Chapter 371: Heading South (80)

The Great Sui inherited the system of the Northern Zhou Dynasty of the Yuwen family, and raised troops in various counties in peacetime. In wartime, the troops were gathered, and the central commander was ordered to lead the expedition. And the soldiers in the county usually plough and practice in farming. The imperial court saved a lot of money on raising soldiers. And the vast majority of these county soldiers, who were self-cultivated farmers from good families, did not have the habits of those soldiers who had been soldiers for a long time in the previous generation, and those who either wanted to blackmail their superiors, or would rather plunder than fight.

It was precisely by adopting such a system of raising troops that the Northern Zhou Dynasty was able to confront the much richer and more powerful Gao Northern Qi with its barren land, and finally defeated the other party and unified the entire Northern China.

Since the Northern Zhou Dynasty, in each county, the most important task in front of the county guard is the military. Therefore, in general, in each county government office, there is a large school field, which is used to gather generals and gather troops.

Although it was the end of the world, the system was gradually collapsing. Even the various Yingyang Prefectures, which were originally just mobilization training institutions, have now become legions that actually fight. In the inland counties, often the military affairs of each county were abolished, and the original school drum pavilions were also repurposed for other purposes. But among the border counties, these counties are all remnants of the war preparations for the reign, and they still remain!

At this moment, on the school grounds of the Mayi County Government Office, in the drum pavilion set up in the school field, several guards are beating a huge leather drum. The drums thundered, just reverberating inside and outside the school grounds, resounding throughout Shanyang City!

The sound of the drums is exactly the order of the generals.

On the festival hall of the government office, Wang Rengong, who has always dressed in simple and comfortable clothes. At this moment, he changed his armor and knelt behind the first few cases by pressing his sword. His son Wang Zhongtong, also wearing armor, knelt upright behind Wang Rengong's side, pressed his hands on his knees, held his breath and remained motionless.

Inside and outside the festival hall, the guards are dense, the expression is solemn, and the blades are like a forest.

The first to arrive was Wang Ze, and when he entered, the armor collided, and there was a sonorous sound. After entering the festival hall, he just gave a military salute to Wang Rengong with a flat chest.

Wang Rengong just waved his hand, and Wang Ze turned to the top of the side, and stood still, his body was tall and unmoving. turned out to be quite a general.

Wang Zhongtong was behind, but he just glanced at his cousin coldly.

Although Wang Zhongtong was wearing armor, he was addicted to wine all the year round, and his face was blue and gray. Although he tried his best to put on his armor, he only felt that the weight of these dozens of catties was heavy, but fortunately, he was kneeling and sitting beside his father, if he stood and served, Wang Zhongtong was afraid that he would faint from exhaustion.

Which is like Wang Ze, standing there, wearing armor and body, his waist and back are always straight, among the children of the Wang family, he really has an outstanding heroic spirit!

Even Wang Rengong, although he was full of worries, but when Wang Ze entered, he couldn't help but take a second look, nodded slightly, and looked very satisfied.

After the king, the generals of the county came one after another. These county generals, since the last military rebellion, many of the children of the Wang family have withdrawn from the army. and promoted the old man of Mayi Yingyang Mansion again. For a while, the low morale of the original Ma Yi generals was lifted again.

Although the combat power is not as good as the group of tigers and wolves in Hengan Yingyang Mansion, Mayi Yingyang Mansion is also a border army after all. As soon as the drums sounded, these generals came one by one, everyone put on their helmets and armor, and everyone entered, all of them gave a flat-chested military salute, and then stood aside. In the festival hall, only the sound of the collision of the nail leaves was heard, and the slightest human voice was heard.

Wang Rengong's gloomy face finally showed a little smile, and he bowed his head very slightly in approval. And Wang Zhongtong, who was kneeling behind, was even more enthusiastic. Such tigers and wolves are all under their Wang family's father and son, what are they still doing here to endure Liu Wuzhou? Even the famous Tang Guogong Li Yuan may not be able to be a blow to this Ma Yi tiger wolf!

If it weren't for the fact that the armor was too heavy, Wang Zhongtong might have to stand up, raise his arms and shout, take the lead in asking his father to fight, first sweep the Mayi County, and then go south to fight for the world, so that the Taiyuan Wang family will become the master of the whole world!

In the festival hall, dozens of Ma Yi Ying Yang Mansion generals stood solemnly, and everyone's eyes were focused on Wang Rengong. Just wait for Wang Rengong to speak. Everyone knows the situation at this moment, and the beacon signal of the Turks' southward movement has already been ignited for a long time. Suddenly, Wang Rengong summoned everyone, maybe he would do the final blow and end the situation of the two heroes of Mayi County!

The drumming finally subsided, and Wang Rengong, who had been pinching his fingers under several cases, slowly let go of his hand.

However, there are only more than 90 times, and at this moment, all the generals who have gathered in the city and are not on duty have been gathered. Not more than hundreds. Originally, Wang Rengong still had the plan to take the opportunity to deal with the belated generals to establish his prestige, but now he is no longer needed.

He rolled his gaze and glanced at the generals. These generals all have respectful and obedient faces.

Wang Rengong pressed the sword and got up slowly, he was tall and tall, although he was old, but at this moment, he was standing in armor, still standing in the depths, and his majesty was infinite. Even a few days ago, there was a rebellion. However, Wang Rengong's prestige has not declined greatly, and his past reputation is still there, and he can still firmly control the situation in Mayi Yingyang Mansion. In these troubled times, but as a general, they also need such a prestigious commander to follow, so that in this troubled time, they can win their own fame!

Wang Rengong said in a deep voice: "How about a certain pair?" ”

The generals couldn't help but glance at each other, how should they start answering these words?

Since Wang Rengong became the lord, he slaughtered the people of the whole county, and also provided enough food for the entire Yingyang Mansion in Mayi. It also expanded the Mayi Yingyang Mansion to the scale of tens of thousands of soldiers, and many people followed the tide. Although too many children of the Wang family controlled the army for a while, after a small rebellion, Wang Rengong let most of the children of the Wang family withdraw from the army and promoted them all.

This kindness is indeed nothing to be faulted with. Although Wang Rengong's methods for the people of Ma Yi were too spicy, many people had a slander in their hearts. But in this world, there should also be people who are unlucky, what can they do when they are soldiers and eat food?

Since everyone is still in the Yingyang Mansion in Mayi, they are working for Wang Rengong in a down-to-earth manner. But what is the send, Wang Rengong just orders, can everyone still not obey orders? What else do you do by saying these things to ask you?

The generals turned their minds, and no one answered for a while. Seeing that Wang Rengong's face was gloomy again, Wang Ze had already stepped out of the crowd and bowed with his fists clenched.

"The county is benevolent and righteous, high and reaches the sky, and the spring soil is penetrated. But there are people who don't want to be broken for the county and die! The county prince has been sent, even if the sword mountain is a sea of fire, the last general will only move forward! ”

The generals finally reacted, and they all clasped their fists and saluted: "The last general waits but depends on the order of the county official!" ”
