"Don't be careless about this. Let the old man know that it's not good. You know what the women in the back house look like. If this news is leaked, I will push you!"

I ran to western Yunnan and let the old man know that 80% of them were not good. Most of the women in the back house would come out to stop them. They didn't know the foundation, and it was not impossible for them to help the more they helped.

"knew!"

Ding Taichen responded, but Xu Ziwei, who was following Yang Meng, even had the intention of hanging himself. In the past two years, Xu Ziwei has not endured much hardship. He asked him to run to western Yunnan. It is not impossible to die of exhaustion.

"You are mourning! You don't have to run. Just walk slowly with your horse supplies and go straight to Tengyue Town, waiting for the Third Master there! Maybe the Third Master will arrive before you! Follow Taichen to prepare!"

Seeing Xu Ziwei's mourning look, Yang Meng had nothing to say, and sent Xu Ziwei and Ding Taichen away in a few words. Yang Meng followed the guards around him to learn to gait the leggings.

"San Master, the straw sandals are ready, can you give it a try?"

I tried some rough straw sandals. Although they felt not as good as leather boots, they were still breathable.

He tightened the hemp rope behind the upper, walked a few steps, and jumped a few times. The newly woven straw sandals were a little hard, but overall they felt they were still working. After the trial, Yang Meng took off the straw sandals and started to disassemble them.

"I don't really know my feet. I'll add some cloth strips on my big thumb so I'll follow my feet. The upper is a little soft and there's more hemp rope. The same is true for the sole and upper interface. The sole is a bit hard. Put two layers of cotton on it. As I said, try another pair!"

After trying the straw sandals he designed, Yang Meng was not idle either. He tried the traditional straw sandals again. This thing is better than the heels heels he designed, but most of his feet are exposed. In the rain forest, it is easily invaded by snakes and insects. Some snakes and insects in the rain forest are poisonous, and marching is not hunting by hunters. Speed ​​is the first priority. These traditional straw sandals are not as practical as themselves in the rain forest.

"What are we in our farm?"

I had to wait for a while for straw sandals, and I had never asked me to do things like backpacks before, so I would definitely not be able to carry supplies and use bags. When things were about to come, Yang Meng was a little busy.

"Bamboo basket!"

The manager who followed Yang Meng without hesitation reported an object that made Yang Meng frown a little.

"Take it and take a look! There are also things that hold water together."

After Yang Meng's instructions, the managers were quick to get their legs. In the blink of an eye, there were several bamboo baskets, skins, bamboo tubes, silver and copper kettles and other things.

When fighting in the rainforest, water is also the key. Yang Meng did not look at the bamboo basket first, but picked up the utensils for holding water. The skins were used to hold wine. If the water was filled, it would easily deteriorate. This thing was abandoned by Yang Meng at the first time.

Those copper and silver kettles are time-consuming things, and bamboo tubes are undoubtedly the best choice. A piece of bamboo tubes and a wooden plug, even Qihuoer, these bamboo tubes in Wuzhuang are also meticulously crafted and carved handles are available.

Yang Meng was not looking at the decoration, but whether it was capacity and portability. A bamboo kettle that was one foot long and the thickness of a calf could probably hold a liter of water, and the amount was almost enough.

"For fifty bamboo kettles like this, prepare cloth bags, and hang them on your body!"

When it comes to use, there is nothing left, there is no armed belt, and there is no place to hang the kettle, so I can only get a cloth bag and hang it on my body first.

After giving these instructions, Yang Meng also took out his small notebook and started writing and painting on it. This was also learned from Ding Taichen. He was afraid that he would forget it if he had too many things.

Bamboo baskets, square ones, must not be carried, and a tall basket became Yang Meng's only choice. This thing is also ergonomic, with large and small at the bottom, and it is quite stable to carry it.

"The back basket is added with a lid, and the back strap is replaced with a cloth rope or leather rope. The kitchen prepares 300 kilograms of fried noodles and various kinds of frying meat.

There are fifty people here, each of whom prepares a tart cloth, a wool felt, and pots and pans for eating, and take them up to take a look."

In addition to restoring his physical fitness during this thousand-mile march, Yang Meng also had to come up with a set of marching equipment. Although the new army in Yunnan had, what he did now was to do was basic training, and many things still need to be improved.

Yang Meng did forget about this before. Whether in Yongchang or western Sichuan, the new army has logistical support. All the new army has to do is carry guns and fight, so there is no need to worry too much about everything else.

This change in southern Xinjiang is a good thing for both the new army and Yang Meng. This test is not only a test of the land combat capabilities of the great powers, but also a test of Yang Meng's previous gains and losses.

The marching items were basically ready, and the next one was his fifty guards. The guards around Yang Meng had been replaced by several groups. Among the new army, the most capable and strongest people were qualified to follow Yang Meng.

Now, 99% of the fifty guards around Yang Meng are mountaineers of the Zhuang Yi and Miao tribes, with a height of 1.7 meters and a weight of more than 150 kilograms. Although this is not a strong man in western Sichuan, in Yunnan, these fifty people are definitely strong men.

One person has a large blade, a bayonet, and a short knife. This is a cold weapon. In addition to the bayonet and a short knife, it is the two revolvers in the leather hood and two bullet bags used for the long and short guns.

Without shoulder straps, the load on the belt is quite large, so this is easy to solve. Two crossed cloth belts are also available with simple armed belts.

These guards were all wearing military uniforms designed by Yang Meng, with a half-body jacket and leather military boots, which looked like a man of iron.

"Take off all the leather boots, go out to change to straw sandals this time!"

There is nothing to simplify the equipment on his body. Apart from straw sandals and leggings, he has nothing to lack in his own guards.

"Third Master, what a good boot! Why are you going back to your life by changing your straw sandals?"

When I heard that I didn’t have any boots, the guards stopped doing it. I wore such good boots in my life. Why do I have to wear straw sandals again?

"A bastard, it's okay to ride a horse and wear this. Run to western Yunnan. You wear this. Just wait for your feet to rot!"

Although these military boots are covered with breathable holes, only those wearing shoes know whether they are covering their feet. Yang Meng's own boots were carefully made by shoemakers, and they smell bad in the wind all night, let alone these ordinary military boots.

"We are not afraid of rotten feet! Besides, these straw sandals are not ground and run to western Yunnan. You have to change more than ten pairs along the way, which is so troublesome!"

After looking at the boots on the guards' feet, Yang Meng was out of his way. These guys were stuffed with mud on the military boots that could be applied to the legs of the trousers. It was also difficult to count on them to throw away the military boots!

"It's done! You have to wear straw sandals, but you have to carry military boots by yourself! Anyway, the third master doesn't plan to wear boots anymore.

Prepare some leather and line it with straw sandals!”

Military boots worth a few taels of silver are as important as valuable items as large blades, fire, guns, and horses. But in Yang Meng's view, these are all dead things, and those that can be used are good things. After suffering in southern Xinjiang, they will know what shoes they should wear.

A piece of oil cloth and a piece of felt is the place to sleep in the wild. This time, Yang Meng did not plan to cross the city and march outside the wild, which was the main course of this trip to western Yunnan.

After sewing cloth tapes on the oil cloth felt, Yang Meng began to teach his guards to roll the bedding.

A bamboo basket is four or five kilograms, a bamboo kettle is two or three kilograms, a food of more than ten kilograms, a kilogram of oil cloth felt, and a nearly 30 kilogram of armed forces on his body. In addition to pots, pans, and some fragments, everyone's weight has reached about 30 kilograms. The weight of a thousand-mile march is also a great test for Yang Meng and his guards.

"San Master, are these things for you?"

Ding Taichen, who rushed back with Liu Yitie, was also a little dumbfounded when he saw Yang Meng's outfit. OK! In this blink of an eye, his third master turned into a thug.

"Well! This is a must-have, it's a bit heavy!"

Yang Meng shrugged and tried the weight of the backpack. He was really not used to it.

"Those people below do it. Why are you doing this?"

Doing it yourself can also determine what the hard work should be done. These hard work should not be what the Yang family should do.

"If you want to survive in this world, some things must be known. I carry these things, but they are all life-saving things. This time I try it. If it is appropriate, the new army will do this in the future!"

Yang Meng said this well. According to the current conditions, it is difficult to replenish supplies from the army. A person has to bring at least half a month of food rations, and oil cloth felt is also an indispensable thing. In addition to weapons and equipment, thirty kilograms are considered a basic load.

"It's true! I don't know what the marching and war are, you can do it! You all listened to it. The safety of the Third Master this time is the most important thing. He got a fuss, but no one could take it!"

No one could stop what the Third Master believed, but it was not without danger to go to western Yunnan. After responding to Yang Meng's words, Ding Taichen also gave Yang Meng's fifty guards the order to die.

The guards who were born in mountain people had nothing to do with their own words, but they just put their firm eyes on Yang Meng. The guards of the third master were different from ordinary new soldiers. Not to mention their own salary, even if their family members earned one or two times more money than others, this is the welfare of the Yang family's direct descendants.

The new army is not the direct line of the Yang family, nor is it the knife hand. In the eyes of the people of Yunnan, the real direct line is the one who protects the safety of the Yang family, and the people around the Third Master are even the direct line among the direct line.

Although the guards around Yang Meng had changed several groups of people, each one released either led troops in the new army or became the owner of Wuzhuang. If they changed to other places, there was no promotion faster than following the Third Master.

Those who can be Yang Meng's guards have also been screened through layers of screening. It is not enough to fight alone. There are millions of people in Yunnan and hundreds of thousands of people in the Yang family and Wuzhuang. There are so many people who dare to fight and kill. Why are they only selected fifty of them?

In addition to being strong-willed, most of them have a wink and are extremely loyal to the Yang family. Although the Yang family has only been prosperous in Yunnan for a few years, there are still more than 100,000 people who dare to fight for the Yang family.

A foolish and loyal person is also a pass that is guarded by the Yang family. Wei Wu personally took charge of this pass. Mr. Wei had almost no omissions when he looked at people. For Yang Meng's safety, the Yang family also spent a lot of effort.

"Okay! We stay in Wuzhuang tonight. You have to take care of the matters at home tomorrow morning. Don't make any mistakes!"

In fact, Ding Taichen said this in vain. Yang Meng knew the best of what his guard was like. He would never stay with him if he was not easy to use. If the people around him said something exaggerated, he would probably not hesitate if he asked them to wipe their necks.

"San Master, this is Bai Yao, with a small silver knife in it. After rushing, remember to untie the leggings. It is best to soak your feet in hot water at night. If the blisters appear on your feet, you will poke them.

Remember to scrape off the ulcerated areas with a silver knife and apply white medicine. After using the silver knife, rub it with wine and roast it over fire.

This is Qingwen's medicine powder. If it is hot, you can also drink some with water. This is bleach brought by foreigners. Water purification is miraculous, but it is toxic.

I have engraved these medicine names on the box, so you have to see clearly when using them.”

Before leaving, Liu Yitie also turned into a broken mouth, afraid that the third master would forget to bring something.

"There is all bleaching powder, this is a good thing, made in large quantities!"

When Yang Meng heard about the bleaching powder, his eyes lit up. This thing is so good! Liu Yitie didn't think of any advice and got a task, and he was choked.

"San Master, please go and rest early! I will arrange the matter here."

"Well! I need to try more straw sandals, and I'm a little unsure."

It was getting late, and Yang Meng did not refuse. He took his guards to stay in Wuzhuang. (To be continued...)
Chapter completed!
