Great Tang princess

Chapter 318 On the Change of Qinling
Lun Qinling has been quite honest since he was imprisoned in the military camp.

At the beginning, I was very uncomfortable with the sound of drums beating every morning when the soldiers assembled for training. I was woken up almost every morning and couldn't continue to fall asleep.

Of course, even if it was noisy here, he didn't want to go back to the first-level confinement room where there was no sound at all, and he couldn't even distinguish day from night.

What's more, now that he is a prisoner, he naturally dare not ask for anything, so he has to change his work and rest time forcibly, get up every day listening to the sound of drums, and sit on the bed to observe the training of these soldiers through the window.

After a period of observation, Lun Qinling also understood why his soldiers lost to them.

These soldiers don't have to think about anything else every day, as long as they are in charge of training, their physical fitness is not at the same level compared to those half-agricultural and half-soldier soldiers under them. I am afraid that these soldiers can beat three Tubo soldiers by themselves.

Of course, he and he knew that to achieve this, they must have strong logistical support.

Although I haven't been to the cafeteria in person, but judging from the meals delivered every day, I can also understand what the soldiers here eat every day.

Even he, a prisoner, has meat almost every day, let alone these soldiers.

At the same time, there is the most critical point, discipline!
Lun Qinling said it was unbelievable to see these soldiers ordering and prohibiting, gathering quickly, and even walking in uniform.

He is also a military strategist, so he can naturally see what is behind such a strong discipline.

During the time he was detained, he observed the training of these soldiers almost every day, and learned a lot from it.

So he asked for some books, as well as some pens and paper, and wanted to write down his insights.

Although it may not be possible to pass it on to my descendants, since I have a feeling, I always want to be able to record it.

Even if she was killed, Princess Taiping is still a soldier, so she should be willing to compile the insights she wrote into books and pass them on.

While he was waiting cautiously to see if his request would be fulfilled, Geng Yunqiang suddenly informed him that he could go out for a walk during the day from now on.

In addition to not being able to leave the barracks, you can visit anywhere in it. Of course, there will be two soldiers watching him throughout the process.

Although I don't know why they did this, it's always good to go out for a walk, and Lun Qinling himself naturally wouldn't object.

The next day, he still got up with the sound of the army drum, tidied up his appearance, probably washed up, and walked out of his cell impatiently.

Although I have to come back to sleep at night, it is good to go out for a walk, even if I don't do anything, just basking in the sun.

For several days, Lun Qinling came out early every day to watch the training of these soldiers. Now he has figured out the training process of these soldiers.

After getting up and running in the morning, I went back to clean up and then ate.

In the morning, they usually train various military skills. Dog trainers train dogs, grenadiers train throwing, and ordinary soldiers are responsible for learning various skills such as crossbow shooting and close combat.

Before noon, we will get together and take cultural classes together.After eating at noon, I will sleep for a while, and then continue with the cultural class.

In the afternoon, I started to train my physical fitness and sweated on the training ground. In the middle of the afternoon, there was mung bean soup, which was said to prevent heatstroke.

After dinner, there is basically nothing to do, and each will go to the dormitory to get ready to sleep.

Of course, sometimes there will be an emergency assembly in the middle of the night, and these soldiers can do it very well.

There will be two days of no training in every seven days, and the soldiers will play various games such as Cuju...

This kind of training mode is something he has never seen before, but if he thinks about it carefully, he can roughly see the intention behind it.

Thinking of this, Lun Qinling couldn't help sighing, he really deserved the loss.This Princess Taiping is really terrifying!

On this day, he did not visit the training ground, but wandered around on the first floor.

When passing by a room, I suddenly heard the sound of arguing inside.

Curious, he turned his head and looked at the two soldiers behind him who were monitoring him.

Seeing that there was no reaction from the two of them, they pushed open the door and entered the room.

The windows of the rooms in the barracks are all equipped with transparent glass, which is very bright, and you can see the whole picture as soon as you enter the door.

On the table in the middle, there were several children who looked no more than fifteen or sixteen years old, male and female, discussing something.

Two of the children were sitting opposite each other, with a high-precision sand table in the middle. Both of them had different chess pieces in their hands, and they were placing them in front of them.

After listening to what they were arguing about, Lun Qinling realized that these kids were actually discussing the art of war, and at this moment they were doing a deduction on the sand table.

These children were also wearing the same black military uniforms as those soldiers, and he subconsciously looked over their shoulders.

Having been here for so long, Lun Qinling also knew that their epaulettes represented the rank of the military.

There is only a bar in the middle on the epaulets of these children, and no stars can be seen. This is an epaulette he has never seen before, and he does not know what rank it belongs to.

Several children turned their heads and looked at him. They didn't know the middle-aged man in front of him who was not wearing a military uniform, but seeing the two spots of plateau red on his face, he must be a Tibetan.

They didn't pay attention to it either, and after just taking a look at it, they continued to deduce it.

A little girl put her chess pieces in the jungle on the sand table: "I sent two squads to scout from the flanks. Calculated according to the distance, it only takes three hours to figure out your deployment. At that time, just launch a feint attack here , the frontal hot air balloon takes off, and it will be able to..."

"Impossible!" The boy on the opposite side waved his hand. "The hot air balloon is too obvious to take off during the day, and it can be clearly seen several miles away. After I see it, as long as I retreat into the jungle, the hot air balloon can't find me at all."

The girl on the opposite side grinned: "That's just right, we have more people. At this time, we only need to deploy [-] pawns to perform a carpet search. After finding it, throw a smoke bomb mark, and the hot air balloon flies at low altitude, and we can directly throw a grenade at the mark! Your entire army is wiped out!"

"Ah this..."

The boy didn't seem to have considered this, and was a little dazed immediately.

A boy next to him punched him on the shoulder: "Let you pretend! And let her get 20,000 people, now it's over! Are you gone?"

The girl on the opposite side propped her chin with her hand and said, "I would like to accept the bet!"

The boy gritted his teeth, then got up and saluted: "Sister, I was wrong, and I will not contradict anyone in the future!"

"Well, what you say is what you say, he is a man!" The girl on the opposite side nodded slightly and smiled.

Seeing this, Lun Qinling also understood what happened. Presumably it was a bet between the two parties, and the loser had to admit his mistake to the other party.

The boy thought he was great, and he deliberately gave the other party 20,000 people, intending to win more with less, but he was hit in the head by the other party when he thought of it.

He now has a rough guess about the identities of these children, but he still wants to verify it.

Then he turned his head and asked the soldier in charge of monitoring him: "What rank is the pattern on their shoulders?"

"Student soldiers, reserve cadres." The soldier replied.

These students originally studied with Princess Xuancheng, because they all wanted to join the Princess Army, so they took an exam some time ago, and those who passed came to the military camp and began to be trained as future staff officers.

Their language and mathematics levels are not bad now, so their learning progress is much faster than those children in the school, and now they are learning while training with the army.

The soldier's answer made Lun Qinling feel a little admiration for Princess Taiping. He aimed to cultivate talents in the army, so that the army is always developing. It really is absolutely extraordinary.

Look at these children in front of them, they are only fourteen or fifteen years old, and they have already been trained as military officers.In Tubo, children of this age are basically handymen or cannon fodder in the army.

As for the children of noble families, although they can also learn the art of war, they themselves will not live in the army.

And these children, judging by their temperament, do not seem to be of noble origin, so it is unheard of for them to be trained as military officers.

Knowing this, the children in the room turned their heads and looked at him carefully.

The girl who just won seemed a little careless, and asked, "Who are you?"

"It doesn't matter who I am, but would you like to play a game with me?" Lun Qinling suddenly asked with a smile.

"You?" The little girl sized him up, "You seem to be from Tubo, right? Do you know the different types of troops in the Qianniu Guard?"

Lun Qinling nodded and smiled, "Of course I understand."

To be honest, he really knows about the things in the princess army.

Observing their training during this period of time, I have a good understanding of different arms and weapons.

"Okay, then let's go." The little girl on the opposite side was also unambiguous, nodded and began to gather the chess pieces, "You and I each have [-] infantry, [-] cavalry, [-] thousand cattle guards, hot air balloons and other equipment... ..."

Listening to the other party's introduction of the rules, Lun Qinling smiled and nodded to express his understanding.

After looking carefully, the two little girls in this room are like Princess Taiping, with high ponytails, looking very neat.

The four boys, like the other soldiers, had their hair cut a lot shorter, with a short ponytail tied behind their heads, even shorter than many soldiers outside.

"What's the name of the little lady?" Lun Qinling asked.

"My name is Zhong Qin!" The little girl replied, with undisguised pride on her face, "My Highness gave me my name!"

Many girls in this era don't have names, but in the army, it's inconvenient not to have a name, so Li Yuechen named these two future female staff officers.

For ordinary people, giving a name to a princess is indeed something to be proud of. This can be seen from the face of this little girl.

It's just that after a short time, the proud expression on her face turned into disappointment, and she stared blankly at her completely collapsed position on the sand table in front of her in a daze.

In just one cup of tea, she was completely defeated.

Although Lun Qinling didn't have a thorough understanding of the coordination of these novel armies, no matter what he said, he was a long-established military strategist, and he quickly killed all of Zhong Qin's soldiers.

After winning the battle, Lun Qinling smiled, got up and walked out of the room without saying anything.

It wasn't until he walked out that he secretly heaved a sigh of relief, good guy, are the young people in Datang so powerful?Unexpectedly, a little girl from a commoner background can push me to this point...

……

The next day Li Yuechen came over to the barracks to have a look, and heard about recent events in Lun Qinling.

After listening to the report, she smiled slightly: "Well, go and ask him if he is willing to be a teacher and teach in the school with Wang Xiaojie."

"Will he agree?" Geng Yunqiang wondered, "Anyway, he is also from Tubo..."

"I don't know, just ask." Li Yuechen replied, "Most of the problems between people can be solved through communication. Besides, if you don't want to now, you may not want to in the future."

"Yes! The subordinate understands."

After explaining the matter, Li Yuechen returned to the palace.

She was not sure whether Qin Ling would agree, but if possible, she still wanted to fight for it.

……

Xia went to ask, it was already a little cold in September, Li Yuechen was in good health and didn't add any clothes, but Li Zhi was already covered with a thick blanket.

He is still asleep most of the time every day, only a few hours are awake.

When I'm awake, I don't bother to talk about work, basically I just hold my daughter's hand and chat all over the world. Most of the time, I'm talking about things about my childhood.

In fact, many topics were being talked over and over again, but Li Yuechen didn't find it annoying at all, and listened carefully every time.

Wu Zetian still sits next to him every day reviewing memorials, but originally he was asking the emperor about many things, but now he is asking Li Yuechen about many things.

It can't be said to be an inquiry, but many things are more complicated. If there is someone to talk to, it can make the thinking clearer and provide a different perspective.

In fact, Li Yuechen didn't really want to be an adviser to his mother, so he always dragged his third brother Li Xian over and asked him to chat with his mother about government affairs.

But on the one hand, the third brother is not very sensitive to this aspect, and on the other hand, he is afraid of his mother. Many times, Wu Zetian just asks one more question, and he will wonder if she is angry, so he dare not say anything.

Seeing his elder brother's appearance, Li Yuechen became more and more convinced that his plan was correct.

With the passage of time, almost everyone can see that the emperor's life has almost come to an end, and with the succession of the throne, another round of bloody storms will inevitably occur.

Among other things, the future and future of many people will be related to whether the prince or the queen mother will take over the power next.

Of course, more importantly, who does Princess Taiping support?
Now the Qianniuwei under the princess is already a powerful force that cannot be ignored, and her joining may even turn the whole situation around... Most people in the court think so.

However, inside the palace, the atmosphere was completely different from what they had imagined.

The children come to accompany their parents almost every day, and the family enjoys eating and drinking tea, even joking with each other, and there is no tension at all.
