The calculation of military supplies is extremely complicated, and even involves the chain calculation of multivariate several equations. Not only the replacement of knives and spears, but also the transportation of food alone involves many things. For example, it takes time to go back and forth, and the reduction of people and animals is driving people crazy.
In order to meet the needs of the time of the war, the transportation of military rations usually disregarded the life and death of coolies, and there were a lot of downsizing along the way. Moreover, the ratio of combat power to civilian husbands has reached one to three or even more in the market.
How to operate it, in an era when calculation methods are relatively backward, will inevitably make a soldier think hard. Therefore, the post of joining the army usually sets up several or even a dozen deputy posts.
Before leaving, Shuai Fo was afraid that Wu Zhe would not be able to do it, so he deliberately assigned several deputies to her to join the army, and they all became decorations.
Wu Zhe, alone, perfectly assumed the full duty of joining the army. Later, she simply arranged for a group of deputies to observe the public opinion of the soldiers.
"Observe the public opinion of the soldiers?" The deputy soldiers have never done such a job.
"I want you to change into the uniforms of ordinary soldiers. Eat and live with them, and get the most direct discussion..." After Wu Zhe gave a lesson, they half-understood to do it.
The deputy soldiers who made a temporary guest appearance in Jinyiwei of Dongxi Factory, what did you hear
"Our Xiao Canjun really loves soldiers like a son!"
"Even if she doesn't love soldiers like a child, we support her!"
"Yes! It's so eye-catching!"
After collecting feedback for a few days, all they heard were praises for women joining the army.
Of course, there are also things like [Xiao Canjun loves soldiers like a son, I want to be her son and eat milk...] and so on. A big soldier likes a woman, his literacy is vulgar and not high, and it is normal to talk a little bit jokingly.
If Wu Zhe has sufficient achievements, the soldiers will not only love him, but will respect him. This kind of teasing will disappear naturally.
After sifting out some deadly remarks, the deputy soldiers fed back the information truthfully.
Wu Zhe himself couldn't believe it.
Soldiers in this era are still very simple.
What kind of commander is popular? One is to be able to win battles, and the other is to be sympathetic to soldiers.
Now that there is no war, the latter is naturally more important.
For a female soldier like Wu Zhe, countless people looked at her with suspicion since the first day she arrived.
But when the actual army started, the soldiers were pleasantly surprised to find that the food was good. It is almost even more varied than home dishes.
Although Wu Zhe, as a woman, served as a military officer in the army, although it is not the first of its kind, it is also eye-catching. The various changes in the conditions given by the army are naturally recorded in the soldiers' impression of her.
Soldiers don't know what money and food expenses are, they only know that what they eat is a direct reflection of whether the above is good for them. Wu Zhe's various purchases naturally made them give their thumbs up.
They do not understand comprehensive nutrition. In fact, the intake of various nutrients directly keeps their bodies in good condition. For example, with the help of the purchase of miscellaneous vegetables along the way, the soldiers' vitamins B and C were supplemented. This kind of more scientific cultivation can stabilize people's emotions. Disease resistance is also greatly enhanced.
Coupled with the mass production of drinking water filtration devices, it is no longer necessary to dig wells when stationing troops, which reduces a lot of trouble.
Wu Zhe's improved saddle and shock absorber for carriages are even more famous.
Yes, the shock absorber of the carriage directly benefited the soldiers.
Due to the reduction of the burden of food for the army, a lot of animal power was freed up. During the daily march, soldiers who have not violated military regulations can be allocated time to board the car. One hour a day. In this way, the soldiers' feet can be rested in a timely manner. Traveling has also become faster.
"I also have the opportunity to ride in a carriage! I am so blessed to be led by Xiao Canjun!"
"It's rare to be so sympathetic to us as soldiers. Xiao Canjun is worthy of being a woman, and she has a good heart."
In the usual march, where would the general care about these details? Their minds are all about winning.
Wu Zhe is a firm supporter of details that determine success or failure. She even ordered her servants to boil a large pot of water when there was enough water. Give soldiers a chance to burn their feet.
This method of collectively scalding feet is the first of its kind. Wu Zhe arranged for some soldiers to spread "rumours". Of course, this is not a rumor, but a truth spread in good faith.
When you burn your feet, it's time for storytelling and gossip. The manpower arranged by Wu Zhe. She began to spread among the soldiers how she made great achievements in the state of Jin.
How can simple soldiers not be fooled? After a few days, admiration for Wu Zhe was formed.
If this kind of behavior is changed to a general next to him, I am afraid that the monarch will be suspicious of rebellion. For example, Yue Fei's death was largely due to the fact that he had firmly grasped the army's morale, and he was tabooed by the emperor who separated the generals and soldiers in the Song Dynasty.
However, when it is a woman who is being revered, it is different. In a world without Wu Zetian's precedent, who can doubt a woman's rebellion
Therefore, the son and the others did not have the slightest scruples, but were pleased with Wu Zhe's excellent performance. The statement about Fengchu Zhiyi in the different book was only in Shizi's mind for a while, but he didn't take it to heart.
On the fourth day, the 20,000 troops of Wu Zhe and others arrived at the Jinqi border and joined the frontier army.
The first thing Wu Zhe did was to read the latest spy information. As a result, she finished reading a table of papers in just one cup of tea.
At this time, no one was surprised.
Everyone is used to it.
Anyway, Xiao Ruoyao is a genius, why should we be surprised
Commander Yang received the order, and has allocated 20,000 troops according to the order, and handed them over to General Yang, who represents the son.
The prince naturally did not show his face, hiding in the car as a beautiful woman.
Wu Zhe did it himself, and screened out the general forces picky and picky, and filtered out five thousand old and weak troops.
After some integration, fewer troops than expected formed.
A total of 30,000 troops, including 5,000 cavalry, all of them are young soldiers who are capable of recruiting and fighting. With 10,000 servants and Wei Ling's 300 Xuanwu Army, this is the force to advance into Jin.
In the eyes of General Yang and others, it seems that this can only be compared with the military strength of Prince Xuan who was defeated.
Wu Zhe explained to them: "If there is too much military power, the people of Jin will resent it. Thirty thousand people are not too many, not too many. It should be a reasonable number to have the strength to fight and not make the people of Jin jealous."
In fact, the money and food consumed by this group of troops was much less than Prince Xuan's. Most of Prince Xuan's army is composed of cavalry, and the horses alone lead to a huge proportion of servants. Fortunately, they took food locally and robbed the rations of the people of Jin to maintain it, otherwise the logistics staff such as grain husbands would be extremely large.
After roughly explaining his thoughts, Wu Zhe changed his mind and said with a smile: "Issuing a new reward order, I want to call up soldiers who can speak tongue twisters well."
Tongue twister? (To be continued..)
