Chapter Fifty-Three: Two Eggs Lead the Troops

The whole army bears 12 stones, there is a road to run a hundred miles a day, and there is no road to cut down trees.

Thousands of miles of training, which took 23 days, entered the Qingbei territory.

Qingzhou is the capital of the northern part of Daxing, 30,000 mountains, endlessly, the peak is covered with snow all the year round, the mountain forest is dense under the peak, the scenery in the mountains is magnificent and beautiful, but the new army has no intention of enjoying leisure, the army is stopped and camped in the evening, and everyone is tired and paralyzed on the ground.

Dinner time is the most idle time for the new army these days, lighting the fire and setting up a stove, two units and one stove, around the bonfire, smelling the aroma of rice and vegetables and cakes, the fire reflects the faces of the recruits, fatigue and vitality coexist.

At first, when the march in the woods arrived, when it was time to camp and rest, everyone inevitably complained about the fatigue of the exercise, and as the time went by, those who should complain complained about it, and they felt that the topic was boring. The drills were held day by day, and the recruits quickly learned to have fun in the midst of hardship, sitting around during meals, from talking about family affairs to chatting about hometown anecdotes, and eager to find out all the things in their stomachs to relieve their boredom.

When a group of men get together, they inevitably talk about meat, and they talk about other people's kang heads when they chat.

“…… The lady's thighs were snow-white, screaming Meng Lang, Liu Yuan's outer soul was hooked, and the aunt in the eighth room of the family did not go to the house, so she had to look for the twenty-eight widow, and one day he would let the big house know, thinking that the family could not be cured, and the wild fox outside could not be cured? Then the big house instructed the servants in the house to go to the widow's house, and more than a dozen people waited on her, and all her fingers and clubs were used, and the widow cried loudly at first, but then her voice became quieter and quieter, and at last she died. When those little guys saw that they had lost their lives, they hurriedly fled back to the house, and the government came to investigate, and more than a dozen people, and they couldn't tell which one was bullying to death, so they sentenced the last person to death, and the rest were only punished with a cane. ”

"Tsk!" A group of men smashed their mouths, their eyes were like wolves and tigers than when they looked at the rice dishes in the stove, thinking that their thighs were snow-white, and their fingers were sticks.

Liu Heizi is only fifteen, he has not yet learned women's affairs, the sky is dark, and the firelight reflects the shy young man's face, which is extremely red.

Shi Dahai looked at him like this, laughed, and patted him on the shoulder, "Listen more!" I don't tell you to deceive the daughter of the good family, but only let you know how many tricks you can do to marry a daughter-in-law in the future. However, if you are a man who feels sorry for your daughter-in-law, you can't make that stick thing, and the things in hand are more fun. ”

Liu Heizi heard the fire on his face burning, and his head was lowered and he quickly buried himself in his pants.

A group of men laughed, Shi Dahai inadvertently swept to the side, and saw Twilight sitting on his knees, looking at the stove, not squinting.

Shi Dahai suddenly smiled and pointed at Du Qing, and said, "Junior Brother Zhou didn't marry a daughter-in-law, right?" I listened to it with straight eyes! ”

In the laughter, Twilight raised her eyes, there was no embarrassment on her face, no hue, only a pair of cold eyes, and a rather pale complexion, "A woman is not a girl, and there can be no anatomical changes in the organs in this case, but in case of violence, there can be tears and other injuries." If you ask the confessions of those dozen or so people, you will definitely be able to ask who came first and who came after, who used a stick, who used a finger, who had blood on their bodies after they acted, and who used a stick and who had blood on their bodies, according to the laws of our court, can be sentenced to death! The rest of the men weigh a hundred rods, and if the execution of the servants is just, they will surely kill a few of them and mutilate a few of them! If this matter is not the laziness of the government, the story is not true. ”

The story is untrue......

A group of men looked at Dusk Qing with strange eyes, someone in this young man's family was working in the county office? How can you say that it is the truth?

The man who said the joke was even more depressed, the story was meant to relieve boredom, why did this kid still scrutinize whether it was true?

But the young man's words were extremely sonorous and powerful, "Truth and untruth are not to be joked, how can the matter of human life be relieved?" If you want to talk about meat jokes, pick something else! ”

There was suddenly no sound around the stove, and after a while, Zhang Tong snorted, "It's true, presumably except for the scholar's clothes, all the silver won was thrown into the kiln, right?" Listening to the way of the royal maid is really enough, I just wonder if you have pretended to be the son of the scholar clan to harm the woman of the good family? ”

"Brother Zhang!" Han Qichu hurriedly stopped, raised his eyes and glanced at Du Qing deeply, and changed the subject, "I heard Mo Chang say a few days ago that after entering the Qingzhou territory, we may change to a night march." The meal is ready, let's hurry up and eat, who knows which night will not be able to sleep well? ”

Together, there is no distinction between day and night, and it is normal for the enemy to respond to the battle at night. These days are all daytime marches, and the physical endurance of the new army has been sharpened to the limit, and it is time to practice at night.

After leaving Qingzhou, he entered the northwest border, where the horse gang was in great trouble, and he guessed that when he entered the northwest, the new army would suppress bandits along the way to practice actual combat. The biggest difference between the new army and the old army is not the number of years in the army, but how much blood is stained on the knife.

If you don't kill the enemy, you can't become an elite soldier, your hands won't get bloody, and your knife will never sharpen.

The war on the Northwest Front was tight, and the New Army had to go to the battlefield when it arrived at the front, and this exercise was the most effective.

But Han Qichu kept silent about this matter, and there was no such military order from above. Since ancient times, the superior did not like to be guessed, and if this matter is said and spread, it is a correct guess and the crime of confusing the army's heart.

As soon as a group of men heard about eating, they immediately diverted their attention, took out their own big bowls and served them, regardless of whether it was hot, and then snorted and snorted and stuffed their heads to pick up rice.

However, Zhang Tong is an extremist character, Han Qichu's intentions were in vain, he continued to find fault after the meal, "The master just looks at him unpleasantly!" Don't persuade the master in the future! ”

"Ahem!" Han Qichu choked on a mouthful of cake and almost died.

"If you don't like it, you can do it!" A man suddenly interjected.

A group of people were stunned for a moment, and saw that the man who opened his mouth was the one who had just said that the meat story was more true by Twilight.

Twilight didn't raise her head, and ate by herself.

Han Qichu took a breath and said, "There is no private fight in the army, this is a military rule!" Fifty violators! ”

"If it's Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will choose to be beaten with a military stick, it's better than being looked down upon! In the army, only fists are recognized, and whoever has hard fists and hard bones is a hero! The man said, obviously Twilight Qing was more serious and made him feel uncomfortable.

Military regulations belong to military regulations, but this principle is indeed recognized by everyone.

Everyone looked at Zhang Tong, Zhang Tong held a steaming meal, looked at Dui Qing provocatively, and said, "The master is not afraid of being beaten with a military stick, do you dare to compare with the master?" If you lose, you will be called grandpa if you win in the future! ”

Everyone looked at Twilight again, and Twilight lowered her head and continued to eat.

"it!" The man suddenly shouted loudly, and looked at Twilight Qing as if he was looking at the seed.

This sound caused the recruits from several stoves around to look over, and when they saw that someone was going to fight, they all started to coax. Although he knows that the military regulations order that he must not fight privately, but the military stick is not next to himself, who doesn't want to watch the excitement? Overloaded with drills every day, some emotions are pressed in the hearts of everyone, and they urgently need an outlet.

"Have a fight! Have a fight! Have a fight! Soon, there were loud voices all around, and everyone shouted in unison, and the sound spread far and wide, one higher than the other, louder than the daytime practice and shouting slogans.

"No!" Han Qichu's stop was hidden in the coaxing, and he knew that it was useless to persuade Zhang Tong, so he had to turn his head and tell Twilight Qing not to fight. When the new army was first established, the military regulations must be strict, if you do that bird, you will definitely be used to kill chickens and monkeys from above, and fifty military sticks are light, maybe they will be punished heavily!

But as soon as he turned his head, he was a little stunned. I saw that Twilight was still eating with her head down, and a bowl of rice was almost at the bottom.

At this time, I suddenly heard an angry rebuke from the front: "What are you yelling! ”

The sound of coaxing was weak, everyone raised their eyes, and saw that the sky was dark, the fire under the stove and the heat in the stove reflected the forest in a blur, and several generals in front of them came over, the leader of the person was in black robes and black armor, beard, and eyes like knives, it was Lu Da, the deputy general of the Northwest Army!

"General Lu!"

"General Lu......"

All the recruits stood up one after another, some with timidity on their faces, others with respect. Lu Danai is the right-hand man under the command of Yuan Xiu, the commander of the Northwest Army, and how many rumors of Yuan Xiu's heroes are, how much the new army reveres his adjutant generals.

Lu Da was followed by several lieutenants, junior colonels, and Mo Chang, and Lao Xiong was among them. The troublemakers were all his soldiers, his face was suddenly as black as the bottom of the stove, grabbed one person and asked a few words, his head suddenly hurt, "Why are these two boys again?" ”

"Which two?" Lu Da asked.

"That, Zhang Tong! And that, Tuesday Egg! Old Bear pointed to Zhang Tong and Twilight.

Twilight finished her last bite of food, put down her bowl, and got up. She was the last to get up, and she was conspicuous among the hundreds of people, and Lu Da's face was as black as the bottom of the stove, and her eyes were as dark as iron.

What are you doing, kid! Itchy butt?

Ever since he entered the new barracks, he still knows about him. His body is not outstanding, and his endurance is not outstanding, but he is not the last, and he can persist in daily drills until the end, which is ordinary. Ordinary people still dare to make trouble, does this kid think that he has been trained these days and can withstand the military stick?

Lao Xiong said: "These two boys don't have a good temper, they don't fight, but they have occasional quarrels." ”

"It's not a again! What a mouth! Lu scolded angrily, glared at the old bear, and looked like the northwest wind knife, "Bickering, coaxing, these are the soldiers you brought out!" ”

"The last general is not good to lead the troops, and I am willing to lead the army!"

"Mo Chang!"

"Shut up Lao Tzu!" Lu Da knew that the recruits were asking for mercy at a glance, and he shouted angrily and blocked everyone's mouths, "The intercession in the army works, and you want his mother's military regulations to be used as decorations?" ”

Everyone didn't say anything, the private fighters in the army were sentenced to 50 military sticks, the group beaters were whipped 200, and the leaders were 100 sticks, but they didn't talk about coaxing the army to lead the sticks, and they didn't succeed in private fights, right?

Han Qichu closed his eyes and sighed lightly, this is really a bird, and he has to be punished heavily to set an example.

The forest gradually quieted, and the recruits pondered that there may not be military sticks, but drills and punishments are inevitable.

Guo Tinglu Avenue: "The map of Qingzhou Mountain is brought to Lao Tzu!" ”

"Yes!" The soldiers received the order and took out a sheepskin map from their bosom and handed it to Lu Da.

Lu Dashen swept his eyes at Dui Qing and Zhang Tong, snorted, and laughed hideously, "If you two want to fight, Lao Tzu will fulfill you!" There is a lake five miles away here, Lao Tzu later sent someone to plant a flag by the lake, you 100 people to Lao Tzu divided into two groups, one group is responsible for ambush, one group is responsible for assault, whoever takes the flag first wins! These two boys are the captains! Don't you want to coax them to see who wins or loses? I'm going to give you a good time! The winning group was exempted from his punishment, and the losing group kept vigil tonight, and the march weight was added five stones tomorrow! ”

The recruits were stunned, and the old bear suddenly raised his head with shocked eyes.

The new army has been practicing physical training these days, and there will be more to practice in the future, such as bow shooting and crossbow skills, horse combat arrays, and the only thing that does not need to be practiced is to lead the troops. Leading troops is the way of generals, and in case of war, only the captain and above have the opportunity to lead the troops. The New Army has been training very hard these days, and everyone has already complained, and the punishment is too heavy to cause mutiny. This punishment method is fresh for the new army and can arouse fighting spirit, and if you lose, you will not complain, it is an excellent method, but let Zhang Tong and Tuesday Dan lead the troops, and it is really cheap for these two boys!

For these two boys, it is a loss, and the experience of leading troops tonight is also a once-in-a-lifetime experience!

Zhang Tong's eyes burst out with joy, and the stove fire reflected his face, and he couldn't suppress his excitement. After he became a military general, he was familiar with military books since he was a child, and it was his ambition to join the army. I thought that I would have the opportunity to make meritorious service only after I went to the border to kill the enemy, and when I was promoted to the rank of captain, I had the right to lead the troops, not to mention that I would have to fight for two or three years, but I never thought that I would have such an opportunity after just a month in the army!

Han Qichu was also stunned.

At this time, Lu Da looked at the hundreds of recruits around him and said, "Which one do you want to follow, choose for yourself!" ”

Han Qichu was stunned again, and his face suddenly showed a sad color.

Sure enough, I saw that the hundreds of recruits around looked at each other, and people flocked to Zhang Tong like a tide, and a few people were undecided, but none of them went behind Dusk Qing!

The hundreds of them were strangers and practiced together when they were in school, and they all had an impression of each other. After Zhang Tong is a military general, he is outstanding and the best among the people. Tuesday Dan was not very good at drilling, and in the face of Zhang Tong's provocation, he has been silent, a little sloppy. Lu Da let everyone choose by themselves, and naturally the people who choose the same chapter will account for the vast majority. After all, winning or losing is a matter of punishment, and no one wants to be punished.

Zhang Tong looked at Twilight Qing with a triumphant face, as a general, unpopular, how could she win him?

Twilight Qing was expressionless, glanced at those who were undecided, and said, "It's just a matter of choosing someone, and if you don't make a move, your mind is not strong, and if you don't have a strong mind, it's better to admit defeat!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the recruits who were still hesitant suddenly looked annoyed, and the recruits standing behind Zhang Tong showed mockery. The most despised in the army is like a bad seed, and he is hesitant to be a girl, no different from a bad seed!

Those recruits were so blushing that they wanted to choose the same chapter, but they were also red at this time, and they were embarrassed to go any further.

At this time, Twilight said, "If you are annoyed, it means that you still have blood, so come here." Less is more, and those with blood will be interested. ”

"Less is more?" Zhang Tong frowned, and everyone was stunned.

"Yes. What I choose is yours, I don't want it! All I have to do is ......" Twilight swept away the undecided soldiers, "them! ”

They?!

The recruits who were pointed out were stunned, and Lu Da and others were also stunned.

There are only about thirty of these recruits, and the number of Zhang Tong's side is double that of her!

As long as there are more than 30 people, and they are all soldiers, this kid really wants to win? ――

I was wrong, I won't say anything more, I'll go to bed, tomorrow Christmas Eve, Wan Watch.
