I am a nobleman in Spring and Autumn

Chapter 121 Emergencies
The arrival of winter did not stop Zhiyao from training soldiers, and took advantage of this opportunity to distribute the new shirts.

The choice of fabric for the new shirt is the same as the old one, except that the long sleeves and skirt have been removed to make it more close-fitting, and it also avoids the preparations that the old-fashioned robes need to make before the battle.

According to the concept of the Spring and Autumn Period, there are long sleeves to be elegant, no skirts are "clothes", and skirts are "robes". Only those with a certain status will not wear outer "clothes" that are seen by everyone. Those who wear "gowns".

In the eyes of the nobles, there is no difference between wearing skirts, wearing pants or not wearing pants, which is the same as exposing the lower body.

So, what Zhiyao is doing is a bit like what King Zhao Wuling would do, that is, to carry out the "Hufu" reform, but the reform is more thorough.

For the troops who are changing their clothes, they only wear "clothes" on their upper body, and they have an extra pair of trousers on their lower body that don't need to put on leggings to make them look tight.It’s just that leggings will definitely continue to be made, and it’s no longer for the pant legs to swing around when running, but it has become a need from a “scientific” perspective.

Because it is red and black trousers, if there is no armor or skirt armor, it looks like the military uniform of the Ariaki Dynasty only from the outside.

In other words, why did the Zhuxia cold weapon era equip skirt armor, and not only equip cavalry with skirt armor, but even infantry also have skirt armor?To put it bluntly, it is to help the thighs prevent arrows!

"Xian" didn't express any opinion on the new military uniforms, they are the property of the master, and the master can play with them however he likes.

The opinions of "scholars" and "disciples" are a bit big, and individual "scholars" also reacted to Zhiyao through Zaiyu, talking about the height of "the beauty of service is called Hua, and the greatness of etiquette is called Xia".

Zhiyao became curious about the "scholar" who put forward that point of view. After some research, she found out that Fang's ancestors were rich, and in modern times they have become shabby households.

The "shi" should not have the prefix "shi" based on his status, and if there is one, he can only be selected as a "shi" from a certain fiefdom of Zhishi, but he has a "first" "shi".

Going deeper, he turned out to be a descendant of the Xian family of Jin, but it was just a side branch and another side branch.

No matter how long it takes, the glory of the ancestors will not be forgotten. In fact, it is an indispensable part of national feelings.To a higher level, it is precisely not forgetting the glory created by the ancestors that gives future generations the source of spiritual motivation to struggle in difficult times.

The "surname" is used to test his blood, and the "surname" is used to express his origin.

Therefore, if they do not become nobles and live in a certain noble fief, they can also use the local place name as their "clan". (This is the case of Lu Wu in the author Jun's "The Great Lord of Spring and Autumn")
Zhiyao asked: "Does this person have inheritance?"

Jae Yu probably didn't expect Zhi Yao to ask this, and said that he would go to communicate with her specially.

Mrs. Xian!A family that used to be very brilliant in Jin State, especially the core members of this family are very capable of fighting, not only can fight themselves, but also have a surprisingly high ability to lead troops in combat, but their political wisdom is a little bit, which led to Zhao Shi took the lead and died.

It is normal for "scholars" and "disciples" to have opinions on the reform of military uniforms. After all, they have been "awakened" to a certain extent, so they will not be like "Xian" who has no demands of their own.

Zhiyao's opinion in the face of "scholars" and "disciples" is to pretend not to see, what to do or what to do.

Last time, Zhiyao dismissed the vast majority of the recruited group, leaving only a group of good seedlings, and more grassroots officers were trained by him since childhood.

It is quite normal to have self-awareness to have an opinion on something, and being willing to express an opinion also represents a manifestation of their "freedom of consciousness".

Zhiyao didn't feel dissatisfied with this phenomenon, and even thought: "Soldiers don't need their own ideas, and officers have almost no future if they don't have their own ideas."

The fact is that, the soldier is the most perfect if he takes obedience as the criterion, and the officer will be like that for the rest of his life if he has no brains.

There is another crucial factor for Zhiyao to tolerate different opinions. They convey their opinions through the correct channels, instead of making troubles by themselves or bringing others together.

In the following training, the new-style military uniform began to produce superiority, eliminating the need to wear the old-fashioned military uniform with long sleeves tied before training, and the tighter fit can also avoid the embarrassment of loose clothes that need to be adjusted during training .

Did you know that before the military uniform was reformed, the combatants had to wait for a while to redress?Now is no longer the era of "war of gentlemen", let alone the era when running fifty paces is considered out of battle.

Others may or may not have thought that the shirt would be a drag on the soldiers. It is impossible for Zhiyao, who lived in the age of advanced science in her previous life, to ignore this small detail!

Another point cannot be ignored, that is, the long sleeves are discarded and the underwear is designed to be tighter, which saves fabric!

If the Zhi family did not fall, or if the clothes designed by Zhiyao could survive to later generations, modern people must have many doubts when they see it, wondering why the clothes in the late Spring and Autumn period suddenly changed so much.

In fact, Zhiyao has been doing things that change history since he started doing things, including various "inventions" and changes to the situation.

If one day Zhiyao completes the first small goal and successfully carries out Dai Jin, quite a lot of things will inevitably change.

Changing military uniforms from this group of trainees is the first step for Zhiyao, so it will not be widely promoted in Zhiyao all at once.

To put it bluntly, it is clear that the method of boiling frogs in warm water is the best method for controversial matters, and it is not something that is too urgent, so why bother to proceed in an extremely violent way all at once?

What Zhiyao needs to prove is that the reform is beneficial!

It will undoubtedly be a very wise way of doing things to complete the proof in a small area first, and then promote it. The premise is that the situation is not urgent.

"The origin of cotton is in Asan and Arabia? It is obviously unrealistic to find cotton now. Not only is the distance far away, it is not a unified dynasty, and there is no relevant deterrent force. The people who are sent out do not know which country or country along the way will be killed. Kill the tribe..." Zhiyao looked at the slowly falling snowflakes with unfocused eyes.

How do you think Zhang Qian walked so far?Without the Han Empire behind it, without the hands of the Huns, all kinds of miscellaneous people should be intercepted and killed, and it is impossible for the countries in the Western Regions to give Zhang Qian whatever he wants.

In the process of reproduction, human beings discover species that are beneficial to development from nature, including various foods and materials that can be used.

No matter what, Zhiyao came from later generations. People today don't know the usefulness of certain items. Because of his knowledge, he can always use them earlier than others.

This advantage will always be used by Zhiyao, even if he fails to achieve various political goals in the end, just making various "inventions" is extremely beneficial to the entire civilization.

It has always been a pity that Zhiyao's recipes cannot be promoted by opening restaurants or restaurants.

No kidding, contemporary business is concentrated among the nobles. The reason is, of course, that the nobles have both private troops and subjects. The number of goods they exchange is relatively large, and they have the resources to trade.

ordinary people?Most of them are now exchanging in a way of bartering, and many people may not have seen any coins in their lives.

A considerable number of ordinary people do not have their own personal property. On the premise that they do not even have property, the relationship between trade and them may be sold by the owner one day.

Zhiyao thinks about keeping warm, mainly thinking about the future of Zhishi, including the initial expansion direction in the case of successful succession or difficult division.

"Is it feasible to raise ducks and geese on a large scale?" Zhiyao couldn't get cotton, so she began to think in this direction.

The down on ducks and geese!

Cotton cannot be obtained, so it should be most suitable to use down to make warm clothes.

But, how many ducks and geese are enough for a down jacket?Zhiyao laughed out loud as she thought about it.

Why no wool?Of course Zhiyao has thought about it, and plans to find a chance to give it a try.

"Gongsun?" Zigong often finds that Zhiyao's mind is distracted, and he always laughs when he doesn't know what to think of.

This time he came with important news that the Zhao family agreed to exchange "Handan" with the Zhi family, and proposed that the Zhi family exchange the "Zhi" land.

This "彘" land originally belonged to the Xun family. Later, Zhiying became independent and established the Zhi family. During the Zhongxing Wu era, he was in charge of the Xun family and the Zhongxing family; With "中行" as a prefix, the land of "彘" became one of the fiefdoms of the Zhongxing family.

In addition, "BOC" is not a place name.During the period of Jin Wengong’s hegemony, the three armies and three lines were established. During the Battle of Chengpu, Xun Lin’s father was Jin Wengong’s royal hand. One year later, Jin Wengong established the “Three Lines” to prepare for the invasion of the Hu people. This Xun surname produced a new branch, namely the Zhongxing family.

After hearing the report, Zhiyao was taken aback for a moment, then showed a solemn expression, and said, "So, my family is involved in the southern Xinjiang war?"

What was clear was that Mr. Zhao could not bear the loss in dealing with Mr. Fan, and found that Mr. Zhi was staring at him coldly. It was just a pretext to exchange "Handan" with Mr. Zhi for "彘". What was really discussed was At what other cost did Zhishi intervene in the attack on Fanshi.

The Wei family also couldn't afford to go to war for a long time, especially if they would lose their already stretched troops during the battle.

Under such a current situation, the Zhi family would not be willing to see the Wei family join forces with the Zhao family again because of fear of the Zhi family. fight.

Zigong was not surprised by Zhiyao's immediate reaction, and said: "The Lord told Gongsun to go to 'Handan'."

The person who proposed to obtain "Handan" is Zhiyao. No matter what the process is, it will inevitably make Zhiyao think that Zhiyao has a plan, and of course Zhiyao let Zhiyao do it.

"Is this how you got 'Handan'?" Zhiyao originally thought that it would be possible to get it only by going to war against the Zhao family.

In Zhiyao's layout, Zhishi will first expand to the east and northeast in the future, which will make the
The ownership of "Handan" is more critical.

"In my layout, 'Handan' is a very suitable place to be the capital..."
