"General." The generals wanted to say something, but Li Mu had already waved his hand to let him go down.The generals had no choice but to withdraw.
And Li Mu asked people to bring in the belongings of the captives and unfold them.There were only Li Mu and Second Lieutenant Yan Jun in the camp.
454 Interrogation
Li Mu walked to the side of Second Lieutenant Yan Jun and untied the second lieutenant.
The second lieutenant looked a little surprised.After Li Mu sat back down again, he started talking.
"What's your name?" Li Mu asked.
"You kill me, I won't tell." The second lieutenant still had a certain backbone.
"I won't kill you. Do you know who this will be?" Li Mu asked.
"I don't know." Seeing that Li Mu was kind, the second lieutenant was unwilling to refuse like this.He directly refused.
"I am General Zhao Li Muye." Li Mu said slowly.
"Ah." The second lieutenant was startled when he heard that.
"You, you are General Li Li." The second lieutenant asked in surprise.
"This general is." Li Mu looked at the second lieutenant and said.
"Little Yan Xiaowu, salute to Chief Li." He stood still and saluted.The straight military uniform looked very messy and dirty after some fighting, but the military appearance was still acceptable.
"Why are you saluting like this?" Li Mu asked while waving his hands.
The reason why Yan Xiaowu saw Li Mu saluted was because Li Mu had iron-bloodedly rectified military discipline.Qin country newspapers have already praised this point.The soldiers of the Yan Army respected such soldiers in private.
"Oh. People from Qin taught it. We all salute like this." Yan said.
"This is really strange." Li Mu said.
"There are a lot of strange things going on." Yan Xiaowu seemed very friendly with Li Mu.Perhaps this is the attraction of personality charm.
"I used to dig ginseng with the Korean people in Liaodong, and I was arrested for some reason," Yan said.
"Sit down first." Li Mu motioned.Yan Xiaowu didn't refuse either.Sit down straight away.
"Then then that." Li Mu asked.
"Later, we were driven to the opposite side of a river. There were all Qin troops there. The whole camp was very large. I found out later that it was the camp of the Qin army. It was called the Liaoyang camp. When I arrived, there were already There are [-] to [-] Yan people. There are also women." Wang Xiaowu paused.
"There, those Qin soldiers asked us to take off our clothes and take a bath. It was still a hot bath, and the water pipe was enough. You don't know, you don't need to scoop the water, and the water will stay there automatically. The place is still very clean. Later, let us Put on clothes like this." He patted his clothes and said.
"The Qin army there is very strict. There is a special place for defecation and urination. There is a special toilet. There is one for each company. People should be sent to clean it regularly. Moreover, in the Qin army base, it must be kept clean and tidy. The officers there want us officers to check and urge those soldiers to take a bath, and each of them has two sets of clothes. They must also keep clean at all times." Yan said.
Li Mu was surprised.Because of many things, he couldn't understand.But he didn't want to interrupt.
"What's more, Qin Jun's cafeteria. The meals there are self-service, with meat or beef. There are also fruits. It's absolutely enough. You can eat whatever you want with your belly open. I ate everything on the first day I went there I can’t walk anymore. I still thought at that time, if I knew it was for eating meat, I would have come earlier.” Yan said.
"By the way, sir. You eat meat." As he spoke, Yan Xiaowu took out a can of food from the things he brought in.Qin State itself did not adopt this kind of food on a large scale, because the main war ended.The military cuts again.So, the cans didn't go into the army.On the contrary, Yan Jun and those security company personnel took the lead in using it.This iron box made of tinplate was soon used for food.
It was first used in a butcher shop in Qin State, and an unknown student in Qin State invented this tin plating.Use tin sulfate to plate a layer of tin on the surface of the iron sheet.Then use a hydraulic press to stamp it into a can, fill it with food, and then use a hydraulic press to press and seal it.After experimenting, he found that such food can be preserved for up to three months.Summer meat is difficult to preserve.It must be slaughtered now.It was also after the appearance of this kind of food that the shelf life of food was suddenly increased to a long time.In order to maintain its combat power, Yan State purchased a large amount of such food.Under the big order, food factories began to appear on a large scale.This is a milestone in food history.Because of the advent of canning.Food can sit for a long time.
I saw that Yan Xiaowu deftly opened the can with a can opener, and took out the beef with a small spoon.A certain amount of condiments are added to the canned beef.Most of these condiments came from newly occupied areas.Otherwise it doesn't taste good.
Yan Xiaowu put it in front of Li Mu's table as if entertaining his own people, and then took out a biscuit wrapped in wax paper.These cookies are soda crackers.Qin Guo discovered baking soda in the process of exploring the preparation of sodium carbonate.But Qin Guo called him Xiaojian noodles.Or chaffine.The reason why Shangwen was able to make soda for Yingyu was because of the appearance of baking soda.Otherwise, he would have to find a way to obtain it himself.
"Eat, you're welcome." Yan Zhuo said while drinking water from his tin-plated iron kettle.
Li Mu watched Yan Xiaowu use those unknown things as if watching a magic trick.
"These are all from the state of Qin. This can can be stored for a long time, and I have sent several to my father. Unfortunately, my father doesn't even know how to open it." Yan Xiaowu looked at Li Mu with dismay. move, he said.
"This is beef, and there are fruits, but those things are all glass and very expensive. Those of us who are petty officials rarely have those things. However, the canned fruits are very sweet." Yan said.
"What else?" Li Mu couldn't help asking.
"Also, there are more." Yan said.
"The Qin army will pay back the money when they serve as soldiers. Give military pay. We also pay, but no one has more." Yan said.
When Li Mu heard this, he was very shocked.
"What did you say?" Li Mu asked uncertainly.
"Give out the military pay. The state of Qin pays the military pay, and we pay the same. Moreover, the military pay for soldiers, non-commissioned officers, and officers is different." Yan said.
"A second lieutenant like me is given less. Those experienced non-commissioned officers, the chief, are more than us. Especially the chief non-commissioned officer. They are given as much as our regimental commander." Yan said.
"Then how did you become an officer?" Li Mu asked.
"I, I know Braille and passed the preliminary examination, so I was selected to be an officer. Otherwise, I'm just a stupid soldier." Yan said.
In this way, Yan Xiaowu told about his training experience in the Qin Army barracks.Li Mu also listened carefully.He also took the initiative to inquire about what he didn't understand.And Yan Xiaowu seemed to be bragging about nothing in the army.He kept saying what Li Mu wanted to hear the most.And Li Mu slowly revealed the specific situation of Qin's current army.In his mind, it began to slowly emerge.
455 Inviting Captives to Be Instructors
The conversation between Li Mu and Yan Xiaowu lasted all afternoon.Yan Xiaowu also told what he saw and heard without reservation.Even the hobbies of the head of the regiment and the aggressiveness of the female soldiers were revealed.
This naturally includes how the Qin army trained the new Yan army.The method opened Li Mu's horizons.From Yan Xiaowu's conversation, we learned that Qin State wanted to quickly train Yan State's new army.A military academy, a non-commissioned officer academy, was established.The officers and non-commissioned officers of the Qin Army were sent to the soldiers of Yan State to act as temporary instructors.Officers are responsible for how all soldiers are trained.Non-commissioned officers carry out some specific training programs.
The backbone of the army is the officers who graduated from these military academies.The non-commissioned officer wraps the backbone like the muscles of the human body.And those ordinary soldiers are like the flesh and skin of the human body.In this way, it is built up layer by layer.so.The Yan army can quickly form combat effectiveness.
It is known from Yan Xiaowu Middle School that the Qin Army also specially printed and distributed soldier manuals, officer manuals, and tactical manuals.These manuals are mandatory courses for officers.And how those soldiers train.in the manual.Among the seized materials, there was only one soldier's manual.The rest were not seen.
At the same time, Li Mu also learned that the Qin Army adopted a new organization, squads, platoons, companies, battalions, regiments, brigades, and divisions.And the division is very detailed.Each stage is accompanied by non-commissioned officers.Non-commissioned officers are experienced veterans.In this way, the backbone is difficult to be broken up.In addition, there is a detailed military rank system.For example, soldiers are divided into privates and privates, and non-commissioned officers are divided into corporals, sergeants, and sergeants.Sergeant major also has first class, second class and so on.The division of officers is unusually detailed.Lieutenant, school officer, general officer.These sound.These are all unprecedented new tricks.
Not only that.From Yan Xiaowu High School, he also learned about an organization that interested him very much.staff.This is a group of middle- and lower-level officers organized to provide marching routes for superior officers.Logistical supplies.So much so that they are involved in the planning of the battlefield.This is also the reason why Zhao Jun deliberately ambushed and failed at the beginning.
After finishing talking with Yan Xiaowu.Li Mu summarized and sorted out what he heard from these conversations.
It was night now.Li Mu couldn't sleep.He has a lot of emotions.The reason why the country of Yan was able to change so much at once.All with the help of Qin State.Li Mu didn't know what was the connection between the two.But one thing is very clear, that is, the strength of Qin State has far surpassed that of Zhao State.Even with a general like himself.It is also difficult to resist a country with huge strength like Qin.If it is really according to what Prime Minister Qin said, Qin will not come out for a few years, then when the time comes, the six countries will unite, and I am afraid that they will not be Qin's opponent.This is a disparity in strength.This gap is no longer something a famous general can fill.
If Li Mu wants the army to keep up with the pace of the Qin army, it must be supported by strong strength.However, this is precisely Zhao Jun's current shortcoming.It is impossible for Zhao Guo to have the strength of Qin Guo.
If you can't keep up, you have to keep up as soon as possible.Weapons can be repeatedly asked Zhao Wang to solve.But the training of soldiers must also be planned in advance.Think here.Li Mu decides what must be changed.Think about it.Li Mu came up with a bold decision.Please take prisoners as instructors.So Li Mu ordered overnight.Capture more Yan Army officers and non-commissioned officers alive.
Let those officers.The non-commissioned officer used the results of Qin's training on Zhao Jun.
In order to quell dissatisfaction in the army.Li Mu personally persuaded the dissatisfied generals in the military tent.
"A few days ago, I interrogated the captives and learned that the reason why the Yan army increased its combat power so quickly was all due to the Qin army." Li Mu said slowly.
"Damn it. Qin dog." The generals cursed angrily.But Li Mu just stretched out his hand to signal.
