Chapter 743: Turn Your Elbow Inward

When the troops arrived at Qingliu Pass, seeing that it was getting late, Xia Xun issued an order: "Set up camp on the spot!"

The three armies immediately took action, setting up camps according to the terrain, setting up tents, digging trenches, posting guards, and setting up stoves and cooking in an orderly manner.

This is how they came along the way. The army naturally did not enter the prefectures and counties, and Xia Xun did not accept the reception of the officials in the prefectures and counties along the way. Like the three armies, they all lived in the camp. This is still the heart of the Ming Dynasty, let alone such an army.

Even with a large army patrolling and camping in the wild, no bandits would dare to rob. However, Xia Xun was serious about it and strictly ordered the three armies to select camps, dig trenches, and arrange camp defenses in accordance with wartime standards. He was meticulous.

The soldiers were ordered to carry a large amount of supplies. They were already exhausted and had to do a lot of useless work. They were quite reluctant at first, but Xia Xun insisted on his opinion. Nasehazhi admired Xia Xun very much and obeyed his instructions.

, he carried out his orders without any compromise. The soldiers and junior generals protested to no avail, so they had no choice but to cheer up and follow Xia Xun's orders.

Xia Xun would also dress up in full attire and patrol the camp defenses with generals such as Sai Hazhi and Jing Feng. If there was any perfunctory situation, the general responsible would be punished and ordered to reorganize. This was done every day. Over time, everyone became accustomed to it and had no choice but to comply.

Do what you are told and don’t dare to be careless again.

Then Xia Xun came up with a new trick. The soldiers marched with heavy loads and set up camp. They were exhausted and finally deployed. After dinner, they entered the camp and had a good sleep. They were snoring like thunder, and they were sleeping soundly. Suddenly,

The sound of killing spread everywhere, causing them to jump up in a hurry, put on their clothes, and pick up their swords and guns. However, it turned out that Xia Xun had sent a general and his direct lineage to pretend to attack the camp.

From then on, such enemy attacks occurred every day. The army that was the last to respond would be fined and banned from eating. As a result, the soldiers gradually developed the habit of wearing clothes and armor and sleeping on pillows. Training in the Beijing Camp

Although it is harder, the soldiers are treated well. Although these 30,000 elite soldiers are all veterans who participated in the Jingnan Campaign, it was a few years ago after all. It has been a long time since I have tried to switch from frugality to luxury.

The feeling of sleeping in a suit of armor was so great that some people found it difficult to fall asleep for a long time at first. But later, everyone got used to it. Even if they were wearing a hard helmet and thick armor, they could lie down on the ground and fall asleep.

After setting out on the road every day, Xia Xun would also gather the generals to discuss whether the camp location was the best yesterday, which route of troops and horses responded best, what tactics were used, whether the tactics of attacking the camp were clever, and whether the tactics of attacking the camp or the defense were

A wise general will be given a credit for their performance, while those who behave particularly badly will naturally be given a demerit.

It was just an exercise, and it was actually recorded in the merit book. Which general dared to be careless at this time? All the generals were as if they had been given a shot of blood. They marched, set up camp, set up defenses, and attacked the camp every day.

The counterattack on the camp was treated as a battle. The soldiers and horses responsible for the attack on the camp were also changed every day. Xia Xun only gave an order: "Today, you are in charge of the attack on the camp!"

As for what tactics the general used and which section of the camp to attack, it was entirely the responsibility of the general himself.

Its ability is constantly improved, filling loopholes, and adjusting tactics. Since each general responsible for attacking the camp has a different fighting style and adopts different tactics, they encounter a variety of various tactics for attacking the camp. These soldiers have never encountered so many in their lives.

I have seen all the tactics of fighting and defending along the way.

Xia Xun gave the order, and the three armies immediately began to set up camp, dig trenches, and set up police posts in an orderly manner. After this period of hard training, they have become extremely skilled and incomparable in doing these things. They had to hurry, there must be someone attacking the camp at night.

Set up the camp defense early, have a full dinner early, and go into the tent to rest early, so you can sleep a little longer!

The generals did not dare to be careless and accompanied the whole process, supervising the soldiers to set up tents and dig trenches, set up traps and set up police posts, and added some of their own new ideas for perfect defense to ensure that their camp deployment was perfect and the success or failure of the attack on the camp.

, but it will be directly recorded in the credit book, and it is related to their future. Who dares not to pay attention?

Xia Xun watched with satisfaction as the officers and soldiers of the three armies performed their duties and worked enthusiastically, and said to Jing Feng: "General Jing, you are responsible for attacking the camp tonight!"

As soon as Jing Feng understood what he was saying, he cupped his fists to Xia Xun and accepted the order. He chuckled twice and left happily.

Last time, he was responsible for attacking the camp, because he only thought it was a drill and didn't take it too seriously. However, he suffered a big loss and was given a demerit. Tonight, it was rare that it was his turn to attack the camp again. He had no idea, so he had to use all his strength.

Get this place back!

Xia Xun looked back at the center of the camp where the princess was driving. The place had been circled, the tall and exquisite tents had been set up, and wisps of smoke were rising from outside the tents. Originally, according to Xia Xun's intention, wherever she went, the princess could

He wanted to stay in a nearby county and then set off with the army the next day. However, Princess Ancheng declined his offer and insisted on staying in the army.

The princess's tent was set up in the center of the camp and she did not participate in the attack and defense. However, the sound of fighting outside had no impact on her. It would inevitably affect her sleep. However, this delicate and elegant little princess actually enjoyed it. Xia Xun

Every time I think about this, I admire her very much. Madam Xu is so good at teaching her daughter. Of course, this is related to the fact that during King Yan's reign, these princes and princesses suffered a lot, but now she is the queen of princesses after all.

, there is no need to receive this treatment at all, which is extremely rare.

In the princess's tent, Her Royal Highness, who was tired from traveling all day, had just finished bathing. The maids fetched water from the nearby river and boiled it. They waited for the princess to bathe and change clothes. She changed into a light shirt. Her hair was still wet after being wiped dry, making it look shiny.

The princess strolled out of the tent.

Xia Xun's camp is tight on the outside and loose on the inside, and the princess' sleeping tent inside has its own royal guards, forming a second warning circle. Foreign ministers and generals are not allowed to step forward without the princess's permission, let alone ordinary soldiers.

Yes, the precautions are very strict.

Princess Ancheng stood on a high slope, looking at the surrounding scenery. The camp had basically been set up, and the tents everywhere looked like mushrooms rising from the ground, bathed in the sunset, far and near.

, there are streaks of smoke floating in the air, which looks very poetic. On the outermost periphery, the defense is continuing. The attack trenches are dug wide and deep, and horses, antlers, thorns and other objects are arranged. Naturally, it will not be so fast.

Princess Ancheng's appearance is not extremely beautiful, at most she is above average and pretty. However, she has a very good figure. She is a seventeen-year-old girl with a tall figure. She is wearing a silver-white Sichuan brocade gown, which outlines her softly.

The graceful and elegant figure, covered with a cloak of spring pictures of cranes and deer, blows slightly with the wind, making this graceful and looming, even more charming.

The chambermaid Xiaohai tiptoed to her side and said respectfully: "Your Highness, it's cold outside the tent. I'd better wait for you to go back to the tent to rest!"

"I'm not that delicate!"

Princess An Cheng said, taking a deep breath of fresh and cool breath, and narrowed her eyes in contentment.

Xiao Hai pouted his lips unhappily and said: "Your Highness, you have such a distinguished status. It's so shameful for this Duke to let the princess stay in the wilderness all day long. Even a little thief can't do it here."

There is one who spends the whole day setting up camp, setting up defenses, attacking the camp, practicing, and showing it to anyone. It is obvious that he is also a sensationalist. Take a look at it, Yinu maid..."

Before Xiao Hai finished speaking, he was glanced at by Princess An Cheng's stern eyes. He was involuntarily stunned and did not dare to continue.

"The reason why I worked so hard to assist my father-in-law is for the sake of my Zhu family! It's to help my father-in-law and my husband's worries! What do you know!"

Xiao Hai said in panic: "Yes, I talk too much, I know it's wrong!"

Princess Ancheng said calmly: "An eunuch who forgets to discuss court officials is another serious crime! I think you don't understand the rules anymore! Kneel down! Palm!"

"Yes, I am guilty!"

Xiao Hai quickly knelt down and slapped himself across the face. Princess An Cheng was right in front of him, so he didn't dare to hold back, and soon his cheeks were red and swollen.

Princess Ancheng snorted coldly and shouted: "Go away! If you make noise in front of me again, you will be severely punished!"

"Yes, yes, thank you for your grace, princess!" Xiaohai quickly kowtowed and ran away crawling on the ground.

"Princess, there is roasted venison in today's dinner. Princess, can you smell it? It smells so good!"

Princess An Cheng's personal maid, Shu Lian, who is thirteen years old, came up to her happily. Princess An Cheng smiled slightly: "Little greedy cat, have you been short of food and drink on weekdays?"

She took two steps forward, then stopped and told Shu Lian: "You are not allowed to drink alcohol in the army. Forget the wine, cut a large plate of roasted venison shanks and send it to Duke Fu!"

"Yes!" Shu Lian knelt down to give a blessing and agreed.

In Xia Xun's Chinese army tent, Xia Xun and Sai Hazhi had just returned from inspecting the three armies. Most of the soldiers and horses in each battalion had already started to eat. They had not yet thought about eating and drinking. After taking off their heavy armor, Xia Xun and Sai Hazhi

After washing hands and face, he sat down in the tent and discussed: "I don't think the training for camp raids should be done so frequently anymore. I just need to do it once every three to five or seven days to keep everyone alert. Next,

Training should be conducted on encountering attacks on the road, ambushing, and hastily engaging the enemy. What do you think, General?"

Xia Xun's army strictly followed wartime rules. There were five levels of light and dark security around the commander's tent. When Shu Lian reached the first level of security with the venison, she was stopped: "Stop! The commander's tent is an important area, and you are not allowed to enter without permission!"

Shu Lian Xiaoyao raised her nose and hummed: "Her Royal Highness the Princess said that the Duke was working hard and asked the maid to bring roasted venison for extra meals."

The guarding captain heard this and said politely: "Thank you for your help, my dear. The Lord is discussing the military plan. Please give the venison to me for presentation."

Shu Lian put the lacquer plate heavily into his hand, turned around and left, pouting and saying: "It's so majestic. The princess gave me meat, but I don't know how to thank you personally..."

The captain smiled and walked back with the lacquer plate in hand. The lacquer plate had a buckle cover and it felt heavy as soon as it fell into his hands. The captain couldn't help but clicked his tongue and said, "What a big piece of venison!" He sniffed again.

Sniffing, there was a faintly tempting aroma of meat coming out, and I couldn't help but salivate: "It's a pity that the Duke and the General will eat more. If they were divided among us, I'm afraid it wouldn't be enough for each of us, and Her Royal Highness the Princess wouldn't reward her with more."

.”

Even if he wants to go to the commander's tent, he has to check his waist badge all the way down. Although these guards are all familiar with each other, they are also meticulous in this regard, but when they get to the several camps around the commander's tent, there are more than an acre of land.

The place was already in the inner circle, so there was no warning. The captain carried the food tray to the commander's tent. When he asked, the Duke was indeed discussing something in the tent. He was afraid that the roasted venison would get cold due to the cold weather, so he put the food tray away.

In the waiting tent next to it, I went to the kitchen to talk to Siren and Jeanne who were busy.

Siren and Jeanne were trained since childhood to learn the ability to serve noble people. This ability to please noble people is naturally not limited to the skills in bed. They are also extremely skilled in playing music, chess, calligraphy, painting, singing, dancing, musical instruments, and even cooking skills.

As soon as he set out on the road, Xia Xun refused Princess An Cheng's kindness and wanted to share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers without using her cook. But after all, he is the commander-in-chief of the three armies and holds the title of Duke. How can he really have the same diet as ordinary soldiers?

The generals under his command also have different levels of small stoves and extra meals depending on their rank. Therefore, his diet is still very rich compared to that of the soldiers. However, no matter how good the ingredients are, if he is an average cook, he can only eat them. How can he cook them?

Delicious dishes with excellent flavours.

Xilin and Jeanne only accompanied Xia Xun to eat a meal cooked by the military cook, and then they immediately replaced him. From then on, the two of them served the Duke's food. The same simple ingredients were cooked by their skillful hands and tasted great.

It's a big difference. Sehazhi is now addicted to it. He accompanies Xia Xun every day after patrolling the three armies, and doesn't go back to his sleeping quarters at all. He will definitely chase Xia Xun's handsome tent like a follower.

This Sehazhi was a man with a big belly. When he first came back, Siren and Jeanne watched as the food they had carefully prepared for their master was eaten up by this foodie, as if his master was not full yet. It was really

I was angry and anxious. But Sehazhi was a shameless person and didn't care at all about the supercilious look from the two of them. He just accepted their beauty as a wink.

The two girls were so angry and funny that they had no choice but to increase the amount of food they cooked every day. The original meal they prepared for one person now had to prepare enough for five people, so that they could hear their master burp with satisfaction.

The two of them were busy in the kitchen, and the school captain came over to explain to them that although the two girls were good at craftsmanship, it was difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, and she had few ingredients at hand. I heard that Her Royal Highness the Princess had given the Duke some venison for extra meals.

, the two girls were very happy. When they had prepared the meal, packed the food boxes, and sent them to the handsome tent, they went to the accompanying tent next to them and took out the plate of venison.

Xilin bent down and picked up the plate of venison, then curled her lips and said, "Why is it so light? This princess is so stingy!"

When she opened the lid and took a look, she saw that the golden roasted venison inside was cut into slices and neatly packed, but there was really a little missing. Jeanne said worriedly: "The princess only gave me so much venison.

If that foodie Sehazhi sees it, will our master still be able to eat it? Don’t serve it to the top, save it for your late night snack!"

Xilin's enchanting willow eyebrows raised slightly, and she smiled charmingly: "What a good idea! Leave it here for now, wait until the foodie leaves!"
