"In about ten days, the geese will fly south."
On the third floor of Drunken Immortal House, Zhangsun Xin and the others were eating. They looked out the window at the clouds in the sky and spoke to one of his aides.
Today was the 29th of July. Early in the morning, Zhangsun Xin brought his aides over to eat and take a look at the construction site of Drunken Immortal House.
In the past few days, he had asked the four aides many questions and received answers one by one.
He regained his confidence and brought his wife over.
The aides' idea was that the wife was the main wife, concubines … concubines were nothing.
After bringing his wife over, he stood upright.
The wife considered the family, while the concubine fought for favor.
Favor couldn't last long, but the family was still there.
Sure enough, after Zhangsun Xin brought his wife to Lantian County, everyone acted according to the rules and wasn't as messy as before.
At the same time, his wife took care of the money he had left from selling jade and buying wood.
She had the craftsmen who made the Thousand Works Step Bed build multi-spindle spinning wheels and find cheap wood to make them.
She would build four frames at once and collect hemp. She would take the lead in spinning and weaving to subsidize the family.
She said that when she was skilled, she would hire local people to teach them how to operate and give them high wages. This was called benefiting the people.
After the 'family' was settled, Zhangsun Xin, who had nothing to do, went to Drunken Immortal House to check on the situation.
He brought his own tea leaves and snacks made by his wife. He only asked for free water from Drunken Immortal House.
When it was time to eat, he went to eat free food. His wife said to be careful.
The workers of Drunken Immortal House didn't care. It was just water! Here.
Zhangsun Xin took a sip of the tea and looked at the construction site. "Digging and filling, won't they work until winter?"
The aide replied with a smile, "Drunken Immortal House is ambitious. The mine is too deep to build an island, so they can only use a floating boat as the land.
When the wind is strong, the boat will shake and people can't get on it. It's a waste of money.
It's better to go to the land next to it, expand the pond, and build another island. When the time comes, the bigger pond can be used to raise fish and plant lotuses. "
The four aides were cousins with the surname Luo. They were called Luo Oucheng, Luo Ouchang, Luo Ouxin, and Luo Oujun.
They had learned a lot and were good at different things.
They didn't pass the imperial exam this year and were preparing to take the exam next year.
Just as they were anxiously looking for connections, the Empress's brother-in-law actually wanted her, so they came over.
The original brother-in-law of the empress's brother-in-law was obviously different.
"Can we destroy it?" Zhangsun Xin, who was still thinking about revenge, looked at the four people expectantly.
The four of them shook their heads at the same time. Luo Ouchang said, "It's normal construction. We can't interfere."
Zhangsun Xin revealed a regretful expression. "If we can dig up gold, this place will be treated as a mine and managed by the imperial court."
"Boss, don't spread any more rumors." Luo Ou Xin glanced at Zhangsun Xin and knew what he was thinking.
"No, I won't. Li Yi is too cruel to those who spread rumors." Zhangsun Xin dispelled the idea.
After drinking a few more mouthfuls of tea, he asked the waiter to refill his water. Guan Xiaotan came over with a small jar in his hand.
"Inspector Zhangsun, my family's Dongzhu sent someone to deliver two catties of beef mince. It must be eaten within three days and cannot be stored for too long."
Guan Xiaotan put the small jar on the table and introduced it.
"It can't be poisoned, right?" Zhangsun Xin was skeptical.
"If my Dongzhu wants to poison someone, wouldn't it be more convenient to poison them with plain water?
The beef mince contains the skin of the thing I picked that day, but it's not very spicy. Inspector Zhangsun will know when you try it. "
After saying this, Guan Xiaotan left. It was up to him to eat it or not. He would throw it away later.
"I'll eat it at noon. I've eaten spicy beef mince in the palace before." Zhangsun Xin said with a smile. His wife had told him this when she came over.
Then he showed an envious expression. "Li Yi has good food to eat every day. I wonder what he'll eat at noon today and what he'll be busy with."
Ba Shui Li Family Zhuangzi.
Li Yi, who Zhangsun Xin was thinking about, was persuading the Winged Knights.
"I see that you all have nothing to do all day. Why don't I take you to play a game? It's very fun. It's not a lie at all."
Li Yi said to the Winged Knights who were looking at him with frightened eyes next to a small hot air balloon.
In the crowd, the first batch of Winged Knights Non-commissioned Officer's face was pale. The people who came later did not seem to be in a good state either.
They had not been played by Li Yi before, but they had been played by the first batch of people who were one level lower.
Even those who were one level lower were tortured to the point of wanting to die, not to mention the game that the seniors had played before.
"Li Dongzhu, let us go. We're very busy right now. We're busy getting used to the hot air balloon." The veteran said with a bitter face.
"It's not the same as last time. This time it's easy and not tiring. I don't want to play like last time either. I'm tired."
Li Yi continued to persuade, his eyes filled with sincerity.
The Non-commissioned Officers shook their heads. They did not want to play. They did not want to play no matter what.
Guo Ziyi could not stand it anymore. He stood up and said, "Li Dongzhu, you say it. What do you want to do? A real man should die. What are you afraid of?"
"Look, look at your official Guo. Li Yi admires this kind of person the most." Li Yi praised Guo Ziyi.
"Say it." Guo Ziyi looked as if he was going to go all out.
"Official Guo, do you know how to calculate?" Li Yi nodded and asked.
"Of course I know. I know how to add, subtract, multiply and divide." Guo Ziyi said confidently.
He was able to become a general, but if he did not know how to calculate, how would he know how many people, how much food, and how much daily consumption?
"Then that's easy. Do you know how to calculate nine chapters?" Li Yi picked up a book.
Guo Ziyi shook his head, "No."
"It's okay if you don't know how to. What we learned … is now a separate book. It's called the Island's Computational Canon.
This is interesting. There's no need to learn sine and cosine, and there's no need to deduce formulas. All you have to do is memorize it.
Once you're familiar with the nine methods, you can calculate different heights and depths, and measure them in different places.
Along with binoculars, you can measure whatever you want in the future. "
Li Yi took out the Island's Computational Canon. It was available now, but most people did not learn it.
One reason was that it was difficult to learn. The other reason was that they did not even know how to write, how could they learn it?
When the Winged Knights heard about arithmetic, their heads began to buzz. I'm a soldier, why do I have to learn this?
"Li Dongzhu, why do you want to learn it?" The old soldier asked again.
"Of course it's to fight. The right time, the right place, and the right people. The right time can depend on the heaven, but the right place needs to be measured.
Once you have mastered this, I will teach you how to draw maps by hand using the method of drawing maps.
I'll provide you with paper, pens, rulers, and draw contour lines.
If the ground troops can go over directly, they'll work with the air to scout and draw maps. If the ground troops can't go over, or it's too dangerous, the hot air balloons will be responsible for scouting and drawing maps.
Let's first draw the terrain of the Tang dynasty's border, and then draw the terrain of the enemy's side.
Before the battle, send the hot air balloons to draw maps, and then start the battle.
Especially Tubo and the Turks in the west, there are many mountains, rivers, and valleys. "
Li Yi stated his purpose. He wanted to train the Yulin Flying Cavalry into a special force, not a suicide squad that was besieged by ants.
When they were in formation, they could not directly charge to break the enemy lines. It would be too wasteful.
The Winged Knights should be in the most crucial position on the battlefield, just like the Marines.
Not only did they have to learn to measure and draw maps, but they also had to learn to measure the distance of cannons, use their thumbs to aim, and calculate formulas.
Swimming, rock climbing, parachuting, and rope crossing. Who would be weak if they were fixed and dismounted?
In addition, they also had to practice field medicine. It was not enough to only use pigs for practice. They had to be sent to the war zone to treat their comrades in other units.
