Wancheng.

On the school field outside the south city, 10,000 soldiers stand in formation, horizontal and vertical rows, full of energy, the autumn sun shines on the armor and swords and spears, but what is more intimidating is the bright eyes and loud shouts of the soldiers, although it is only a drill, but every step out is forward, every spear is stabbed out with all its might, and every cry is full of fighting spirit to win.

Battle flags flutter in the autumn wind, war drums echo over the battlefield, and 10,000 people are like a monster that has been gathering momentum for a long time, spreading its fangs and showing its steel claws, ready to devour any opponent at any time.

Zhou Yu stood on the platform, holding the general flag, his long body was jade, his white face was slightly red from the sun, his forehead was slightly sweaty, but his eyes were as firm as a mountain, carefully observing every corner of the big array, and issuing orders one after another.

Square formations, circular formations, straight formations, curved formations, one by one.

On the left side of the Chinese army's general platform, there is also a viewing platform. Yin sat in the middle of the martial arts ceremony, and behind him stood a group of teenagers, not yet of the age of wearing crowns, but each of them wore helmets, armor, and long knives around their waists, and they were no different from the soldiers in the audience. Although they didn't have to practice like the soldiers, they were also so hot that they were sweaty and their little faces were flushed after being exposed to the sun for a long time, but none of them shouted tired, and their eyes were blazing looking at the ever-changing formation.

Most of them are about 10 years old, and half of them have just graduated from kindergarten. Different from those students who were selected from the army for further study, after completing their basic studies, they entered the lecture hall to study, and the content of their study was mainly military, with a three-year study period, and after completing their studies, they entered each army as an attendant and staff officer of a senior general, and after reaching the age of 18, they were assigned to each battalion, and Qu Junhou, who led 200 people, began his military career.

Compared to those generals who were cut by ordinary soldiers, they have a higher starting point and higher achievements in the future. Being selected from so many classmates is enough to show that they are excellent, and no one is willing to show even a trace of weakness at this moment. Yin Duan took them to watch the soldiers, just to let them know the hard work of the soldiers. Only by knowing the hard work of the soldiers can we truly understand the soldiers and truly love the soldiers like children, instead of talking about the soldiers on paper.

It wasn't until the sun set in the west that the drill ended, Zhou Yu immediately evaluated, and then rewarded, rewarding those who excelled in the drill, the generals had their own rewards, and they received them after returning to the camp, and the ordinary soldiers were rewarded with money and wine, which were distributed on the spot. Under the envy of countless people, the rewarded soldiers stood up under the stage of the Chinese army, and the students of the martial arts hall served wine and paid money. There is only one bowl of wine and only two hundred money, but it can play a role in boosting morale, and everyone is hot for a while, and they are full of energy. Those who have been rewarded should continue to work hard, and those who have not been rewarded should go back to sum up their lessons and strive for the next reward.

After the reward, they returned to the battle formation and returned to the camp in turn.

Zhou Yu came to Yin Duan and asked Yin Duan very politely. He is not a student of the martial arts hall, but he has always been very polite to Yin Duan and is a disciple of the courtesy. Yin Duan was very polite, and after saying a few words, he asked the disciples to ask Zhou Yu questions. As soon as he finished speaking, a teenager raised his hand.

"General, I have something to ask."

Zhou Yu looked at it and smiled. "Wei Yan, you had a lot of questions when you were in kindergarten, and you still have a lot of questions, can you let others ask a few words first, and then you can go back to the city with me later, and let you ask enough, okay?"

Wei Yan nodded happily. "Good, good. If you ask, I'll go back to the city with the general later, and I'll go to see Mr. Cai by the way. ”

As soon as they heard that they were going to see Cai Yan, several teenagers shouted and wanted to go. Someone shouted: "General, don't you care?" We want to hear the gentleman play the piano and watch the general dance the sword. "It was lively for a while, and I couldn't see any seriousness anymore. Those teenagers who did not graduate from kindergarten looked at Wei Yan and the others with envy, with the relationship of Mr. Cai Yan, Wei Yan and the others had an innate advantage over them.

Yin Duan looked in his eyes, stroked his beard and said, "General, can the old man bother?" ”

Zhou Yu arched his hand and said: "I am willing to come to the sacrificial wine, I can't ask for it." Well, everyone here goes, how about it? I heard that this phase of the freshmen is full of heroes, and Mr. Handan and Mr. Hu from the county school have a lot of opinions on Yin Sacrifice Wine. Yin sacrificial wine, you can pay attention to it. ”

Yin Duan laughed, his eyebrows fluttering, and his snow-white hair was dyed with a layer of golden light in the setting sun.

The teenagers also bit each other's ears excitedly. Cai Yan is very famous in Nanyang, and many women take her as an example and also want to do learning and make their lives colorful. Especially those girls who graduated from kindergarten, either trying to find a way to go to the county school to continue their studies, or they want to enter the wood school to study wood science with Qin Luo, and some even want to enter the martial arts hall to join the army, anyway, few are willing to go home to be a female celebrity like their mothers, waiting to get married.

Of course they were happy to meet the legendary Mr. Cai.

Zhou Yu and Yin Duan returned to the city in the same car, closed the car door, and the smiles on their faces faded a little. Yin Duan sighed lightly: "Gong Jin, maybe I'm old, when I think of this expedition, my students don't know how many people will be on the battlefield, and I don't feel good in my heart." Alas, the world is in turmoil, a big war is about to start, how many people can really be crowned in the end? It will be a success, and ten thousand bones will wither. ”

Zhou Yu was silent for a moment. "Sacrificing wine and fighting in the army, if you just want to be a marquis and worship the general, this is indeed not worth it. But if we fight for peace in the world, it is worth it even if we die in battle. Sacrificial wine, 30 years of conquest, 30 years of education, a Jiazi and the world is peaceful, this is the hope of the people of the world, we are for the sake of personal merit? ”

Yin Duan bowed slightly. "Gongjin, I'm very pleased that you can think so. Of course, a soldier's conquest is what he wants, but if he only focuses on his personal merits, he will go astray. If it weren't for this, how could Dong Zhongying be ruined and laugh for the world. ”

"Don't worry about sacrificing wine, the merits and demerits are right and wrong, and the Cai Guild will give him justice."

Yin Duan sighed lightly: "Now that I think about it, it's better for me to be like this, although I am not rich and noble, I can be regarded as a disciple all over the world." I am old and cannot see the peaceful and prosperous times, but when I think that my disciples will fight with you in all directions and protect the territory and the people, I am very relieved and die without regrets. ”

"The sacrificial wine can be described as accessible." Zhou Yu praised it at the right time.

Yin Duan leaned against the car window, looking at the scenery outside the window, and suddenly remembered something, frowning slightly. After a while, he turned to Zhou Yu and said, "Gong Jin, Ling Zun is an official in Luoyang, has there been any letter recently?" ”

Zhou Yu smiled: "Yes." After the Battle of Junyi, Luoyang was basically stable, although Zhu Gong had a small illness, he was not in the way, and was planning to do things in Luoyang Tuntian. With the general taking care of these things, you can rest assured. ”

"I just don't worry about him. This Zhu Gongwei is ambitious and talented, but he is a righteous man. The current situation is so chaotic, how can he recuperate with peace of mind. Counting, it should be more than sixty, and let go when it's time to let go, don't think you're still young. If you have the chance, ask your father to persuade him. ”

Zhou Yu nodded in agreement, and as he was talking, he arrived at the gate of the city in front, Zhou Yu got out of the car, habitually glanced at the crowd, was suddenly stunned, and then smiled. He parted the crowd, walked up to a middle-aged man, and smiled.

"Xun Gongda, don't come to harm?"
