Chapter 1499: Training in the winter and training in the summer: the elite of the army (please subscribe and vote)
Li Shimin felt a little uncomfortable. Seeing this Cheng Sanlang who was so considerate that he felt uncomfortable all over, he always felt that this kid had evil intentions, but there was no evidence.
But Li Shimin could only force out a trace of smile without reaching out to hit the smiling person.
"I'm not that delicate. Okay, hurry up and get on the horse. By the way, Cheng Sanlang, it's your idea to go out in the cold weather, right?"
After hearing Li Shimin's question, Cheng Chubi shook his head rapidly without even thinking about it.
"How could it be my idea? I'm not the leader of the army."
Behind him, there was a mute sound like air leaking. Without even thinking about it, it must be the promiscuous prince Li Ke who faced the young lady and had amnesia due to a serious brain injury and could not remember her name.
Li Ji's eyelids twitched wildly. Looking at Cheng Sanlang who was so quick to shirk responsibility, he had the urge to kick him.
Li Shimin next to him also had a dark face and had the same idea as Li Ji.
"...Cheng Sanlang, you'd better be more honest with me."
"Yes, yes, my nephew is telling the truth. After all, my nephew is only responsible for compiling military books and training troops, that is, leading Fang Jun at the beginning."
"After that, he was completely responsible for the operation. Therefore, Fang Jun must have felt that practicing in the summer is three days and practicing in the winter is three days."
"It can further train the soldiers' strong will and their understanding of military discipline.
Let them understand that soldiers are not just trash."
"Only brave men with extremely determined and tenacious will can become one of our great warriors of the Tang Dynasty."
"..." Two old Li's and one little Li looked at the talkative Cheng Sanlang in front of them, but what he said was quite reasonable.
I have to say that although Li Shimin disliked Cheng Sanlang during this period, the problem was that his words seemed to have penetrated into his heart and scratched an itch in his heart.
When Cheng Sanlang stopped talking, Li Shimin stroked his long beard and his tone became much gentler without realizing it.
"Is this what you are thinking too?"
"Exactly, when my nephew compiled the military training manual, he was thinking in his heart, what is the purpose of military training?"
"Why, can there be any explanation here?"
Li Shimin couldn't help but become interested, but the cool breeze that came over made the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty sneeze loudly.
Li Ji quickly spoke up.
"Your Majesty, it would be better for us to go to the military camp to see the officers and soldiers of the army first, and then find a place to sit down and talk in detail."
"Well, that's fine. Let's go and see how good Fang Erlang is at training."
#####
When they arrived at the gate of the camp, several Xunjun guards who stood upright saw the incoming person, and the leader of the Xunjun hurriedly rushed forward to salute.
"The last general has met General Li, His Highness King Wu, and Cheng Changshi..."
I have received instructions from His Majesty not to reveal his identity for the time being. After all, I am just here for a quiet inspection today.
So Li Ji just nodded. "When you open the camp door, there is no need to report. We will just go in and watch the brothers' training."
"No!" The little leader of the Yin people agreed. Soon, the camp door opened wide, and the ten Yin army soldiers were lined up on the left and right, standing upright.
Seeing this scene, Li Shimin couldn't help but nodded slightly.
Seeing the look of approval in His Majesty's eyes, Li Ji couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Li Ji had previously submitted a petition asking His Majesty to promote the Code of Conduct compiled by Cheng Sanlang, but the problem was.
Except for Li Ji, everyone who had seen that code of conduct was squatting in the Governor's Mansion of Luzhou.
How can military and state affairs be easily decided without evidence?
So the matter was put on hold, but Li Shimin didn't say anything to death, that is, he would wait until the wolf army arrived and take a look first.
Ever since this animal army arrived in Chang'an, Li Ji has been reporting to him, hoping that His Majesty can come and visit this animal army as soon as possible.
It's a pity that the group returning from Luzhou had just arrived in Chang'an. Well, Li Shimin was not in the mood at all because of the trouble caused by Cheng Sanlang.
To this day, after tasting the delicious bamboo shoots and cured pork chops cooked by my daughter, I feel her attachment to me.
Li Shimin, who felt a little relieved, decided to come over quietly to check on the situation.
After all, he himself is a veteran driver who is very good at civil and martial arts, so he can get past him.
Let's go back and let the important officials of the imperial court come and appreciate it together, and then discuss the military training and drills.
After entering the camp, not far away, Li Shimin's eyes were attracted by the figure standing on the flag stand.
"Hey, isn't that Fang Jun?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, it's that boy." Li Ji took a look and couldn't help showing a hint of relief.
"Hey, it looks like this kid has been standing there for a long time."
Fang Jun stood on the high platform. At this moment, a layer of snow had accumulated on his armor, naturally because he had been standing for a long time.
And similarly, facing him under the high platform, there were two hundred soldiers lined up in a neat queue. Like Fang Jun, they stood motionless in the snow.
If you hadn't seen the white mist coming out of his mouth and nose when he was in position, it would have made people feel like they were made of clay and wood.
A total of three hundred soldiers of the army, accompanied by shouts and shouts, were training in formation.
Not far away, there were two hundred soldiers conducting combat training. They faced dummies made of straw.
In their hands, they all used long poles with the spear tips removed. Accompanied by the sound of whistles, the soldiers of the Xun army who were standing neatly holding spears retreated. The long poles had flat ends, and the whistles sounded again, roaring from their mouths.
The word kill comes out.
At the moment when the word "kill" came out, two hundred long spears came out like dragons and pierced the dummy's body fiercely under the change of their posture.
There are also two hundred soldiers who are practicing the sword and shield array. Every time the whistle blows, the two hundred soldiers will make the same standard movements.
Li Shimin looked at this wolf soldier from Luzhou and couldn't help but think of the previous evaluations of these wolf soldiers by the civil and military officials in Jiannan Dao.
A very typical idiom can completely describe it, that is, the mob.
Although these Hu people are not as tall as the Northerners, they can even be said to be on the short side.
But he has a very aggressive personality and is very bloody, but there is a problem: he does not follow military discipline and rules.
When a large army of Hu people fights, they usually come roaring in and roar away, with no knowledge of the military formations, advance or retreat.
But in front of us is an army composed of tigers. Look at the tiger soldiers standing there standing upright like javelins.
There are also those warrior soldiers who don't look sideways, focusing on their own movements, strength, and the movement of their spears into and out of the dragon.
There are also hundreds of people, but they seem to make only one footsteps...
This made the light approval in Li Shimin's eyes turn into undisguised shock.
