Chapter 78 The soldiers are divided into two groups
Wang Ping, Su Yan, and Qu Mao rested in Yi Village for a night, and Su Yan naturally slept with Su Qiaoer in the room of the lord's hut.
Qu Mao still slept in the room directly behind the living room of the lord's cabin. It has been four or five days since I came back from purchasing in Yancheng, and Su Yan has already moved a lot of furniture into the lord's cabin.
Now when Su Yan and Su Qiaoer sleep in the room of the lord's hut, they don't have to sleep on the floor anymore.
Qu Mao still sleeps on the wooden bed obtained from opening the treasure chest, but Su Yan has furnished Qu Mao's room with two chairs, a tea table and two wardrobes.
Wang Ping originally placed Qu Mao to sleep in the lord's hut, but since Yi Village built a first-level residential building, Wang Ping moved to a first-level residential building and lived his own life.
In addition, Wang Ping told Qu Mao that when he served half a year in Yi Village, the Lord God would send his family over. His family included a sewing wife, a 12-year-old eldest son, an 8-year-old younger son and Four-year-old daughter.
Early the next morning, the army of Yi Village began to gather in the small square south of the lord's hut.
Qu Mao asked Wang Ping: "Wang Ping, what troops are you going to take with you?"
Wang Ping said with a wry smile: "My lord, the barracks haven't been built yet. If the barracks are built, my subordinates really hope that all the first-tier and second-tier soldiers who can't make up a team will be retired and turned into leaders, so that they can devote themselves wholeheartedly Territory construction.
Now we have a lot of soldiers. The number of non-soldiers is only 1,400 to 500 people, while the number of soldiers is more than 400. On average, three people need to support a soldier. There is no large-scale war at present, and the supply pressure It's not very big. Once there is a war in the future, it will be very difficult to feed such an army with such a small number of citizens. "
Qu Mao patted Wang Ping on the shoulder and said: "Now we have many soldiers, but the soldiers are not entirely professional soldiers, and they have participated in many territorial construction tasks.
Let’s do this for now, and we will discuss this issue in detail after the barracks are built.
Now, what soldiers are you going to take to hunt? "
Su Yan said: "My lord, there are now 50 princess guards stationed between the small village of Mingang and the civilian wharf, and 70 princess guards stationed between the small fisherman's village and the salt field. We have 130 princess guards left. It is believed that the princess guard can not only attack from a long range, but also guard in close combat.
Why don't we set off with these 130 princess guards, and their subordinates think that we can completely achieve our goal of searching the northeast corner of Yidao with a carpet net? What do you think?
In addition, Maffei Trani, Franklin King, and Jia Sixie brought 10 well-qualified leaders to follow the army and serve as the army's logistics auxiliary soldiers. "
Qu Mao thought for a while, and said: "130 princess guards are a bit too much, let's keep 30 princess guards on duty in Yi Village.
We just take 100 princess guards and 13 leaders to go out and explore. Of course, Su Buqing, the captain of the princess guards, and the four squadron captains Qu Bing, Jia Kui, Tang Enshuai and Liu Xi must all be brought along, and five small captains will do. "
Su Yan nodded and said: "Liu Xue, Li Ze, Nan Ren, Lu Yun, and You Zhi will lead the team with the army."
Qu Mao continued to turn around and said to Wang Ping, "Wang Ping, you will select all the other troops. I think Mingang Village has 50 princess guards, Fisherman Village has 70 princess guards, and Yi Village has 30 princess guards. Defensively enough.
I won’t bring Zhao Pan anymore, so you can.
You can also go out on two nauseous horses. Don’t be in a hurry to return to the territory every day. You can hunt south along the road from the small fisherman’s village in Xiuxiu to Mingang village. After arriving at Mingang village, empty the prey in your backpack and continue hunting southwest. , Go outside for about seven days before returning to Yi Village.
If there are too many troops to deploy, then divide into small groups and hunt with nets. "
Wang Ping said: "My lord, my subordinates will also choose a hundred-man warrior team, divide them into five small teams for hunting, and assign 20 leaders to serve as logistics auxiliary soldiers.
This kind of overall concentration and partial dispersal of hunting activities will definitely yield more abundant harvests, and it is no problem to solve the food supply of the territory for a week to half a month.
Of course, as the captain of the second-tier archer, Chafidel has to accompany the army with his subordinates. "
Qu Mao said: "It's all right, except for the princess guard, you can arrange everything, just arrange it yourself.
Pay attention to safety, hunting only, do not cause casualties to soldiers or citizens. If you find something unusual during the hunting process, remember to notify me as soon as possible. "
Wang Ping was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "My lord, although I don't know what abnormal situation will happen on Yidao, which we are already familiar with, but since my lord said so, there must be a reason for my lord.
The subordinates will pay attention, please rest assured. "
After the three people assigned the army.
Su Yan asked: "Sir, do you really not need to prepare a tent?"
Qu Mao thought for a while, and shouted to the soldiers selected by the two parts: "The hunting team and the exploration team are not allowed to bring food when they set out, and they must hunt in the wild to obtain the food that our army needs.
We don’t bring any military supplies such as marching tents. It may be more difficult to reduce the burden on the logistics and auxiliary troops accompanying the army, but all soldiers involved in the operation should overcome it.
Soldiers and citizens who are unwilling to participate can raise it now, and we will replace them immediately. "
But after waiting for three full minutes, no soldiers or leaders who were about to set off said anything, so Qu Mao said: "Since everyone agrees not to bring military rations and supplies, let's see the real chapter on Yi Island.
During the execution of the mission, all food must be obtained from the wild, and the rest at night must be completely in the wild. All soldiers and citizens must follow my orders. Now, let's go! "
Su Yan also got on the horse, and said to Su Buqing, the captain of the third-tier princess guard team: "Su team, command your army to go!"
Qu Mao got on his horse, rode his horse side by side with Su Yan, Wang Ping and Zhao Pan also got on their horses one after another, obviously Zhao Pan was the most handsome when they got on the horse.
A team of more than 200 people was divided into two groups on the square south of the lord's hut. One group headed southeast towards the small fisherman's village, while the other group led by Qu Mao and Su Yan headed towards Yidao. Go to the north mountain peak.
Wang Ping and Zhao Pan each rode a rough horse, leading the team one after the other.
On the side of Qu Mao and Su Yan, Qu Mao and Su Yan each rode a naïve horse, walking side by side behind a group of third-tier princess guards on foot.
Looking back and forth at the 100 neat princess guards, Qu Mao thought to himself: "Damn it! This is like a hero going out. I didn't feel like a hero before."
