Chapter 440: Command

Black Tooth was often stunned, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Although there are not many opportunities for the captain of the Guardian Army to go to the battlefield.

But in fact, he essentially performs the duties of the guard, protects the boss on weekdays, is the boss's personal guard, and when he arrives on the battlefield, once the battle line is in an emergency, he assumes the responsibility of the fire brigade.

He never expected that Chen Zhengtai would hand over the escort battalion to himself.

thought that with his background and qualifications, at most he would just give Xue Rengui a hand, but thinking that Xue Rengui would show off his power in front of him next, Hei Yan Changzhi felt that the future was bleak.

But at this time, his body trembled, and there were tears in his eyes.

What is called the death of a confidant, following a person like Han Gong, I really want to die for him immediately.

Without hesitation, he said, "Wow." ”

"Roughly, that's it, this new army, the stakes are very high, I said ugly things ahead, the establishment of the new army, it will be of great use in the future, if it doesn't help at that time, your future will naturally be bleak, and my Chen family is only afraid that there will be a catastrophe." Chen Zhengtai's face today was extremely serious.

Your Majesty's determination has been decided, which means that the Chen family can only follow Li Shimin all the way to the dark.

If it succeeds, of course...... The Chen family has great benefits. But if it fails, the foundation of the Chen family will be completely buried, and his old capital will be lost.

Of course, Chen Zhengtai has confidence in Li Shimin.

He believes that in any era, there will always be a demon, and this demon can always turn decay into magic and become the backbone of history.

But this does not mean that heroes will not have the tragedy of dying before they are born.

Chen Zhengtai believes that Li Shimin must have his own hole cards, and no one knows what they will be before this hole card is revealed.

But at least, as a clear card of the emperor, the new army must have a look, no worse than those Praetorian Guards.

As for Su Dingfang, Xue Rengui, and Heiya Changzhi, although they have flashed under the night sky of history like dazzling meteors in history, they are ...... now Can you really put all your hopes in them?

You know, what they may have to face are those good families in the land of Guanlong, these people who have always grown up in places where the people have always been strong? All of them are known for their bravery.

Not to mention, and for thousands of years? has squeezed out the world's resources and piled up the children of the world? These children of the world? It can be said that it is the essence of today, and countless dazzling military generals have emerged.

I have to say? It's still too low.

Think of it this way? Chen Zhengtai couldn't help but feel a little reckless? Careless.

Knowing this, the Chen family still stood on the side with more people.

Of course, this thought was only fleeting.

Because...... Life? Especially after two lifetimes? If we don't push history, don't let the wheels of history move forward? And only know how to survive secretly? If you don't change the unreasonable things in front of you now, do you have to wait until the whole world is dry? Until the volcano erupts, wait until people like Huang Chao raise their arms and exhale, and then have to dye the country blood red, will they give up?

Rather than so? Why not in a more secure way? To force those clans to consciously give up the interests in their hands, otherwise, when the thunder comes, will the Chen family be spared?

Now that he has a son and a guy named Jifan, Chen Zhengtai understands even more that he has no way back, and he will never be reluctant to face the thunder.

After taking a deep breath, he said, "The new army is training day and night, and all the supplies and weapons must be the best, from now on...... None of you shall slack off, for I will train as a soldier of a hundred battles. Other than that......"

Speaking of this, Chen Zhengtai glanced sideways at the widow of the military room and said, "Testament."

Fang Yiai immediately got up: "Yes." ”

Chen Zhengtai said: "Recording and joining the army, not only responsible for cases and official documents, you take the clerks, but also responsible for the ideology in the army." ”

"Thoughts?" Fang Yiai was stunned for a moment, and looked at Chen Zhengtai very incomprehensibly.

Chen Zhengtai said patiently: "We must organize the soldiers to read the newspaper and read, tell them what is the way of loyalty to the king, tell them what the meaning of their existence is, and teach them why the new army is different from other military horses." It also tells them how to live and why it is worth dying. You are responsible for this, you have read a lot of books, of course, this is not the point, the point is, I believe you can handle this matter well. ”

Fang Yiai couldn't help but say: "Isn't it a student to say this...... became their teacher. ”

"You can think of it that way." Chen Zhengtai said: "Imparting knowledge is one thing. They are officers and soldiers, how can they teach knowledge? So...... You need to take care of their lives at all times, make friends with them on weekdays, and write down any difficulties they have in their daily lives, even at home. Every soldier must keep a record, record their family situation, their daily heart, and what concerns they have. Occasionally, some of their activities can be organized, all in all...... You can't be rigid in indoctrination...... You must be short of a lot of manpower. You might as well go to the university hall, or think about your classmates, whether there are some talents, they want to join the army, you pick people from among them, if there are talents and fame, you can also join the army, you can consider it, give them the post of joining the army of nine grades, you take the lead in this matter, and set up a military office. Of course, you are still young now, and you are just recording the matter of joining the army, and you still have to let your senior brother Deng Jian come to this military mansion and let him do the long history of this military mansion, and you will be responsible for assisting him. ”

After a pause, Chen Zhengtai continued: "Tomorrow I will suggest to Your Majesty that Deng Jian be transferred to the new army. ”

This is simply a luxurious lineup, according to this, the civilian positions in the new army, only afraid of a lot, the leading long history is the champion and the Dali Temple Sizheng, Fang Yiai such a jinshi and Hanlin, but also just a record of joining the army, plus a large number of people and talents deployed at that time, just afraid of the scale of the military government, there are dozens of civilian officials, if you add some civil officials, I am afraid that it will break through 100 people. This is almost unheard of in other armies.

On the one hand, he is responsible for the handover of official documents, responsible for recording files, and may even deploy personnel, and may also be responsible for merit examinations in the future.

And this is only the tip of the iceberg, it also needs to assume the role of a teacher, organize people to read books and newspapers, and teach some knowledge.

To a certain extent, it also has a certain logistical function, and it needs to be concerned about the psychology of officers and men.

Fang Yiai is indeed young, but after all, he is a jinshi, and he soon realized that maybe in the future, the real center of the new army is this military office, at least in peacetime, only in wartime, the functions of the captains of each battalion will be more prominent.

Fang Yiai's whole person suddenly became energetic, and then said: "Senior Brother Deng, I have always admired him, it would be great for him to come to do a long history, as for the personnel, I will go to the school in a few days and say, try my best to select more excellent juniors." ”

Looking at his serious appearance, Chen Zhengtai nodded with satisfaction: "You are still young, follow Deng Jian to study hard." ”

"Whoa."

In this way, this luxurious new army can be regarded as established.

The 5,000 young men enlisted directly into the army, and the training of the recruits was carried out in advance, so there was time to prepare for muskets and artillery, as well as war horses.

As for the armor and swords, they were ready-made.

Although it is said that the money and grain are drawn from the household department and the military department, in fact, there are still many places where they have to pay for themselves, after all, ...... The new army is a bit over-specified, and other people have a soldier, from equipment to rations to military salaries, but only three times a month, and when they arrive at the new army, a person will have to pay 27 times a head, and no one can stand this, but it is conceivable that the military department would rather wipe his neck and commit suicide than pay this money.

Just do what he said, and the next day, Chen Zhengtai wrote a letter to implore Deng Jian to join the army.

Li Shimin didn't say a word, and immediately approved it.

This is a rare piece of good news for the imperial court.

During this time, the new army has been tossing and tearing everyone's brains, and everyone doesn't know His Majesty's intentions, especially for the forbidden army, this is something worthy of their vigilance!

This is an unprecedented recruitment of the children of hundreds of workers, Your Majesty's move, is it not to boost the status of hundreds of workers?

But as soon as Deng Jian left, everyone in Dali Temple was happy, no one liked this person, not to mention Dali Temple, but also other departments, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

This impermanent ghost, one day in Dali Temple, it makes people sleep, God knows what he wants to toss.

It's good to go to the army.

……

Liu Sheng followed a few of his partners and rushed into the camp.

To be honest, he himself was surprised to be selected, because he was relatively short, and he didn't report any expectations, many young men like him were very interested in this, and everyone was talking about it.

At night, when I was having dinner with my father, who had left work, a letter announcing his enlistment arrived.

Father Liu looked surprised, looking at the letter, but his face changed.

Liu's father thought differently from others, and many miners and laborers did encourage their children to join the army.

But Liu's father is now in a mechanical workshop, is the backbone of the craftsman, because the craft is better than others, so there is no need to make too much effort, but the salary is several times that of ordinary laborers and miners, in Liu's father's view, the future of his son, he has been arranged, and when the boy is older, he will be entrusted to take him to the workshop to do apprenticeship, follow himself, and learn this craft, which is regarded as the son inheriting his father's business, and he will be able to worry about food and clothing in the future.

And...... The Liu family is different from other people who have many children, Liu's father only has Liu Sheng, so he is almost deaf to the outside world's military affairs, and he never thought about letting his only son join the army!

"What is this?" At this time, Father Liu glared at Liu Sheng and asked.

"Join the New Army."

Father Liu frowned and said angrily: "Didn't you not be allowed to go in the first place?" ”

Looking at his father's ugly face, Liu Sheng was a little timid, but he still said: "They all went, how could I not go?" ”

Father Liu said with a stiff face: "Go back." ”

Liu Sheng hurriedly said: "I can't retreat, they said, I signed up, if I am selected, I must go, if not, I will be punished." Let alone...... I really want to go...... I read the newspaper that said......"

"You ......" Father Liu looked extremely stern, his face was pale, his body trembled slightly, and his rough hand slapped on the dining table.

Liu's mother wanted to turn around with worry between her eyebrows: "I said ......"

"It's none of your business." Father Liu said unreasonably: "If you say you are not allowed to go, you are not allowed to go, and if you dare to go, you will break your legs." ”

Liu Sheng snorted, still stubborn.

Father Liu said coldly: "Did you hear it?" ”

"I ......" Liu Sheng thought for a while and said: "I have to go, the newspaper says very clearly, why we are looked down upon as craftsmen is because of ...... We only covet the small profits before, what if we can earn a salary, after earning a salary, when we arrive in Chang'an City, don't we have to walk with our heads down? If everyone had such thoughts, they would not be able to hold their heads up for generations. Now the emperor is extraordinarily gracious and has formed a new army, so that people like us can raise their heads. Everyone wants to live a peaceful life and want to be comfortable, but is there any peace and comfort in this world? Therefore, I have to go, and in the future, I will untie my armor, and I will still inherit the family business and be a good blacksmith, but I can't do it now, this is called due righteousness, don't go, let others protect me, let me live comfortably here, I don't feel steady. ”

When Father Liu heard this, he immediately began to curse.

Liu Sheng ignored it.

But Liu's mother had to persuade hard, saying that even if she let the child listen to the persuasion, don't scold like this.

Liu's father was furious again and quarreled with Liu's mother.

Liu Sheng hurriedly finished eating, simply went back to his bedroom, and fell asleep.

He slept until dawn in a daze, this simple roof tiles, could not resist the movement next door, Liu Sheng seemed to hear Liu's father's cough, and his mother had to whisper: "Bring more dried meat, who knows if there is food in the camp, will bring a jar of sauce, he likes to eat." Have you packed your clothes...... I always feel worried, how dangerous it is in this army, in the future, I will use the Tang Dynasty, sooner or later, I will have to use the army, if I am not careful, I may take my life, he is still a child, what can he understand, do you really think it is so easy in the army? Bring a few more clothes, the weather is going to get colder...... I can't be angry with this stinky boy, he talks to me like this, I shouldn't have given birth to this little brute. ”

At this time, it was Liu's mother crying and crying.

Father Liu said with a displeased look: "What are you crying about, I didn't see you persuade me yesterday, but now I know that I can cry, in fact, it's okay, Carpenter Zhao and Zeng San's son next door also went, joined the army, and there is always someone to take care of." This army is brought by the Korean government, so there shouldn't be anything wrong, okay, don't cry, he's going to wake up later, since he really wants to go, let him go more steadily......"
