Chapter 164: Iron and Blood Brigade 1
Li Jing was a literati, in order to hone his training, he joined Yang Su's army, but the war came too fast, there was no time for Li Jing to receive complete training, Li Jing took the position of the envoy in front of the account, this job is to record the merits of the soldiers with the army, although it is a civilian, but must be on the front line.

Yang Su would kill soldiers who violated military discipline every time before the battle, sometimes even dozens of them, so that blood flowed all over the ground to establish the prestige of the army. Yang Su's gruesome and brutal use of military methods, when the leader of the army confronts the enemy, he will carefully look for weaknesses in the enemy's defensive line. Once discovered, he would call the commanders of his troops to draw a lot of life, and the number of each team depended on the strength of the enemy's defending team, sometimes 100, sometimes 300, sometimes 500.
When the order to attack is given, the troops drawn to the first echelon will rush to the enemy's weak position, if they do not capture the enemy's position, the soldiers who have fled back from defeat will be beheaded in front of the armies of both sides, and then the troops drawn to the second echelon will be called to set off.
Because if the enemy position is not captured, he must die, and the soldiers can only move forward bravely, and so on, unless the enemy hastened to send more troops to reinforce that point, otherwise the defenders at that point will inevitably die. However, what Yang Su was waiting for was the deployment of the army on the enemy's mobile defense line, as long as the enemy moved in large numbers, there would definitely be new loopholes in the defense line, and Yang Su immediately commanded the whole army to rush in from the loopholes.
Since he was young, Yang Su has won all battles, because all the enemy generals who fought against him did not dare to easily send troops to support the point that was attacked by Yang Su's death.
The defenders knew that they were eighty percent dead, of course they wanted to flee, Yang Su's simple and direct tactics, none of the other generals did not say: "What's the big deal about this?"
But no one can learn it, you must know that seeing the weaknesses in the enemy's defense line is extremely high in itself, and Yang Su happens to be a genius in this regard. Yang Su's cousin, He Ruobi, who was listed as one of the three famous generals of the Sui Dynasty with Yang Su, publicly said that Yang Su did not need strategy to win the battle, and could only be regarded as a fierce general, not a general.
Yang Su led the troops has an advantage but He Ruobi has to be convinced, since the Northern Dynasty and the Western Wei Yuwentai established the system of reading the envoy in front of the account, after the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the Sui Dynasty, the years have passed, and the malpractice has gradually arisen, and the vast majority of the generals have either assigned their own henchmen to serve, or they have tried to win over the people sent by the top to become their own henchmen, and then they have been running up and down, trying to swallow up the merits of their subordinates, and wantonly accepting bribes.
Since Yang Su will win, as long as he does not violate military discipline and is not unlucky, he just belongs to the team that has drawn the first echelon, and he is undoubtedly arranged under Yang Su's command to represent that he is about to be promoted and make a fortune, so although Yang Su led the troops fiercely, there are still many soldiers who rush to serve as Yang Su's subordinates.
The envoy had to know all the commanders of the entire army, and he also had to arrange his own eyes and ears in each unit, so Li Jing was very busy, shuttling between the troops every day, visiting and inspecting everywhere. One day, he accidentally met a small soldier, who was white and thin, and this kind of person was the most easily bullied in the army, and even became the target of others' aggression.
Li Jing felt compassion for a while, and called the little soldier over: "You can only be a soldier when you are sixteen years old, are you sixteen years old?"
"Report sir, the youngest is indeed sixteen years old. ”
"You don't even have an Adam's apple, at most fourteen or fifteen years old. ”
Li Jing originally wanted to continue but swallowed the words back, it is not uncommon for him to come to the army at the age of fourteen or five. The Sui Dynasty inherited the military system of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and those who were incorporated into the military households were given military fields by the government, cultivated in peacetime, trained in agricultural slack, and went out to fight when there was something.
Since the Sui had just unified the whole country, each military household was allocated a large amount of military land, and they could not finish cultivating it themselves, so almost most of the military households subleased their fields to others for farming. Military households are hereditary, and some people only give birth to children when they are old, but now that there is a war, if they can't be called to go to the army, the land will be taken back by the state, and they are really reluctant.
Li Jing looked at the little soldier in front of him, he was the kind of poor guy who had no elder brother, Li Jing wanted to find him as his eyes and ears, at least he could have a little weight in the army, and his life would be better: "What is your name? Do you have any special talents?"
"Report to the chief, the little one is called Wei Mulan, the little one is very good at archery, and he is also very good at horseback riding, and he is not bad at fighting, and the four or five of them together are not my opponents. Li Jingleng froze, he wondered if he had heard it wrong.
"You're saying your martial arts are good?"
"It's okay!"
Li Jing asked someone to bring an arrow target and gave Wei Mulan a bow and a barrel of arrows, there were thirty arrows in the quiver, Wei Mulan shot thirty arrows at a very fast speed, and all of them were shot within the range of the red bull's-eye.
Li Jing asked someone to bring a horse again, Wei Mulan squatted and jumped, and she had already turned over on the horse. Wei Mulan rode the horse forward and galloped, the horse was marching, Wei Mulan held the saddle with his hand, squatted on the saddle with his feet and slowly stood up, changed into a horse riding on the saddle, and rode for a while, Wei Mulan jumped off the horse, ran with the horse, suddenly saddled from the left side of the horse, saddled from the right side of the horse, suddenly hit under the horse's belly, and suddenly turned over to the saddle, and ran back and forth a few times.
When he rode in front of Li Jing, Li Jing threw him a bow and a bag of arrows, and pointed at the arrow target with his finger. Wei Mulan clamped the horse's belly between her legs, rode her horse towards the arrow target, and pulled the bow while riding and fired three arrows in a row, and the arrows were all red hearts.
"Wow, so powerful?" Li Jing couldn't help but exclaim with the onlookers around him, he really didn't expect this little ghost to be so powerful.
Li Jing asked someone to find a strong soldier, and Li Jing said to Wei Mulan: "You said that you are very good at fighting, you come to fight with this strong man." ”
Li Jing's words had just finished speaking, Wei Mulan had already kicked the lower part of the strong man, the strong man bent down in pain, Wei Mulan raised his right hand, and his two fingers were forked into the eyes of the strong man, "Wow, wow!" Before the strong man could shout a third time, Wei Mulan grabbed the strong man's collar with his right hand, turned around, wrapped around the strong man's neck, swept with his left foot, and the strong man fell down and lay down.
Wei Mulan clamped the strong man's head between her legs, grabbed the strong man's collar with her right hand and pulled it hard, and the strong man suddenly foamed at the mouth and rolled his eyes. "Stop, stop, stop!" If Li Jing had shouted to stop a little later, he was afraid that he would die.
"Okay, your martial arts are really good, can you read and write?"
"It's okay!"
"And what else would you have?"
Wei Mulan thought for a moment and said, "I can also play Go." ”
Li Jing applied to Yang Su to transfer Wei Mulan as his assistant, and put an extra marching bed in Li Jing's tent, and Wei Mulan began to get along with Li Jing day and night. As soon as the two had free time, they hurriedly took out the chessboard chess pieces to play chess, Wei Mulan's chess skills dominated his township, and he never expected that Li Jing's chess power was famous in the capital.
The first game of chess, down to the middle game, it is Wei Mulan's turn, Wei Mulan looked at his chess position, the dragon on the right has not yet lived, and the ground below has to be surrounded by a son, and the left side is afraid that it will suffer if it is not made up, I don't know where this chess piece is going to be played, the abacus is already more than ten eyes behind, thinking about it, tears rolled down Wei Mulan's face.
"Manly man, why do you cry when you play chess? Li Jing was angry and funny, in order to let Wei Mulan continue to play chess with him, Li Jing had to say good things to coax Wei Mulan.
Li Jing loves Wei Mulan like a little brother, but Li Jing always feels that Wei Mulan will look at him with very strange eyes from time to time, Li Jing thought: "This little ghost head should not really be Ji, right?"
