(The title is true, the others are copied twenty-six chapters, which will be changed tomorrow)

So what exactly should be the credit? It should be something that measures the quality of contribution. That is, only when something that is very beneficial to a certain organization can few people do or no one thinks of it at all, and someone volunteers to do it well, this is called merit, this is called merit.

In this way, in fact, every thing that can be regarded as a credit is not a job that was just a lack of people in the first place. In Zuo Zhaodan's era, to take the simplest example, killing the enemy is not a credit, killing a lot so that others can't do it is the credit. This is an example that others can't do, and the example that others can't think of is similar to this.

In other words, the idea of seeking merit should have appeared before having an idea, and seeking merit after having an idea is often no longer called merit.

……

In the end, the county order of Luotao County is still gone, and Zuo Zhaodan doesn't know where he went, and he doesn't want to know. After a day of being at home, the next day he arrived at the barracks early in the morning.

The barracks in Luotao County have long been chaotic, and it is quite chaotic. However, this situation is not a day or two, since Hongzhou gathered troops to send assistance to the Congzhou defense line, there is no discipline in the empty barracks. Zuo Zhaodan has no real power, and he usually doesn't come to the barracks to find anger, but when he saw it today, he almost spewed out a mouthful of his blood.

There were still a few soldiers in the huge barracks, and most of them were very clean, and they all went to their own homes. Of course, they are not trying to escape for their lives, but in this case, it will not be any good to stay here any longer, not to mention that the payment of military salaries seems to be a dream now.

Looking at the current situation, Zuo Zhaodan pursed his lips. Walking around the barracks, there were probably less than a hundred soldiers left. Most of them are old, weak, sick, disabled and orphaned, and many do not return home because they are homeless. There are also others, in front of Zuo Zhaodan's eyes, openly carrying burdens, and they do not shy away from stealing the remaining things in the barracks that are barely worth two children. However, there are not many such things, and they have probably been taken away by others.

In a corner of the barracks, Zuo Zhaodan even found a few beggars living in this empty barracks, which made him really a little crying and laughing.

……

After looking back and forth, Zuo Zhaodan has some understanding of the current situation. With a sigh, he tightened his saber at his waist and stood in front of the barracks.

As expected, after a while, several soldiers carrying burdens walked out of the barracks with a relaxed face.

Zuo Zhaodan, who was standing at the door, had a trace of unbearability in his eyes, but he quickly stretched out his hand to block his face, and took this opportunity to adjust his expression.

The green tendon holding the sword jumped, and Zuo Zhaodan stepped forward to stop the soldiers who wanted to leave the barracks, "Where are you going?" ”

Just now, there were people who were laughing and were a little confused about the situation. After being stunned for a while, the soldier on the far right stepped forward, bent down and whispered to Zuo Zhaodan:

"My lord, don't be embarrassed about the little ones, the adults must know better than the little ones what the situation is now. That's it, you said we shouldn't be embarrassed by each other, right? They are all flesh-long people, not flying immortals. With that, the soldier put down the burden from his shoulder, reached in, and found a few copper plates.

"It's a little interesting, I hope it's convenient for you."

Zuo Zhaodan looked at the copper plate he handed over, looked at him again, and gave him a look of pity.

"Bold! What is the intention of daring to bribe this official in public in broad daylight? "This is the first time Zuo Zhaodan has been a county guard for so many years to play an official tone, and he is quite unaccustomed to it.

"As a soldier of Luotao County, you eat the military salary of Dazhao and leave the camp without permission, you are a deserter, and you should be beheaded according to military law. Now that bribery is a crime, and all crimes are true and there is no grievance, what else do you have to say! With that, he drew his sword and gave the soldier a sword in his chest. I saw that this person's eyeballs immediately bulged out and fell to the ground, and he lost his breath in an instant.

Zuo Zhaodan threw his sword to the side, and a blood mark clearly appeared on the ground, which brought a lot of impact to several soldiers in the Holy Gorge. No one thought that a living person who talked and laughed, a person who was still by their side just now and could walk and move, would turn into a corpse in such a short period of time, which was undoubtedly a huge visual impact on this group of people who had never seen blood since they joined the army at the beginning.

"Wherever the things came from, let me put them, and when they are finished, let me go to the various camps and call out all the things that are not dead, I have something to say."

As soon as they heard this, those people hurried back as if they had heard of the amnesty.

In fact, the current situation is not the best situation that Zuo Zhaodan expected, and it is certainly not the worst situation. Zuo Zhaodan was ready to fight this group of people alone, but it was obvious that the soldiers he faced were not as strong as he imagined.

However, he expected the best situation to be because of the commotion of his killing of chickens and monkeys, and the whole camp came out of the camp to see this scene. This will make the whole picture look more convincing. Now there is a corpse on the ground, and speaking in front of everyone seems a little too contrived to be very real.

Seeing those people running away, Zuo Zhaodan rubbed his somewhat pale face. In fact, it was the first time he had killed someone, and although he had always had the dream of going into battle to kill the enemy, if it really came to see the red tip of the sword, it would not feel like that.

What's more, he didn't kill the enemy

After a while, the people who remained in the camp arrived one after another, and most of them looked quite confused, but when they saw the corpse next to Zuo Zhaodan, they all didn't say anything in amusement. When a few people who went to find someone at the beginning came over and told Zuo Zhaodan that they were all done, Zuo Zhaodan cleared his throat.

"Ahem, I think everyone knows me almost, it doesn't matter if you don't know me, it's good to know me today. My name is Zuo Zhaodan, and I am the county guard here, in other words, I am the head of this barracks. I've heard you've been getting little and less big lately. It's only been a few days, and he* doesn't even have a figure left? Tease me! ”

When he said this, Zuo Zhaodan held the hilt of the sword in his left hand, and waved his right hand in the air.

"Can anyone tell me what's going on? Why don't you use this as a barracks? Let me tell you, whoever has this kind of thought in the future, the one lying on the ground is your senior, you know. I'm a county guard, I'm not a county master, I won't give you any kind of beheading or imprisonment or anything, in my place, there is only a knife, you look at it, I don't care what kind of moth you have, to me this is a knife, whoever wants to try it, I don't mind. ”

Zuo Zhaodan was silent for a while, and the soldiers in front of him all lowered their heads, their eyes dodged, and they didn't see any reaction. At this time, Zuo Zhaodan waved his hand, "Wen Laosan stays, and the rest will go back for me." ”

Zuo Zhaodan has been a county guard for decades, and this is the first time he has seen his words so good. Soon, only Wen Laosan was left in front of him.

Wen Laosan is a veteran, a good friend of Zuo Zhaodan's father, five or six years younger than his father. Zuo Zhaodan has known him since he was a child and is a very reliable person. When he was inspecting the barracks just now, Zuo Zhaodan saw his figure, so he didn't hesitate to ask his Uncle Wen to stay in front of everyone.

"Uncle Wen, I'm afraid you're going to be tired during this time." Zuo Zhaodan walked up to Wen Laosan and said to him.

"Hey, no, you can't call me Uncle Wen, Lord Zuo County Shouzuo." Wen Laosan smiled and pointed out Zuo Zhaodan's mistake. "Don't call me Uncle Wen in the future."

"You Uncle Wen and I don't have much knowledge, what do you want to do, Uncle Wen, I guess a little bit and the estimate is wrong, ah, you don't have to tell me. What I mean by this is that you don't need to consult me about anything, I'm just your soldier. ”

"......" Zuo Zhaodan was a little dumbfounded. He thought about many kinds of Wen Laosan's reactions to him, maybe he would accuse himself of being too ruthless, or maybe he would ask about his purpose, although he thought that he could finally convince his Uncle Wen, but he didn't expect that his Uncle Wen would support him unconditionally from the beginning.

Zuo Zhaodan nodded fiercely, "That'...... I gave the order. ”

"It's all up to the county guard's arrangement." Wen Laosan made a straight gesture and looked at Zuo Zhaodan's eyes.

"You arrange for all the barracks to move the camp, move the current scattered camps to one corner, and vacate the other barracks."

"Yes."

"Also, you have to make a roster, depending on the situation, they are divided into teams of nine to ten people, captains or something, you know these people better than me, you handle them yourself."

"Yes."

"You have to ask two people to go around the camp, and let people deal with the mess, big and small, and drive away all the beggars, and by the way, dispose of this corpse."

"Yes."

"Finally, and most importantly, find me seven or eight younger, more steady, and let them find armor and weapons to bring and follow me. Okay, that's all, I don't care about the implementation method, you can just come to me in the barracks over there after you finish it. ”

"Yes."

……

An hour later, the Song landlord's house outside the city.

I saw Zuo Zhaodan step sideways and stepped on the threshold, "Tell your family master, I, Zuo Zhaodan, have something to talk to him about today, so I'll talk about it here." Ah, it's okay, don't be afraid, the ones behind me don't hurt anyone today. ”

The housekeeper had never seen a neat-faced soldier come in this position, and thought that the Song landlord had committed something. Don't dare to slack off at the moment, three steps and two steps into the inner hall.

Looking at this situation, Zuo Zhaodan's face showed a triumphant smile.
