The first update is delivered!

During dinner in the evening, Zhang Chao proposed the idea of ​​running a private school in Zhangjiagou.

"I want to run a private school for a few dollars, just hire two gentlemen. As for the private school house, just tamp a few earth walls and then build a roof with wood thatch. Then lay a floor heating system and don't be afraid of the cold winter. We have ready-made materials and labor, and even hire two gentlemen, it doesn't cost much. Starting a private school is a good deed that can benefit one."

"This is a good thing." Dad nodded.

Today, my father was a little absent-minded, holding a bowl of rice, only focusing on chopping rice without picking up food.

"Dad, what happened?"

The father put down the bowl and sighed, "I have something to tell you. Today I went to the military mansion in the village."

Hearing the word "Military Mansion", Zhang Chao frowned, "Are you going to go to war?" But my father just came back from the Central Plains battlefield. According to the rules, he could rest at home for the next ten months.

However, there is an exception, that is, if there is a war, the court can summon them, unconditional.

"Want to go to war?"

"Yeah." Dad nodded, "I received the transfer order and was promoted to the team leader."

"Congratulations to Daddy for his success."

But my father was not very happy. He was already very old and had long been indifferent to promotions. Now with Zhang Chao, the son of Zhang Chao, all he wanted was to get married early with Qi Niang, and then watched Zhang Chao marry the daughter of Cui.

He just wanted to have Yi and play with his grandson as soon as possible and enjoy the rest of his life.

But this transfer order came from Tiance Prefecture, which is the highest institution that controls the Tang Dynasty's external expeditions. The transfer order of the King of Qin is unchangeable.

My father knew that this order probably came from Shubao's kindness. He wanted to seek a promotion for him and then transferred him to the King of Qin to follow the military training to fight, which was to give him a chance to win honors.

"Don't Uncle Ke Shan and the others are going too?"

The father nodded. Although the White Deer Cheqifu was affiliated with the Banner Army, the King of Qin was not only General Tiance, but also the general of the Twelve Guards. In name, all the guards of the Tang Dynasty were able to command and mobilize them, except for the emperor's imperial guards and the prince's Eastern Palace Guards.

"The King of Huai'an, King of Yi'an and Prince Yan were defeated one after another. The situation in Shandong, Hebei was deteriorating. The King of Qin submitted several memorials to command troops to go to the expedition. The prince could no longer stop him, and His Majesty had already allowed the King of Qin to go to the expedition. This time, in addition to the old prefectures under the King of Qin, dozens of military prefectures in Guanzhong were also mobilized to follow the expedition. Bailu Mansion was also in the ranks of the conquests. Except for one squad and one squad of remaining military prefectures to guard the military prefectures, the other three squads were all conscripted and launched."

My father and his group of people who just returned were also called.

Therefore, not only did my father go to the expedition, but Keshan and Kewu and others also went to the expedition. There were nearly thirty soldiers in Zhangjiagou, twenty of whom were on the expedition.

"Will you go to the battle right away?"

"It's not that fast. Although the military order has been brought down, there are still many preparations to be made. It will take a lot of time to raise food and grass and gather the troops of the government. It is estimated that it will take half a month at the earliest."

Half a month later, it is mid-October, and half a month later it is early November.

It’s cold and the weather is cold, and it’s not a good time to send troops at this time.

But the situation in Hebei and Shandong really made Li Tang unable to sit still. From Gaokaidao in Beiping to Liu Heita in Hebei, and Xu Yuanlang in Shandong, dozens of states in the eastern region were in full swing.

Even the Turks were ready to move at this time. There was already information to prove that Liu Heita Gao Kaidao and others had long received secret support from the Turks.

The Tang Dynasty now had to quickly suppress and quell the rebellion in Kanto and guard against the Turks in the north, and could not break up with the Turks.

Under such circumstances, the Tang Dynasty needed to quell the Kanto Rebellion in a short period of time. For this reason, Prince Li Jiancheng could no longer stop Li Shimin from going to war, and Li Yuan had to use Li Shimin's ace.

Zhang Chao thought about it and something was wrong.

The last time he checked the historical materials on his computer hard drive, Li Shimin obviously sent troops until February next year.

"Dad, is there any news from Uncle Li?"

"After the defeat of King Huai'an and King Yi'an, all the officials and troops in Hebei were defeated. Many state chiefs were captured and killed one after another. The King of Qin reported to His Majesty and ordered Duke Mao to withdraw to Liyang. He heard that Duke Mao had just withdrawn from the clan city, and Liu Heita was killed. If he retreated one day later, he would definitely be trapped. Even so, Duke Mao retreated for five thousand men and was still caught by a vanguard of Liu Heita. In a fight, Duke Mao wiped out a thousand cavalry vanguards of Liu Heita, and he also lost more than 800 people to withdraw to Liyang."

"Uncle Li withdrew from Li Yang?"

Another change.

In history, Li Shiji suffered a great defeat in Shenzhou. The five thousand troops were wiped out, and only one of him ran away. But now, the court actually ordered Li Shiji to retreat early.

Although he still fought a war, he only lost 800 yuan after all, and the main force still withdrew from Li Yang.

Liu Heita was still unstoppable, sweeping across Hebei, killing gods and Buddhas. But Li Shiji withdrew. Now Li Shiji still held an elite force, guarding Li Yang, and nailed between Liu Heita, Hebei and Xu Yuanlang, Shandong, to keep an important stronghold in the court.

Zhang Chao gradually understood why Li Shimin had to go to Hebei a few months earlier than in history.

Li Shimin wanted to take advantage of the situation where Lizhou had not been lost and immediately sent troops to reinforce Li Shiji and defend this forward base.

"Are you sure the day?"

"It's almost the beginning of November."

If it were before, my father would not be so reluctant. Now, he really doesn't want to leave home and go on a war.

"You are so old, let me go on your behalf." Zhang Chao couldn't help but say.

My father smiled with relief, "Last time Maogong wanted to take you to Hebei, you went straight to the mountains. I know you don't like fighting, you can't even ride a horse, what battlefield should you go to?"

"I can now stab thirty guns in one breath, draw thirty bows, and thirty swords."

"No mansion soldier can do this. Any mansion soldier can stab three or five hundred guns, or even one thousand guns. You are not qualified to go to the battlefield. He can only draw a bow, but he can't even shoot arrows. Besides, I'm not old enough to ask my son to go to the battle for his father. I just feel reluctant to let my family go to the battlefield, and I'm not old enough to go to the battlefield."

"Then I'll follow you."

"What can you do with me? When I go to the battlefield, I have to take care of you. I can't take care of you. Just don't cause trouble for me. Besides, there is such a big stall at home, and someone will take care of you. After I leave, the whole family will be handed over to you."

Zhang Chao felt a little confused. He was really grateful and liked his father during these time with him. This is a simple man, generous and kind. He is just a little person in this great era, but he is also a tall backer and a warm harbor.

There are many dazzling lights in him.

"You don't have to worry about me. I have fought for most of my life, and I have never fought any kind of bad battle. Back then, I fought with the enemy in the city of Liaodong three times, but I fell off the city of Liaodong and fell from the city of Liaodong. Later, I was betrayed by someone and didn't die. Don't worry, it won't be a problem when I go to Hebei."

The father in turn comforted Zhang Chao, "I want to follow the King of Qin to fight this time. Although the King of Qin is young, the commander of the army is Wei Qing and Huo Qubing. In the last battle in the Central Plains, Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande's families were large and large, and they still fought at home, but they were defeated by the King of Qin. This time, Hebei is at most three or five months, and I will be back before next summer."

"Dad, what preparations should be made before going to war?"

"Prepare swords, guns, armor, bows, arrows, spears, horses, mules, dry food, etc."

The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty had to prepare their own equipment, and most of the equipment had to be prepared. The court gave the fields and exempted the rent from the mediocre people, in exchange for the soldiers who had to prepare their own equipment to go to the battlefield.

The military government has strict standards for the equipment provided by the government soldiers. If the standards cannot be met, they will be punished.

Because the government soldiers were mainly selected by the children of wealthy families with medium-sized households or above, the equipment of the government soldiers in the Sui and Tang Dynasties was actually generally good, and they were not comparable to those of the garrisons in the Ming and Qing Dynasties and Green Camp soldiers.

According to regulations, the government soldiers need a bow, thirty arrows and an arrow bag per person, and a horizontal knife. The horizontal knife and arrow are the most basic equipment of the government soldiers, and everyone is equipped with it.

In addition, you must also bring your own logistics equipment, including whetstone, felt hat, felt bag and suitcase.

In addition, when going to the battle, each person must prepare nine dou of wheat rice and two dou of rice.

The court prepared spears and armor for the soldiers who went to war.

If you are a soldier with good conditions, you can also bring your own armor and spear.

In addition, the latest regulations are that each group of troops in the palace must bring six mules and horses to carry equipment when going to war.

These six mules are mainly used to carry equipment. In addition to personal equipment, each ten people in the gang also needs common equipment. They include two tents, iron horse bowls, chisels, radish baskets, axes, and pliers shared by ten people, as well as three pots, fire drills, salt bags, pills, and horse ropes.

The iron horse bowl is an iron lunch box that can accommodate three liters and has a thermal insulation function. You can eat hot rice in winter.

In addition to the few trunks of dry food provided by the soldiers, the food provided by the court was sometimes seized on the spot and may not have been peeled off yet. Therefore, when we went to the front line, we had to bring a pounding rice pounding so that we could not do so.

As for the fire drill, it is not a fire-making tool, but an opening. During a war, add fuel to the fire drill, ignite the fire, and then throw it directly into the enemy's formation.

In addition, each must be equipped with a pounder, which is a tool that can be used to unbox and pick the lock.

In short, the Tang Dynasty's military troops were quite rich in equipment.

The soldiers of the government received the orders to gather at the military palace, and then went to the state to gather with other summoned soldiers of the government in the state, and finally arrived at the capital or the location of the command.

After the reunion, all soldiers must be reorganized and assigned generals.

In addition to combat troops, each unit will also be equipped with logistics auxiliary soldiers in a ratio of 7 to 3. The combat troops will often be divided into cavalry and infantry. The infantry will also be divided into crossbowmen, sword and shieldmen, etc.

Because at the beginning of the founding of the country, the soldiers of the government were all assigned to the fields and could get merits when fighting, and there were few tycoons and miscellaneous taxes. The soldiers of the government were all children of rich people, so the equipment of the Guards of the early Tang Dynasty was generally very good and their combat power was generally very strong.

Not only are there a large number of cavalry, but even infantry have many horses and mules to carry baggage equipment, which has strong mobility. In terms of individual soldiers, horizontal knives and bows are standard equipment, and the ratio of long spears and large shields provided by the court is also very high. Even iron armor like Mingguang armor can reach more than 60%.

"Steam some wheat rice, everything else is ready-made." Dad said with a smile.
