Since the conditions of this river are suitable for fishing, even if the net is cast and only a palm-sized fish is caught, a palm-sized fish is still a fish.

Anyway, the manpower in the army is now in a state of extreme waste. They are all idle anyway. Why not go to the river to catch some fish, which will not only save some military rations, but also get valuable protein.

To put it mildly, even if you only catch one small fish in the net a day, if you are more shameless, you can get the small fish, remove the scales, and grill it on the fire, so that your brother can eat two more bites of meat.

And if the fish catch is good, and you encounter a small river with shallow water and many fish, and you catch dozens of fat and big fish in one net, you will catch thousands of fish of eight pounds in one day. Calculated according to energy units, the calories that meat can provide

Several times the amount of starch, a thousand handfuls of eight pounds of fish are equivalent to twice the weight of grain.

Two thousand kilograms of grain is still a huge amount.

When his thoughts expanded to this point, Li Mengxi suddenly thought that since the net was not too heavy, he could use the fishing net as a standing item. Each centurion, or every two centurions, should be equipped with a pair of fishing nets.

There are three advantages. First, during the march, you may encounter rivers, pools and other places at any time. Regardless of whether there are fish or not, after setting up camp, shoot two nets. If there are no fish, it will be an after-dinner activity. If there are fish, it means you can

Adding extra meals and more fish equals an improvement in the life of the whole camp.

Second, fishing nets are considered a survival tool. If one day, the food and grass are burned by the enemy, our army flees in panic. After running for several days, the soldiers will be dizzy and empty from hunger. If we suddenly escape to an unknown river, if

Without internet, I can only look at the water and sigh.

If the army is equipped with a certain number of fishing nets, even if most of the fishing nets have been left behind, even if there is only one net left, with this one net, fish can be caught.

There is a way to replenish military rations.

If you're lucky, if it's the season when the river is flooded with fish, you might be able to catch enough fish in a net for half a day to feed the defeated soldiers, restore their physical strength, and regain a certain amount of combat power.

Now that part of the combat strength has been restored, it might be possible to set up an ambush to surround and kill the pursuing troops, or even turn defeat into victory.

And if they were really unlucky, the soldiers would be too hungry to walk. Finally they encountered a river and worked hard to net fish. However, after netting for a long time, there were only two or three big and small fish.

Not many fish can be caught, and military rations are still in short supply. So at this time, the fishing nets are of little use?

Not really.

Although it is only a net, the fish caught in the net will be a drop in the bucket, but it cannot solve the urgent need.

However, since they can catch fish, the soldiers have hope of survival.

Cao Cao used the method of looking at plum blossoms to quench his thirst. When the mountains and rivers are exhausted, there is a net and water, so why can't he look at the water to quench his hunger?

What's more, Cao Cao's plum blossoms are far away, but our army's fish are close in the net.

Which one is better or worse?

Third, the army is equipped with a certain proportion of fishing nets, which can also be used to catch Lu Bu.

Why capture Lu Bu?

When watching martial arts movies, masters are often plotted against by a group of gangsters. The gangsters jump off the wall with fishing nets and shoot the nets at the master's head. Suddenly, the master is entangled in the fishing net, and the more he struggles, the tighter he becomes.

, and then the despicable and shameless minions took advantage of the moment when the master was entangled, spreading lime, shooting with bows and arrows, poking with guns, taking the opportunity to knock sap from behind, and so on.

After a while, a master was tortured to death by a group of soldiers with low martial arts. His death was horrific.

Martial arts movies, after all, can be regarded as the world view of Zhongwu. Those masters can jump several feet high, punch through walls with one palm, and their strength seems to be more powerful than Lu Bu.

Since all masters will be assassinated by fishing nets, I wonder if Lu Bu can be defeated by Lu Bu's courage, using fishing nets, lime, crossbows, and sap.

When he thought of the scene of Lu Bu being stretched out by a fishing net, a sinister smile appeared on Li Mengxi's face, and then he couldn't help laughing.

When Liu Bei and Guan Yu came to find him, they happened to see Li Mengxi smiling loudly and proudly in front of the Yuan.

Liu Bei and Guan Yu looked at each other sympathetically, with smiles on their faces.

Li Mengxi was lost in his thoughts, and he was very happy when he suddenly heard the brisk sound of horse hooves behind him.

Li Mengxi turned around and looked back, oh, when did Liu Bei and Guan Yu arrive?

"Xi'er, when I see you smiling loudly at the abyss, I must have hatched another plan." Liu Bei turned over and dismounted and asked with a smile.

On the side, Guan Yu had a smile on his face.

Li Mengxi looked serious and replied, "As soon as I had a strange idea, you two came over. I just wanted to have a detailed discussion with you."

Liu Bei asked casually. Liu Bei originally thought that Li Mengxi had a young mind. If he stood by the river and laughed for a while, he would act like a young man without any reason.

But he didn't expect it, and he thought it was a real conspiracy.

Based on Liu Bei and Guan Yu's understanding of Li Mengxi, it must be extraordinary that Li Mengxi had a sudden plan.

Liu Bei and Guan Yu were greatly surprised, so they dismounted and led their horses over.

It was right by the river, no more than three or five steps away from the river, and the water was roaring loudly.

Li Mengxi looked up at Liu Bei and Guan Yu, and said sternly, "The plan I have in mind lies in the word [fish].

Let me ask you two, it has been nearly two months since you raised your troops from Zhuojun. During these two months, how many times have you encountered water? How many streams have you encountered? How many ponds have you encountered? How many abyss have you encountered?"

Li Mengxi asked in a deep voice.

Liu Bei and Guan Yu both frowned.

Guan Yu stroked his long beard with his hand, frowned and thought for a moment, then hesitated and said, "Since the beginning of the army, we have encountered water sometimes, maybe once in three days, maybe once in five days, or once in ten days. I have never paid attention to it, and I have not recorded the details."

Then, Guan Yu replied, "Every time we set up camp, there will be scouts looking for water. Our army only followed the main road and even though it didn't encounter water, how could the scouts only see water thirty or forty times?"

"Yes." Li Mengxi nodded, his eyes wandering on the faces of Liu Bei and Guan Yu, and asked curiously, "I wonder if you two can cast the net to catch fish with your own hands?"

"Yes." Liu Bei replied.

"Same as this." Guan Yu also nodded.

"How many fish can be caught in one net?" Li Mengxi asked again with his eyes widened.

Guan Yu said, "Fish are caught in different springs and autumns, and in different waters. It is difficult to determine how many fish there are in a net."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Then, take this river." Li Mengxi took a step forward and pointed to the river beside him. Liu Bei and Guan Yu both looked at it.

"A river like this is so wide and deep. If you cast a net down, do you think you might catch fish?"

"Maybe." Guan Yu frowned.

"Then if we net ten times, we might catch fish?" Li Mengxi asked again.

"Yes!" Guan Yu replied again.

"What about Ruobaiwang?"

"If you use a hundred nets, you will surely catch a fish!" Liu Bei also replied from the side.

Li Mengxi laughed loudly at this time, and there was excitement on his face. He looked up at Liu Bei and Guan Yu excitedly, "If there are hundreds of nets, let the sergeants line up along the river, and if there are hundreds of people, the nets will be 100, so,

How many fish can be caught?”

"There are plenty of fish!" Liu Bei and Guan Yu looked at each other, and their eyes suddenly lit up. They understood what Li Mengxi meant.

"Then let me ask you two again, should one hundred catties of fish be worth one hundred catties of grain?"

"It can be used as two hundred kilograms of grain." Liu Bei nodded.

"That's right. General Guan said that since our army has been marching for two months, our scouts have seen water no less than forty times, and Tanxi has approached me more than forty times.

If our army has many fishing nets and encounters water forty times, if every time we set up camp, we send people to carry the nets several miles away, regardless of whether they have fish or not, how many nets are thrown out.

In this way, after these forty times, if each time we get twenty catties of fish, then forty times, we can get eight hundred catties of fish, which is equivalent to 1,600 catties of military rations.

Our army will only march for two months. If it reaches four months, we can catch 1,2600 catties of fish, which is equivalent to 3,200 catties of army rations.

By August, a total of 3,200 catties of fish had been harvested, which was equivalent to 6,400 catties of army rations."

Six thousand four hundred kilograms of military rations. When Li Mengxi said this considerable figure, both Liu Bei and Guan Yu were surprised.

"Hey! It's a pity. If I had known this, I would have prepared fishing nets early, so I couldn't have saved this good army rations!" Liu Bei looked at the flowing river and sighed sadly.

Li Mengxi shook his head and said with a smile, "There are many fishing nets in the army. During the march, we can replenish our army's rations on the spot. This is one of them."

There are still two of them that I can use."

“Fishing nets can also be tools for survival, but what are tools for survival?

A large net, weighing no more than a few dozen kilograms, can be carried on a sergeant's back.

If one day, our army flees in panic, loses all its supplies, and flees to a stream or encounters a pond, and if there is no net in hand, what can we do?

If you had a net and fished near the water, wouldn't you be able to survive in desperate situations?

Even if the fish catch is poor, it can still stabilize the morale of the army."

The second great use of Li Mengxi and Guan Yu's fishing nets also made Liu Bei and Guan Yu think deeply.
