All Hail Cousin Brother

"The Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic" records, "The five grains are for nourishment, the five fruits are for assistance, the five livestock are for benefit, and the five vegetables are for supplementation."

Yu Youyao couldn't help but think, if the dietary advantages of Dazhou and Beidi could be combined, what would Beidi have to fear?

The rapid development of animal husbandry has greatly enriched the meat supply in Liaodong. The imperial court also has a lot of meat supplies. In addition, a large number of prey hunted in winter can be used as supplementary food to supply the entire army.

That's why she dared to make this suggestion.

But the military supply was so important that she did not make any announcement in advance.

Instead, use the workshop to create hoards.

"In addition, the Di people made fresh milk into dry powder for the convenience of carrying. It was inconvenient to eat during the war. They put the dry milk food into a water bag and washed it with water. The dry milk powder was light and easy to carry. Even if we bring more, it won’t affect the battle, and we can give it a try.”

On the battlefield, the rations carried by each soldier are very limited. The main reason is that carrying too much will affect the coordination and flexibility of the body and affect the combat effectiveness. Dry milk powder can solve this problem very well.

It can be seen that it is not without reason that the Di people were able to roam the grasslands and eye the Great Zhou.

In view of the fact that increasing the supply of dairy military rations will be more conducive to replenishing physical strength on the battlefield, it is not trivial. Yu Youyao also suggested adding and changing some supply lines based on dairy workshops.

There was fierce opposition at the time.

"I have no objection to increasing the supply of dairy rations, but adding or changing supply lines is a matter of no small importance. Even His Highness cannot make this decision easily."

"In every word and deed of the Princess Chang, she has great respect for the Northern Barbarians. She also puts the Northern Barbarians' things on my table, which is simply ridiculous. I will leave it here today. I would rather starve to death than eat. What northern barbarians eat.”

"The Northern Barbarians drink their hair and drink their blood. What good are the things of the Northern Barbarians? It's worthy of Princess Chang to spend so much time. Has Princess Chang forgotten how General Mingwei died? How many warriors have we had in the Zhou Dynasty over the years? Are they dead?" Aren’t you ashamed of being under the iron cavalry of the Northern Barbarians?”

"The Princess Chang is talking about the advantages of Beidi here. Does she think that I, the Great Zhou Dynasty, are not as good as the Northern Barbarians? I, the man of the Great Zhou Dynasty, eat chaffy vegetables and go hungry. For so many years, I still keep the Northern Barbarians outside the Xiaoyu Pass. !”

"I admit that Princess Chang has done a lot for the Northern Territory in the past three years. Like the common people, we are very grateful to Princess Chang. However, marching and fighting are men's business. Princess Chang should not get involved. That’s great.”

"The three obediences and four virtues of my daughter's family are the example of my daughter. I am afraid that the princess's actions may not be suspicious of Si Chen..."

"..."

There was a commotion in the meeting hall.

Butler Wen's face darkened, and it was His Highness's wish to let the princess sit in charge of Prince Wumu's Mansion. Prince Wumu's Mansion and the prefecture's Yamen operated in a complementary manner, so nothing could go wrong.

But these people are arrogant, despise the princess, and openly scream in front of the princess. Is this because the princess is worried about His Highness and does not dare to do anything to them? !

Who gave them the courage? !

Yu Youyao did not feel embarrassed. Without waiting for Butler Wen to get angry, he called the palace guards, ordered a few of the people who made the most noise, and ordered:

"Drag them down,

Send it to the front line and talk on paper. It won't work for me. Don't tell me the big principles of three obedience and four virtues. I don't want you to think it. I want me to feel it. I think this method is feasible. You have reason to hold it in my mind. In the future, Come back from the battlefield alive and come back to argue with me. "

The thundering method was so horrifying that the faces of all the military advisers and staff turned pale, and they knelt on the ground, but could not make Yu Youyao change his mind.

The opponents were dragged out, and the remaining scholars looked at each other. They always felt that the Princess Shaoyi in front of them was different from what they had heard.

It’s an illusion!

Yu Youyao glanced at everyone present, and said warmly: "You have never been to the battlefield, and you don't know how difficult it is to get supplies on the battlefield. To say that you will never eat Beidi's food is pure nonsense. Soldiers have won the battle, but they also have to clean up. Is it wrong to count the supplies on the battlefield and use the Di people’s supplies to strengthen one’s own strength?”

"King Wu Mu even personally led his troops deep into the grasslands to plunder the Di people's supplies. No matter whose it belongs to, if we eat it, it belongs to us. If we kill the enemy, we will make a profit. If we walk out of the battlefield alive, that's it. Victory, materials on the battlefield are life, and only when soldiers have a full stomach can they win the battle."

"It is also a fact that Beidi has a strong army and strong horses. We will not belittle ourselves, emulate others' ambitions, and destroy our own prestige, but we must also learn from the strengths of others, step by step close the gap with others, and strengthen ourselves."

"During the pre-Qin Dynasty, the Xiongnu who once roamed the grasslands and were arrogant were extinct, Loulan was also extinct, and the Turks were also extinct. However, we Han people have survived the inheritance. Why? Just because we are tolerant and show great tolerance. , allowing the cultures of all ethnic groups to contend in the Han Dynasty, and Baiyue, which once posed a threat to the Qin Dynasty's million-strong army, was conquered and assimilated by us and returned to Han rule. Isn't this enough to explain all this? "

These words made many people present look ashamed.

They claimed to be talented people, so they were recruited by Prince Wu Mu's Palace and had to be loyal to Prince Wu Mu's Palace. However, because the Princess Princess was born as a daughter, uuReading became prejudiced against her. They were arrogant and looked down upon the Princess Princess. , but in terms of the size of the pattern, the breadth of vision, the breadth of mind, and the uniqueness of mind, they are far inferior.

After this episode, all the military advisers and staff present calmed down and began to face up to the various suggestions put forward by Princess Shao Yichang. They conducted intense discussions to add, change, and optimize the military supply lines to make them more convenient and faster. , the mobility is also stronger.

After three days of this, the reforms in military supplies were also formally established.

Using the delivery of the first batch of military supplies as a test, through the speed and concealment of delivery, it was found that this solution is safe and reliable, and the operation of supplies is also more convenient and faster.

Material resources were continuously transported to the front line and quickly promoted in the army. At first, the soldiers were not used to the food of the Di people. When the supply became large, it was inevitable that some people would complain.

It didn't take long for the soldiers to discover that cheese, horse milk wine, goat milk wine, and dry milk powder were more convenient and faster than the usual pasta in restoring physical strength, and they accepted them well.

Everyone admired the princess so much that they fell into submission.

Even Yin Huaixi didn't expect that the little girl would hold back such a big move after returning to Xiangping. When the combat power of both sides is equal, the use of tactics and the speed of the soldiers' physical recovery will determine the outcome. The essential.

Yin Huaixi knew early on that the physical recovery speed of the Zhou soldiers on the battlefield was slower than that of the Di people, so they always defended passively and rarely took the initiative to attack.
