The naan bread and dried meat were soaked until soft. The old soldiers ate them quickly, but the new soldiers had a hard time swallowing them. After all, there were piles of bones not far away.
There are many war horses in Naichibe, all of them are fine war horses. Although the stables were destroyed just now, many of the war horses that escaped have returned, seeming to be looking for the owner of the corpse.
The various camps of the border army would definitely bring these war horses back to the border, but the wolf-catching army has never had this habit, even if it is only more than half a day's journey from the border.
Not to mention war horses, they don't even know how to pick up supplies. They can carry a lot of supplies, but they are almost useless now. They will only use battle to obtain supplies after going deep into the grassland.
The new soldiers couldn't swallow the food, but they were forced to eat by the old soldiers. They forced it into their mouths and tried to swallow it.
Naichibe is just an appetizer, specially prepared for the new soldiers. It is the first stop after catching wolves and reorganizing the army. Next, it is the real journey into the grassland.
After eating, they rested for a long time, almost an hour. After all, it was just the outskirts of the grassland. After the rest, the warriors set off on their journey again.
Head all the way north to the deepest part of the grassland, where the Golden Wolf King's tent is located.
This time, everyone could no longer gallop. As we went deeper and deeper, we had to march at a faster pace, and we also had to release exploring horses in front and on the periphery.
Chu Qing, who was on horseback, was looking at a map. After two days of marching, everyone was going to destroy a water and grass pasture.
This location is also marked by Alleghenda. There are six to nine tribes near the water grass pasture, and it is conservatively estimated to be about 20,000 people.
No matter how powerful the wolf-catching army is, it is impossible to kill 20,000 people with more than 700 people, so everyone's task is only to destroy the water and grass pastures.
This means that everyone needs to bypass or pass through many tribes. Once exposed, they will face heavy siege. Even if they succeed, they must leave quickly, and they are likely to be chased for several days.
The main way to destroy aquatic pastures is to poison the water source. In the past, the common methods used by wolf catching troops were to use common croton, arsenic, and carrion.
But this time, Cuttlefish sponsored a pill that made you want to vomit when you smell it. There were a total of twenty pills, each pill was about the size of a fingernail.
Originally, Chu Qing wanted to ask Cuiyu to get some more divine arm crossbows before leaving the country, but the time was too tight and only fifty were delivered. Lao Mo was forced to give up the money by the money refunds from Geneva, so he entered the border town and forest.
I got a lot of Duwan and some other messy "little toys".
None of them are educated people, let alone have relevant knowledge in this area. No one knows whether this thing is easy to use, but they all believe in cuttlefish.
Nangong Ping has been studying this stuff a lot recently. He smelled it and found out that it should contain the ingredients of grass black and wolfsbane.
"First poison the water source, then burn the food and grass..."
Chu Qing turned to look at Lin Kui: "At the same time?"
"I don't know. I have never been to this place. I can't say anything without seeing it with my own eyes."
Chu Qing nodded. The map itself was not detailed, and the tribes on the grassland were always changing places. There were indeed too many unknown factors.
On the grassland, pasture and pasture are not the same concept. When approaching the place, only the scout horses with excellent eyesight are sent to re-mark the map, the location of each tribe, the location of the baggage, the direction of the water source, etc. Only after these things are determined can the battle be adjusted.
Plan, including escape route after the event is completed, etc.
In addition, you must march at night because you are not easily exposed. Even if you are exposed, you can escape quickly. Moreover, there are few herdsmen wandering on the grassland at night. During the day, the marching speed is very slow. If you encounter them, it will be more advantageous.
The terrain will also be repaired and rested.
Putting away the map, Chu Qing lay on the horse, feeling a little annoyed.
He felt that he might have thought wrong.
Originally, he thought he would be "handsome".
It comes without a trace and goes without a trace, like lightning or the breeze.
Like a ghost, it appeared from nowhere in the enemy's rear area, shuttled across the battlefield, killed people, set fires, looted, and made achievements with blood and sweat, just like Rambo.
But in fact, if you hurry, hurry, and hurry again, when you are almost there, sneak over, throw a torch, drop a bag of poison, and then... run away, like a thief, with a group of enemies chasing behind you, wailing.
Barking randomly, he was chased like a dog.
Chu Qing, who was lying on the horse, was very depressed.
Either he yearned for blood and fire, or he suddenly realized a truth.
Legends, legends, word of mouth, including later film and television works, will lead people into a misunderstanding, that is, there is no "life".
Let's talk about what Lin Kui is talking about now. He mentioned that when he joined the army, he came out of seclusion and had an army of 120,000.
The new recruits' eyes were attracted.
My dear, a 120,000-strong army cannot be like a forest of swords and spears, covering the sky and the sun. Wherever it goes, not a single blade of grass will grow.
Oh, no, Lin Kui didn't talk about this, he was talking about "reality".
It is said that when 120,000 troops went to the grassland, the most disturbing thing was going to the toilet.
After entering the grassland, the general ordered that a dry toilet must be dug in sixty steps. It happened to be summer at that time. Oh my gosh, I don't even want to write.
Chu Qing didn't dare to think about that scene anymore.
Yes, 120,000 troops. When I mention this number, the first thought that comes to my mind is definitely a thrilling one.
But in fact, just the fact that 120,000 people use the toilet is... very realistic.
In these days, there were no flush toilets. Once you used it... you just used it. Everyone should eat, drink, and sleep. There was no way that the soldiers would have to run several kilometers away to go to the toilet.
Even if it is buried, it is not buried at all. If you bury it again and again, don't you still turn over the two pieces of soil?
"Shut up now."
Seeing Lin Kui still starting to tell the details, Chu Qing cursed: "Don't let this shake the morale of the army."
It did shake the morale of the army a bit, and a group of new soldiers began to feel sick.
Lin Kui chuckled: "They are all interesting stories in the army. If the young master doesn't like to hear them, the general will stop telling them."
"This is a funny story. Why don't you tell it during dinner?"
"Okay, we'll talk about it later when we're about to make dinner."
Lin Kui looked honest and honest. This guy didn't understand good words at all.
Chu Qing sighed: "Brother, please tell me something exciting."
Chu Qing was really bored. He just rode his horse and wandered on the endless grassland, feeling sleepy. Even though he had just finished killing the enemy and saw so many dead bodies, he still only yawned.
"My blood is boiling." Lin Kui's eyes lit up: "Then let's talk about the master."
Chu Qing became excited: "This is possible."
As soon as they heard that it was about General Chu Wensheng, the new soldiers gathered around him.
Let's talk about the past, let alone the sons of the common people, just talk about the sons of these aristocratic families. If they didn't know Chu Wensheng well, they would know that he was a minister of the Ministry of Industry.
But after joining the army and coming to the wolf-catching camp, how could one not know that Chu Wensheng had single-handedly established the wolf-catching army? Especially the sons of common people at the border. In their eyes, Chu Wensheng was basically like the God of War.
Character.
Chu Qing couldn't help but pricked up his ears. Dad, you must be very brave!
