It was only a matter of time before the rebels attacked Taibei County, and Chen Ziqian knew it.

But at the moment, subduing Lin Xiaodao is the key, such a famous general, one person can defeat 100,000 soldiers, and when the time comes, I am afraid that I will not be able to deal with the rebels?

Chen Ziqian waved the herald back, and at this time, Lin Xiaodao happened to come out of the room.

The two looked at each other, and obviously, Lin Xiaodao also heard the information sent back by the herald just now.

"Adults are busy with official business, so it is inconvenient to be here, so it is better to take my mother away immediately." Lin Xiaodao arched his hand, he was already very reluctant to owe Chen Ziqian his kindness, and it would be too inauthentic to continue to stay and affect people's office.

"What is this called, brother, I treat you as a brother, don't slap me in the face, besides, you didn't hear the words of the county doctor, the old lady is tired and needs to recuperate, so don't toss her old man anymore." Chen Ziqian waved his hand, and Lin Xiaodao, who had spoken in the vernacular, was stunned.

"Well, that's it." Lin Xiaodao saluted with a serious face to express his gratitude.

Chen Ziqian was very annoyed by these vain etiquette, so he pulled Lin Xiaodao and walked towards the outside of the courtyard: "You also heard it just now, the enemy is now, I will tell you the truth." ”

"The total number of troops in Zhilin County is only 3,000, most of them are still militiamen and prisoners, and the combat effectiveness is really not very good, once the rebels attack, it will be difficult for Zhilin County to resist."

"I know that Brother Tai came from the north and traveled all the way, I understand that you have something unspeakable, but you must help me at this time."

Chen Ziqian said as he walked, and when he left the county office, he didn't forget to shout to the county government: "Don't you see any old people at home?" Go and get me two slaves and maidservants to serve me. ”

"Whoa!" The county man hurriedly took the order to leave, and in the past two days, he just felt that this little adult was very easy to get along with, why did he suddenly seem to have changed a person?

As soon as the county Cheng left, Lin Xiaodao immediately broke away from Chen Ziqian, took a step back and opened the distance: "Thanks to the adult's wrong love, since the adults have seen it, so-and-so is not hiding it." ”

"A certain name is Lin Xiaodao, his ancestral home is Pengtong County, Bozhou, and his ancestors have also been a general, but unfortunately his family fell into the middle of the road, and his generation was only appointed as a soldier under the command of Cangzhou Thorn Shi."

Lin Xiaodao bamboo tube poured beans, and even the family background and experience along the way said: "After Cangzhou was broken by the rebels, a certain did not want to surrender, so he took his mother to rush back to his hometown to be an idle farmer, but unexpectedly passing by here, the old mother was ill, and so far the money and food have run out, and she had to take out the family heirloom knife to sell." ”

"I was framed by a villain today, but fortunately I have the help of adults, and the knife is grateful." Lin Xiaodao said with a painful look on his face, unloaded the treasure knife on his waist, and dedicated it to Chen Ziqian: "My lord is seeking medical treatment for my mother and I don't think my mother and son are humble to take me in, the knife is not repaid, I am willing to offer this knife to show gratitude." ”

Chen Ziqian frowned slightly.

This is special, Lao Tzu hasn't opened his mouth to solicit it, and it is a long talk that directly plugs Lao Tzu's mouth.

Or say that you are a famous general, and the feelings have long seen that Lao Tzu has the heart to recruit.

Chen Ziqian sighed: "Since this knife is your ancestor, then you can keep it well, I am not trying to help you with this treasure knife, don't think about it." ”

"This ......" Lin Xiaodao was a little embarrassed, he felt that he had already said it clearly enough, and he was even willing to offer the ancestral treasure knife, why was he still not satisfied?

Of course Chen Ziqian is not satisfied, he not only wants a knife, but also a person!

"You don't have pressure, it's just a gesture to help you, if you really want to repay, then do me a small favor, with your help, maybe you can save the people of this county." Chen Ziqian pulled Lin Xiaodao and left.

It is certainly not so easy to recruit such a famous player, but he is not in a hurry.

Anyway, Lin Xiaodao's mother can't move when she is lying on the bed, and I'm afraid I won't be able to take you with more favorability?

The two came all the way to the barracks, and County Lieutenant Yang rushed over to greet them as soon as possible.

"I don't know if the adults are coming, and the humble duty is far away." Yang Zhiying arched his hand and said.

"I'll introduce you." Chen Ziqian introduced Lin Xiaodao and Yang Zhiying respectively, and then Yang Zhiying led the two into the barracks.

The soldiers were training on the school ground, and Lieutenant Yang gave a brief introduction to the specific drill subjects and progress.

Chen Ziqian nodded and said: "It's hard work Captain Yang, I came here today just to see how these soldiers are doing, I don't know if I can take the school one or two?" ”

"Your Excellency has an order, and you don't dare to disobey your humble duties, please wait, and your humble duties will go to the army." County Lieutenant Yang arched his hand and turned to leave, it could be seen that he was still quite confident in his ability.

After he left, Chen Ziqian pulled Lin Xiaodao and asked, "Brother Tai has fought with the rebels, what do you think of these soldiers?" ”

"My lord said before that most of these are militiamen, and some of them are prisoners?" Lin Xiaodao carefully glanced at the whole battalion, but he had also worked under the assassin Shi, this vision was naturally not comparable to ordinary people, not to mention that the commander was still 86 points high.

"In just two or three days, the county lieutenant has done a good job of training recruits like this." Lin Xiaodao commented very pertinently.

Chen Ziqian was dissatisfied and said, "Brother Tai, are you slapping me in the face?" With this rabble, can you afford a good sentence? ”

Lin Xiaodao's old face turned red, and then he said with a wry smile: "It is indeed a problem. ”

"That's what I want." Chen Ziqian said: "You can help me take a look later, don't worry about anything else, just say it if you have any problems, now that the war is imminent, these people are going to go to the battlefield desperately, brother Tai said a word, they may be able to walk off the battlefield alive." ”

"Adults love soldiers like children, and they admire knives." Lin Xiaodao arched his hand, and the expression on his face suddenly became serious.

Soon, the drums beat in the barracks, and Yang Zhiying held the order flag and began to train the troops.

All the troops gathered a total of 2,500 men, including 1,000 men under Liu Tong's command, who were sword and axe men and spearmen in the battalion.

Wang Ke's 1,000 men were the crossbowmen and shield bearers in the battalion.

Yang Zhiying commanded only 500 cavalry.

Knock knock knock......

The drums of war were beating in the field, and the various arms of the army were humming and maneuvering quickly on the school field, changing formations from time to time under the command of the command of the command flag, and the scene was quite spectacular.

But the layman looks at the bustle, and the insider looks at the doorway.

Lin Xiaodao's senses for these soldiers shook his head frequently.

Soon, with the end of the school examination, Yang Zhiying and others immediately came over to ask for advice.

Chen Ziqian originally wanted to lay a few words first, lest Lin Xiaodao say too ugly for a while and hurt the self-esteem of these people.

I never thought that Lin Xiaodao took the lead, and as soon as he spoke, he was ruthless: "These soldiers are on the battlefield, and the rebels can be easily annihilated with just a single charge, I really don't know what you want to do, a total of so many troops, you have to divide so many troops." ”

"The role of the shield hand is defense, can five hundred shields be able to defend against your formation?"

"Spearmen and axemen can also be arranged together? The spear was aimed at the cavalry, and what did the axemen follow? Kill the enemy or kill the horse? ”

"Crossbowmen are even more useless, they can't even do something as simple as bending bows and arrows, and when they go to the battlefield and face thousands of troops, they can't be scared to pee their pants one by one?"

"There are also cavalry, rushing out is a plate of loose sand, there is no formation at all, you think you are finely coordinated, but in fact it is all fancy shelves, not even fancy shelves."

The more Lin Xiaodao talked, the more angry he became, the most disgusting thing about leading troops to fight was these mediocre generals, they didn't have the ability to fart, and they were engaged in some battles that were not useful, but they didn't know that this was no different from the life of the grass and the people.

Lin Xiaodao was so deep in the play that he completely forgot that this was not his own soldier, and the atmosphere of the scene froze as soon as the words fell.

Yang Zhiying and the others turned pale, and the corners of their mouths twitched.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xiaodao added at this time: "If these are my soldiers, I will have to pull a few of you out and cut them first, it's just joking with the lives of soldiers!" ”
