I saw that under the guidance of Huo Yi, the visitor walked in front of Jiang Wei, knelt on one knee, and saluted with fists:

"The last general, Zhang Wei, the word Boqi, led the order of Ma Fu Peng (Ma Liang's official position), and I am here to see the general!"

Jiang Wei stepped forward to help him up, and said with a smile: "I have long heard that Bo Qi worked hard to save Mrs. County Ling, and I saw it today, and it really deserves its reputation." ”

He pointed to the first position on the left side of the account and said, "Come, please take a seat!" ”

The first position on the left is the position of the lieutenant general, and if a small ordinary official suddenly encounters such a situation, he will either be flattered or panicked.

But Zhang Wei was not shocked on his face, and calmly sat in front of him.

Jiang Wei secretly praised in his heart: "There is the wind of a general." ”

However, he said that Zhang Wei's current official position is not high, his family is poor, and he has always had the ambition to join the army, Jiang Wei was not surprised by his arrival at all, but Ma Zhong's attitude surprised him.

It turned out that a few days ago, Ma Zhong replied to the letter, saying that the order of the DPRK and the Central Committee to urge the department to come to help after this period of time was over, and this was obviously the intention of being willing to come to the army to do things.

On the contrary, Zhang Yi had clearly written to inform Ma Liang that everything in the county was complicated, and it was not easy to get out at this time, which probably meant to refuse.

Then, these generals who are now here, and Ma Zhong, who is about to arrive, are all the managers of this new army.

According to the edict of the king of Hanzhong, the new army was mainly composed of foot soldiers, with 3,200 nuclear soldiers. It is worth mentioning that these are all newly recruited soldiers who need to be trained from scratch for several months before they can take on the big role.

Jiang Wei knows very well that no matter whether the number of troops is large or not, the first thing to be solved is the issue of the establishment of the army.

During the mourning period, after the imperial court temporarily postponed the matter of sealing the official, he divided the powers and responsibilities one by one according to expectations.

Ma Zhong and Zhang Wei were a little older, and Jiang Wei took the two of them as the left and right governors, each in charge of more than 1,000 soldiers.

He himself has been the main general, leading the central governor, in charge of the army of two songs and 1,000 people, and is under the jurisdiction of Zhao Guang on weekdays; And Jiang Wen was his personal guard, leading fifty guards.

Huo Yi was in the capacity of the secretary (secretary) of the army, holding the seal and the secretary of the book, the grain and grass and military resources, and also led a 150-person ambulance team.

Among these people, Ma Zhong, Zhang Wei, Zhao Guang, and Jiang Wen are all military positions and belong to the front-line combatants, but Huo Yi is a civilian, and his duty is also to deal with all kinds of miscellaneous matters in the army except for combat and drills.

Therefore, afterwards, he also found Jiang Wei in private and expressed his willingness to serve in the martial arts.

Jiang Wei said: "Others only know that a general who can fight is a good general, but in fact, Miao Ye." The soldiers of Gain, the major affairs of the country, the place of death and life, and the way of survival, must not be ignored. In addition to knowing how to fight, a smart general also needs to know logistics, know the cold and warm, and be able to dispatch, so that the soldiers in front of him can worry about worry, which can achieve twice the result with half the effort......"

"The reason why I arranged it this way is because I have high hopes for you Shaoxian...... Let's think about it, a general who can control the overall situation can be invincible in battle, and if you lead an army alone in the future, you can also be less entangled and get started very quickly. ”

Huo Yi suddenly realized, hugged his fists and said ashamedly: "I didn't know that my brother had a loving heart, but Yi understood this time." ”

On this night, because all the soldiers and soldiers had not yet been in place, it was not yet officially an army, Jiang Wei ordered the cook to cook a few good dishes, prepare good wine, and invite everyone to have the first meal in the barracks, which was not only a celebration, but also a sense of mutual understanding.

It is needless to mention that the period of harmony is self-explanatory.

Early the next morning, Zhao Yun sent someone to report that the first wave of about 3,000 recruits had been enlisted in the army this afternoon, and asked Jiang Wei to quickly lead people to select soldiers.

Jiang Wei didn't say a word, and immediately led Zhang Wei, Huo Yi, and Zhao Guang to the north camp of the city, leaving Jiang Wen to guard the camp.

The four of them galloped all the way, and it took an hour to arrive. After informing the guards of their identities and entering, they saw that the Beida camp was already crowded with people, and there were heavily armed generals strolling around it.

At this time, a military general flashed out of the oblique thorn, and said as if surprised: "But Boyo is here?" ”

Jiang Wei followed the prestige and found that the person who came was Fu Wei, the Chinese Governor of the Chinese Army, who fought side by side during the Battle of Yiling, and there was still a person standing beside him, but it was Zhang Nan, the former governor of the Chinese Army.

After a greeting ceremony, Jiang Wei asked about the details of the room.

Fu Wei had an expression of "you don't understand this", and explained with a smile:

"At this time of year, the imperial court will summon a group of new recruits to enlist in the army, which will be used to supplement the attrition and retirement of various departments. No, brother, after Zhang Nan and I received the notice, we came to pick people in person. Boyo, you must know that all battalions of the Chinese army will send people to select strong men today, and we must hurry to the school field to wait, and observe the candidates in advance, so as not to be the first to be taken. ”

"Huh?" Jiang Wei was surprised and said, "Do you want to rob it?" ”

"That's nature." Fu Wei had a clear expression.

Jiang Wei had no choice but to rush to the school with Fu Wei and Zhang Nan.

At this moment, the school yard was full of thousands of young men in short clothes, like cattle and horses waiting to be sold in the market, all looking at the generals of the various armies coming in and out with a worried face.

Fu Wei reminded: "Boyo, brother will remind you, there have always been several kinds of soldiers who are the most popular, such as burly, outstanding martial arts, strong muscles, or smart faces, you can choose according to what I said in a while, you will not be wrong!" ”

At this time, the drums suddenly began to beat on the stage.

Fu Wei hurriedly said: "It's about to start, brother is going to choose someone, please!" ”

"Please!"

Seeing Fu Wei and Zhang Nan leaving, Jiang Wei beckoned Zhang Wei, Huo Yi, and Zhao Guang to him, and ordered:

"Each general has a way of selecting soldiers, but under the command of this general, the first priority is discipline, and the first order is prohibited, so I have a few requirements for today's selection of soldiers: first, do not use the city oily people, as long as you see those with smooth and white faces, flexible and agile manners, you must not use them; Secondly, you can't use treacherous people, those who are fickle, who don't care when they see Shangguan, and who are not scrupulous, even if they are burly, I don't want them. ”

Zhang Wei, Huo Yi, and Zhao Guang looked at each other and asked:

"What kind of person is the general looking for?"

"The best of the generals are honest people from the countryside and fields, these people have dark skin, strong physique, and hard life, you can carefully observe their palms and cheeks, but those who have strong skin and flesh, and have the formation of a native improvement formed by years of hard work, this is the case, as long as you see it, you will stay immediately!"

"The honest man of the country field ......"

Zhang Wei, Huo Yi, and Zhao Guang silently read twice, all of them hugged their fists and said goodbye respectively.
