my wife is mulan

This kind of tarpaulin is made by soaking coarse cloth in tung oil and then drying it. It is generally used to build tents and store grain and grass during the march. It is also used to cover the luggage during the escort of grain and grass to prevent the luggage from being wet and moldy by rain. Its waterproof effect is still good. Very good.

"Gao Xiu, I have borrowed three thousand fine cavalry from King Yongchang, and plan to launch a surprise attack on Pi Lixian around Yinshi tomorrow. I want you to bring a few people to contact Bai Jinguang in person! If it rains heavily today, the thousandth cavalry team does not have any Rainproof cloth, they are probably already hiding in the camp at this time, I want you to take a few people to contact Bai Jinguang in person, find out their location, understand their situation, and then quickly go to Hongyan Lake to meet me, we will discuss the specifics Raid strategy!"

Gao Xiu agreed: "Obey!"

After a while, Gao Xiu took some dry food and water and rushed into the rain with a few soldiers all wearing oilcloth on their horses.

When two quarters came, all the horses had been divided into tarpaulins and tied with laces on their bodies. Zhao Junsheng led them outside the camp of the Right Guards.

At this time, the 3000 troops of the Right Guard Army had assembled outside the camp, and everyone was wearing oilcloth. The soldiers were very surprised. No one thought of using oilcloth as a raincoat.

In fact, it’s not that no one has thought of it, but the price of this thing is relatively high. Except for the equipment of the middle soldiers, which are supplied by the imperial court, the equipment of the prefectural and county soldiers and the town and garrison troops are all raised by the soldiers themselves. Generally, there is no war, so no one carries rain gear. The ancient rain protection equipment is coir raincoat, which is much cheaper, but it is too big to carry.

Bu Liuguteng ran over on his horse and reported to Zhao Junsheng with his fists clasped: "Zhao Dutong, my right guard army of 3000 troops is ready, I wonder where Dutong plans to take our army?"

"The right guard followed behind the cavalry of my supply battalion, and the whole army rushed to the bank of Hongyan Lake to have dinner at a faster than normal marching speed!"

"Follow the order!"

The rain was getting bigger and bigger, and the rain kept falling from the edge of the helmet onto the tarpaulin. With gusts of wind, everyone's faces were wet from the rain.

Zhao Junsheng waved forward with a long gun in his hand: "The whole army is drawn out, let's go!"

Cavalry of the Battalion

Under the leadership of Zhao Junsheng, Bu Liuguqi followed with three thousand fine cavalry from the right guard. The soldiers and horses of the army accelerated twice along the way, changing horses once in the middle, and finally arrived before the sky completely darkened. In the camp by the Hongyan Lake.

Gao Xu, Cao Jiao, Pei Jin and others greeted them.

Zhao Junsheng asked Pei Jin loudly: "Are there any extra camps in the army?"

Pei Jin replied: "There are more than [-] tops for spare!"

"Cao Jiao, hurry up and mobilize the soldiers to set up all these tents for our cavalry soldiers to rest and shelter from the rain! Pei Jin, hurry up and get the cooks to light a fire and cook!"

"As ordered!"

Zhao Junsheng gave Gao Xu another order: "You take General Bu Liugutong and his right guard soldiers to the camp of my cavalry soldiers to take shelter from the rain and rest!"

"Yes, Dutong!" Gao Xu agreed, and shouted to Bu Liugutong: "General, please take your people and follow me, the rain is too heavy, hurry up!"

Bu Liuguzhen clasped his fists at Zhao Junsheng, took his men and horses and followed Gao Xu away.

Zhao Junsheng took the cavalry soldiers and infantry soldiers together to build a tent in the rain.

When he was busy, Bu Liuguqi brought his right guards and generals in tarpaulins to help. Thousands of people worked together, and soon all the tents were set up.

In the tent, Cao Jiao wiped the rain from his face and said to Zhao Junsheng: "Dutong, this Bu Liugutong still knows a little bit about good and bad, and he took the initiative to lead people to help in the rain. If it were another arrogant Xianbei general They don’t care about the life and death of us Han people!”

Zhao Junsheng said with a smile: "No matter who you are, there are always good and bad, and we can't overthrow a boatload of people!"

"Dutong, Captain Gao has brought someone back!" The soldiers walked in quickly to report to Zhao Junsheng.

Zhao Junsheng immediately said: "Let him come in and enjoy the fire!"

Gao Xiu came in, took off the oilcloth on his body, took the towel handed by the soldiers to wipe his face clean, poured another bowl of hot water and said to Zhao Junsheng: "Dutong, we found Bai Jinguang and the others! It’s too big, they didn’t bring a change of clothes, and they didn’t bring rain gear, so they could only hide in the tent to avoid the rain, and the harassment operation could only be temporarily suspended!”

Chapter 375

Zhao Junsheng guessed that the harassing mission of the [-]th cavalry team would definitely be suspended due to the rain. In this season, the body heat will be lost quickly after being exposed to the rain, and the chance of contracting the wind and cold is very high. Once infected with the wind and cold, the soldiers It will inevitably lose its fighting power.

Under such circumstances, there is nothing wrong with Bai Jinguang's order to suspend the raiding mission, but Bai Jinguang did not fully realize the importance of their raiding mission, nor did he realize that once the military order is issued, it is like a mountain collapse and cannot be changed. Even if the entire army is wiped out, the mission must be completed , Failure to complete the task is a crime!

Zhao Junsheng weighed it up, and ordered Gao Xiu: "Let Pei Jin prepare a batch of oilcloth to be carried on horses, and you lead the team to carry it over to the thousandth cavalry team and take over the command. Tonight, it will be like a knife in the sky, and you will give it to me." Let Ben Dutong continue to carry out the harassment mission until Ben Dutong arrives with his troops! You go to eat first, and then set off immediately after Pei Jin has prepared for you after eating!"

"Obey!" Gao Xiu clasped his fists and agreed, then took the oilcloth from the soldiers and put it on his body and walked outside the tent.

"Wait!" Zhao Junsheng got up and called Gao Xiu to stop, walked over to look at him and said, "Let Bai Jinguang come back to report on his duties, and he is not allowed to stay after receiving the order. Ben Dutong is waiting for him here!"

Gao Xiu realized that Bai Jinguang was only afraid this time...

The raindrops made a pattering sound as it fell on the camp tent. Zhao Junsheng saw Gao Xiu disappearing into the rain with his soldiers before he turned around and approached the tent with his hands behind his back, thinking about tonight's battle strategy.

Not long after, Pei Jin personally brought food to Zhao Junsheng with someone. He put the food, wine and meat on the small table, and said, "Dutong, it's raining, drink some wine, and keep warm!"

Zhao Junsheng looked at the wine jar and asked, "How many jars of wine are there in the camp?"

Pei Jin replied: "There are still five hundred altars, and there is no more drinking bowls. The transportation of the luggage is too far away, and the next batch of luggage will have to wait a month before being escorted. Why do you all ask this?"

Zhao Junsheng ordered: "Prepare a hundred altars for Gao Xiu, and let the [-]th cavalry team drink a bowl of wine to relieve the cold when they carry out the harassment mission! In addition, prepare some more wine, and give them to Yin Shiben when he leads the army to set off tomorrow morning." Everyone has a bowl! After we leave, you should immediately take the cooks to cook ginger soup for the soldiers!"

Pei Jin agreed: "Yes, my subordinates will remember it!"

At this time, Li Bao, who was on duty outside the tent, came in and reported loudly: "Dutong, General Bu Liugu is here!"

The reason for the rain was that the voice was too low to be heard clearly, so Zhao Junsheng shouted loudly: "General, please come in!"

Bu Liugu came in and hugged Zhao Junsheng. Zhao Junsheng returned the salute, asking him to sit on the saddle, and extended an invitation: "Zhao is about to eat. If the general doesn't mind the rough food, let's go together!"

Bu Liugu was hungry, so he was not polite: "Thank you!"

Zhao Junsheng immediately ordered Pei Jin to send someone to bring over some wine and meat. He saw two young generals who were about his size standing behind Bu Liuguqi, so he asked, "Who are these two?"

Bu Liugu turned sideways and introduced to Zhao Junsheng, "This is Ba Ba Kang, the first general of the Right Guard Army, the son of Ru Yin Gong and Ting Weiqing Ba Ba Dao Sheng!"

Babakang looks heroic and majestic, completely opposite to his father Baba Daosheng's frailty. After Bu Liugucheng's introduction, he clasped his fists at Zhao Junsheng: "I've seen Zhao Dutong!"

Zhao Junsheng said with a smile: "Brother Ba Ba, you are welcome, you and I are about the same age, so we should be able to get along better. If I need someone in the future, just ask!"

Babakang showed a smile on his face, "Zhao Dutong is straightforward, not as contrived and contrived as other Han people, you friend, I'm sure about Babakang!"

"Zhao is honored!"

Bu Liugutong introduced another young general: "This is Bu Liuguli, the dog. She is not very sensible at a young age and likes to mess around, so I will take me with me to sharpen it, and I ask Zhao Dutong to take care of it!"

"You're welcome, General!" Zhao Junsheng agreed, clasped his fists at Bu Liugu Li and said with a smile, "Brother Li, we are all young people and there is no generation gap, so we should be able to chat. If you want to visit a brothel in the future, you must call me." !"

Bu Liuguli showed embarrassment, and his father Bu Liugu couldn't help laughing and crying, but

Baba resisted but laughed out loud.

At this time, some soldiers brought meals for several people and put them on the short tables in front of them.

Zhao Junsheng greeted: "General, two brothers, come, come, let's chat while eating!"

The three of them clasped their fists and sat down. They were already very hungry, so they all started to move.

After eating half full, Bu Liugu asked, "Zhao Dutong, how do you plan to fight this battle?"
