Chapter 45: Training in the South
Wang Sunman only felt a chill in his back, he hadn't seen it for many days, the oppression of the king was so great, and his little tricks seemed to be impossible in front of the king, Wang Sunman hurriedly knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing, "The king forgives the sin, the subordinates have the last resort to lie to the king, in fact, this news was heard in the Bai Mansion, and no one in the market knows about it, but the robbery of the Bai caravan is true, and the ministers dare not deceive it again." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info "I couldn't help but scold in my heart, Bai Gui, you really hurt your little brother, too, maybe you drank too much yesterday, otherwise you wouldn't have said such flawed words.
This time, Zhou Bian didn't reach out to help, "That Doctor Man and Bai Guina know each other?" ”
Wang Sunman had to nod. "The two elders have a good relationship, so Chen and Bai Gui have known each other since childhood."
"Bai Gui actually knows the identity of this king?" The corners of Zhou Bian's mouth couldn't help but bend.
Now Wang Sunman is silent, but not being silent is the best answer.
"Don't worry, what kind of interaction do you have with that Bai Gui, this king doesn't care, you don't say anything, maybe you have some agreement with him, the gentleman promises, and this king doesn't care, but if you are disloyal to my royal family, don't blame this king for being unkind to you." Heavy words still have to be spoken, otherwise these ministers will be full of small actions behind their backs.
Wang Sun was busy kowtowing again and again, and his forehead actually smashed a nest on the grass, and he didn't dare to say in his mouth. Zhou Bian couldn't help but feel unbearable when he saw it, so he stretched out his hand to help it up, but said in his mouth, "Isn't it that Bai clan gave up the caravan and wanted this king to avenge it and clear the way, and it is not easy to say it clearly, so I asked you to come?" ”
Wang Sunman just stood up, and when he heard this, he knelt down again, just kowtowed, but did not speak. But in his heart, he secretly thought, Bai Gui, you don't want to blame me, this is what the king himself thought of.
"This king knows that you are knocked for the Bai family, and the king of Xiang Rili has not stated his identity, the Bai family is from Luoyang, and it is not under the jurisdiction of my royal family, and this king will not blame him. Arise now. Zhou Bian put his hands behind his back and said leisurely, in fact, at this moment, Zhou Bian made a decision.
Wang Sunman patted his clothes and got up, only to hear Zhou Bian continue, "Okay, don't tell me about this matter, this king will act in secret." If you tell him about the circumstances of the caravan being robbed, there is nothing to hide for him. ”
At this time, Wang Sunman had no scruples, and recounted what he said in Baifu Zhonghe Xiaoyi yesterday, and Zhou Bian couldn't help frowning after hearing it, he could attack a caravan with ten warriors and more than 20 guys, it must be a large number of bandits, and he Xiaoyi couldn't see it really, and he didn't know how many people there were in this group of bandits, only hundreds of people, maybe the children were stupid and exaggerated, and it is unknown whether they were out that day, and this bandit lived in the mountains, and he didn't know where he was when he went rashly. I can't act rashly, thinking of this, I called Jiang Ping loudly and gave an order, and Jiang Ping hugged his fists and left. There is only one ancient road in Songshan, and you will definitely be able to find the traces of the day's fight if you go along the road, ten carriages are not small, it is impossible to completely destroy them, there will always be a mark, it is not difficult to find the nest of the bandits, and it is time for the spies to practice their hands, otherwise they will not be trapped in the market all day long, and it will be boring to be an idler.
Then the two chatted a few words, Wang Sunman said goodbye and left, and after leaving, he couldn't help wiping his sweat, how to leave only a few months, the king in front of him became more and more invisible, and now the pressure on people is stronger. Alas, don't look at the king is only nine years old, and he is not an easy to fool the lord, I don't know how much benefit Bai Gui can get when he defects later. Thinking about it, Wang Sunman couldn't help but look back again, only to see the riverside king talking casually with Fan Yu, under the sun going west, the smile was so easy-going, but it still couldn't cover the naivety of the face, which made it more and more difficult to torture.
Ten days later, in the early morning of the week, the sky had not yet dawned, and it was still cool in May between Heluo, and in the newly built barracks by the east gate of the city, the snoring was still undulating, and suddenly a group of samurai marched in order to the front of the camp, which immediately interrupted the last calm before dawn.
The military regulations in the Imperial Forest Army were very strict, and even at the most sleepy moment, the guards at the gate of the camp were still in good spirits, and this group of samurai was naturally blocked, but after the two sides exchanged a token and talked a few words, they were immediately released. As soon as the samurai entered the camp, they shouted in all directions, and several of them went straight to the snare drum in the middle of the camp, and the deafening sound of the drums immediately resounded throughout the camp.
Many dazed soldiers came out of the barracks with their trousers in their hands, and there was the captain of the gang who reacted first, running around, shouting, "All up, assemble!" Hurry up, hurry up! ”
Seeing that many soldiers in this camp ran out of the camp, the first thing that came to mind was not to take weapons or wait for further orders, but to compete and scold, Zhou Bian couldn't help frowning deeply, these people, the concept has not changed, if they really go to the battlefield, the enemy will be fully explained in a night attack, but I don't know what the quality of the armies of the countries is at this time, you need to know that the subordinates of Genghis Khan, who had strict military discipline in later generations, sounded the drums, but asked for the whole army to be assembled between fifteen breaths, and the troops could be developed, This speed also created a Mongol cavalry that was the most powerful in the world, and terrified the entire Eurasian continent.
Half an hour later, the sky was getting brighter, and the team of nearly 300 people was almost neatly lined up in front of Zhou Bian, many of whom were still rubbing their eyes and muttering quietly, but it was gratifying that under the urging of the captains, no one forgot to dress neatly and take their weapons.
There is only one centurion in the army, that is, Pang Xing, at this time it is natural that Pang Xing came to report, according to Zhou Bian's request, Pang Xing ran forward and sang loudly, "Report to the king, the royal forest army has been assembled, it should be two hundred and eighty-nine people, but it is two hundred and eighty-eight people, please instruct the king." ”
Zhou Bian stood on the wooden platform that had been ordered a long time ago, and after listening to Pang Xing's report, he couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Then who is the one who hasn't arrived, why?" ”
"Oh, yes," Pang Xing was about to speak, but he heard someone shouting outside the camp gate, "so-and-so is here." The people of the army all turned their heads to look, it was Wang Sunjian. The makeshift assembly was a surprise attack and was not announced in advance.
Wang Sunjian hurriedly ran over, knelt down on one knee and said, "Wang, there is something going on in the small family, so I went back last night." ”
"You can ask for leave if you have something, but did you tell the centurion?"
Wang Sunjian shook his head, "I forgot." ”
"So that's your fault, can you admit punishment?"
The man nodded without hesitation.
"In this case, it is the law in the army, and whoever leaves the barracks without a reason shall have fifty rods. However, today, the king will lead the royal forest army out of the camp to practice, so he will write down the fifty rods, and then execute them after returning to the camp. You return to the team for the time being and continue to be your captain. ”
After Wang Sunjian retreated, Zhou Bian began to lecture, "Today you have made this king very dissatisfied, from the time this king entered the camp, to the moment before you were assembled, it took nearly an hour. Does it take that long to wake up? When he said the last sentence, Zhou Bian actually shouted, although it had a child's voice, but the camp was quiet, the echoes continued, and Zhou Bian's deliberate strictness was also quite imposing.
"The king has summoned you to eat and drink well, not to sleep, but to help him when he is in need. Now that my royal family is in trouble and has been repeatedly abused by the princes, you are all from my Zhou, serving the royal family, winning glory for yourself, and also so that your family can live a more wonderful life. And you, as a soldier today, are so lazy, you need to know that the Wei country has a strong army in the world, beating 50 drums in the middle of the night, and there are still those who have not arrived, and they will be beheaded to show the public. The latter words came from Zhou Bian's hearsay and imagination.
Sure enough, some of his subordinates were ashamed. But someone muttered quietly, presumably still unconvinced.
Zhou Bian looked at it in his eyes one by one, stretched out his hand, and Zhou Mi and the others understood, so he pulled out a soldier from the following. Zhou Bian said loudly, "Don't panic, this king will test you, what is the most important one in the military regulations?" ”
The soldier was so nervous that he couldn't speak for a long time, and Zhou Bian said angrily, "The clerk wrote down this person, he is not familiar with the military regulations, he has ten rods, and the captain has also had five rods." ”
Hearing this, Wang Sunjian couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, and said secretly, Captain Liu, I saw you just now and laughed at a certain family, but now it's not your turn, although it is a little less, but it is better than you just watching me get beaten.
Zhou Bian pointed with his hand, and another soldier stood up, "This king asks you again, what is the duty of a soldier?" ”
The soldier also had a nimble head, and after a little thought, he said, "Go back to the king, protect your family and defend the country." ”
Zhou Bian waved his hand, but did not speak, and his own clerk said loudly, "I am not familiar with the military regulations, ten rods, the captain has also had one, five rods, and I will leave it for punishment after returning to the camp next time." The soldier had no choice but to return to the team with a sad face.
Then he called out to a third person, and this person replied correctly, "It is the duty of a soldier to obey orders." "This is Zhou Bian's reference to his previous life, and it is specially written into the military regulations, that is, there must be an army that can listen to Hou's orders at any time.
This time, Zhou Bian smiled a little, "I am familiar with military regulations, which should be, but in consideration of setting an example, this king specially approves it, rewards one hundred, and the clerk will write it down." The soldier immediately cheered, knelt down and thanked him loudly, and the hundreds of sergeants behind him also began to talk about it, thinking that the reward was more touching than the spanking, which caused several captains to shout loudly, and then quickly quieted down again.
Seeing that everyone had entered the state, Zhou Bian announced the purpose of this visit, "All the soldiers obey the order, this king thinks that only training in the military camp can not achieve the best effect, so this king decided to take you south to cross Luoshui today, go straight to Songshan, spend a few days in Songshan in a marching state, and then return to Chengzhou." This time to the south training, the king will also accompany the army, all the soldiers must be regarded as a real battle, the use of ordnance must be neatly carried, the march to obey the order, there must be no mistakes. In this march, meritorious service will be rewarded, and punishment will be imposed if there is a mistake, and it will not be tolerated. The whole army obeyed, turned to the right, and set off! ”
