Outside Linfen City

Winter is approaching, the hours of day are greatly shortened, in a blink of an eye, the sun gradually slanted to the west, and the afterglow of the remnant sun is scattered in the military camp where the soldiers and horses gather outside Linfen City, stretching the shadows of the barracks to a long time, and with the gradual dimming of the light, the torches and bonfires illuminated in various parts of the military camp are also lit. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Yan Xing took Xu Huang, who had just killed Bai Boqu Shuai and made his first contribution a few days ago, to patrol his own camp, followed by several guards such as Da Niu.

Now that winter is approaching, and the temperature at night is also dropping, the battalion sergeant made a surprise attack on the Baibo Valley and pursued the Baibo Army with the third captain, and made many achievements, but there were also some casualties.

The winter clothes in the army have not yet been distributed, and ordinary soldiers can still be side-by-side, and it is a big deal for a few comrades in the same account to warm up together. However, if these wounded soldiers who have been wounded in the last few battles do not have winter clothes and recuperation, and the frost and dew are steep in the middle of the night, I am afraid it will be difficult to survive.

Therefore, Yan Xing reported to Xu Kun and applied for winter clothes for the soldiers, and on the other hand, he had purchased a batch of winter clothes for the wounded soldiers in Linfen at his own expense in advance.

But in the evening, Yan Xing, who had been fed, was still relieved of the wounded soldiers in the camp after all, so he called Xu Huang, who had just been promoted to the commander of the army, to go with him.

Although Yan Xing was only a soldier of 600 stones, he had more than 1,000 soldiers and horses. Among them, except for more than 200 Fei Lian cavalry, who were trained and commanded by Ganling on weekdays and led by Yan Xingqin during wartime, the other soldiers were divided into tuns according to the system of the central part of the army.

There are more than 200 people in Qiantun, led by Ma Lin. The number of people in the left and right tuns is about 150 people, the left tun is Yan Xing, and the right tun is temporarily vacant, and Yan Xing cooperates in training on weekdays, and in wartime it is transferred to other tuns according to the situation. The number of Zhongtun is maintained at the number of 100 people, most of the veterans, and the most people in armor, whether in ordinary times or wartime, they are all led by Yan Xing himself, and the big bull and another Yan family tribe serve as the team leader. And Houtun because of the addition of heavy soldiers, fire soldiers and other auxiliary troops, the number of people is the largest, has exceeded three hundred, since Yan Shun died in battle, the commander has been vacant, can only be temporarily led by Yan Xing himself.

Later, Zhou Liang came down from Li Ru's tent to Yan Xing's camp, and with this scribe, he shared the pressure of Yan Xing a little. Now that Xu Huang has made military achievements, he decided to stay in his army, and he once served as a county government official in Hedong County, with both civil and military skills, Yan Xing intended to exercise his ability and let him take over the Houtun people, so he was promoted to the Houtun team leader, and prepared to live a few days, and when he accumulated enough military merits, he was promoted to a general.

Yan Xing had some common sense of hygiene in later generations, so he also attached great importance to the military affairs of recuperation of wounded and sick soldiers. These wounded soldiers have now been transferred to the camp in Houtun, and a special camp has been set aside for them to be independently organized and guarded by special auxiliaries.

Yan Xing instructed the soldiers to remove the blood and filth from the camp many times, and the wounded soldiers scrubbed their bodies and changed clothes on time, and the cloth belts wrapped in the wounds and washed were boiled and dried in boiling water before they could be reused. And these things are now also personally responsible for Xu Huang in Houtun, so Yan Xing specially sent someone to call Xu Huang and take him to patrol the camp together.

There were not many seriously wounded soldiers, only a few tents, or missing hands and legs, or their bodies were badly wounded, and some of them even had little time, although they were not abandoned on the battlefield, and the food supply in the camp was never cut off. But thinking that his life was short, or that he could no longer go to the battlefield, it was inevitable that his heart would be desolate, Yan Xing took Xu Huang to their tent, soothed them warmly, patiently listened to the complaints and lamentations of those seriously injured soldiers, and tried his best to soothe their fragile nerves.

When he walked to the side of a fifteen or sixteen-year-old soldier at the end of the tent who had fallen asleep, Yan Xing looked at his immature face with a frowning brow and a little pale, and couldn't help but stop, asking the auxiliary soldiers who were guarding the wounded soldier about the young soldier's injury.

It was learned that the pawn's wound was a knife wound in the chest, and the wound was infected, although the army doctor had stitched up the wound for him, but his injury was too serious, and the fever has not subsided, and he is unconscious. Yan Xing nodded with a heavy face, the current medicine stone has few ways to deal with this kind of wound infection, even if there is really a secret recipe for the elixir, it can be difficult to implement in the army where materials are generally scarce, and it can only rely on the physical fitness of the soldiers to resist it, but for the soldiers who are too seriously injured like this, there is a very small chance of surviving.

Yan Xing silently tucked the corner of the futon on the young wounded soldier's body to prevent the wind, and then said goodbye to the other wounded soldiers one by one and walked out of this military tent.

Although his mood was a little heavy, Yan Xing still kept walking, and took Xu Huang and the others to the military tent of the lightly wounded soldiers not far away. Most of the soldiers in this military tent were wounded, and they were soon healed and returned to battle, and the atmosphere in the tent was much lighter.

All of these soldiers knew Yan Xing, the military candidate and Xu Huang, the leader of the team who came to patrol every day, and many of them had already jumped up from their sleeping seats to greet Yan Xing and the others, and some of the bold soldiers were still tireless to ask about the battle on the front line, and after they were wounded, they would go into battle to kill the enemy and earn more first-class combat exploits.

Yan Xing also put on a friendly smile and talked and laughed with many soldiers, seeing that a soldier who was tying up the wound had not yet tied the cloth belt, he was about to get up to greet him, Yan Xing hurriedly took the first step, pressed him back to his seat, and personally squatted down to bandage his wound, during which he talked to him a little more, encouraging him to recuperate from his injuries with peace of mind, return to serve in the army as soon as possible, and fight together with other comrades.

・・・

Yan Xing would stay for a period of time at every military tent, and with each soldier, Yan Xing would also talk to them and listen patiently to his gossip and appeals. Therefore, although there were only a few military tents where the wounded soldiers lived, there were not many, but by the time all the inspections were completed, the sun had completely set, and the crescent moon on the other side gradually rose into the night sky.

Yan Xing took Xu Huang and the others to a place on the edge of the camp and stopped, while Da Niu and the other guards consciously spread out and guarded the surroundings. Looking at the camp with a clear bonfire in the dark night, he followed it, and Xu Huang, who noticed that Yan Xing had something to say to himself, thought about it, opened the conversation in advance, and said to Yan Xing with admiration:

"The heart of the soldier loves the nurse, just like the love of a father, where he goes, the soldier is grateful and convinced, and Huang takes over all the things in Houtun, but because of his reckless qualifications, there are many inconsiderate, so that the army is affected, and Huang is really ashamed!"

Yan Xing shook his head slightly and said:

"Before these soldiers joined the army, most of them were wandering between the three auxiliary people, their homes were destroyed, they were alone, and now they have become the soldiers under their command, and these generals are their only support, and the battle array is not in charge of the army, the military law is ruthless, and the desire to kill and seize is between our trade-offs, but when they are relieved, they are also flesh and blood, not to be gracious, to be compassionate to the people, but to punish them harshly, not a good way to govern the army!"

The main force of soldiers under Yan Xing's command has been transformed from the original Yan family tribe to the rogue militia recruited by the three assistants, and some of the surviving Yan family tribes are mostly sent to serve in military positions in various Shi Wu, and the nature of the team has not only changed, but the number has also increased.

The army of 1,000 people has the method of leading the army of 1,000 people, and the army of more than 10,000 people also has the method of commanding the army of 10,000 people.

And the grasp of the two between strict law and benevolence is the most test of a general's ability to weigh up.

Xu Huang also looked pensive after hearing this, and nodded in agreement. After Yan Xing finished speaking, he looked at the heroic young team in front of him and had the qualifications of a general, suddenly smiled, and said encouragingly:

"You have been in the army for the first time, you are diligent, you are safe, you have been better than ordinary people too much, these military affairs experience, I am also from the army, in every war in the observation, after the war summed up, Gongming has the talent of a general, and diligent in learning, will become a great weapon in the future!"

Yan Xing has been watching Xu Huang's performance these days, and he has to admit that in addition to experience being the best teacher, talent is also very important for those in charge. Although Xu Huang has just arrived and is in charge of the affairs of the army, he carefully consulted Yan Xing, Zhou Liang, Ma Lin and others, and his suggestions to his subordinates can also be as good as flowing, coupled with his talent endowment, although he still needs Yan Xing's guidance, but in time, he can grow into a general who is in charge of one side.

Thinking of this, Yan Xing sighed a little, he used to be so intentional in cultivating Yan Shun to grow into a military officer who could be relied on in the army, but the battle array was extremely dangerous, and a careless move would be the end of the defeated army and the killing of the general, just like the young soldier who had just been tortured by injuries, maybe the next moment, his immature life would disappear in this dark night.

After Xu Huang listened to Yan Xing's praise, he didn't even dare to praise it, looking at this also young military official, Yan Xing thought of Cao Yuan and the others who had set up a battalion.

Although Cao Yuan is only a hundred generals of the Northern Army, he is not something that Yan Xing can easily recruit at the moment, and he can only get married for the time being. He is still nominally a soldier of the Northern Army, but he was temporarily transferred to serve under Xu Kun, and it is a coincidence that he was also from Hedong by Yan Xing, who was emotionally "well-behaved and a famous general", and happened to be from the same county as Xu Huang in front of him.

"Colleagues in the army, if you have any questions, you can also ask them for more benefits. Shusheng has a sense of the overall situation and dares to do things; Although Gongshi is reckless, he is brave and good at fighting; Ji Qi has been tempered, and he has also achieved a lot of success, Yuan Shan is good at case writing, and Zi said, "Threesome, there must be my teacher", Gongming should also be encouraged! ”

"All the monarchs in the army are highly talented and good at fighting, and they will carefully follow the will of the army and ask for more benefits from the monarchs!"

Xu Huang hurriedly agreed, Yan Xing nodded, and then turned to Cao Yuan again, and he said:

"Cao Jun and others are all from the same county as Gongming, and Gongming can also have more contacts than him, and he can also be beneficial!"

"What the military Hou said is very true, it is not hidden, last day and met Cao Jun and others, there were many exchanges, talking about the feelings of Sangzi, and also talking about the battle array, Cao Jun and others are all talented, and Huang is also sincerely admired!"

Hearing that Xu Huang was praising the talents of Cao Yuan and others, Yan Xing was also curious, he praised Xu Huang for having "the talent of a general" mostly because he had the prophetic knowledge of later generations, and praised Cao Yuan for having the "posture of a famous general", mostly because he admired Cao Yuan's means of acting and temperament.

Yan Xing was also afraid that he would miss out on many talents by simply using his thin prophet. So when he heard that Xu Huang also praised the talents of Cao Yuan and others, he wanted to know Xu Huang's observations, so he also asked out loud:

"How so?"

"Wei Jun is skilled in arching and horses, and has a lot of experience, if he is in charge of a department, he will definitely be able to defeat the enemy, and Meng Jun is brave and brave to fight, strong and generous, and he is a person with high ambitions. As for Cao Jun—"

Xu Huang thought about his short relationship with Cao Yuan, thought about the wording, and then continued:

"The surprise attack in the army broke the enemy, and there was the pursuit of the merit, looking at the generals, there were many arrogant colors, and Cao Jun was calm, repairing the ordnance, inspiring the soldiers, and he was in the battle of Baibo Valley to attack the pass, planning and advancing, although the wound did not retreat, knowing the strength of the enemy, Keping thieves, it can be described as a majestic and high-minded, famous general!"

Hearing Xu Huang's high evaluation of Cao Yuan, Yan Xing couldn't help laughing, and he smiled at his subordinates:

"Cao Jun's talent, I also know it, but in the battle of attacking the pass, Jun was stubborn and stubborn, killed the head of the thief, and was the first to record, not to say his own merits, but to push others, too humble!"

Faced with Yan Xing pointing out that he was the first to be the first to be credited to others, he was too modest, Xu Huang didn't dare to be arrogant, his face was sincere, and he hurriedly saluted and said:

"If there is no Cao and Ma Zhujun to contain the enemy in front, An De has the merit of slashing the thief head in a sudden formation, Huang is not humble, this is really a real thing!"

Looking at Xu Huang's respectful and sincere words and deeds, Yan Xing felt something, and no longer struggled with arguing about who should be the first credit, but said to Xu Huang with deep meaning:

"Cao Jun and others are all talented, and they are from the same county as Jun, so you should have more contacts with them. Although you first came to the army, you have both civil and military qualifications, and try to take charge of the affairs of the post, just like my humerus, it is the person I work for, work together, make contributions on the battlefield, and strive to make a common reputation! ”

Xu Huang's eyebrows moved, and he hurriedly saluted again and responded:

"Huang with a sinful body, the Mongolian army waited to rescue and escape, and was promoted, with the army to fight and make contributions, entrusted me with the things in the army, Huang Ding should be with the army to fight together, in order to repay the grace of the army!"

Looking at this potential famous general who was subdued by his heart and swore to serve his life, Yan Xing's heart was happy, and he also stretched out his hands, held Xu Huang's saluting hand tightly, and laughed loudly, and the laughter gently rippled in the night sky with the night breeze.
