After the three commanders and the thousands of households left, Ling Su and Xue Wei had a tacit understanding and did not leave. They still stood in front of Shen Yi. Mr. Shen waved his hand and motioned for the two of them to sit down.
After the two people sat down, Shen Yi continued: "The section of the river we want to defend was told to you on the way. There is still more than a month left before we can change defenses. In this more than a month, you guys We must do everything possible to collect all information about Huai'an Prefecture and the Qi army across the river."
Both of them bowed their heads slightly.
"My subordinate understands."
"besides."
Shen Yi coughed and said, "Jiang Sheng, bring me the things in."
Jiang Sheng, who had been guarding the door, quickly walked in holding a wooden box. He opened the wooden box in front of Shen Yi.
Inside the wooden box are ten monocular telescopes.
"This thing is called a telescope."
Master Shen looked calm.
"Just by listening to the name, you should be able to understand its function. It can see very far away."
"This time, I brought a total of ten. Here are ten. The two of you will take five down first."
"Distribute it to the scout camp below and let the scouts use it."
On the battlefield, being able to see the enemy even a quarter of an hour in advance may make a big difference to the war situation, and the telescope is indeed an artifact for the current scouts.
Not only does it allow them to spot enemies further away.
Sometimes it can also improve their chances of survival by allowing them to avoid enemy cavalry.
Neither of the two commanders had seen this thing before, and Shen Yi didn't show it to them on the way. At this moment, both of them were a little curious. Each of them took one and put it on their eyes, with excitement on their faces.
When Shen Yi saw the appearance of the two people, he felt a little funny in his heart, and immediately said: "You two should each keep one of these things in your hands. When fighting, you can wait and see the situation on the battlefield, which will be helpful for emergency command."
"The rest should be used by the scouts as much as possible,"
Mr. Shen paused and said: "In the future, many more telescopes will be delivered. By then, more than a thousand households will have one for each of you, but..."
"This thing must be used with care, and at least ensure that it does not fall into the hands of Qi people within two years."
When people have my essence, it is far worse than when people don’t have it.
Although there were other telescopes in this era, such as those made of polished pure natural crystal, such things were destined to be impossible to be used on a large scale. They were just playthings of the powerful. Therefore, it was impossible for the Qi army to possess such things.
Although there is no impermeable force in the world, Dachen's army will be there, and Northern Qi's army will be there sooner or later, but as long as there are no Qi people within two years, it will be somewhat easier for Shen Yi to fight in the past two years.
The two of them nodded in agreement.
Shen Yi rubbed his temples, took a deep breath, and said, "Otherwise, there is nothing else."
"During this period, should you train or train? Once the supplies on the road are delivered and distributed, we will set off north to change defenses with the Huaihe Navy."
They both lowered their heads and clasped their fists.
"I obey my orders."
"Okay, General Ling, you are the commander-in-chief. You go down and do your work first. I will give instructions to General Xue."
Ling Su lowered his head slightly, clasped his fists and said, "I will retire at the end of the day."
After Ling Su left, Xue Wei immediately became more lively. He smiled at Shen Yi and said, "I am following Mr. Shen again. One of my subordinates is in Guangzhou these days, and the Japanese pirates have no chance to fight." , it’s boring and boring to death.”
Shen Yi looked at him and snorted: "You have a temperament like yours, so you have to be dull and tempered before you can become a good person in the future."
Xue Wei smiled awkwardly and scratched his head in embarrassment.
"This time to defend the Huaihe River, you must fight hard."
"Remember especially, don't be impulsive."
Shen Yi sighed and said: "Strive for success."
Xue Wei quickly lowered his head, cupped his fists and said, "I obey my orders!"
"How do you recognize the characters? Have you read the military manual for you?"
Xue Wei immediately nodded and said: "When I was in Guangzhou, I hired a gentleman to teach me how to read. The two concubines I took later were also literate. I followed them and learned almost all the words. Already."
"I have read the military book you gave me word for word many times. If I don't understand anything, I will ask the two concubines. I have read it through several times now."
"good."
Shen Yi nodded happily and said with a smile: "In two days, I will give you two more books. You can read them slowly."
"You are a brave person, and you are not stupid either."
Mr. Shen smiled and said: "As long as you are willing to learn, you will always be successful in the future."
Xue Wei nodded repeatedly.
The two chatted for a while, and Shen Yi suddenly remembered something.
"correct."
He looked at Xue Wei and asked: "Where is the Qianhu Suding person I gave you last time? Did he come just now?"
"coming."
Xue Wei blinked and said, "Just now, Su Qianhu was sitting on the ground, probably in the second row. Mr. Shen, you didn't see it."
Shen Yi nodded slightly, feeling helpless: "I've been on the road these past few days, and I've been in a trance. I didn't notice. Go find him. I want to see him."
Xue Wei immediately nodded and said: "Yes."
After saying that, General Xue clasped his fists at Shen Yi, turned around and left.
After a while, a tall man came to Shen Yi. After seeing Shen Yi, he was quite excited. He immediately knelt down and lowered his head and said: "My subordinate Su Ding, pay homage to Shen... pay homage to Duke Shen! "
Shen Yi smiled and helped him up, and said, "Don't follow them and yell nonsense."
After signaling him to sit down, Mr. Shen poured him a cup of tea and said with a smile: "I was dazzled just now. I didn't see you sitting down there. That's why I said they were all from the anti-Japanese army. Isn't General Su angry?" "
"How dare you..."
Su Ding was so frightened that he waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Mr. Shen and his brothers traveled to several provinces and killed countless Japanese pirates. My subordinates admire me very much. You said that your subordinates came from the anti-Japanese army. It's too late for my subordinates to be happy..." "
As he said that, he lowered his head slightly and sighed: "To be honest, when I came to your house to ask for an official position, I thought that I would be satisfied if you could arrange for a local health clinic to serve thousands of households. I didn't expect that you would arrange it." Arriving at the coastal capital."
Su Ding lowered his head, his face a little red: "After entering Dusi, I talked with other Qianhu, and then I realized that my military exploits are nothing compared to other Qianhu. I also approached General Xue and asked him to demote his subordinates..."
"alright."
Shen Yi walked up to him and said with a smile: "You were originally promoted to command the general affairs, and I have wronged you by being asked to condescend to thousands of households."
Having said this, Mr. Shen paused and said slowly: "But this time, it is a rare opportunity for you."
"I sent someone to check on you."
Shen Yi said calmly: "The commander of the Mingzhou Guard does not seek advancement. In the past ten years, all the achievements of the Mingzhou Guard in killing Japanese pirates were basically at the hands of General Su."
"You are a very capable person."
"This time we go north to fight against the Northern Qi Dynasty. For you, it's just the place where you can show off your skills."
Su Ding gritted his teeth, lowered his head and said, "I'm afraid that I am incompetent and will ruin Duke Shen's important affairs!"
"No."
Shen Yi smiled and said, "You are more capable than most people in the army."
"Back then, General Ling was a Qianhu member of Linhai Guard. His ability to fight Japanese pirates was far inferior to yours."
"After two days, I will say hello to Xue Wei and ask General Su to be by his side as his deputy."
Mr. Shen said with a smile: "Xue Wei is young and a little impetuous. General Su can follow him and teach him more."
"General Su will make great contributions on the battlefield in the future."
Mr. Shen smiled and said: "Then let Xue Wei follow you and be your student."
It can be said that Mr. Shen is so perfect at painting cakes that he leaves no traces.
Su Ding was so excited that his whole body trembled, and he knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
