Chapter 269: The General Has a Long Knife
Li Guang looked at Ran Min and the cheering soldiers of the whole army, and laughed twice, as if he was very satisfied.
"How, General Su?" Li Guang asked Su Xin, Zhang Cigong and others.
"The last general is served." Su Xin hugged his fists, but it was simple.
"I'll take it too." Zhang Cigong and Zhao Xin also said, "But this is the first game, there are other competitions behind, and the officers and men of the Northern Army will definitely not disappoint the lieutenant!" After that, he looked at Qin Cheng and said, "General Qin, are your troops ready?" ”
"Of course." Qin Cheng saw that Zhang Cigong's tone eased a lot, and he was also happy to give a smile.
"General Zhang, what you said is wrong." Li Guang waved his hand, glanced at Zhang Cigong and the others, and said: "If you wait for the three soldiers to win, the general will not be very happy, and in the same way, even if your three soldiers are all defeated, the general will not be disappointed." Today, I hope that all the generals will understand that this is a competition within our Northern Army, not a contest between the inside and the outside. The 6,000 soldiers of the hussar battalion have been members of the northern army since they were stationed in our northern army camp on the first day, and they are your siblings! The 100,000 soldiers of the Northern Army are all subordinates of the general, and regardless of whether they win or lose, the general's expectations for you are the same. Doing duty for the Han Dynasty and being loyal to His Majesty, this is the mission of the Northern Army, and the mission of every one of the 100,000 soldiers! Let's put it openly, it is the mission of all Han armies! Do you understand what Ben Jiang means? ”
"I'll understand!" When everyone heard this, they all responded with their fists.
Li Guang nodded, and said with a smile: "Today's competition is the opponent, tomorrow on the battlefield, it is the siblings of life and death, but there are contradictions, it doesn't matter, let's be clear, the winner and the undefeated should be improved." When it comes to the battlefield, no one can drag everyone back!
Okay, the subject of mounted archery has been compared, what should I do next? ”
"Hand-to-hand combat." Zhang Cigong replied.
"Okay, let's get started."
Li Guang was not pretentious enough to let Qin Cheng, Zhang Cigong and others immediately shake hands or apologize to each other or something, this is not the posture of a man in the army. The men who got up from the army all had a momentum, and if they really wanted to be little daughters, it would be counterproductive. It's just that after today's battle, coupled with Li Guang's words, the hearts of Zhang Cigong and the others have changed, and when they look at Qin Cheng again, they don't have such strong hostility.
This is true not only of the generals such as Zhang Cigong, but also of the soldiers below. In the final analysis, there is no deep hatred between everyone, and there is nothing that can't be overcome, but it is just that there is no smoothness in one breath. Everyone speaks with their own strength, wins the other party's heart, the other party recognizes you, admires you, and some friction will pass.
The men in the army, when they go to the battlefield, they all put their lives in the hands of each other, how can there be so many intrigues between each other.
After the riding and archery competition, it is hand-to-hand combat, and then there are also competitions in subjects such as knife skills and low angles. The soldiers of Zhang Cigong's three divisions and the soldiers of the hussar battalion showed their magical powers, and countless cattle people vied with each other to show their faces and won the applause of the house.
By the end of the competition, the relationship between the soldiers of the hussar battalion and the three departments of Zhang Cigong and even the entire Northern Army was a lot closer, and the previous situation of mutual dissatisfaction was now seen under the hands of the real chapter, everyone had their own wins and losses, and they also saw that there were people outside the world, less arrogance, more humility, and the scene was naturally harmonious.
Qin Cheng, Zhang Cigong and others, as the chief generals of various departments, if it weren't for their identity, I'm afraid they would have gone down to learn. However, when it comes to the position of a few people, personal martial arts are important, but they are secondary to leading soldiers and fighting, so everyone is better than their soldiers, and they will be better than their battlefield achievements in the future.
At dusk, Li Guang saw that the enthusiasm of all the officers and men was still quite high, and he temporarily decided to hold a "bonfire party", which was to say that this was for the hussar battalion to integrate into the northern army as soon as possible, and to put it more broadly, it was also for the harmony of the entire northern army. In this regard, all the officers and men naturally had no objection, life in the army was already monotonous, and such an opportunity was rare, and as soon as Li Guang's words came out, the three armies cheered.
When the army gathered at night, the soldiers who won the first place in various subjects today were naturally sought after, and the hussar battalion was not left behind with 6,000 soldiers against 40,000 or 50,000 soldiers, and Qin Cheng was inevitably poured a lot of wine by everyone.
......
The winter night was a little colder, and the party didn't last too late, and the whole school yard was basically empty, only some fires were still burning.
"In the past, I didn't know that you were so good at riding and shooting, but seeing it today is an eye-opener for me." Qin Cheng handed Liu Mu a wine bag and sat down beside him.
"There's a lot the general doesn't know." Liu Mu took the wine bag and took a few sips, and a burst of warmth suddenly rose in his body.
Qin Cheng saw that what Liu Mu said was tepid, and secretly said that this guy probably had some opinions about himself. After all, as a general, it would be a bit derelict to not know much about the skills of his subordinate generals.
"Then tell me, what else do you have, take it out for a walk!" Qin Cheng half-jokingly.
Liu Mu glanced at Qin Cheng, turned his head and looked at the fire in a daze without speaking, his expression was quite lonely, which made Qin Cheng at a loss for a while.
"It's all half-baked, don't say it!" Liu Mu picked up the wine bag and took a few sips, laughing as if laughing at himself.
The firelight turned red on half of Liu Mu's face, Qin Cheng looked at Liu Mu, and suddenly had a strange feeling, which made him laugh.
Liu Mu said slightly angrily: "Isn't it funny? ”
"No, today I suddenly discovered something interesting." Qin Cheng pointed to Liu Mu's face and laughed constantly, "I found that you look like a girl when you blush, haha!" ”
Liu Mu's expression froze, and the wine bag in his hand fell to the ground at once, and then he was angry, picked up the wine bag and threw it on Qin Cheng's face, and said angrily: "Qin Cheng, you are looking for death!" ”
With that, get up and go.
Qin Cheng called him from behind, "It's just a joke, why are you so serious and angry?" ”
Hearing Qin Cheng's words, Liu Mu, who had walked a few steps, stopped, turned his head to look at Qin Cheng, there was still anger in his eyes, and suddenly said: "The last general, I have something to do tomorrow, I want to go to the city." ”
"Want to take a leave of absence? No problem! Qin Cheng said, "Could it be a blind date?" Haha, how many days have you been in Chang'an? ”
Liu Mu took a sip, ignored Qin Cheng again, and turned to leave.
Looking at Liu Mu's back, the smile on Qin Cheng's face gradually faded, and gradually became entangled.
Picking up the wine bag that Liu Mu threw at him, Qin Cheng muttered in a low voice, "Is it or not?" Yes, or no? It's a bit of a struggle......"
