The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1469 Adaptation
Generally speaking, Zhuzhen in the north, relying on its military strength, will not take the threat of the Datang Navy seriously. It will not take action until the soldiers of the Datang Navy are almost as good as Wang Xiwei or Yang Fu and Cheng Yong. They cleaned up the situation together, and by the way, included the entire island as their own sphere of influence.

"Even if Yang Fu and Cheng Yong want to rescue Wang Xiwei, they won't send too many troops." Xuan Shijing said, "They also need to guard against Zhu Zhen."

"So, it is advisable to fight Wang Xiwei in the south." Liu Renyuan said firmly.

Xuan Shijing nodded.

"So next, we will start planning for Wang Xiwei in the south." Xuan Shijing pointed to the map and said, "Our troops are limited and we have almost no backup, so we want to take this island completely. Every step , all need to be carefully calculated, and overall, this time is not a small challenge."

"Last night, I was taken to the other side of the mountain by that person, and half of my feet had already stepped into Yang Fu and Cheng Yong's territory. Even so, the surroundings were dark under the night, and I couldn't see anything clearly. Besides, except for the spy, there is nothing else to gain from the rest. Therefore, speaking of these two people, they still know nothing. Zhu Town in the north does not need to worry about it for the time being, but it is still necessary to send someone to investigate. Inquire, be prepared, the next thing the scouts are going to focus on is the south, by the way, what happened to the village you Xuangong went to last night?"

"There is nothing wrong with that village. They have been persuaded to surrender, so there is no need to worry about their repeating." Xuan Shijing said: "However... there is another problem before us, and that is the fact that the soldiers in the camp are not acclimatized. It seems that the symptoms have stabilized, but has General Liu noticed that since he came back last night, until now, more and more soldiers in the camp have experienced acclimatization reactions?"

The whole day yesterday, maybe I just came to the island, I didn't realize it, after a day and night of exhaustion, I took a good rest and relaxed my body, and this and that happened.

"The first step now is to solve the problems of the soldiers in our camp, otherwise, everything will be empty talk." Xuan Shijing said.

"Isn't the doctor who came with the army already treating you?" Liu Renyuan said, "The rest is just a matter of time."

Xuan Shijing shook his head when he heard the words: "It's not only a matter of time, but also medicinal materials. We brought a lot of medicinal materials with the ship, but they are only a certain amount. So many soldiers fell ill, and medicinal materials are also a problem. .”

"Man is not as good as God. Before departure, everything was considered and everything was taken into account, but in the end, there were still problems of one kind or another," Liu Renyuan said.

"Now we have to let the scouts inquire about the news, and we have to deal with these trivial matters in the camp. Therefore, this battle will not be fought for a while. As for the medicinal materials, I will let Chang Le go to the stockade. Let the people in the village help to go up the mountain to collect herbs." Xuan Shijing said.

"For today's plan, that's the only way to go."

Xuan Shijing and Liu Renyuan discussed in the camp for a long time, while the soldiers in the camp outside, as long as they can still stand up, have been busy consolidating the camp, patrolling around the camp, and the doctors in the camp are also busy. Don't touch the ground, treat the soldiers in the camp.

Although the soldiers of the Yangzhou Navy live on board, this is the first time they have gone to Ryukyu. Geographically speaking, Ryukyu Island is already located in a tropical area, and the soldiers on the island must adapt to life on the island as soon as possible. , not only the environment and climate, but also all aspects of clothing, food, housing and transportation. The most important thing is to adapt to the food on the island.

Xuan Shijing knew that the time to stay on this island would not be too short, and the food on the boat would not be supplied until they left the island, so in the future, it would be a difficult task to be self-reliant on this island task.

As for the village in the Tang Dynasty, they didn't have much food in stock. After all, they had to hand over a lot of things to Yang Fu and Cheng Yong throughout the year, and their family was poor.

If you want to use war to support war, you have to have a certain family background at first. Anyway, the current naval officers and soldiers are not good, not that they can’t fight, but once they fight, the loss is too great. The soldiers of the army suffered so badly.

In the next few days, the camp of the sailors became more and more stable. The camp became stronger and stronger, and more and more soldiers in the camp became uncomfortable. The doctors were busy with diagnosis and treatment, some of them recovered, and some He just got sick, and according to Xuan Shijing's estimation, such days will last at least another half a month.

On the other side of the stockade, Da Zhuang and Er Shun led their people up the mountain to help collect herbs every day. Batch after batch of fresh herbs were transported to the camp, processed by the doctors, and then decocted into soup for the soldiers to eat .

Until now, most of the food eaten by the soldiers is still brought from Quanzhou. Only a few strong soldiers have gradually adapted to the local food. After all, adaptation is also a process, and they can adapt in batches. It's a good thing, fortunately, there will be no adverse reactions if everyone crowds together at once. In that case, the Tang army will really have no combat power at all. Even a village with [-] troops can easily defeat the enemy. The navy's soldiers were defeated.

When marching and fighting, the most important thing to overcome is the loss and damage caused by geographical environmental factors. Whether it is the severe cold in Liaodong, the sweltering heat in Ryukyu, or the altitude sickness on the border of Tubo, you need to constantly overcome it. The soldiers in the army can only be in a passive state all the time.

Why did Datang and Tubo have frequent conflicts, but they still couldn't fight?The reason lies in the geographical location of Tubo. After the army of the Tang Dynasty reached the plateau, [-]% of its combat power was lost before it started fighting. This battle was impossible to fight.

Xuan Shijing's ability to adapt is very strong. After a few days, there has never been any reaction to acclimatization, but the weather is sultry, and he has been staying in the tent all the time. He is a little upset. If he goes out to the camp for a walk , but feel uncomfortable in the sun.

"Chang'an is the most comfortable time in this season." Sitting in front of the desk, Xuan Shijing couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "There is a cool place where you can escape the heat, where you can eat and drink."

"Grandpa, are you homesick?" Gao Jun asked.

Xuan Shijing nodded undeniably: "Yeah, I don't know what's going on at home now, whether my daughter is fat or thin now."
