After the meal, Li Yi went to calculate the data of the spiral diagram. He had forgotten some of the knowledge, so he had to think about it carefully and even flip through the 'books'.
Empress Wang went to feed the baby. The little guy woke up again, but his eyesight was still not good enough, so he felt helpless.
He couldn't walk or turn over, so he had to rely on others to take care of everything.
Other than crying and monosyllabic sounds, he didn't know how to do anything else.
Li Longji didn't have any memorials to approve today, so he left the simple matters to Gao Lishi.
He and Li Chengqi brought twenty Beggar's Chickens to the Ba River Bridge to see the Qianniu Guards.
Their guards and the Winged Knights were in charge of protection. Two hot air balloons floated in the sky, connected by ropes below.
The Winged Knights said that they wanted to get used to the feeling of being at a height of two hundred feet, such as sleeping.
Li Longji thought that they were just enjoying the cool air because the ground was hot. There were no mosquitoes at two hundred feet.
"Your Majesty, King Song." The Qianniu Guards greeted Li Longji and Li Chengqi in a low voice when they saw them.
"Are there many mosquitoes? Is the food okay? "Li Longji entered a shack, looked around, and asked.
The shack was neat and tidy, just like the Winged Knights' tents. There was no mess.
"There are many mosquitoes, but we don't want to block the curtain, which will block the wind. Li Dongzhu by the river said that mosquitoes lay eggs in the water, especially in the grass.
But the Zhuangzi gave us floral water and soap, so the mosquitoes won't bite us after we apply the floral water.
When we're not paying attention, the smell will disperse. It's not bad to put soap water on the bitten area.
There's no problem with the food. How can the Li Family Zhuangzi's food be bad? They even gave us more food to bring back home.
For those whose home is not here, they gave us jerky. Let's see who goes there and bring it back. The meat is not bad, and they also gave us sausages.
If it rains, the Zhuangzi will send dry bedding and take away the wet ones to wash. "
The battalion commander guarding the bridgehead replied, saying that the Zhuangzi treated them very well.
"Is there an outsider spying on us?" Li Longji reached out to touch the bedding. It was indeed dry, even if the riverside was damp.
"In response to Your Majesty's question, yes, we do. We pretend to be passing by and occasionally take a glance before walking past.
We have Li Dongzhu's glass binoculars, so we can hide and watch. Those people don't even know how to change their clothes.
Li Dongzhu gave us a booklet that was specially designed for spies.
One is the hairstyle, the other is the clothes, but most importantly, the shoes. Many spies don't have time to change their shoes. "
The battalion commander smiled as he spoke.
Li Longji also laughed, "Hehe, Brother Yi, you know everything. If you didn't mention it, I wouldn't have thought of changing shoes either."
"It's hot during the day. How can we avoid the heat?" Li Chengqi asked.
"Let's go into the water. Li Zhuangzi gave us a ball made of pig's buttocks to soak in the water.
He even gave her salt and vinegar, saying that there was no need to be anxious if she was bitten by a leech, and that she shouldn't use her hands to slap it.
She put some salt, vinegar, toilet water, and soap water on it, and the leech fell down by itself.
It's really useful. Some of us were worried that the leech would drill into our bodies.
Li Dongzhu said that we can only eat it ourselves or take off all our clothes. It just so happens that the leech can find the right place to go in.
We are all wearing the boxers given by Zhuangzi, so we can't get in. Even if it drill into that … that skin, yes, a section of skin, it's fine.
Dongzhu said that the leech will die by itself. If the dead part of the leech develops pustules in the body, look for him and he will take care of it. "
The battalion commander looked relaxed when he said these words. He was not afraid.
With the Miracle Doctor around, there was nothing to worry about.
"That thing can't drill into the body?" Li Chengqi shuddered. He felt that the leech could drill into the body.
"Dongzhu said that we can only go in under special circumstances. If we go in, we will die. It's said that if the leech is cut into many sections, new leeches will grow out from those sections.
It's fake. We tried it before. We put water in a bowl and cut the leech into two sections. We also cut a few sections, but they didn't grow out. "
The battalion commander explained to Li Chengqi. He learned it from Zhuangzi. He even listened to the farmer's words and tried it himself.
"Mm!" Li Longji nodded.
He then looked at the other tents and instructed, "The combat strength of the Chang 'an guards is deteriorating. The Qianniu Guards on the left and right are mostly used as ceremonial guards."
When the Qianniu Guards heard this, they wanted to defend themselves. However, when they saw the personal bodyguards and the Winged Knights around them, they remained silent.
Li Longji continued, "Of course! The people chosen by the Qianniu Guards are all tall and strong. Most of them are from aristocratic families. Why don't you take this opportunity to train with the Winged Knights? "
Li Longji mentioned that the guards guarding the capital's office are not good at fighting.
The Qianniu Guards are ceremonial guards. When I go out or stand guard in the palace hall, I use you. If it's used in battle, I won't be at ease.
"We'll start training tomorrow," the Battalion Commander said.
They were indeed tall and well-built and had eaten well since they were young.
It was just that the training was too tiring, so he was unwilling to do so. Now that the Winged Knights had appeared, he had no choice but to do so.
The number of soldiers increased to thirty thousand, and good horses were delivered one after another.
Another team was sent to the border between the Tang dynasty and Tubo to escort the caravan. Along the way, the military was training. When they encountered bandits, they were training. When they clashed with Tubo, they were also training.
When this army is fully trained, perhaps the Chang 'an guards will be disbanded.
If he didn't want his Thousand Bull Guards, where would he find a job if they were taken away?
The only ones who could fight better than him were the Left and Right Golden Guards, so even if he wanted to fire them, he wouldn't fire them.
There were also the Left and Right Prison Gate Guards, the Left and Right Leading Guards, the Left and Right Prestige Guards, the Left and Right Wu Guards, the Left and Right Valiant Guards, and the Left and Right Guards.
A part of the Left and Right Imperial Guards were also in Chang 'an, but they were not the Winged Knights.
There were so many people who couldn't fight, so they had to spend money to keep them. Her Majesty didn't seem happy.
When he got off work, he would report to his superiors that his battalion needed to train first. What should they train? Yes, train all kinds of weapons and apply for arrows.
"Don't be afraid. Eat a lot of food. I don't need to say anything. Zhuangzi will make better food for you when he sees that you're training hard."
Li Longji was afraid that they didn't have enough money, so he directly threw it to Zhuangzi.
He believed that Li Yi would adjust the diet for the Thousand Bull Guards when he found that they were training hard.
As for the money spent, it was 10% of the Heavenly World's profit.
After talking, Li Longji and Li Chengqi went back.
"Brother, do you think some of the sixteen guards should be disbanded?" Li Longji asked Li Chengqi.
"There are too many officials in each guard, so they can't be disbanded. It's better to let them train and send the Winged Knights to supervise.
Every ten days, the Winged Knights will summarize the situation. Those who excel will be given good things, such as soap.
Those who don't do well will be named. There will be four people in each guard, and they will talk about it at the court meeting every ten days. "
Li Chengqi had learned it now. General was second rank, general was third rank, general was third rank, general was third rank.
In fact, they didn't care much. Some of his brothers had the title of general.
Usually, they didn't care, but during the court meeting, they would scold you and force you to care. You could even kill people. Otherwise, they would scold you next time.
Reducing food and wages was not allowed. It could easily cause a mutiny.
"Brother, you're right. The sixteen guards of Chang 'an should train. When I have money, I'll give them extra meat."
Li Longji decided to use his own money. The sixteen guards mainly ate food. There were very few dishes and no oil.
Their wages were also food. If some people wanted to drink, they would use food to exchange.
A gold mine was washing sand and refining gold. That was money.
It was better to motivate the soldiers. The better they trained, the more meat they could eat.
He even bought wine for them to drink. A good team of ten would be given two catties of wine.
