When Li Shui saw Ying Zheng speaking, he ignored Wang Wan and continued: "Your Majesty, what I just said is to drink in moderation."
"Moderate drinking can relax your muscles and activate your blood circulation, making you more energetic."
"Those who serve in the army, whether training or fighting, suffer higher mental fatigue than ordinary people. Drinking moderate amounts of alcohol can relieve fatigue."
"Especially in the severe cold areas of the north, soldiers who drink moderate amounts of alcohol can resist the cold and improve their physical flexibility."
"In this way, not only will it not cause the drunkard described by the Prime Minister, but it will also greatly improve the combat effectiveness of our Great Qin soldiers."
Ying Zheng nodded with satisfaction, looking deeply into the distance.
Ying Zheng is often anxious, worried about what will happen to Great Qin one day when he achieves enlightenment and ascends to heaven.
The Qin Dynasty conquered the world by force, and the combat effectiveness of the army was the top priority.
Even if the future descendants are virtuous monarchs, if the combat effectiveness of the army gradually declines, no matter how good the monarch is, it will be difficult to maintain the vast territory of Qin.
After Ying Zheng listened to Li Shui's words, he imagined that the army of Qin would become stronger and stronger in the future, and that Qin would be peaceful forever, and he felt more and more reassured.
Ying Zheng looked at Li Shui and said, "Huai Guzi, prepare this wine carefully. If it is ready, send it to the palace as soon as possible."
Li Shui smiled and said to Ying Zheng: "Your Majesty, this wine has achieved initial results and will be developed soon."
Ying Zheng nodded.
Ying Zheng looked at Wang Wan and said, "Prime Minister, do you have other matters to discuss?"
Wang Wan felt very uncomfortable. He didn't expect that such a big thing as forming a clique for personal gain and sabotaging military aircraft would be covered up by Huaiguzi with just a few words.
Wang Wan felt very unwilling and raised her hand to Ying Zhenggong and said, "Your Majesty, let's not talk about whether this wine can enhance the combat effectiveness of our Qin soldiers as Huai Guzi said."
"Let's just say that everyone's drinking capacity is different. Some people get drunk after one drink, while others get drunk after three drinks."
"If everyone falsely reports their drinking capacity, it will cause the soldiers to drink too much, which will be dangerous if there is a war."
At this time, Li Xin was not happy after hearing this and stood up.
Li Xin remained silent on other matters and could not intervene. However, Li Xin still had the right to speak on the military matters.
Li Xin said slowly: "Why, does the Prime Minister also know everything about the military camp?"
Wang Wan curled her lips and thought to herself: This Li Xin, who usually doesn't talk and is unknown, is now very prominent to you.
Wang Wan knew that Li Xin wanted to make things difficult for him, but as a dignified prime minister, he was at a disadvantage in front of Li Shui.
Never lose face in front of Li Xin.
Wang Wan said: "When it comes to military matters, I know a little bit about it, and I'm not much worse than General Li."
When Li Xin heard this, he smiled and said: "Well, there will be training at the military camp in the south of the city tomorrow, and Prime Minister Wang will be invited to preside over it."
When Wang Wan heard this, he said, Li Xin, are you serious?
Wang Wan frowned and said, "I've been feeling unwell recently and it's hard for me to walk too far."
Li Xin sneered and said: "You don't need the Prime Minister to walk. I can send someone to carry the Prime Minister. As long as the Prime Minister can appear in the military camp and only knows how to drill."
Wang Wan curled her lips and said nothing, thinking: Li Xin, you are a common man, you really learned bad things from Huai Guzi, and now you have learned to be polite and unforgiving.
Ying Zheng glanced at Li Xin and said, "Li Xin, when it comes to business, don't talk nonsense."
Li Xin lowered his head and responded.
He slowly said to Wang Wan: "I just know that the Prime Minister likes to hear stories and only knows a little bit."
Without waiting for Wang Wan to speak, Li Xin continued: "Soldiers can drink according to their daily rations."
"The Prime Minister must know that food and grass are the most important thing when marching and fighting."
Wang Wan said disdainfully: "That's natural."
Li Xin continued: "Excuse me, Prime Minister, how do you calculate the amount of grain and grass required?"
Li Xin knew that in order to avoid embarrassment, Wang Wan would say irrelevant things and answer questions that were not asked even if he did not understand.
Therefore, before Wang Wan could speak, Li Xin continued: "If it's like what the prime minister just said, some soldiers will be full with just one bowl of corn porridge, and some soldiers will have to drink 50,000 bowls."
"If everyone wanted to eat more, wouldn't the food and grass be used up before the enemy could be seen?"
Wang Wan thought thoughtfully.
Li Xin continued: "So, in order to avoid waste and ensure sufficient food and grass, we chose an intermediate number."
"With three bowls as the upper limit, no matter whether the soldier can eat five bowls or ten bowls, he will only be given three bowls at most."
"Calculate the amount of food and grass required based on a maximum of three bowls of food per person."
"In this way, we can ensure the safety of logistical supplies during marches and battles."
"I wonder if the Prime Minister has any opinions on this?"
Wang Wan frowned and said, "This can indeed ensure the orderly supply of food and grass."
Li Xin smiled and continued: "Similarly, in the future, for low-alcohol wine, some soldiers can drink only one cup, and some can drink three or five cups."
"You can also choose an intermediate number, with three drinks as the upper limit. If you are a weak drinker, you can drink one drink, and if you are a good drinker, you can only drink three drinks at most."
Wang Wan said: "What if the drinker is poor and gets drunk after just one drink?"
Li Xin smiled, knowing that Wang Wan would ask this question, so he said: "The soldiers led by me, Li Xin, have strict military discipline. No matter if someone drinks one drink or three drinks, if he gets into trouble because of drinking, he will be dealt with strictly under the leadership of the Qin Dynasty. He will never Appeasement.”
Wang Wan sneered and said: "Having said that, if the enemy attacks and the soldiers drink and make mistakes, it may be too late if you want to take strict measures afterwards."
Li Xin said: "It would have been better if I didn't drink before the war."
Wang Wan sneered: "Will the enemy tell you the specific time of the sneak attack?"
Li Xin blushed angrily and snorted: "You!"
Wang Wan saw that the stupid Li Xin was choked by her and didn't know what to say. The discomfort she felt just now made her feel more comfortable instantly.
Li Shui stood up, and Wang Wan subconsciously hid for half a step. He was worried that Li Shui would do something wrong again and slap himself.
I live a long life, so I still need face.
Li Shui smiled and said slowly: "Brother Li means that soldiers usually drink a little to relax their muscles and activate their blood to resist the wind and cold. However, the battlefield is changing rapidly, so the limit is three cups, so we can arrange it flexibly."
Li Xin nodded hurriedly and said, "That's what I mean."
Li Shui continued: "Besides, even if you are greedy, you may not make a mistake as the prime minister expected."
"Alcohol has the effect of numbing people's pain. The alcohol content in low-alcohol wine is just within the acceptable range of ordinary people."
"If you drink low-alcohol alcohol, you won't feel any pain in a short period of time if you are struck by a sword."
"Also, alcohol stimulates the human brain, and perhaps during the battle, the soldiers will be stronger and more courageous than usual."
"With all these things, how can it be that our country, the Qin Dynasty, is not prosperous and the country is peaceful and the people are safe?"
Li Xin burst into tears after hearing this, and almost clapped his hands and cheered for Li Shui.
Ying Zheng nodded, it seemed that the wine was very good.
Ying Zheng looked around and said slowly: "Do the other ladies have any objections to the development of this wine?"
Everyone was silent. Even those who couldn't stand Li Shui wanted to speak. They opened their mouths and looked up to see the Prime Minister's face. After thinking about it, they decided to forget it. Why bother to go against Huaiguzi.
