Li Qingqing and a group of shadow guards returned to the main city before dawn the next day.

The main reason was that there were too many prey to fit in the carriage, so the shadow guards had to carry them on their shoulders as they paraded through the town, which was a bit conspicuous.

Li Qingqing couldn't openly throw the prey hunted by the shadow guards into the space.

So I chose to come back at this time.

After Li Qingqing came back, she ordered the shadow guard to deliver the prey to the barracks logistics department, and she followed.

While delivering the goods with Shadow Guard, she secretly took out the ingredients she had collected earlier from the space and threw them in the corner of the kitchen.

After thinking about it, she went to find Deputy General Chi again, intending to tell him how to deal with the wild yam.

Wild yam grows in the mountains and no one recognizes it, let alone eats it as food.

Moreover, the juice of wild yam may cause an allergic reaction if it gets on your hands. She was worried that Vice General Chi would mistakenly think that this was a poisonous food and throw it away.

However, Li Qingqing arrived at an inopportune time. It was not the time to cook food, and Deputy General Chi and the soldiers in charge of cooking were not there.

There were only two soldiers on duty in the logistics department. After asking, I learned that Lieutenant General Chi and his men were usually at the training ground at this time.

Li Qingqing then realized that all guards had to undergo daily training.

No wonder Vice Admiral Chi complained about her not participating in training!

Although Deputy General Chi and his men were mainly responsible for logistics, there were always enemy troops attacking the city at the border.

For the 4,800 soldiers defending the city, each one of them is an important force in defending the city.

If you don't strengthen your training on a daily basis, you will inevitably become a pile of ashes when fighting the enemy.

Li Qingqing didn't join the army seriously and didn't think about training at all.

She came to the barracks mainly to secretly make black fireballs and openly guide the construction of brick kilns.

According to the original agreement, as long as she completed these two tasks, she could return to Lihua Village and continue her peaceful life.

But the plans couldn't keep up with the changes.

The earthen city wall is severely damaged, and simply relying on repairs is not a fundamental solution to the problem.

On the first day at the border, Li Feng explained to her that when the enemy attacked the city, they would not attack here and there, but would concentrate their firepower on a single earthen wall.

Once the city wall was breached, they all rushed in. The soldiers defending the city had no chance to fill the hole temporarily. They could only kill the enemy and then make repairs after the battle.

That's why Li Qingqing came up with the idea of ​​rebuilding a solid blue brick city wall.

This is a permanent solution!

We can't let the soldiers be exhausted from fighting day and night while also busy running around to repair things.

Moreover, the court's semi-hands-off attitude towards the border forced her to go all out and find ways to build the border.

Otherwise, once the border city is breached, the enemy army will march straight in along the official road...

She had no control over whether they went to other nearby counties or towns, but if they went to Qiu Shui Town, Qiu Shui Town would be in danger within three days!

The blue brick and tile house that she had lived in for only a few days and the leisurely pastoral life that she had not yet enjoyed could not be gone just like that.

Therefore, since she arrived at the border, she has been busy all the time and has never entered the training ground once.

Since we are already at the barracks today, why not go and take a look?

Li Qingqing's heart moved. After asking for directions, she simply walked to the training ground alone.

The training ground was located in the center of the barracks. Li Qingqing had just walked nearby when she heard the beating of war drums and the blast of trumpets, as if they were conducting a formation drill.

The sound of the drums seemed to stir up an indescribable passion deep in people's hearts.

This made her involuntarily stride towards the training ground.

There were soldiers guarding the entrance, and they only let Li Qingqing in after she showed her token.

After Li Qingqing came in, she looked around and saw that the training ground was vast and the soldiers were arranged in different square formations in an orderly manner according to their respective arms.

The deputy generals stood at the front of their respective phalanxes, following Li Feng's instructions and constantly adjusting their formations.

Li Qingqing casually glanced around the training ground and saw rows of stone houses built along the surrounding borders.

Several soldiers were making crossbow arrows outside a house, and another group of soldiers were queuing up in the stable to lead horses.

Li Qingqing didn't want to affect them, so she stood aside and watched from a distance.

She turned her gaze towards the soldiers on the training ground, and saw three phalanxes lined up in the front.

She immediately saw Deputy General Chi and his phalanx, located at the front right.

The soldiers in the three phalanxes were all wearing armor, holding shields in their left hands and long spears in their right hands.

When Li Qingqing saw their appearance, she felt extremely familiar, and a word flashed through her mind, "infantry"!

No wonder Li Feng is not afraid of enemy attacks, these infantrymen are fully armed to the teeth!

Their equipment looks pretty good, so I guess their defense must be quite strong.

At this moment, with the sound of drums, the infantry phalanx in the middle began to march horizontally, forming a long line.

The soldiers on the left and right sides of the formation walked diagonally forward at the same time, with the soldiers in the middle line as the center, and divided into left and right wings.

From the direction where Li Qingqing was, it looked like a formation that quickly spread its wings, trying to surround and devour the enemy.

Li Qingqing watched quietly, but a voice deep in her heart reminded her that the formation had not yet been completed.

Sure enough, immediately afterwards, drum commands were heard from behind.

The second row of squares also began to move quickly.

They were seen holding crossbows and moving in the same manner as the first row of infantry. They moved quickly and soon stood behind the infantry.

Li Qingqing stood aside and watched carefully, she thought to herself,

The first layer uses long spears to resist the enemy cavalry, and the second layer of archers hide behind shields and shoot arrows at the enemy.

So, could the third row be cavalry guarding the formation?

As if to verify her idea, two columns of cavalry suddenly moved.

Holding spears or swords, they rode on horseback and rushed to the left and right wings, stationing at the wingtips on both sides of the wings.

The three layers of formation were carried out quickly at almost the same time, and in a short while, they formed a formation that could attack or defend.

Li Qingqing looked at the formation that suddenly formed from afar. For some reason, a strong sense of familiarity suddenly surged in her heart.

It was like one day she went to a place she had never been to before, but that place seemed familiar, as if she had been there before.

This feeling is both familiar and unfamiliar.

Li Qingqing was a little confused, but no matter how hard she tried to recall, she could not remember where she had seen it and why she was familiar with this formation?

The drums continued to beat and the horns blew on the training ground.

This is the order to attack.

Li Qingqing was a little dazed. She stared blankly at the soldiers conducting offensive exercises.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the stables at the training ground.

Perhaps startled by the sound of war drums, a wild horse broke free from its reins and ran out, causing chaos around the stable.

The fierce horse avoided crowded places and rushed straight towards Li Qingqing.

Li Qingqing was still in a daze until someone shouted:

"Liqing, get out of the way!"

Only then did she realize that the wild horse was about to rush towards her.
