Chapter 077: Reserve Captain

The advancing army marched all night and marched towards Chishui in the dark, and the next day the soldiers rushed to Chishui to join the army, and rested for a day before recovering. Li Wencai was shocked and afraid that he didn't close his eyes all night, but after coming to the army, he fell asleep, even if he was killing and shaking the sky outside, he didn't hear a bit.

Knowing that the next afternoon, Li Wencai yawned beautifully, touched the palm of his hand very habitually, and then pinched it, and suddenly woke up, it was not his wife who slept next to him, no wonder it was hard to touch, Li Wencai got up and saw that there were more than a dozen five big and three thick sergeants sleeping on a big kang, snoring and snoring, and sleeping next to him was a shy and big-headed soldier with a big belly, who looked like a fat-headed fish.

Li Wencai broke out in a cold sweat, looking at these soldiers who were dirty, their beards had not been shaved for many days, and the unpleasant smell on his body made Li Wencai about to vomit, although Li Wencai was an imposter scholar, but the fake scholar was also a scholar, where had he been with these big-headed soldiers, it was disgusting, Li Wencai crossed his waist and shouted: "The enemy is in, run." ”

The sergeant, who had been asleep, sat up like a corpse at an uncatchable speed, then put on his armor, put on his hat, and put on his boots, the whole process took only a few seconds.

Li Wencai couldn't help but admire these soldiers who were fighting, the combination of movement and stillness was so perfect, it was really shocking, Li Wencai whistled like no one else, holding his boots and wearing them slowly, those sergeants looked left and right, where there was any enemy army, so they all gathered their angry eyes on Li Wencai's body, and the big-bellied fat-headed fish sleeping next to Li Wencai just now asked Li Wencai with an unkind look: "Did you call it just now?" ”

Li Wencai was humming a little song, and he was not happy to hear it, so he shook his head and said: "Big brother really knows how to ask, others ask me without asking, is it bullying the newcomer?" ”

"It's because you're new here, that's why I asked you, everyone has never slept here before, why have you been making trouble since then?"

Li Wencai twisted his face proudly, walked out with his hands behind his back, and said as he walked: "Damn, I see that the master is a bully, why don't you ask me when you pick up the money." ”

"Don't let him, don't think about this door until you make it clear." Everyone very unanimously surrounded Li Wencai and beat him hard, and the new recruits who just came blew up their dicks, and they didn't know how many eyes Ma Wang Ye had without a lesson.

"The eldest brother raised his noble hand, the younger brother just now, he didn't know how to count the etiquette, Haihan Haihan." Li Wencai saw that everyone's faces were not good, and his fingers were crackling, this is the rhythm of beating, so a clever person, kneeling on one knee, holding his hands in fists above his head, just finished speaking, his hands opened, and there were dozens of copper coins in his hands.

The sergeants reached out and took a few big coins and stuffed them in their arms, and then everyone hooked up with Li Wencai's shoulder to shoulder.

"Brother, look at your handsomeness, why did you come to be a soldier, needless to say, you must have been arrested as a strong man."

"Mess with us in the future, who dares to bully you to mention our name."

Everyone immediately looked like brothers, Li Wencai smiled, and said in his heart that money is really a magical thing, it can make people turn their faces faster than turning a book.

Everyone was talking and laughing, the door was opened, and a soldier in silver armor looked majestic, followed by several sergeants with long knives, and everyone immediately stood in a neat row when they saw it.

I saw that the very handsome and mighty sergeant stood straight, his sharp gaze swept over everyone, and then his eyes fell on Li Wencai's body, which immediately made Li Wencai's whole body nervous, and cold sweat swished, damn it, wouldn't he be pulling Lao Tzu out and shooting, wasn't it just a bribe just now, as for this?

"Li Wencai is on the list." The sergeant shouted.

Li Wencai was so frightened that his legs trembled, he almost fell to the ground, and walked out tremblingly, his face had turned into white paper, and he was already holding a silver ticket of 1,000 taels in his hand.

"On the instructions of General Qin, Feng Li Wencai is the reserve lieutenant, responsible for the supply of grain and grass, feeding the military horses and other logistics matters, and will take office immediately, and there must be no mistakes." After the sergeant finished speaking, a soldier next to him came over with a captain's uniform.

Li Wencai wiped the sweat on his head and threw it on the ground fiercely, damn, I saw that Lao Tzu was scared, I knew that I was promoted to the Minister of Logistics, and his mother was still scared like this, so he solemnly finished the military uniform, and said with a smile: "The subordinates receive the order, and the subordinates must do their best." ”

After Li Wencai finished speaking, he stood up and pointed to the group behind him and asked, "These are all my subordinates?" ”

"Yes, from now on they will all be under your command, and you will be their commander." 、

Li Wencai's face was happy, he turned his head, smiled evilly at his subordinates and said: "I really didn't expect that I would stand out from the crowd in an instant, as your commander, it is very necessary for me to say two words, first of all, I want to emphasize military discipline, as a soldier who fights a war, you must definitely be loyal to the country, the army, and the people, you can't be knocked down by sugar-coated shells, accepting bribes casually is a corrupt act, if you have already accepted bribes, you will hand them over, it is not too late." ”

Everyone looked at each other, damn it, the person who bribed us was you bastard, and now you are pretending to be so righteous and awe-inspiring, it is simply hypocritical, and everyone is paying money one party after another as if they have signed in.

Li Wencai was very satisfied with everyone's performance, and said to the sergeants beside him: "Actually, their every move is under my nose, and I know better than them how much money they charge." ”

After Li Wencai finished speaking, his face turned cold and he pointed at the big-bellied fathead fish and shouted: "You come over for me, hand over one less copper plate and think I don't know, come on, pull me out and hit ten big boards." ”

The black line on the sergeant's face, the person who General Feng hijacked back is really unusual, and he can convince these soldiers when he comes up, and there are definitely two hits.

"Can anyone tell me who the person who just came?" After a few sergeants left, Li Wencai sat on a large chair with his legs crossed on a desk in front of him, and everyone saw only two black boots dangling.

"The person just now is Captain Wudu, a military general from the sixth grade, he is a subordinate of Vice General Feng, this person is very brave in battle."

"From the sixth grade, I am not as big as the prefect of the county government, so what about me, what kind of military rank am I?" Li Wencai shook his boots and asked angrily.

"This ...... Lieutenants do not have official ranks, and loose officers who are not registered in the military department are generally appointed and dismissed by the chief general of the army, which is also for convenience and flexibility. ”

When Li Wencai heard this, he almost fell headlong, damn it, he doesn't even have an official title, he is a black household, this is too tricky.

"And you are also a reserve captain, to put it bluntly, during the examination period, you can only become a formal captain, and you are responsible for the materials needed by the military, the reserve supply of military horses, food and grass, as well as the cleaning of war horses, and the cleaning of sergeant uniforms...... And so on and so forth. ”

Li Wencai was about to cry after hearing this, and opened his mouth to shout: "Why don't they invite a confinement wife, I can't travel with money?" ”

Everyone was stunned!

"Erfat, you go and gather all the logistics brothers for me, I want to have an emergency meeting." Li Wencai was very angry, this official doesn't even have a rank, every day is harder than fighting, this fucking can't do it, call on the brothers, let's disperse, go back to their respective homes.

Li Wencai held his hands behind his back, and there was a big word 'school' written on the back of his military uniform, and the word 'guy' under the other subordinates, to put it bluntly, they were all cooks, Li Wencai swept this group of guys, the old, weak, sick and disabled were all here, full of calculations, and couldn't pick out a few who stretched out their hands neatly, which was too bullying, let me lead such a team of people to confront the enemy.

"I'll just say a few words." Li Wencai was excited, he didn't have a little fighting spirit, he lowered his head and said like a mourning party: "I will take care of the logistics chores in the future, there is good food and drink, our brothers will have a mouthful of addiction first, and then send the rest to the front line, don't sleep all day when you have nothing to do, find a shady place to fight the landlord, play cards or something, relax, it's best to grab a few people's girls over, and then the brothers don't have to do the laundry, so what, just say this, do you have anything else to ask?" ”

The lame old man Zhang stepped forward and reported: "We are running out of grain and grass, and the imperial court has not sent us food for a long time. ”

Li Wencai became angry when he heard it, no wonder there are thieves everywhere now, the court is too corrupt, those corrupt officials eat and drink well, I don't know if they are hiding at home and hugging their beautiful relatives, counting the money and their hands are trembling, damn it, if they estimate it, it will be the opposite.

Li Wencai suddenly realized that in such a turbulent society, if you want to protect yourself and live a comfortable life, you must mix up your personal appearance in the officialdom, otherwise a flat-headed commoner, those harsh taxes alone can make you breathless. This is the relationship between the hungry wolf and the sheep, although the hungry wolf is insidious and cunning, but only by becoming a wolf, can you choose to eat the sheep or not to eat the sheep, wolf nature and human nature is a flexible relationship, especially in such a society.

Li Wencai touched his chin and pondered for a long time and said, "I will report to the general, and when the time comes, everyone will follow my orders." ”

The supply of grain and grass is almost out of supply, and he is said to eat meat, Li Wencai has only eaten two dry nests in the past two days, this kind of life is too different from his before, who would have thought that life in the barracks is so hard, Li Wencai originally wanted to escape by night, but after these two days of life in the barracks, Li Wencai's world view has changed.

In two days, after seeing too many people displaced, many of the people who fled died on the road, as well as the corruption of the imperial court, the profligacy of the high-level caused the treasury to be empty, the pressure was transferred to the people, and the harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes followed, and the people were miserable.
