Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 441
Liu Mu's eyes were straightened when he heard that, there is actually a cure for the terrible scorpion poison that will not be solved in later generations.

Li Shimin also said: "I was also there, said Old Immortal Sun. His snake venom can turn the blood of a living person into tofu, but this scorpion venom is exactly the opposite. And the dosage was very small at that time, so there is a solution. If there is more , the death may be even worse."

"Yes, poison is also good medicine." Li Yuan added.

Liu Mu didn't want to think about whether the poison was too little, or it was impure, or it could really detoxify.What he cares about is who did it.

Li Shimin said: "I didn't find anything in my house. Not only the floor was lifted, but also several walls were smashed."

"Jieli..." Li Yuan shook his head, "No, I thought there was someone else."

"Father means that this was done by the former Sui Yicheng Princess?" Li Shimin asked.

Li Yuan nodded: "This kind of conspiracy is beyond the imagination of people like Xie Li. I also arranged for Peng Hai to search secretly in the harem to see if he found anything."

Liu Mu realized that Li Yuan and Li Shimin came here not only to visit, but more importantly, to prevent the people of Chang'an City from noticing the abnormality. They claimed that Li Yuan personally inspected the Tiance Right Guard New Army that was being formed.

Liu Mu said at this time: "This Princess Yicheng is really a hero among women."

Li Yuan and his son also nodded. Regardless of what Princess Yicheng did to Tang Dynasty, to Sui Dynasty, this princess's achievements are enough to be recorded in the annals of history.

"Let the hidden guard investigate the poisonous matter." Li Yuan has already started to change his address.

Originally, the name Shence Yinwei was just a proposal, but now it seems that Li Yuan is ready to formalize it, and Tiance Right Guard belongs to Liu Mulian's new army.

Liu Mu understood that it would take more than half a year to find out about the poisoning.Not only in Chang'an City, but also go deep into the grassland to investigate.

"I heard my second brother talk about some interesting things. I thought Da Lang was very good at it, but now it seems that you are doing well, Xiao Mu." Li Yuan started to talk about business, and asked Liu Mu, "What do you think?"

"Ten words. What you supply is what you need, and what you need is what you get! During the Battle of Bingzhou, some problems were discovered. The poor camps could not get enough to eat. The richer camps did not eat supplies but went to the surrounding states to find It’s terrible. Also, at that time, the soldiers didn’t want to wear the clothes and shoes they were issued, and they would rather spend money to buy them.”

Li Yuan nodded, he was also aware of the situation.

Not now, but since the day the army was raised, this situation has always existed.

Li Shimin also said: "There are some things in the warehouse of the Ministry of War that will never be enough, and some things that have been left in dust for so many years will never be needed."

Li Yuan stopped Li Shimin: "Don't mention these things, just talk about what you saw."

"Father, some things about Xiaomu's soldiers are nothing special at first glance, but they are very interesting when you look closely. The shoes are unusual, comfortable and durable, and the military uniform is very good. The small basin can be used for washing, and it can also be used as a large bowl for eating during the march. .It is stronger than wooden bowls and lighter than porcelain bowls.”

Li Shimin spoke one by one, and listed the weight and the volume of the marching backpack.

Li Yuan calculated carefully in his mind: "Then, let's calculate now. The backpacks carried by soldiers can reduce the load by half. Can the military equipment required by the supply camp be equivalent to three times the previous one?"

"It can be calculated in this way." Li Shimin also thought it was this number.

Liu Mu said at this time: "Father, second brother. During the Battle of Bingzhou, I saw the stove of the gang leader, all in clay pots, and then cooked wild vegetables and corn. It is always bad to eat like this. I am working on a new set. A good food system, soldiers and wars can’t just eat enough.”

Li Yuan and Li Shimin glanced at each other and laughed together.

Li Shimin said to Liu Mu: "It's good to be able to eat enough. The second brother has been fighting for so many years, and that's what the second brother saw. It's only a few years that he can really eat enough."

Li Shimin told Liu Mu the details of the wars over the years.

Liu Mu didn't read these in history books. I believe there are such records, but Liu Mu didn't pay attention to them.

Let’s talk about grain first. Tang Jun’s staple food is millet, which is millet.Because the shelf life of millet is twice that of rice, millet can reach ten years.As for the taste, it is not in the dictionary of military logistics officers and soldiers at all.

When the army of the Tang Dynasty had sufficient food, soldiers with heavy physical needs could eat two liters of millet every day.

As for non-staple food, there is no way to consider it at all.

"Xiaomu, that Mo Dao soldier. For ordinary defenders, they can wear it and walk a few steps. It is impossible to fight with a sword. The soldiers are poorly fed and not physically strong enough to wear heavy armor. Let's take it for now. The patrolling soldiers of Shuofang County usually return to the city every ten days when they leave the city."

What Li Shimin said about Liu Muming is still a problem of limited transportation.

If it is a hundred miles away from the city to patrol, the scouts will return to the city once every ten days. If they return to the city every day, it is impossible to guarantee that the patrol will reach the safety line of a hundred miles.

Li Shimin continued: "According to Shuofang's documents, the patrolling soldiers each bring two buckets of millet, two catties of dried meat, one tael of dried vegetables, two taels of salt or six taels of pickles. Finally, two catties of milk powder, this milk powder At first, many soldiers were reluctant to drink it, and wanted to keep it for the children at home, but after several forced orders, the soldiers still kept some of it.”

"It's not bad for hungry soldiers!" Li Yuan added.

"That's it, Shuofang's supply pressure is still very high. The soldiers in the city don't have any dried meat. Each person has a bucket and a half of millet per day, a catty of salt and three catties of meat per month. That's it." After Li Shimin finished speaking, he also slightly smiled. Sighing, he was also troubled by the problem of logistical supplies.

Logistical supply is a huge challenge that every dynasty has to face.

"Father, Second Brother. Wait for me for a while."

Liu Mu got up and left, went to the kitchen of his Xiaozhuang and came back with something like a millstone on his back.

The sound of that thing on the table was like dropping a piece of wood.

Li Yuan and Li Shimin stared at the thing that looked like a millstone. It looked light gray, and it felt softer than wood when knocked with hands.The thing in front of me was about two feet in diameter, three inches in thickness, and estimated to weigh twenty catties.

Neither Li Yuan nor Li Shimin knew what this thing was.

Liu Mu took his high-grade fine steel barrier knife from the wall, cut off the skin layer first, and said: "These guys are idiots, I told them, use wheat straw to simmer, and be careful not to block the chimney." But they still blackened the pot helmet for me, but they even ate the outside."

After the outermost layer of willow is cut off, the inside is white.

Then he cut off a piece and handed it to Li Yuan: "Father, this was made a month ago, you can try it."

"A month ago?" Li Yuan broke off a piece with his hands and put it in his mouth, a look of joy appeared on his face, the food became more and more delicious.
