After entering a circle of arsenals, the Tianxiong Army in the school grounds has completely changed. It used to be a group of idlers who looked like a grass-roots team, but now they are elites armed to the teeth, with at least one set of armor on them.
Although this armor is not the most luxurious infantry armor of the Western Army, it still implements the concept of protection in place. The whole body is first lined with a layer of leather armor on the inside, and then a bright mail armor on the outside. The road made a swishing noise, it was like a moving castle.
Song Youcai and others did not participate in the robbery. They were busy adjusting various supplies and arranging personnel plans for each unit.
When they returned to the school grounds and saw everyone covered in clothing, they inquired and learned that there was a good thing about pie in the sky. They were so anxious that it was too late to slap their thighs, but they also hoped that the brothers down here would be well equipped. a little.
Liang Chuan has been working hard, which is something that everyone can see. He even eats as much as he can so that everyone can eat well, so that they can have strength.
Needless to say, these equipments are standard equipment with the characteristics of the imperial court. No matter how ordinary people touch it, they will not get any good results. Especially these armors, if you put a few pairs of them at home, it is no different than putting a few coffins.
Many people have never touched such a good armor, let alone put it bluntly. Although it weighs more than ten pounds, they can obviously feel that with this thing on their body, their confidence is not ordinary, and their voices are louder when they roar. Quite a few.
Someone directly picked up the sword and tried it. The tip of the sword was pierced into the armor. Sparks jumped and a mosquito bite was felt on the body. There was no pain at all!
Good guy!
It's like this group of people used to be walk-ins, wearing rags and ragged clothes, and no one could detect them. Then they were dressed as gods, and their temperament suddenly changed. They turned into a group of tigers and wolves. Even their eyes changed. It felt no longer possible. Give them some horses, and they will dare to go to Bianjing and pull the emperor off his horse!
Liang Chuan was very happy to see such a scene. The more ferocious these people were, the better for him. After spending such a huge price, he didn't want to raise a bunch of losers!
Song Tiegen, Song Sizheng, Song Jun and others are arranging their men to carry a large bucket of things. It seems that the weight is not too light.
Liang Chuan felt strange when he saw it. What was in the bucket?
"What's in it?"
Song Tiegen was a little embarrassed, scratched his head and replied: "No... nothing?"
The more this happened, the more strange it seemed to Liang Chuan: "Open it and take a look!"
Several people looked at each other and hesitated in their hand movements.
Liang Chuan opened the lid of the bucket and saw that it was a big bucket of pickled vegetables!
"what are these?"
"These are the pickles we bought on the street, and we are going to take them to the ship to eat!" Since Song Tiegen was seen by Liang Chuan, he did not hide it anymore. The person who opened the other bucket turned out to be at the top of Dingchuan City. Liang Chuan can't swallow the big cake pot helmet!
When you put your hand on it, the Guokui Cake is still warm!
Liang Chuan was a little confused at this and asked: "I have asked Su Wei to prepare a large amount of food and dried meat, enough for thousands of us. Doesn't the meat taste delicious, so you have to eat this stuff?"
Song Tiegen was scolded by Liang Chuan. When Song Youcai heard the noise, he came over and asked, "What happened to my boss?"
Liang Chuan was not unhappy, he just wanted to understand the reason.
Song Youcai, Song Tiegen and most of the brothers in the Tianxiong Army can be said to have been through life and death, and they are closer than their own brothers. After taking a look at the contents of the bucket, you will know what it is for!
"None of our brothers have ever been to the sea. Once we get on the boat, we are in a state of confusion. We don't know when we will be able to return to the shore. This is not because landlubbers are afraid of water, but they are even more afraid of being hungry when the time comes, so they pack these things!"
Liang Chuan sighed and said, "It's not that I won't let you bring it. If you want to bring it, you should bring some good things. What's the nutrition of just eating these things?"
Several people couldn't help but blush when they heard this, but their hearts felt warm. Liang Chuan was never stingy, and he met their needs when it came to food and use. This was true for the equipment, and even more so for the food.
It was Liang Chuan's style that made everyone work desperately for him!
Song Tiegen and others are all honest people, so honest that they don't have any scheming. Others secretly bring food, or some wine, or at least delicacies. They can give teeth as a sacrifice at sea. This group of people makes Liang Chuan embarrassed. He scolded them for eating Guokui with pickled vegetables. It was really hard for them to eat it!
"My boss, you don't know something. When I was on Shicang Mountain, there was a man in the village who had been living at sea for decades. I often listened to him talk about things at sea. I didn't understand it, but after listening to him, , People who live at sea for a long time will get a disease!"
When Song Tiegen mentioned this, everyone pricked up their ears and paid attention. The sea was full of all kinds of unknown species. Not to mention Liangchuan, it was full of fear for inland people like them.
Only those who have experienced death know how to cherish life, and those who have fought in a war know how to make adequate preparations before war.
Veterans like Song Tiegen may go on an expedition for the last time, so they must be more cautious than anyone else.
Liang Chuan knew as soon as he heard that this matter was not simple, so he asked, "What's the explanation?"
Song Tiegen felt terrible when he thought about it, and said seriously: "At first, a person's teeth will become loose, and then the mouth will start to bleed. In severe cases, the feet will look like frogs, and the legs will turn into a circle. In the end, the person will be useless." You can only throw it into the sea to feed the fish..."
Liang Chuan recognized it. This was scurvy, one of the most difficult diseases at sea, but it was not terrible. It was ridiculous to say that you could get rid of this disease by eating some fruit.
Song Tiegen's description made everyone tremble. How could a person get this disease at sea? It still looks like a frog. Is it a curse from the sea god?
For a moment, everyone present couldn't help but feel their hearts twitching. Why is there still such a terrible disease? Can it be saved?
Song Tiegen was like a little heavenly master possessing him at this time. He also wanted to play a little mysterious and said carefully: "I asked at that time if there was any way to get this disease. The neighbor also said that it is very simple. Just take some precautions. As long as we keep eating the pickles made by our hometown on the road, we will definitely not get this disease!"
This was a bit nonsense. Everyone was a little worried at first, but when they heard that eating pickles can cure diseases, everyone rolled their eyes.
Song Youcai scolded directly: "Old Tie, do you think this pickle is an elixir? Can it cure all diseases?"
Song Tiegen was obviously not the kind of person who made nonsense. When he saw everyone's expressions, he immediately showed disbelief on his face. He himself was a little anxious!
"Can I still lie to you? We haven't eaten enough pickles. I've hated this stuff for a long time, but that's what people said. I don't dare not believe it. I still remembered it at the time. They were poisonous to the sky. oath!"
Song Youcai looked at Song Tiegen's solemn expression and it didn't look like he was telling lies. He felt a little embarrassed for a moment and could only look at Liang Chuan. Liang Chuan was well-informed and should be able to understand.
Liang Chuan said, "Did your neighbor tell you anything about how to cure this disease?"
Song Tiegen nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, yes, he also said that if there are soybeans, eating some bean sprouts on the ship can also cure the disease, but few people use this method!"
Liang Chuan wondered: "Why, I heard that most people use this method?"
"This method is said to require a lot of beans, and the bean sprouts will not grow so quickly. It is inconvenient to eat. The most troublesome thing is that this method consumes water. There is already little clean water on the ship, and it will be even less if it is used to grow bean sprouts!"
He even knows how to grow bean sprouts. It seems that what Song Tiegen said is not false!
Sprouting bean sprouts is definitely real, and the practicality of this method must be known by these sailors through practice. Are there vitamins in the pickles? In addition to a little more salt, there must be a lot of them. Liang Chuan thought about it. When Zheng He went to the West, it was possible for a ship as big as bean sprouts to sprout. How could an ordinary merchant ship sprout bean sprouts every day?
If you just bring a few buckets of pickles, you can save the time of cooking every day, and you can also keep your body healthy. Why do Chinese people like to bring water and food from their hometown to eat when they leave their homeland? It’s because eating these things can make people Not acclimatized.
There are many reasons for acclimatization. Lack of certain nutrients is also acclimatization!
Liang Chuan said to Song Youcai: "Go to the port and ask the old sailors on the ship to see if this is really true in their circles. If it is true, it seems that we really need to prepare more pickles! "
When Song Tiegen saw that Liang Chuan believed his statement, he immediately said: "Let me just say that my boss is open-minded. It's not like you are playing the piano to an ox! When you eat pickles, you have to eat them with a pot and helmet to be full! My boss, you said that you collect dried meat, that's not practical. , How many of us are there? If we eat meat every day, can we pull it out on the boat?"
Everyone laughed. Liang Chuan had never thought of this point of view. He just wanted to let the brothers eat better. Eating meat is much better than eating cakes, but he never thought that just eating meat would ruin the digestive system! The result is like the nomads in the north. They only have meat to eat, and will die after eating it! The reason is not that the digestive system will be completely clogged with fat!
It’s not hard to ask about eating pickles!
Song Youcai learned a lot after asking about it!
It turns out that in the southeastern coastal area, if people don't eat vegetables or fruits on sea ships, their gums will bleed, and then the bones will become soft, and finally they will become frog legs. This is no longer a secret, and people have long found a corresponding method. !
It is true that one method is to grow bean sprouts, but there is also a simpler method, which is to bring a bucket of pickles on board to eat, or even some dried fruits, such as dried plums, dried plums and candied fruits, which can be eaten on board. prevent the occurrence of this strange disease. If that doesn't work, just bring a sea hook and fish some kelp from the sea to take it on board. Eating more of this stuff can also prevent the occurrence of strange diseases!
Liang Chuan learned another lesson. Naval battles are different from land battles. If you don't prepare well before the battle, you may really be finished when you get to the sea without being attacked by the enemy!
