Chapter 382: The military and civilians are a family

With the arrival of summer, 30,000 soldiers in Jili Prefecture were arranged to go out.

The 10,000 people were divided into ten battalions by Wang Juan, reinforced battalions, and there were always two battalions in rotation for training, and the other eight battalions for training, and the incredible thing was that the soldiers of the eight battalions for training did not need to take weapons, but took tools such as saws, pickaxes, axes, etc.

When the soldiers were at a loss, Wang Juan's explanation was to train the construction of the fortifications first, and then start the next step when they can skillfully build the fortifications well and quickly.

Fortifications are important.

After further publicity, 10,000 soldiers knew about Wang Juan's ability.

Li Longji did not transfer people from Jiannan Province, nor from Zhouquan from the capital and Luoyang, and it was even more impossible to transfer soldiers from Luzhou, but from Qianzhong Province.

This can make Wang Juan happy, if it is only Qianzhong Road, it is still a little worse, but Li Longji transferred the soldiers from the east of Qianzhong Road, that is, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan at that time in Hunan, the so-called no Hunan army is not formed, and the combat effectiveness can be seen in general.

Wang Juan regarded 10,000 people as a treasure, and if these 10,000 people were trained well, they would be comfortable to use.

With a large bowl of wine and a large piece of meat, Wang Juan began the initial training with 8,000 people who were trained in rotation for fortifications, and first did not let them receive various military training, separated the battalions, and began to build fortifications in Jili Prefecture.

But the fortifications were neither digging a trench nor building a city, but they went to a hill with many trees, and then cut down the trees in various places, built barracks, and leveled the ground, and when they had finished one hill, they turned on to the next.

After training for half a month, the people from Qianzhong finally realized that something was wrong, because when they rotated every half month, this time they saw that there were no soldiers living in the barracks they built at the beginning, but a lot more people.

The faces of the people were full of smiles, and they seemed to be very happy that there was a ready-made house, and the land was leveled, so that they could see the solar terms and grow something, even if it was green vegetables.

The soldiers were confused, is this the importance of fortifications? It is no wonder that when repairing the fortifications, the house must be strong, and the drainage ditch that can be used for a long time must be dug, which is said to be used to raise captured war horses, and there are many piglets screaming.

If it weren't for the fact that the soldiers had to mutiny, the place they had worked so hard to build became the homes of the people, what is this called?

"Battalion commander, I'm not doing it, it's too bullying, no matter how powerful he is, it's not someone else's words? Why don't I believe she has that kind of ability? Trick us into this place where birds don't, just to build houses for the local people? ”

The second battalion was in time for rotation training, and a thousand soldiers saw that the place where they had built was occupied, and a small soldier angrily found the commander of the second battalion to complain.

The commander of the second battalion replied very simply, slapped the soldier's head with a slap, slapped the soldier on the back, and said: "I haven't seen the ability to join the army with my own eyes, and I don't know how the Yangtze River Bridge was built?" I don't know whose name is engraved in the Tower of a Thousand Souls?

We are now conscripts, you don't get a penny if you don't work, look at the new clothes you wear, look at the things you usually eat and drink, this is also money, I really want to do it, wait for three thoughts and then go back, then there will be a sum of money, and someone will find you something to do. ”

The little soldier touched the clothes on his body, pure cotton, not anywhere else, only some rich people can wear clothes made of such fabric, lowered his head, and still said unconvinced: "Then you have to tell us first, saying that it is a house built for the people, she is deceiving, deceiving me, what kind of fortification, it has nothing to do with the fortification." ”

Smack, another slap "Tell you everything?" Do you need to tell your generals what they think when you are fighting? I'm going to train right away, be honest with me, or no one will be able to keep you, get out. ”

The battalion commander reprimanded the little soldier away, but he remembered it, and he felt that everything around him was very strange when he changed places to be a soldier, and it was not as comfortable as in his hometown.

How do you think Wang Juan is a child, even if he is older than an ordinary child, he can't get rid of the immaturity on his face, I don't know how long he can stay here, and he has no bottom in his heart with such a person.

When I was thinking like this, the movement of gongs and drums suddenly sounded outside, which sounded like a lot.

The battalion commander thought that someone had called, and although he was dissatisfied with the record of joining the army, he encountered a battle, and he and the others could not be soft, so he stepped out of this temporary resting tent and looked out.

At first glance, the battalion commander was stunned, and the soldiers of the second battalion who seemed very nervous were also stunned, only to see many local people coming in front, with happy smiles on their faces, holding baskets and baskets in their hands, gradually approaching.

"Herald, what's the situation?" The battalion commander who had just come out couldn't judge, so he could only ask the herald who came from the side running.

"Battalion commander, they are all people who have just moved here for a short time, saying that they want to treat us, thank us for the house we built for them, flat ground, you look at the banner pulled out in front, I asked a literate person just now, and said that it was written on the military and civilian Yushui family."

The herald was very competent, and in just a while, he found out a lot of things and reported them to the battalion commander.

The battalion commander was stunned for a moment, he didn't understand what it meant, what is a family, he and his brothers don't have a home here, if you have a home, it's also a military camp, what does it have to do with the local people?

When the soldiers were wondering, the voice in front stopped, and an old man came out of the crowd and walked in front of the battalion commander with a smile on his face, and the soldiers next to him were still in shock and did not stop them, they didn't think that an old man could hurt the battalion commander.

The old man saluted and said: "I am the village of Erying Village, which has just moved over for a short time, and I heard that your camp is coming over today, so I will prepare some food and entertainment.

Compared to a house, compared to having a home, there are too few things that can be taken out of the second camp village, and the battalion commander hopes that the battalion commander will not be surprised, when the pigs in my village are raised, dozens of them must be killed and sent to the second camp first. ”

The battalion commander of the second battalion understood what was going on as soon as he heard it, the place he and his brothers built was indeed given to the local people, but the credit Wang Juan did not occupy it, and Zhang Xiaobao was not greedy, so he told the people who came over what was going on.

Don't look at a house that is easy to build in the army, but for the people it is a different matter, saving a lot of trouble, so I came to express my gratitude.

The mood that was a little bad just now changed suddenly, looking at the enthusiasm of the people who greeted him and others, listening to what the village said, the battalion commander hurriedly waved his hand and said seriously: "My second battalion didn't know that this was for others to live, and it was to repair the fortifications. ”

"The battalion commander is too modest, or not, if you don't mention this matter, the king has said that even if I bring it up, the soldiers will deny it, which is called the people's soldiers, and they will not admit it if they work for us.

Don't talk about the house, definitely don't say it, this house is really comfortable to live in, you have a heart, just talk about your protection of us people in Jili Prefecture, Fan battalion commander, the village has prepared food for you, don't let people wait too long, come with me, come with me. ”

As the village of the second camp village spoke, he pulled the battalion commander to the front, and the soldiers in the vicinity also heard what the village said.

Originally, they still complained in their hearts after listening to the words of the village, and suddenly felt that what they were doing was not bad, whether it was repairing fortifications or building houses for the people, at least the people had not forgotten themselves and others, and even the name of the village used the name of their own team, so how to count the others? Could it be two camps and one village, two camps and two villages?

The battalion commander who followed the village to the crowd of people wanted to explain a few more sentences, as a soldier, he likes to go straight, he didn't think about it when he first did it, so he naturally wanted to make it clear.

But the village didn't give him this opportunity, and while pulling him away, he said to him, "I know that you are from Jinzhou in Qianzhong Road, and you are not used to eating mutton, it's okay, we are all ready, fish, the fish made for you, the seasoning is sent down by Zhang Tingshi, and the taste is good."

I heard that there are a lot of fish swimming in the sea in the river, I don't know if you like to eat it, try it, eat more if you like it, if you don't like to eat, tell me if you don't like it, what's wrong, wait for the next time. ”

The battalion commander listened to the words of the village and was pulled to the front of the people, there are 300 people living in this second camp village, and this time more than 200 people came, there are adults, no children, and the children are all in the school.

The people were carrying baskets or baskets, and when the battalion commander arrived at the place, one by one the baskets wrapped in sackcloth were opened, and the heat came out, and inside were fish in wooden bowls.

Unconsciously sniffed, the battalion commander was indeed fascinated by the taste of this fish, fragrant, really fragrant, more fragrant than the fish eaten at home, I think it was the credit of that seasoning.

"Quick, send the fried fish to the battalion commander, and let the battalion commander taste it." The village beckoned again, and immediately two young men came out of the ranks of the people, carrying a large basket, and when they came near the battalion commander, they opened the lid, and saw two wooden plates on the first floor, which contained fried yellowed fish.

It's a sea sickle, or a hairtail fish, I don't know how to get it, the white things on the fish have been removed, look closely, the black that should be next to the fish's belly, the bitter part has also been removed, and there is a faint fragrance when it smells.

The village picked up a plate and handed it to the battalion commander to eat, but the battalion commander was stunned for a moment, and did not take it immediately, so the village immediately took out a piece of fish from the plate and put it in his mouth to eat.

"Don't worry, even if we are bad, we will not poison our soldiers, so won't it become revenge? I told the people who made the fish that this time it was for the people of the second battalion, and they used all the vegetable oil left at home, and they were afraid that they would not be able to fry it thoroughly. ”

The village's words pierced the battalion commander's heart like a needle, so that the battalion commander who was stunned just now directly reached out and picked up a piece of fish from the plate, and ate it vigorously, without even spitting out the fish bones, he was stunned and chewed and swallowed.

Although the people in the two places from Qianzhong Road to Jili Prefecture are relatively unfamiliar, this heart has narrowed the distance between the two.

"Where the battalion commander, can you eat? I don't know what the tastes of the people from your side taste. The village asked cautiously, and the rest of the people were also expecting the battalion commander's answer.

The battalion commander actually didn't know what the taste of the fish in his mouth was, looked at the people in front of him, and thought about the things in Shuzhou, which was separated by a river, and finally understood a lot of things.

No wonder the people of Shuzhou gave Wang Juan and Zhang Xiaobaoli immortal worship, no wonder they didn't allow others to say that Zhang and Wang were not good after crossing the bridge, and no wonder the army over there was so close to the people when they went outside.

This is all the ability of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, or the ability of Zhang and Wang, but they are all the same, and the children they teach are also like adults.

After eating fish today, if you do things for the people here in the future, the soldiers will not be disgusted, knowing that this is Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan's means, but they can't refuse this very comfortable touch, after all, the people don't have so many thoughts.

While the battalion commander was thinking about things, the people, led by the village, were still waiting for evaluation.

After a while, the battalion commander finally knew what to do, picked up another piece of hairtail, put it in his mouth, and kept nodding his head as he chewed hard: "It's delicious, it's delicious, I used a lot of spices and oil, right?" I heard that the seasoning of Zhang Wang's family is the best. ”

"It's not much use, it's not much, we haven't enjoyed much happiness before, as long as the soldiers eat well, and we still expect you to protect it."

The village waved his hand back.

"Come over to me and eat fish, the fish made by Erying Village." How can a person who can be the battalion commander be a fool, as soon as he hears it, he understands, the people here took out all their usual things, just to prepare this meal, and shouted at his subordinates who were still watching.

This is the good thing to be a soldier, listen to the words of the head, let the head eat, then eat, a thousand soldiers rushed over and launched an offensive against the fish.

Regardless of the image, this fish is actually not so delicious, not fresh, the seasoning is used too much, there is less of an earthy smell, not used to it, but this fish is made by the people, is it eaten once, I have not eaten the things given by the people in my own place before, even if I am not used to eating it, I must show a delicious appearance.

The people of Erying Village, except for the village who had been instructed by Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan to deliberately arrange this matter, the other people did not know the situation inside, and they all listened to the words of the village.

Waiting for all the fish to be eaten, the battalion commander smiled and touched his belly, and shouted to his subordinates: "Go up and see, is the ditch that sends water wide and deep enough?" Look at the house and see if there is anything that is not strong, and it will be repaired for me. ”
