it.
When Xu Chengfei heard Tang Ding's words, he glared at Han Du angrily. His thoughts were similar to Tang Ding's. Since there was a way, it was impossible for Han Du to know about it, but Tang Ding didn't know about it, right?
"Are you kidding me again?"
Han Du shook his head and said, "What I said is true. I really know a very effective method."
Xu Chengfei immediately felt relieved. He still knew Han Du's abilities. Since Han Du said so, it shouldn't be false.
After waiting for a while and not hearing anything from Han Du, Xu Chengfei's heart started to surge again, and he couldn't help but said hurriedly: "You should tell me what I can do quickly."
Han Du smiled, put down his chopsticks, reached out and brought a plate of food to Xu Chengfei, gesturing for him to take it.
"It's already this time, do you think I can still eat?" Xu Chengfei's tone was full of complaints.
