There are more than a thousand people in a large camp, except for the sound of orders, the sound of bamboo whistles, and the sounds accompanying movements.
There was not a trace of noise, that is to say, no one was talking to each other, and no one was laughing and joking.
Moreover, this is the severe winter weather that makes people's hands and feet numb with cold. Looking at the soldiers standing motionless in the snow, they must have been standing for at least two sticks of incense.
But no one made any unnecessary movements, which made Li Shimin couldn't help but look back at Cheng Sanlang.
I can't help but think of what Cheng Sanlang said just now.
Orders and prohibitions are just the basic principles of being a soldier.
Only brave men with extremely determined and tenacious will can become one of our great warriors of the Tang Dynasty.
This is the purpose of compiling this military training manual.
Only those soldiers who were despised by the civil and military forces of Jiannan Province were able to become such a well-disciplined army under this code of conduct.
Li Shimin can be sure that as long as this army is given more life and death training and allows them to experience a few more fierce battles, this thousand-horse army will definitely not lose to the elite soldiers of Guanzhong of the Tang Dynasty.
Li Shimin withdrew his gaze, placed his big hand on the shoulder of Li Ji, who looked excited and quite proud, and said solemnly.
"It seems that I have underestimated these boys and this elite teacher."
Li Ji nodded, but he also looked a little unbelievable.
"The same goes for me. I thought this wolf army was already quite good before, but what I saw today is that its energy and spirit have really increased a lot."
At this time, Fang Jun over there finally noticed the strangeness and couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Ji, Li Bingbu and two good brothers coming.
Dang Ji shouted loudly. "Disband, move freely, pay attention to blood circulation."
Following his orders and the uniform promises, the soldiers of the Qianqiang Army, who originally stood like javelins, began to shake their hands and stamp their feet, and moved their numb limbs.
Fang Jun ran straight over and bowed respectfully to Li Shimin, who had already dismounted.
"Okay, nephew, you don't have to be polite. Well done. I didn't expect that the wolf army you trained was beyond my expectations."
At this moment, Fang Jun only had a silly smile, which made Cheng Sanlang and Li Ke roll their eyes.
Among the trio of Yao Mozi, there is someone who doesn't know how to flatter and speak nicely. It's really a shame for the trio.

Li Shimin asked Fang Jun various questions in a low voice, and Fang Jun answered them honestly.
Training is training, but the anti-freeze protection of the soldiers has also been achieved to the extreme. Thickened felt boots are a good treasure produced by the Liangzhou Branch of the Han and Tang Dynasties Commercial Bank.
Because the nomadic peoples in the vast prairie lack cloth, they have always had a tradition of using wool to make felt hats and felt boots.
Felt boots, in particular, have practical and beautiful features such as cold protection, wear resistance, and comfort.
What the Han and Tang Dynasty trading houses did was to seize every opportunity to make money, find ways to deeply process various raw materials and then exchange them for money.
This kind of felt shoes has now begun to enter the homes of people in the Chang'an border area, although these felt boots seem a bit too thick.
However, its thermal insulation performance is excellent, it can prevent freezing, and the price is not expensive, so it is very popular among the people of Datang.
The imperial court also intended to purchase a large number of felt boots to match the winter clothes and provide them to the soldiers at the border of the Tang Dynasty.
Not long after the meeting, several Xueren generals also rushed over to pay their respects.
"I've met His Highness King Wu, I've met Li Bingbu, and I've met Cheng Changshi."
Cheng Chubi was immediately unhappy when he heard this title. "Hey, hey, hey, you guys, Mr. Cheng is no longer the governor of Luzhou, so don't yell."
When Lu Neng and others heard this, they quickly nodded and bowed and said, "Yes, yes, see you, Master Cheng."
"Pfft..." Li Shimin couldn't maintain his low-key and gentle expression and spit out a dumb fart.
Cheng Chubi's face immediately turned black. God, Cheng Xianchang, believe it or not, I will let you ascend to heaven right now.
Seeing Brother Chu Bi start to bulge his eyes, Li Ke quickly stopped him.
Cheng Chubi could only roll his eyes angrily, forget it, find your way back to deal with these guys later, this is Chang'an, okay?
If my reputation as Cheng Xianchang spreads in Chang'an, haha, wouldn't it make another laughing stock in Chang'an?
Although the Cheng family is not afraid of rumors, it is better to have less to worry about than to have more to worry about.
Soon, I was able to look at the middle-aged heroic bearded man who farted dumbly, and then looked at the King of Wu Li Ke on the side.
Then his eyes fell on the very similar looks of the two of them, and even the size of their beer bellies seemed to be about the same.
"General Fang, this...who is this..."
Li Shimin originally wanted to check the authenticity without revealing his identity.
He saw the generals of the Zizhen people, one by one, wandering between himself and his son Li Ke with suspicious expressions on their faces.
He no longer had any scruples, stroked his long beard, and nodded at the generals.
Zhao Kun on the side took a step forward wisely and shouted cooperatively, "His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is here."
Li Ji first bowed respectfully towards Li Shimin who revealed his identity. "See His Majesty the Emperor..."
After a brief commotion, all the soldiers in the entire camp fell to the ground in unison.
Li Shimin looked at these Liren soldiers who were born in Jisuzhou, Luzhou, and showed a smile that was indifferent yet majestic.
"All officers and men will be exempted from courtesy and remain free..."

The next moment, Cheng Chubi saw Fang Erlang looking like he didn't know what to do next, and finally couldn't help but rush over and speak loudly.
"Your Majesty, Sir, please come to the stage to review the Liejun of the Governor's Palace of Luzhou."
Li Shimin nodded slightly towards Cheng Sanlang. Well, this kid is more clever, but honest kids are also very popular.
Li Shimin patted Fang Jun on the shoulder, put his hands behind his back, strode onto the high platform, and glanced across.
"What are you doing in a daze? Come out with that trick..." Cheng Chubi pushed Fang Jun with his elbow and urged him angrily.
Fang Jun reacted immediately and began to issue orders to the generals of the Xun army.
Soon, with the sound of orders, the officers and soldiers of the Hu army who were originally scattered in the school field for drills quickly gathered around.
In particular, Li Shimin and Li Ji, who were standing on the high platform, could see it most clearly. From the beginning, they looked at the officers and soldiers of the Thousand Lie Army like grains of rice scattered on the ground.
After hearing the order, they began to gather quickly towards the high platform, and it was not the kind of crowded gathering.
Instead, after the soldiers in the first row stood still, the other soldiers quickly stood behind them, and each soldier would stand exactly one step behind the previous soldier, and one step to the left and right.
Li Shimin, who was silently calculating the length of time in his heart, couldn't help but whisper to Li Ji beside him.
"What a powerful training technique. It only takes such a short time to gather troops into formation. If used in wartime, especially when dealing with enemy attacks, the victory or defeat can be determined."
