Father, I really don’t want to be the emperor

Chapter 457 Direct Lineage

So this time when he came to Linzhou, Ning Fan certainly had to take a look at his direct team.

When Ning Fan came to Linzhou, it happened to be morning time. The soldiers in the military camp were training in the morning, and the shouts of killing were loud. Ning Fan stood on the hillside in the distance and looked out, and he could really feel the energy of these soldiers. God is completely different.

Everyone has a fierce energy in their body, and they are fighting for their lives, which is the posture of a desperate Saburo.

"How is the food in the military camp now? How many days can the brothers have a meal of meat?"

Ning Fan wanted to ask all these questions clearly before entering the military camp.

Of course, only Chen Yuanqing knows these issues best, because he is the leader of the Qingzhou camp, and hundreds of thousands of dragon scale troops are under Chen Yuanqing's command.

“It used to take three days to have one meal of meat, but now I have meat every day and I’m full every time.”

Chen Yuanqing opened his mouth and smiled.

Ning Fan was a little surprised. Meat was a scarce material in this era. It was not unusual for soldiers in the military camp to want to eat meat. But now Chen Yuanqing said that these soldiers can eat meat every day. Ning Fan was very curious as he could eat meat every meal.

"Have you forgotten, Your Majesty? We have caught a lot of locusts recently. After drying and roasting, these locusts have become dry food in our military camp. Everyone is quite happy to eat them."

Chen Yuanqing finally revealed the answer to the mystery, and Ning Fan couldn't help laughing when he heard what Chen Yuanqing said.

However, Ning Fan's face turned serious while he was smiling. He reached out and patted Chen Yuanqing's shoulder: "We must treat these brothers well. There are many of these brothers who followed us to conquer the country with one sword and one shot. When the conditions are better in the future, We must make all the brothers in the Dragon Scale Army enjoy the spicy food."

Ning Fan said this from the bottom of his heart, and it was also what he really thought about. A large part of this Dragon Scale Army were children from the three major farms back then, and they were also the backbone of the current Dragon Scale Army.

The Jin Yiwei, which was born out of the Dragon Scale Army back then, is now a trump card in Ning Fan's hand, so Ning Fan values ​​​​the Dragon Scale Army very much.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. If you leave the Dragon Scale Army to me, I will definitely take good care of these brothers. Let them eat and drink well, practice their skills well, and guard the country for Your Majesty."

Chen Yuanqing is not as careless as before, and he is still very careful in his words on key issues.

Ning Fan was a little disappointed with Chen Yuanqing's changes, but he was also very pleased. A person always has to grow.

The price of maturity is the loss of innocence, and this is a fact that no one can change.

At almost noon, Ning Fan entered the Linzhou Camp, while the brothers in the Linzhou Camp were having lunch.

When Ning Fan entered the camp, all the soldiers stood up with a roar. All the soldiers knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Ning Fan without any instructions.

"I'm sorry to disturb everyone's meal. Everyone is open to eating. In the afternoon, I will buy five thousand pigs and give them teeth as a sacrifice."

Ning Fan waved his hands towards the soldiers, and those soldiers showed excited expressions on their faces. You must know that many veterans of the Dragon Scale Army know Ning Fan and have seen Ning Fan in person. Seeing him again now The excitement in this legendary emperor's heart was uncontrollable.

Ning Fan glanced at the soldiers' dining table, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart. These soldiers who fought in the north and south all looked old, which shows that they put in a lot of effort in training and working.

Their hands were full of calluses and cracks, but they ate happily.

There was a dustpan on each dining table, containing a lot of black-faced steamed buns. These steamed buns were made from various grains and were difficult to eat, but the soldiers ate them deliciously.

"Your Majesty, brothers are working very hard in the fields now. We can work when we pick up the hoe, and we can fight when we put down the hoe."

After leaving the camp, Chen Yuanqing took Ning Fan to the farming area.

There are tens of thousands of acres of fertile farmland here, and at a glance, it’s green as far as the eye can see.

However, Ning Fan found that the crops were very flat, and the boundaries between each piece of land were not very clear. These crops were very fertile and grew well. They were almost not affected by the locust plague, and future harvests were guaranteed.

Arriving at the soldiers' barracks, before Ning Fan entered, he smelled a stench that towered into the sky. The soldiers in the messy barracks hardly kept their house in order.

Lifting the quilt, Ning Fan could even see the bedbugs on the bed board. Seeing this scene, Ning Fan frowned, while Chen Yuanqing looked embarrassed.

"Let's do this. I'll give you one month. I will send someone to check within one month. If the housekeeping is not done well, I will deduct half a year's salary from you."

Ning Fan was not angry, but his light words made Chen Yuanqing look embarrassed this time.

As a general commanding an army, Chen Yuanqing usually had a very high status, but at this time, he was scolded by Ning Fan. Like his grandson, he could not even raise his head.

"Bring me a clean quilt and I will demonstrate it. I will follow this standard in the future."

Ning Fan ordered to the people around him, and soon a quilt was brought over, and after Ning Fan spread the quilt flatly on the bed, he started the astonishing operation.

I saw Ning Fan smoothing out the messy quilt bit by bit, and then began to fold the quilt. When Ning Fan finished folding it, everyone was shocked.

The originally messy quilt was actually folded into tofu pieces by Ning Fan, and it was extremely smooth. It looked neat and angular. Even Chen Yuanqing's eyes widened with disbelief on his face.

"After a month, every soldier's quilt will be folded like this, and the entire barracks will be spotless and disinfected regularly with quicklime. Otherwise, if a plague breaks out in the barracks, no one will be able to bear the losses."

Ning Fan looked at Chen Yuanqing with a serious face, but at this time, Chen Yuanqing did not dare to say anything at all.

He had been shocked by Ning Fan's hand in folding the quilt just now, and the eyes he looked at Ning Fan were full of fear and admiration.

"Folding quilts is not a waste of time. Folding quilts is the most important part of the military. The purpose is to train the obedience and uniformity of these soldiers. What we want is a unified team, not a messy team. We must make all the soldiers look the same and have the same face.”

In just a few words, Ning Fan handed over the core ideas of modern military to Chen Yuanqing.

As the saying goes, it depends on the individual when the master leads him to practice. Whether Chen Yuanqing can understand the essence depends on his own destiny.
