Chapter 46 Advice

Zhou Hao's current cultivation is not up to the minimum requirements of the Qijue Arrow Formation, but this does not prevent Zhou Hao from learning Qimen gossip.

Anyway, learning this is not a one-time thing. Maybe a year later, Zhou Hao's cultivation has reached the level of a second-rate master, and he can also learn the basics of Qimen Bagua.

Zhou Hao had no choice but to ask General Xue for help if he wanted to learn Qimen gossip.

Thinking of this, Zhou Hao solemnly kept the Qijue Arrow Formation close to his body, and got up to look for Xue Wanche.

Zhou Hao's room and Xue Wanche's study are actually very close to each other, only a distance of more than twenty feet.

As soon as he arrived at the door of the study, Zhou Hao saw at a glance that Xue Wanche, the middle-aged scribe, and several other generals were gathering in front of the map, constantly pointing and discussing something.

Seeing this situation, Zhou Hao didn't dare to disturb him, so he could only stand far outside the study and wait quietly.

However, Xue Wanche is a top expert, and he felt how keen it was. Hearing slight footsteps at the door, he raised his head and saw Zhou Hao's back standing far away at the door, so he said, "Haozi, what are you brats doing?" Here? Hurry up and get me in, what are you doing standing at the door?"

Hearing this, Zhou Hao turned his head and smiled, stepped into the room, but still stood quietly aside.Xue Wanche also continued to immerse himself in the discussion and ignored him.

Zhou Hao stood in the corner and listened for a long time with his ears pricked up. It turned out that these people were talking about the supply of food and grass for the expedition to Goryeo, as well as the issue of marching.

I just heard the middle-aged scribe say: "Although it is the beginning of October, the mountains have already started to snow. In another month, it will be the middle of winter when the mountains will be covered by heavy snow. The soldiers just want to cross Changqing Mountain. It is extremely difficult. What's more, there is so much food and supplies that must be transported through Changqing Mountain. It is even more difficult. The imperial court decided to go out at this time, really"

"It's so fucking stupid." Xue Wanche took over the conversation and scolded in a hoarse voice: "War in winter is a taboo for military strategists, not to mention the extreme cold in winter in Goryeo. Food, grass, supplies, and keeping soldiers warm are his mother's big problems. I don’t know if the bastard sons of the imperial court had their heads pinched by the door panel. A month or two ago, when it was time to go to battle, they hesitated and procrastinated. Now that the opportunity to fight has been lost, they are urging us to go out.”

At this time, a general hesitated and said: "General, I heard that King Koryo is eager to restore his country. He wanted to follow your path, General, but he was held back by you and spent a lot of money last month. Buy up and down, we must rush to start the war within this year."

"So those bastard sons of the imperial court didn't have their heads pinched by the door, but they were smashed stupid by the king's silver." Xue Wanche slapped the table and scolded angrily: "I knew that the king of Korea was not a bird boy!" This thing, keeping it around sooner or later is a scourge, I should have chopped him off at the beginning."

"Cough cough" the middle-aged scribe coughed twice, and said in a deep voice: "General, since the imperial order has been issued, we are still discussing how to overcome the current difficulties. According to the situation of the last camp stealing, the performance of the Fusang Army The fighting power that comes out is not too strong, as long as our army can cross the Evergreen Mountain with all their heads and tails, there should still be a slight chance of winning."

Another general said: "It's okay to keep out the cold. We Yandi men are not so delicate, but it's difficult. In the Evergreen Mountains that are covered by heavy snow in November, the snow is several feet thick. One can step on it. You have to sink to the waist immediately, how can you march? How can you transport food, grass and luggage?"

For a while, several people fell into deep thought. Even Xue Wanche, who was always full of pride, put his hands on his forehead and frowned.

At this time, a gust of cold wind from early winter just blew into the study room, and everyone felt chills all over their bodies, and the scene was also a little chilly.

"Actually, it's not impossible to cross Changqing Mountain in winter."

At this time, a voice suddenly sounded from the corner of the wall.

Everyone hurriedly followed the prestige, and saw that the one who spoke suddenly was Zhou Hao with a faint smile on his lips.

"Oh? You kid, last time you said you had a way to steal the gate of the village, and you really let us steal the camp successfully, is there any trick this time?" Xue Wanche looked at Zhou Hao, and suddenly frowned.

After Xue Wanche's reminder, everyone remembered that Zhou Hao issued a military order to steal the gate of the village more than a month ago, and their eyes suddenly became a little expectant.

Zhou Hao was a little embarrassed by everyone's expectant eyes, and hurriedly said: "I don't have any clever ideas. It's just that we are hunters in Changqing Mountain. Many people have gone hunting in the mountain in winter. Before they enter the mountain, they will make a kind of The sled is put on the feet, and the wooden pole is supported to slide on the snow. In this way, not only will it not sink into the snow, but the speed is not slow, and it is very labor-saving.”

When Xue Wanche and the others heard it, they were immediately very interested, and hurriedly asked: "Sledge? Is there really such a thing? Will it be troublesome to make?"

"Of course it is true. I have a pair of skids in my family, and it is very simple to make. It is to cut out two wooden boards slightly wider than the feet and four or five feet long, and then put the front part of the wooden boards into the fire to bend them. Put on two wide leather ropes to fix the feet, and two seven or eight-foot wooden poles for skiing, and that’s enough.”

All the people present were smart people, and after hearing Zhou Hao's description, they immediately understood the truth.

This skid is actually like putting two boats on the feet, no matter how thick the snow is, people will not sink into it again

And the most commendable thing is that this skid is extremely simple to make

Beiyan was originally famous for its excellent ware making and numerous workshops.The production of this skid is so simple, if all the workshops in Liaodong County were mobilized and worked overtime to make hundreds of thousands of skids within a month, it would be quite easy

This is what everyone present is most concerned about.If the production of the skid is time-consuming and laborious, no matter how good and practical it is, if the quantity cannot meet the needs of hundreds of thousands of troops, it is useless

"Crack" Xue Wanche slammed the table heavily, and said excitedly: "My boy, if this method is feasible, you will have made great achievements again."

Then, Xue Wanche immediately turned to the middle-aged scribe and ordered: "Guo Xian, go and do this immediately. First, collect some skids from the hunters in Changqing Mountain, and order someone to try this method to see if it is feasible. If it is feasible, send the Samples of skids were distributed to workshops of all sizes in the county, and they were strictly ordered to rush to make them overnight, and 30 pairs must be made within one month."

"Yes, General." The middle-aged scribe took the order, turned around and prepared to leave quickly.

This middle-aged scribe is the long history of Xue Wanche's governor's mansion, his name is Guo Xian, and he is known for his outstanding strategy and ability to handle affairs.

"Husband Guo, wait, don't worry." Zhou Hao saw that Guo Xian was leaving in a hurry to handle the matter of the sled, and hurriedly said: "There is one more thing, the sled needs some skills to maneuver. If the army doesn't After training, I'm afraid it will be difficult to use the sled to cross Changqing Mountain. Husband Guo might as well invite some hunters who can use sleds in Changqing Mountain to train the army how to control the sled."
