"What, you said it's going to snow the day after tomorrow?" Huangfusong looked at Shen Pei with a ghostly expression and said, "Didn't you say it won't snow until September? Why is it a month early?"
"It was informed to me by someone who specializes in astronomical studies. I also asked the Slavs. After a group discussion, they said that the temperature is going to change suddenly, and it will freeze and snow in a very short period of time."
The judge said helplessly, "Here in Eastern Europe, we haven't prepared hydrological and celestial information. If we can inform you three or four days in advance, our people are already very capable."
"Are you sure it will snow the day after tomorrow?" Huangfusong touched his chin and said after learning the accurate news. The temperature here is still in late autumn. If it is to be said that it is cold, it is not cold, but the sudden drop in temperature does not mean that he
I also encountered this before when I was in Liangzhou.
"It's basically certain, it should be heavy snow." Shen Pei nodded, "We have experts here who study hydrology and climate, and they have always been relatively accurate."
In fact, people in the Han Dynasty have always studied this kind of thing, and the Han Dynasty liked to write down when it rained heavily, when the water rose, and when the climate changed drastically.
Relying on hundreds of years of data, summing up experience, and then extracting the laws, turn it into your own wisdom. Of course, this refers to the Central Plains.
The Slavs in Eastern Europe don't have this habit at all. They don't even have writing, and the natural materials are all nonsense. Fortunately, there are traces of celestial changes. In addition, they have been studying for the past two years, so they have some experience.
After observing the situation with the Slavs, the climate researcher finally came to inform the judge that it was going to snow.
"It's snowing heavily." After Huangfu Song thought for a moment, he walked around the camp with some hesitation, and finally stopped, "When will our reinforcements come?"
"It will arrive tomorrow afternoon." Shen Pei replied quickly.
"Let people rearrange the camp, solve a series of problems such as water supply, make preparations for winter operations, and distribute cold-proof clothes. Also, the quality of the cold-proof clothes produced by your Yuan family is really not good. Send a letter to Chen Zichuan and come back in the next five days.
Ten cars of down jackets." Huangfusong quickly made a decision. Snowing at this point is not good, but they are prepared, which does not mean that Rome is prepared.
"Okay." The judge looked at Huangfu Song speechlessly. At this time, he said that their Yuan family's cold-proof clothes were not good. His cold-proof clothes were also sweaters. It was true that they were not as good as down jackets, but they were better than the previous linen clothes.
There are too many.
"Prepare double boots for the soldiers. We didn't expect it to snow. Maybe the Romans didn't study the weather in Eastern Europe thoroughly. They would be absolutely miserable on the day it snowed. They killed him while he was sick.
, burned all his family's food and grass, and forced them to go back to Rome!" Huangfu Song was also a ruthless man. He promised to exercise restraint, but when he seized the opportunity, he would definitely take the initiative.
"I've prepared a lot of tung oil and stuff." Shen Pei's eyes didn't waver when he heard this. This guy hurried over to find Huangfu Song when he heard it was snowing. In fact, he meant the same thing. This kind of great opportunity can
Give up? No, if caught, he will be cut to death immediately!
"Not bad." Huangfusong looked at the judges. He actually admired these staff officers who didn't talk much and only worked. They were cruel enough. Even though he knew that he and Rome would not be able to win by force, as long as he was arrested,
Given the opportunity, they don't mind giving each other a hard blow.
Survive by submissiveness and humiliation? Are you kidding? The nation that has relied on this for thousands of years is ruined. Whoever survives does not rely on struggle to make the opponent feel that they are really desperate.
Because of the unsafe situation, I had to give up.
"I'm going to prepare. Starting from tomorrow, the camp will start to supply hot water. I burned a lot of charcoal in the summer." Shen Pei nodded. He was becoming more and more satisfied with Huangfu Song. These old guys will not look forward or backward at all.
This is the quality of a great general on the battlefield.
"A lot of charcoal?" Huangfu Song looked at Shen Pei strangely.
"What's wrong?" Shen Pei looked at Huangfu Song.
"Where?" Huangfu Song asked, and then he looked at Shen Pei with a pale face as if he had suddenly realized something, "Isn't it under our camp?"
"Of course it's buried under our camp." Shen Pei said matter-of-factly.
"..." Huangfu Song's face turned a little blue. He knew what Shen Pei meant. If Rome dared to attack its own camp, it would be fine if it couldn't be defeated. If it was defeated, Shen Pei would fight to the death and the camp would turn into a sea of flames.
, see who dies more.
"Isn't this a natural thing?" Shen Pei said very calmly, "I have figured it out over the years, even if I can't beat the other party, I won't make it easy for the other party. If you beat me? I was not ruthless enough before!
"
Huangfusong looked at Shen Pei's face with a ferocious expression and said nothing. This kind of person would really fight to the death if pressed.
"Go and dig out the charcoal for me, and don't bother me." Huangfu Song said angrily, "As long as I'm here, even the Roman group, unless Perennis comes in person, no one can reach the camp and cause trouble.
What, you’re preventing people from having a good night’s sleep.”
Huangfusong's order was quickly passed on, and each legion received winter clothes from the logistics department that day. Sweaters from the Yuan family and down jackets from Chen Xifa, both of which had far greater warmth than the previous linen clothes, but this
I'm afraid of contrasting things.
It is obvious that down jackets surpass sweaters in terms of warmth retention capabilities.
"It's a pity that Chen Zichuan has a good thing, but he can't get it. Hey, you Yuan family are really good at it." Huangfu Song said to the judge with sweat on his forehead, wrapped in a down jacket, and heating the brazier.
"..." Shen Pei said that he really didn't want to talk to Huangfu Song about this issue. That's right now. A few years ago, even the elite army didn't have such a thing.
But thinking about this, the judge couldn't help but look at Huangfu Song. Is this old guy just making trouble? He said before that these good equipment were making the soldiers weaker, but he was not polite at all when distributing supplies.
Take as much as you have.
"Don't look at me like that. I just said that the equipment is so good that the soldiers can't get the same intensity of experience as before. But it's not that I don't like the equipment. On the contrary, I agree with Chen Zichuan. You are the only one who can survive among a hundred people."
There are ten veterans of hundreds of battles, and there are ninety veterans of hundreds of battles among my hundred people. What's the use of your veterans being strong?" Huangfu Song curled his lips and said.
Although Chen Xi said jump, Chen Xi's words are often very reasonable. In the past, there was no way to rely on human life. It seemed worthwhile before to produce 10,000 top elites from 100,000 people. The combat power of these 10,000 people could not be achieved.
Fortunately, it is more than 100,000, and the cost of raising troops is also lower than 100,000.
It can be said that everyone is happy, but the problem is that the 90,000 people who died are 90,000 families.
However, from the perspective of Huangfusong and others, and considering the national finances, it is worth it.
If you switch to Chen Xi, there is no need to consider it. Huangfu Song's method is indeed elite, but how much stronger can it be? Can it defeat three veterans of this era? With the same weapons and equipment, it may still be possible.
If you really can't, it's not a big problem to fight two.
But the next-level elites created by Chen Xi's method are several times more than before. Huangfu Song's talk about the difference in the quality of soldiers is just nonsense. If we really want to go back to the past, Huangfu Song will probably have to be what he once said.
That’s it—I wish Chen Zichuan had been born twenty years earlier.
People are cheap, they just miss it occasionally. If we really have the supplies we have now, then we would use our lives to train soldiers if we are mentally ill!
The judge was speechless. He found that Huangfu Song was also a master at double standards.
"But your logistics is really not good. When I asked Chen Zichuan for supplies in the past, at first Chen Zichuan would have people directly ship them more than ten times. Later, maybe because he thought it was too troublesome, he threw me a supply item and asked me to check it myself.
." Huangfu Song said with a sigh.
"I'm sorry, our Yuan family is just like this." Shen Pei's expression was expressionless, and he admitted his mistake without any sincerity. In fact, what Shen Pei wanted to say was, Huangfu Song, please speak in human terms. Chen Xi is not human at all.
Way.
"It's not your Yuan family's food, but the contrast is too obvious." Huangfu Song said with some regret, then he took a handful of pine nuts, broke them open and started eating.
Shen Pei looked at Huangfu Song quite speechlessly, eating their food, using their food, and mocking them every day with Chen Zichuan. Although what he said was true, he was very unhappy.
"These pine nuts are good." Huangfusong said with satisfaction.
"There are a lot of these things. I'll buy you two cars later." Shen Pei said casually. The other things are not comparable to Chen Xi's, but they still have these things, and there are a lot of them.
"What's going on in Rome now?" Huangfu Song asked while peeling pine nuts.
"The Yue cavalry has discovered the opponent's army along the Don River. The number is very large, probably more than ours, but as you estimated, they will probably arrive tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." Shen Pei said calmly.
"Tsk, this would be a bit troublesome. We can't rush over and burn the boat, and it's not easy to burn." Huangfu Song said casually.
"It's not that we can't give it a try, and the time when the other party arrives is also a good opportunity for us." Shen Pei had a dull expression, and Huangfu Song smiled when he heard this. This guy and what he thought
Quite close.
At the same moment, Papinian stood on the bow of the ship, feeling the north wind and a slight chill. He looked up at the sky and clearly saw the dull clouds in the north. He couldn't help but have some bad thoughts in his mind. However, just as Huangfu Song guessed
Like that, they didn’t even understand the celestial phenomena in Eastern Europe. How could Rome have such time!
Therefore, after repeated observations, Pabinian did not expect that it would snow soon. He just felt that the climate in Eastern Europe was really puzzling...
