Chapter 271: Rewards and Punishments

In the camp, the captured dead horses became a delicious food tumbling in a huge marching pot, and the men excitedly told everyone that today, there was no military rations, only meat.

The flesh of the three thousand horses was broken down, thrown into a cauldron, and tumbled enough for all of them to stretch their feet, so that no one thought about rice anymore. The horse's offal is boiled into the most beautiful soup in the world.

A full meal of horse meat, and finally use the world's most beautiful horse offal soup to slip through the gaps in the stomach, so what gods do you envy? That's the best reward for the winner.

Squatting in the middle of his own team, holding a coarse porcelain bowl, in the admiration of the ten brothers, eating fragrant horse meat fiercely and greedily, although this veteran who replaced the shivering recruits on the battlefield was wounded, but his heart was still happy and proud, just now the lord pinned to his chest, the only silver badge of the Lu family army, made him extremely proud, this pride has made him forget the pain on his body.

He was injured in two ways, one was when he was replacing the new Ding brother in front of him, and he was hit by the enemy's war horse.

A war horse weighing seven or eight hundred pounds galloped and crashed into a person's body, and the huge impact force, coupled with the huge weight, was definitely not something that ordinary people could bear.

Fortunately, a veteran is a veteran, with rich experience, in the enemy's war horse, pierced by his own spear, in the face of the mountain of crashing war horse, he twisted his body with the greatest strength, dodging the direct impact of the war horse, but it still hurt his internal organs, now every time he eats a bite of horse meat, he will cough uncontrollably, but he is still eating fiercely, just like this bowl of horse meat, is the enemy who injured himself, for the enemy, absolutely do not be soft-mouthed.

He also had a wound, a whiplash wound on his back.

Because he was on the battlefield, he did not follow the military order and took the place of the recruit brother in front of him without authorization, causing a little commotion in the entire array.

This is absolutely not allowed to change one's position without authorization, a radish is a pit, and the radish cannot be moved, which is a natural truth, and as a result, your radish moves indiscriminately in order to jump out of this pit, and it will completely disturb the position of other radishes, and the consequence will be a collapse and a disaster.

Although, this radish of his is for the stability of the entire Great Array.

But in the military discipline of the Lu family's army, military discipline is military discipline, which must be strictly enforced, and there is no accommodation at all, who knows what kind of bad consequences you will bring to the entire military formation if you changed your position indiscriminately at that time? You say you're in it for the win, but it doesn't?

That's often the way things are, and there are many things that are just good intentions that do bad things.

Therefore, in the same mechanical need of discipline as the Lu Jiajun, Lu Peng asked them to do so very strictly when training.

"I don't need your personal bravery, personal bravery is in my team, that's bullshit, even if you have seen it, the invincible Lu Bu in the world, isn't he disgraced in front of our big array? My whole army, like that huge windmill, like this advanced trebuchet, you are one of the parts, an absolutely indispensable part. As long as you play your part well, you can ensure the normal operation of the whole machine, and if you leave this machine without permission, the consequences you will cause this huge windmill and powerful trebuchet to stop suddenly, this is our army, absolutely not allowed, so I decided to give this veteran a punishment of five lashes. ”

This parable is very vivid, and all the brothers below understand their own importance and rejoice in their own importance.

This was this evening, when the lord Lu Peng stood on the high point of the general's platform and explained their importance to all the soldiers. At the same time, it was announced to all the people that he punished the reason for this veteran.

Fortunately, in Lu Peng's army, the inexplicable torture of other armies has been abolished, such as talking loudly in the barracks, according to military regulations, you will be pierced with a sword on the cheek, or directly cut off your ears. If you are in a bad mood just in time, it is customary to cut off your head.

Even if it weren't, it would be very fatal to beat the baton.

A normal man, if the executioner is a little more ruthless, he will be disabled for life, or he will die directly, for this reason, there is a corruption phenomenon in the army, that is, every soldier has to bribe those executioners in peacetime, because you don't know when it will fall into their hands, because your life is in his hands.

But the lord was merciful, and he abolished the inexplicably harsh laws, especially the humiliating one, and abolished the criminal law of beating the military stick and replaced it with a leather whip.

In fact, the pain caused by the whip is much stronger than that of the stick, but the only benefit of this thing is that it will make your skin open, and it will not let you die in the end, as long as you carry it back and be taken care of well, after ten days and half a month, you are still a living man.

And Lu Peng's army has begun to be equipped with the necessary Langzhong.

So the veteran willingly accepted the punishment of the five whips.

Although the number of five-skin whips is not much, every time the whip reaches the flesh, the veteran who beat him grinned his teeth, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered.

After the torture was completed, he was supported by the recruit and came to the lord again, and Lu Peng asked him solemnly: "Do you accept my punishment?" ”

The veteran said convincingly: "I violated military discipline and deserve such a punishment, and I would like to thank the lord's men for their mercy, the punishment is light." ”

"Do you dare next time?" Lu Peng asked him seriously.

The veteran stiffened his neck: "If there is a next time, there is still a shivering recruit in front of me, I will still replace him, even if I am punished by military law again, but I must not let my big array loosen a little." ”

Lu Peng took a step forward, supported the veteran with both hands, and then took out a silver medal in his arms, which was very solemnly pinned to the veteran's breastplate. "In order to commend your bravery on the battlefield, in order to commend you for your unwavering commitment to the robe on the battlefield, and in order to commend your contribution to the stability of the entire military formation, I now award you the highest honor of our Lu family army, the Silver Medal."

At that time, the audience was solemn, because the original medal was bronze, and this one was silver, this is glory, this is different.

Lu Peng took a step back and saluted the veteran deeply: "I am not talking about military discipline and military law now, I would like to express my highest respect for your bravery, affection and righteousness to you on behalf of myself." ”

All the soldiers bowed together and saluted an ordinary veteran.

The veteran had forgotten the pain of being whipped in his back and was crying with tears streaming down his face.

Holding a large porcelain bowl, he violently stuffed the mountain of horse meat into his mouth, and a full meal of horse meat was definitely the most beautiful food in the world.

The recruit squatted beside him, gobbling up food, and thanked the veteran with a grateful face: "Uncle, thank you for taking my place this time, you are my savior, from now on, my life will be yours." ”

In their simple and simple hearts, if someone else saves their life, then they must use immigrants to repay it, and it is natural to repay debts and kill people to pay for their lives.

The veteran said indifferently: "The recruits go into battle, it's good if you don't pee your pants, I'm actually afraid that you will pee your pants, if you run away because you're afraid, our entire gun formation will be completely wasted, and when the time comes, it's not you and me who will die, and the whole team will suffer." After burping and taking a bite again, the veteran knocked on his rice bowl and said to the recruit: "Remember, we are a whole, no matter who we are, on the battlefield, we must think about other brothers, otherwise it will be the result of death, it doesn't matter if you die yourself, you will die unjustly with the brothers around you." ”

The recruit was ashamed to use chopsticks to pick up a piece of smooth horse meat and give it to the veteran: "Next time I will definitely not be afraid, next time I will definitely do it, even if I die there, I will definitely not move." ”

Bala was attentive to the recruits: "There is a lot of horse meat captured this time, on this hot day, if you don't eat it up, it will be spoiled in a blink of an eye, so you can eat it openly, see it, as long as there is a battle, as long as we can win, we will have a good chew." ”

This is a real harvest, a victory is a delicious meal, this is what the soldiers want most.

"Also, this victory, we will definitely get the reward of the lord again, when the time comes, I will take this reward home, buy a pair of iron plough sticks for my father, my family now has more than 30 acres of land, wooden plough sticks to cultivate, laborious." Another veteran came over with a rice bowl, looking at the silver medal on the veteran's chest, a little restrained, and a look of longing.

As a result, the veteran shook his chopsticks at this old brother and said, "We are all old brothers, there is no need to be frightened by this vain thing." He did so, but he tried to hold his chest up, making the silver medal shine in front of the campfire.

"Don't think about good things, I see that in this battle, we don't have much gold and silver captured, and the rewards after the war will not be too much, so everyone will die of this heart." After eating all the rice in the bowl, the veteran put away the dishes and chopsticks, waited for the man to take them away and clean them, and said his judgment to the brothers who came over beside him.

If there is no capture, there will be no reward, which makes all the brothers feel a little disappointed, although the battle is not for the reward, but it is still good to get a reward.
