The bonfire was still burning, and the flickering flames gave people a visual impression of spatial distortion.
After a light snowfall, no more moths danced around the bonfire.
Tents were set up, most of them made of leather, a mess of leather.
The horses and livestock were fenced in with simple fences.
The horses could easily jump out of the fences, or even break through them, but they didn't.
The grass was yellow and dry. It had been chopped into sections.
The roof of the temporary stable and the sheds of the sheep pen became their warm shelter.
It was easy to go out, but difficult to survive. They understood.
After eating, the horses lay down on the grass to sleep, lying on their sides.
Some of the sheep lay down, while others huddled together for warmth.
It was surrounded by a small fence made of canvas, not a large fence.
The fences could block the wind from the ground to the top of the fences, and the height of the sheep could completely block it. The horses couldn't, so lying down was the most suitable.
Horses would only lie down to sleep when they thought it was absolutely safe, or when they were absolutely tired, sick, or giving birth to a pony.
There were more than 100,000 people in the camp, and the bonfire was just dry grass. There were no large branches, but there were small perennial berry trees and brambles that didn't grow tall.
Everyone was roasting meat over the bonfire. There were game and sheep.
The meat was sliced off and dipped in salt and pepper. There was no pepper, only pepper powder, refined salt, and cumin.
They were very satisfied with the 60,000 or so people who ate good stuff.
There was a group of people sitting around a small bonfire next to a large bonfire.
"Jiang Gang, your wine is delicious." One person took a sip of the 62-degree distilled wine and grinned from the spiciness. He praised, "My whole body feels hot after drinking it."
"Commander Fu Difu, Dongzhu said that the alcohol in the wine can't provide direct heat. It feels hot because the metabolism is fast.
Eating at this time can replenish the body's heat while the metabolism is fast, which is to speed up the absorption. Do you understand … Oh, it's hot! "
Jiang Gang, the leader of the Feathered Forest Flying Cavalry, wanted to explain to the other party. As he spoke, he gave up.
Fine, if you say it's hot, then it's hot.
They were the dozens of telegram teams and the 40,000 Celestial Soldiers who were returning in rotation. They brought the Bonigan Clan led by Fu Difu back to the Celestial Soldiers.
Fu Difu actually had a West River Regional Advisor Deputy Red Water Army Commander, who should have gone to West River.
However, Hexi Jiedushi's side had a lot of people, the people who withdrew from Tubo were replenished, so that Guli Gan people could no longer serve as the first line of defense.
Therefore, Guligan's tribe, which was supposed to head west, circled around to avoid the Later Turks and turned southeast.
They had brought a large number of horses and sheep, but no cattle, which were of no use to them.
During this period, Jiang Gang used his own ability to take over command, and the Celestial Army and a portion of the Hengye Army acknowledged him.
This included the current Fu Difu. He admired Jiang Gang.
Jiang Gang commanded more than a hundred thousand men in an orderly manner, passing messages back and forth through telegrams and scouts.
"I understand. The wine isn't hot. What's hot is the heat from eating. It's like the wind. The wind only blows. When it's hot, it's hot. When it's cold, it's cold."
Fu Diji actually understood. How smart.
Jiang Gang immediately gave him a big thumbs up. Awesome. It was easy to talk to such a person.
"Jiang Gang, how did you manage to mobilize over a hundred thousand people so easily? I don't think they're all telegrams. "
As the leader of a tribe, Fu Diji's ability was there.
"Yes, telegrams are just to make things more convenient for me. It's normal for scouts to pass messages. When I was fighting on the Li Family Zhuangzi sand table, it was always a million soldiers moving around a large area.
In addition, there were also a hundred men team hiding in a small area, ambushing, looking for opportunities, protecting themselves, destroying the enemy, and using everything that could be used. "
Jiang Gang acknowledged Fu Diji once again. You could tell?
He and his brothers were fighting on the Zhuangzi sand table, just like the strategy games in Li Yi's E-Sports.
Each person had a large sand table in front of them, and they couldn't see each other. There was another large sand table with a group of referees.
There were people passing messages back and forth. When there were people on your side on the sand table, an area would be marked out.
When your people were 'annihilated', all the signs would be taken away.
The operation of a million soldiers would look for the enemy and set up an ambush.
Sometimes, a victory or defeat would be because a certain hundred-man team happened to ambush the enemy's main camp.
When the enemy's main camp was exposed, they would immediately mobilize their own troops to attack.
This type of sand table was strategic command. There were also smaller ones, such as the hundred-man team, to survive and complete the mission.
After each large sand table exercise, some people would be selected and promoted. At that time, they would be the commander of a certain thousand-man team.
Thousands of people participated in the largest sand table battle drill.
The sand table exercise was fake, but the training of thinking patterns was real.
In a normal battle, you could lead tens of thousands of soldiers and still not see the enemy's headquarters.
Similarly, scouts would be sent to look for the enemy's people, scout against scout, battlefield concealment, and so on.
In the end, it would be implemented on maps. The maps of the Tang dynasty were amazing. Everyone knew how to draw maps.
He could command a million soldiers in battle, even if he wasn't as good as some of his colleagues.
He could also use hundred-man team tactics, even if he still couldn't compare to his brothers.
Like Qin Li, he was always at a disadvantage. In the end, he simply focused on defense, but it didn't mean that he didn't know how to attack.
All the Winged Knights had to learn, whether they had good grades or not.
Jiang Gang's grades were the best among these people, so he was the commander.
The other Winged Knights cooperated with him. The team of more than 100,000 people was operating, and it stretched for dozens of miles.
He used his extraordinary performance under special circumstances to win the praise and recognition of others.
"Our Tang dynasty is getting more and more powerful!" Fu Difu sighed and said "our".
He felt that he didn't lose out. He looked at the canvas fence that was brought by the Tang dynasty's army.
In a few days, when they arrived at the Celestial Army, they had agreed to arrange accommodations and ensure that no one would freeze to death in winter.
Not freezing his clansmen to death in winter was his greatest pursuit. He had dreamed about it before, but when he woke up, he found that dozens of his clansmen had died.
At this moment, the flame was swaying, and he also suspected that he was in a dream.
How could that telegram contact each other from so far away? Why did this wine make him feel warm all over after drinking it?
"The Celestial Army is busy building houses with kang beds. When we get there, we'll learn how to make coal. Try to use warm water, or else our hands won't bend from the cold. "
Jiang Gang stretched out his hands and gestured.
"It's not cold now, but it's colder than fishing in the water in winter."
Fu Difu's clansmen were dry. How could they care about whether their hands were cold in winter?
How cold were they? When the horse peed, they put their hands there to keep warm.
If there was no snow, the surroundings were dry, and they were thirsty, they would just drink the horse's pee with both hands.
"Yes, it's mainly because I've been living in Chang 'an for a while, so it's okay to forget about everyone."
Jiang Gang smiled. That was good. It was unlike a small number of rich people in Chang 'an who couldn't bear hardships.
If he counted on those people, the Tang dynasty would be doomed. Look at Dongzhu. He could even put his hands into cow dung to keep warm. When he was playing with everyone, he also drank human pee.
He didn't need to do that. Would the Li Family Zhuangzi drink less water?
