Chapter 258: Three-year period

(Ask for the guaranteed monthly pass in your hand)

Although the departure date is approaching, as long as the training has not been carried out for a day, the training matter cannot be pulled down.

Qi Wan was assigned to the Sword and Shield Pawn, and his commander was none other than the heavily armored warrior. This person's name is Mu Xia, and he is the first batch of cronies of the brigade commander, although the beast's head looks scary, but Qi Wan feels that the head of the pawn is actually not vicious, I heard that he is also from a humble background, he was just a shepherd boy at first, but he was promoted all the way to the position of the head of the pawn.

It seems that the brigade commander is indeed a "meritocracy", which is by no means a lie.

The two of each were put together, and after a few days of running-in, they finally managed to get out of the phalanx without getting stuck when switching queues.

Subsequently, they were given a full set of weapons: a two-foot armor, a two-foot sword, and a poplar shield that could be hung on their arms.

Mucha said: "You must know in your heart what you are going to do in this business, if you are not clear, just look at the weapons in your hands." ”

Qi Wan understood that this thing was not for paint brushing, since he was recruited as a soldier, he naturally wanted to kill people for the brigade commander......

"There are hundreds of people in a pawn, if there is chaos on the battle array, if there is chaos against the enemy, you push me, then the opponent's spear will be pierced, and the chariot will run over, and it will definitely be a dead end. So we must set the rules, the most important one is to listen to orders, do not listen to orders, even if you fight alone, you are also a bad horse of the herd, obey orders, ∝, even if you don't know how to fight, you can become a pawn! ”

During a break, the captain of the curtain finally revealed his true face, and it turned out to be a simple-looking young man.

He said to Qi Wan and the others, who were out of breath: "All the military officials were the same as you a year ago. They are all farmers and herdsmen who can only plough the fields. The first time I ran around Chengxiang with a gentleman, few of them could qualify. The gentleman let us have enough food and clothing, and meat can often be seen in the kettle. After a year of training, it became what it is today. From the Jin Kingdom to the Song Kingdom, no one was left behind, the first battle of Jianjin, the thirty chariots on the opposite side impacted, and no one escaped, presumably a year later, you and others will be the same! ”

Since then, the daily formation training has been halved. Followed by the use of weapons, as well as physical training, and occasionally being led to a kick between the other pawns, after watching twice, Qi Wan became addicted.

Of course, the bedding still has to be folded, and the brigade commander said that it will have to be folded until they are discharged from the army at the end of the third year. However, Qi Wan felt that even if he returned home. He will also fold the quilt every day like a madman, which has become a part of his life.

In addition to acting in groups, sword and shield bearers were required to have certain individual combat skills, and Mucha often corrected the posture of his pawns: "Not with the blade of the sword. Instead, attack with the tip of a sword, as a quick stab to the stomach will knock your opponent down faster than a single slash. ”

The new pawn also had to take a blunt-tipped wooden sword made of hardwood instead of a real sword. Firmly erect a pillar seven feet high on the ground, and make it an enemy. Train the poplar shield and the blunt-headed wooden sword. Aim for the pillar and treat it as an opponent. Practice all your offensive methods and fighting techniques. Sometimes attacking the head and face, sometimes threatening the ribs, and then trying to slash the hamstrings and legs that the armor can't protect, back, attack, and jump.

After the first pawn training was so-so, the pawn commanders began to discuss joint training, first the joint training of the two arms, and then the joint training of the third pawn or even the whole pawn.

In this way, Qi Wan began to recognize the tasks and positioning of his heavy foot soldiers in the whole brigade.

Mucha said to them: "The heavy infantry are at the forefront of the array, and when defending, we must hold our shields to block the arrows, and when we attack, we are the swords that crush the enemy's line, especially in the hilly terrain where the terrain is broken, we are the main force to win the battle!" ”

They also had a rough idea of the other troops: the Wen soldiers were more cowardly with bow-shaped weapons called "crossbows", but when they stood in three to five columns on either side of the heavy infantry and fired crossbow arrows at wooden targets in batches, no one dared to stand in front of them.

Qi Wan's cousin's spearman was the main force with the largest number of soldiers, three full pawns. Walking in the queue and phalanx is the strictest requirement, after all, the sword and shield bearers can still fight if they are alone, and the spearmen must rely on collective play.

They were not required of any personal martial arts, and the officers only trained them to stand in a large formation of twenty-five men and four people, with shields in the first row. When you hear a drummer who is a musician beating the drum, stop when you stop, go and go, and then stab forward, left, and right at the command.

As for the light knights, who come and go like the wind and rush like thunder, their main role at the moment is to harass the enemy formation, as well as to protect the crossbowmen on the flanks.

At the beginning of May, Zhao Wuxian came to inspect the soldiers again.

He stood on the platform, and saw that in each phalanx, all the crossbowmen from the old pawns of Wen County stood the most neatly, followed by the sword and shield pawns and the spearmen, although in the eyes of Wu Xian, he could only say that he had a slight appearance, which should be the result of these days' training.

Le Ziming also sent the priest Chen Dingguo to "steal the teacher to learn the arts", Zhao Wuxian wished that the Le soldiers could be stronger, so he didn't hide his selfishness, let him observe, and Zhang Mengtan also accompanied him.

Wuxian looked at the new pawns who were not very satisfied, but in the eyes of Zhang Mengtan and Chen Dingguo, it was like a mountain city: the newcomers had already stood honestly and did not move, looking at their swords and shields in their hands, and their spears were like forests, they felt even more murderous.

"It's already on par with my Le's armor!" Chen Dingguo exclaimed.

"A strong army indeed!" Zhang Mengtan is not good at military affairs, and he thinks so.

In fact, in the era of cold weapons, being able to walk the phalanx without deformation is already considered an elite soldier. To do the order and forbid, and compare the dead with the other party, is the elite of the elite.

But Zhao Wuxian knew that these novices were under him.

"It's far behind, but the Le's soldiers can approach and move motionless against the chariot, whether it is tenacity or combat effectiveness, they are much stronger than these newly recruited soldiers. Now that the other generation has simply practiced together, although it looks like it looks like it at the moment, when it comes to summer hunting for a while, it will be revealed in its original form. ”

This is also Zhao Wuxian's application with his uncle Ziming, borrowing Le's Lin Yuan to have a summer hunt with a big practice. The prey was given to the soldiers to improve their food before they set out for a long journey.

The training of the new soldiers has only been more than 20 days, and the basic concept of queue has been mastered. Simple obedience can be done. After kneading them together, when they are asked to cooperate on the hunting grounds. It's barely visible, but once it speeds up and deals with all kinds of complicated situations, whether it's the commander or the soldiers, it looks a little chaotic.

Zhao Wuxian shook his head and said: "So, we have to continue to practice, but in half a decade, we will set off to the north, hoping to make progress in the march and really become an army." You've got to see blood. ”

Before leaving, he still had to say goodbye to Le Lingzi, and from beginning to end, Wuxian hadn't told her about leaving Song Kingdom.

……

In the Le Mansion, the residence of the gentleman.

Zhao Wuxian pushed the door in, and walked in softly with only his full clothes.

Le Lingzi, who was dressed in a sketch, sat quietly on the couch and looked at the medical books sent by Bian Que. From the shirtless position, her shoulders were a little thin because of her grief. But no one can doubt that as early as when Le Qi was still there, this woman was able to take on the internal affairs of a clan.

Although Lingzi is the concubine of Sicheng Le's family, she is proficient in medical skills. It can even treat the wives, daughters, and sons-in-law of the Song State Office. Especially with Nanzi, the only daughter of Song Gong's most beloved, no one dared to belittle her because of Le Qi's death.

Even, the head of the family, Chen Yin, once quietly said to his brother Chen Dingguo. This gentleman, along with her future husband Zhao Wuxian, is much more reliable than the head of the family, Le Wei. It is no wonder that the old family master will not be greedy for the jade to pass on to the woman but not to the man.

Wuxian walked to the opposite side of her and sat down, but saw that the girl's body was slender and fit. Although his appearance is still a little childish, because of witnessing Le Qi's death, it is like a cocoon transformed overnight, and his eyes are a little more mature and tenacious.

Seeing that Wuxian was coming, Lingzi raised his eyes and looked at him gently, the corners of his lips raised slightly, revealing a charming smile as gorgeous as an epiphany.

Le Lingzi's feelings for Wuxian deepened a little after he would rather risk being arrested and expelled to escort Le Qi's coffin back to China. With Zhao Wuxian's comfort and companionship, she has come out of the pain of losing her father, and the huge hole in her heart has been filled with a new one.

When the boy didn't know how to speak, the girl put a box of bamboo grates filled with various needles and stones between the two.

There are a lot of medicines for the treatment of water and soil, typhoid fever and ulcers, all of which are wrapped in bottles and cans to indicate the purpose, and it can be seen that they are extremely attentive, which is specially prepared for the fiancé to go out.

"Lingzi, what do you mean by that?"

Le Lingzi's originally somewhat lonely face showed a faint dimple, and his clear and graceful eyes stared at Wushirt, revealing a helpless smile. Zhao Wuxian had not yet told her about leaving the Song Kingdom, but Le Lingzi observed the movements in the Heavenly Mansion and the Yi these days, and felt the throbbing in Zhao Wuxian's heart, but he had already expected it.

She said lightly: "A gentleman is a person who wants to do great things, although Lingzi is not reluctant to be a gentleman, he is also willing to be your Ji Kui and Qi Jiang, I only hope that the gentleman will not let me wait for twenty-five years." ”

Zhao Wuxian took the bamboo fence, and there were bursts of reluctance and emotion in his heart, as well as shame.

Back then, when Jin Chong'er was in exile, Bai Di married Ji Kui, a girl from the Guiru clan, and after being a husband and wife for twelve years, he wanted to leave Di Di and go to other countries to find opportunities. So he made a vow with her, "Wait for me for twenty-five years, and if you don't come, you will marry". Ji Kui said with a smile, twenty-five years later, the cypress trees on his grave are all old, there is no need to leave a deadline, I will wait for you forever.

And Qi Jiang, the daughter of Duke Qi Huan, resolutely conspired with Hu Yan to get Chong'er drunk and send him out of Qi when Chong'er was happy in Qi and forgot to return.

Jin Wengong's ability to achieve hegemony is inseparable from these two women.

Zhao Wuxian stroked Le Lingzi's hand, and also knew her determination and sacrifice from her words.

He also swore an oath: "Three years, wait for me for three years, and then the mourning period of Lebo will be over, and I will be able to accomplish my career, and I will come to marry you." ”

Le Lingzi smiled on her face, but tears burst out of her eyes, wetting her plain skirt.

Zhao Wuxian gently wiped away her tears, while Lingzi tried his best to hold back his tears, and returned him with a smile and said:

"Concubine!"

A thousand words, only turned into these three short words, but they are heavy promises!

Although there has been intimate contact on Taihang Road for a long time, after Le Qi's death, both of them were courteous people, so they never got close. Now there is no one in the room, and under the emotion, it is only the two of them who have ten fingers together.

After a long time of silence, Le Lingzi muttered: "But before the gentleman leaves, the concubine still has one more thing to ask for." ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it."

"Two days later, it will be the gift of Nanzi, the princess of the Song Kingdom, there is a banquet in the office, and the concubine and the princess are friends in the boudoir. Now that the concubine has filial piety, I can't go, and I hope that the gentleman will go to watch the ceremony for me, how can it be? (To be continued......)
