Chen Pu frowned slightly. Captain Shang Cheng, she had a slight impression of this name, but at this time, she couldn't remember where she had heard it mentioned, and she couldn't remember what brilliant things this person had done. Listening to Wen Mu's tone when he mentioned the name of this border military captain, he was solemn and full of admiration, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised. Peeking at the faces of the officers around him, he sighed and shook his head with a look of embarrassment and admiration, obviously this border military captain is not a nobody. However, she herself had no clue, and the majesty of General Zhuguo did not allow her to expose her ignorance in front of her subordinates, so she smiled and pretended to groan.

If she doesn't speak, how dare others be rude and speak? More than a dozen people stood silently, making the scene of reunion on the battlefield for the rest of their lives suddenly become cold and a little weird. The cool breeze is slow, the sky is high and the grass is low, the war horse is sad and the wounded soldier **, in the desert sadness and desolation, someone suddenly remembered in surprise that this Shang Cheng seemed to be "assigned" to a remote and remote military village to be a commander because he had a deep holiday with Li Wei and Li Shen's brothers.

Wen Mu had already seen that Chen Zhuguo didn't remember who Shang Cheng was, and he was trying to remind him quietly with his words in his stomach, while listening to the sound of horses' hooves in the west, Zhao Shishi had already led thirty or forty Zhao soldiers back.

Zhao Shizao saw a circle of officers here, and ordered the soldiers to "treat the wounded and search for the remnants of the enemy", so he stuck the bloodstained iron spear into the ground, turned over and dismounted, and came over with a whip and said with a smile: "The adults are coming so fast!" The monk brother also asked me to pick you up, but I didn't expect you to have arrived. As he spoke, he spat bloody spit, turned his head to look around, but didn't see the camel team carrying the grain baggage, and asked suspiciously, "Lord Wen, aren't you leading the rear team?" How I didn't see it. What about them? Where are they all located? Master Wen, where is the rear team?! The more he spoke, the louder he became, and the last sentence almost became a roar, staring at Wen Mu viciously with a hideous face, and his hand was already holding the small silver knife pinned to his waist.

Wen Mu hesitated for a moment and said with difficulty: "The rear team will be in ...... immediately"

"That is, your mother!" Zhao Shishi interrupted his words with a split face. "Where is the back team now? Which direction? How far away? ”

The corners of Wen Mu's mouth twitched violently. But he didn't scold back, and now even if Zhao Shishi cut him in half on the spot, it can't be said that he was wronged. This matter is indeed that he did not do it right, violated Shang Cheng's military order, and betrayed Shang Cheng's trust in him. But he left the rear team, and he also had a last resort, these officers did not dare to point fingers in front of Shang Cheng, but they could give orders to him, no matter who these people had higher ranks and positions than him, he could not fail to obey the orders they said, not to mention that he was also worried about Chen Zhuguo's safety...... He swallowed, frowned, and said, "...... It is five miles to the northeast. I've left a hundred soldiers with the guards, and they're rushing here......"

"I'll settle accounts with you!" Zhao Shishi dropped a cruel word and turned around and left.

This group of soldiers came and went back and forth, and from beginning to end, no one gave a military salute to Chen Pu, who was covered in red robes and red armor, and they didn't take the group of people here seriously. A dozen officers and three female guards looked at each other as they looked at the departing horse caravan, not knowing what to do. Instead, Chen Pu asked casually: "Captain Wen, what's going on with this rear team?" ”

"General Yu, we took a lot of horses, camels and food baggage along the way, and rescued more than 200 people, all of whom were organized to follow the team behind."

Chen Pu nodded thoughtfully and said approvingly: "The army is newly defeated, people's hearts are fluctuating, I can't imagine that you are still so thorough in doing things, this is very rare." ”

Wen Mu bowed down and said, "Mu doesn't dare to be a general." Since the dispersion of the army, all the advances and retreats of our department have been done by the business captains, and Mu will never dare to take credit. ”

Chen Pu frowned again. As soon as she praised Wen Mu, Wen Mu "didn't dare to be" once, could it be that she, the general of the Pillar State, was not right? And Wen Mu put all the credit on Shang Cheng's head, which also made her a little dissatisfied. What does it mean that all initiatives are planned by the surname businessman? Could it be that this person does not consult with others beforehand and does not listen to their advice? From this point of view, although this border military academy captain Shang Cheng is brave and good at fighting, most of the people are arbitrary and arrogant......

Wang Yi had already met with the later officers, and because Chen Pu was present, he was not good at talking to a few familiar colleagues, so he stayed with Chen Pu's guards. The situation of Zhao Shishi's coming and going also fell in his eyes. He didn't say anything, he was really angry with this little soldier who regarded the officers as nothing, and even a little dissatisfied with Shang Cheng. At this time, seeing that Chen Pu was silent, he stepped forward and whispered: "This Shang Cheng is the monk in Yi County who has become a monk and returned to the world as Admiral Li said......"

As soon as he reminded him, Chen Pu remembered it. After the year, she went from Shangjing to Yanshan again, when Li Wei set up a banquet in the Governor's Mansion, he did mention this Shangcheng, the newly promoted officer after the Yandong War last year, although he made some contributions, but this person has a bad character, "arrogant and strong, so happy, ignorant of the overall situation, and greedy for lust", so he was sent to the local area by the Weifu tribe to be a commander.

As soon as Wen Mu saw Wang Yi's words, Chen Zhuguo's face immediately became gloomy, and he knew that it was most likely Wang Yi who was playing tricks behind his back, so he arched his hand and said: "Captain Shang is actually the former battalion captain of Fan Quanji's main battalion of the Yanshan Central Army. ”

As soon as he said this, a group of officers were in an uproar. Previously, they only knew that Shang Cheng had the nicknames of "Shang Monk" and "Shang Blind", but they didn't know that he still had such qualifications. But everyone thought about it and felt unreasonable, putting aside the blind man one by one, Fan Quanji was a fierce general who had made great achievements, and the soldiers they led had the reputation of "the first battalion of Yanshan", no matter what, these two could not be connected with a border army commander. There are also people who are quick to remember that Shang Chengcheng became famous in Yandong last year, and Ji Zhengfan Quan only began to emerge after the Yandong War last year, and even the first battalion of Yanshan brought by these two people was also the proud soldiers who fought during the Yandong War last year, and all three of them were related to the Yandong War, and it is difficult to ensure that the first battalion of Yanshan is the soldier brought out by Shang Cheng. Looking at the tragic battlefield around him, and weighing the comparison of the strength of the enemy and us in this hand-to-hand battle of life and death, I couldn't help but shudder, and I had already believed Wen Mu's words in my heart, one by one, a blind man is a blind man! Sure enough, it's a lot of guts! Sure enough, it's a good skill!

Thinking about it, two pennants had already appeared a few miles to the west. The cyan border military command flag and the blue guard order flag were raised high and erected straight, and the horns of the flag fluttered lightly with the breeze. Hundreds of poorly dressed cavalry soldiers did not line up, they all carried swords and spears, and followed behind the military flags in a scattered procession, and from such a distance, the soldiers could still be vaguely heard laughing and laughing and clamoring.

The officers here are all veterans, and when they see this scene, they know that this battle is a great victory. Originally, in this situation, everyone should greet to congratulate and condole, but Chen Zhuguo stood still, no one in the big guy could rob her first, and she frowned and her face was cloudy, but she didn't say a word, everyone, look at me, I look at you, everyone is afraid of touching General Zhuguo's moldy head and hitting his nose, so he has no choice but to be a stuffy gourd.

Shang Cheng walked in the middle of the team, discussing the gains and losses of this battle with Sun Zhongshan as he walked, and the two of them agreed that Zhao Shishi, who was the first to start from the south, should remember the first merit of this battle, and it was all because Zhao Shi disrupted the enemy's arrangement that he won so easily.

Bao Kan pouted on the back of the horse next to him and said sour words: "That's his shit luck!" If he had done it a little earlier, and had frightened the enemy's rangers, we would not have been enough to break through the gaps in the teeth. I see, it's still adults who lead the troops well, so many cowardly soldiers who have been defeated and scattered, they haven't dialed much, and they haven't lectured much, they are strong soldiers when they are put out, and they are warriors when they are pulled up, tsk...... The ancient generals are nothing more than that. ”

Shang Cheng was amused by his explicit sycophant. After laughing a few times, he suddenly turned his arm over his shoulder and pressed his shoulder blade, and his facial features moved in pain. It took him a long time to let go of his hand, and he grinned at Sun Bao and the two and a few concerned soldiers around him, and said with a grim face: "That Tuqi man has the ability...... My face was split open by me, and the wrong horse could still hang me up. It's a man. ”

Sun Zhongshan said slowly: "If the big tent soldiers don't have some skills and means, it is impossible to crisscross the grassland for more than 300 years. We won the battle today, and if it weren't for the stone that unexpectedly brought them a guy, the result would have been really unpredictable. He pursed his lips, drooped his eyebrows, and paused for a long time before he said, "It's not wrong for our soldiers to fight directly on the side in two ways, but we just rely on the horn to communicate the news, and it is inevitable that it will also give the enemy a warning, so that they have to be prepared in advance, and they still have to think of a more hidden method." ”

Shang Chengdao: "There is no way to do this. In order to keep in touch, in addition to relying on people to pass on horses, you can only rely on the flag, although neither can achieve absolute secrecy, but for thousands of years, no one has a better idea. He slowly crumpled the few clotted pieces of blood between the horse's mane, letting the dark brown dregs leak between his fingers. If you really want to do it without losing your secrets and not losing your chance, you can only rely on the tacit understanding between the officers leading the team and the training level and quality of the soldiers, and you can do both of them," he shook his head as he said this. "Easier said than done......"

Sun Zhongshan said sincerely: "I think adults can do both. ”

He walked on Shang Cheng's right side, Shang Cheng could only turn half sideways if he wanted to see him, but Shang Cheng didn't close his eyes for a day and a night, from the left army camp to the bank of the Alegu River, calculating and planning and adding a series of fierce battles, he was already tired physically and mentally, no matter how hard he struggled, his eyebrows were full of exhaustion and fatigue that could not be concealed. He pressed the saddle bridge with both hands and seemed to be overwhelmed, and said to Bao Kan: "Look at what other people Zhongshan said? Learn something! You've been with me for so long, and you've never been in the right place! ”

Bao Kan smiled and said, "My lord, forgive me. I haven't read a book under my job, and I can't compare to Captain Sun. ”

Sun Zhongshan ignored the jokes of the two of them, and continued to talk to himself: "The adults govern the army, leniency and moderation, sparseness and moderation, the law is straightforward, the rewards and punishments are fair, the prudent behavior is self-disciplined, and the strength of oneself is the only one, and every battle must be the first soldier, and the rest of the night must be appeased and then lie down one by one, if it cannot be achieved, it should be self-gouging." ”

Shang Cheng and Bao Kan had already stopped laughing and listening. Sun Zhongshan's words were all in the language of Wen Crepe, and Bao Kan, who was almost illiterate, didn't even understand half of the guess, blinking his eyes and looking ignorant. Although Shang Cheng is not used to this way of speaking, he reads a lot and can roughly understand what Sun Zhongshan means. Listening to Sun Zhongshan's last sentence, he said categorically, and there was a faint sound of gold and stone, and he didn't know what was going on, and the thought of "it's hard to know himself" suddenly jumped out of his heart.

He sat up straight on horseback, pushed up his blindfold, put his hands on the saddle bridge and said nothing, his eyes looking at the horizon of grass and green sky at the end of the grassland, and then he said slowly: "Zhongshan looks down on me." He stood up with his palms and motioned to Sun Zhongshan not to interrupt him, his voice was indescribably lonely and tired. You haven't seen the battalion I led first, have you? Lao Bao has seen ......"

Bao Kan tightened his lips, nodded and said, "The first battalion of Yanshan." The elite of the elite. ”

Shang Cheng's tired face also showed a smile: "Yes, it is indeed elite, and they are all elite soldiers fought on the battlefield." He gestured to the elated soldiers at the front and back of the line. See these soldiers? After a few more battles, two more hard battles to win, morale and self-confidence, they will also become fierce soldiers in a hundred battles. He squinted his eyes and looked ahead and smiled softly, "Under the conditions of cold weapon warfare, what is the most important thing for a small team to meet the enemy?" Is it operations research? Is it computing? Is it equipment? Or something else? None of them. The most important thing is will and determination. It is the will and determination of the officers. An officer who has the will to fight and die at any time will definitely be able to bring out a team of soldiers who dare to fight and fight to the death. A pack of wolves follows a sheep, and the wolf becomes a sheep; And when a flock of sheep follows a wolf, the sheep will also become a wolf. ”

Sun Zhongshan and Bao Kan frowned, both with a look of understanding.

After a while, Bao Kan asked suspiciously: "What is a cold weapon war?" ”

Shang Cheng pulled out the scimitar, touched the blade that had been cut in his hand and said, "This is a cold weapon." ”

Bao Kan sighed, but Sun Zhongshan asked in a deep voice, "...... Is there still ***? ”

"There should be." Shang Cheng shook his head and smiled, and said, "The world is so big, maybe there will be ***...... Who knows? He now regrets his words. Although the words of the two friends were suspected of flattery, they could be heard from the bottom of their hearts, and in addition to the great victory, he was also in a mood of excitement and hesitation, and he forgot his words for a while. If Bao Kan listened, it would be forgotten, but Zhongshan was cautious and thoughtful, and followed the words to peel off the cocoon, although it would not expose his unknown origin, but it would inevitably make himself busy for a while...... After thinking about it, he changed the topic: "What about Qian Laosan?" Why hasn't this dog come back yet? Do you want to send someone to find it? ”
