The hammock deserves to be documented.

Li Mengxi's knowledge is very messy. Just because he can think of hammocks today does not mean that he will be able to think of them in the future. It does not mean that he will be able to think of hammocks 100% when he forms a naval force in the future.

Therefore, whatever comes to mind must be recorded.

Hammocks are not suitable as camp beds.

Li Mengxi racked his brains, searching for all the memories of marching and camping military equipment in his mind.

He then proposed two solutions.

One is a sleeping bag, and the other is the idea of ​​a folding bed.

The sleeping bag is made of waterproof material, and the sleeping bag is made the same way as the fabric of the tent is made.

The tent fabric is made of tung oil-brushed fabric, and the sleeping bag is made in the same way.

A sleeping bag, as the name suggests, is a sleeping bag.

When sleeping, the whole person gets into the bag, leaving only the head outside.

People can just sleep directly on the ground.

If the ground is uneven, it will be uncomfortable? No. There is a quilt sewn into the sleeping bag, so it will not be annoying.

When it rains, don't worry if water floods into your tent.

There is a tent to block the rain falling from above, and the sleeping bag is waterproof and will not get the bedding inside wet when soaked in water.

When sleeping on rainy days, just place a high pillow under your head. The pillow can be made of wood or a basket, it can be anything.

Only the head of the sleeping bag is exposed. As long as you raise your head, water will not enter the sleeping bag.

The height of a person's head after being elevated should be at least twenty centimeters from the ground.

At a height of twenty centimeters, it is impossible for the rainwater in the tent to reach that deep. If the rainwater is twenty centimeters deep, it is not rain, but a flash flood.

At night, the sleeping bags were half soaked in the rain, and the soldiers were wrapped in sleeping bags and fell asleep peacefully without any disturbance.

At this time, the bedding also has a thermal insulation effect. If a person is soaked in rainwater, he will die of hypothermia unknowingly. But with bedding insulating and protecting him, there is no need to worry about this.

This is a sleeping bag.

Folding beds are made of bamboo or balsa wood that can be folded into two or three folds. They can be carried around when marching and unfolded when sleeping.

As for how to deal with the details, Li Mengxi had no idea.

Whether it's a sleeping bag or a lightweight folding bed, it won't add too much weight.

Because, if you have a sleeping bag or folding bed, then you need to bring a copy seat.

The manuscript mat weighs more than ten or twenty kilograms and is extremely heavy.

If there is a lightweight folding bed, it can completely replace the function of the manuscript seat. The weight of the lightweight folding bed is only ten or twenty pounds.

As for sleeping bags, they are even lighter.

A sleeping bag functions as both a bed and a bedding.

The rebels' current sleeping utensils are a manuscript mat, a mat, a quilt, and a quilt for covering.

The sleeping bag is a quilt and a bag made into one piece.

In terms of logistics and weight-bearing, the sleeping bag is the best marching tool.

From this, a question arises.

The sleeping bag is an integrated bed and mattress. The quilt in the sleeping bag is not only used to keep out the cold, but also plays a soft and buffering role when sleeping in the wild. Otherwise, sleeping in the wild with only a thin layer of sleeping bag will make you sleep all night.

of back pain.

Therefore, bedding is a must in your sleeping bag.

At all times when sleeping, bedding must be removed from the sleeping bag.

So, here's the problem.

In spring, autumn and winter, sleeping wrapped in a quilt is okay, but what about summer? You can't take off the quilt, so you can only wrap yourself in the quilt at night. It's so hot.

Li Mengxi raised this issue and asked Liu Bei and Guan Yu for his opinion.

Guan Yu thought for a moment and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter."

"Xi'er, you have to work hard in the army. It's okay to get a little warmer when you sleep."

Li Mengxi was silent.

Indeed, marching and fighting is not a vacation.

It's not a big deal if it's hotter.

Besides, when you sleep at night, the temperature is not that high, at most ten degrees.

I have only heard of people suffering from heat stroke while sleeping during the day, but rarely heard of people suffering from heat stroke at night.

Therefore, sleeping bags can also be hot spots in summer, but other than that, there are no other disadvantages.

The sleeping bag is great, as is the fold-out bed.

As for now, the army has neither sleeping bags nor folding beds. Liu Bei has come up with a fairly useful method.

If you want to sleep well on a rainy night, you have to set up a bed.

There is something that is of great use.

Li Mengxi just made the carrying tool and the basket of tree branches.

The big basket is solid, tall, wide and big.

Two big baskets, one on the other side, and the manuscript seat is placed upwards, and it becomes a stable bed.

If there are enough carrying tools, there will be a big basket for eight people.

That can support four beds.

On a rainy night, it is actually enough to have four beds to sleep safely. People sleep alternately, one person sleeps for half the night, and the other half of the night.

When Li Mengxi heard this, he couldn't help but scratch his head. How can a portable device be used like this?

According to this, the basket can be used as more than just a frame for supporting the bed?

It can also be used as a stool when eating, a table for eating, and even a floating tool for swimming in the water.

Why can't it be used as a swimming tool? Under the technical conditions of the late Han Dynasty, it was very difficult to make a hollow buoyant ball.

The next best thing is to make your own buoyancy basket, which is easier.

It comes with a carrying basket and a rainproof bag inside.

When you need to swim, you can modify the rainproof bag, take a needle and thread, and tie the rainproof bag to the bottom of the basket. The basket plus the rainproof bag is equivalent to a rubber bucket, which can provide a lot of buoyancy.

Then you can use it to swim across.

Um.

Carrying equipment may be made multi-functional.

When marching outside, the situation is complicated. If you prepare enough various items for complex situations, it can indeed improve the army's response capabilities, but at the same time, it will put huge pressure on logistics.

Then, combining as few items as possible with as many functions as possible is a good way to increase the military's response capabilities and reduce logistical pressure.

This idea is the Swiss Army Knife idea.

Since the portable tool can be used as a support for a bed, when braiding the bottom and upper edge, make it flatter. In this way, when the bed is supported, it can be supported more stably.

Since the portable tool can be used as a stool and flattened as a table, when making the portable tool, you can either make the four sides very flat, or weave a thin small wooden board on top.

Other armies don't need soldiers to have tables.

But the rebel army is different. The soldiers of the rebel army have to learn to write. To learn to write, they need to have a table.

Therefore, the carrying equipment must have a very flat area.

Put a flat piece of paper on it and write on it with a pen.

Also, the large carrying basket and rainproof bag can be used as a swimming tool.

Well, the rainproof bag can actually be made larger, according to the shape of the basket, or made into a square bag. In this way, when you need to swim, the bag can easily fit the basket and be modified.

Yes, this is an extremely valuable idea.
