No matter what chaos in this world is now, it will not affect Wuhan University.
Today's Wuhan University and his party are turning a blind eye to things outside the window, and are all focused on going to the country of Japan!
With the passage of time, the season has come to the beginning of February 1126 AD.
The crusade against the Japanese Kingdom was a long-planned plan of Wuhan University. He made sufficient preparations. In fact, everything was exactly as he expected. Overall, the progress was fairly smooth.
Zhang Shun in the white strips in the waves, because he set off for more than half a month ahead of schedule, he moved quickly. He sprinkled a lot of fierce oil on the ice along the way intermittently, every 150 miles. This is to facilitate the passage of the giant ship of Yanyun Navy and follow the speed of the giant ship. To calculate.
Although there have been some small mistakes in the middle, those small episodes are harmless.
However, as the old saying goes, the plan can never keep up with the rapid changes. What's more, as the so-called wise man thinks about, he must lose. The only thing he missed is the food and grass supply that he did not pay much attention to during this trip. .
The resources of the sea are rich and colorful, and there is never a shortage of food, so Wuhan University did not pay much attention to this from the beginning. The food supply of the brothers did not go wrong, and the problem was with the horse.
Each of the giant ships of the Yanyun Navy can carry more than 500 sergeants, except for the sailors of the Yanyun Navy. In other words, 20 giant ships can carry 10,000 people at a time.
On this trip, Wuhan University brought one hundred Wufu family guards, 1,000 iron-blooded thirteen eagles, 130 Feihu brigade elites, and 5,000 five commanders’ military guards. The Akabane Battalion consisted of 500 people. There are 200 elites in Cobwebs and Black Crows and 1,000 in Dongguo Taixun Daqin Camp, and the total is definitely less than 10,000 horses.
The biggest problem lies with the war horse.
The bilge of each giant ship carried 100 war horses, a total of more than 2,000. The reason why they were carried separately was to avoid the danger of the giant ship being unable to rescue.
In this regard, Wuhan University expected it to be very comprehensive.
However, he has forgotten after all that the sea is indeed rich in materials, and the brothers do not get hungry, but what about the horses? What does the war horse eat? Is it possible to eat seafood like people? Has anyone ever seen a war horse eat meat and seafood? This is nothing short of a slippery world!
Then there is a problem. On the huge ship, there is no shortage of weapons and armor, no shortage of fierce kerosene, sky-shaking thunder, and even dried meat, except for the fodder for feeding horses.
This is going to be the life of Wuhan University!
Where can I find fodder for the horse on the sea? No matter how powerful Wuhan University is, it can't be made out of nothing, right
In desperation, Wuhan University had no choice but to order Yan Yun's brother to tie the rope to the spear hook and salvage seaweed and other marine plants along the way.
"Seaweed" is a general term for marine algae such as kelp, laver, wakame, and gelican, and is the algae that grows in the sea.
However, these seaweed plants only grow in shallow waters, so the salvaged seaweed plants are still extremely rare, at least for a thousand horses, it can only be regarded as a drop in the bucket.
Besides, all the horses used in the past were carefully selected. They were all equipped with thirteen eagles. They ate good fodder on weekdays. After suddenly changing this kind of seaweed, the horses basically didn't eat them.
What frustrated Wuhan University the most was the brothers who were walking with him. How should the other Twenty Route Army scattered around and their horses get supplies
Moreover, don’t forget that walking densely on the ice in a large area will rupture the ice. The twenty-way army, the brothers on each road are scattered extremely sparsely, which in disguise increases the difficulty for the brothers to obtain warhorse fodder. .
Could it be that the crusade against the Japanese nation will come to an end without any disease? No way, Wuhan University can only let the brothers of Cobweb disembark and contact the other Twenty Route Army. Let the brothers work hard and stand on their own feet. If there is really no way, then send someone back to Yanyun to send a message and re-transport the fodder. .
Time waits for no one. The coldest months in the country are only January and February. If you miss this time and want to attack the country again, you will at least have to wait another year.
And if you abandon the war horse and directly attack the Wa country, it will be more than the gain. Without the war horse, the brothers will all become infantry soldiers. They will not be able to maintain their mobility, and they will not be able to use the smallest loss to maximize the damage to the enemy. Can go shopping, such a situation is definitely not what Wuhan University wants to see.
…
A few days later, there were a few snowflakes floating in the sky, and Wu Dazheng was sitting bored at the stern... fishing.
How many are wearing cotton-padded clothes, wrapping themselves up and down, facing the cold north wind, fishing? Don't believe it, Wuhan University really did it.
No way, it's too boring to be in the maritime navigation committee. I can only have fun by myself, let alone, I am used to fishing in this environment, the sour feeling... It is really incomparable ecstasy.
Watching the snow and cooking wine, the passion for thousands of miles, the chic gossip, tasting spirits, and singing crazy songs, it really has a special flavor.
The most important thing is that although Wuhan University does not know how to fish, he is a fishing idiot, but he shows off his skills on the sea!
The reason is simple. There are too many fish in the deep sea this year and they have not been caught at all, let alone fishing. Wuhan University hangs up the bait and throws it down. Within a moment, the fish will naturally bite. He kept showing off his stink, saying how good he was fishing, and Zhang Liang and the others were full of black lines.
The same is true today. Zhang Liang couldn't stand the nonsense of Wuhan University. He ran into the cabin to warm himself up and down, and he couldn't see it.
The fish bit the hook, Wu Da squinted, Xin picked up the fishing rod, flicked the fish out of the sea, caught the fish, took off the hook, and threw the fish into the sea again with a look of compassion. Something said: "Amitabha, God has a good life, Brother Yu, you will become a fine five hundred years later, remember that I will spare your life..."
After doing a good deed, I felt comfortable, Wu Da reached out his hand and took a sip from the hip flask, and his shoulder suddenly sank.
It was the horse from Wuhan University that called "Laifu". It was shamelessly kneeling on the board of the ship, leaning the head of the horse on the shoulder of the University, banging his nose and neighing, as if he was extremely dissatisfied with the University.
What people play with birds, this horse of Wuhan University is about to become refined, not only can sit down, but also like to drink, it was good for the first time, Wuhan University takes a sip of it, this time, Wuhan University is obviously shameless, and drink it by yourself. After three, Laifu is naturally unhappy and is expressing his dissatisfaction.
Wu Da was helpless, poured the hot wine into the basin, and invited Laifu to drink.
Laifu stretched out his tongue and drank the hot wine in the plate.
Today, Laifu seems to be a bit drunk, drunk, and lying on the ground with his four claws up to the sky, beginning to show joy, and then pretending to be dead. The painting style is so beautiful that I can hardly bear to look directly at it.
Wu Gang, who came to report the information, twitched his old face, resisting the smile in his heart, and said in a deep voice:
"Boss, the brother of Spiderweb has sent information back."
