Chapter 41: Departure
In the next few days, all the people of the Clothless Army had more detailed arrangements under the assignment of Zhou Cang and others. For example, after listening to Zeng Yu's request to train the soldiers according to the standards of the Great Qin Ruishi, he applied to Zeng Yu to name them the Ruishi Battalion, and Zeng Yu naturally approved it.
The Ruishi battalion currently has 1,500 soldiers, plus 50 of Wang Qing's personal soldiers, led by a personal soldier captain. and ten of Qin Fen and Xiang Zhi's personal soldiers. Originally, Wang Qing's personal soldiers were the sixty-seven soldiers who had greeted him at the foot of the mountain before, Wang Qing chose a personal soldier captain and fifty people as his personal soldiers, and the other sixteen people let them wait for Qin Fen and Xiang Zhi respectively. These soldiers originally wanted to follow Zeng Yu, but Qin Fen and Xiang Zhi are currently under Wang Qing's command, and they are his lieutenants, so they have no opinion.
As for Wu Qin and his three brothers, they chose 300 men and horses to be stationed in the No. 2 camp at the exit of Canglongling. They trained there, and at the same time shouldered the heavy responsibility of guarding Canglong Ridge.
And Pei Yuanshao's reserve soldiers, after screening, only 700 people were selected, but considering that the unclothed army has just moved to Jinniu Mountain, there are many things, and it may be necessary to wait for Zeng Yu to go down the mountain before he can start training.
Originally, Zeng Yu thought that there would be more soldiers who wanted to participate in the training, but he didn't expect that only about half of the men and horses were willing. After listening to Pei Yuanshao's report on this screening, Zeng Yu asked Qin Qi to stay in the cottage and arranged for him to be in charge of ore mining, which was under the jurisdiction of Zhou Cang. Although Qin Qi wanted to follow Zeng Yu to the county seat, he also knew the importance of iron ore mining and accepted Zeng Yu's arrangement.
As for Pei Yuanshao, he will be mainly responsible for the training of this department in the future, and he can now be said to be completely convinced of Zeng Yu, he has long lost the gangsterism he used to have in Woniu Cottage, and the whole person is full of passion. After the affairs on Jinniu Mountain are settled, he will lead the 700 men and horses to be stationed at the No. 1 camp at the foot of the mountain. The No. 1 camp is relatively spacious, and their 700 people can not only play a role in vigilance, but also better training.
Zeng Yu was relieved to see that all the departments of the Wuyi Army were developing in an orderly manner according to their own requirements, and he asked Zhu Wen to inform his soldiers to start preparations, and the next day he went down the mountain and set off to Anping County.
Zhu Wen was also shocked when he heard that he was leaving so quickly, but he was now used to obeying Zeng Yu's orders, and he didn't ask too much, so he went to ask his soldiers to pack up.
Zeng Yu also sent someone to inform Sun Hao and let all the people in Qianlong Village, as well as Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao, come here at night after Wang Qing finished training the soldiers, and they would gather before parting.
At seven o'clock in the evening, after Wang Qing finished training the soldiers, he asked the soldiers to go to eat and rest, and he walked quickly to the conference hall. At this time, everyone else had already arrived, and it turned out that they knew that they had heard the notice of Zeng Yu's personal soldiers, and that Zeng Yu would come down the mountain the next day, so they came over very early. When Wang Qing came in, the atmosphere in the hall was not as relaxed as before, and there was a little heaviness of parting.
Zeng Yu saw Wang Qing coming, and hurriedly said: "Ziwu is here, sit down quickly, let's talk well." ”
"Yes, big brother." Wang Qing's voice was also a little choked, he could say that he had been following Zeng Yu since he could remember, thinking that after tomorrow's separation, he didn't know when he would see each other again, and he wanted to see him off happily, so that Zeng Yu could rest assured, but he would not hide his feelings, and when he spoke, he was reluctant to give up between brothers.
"We are only temporarily separated, and there will be many days when we will see each other in the future, so we don't have to be so heavy." Zeng Yu heard Wang Qing's voice and looked at the others. Although he himself doesn't like parting, as the lord, he can't let this atmosphere affect everyone's mood.
"Big brother is right, this time down the mountain, big brother is for us to have a better future, we should congratulate us." Sun Hao knew what Zeng Yu meant, so he agreed.
"That's right, everyone be happy, let's wish the lord all the best." Zhou Cang raised his glass and said.
When everyone heard this, they all raised their glasses to Zeng Yu. Zeng Yu naturally raised the wine glass on the table, and the wine entered his throat, temporarily suppressing the sadness of parting.
Next, everyone said some interesting things to each other, and the people of Qianlong Village told Zhou Cang about their growth on Taihang Mountain, as well as their respective parents, for example, Wang Qing was almost forced to marry by his father and married a girl in the village, and then it was Wang Qing who went to find Sun Hao and asked the village chief to come forward so that there was no fact, but Wang Qing was indeed frightened that time.
Wang Qing was exposed by them, and he also took revenge on them, and told them all the troubles of other people in Qianlong Village, and the result was naturally that everyone took turns to toast him, and even Zhu Wen went to make up a glass, but fortunately, Wang Qing had a good amount of wine, and everyone was still restrained, otherwise he, the commander of the Ruishi Battalion, would not be able to get up the next day.
Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao saw these people in Qianlong Village making fun of each other, and both of them were very envious. They told everyone how the two met, the family was killed by the Xiongnu and Xianbei and other alien races, they led the children of the same country to flee, met others who suffered the same experience on the way, and then led everyone how to cross thousands of miles, from Jiuyuan to Shangdang.
Zeng Yu and the others listened to the experience of Zhou Cang and others, and they were all angry at the cruelty of the alien race, and they also sympathized with Zhou Can and their suffering, and they all said that they must help Zhou Cang and others avenge in the future. At the same time, they also admired Zhou Cang and them, in the long process of wandering, they could still maintain their hearts, did not rob and bully the common people, never hurt people's lives when robbing merchants, and some even left some money for each other.
Everyone drank for three hours, chatted for three hours, almost everyone drank slightly, Zeng Yu opened his mouth and ended here today, he has to leave tomorrow morning, and everyone else has something to do, so let everyone go back to rest first. After the other people communicated today, the comradeship between them was also deeper, and after saluting Zeng Yu, they all walked to their respective residences, and naturally Zeng Yu sent his own soldiers to send them all home.
After a while, the soldiers who escorted them all came back and reported to Zeng Yu that everyone had arrived at their respective residences. Zeng Yu asked the soldiers to rest, there is no need to stand guard today, Jinniu Mountain is also safe now. Zhu Wenwen wanted to refuse, but Zeng Yu said that he needed to protect his safety next, if he didn't rest well today, wouldn't it be more dangerous to go down the mountain, Zhu Wen also went to rest after hearing it.
There was nothing to say all night, and just after seven o'clock the next morning, Zeng Yu got up and asked the soldiers to carry dry food and money and prepare to set off. He didn't inform Sun Hao of them, because he didn't want everyone to feel the atmosphere of parting.
Soon, the soldiers were all packed, Zeng Yu brought his books and formation diagrams, put the Jinghong bow on his back and went out. At this time, Zhu Wen had already led all the pro-soldiers to gather outside the door, and there were three people in front, Gu De, Wei Feng and He Yan.
Zeng Yu looked at them, then said "go", and took the lead to walk forward. Zhu Wen came over to take over Zeng Yu's burden, originally he wanted Zeng Yu to let the Jinghong bow on his back, but Zeng Yu said that the weapon was not used, he just held it himself, and he could also shoot the bow to kill the enemy at a critical time.
They walked around the school yard in front of the camp and down the hill, and when they were met by soldiers, they all stopped to salute them. Zeng Yu also nodded his head one by one, and told the soldiers to train hard and strive to make more achievements in the future.
As they passed by the school grounds, they saw that all the soldiers in the Sharp Battalion were having breakfast, ready to start today's training. Zeng Yu didn't alarm them, quickly passed the school field, and after going out from the gate of the camp, he went straight to the bottom of the mountain.
When he arrived at the No. 2 camp at Canglong Ridge, at this time he estimated that the soldiers in Wu Qin's department should have also started training, and he heard the sound of soldiers training inside at the gate of the camp. But when he entered the No. 2 camp, the first thing he saw was not the soldiers who were training, but a group of people who should be in other places, they were Zhou Cang, Pei Yuanshuo, Sun Hao, Wang Qing, and the other seven people in his Qianlong Village.
It turned out that they guessed that Zeng Yu would not inform them, so they got up early in the morning and waited for him here in the No. 2 camp, which was the only way down the mountain.
When Zeng Yu saw them, he also stopped, stepped forward, and hugged each other, as did Gude and the other three behind him. When it came to Zhu Wen, everyone told him to protect Zeng Yu, and Zhu Wen naturally patted his chest and promised.
After that, Zeng Yu also took a look at the soldiers trained by Wu Qin and them, and at first glance, they all had relatively thick upper limbs, which were suitable for practicing bows and arrows. They also knew from their own commanders that Zeng Yu knew that he was going down the mountain today, and when they saw Zeng Yu coming, everyone stopped what they were doing, knelt down on one knee and said in unison: "I wish the lord a victory and success!" ”
Zeng Yu asked them to get up and let everyone wait for his good news, in the future, everyone in the unclothed army can become officers and soldiers, and everyone has the hope of making meritorious contributions, and they can be crowned wives and sons.
After saying goodbye to everyone, Zeng Yu took Gu De and the other three, and behind him Zhu Wen led a hundred personal soldiers, and the group walked down the mountain along Canglong Ridge.
Wang Qing and the others looked down at the exit of Canglong Ridge and saw them advancing step by step, until they walked out of Canglong Ridge and walked out of sight, and then they went back.
They also know that their tasks are very heavy in the future, and the unclothed army is their foundation. Zeng Yu handed over the unclothed army to them and let them develop, and they had to give Zeng Yu a satisfactory answer.
Zeng Yu went to Luoyang to seek officials, and it is estimated that it will take half a year to come and go. They decided that within half a year, the unclothed army would not only change the world, but completely change its appearance from the inside out, as a congratulatory gift to Zeng Yu after Zeng Yu returned to Anping County.
Zeng Yu naturally didn't know the specific thoughts of a few people, but he knew that when he came back from Luoyang, Sun Hao, Wang Qing and others would definitely not let him down. What he is thinking about now is Liu Neng and them in Anping County, as well as the current situation in the world.
