Chapter 41 Ivanov
Picking up a veteran oil at the gate of his house, Zhu Bayi was in a very happy mood. Although the smell coming from behind me was really unpleasant, and I was dizzy.
The veteran oilman Ivanov did not realize that he was a little farther away, and along the way, he kept bargaining behind the horse's tail, "The master is a nobleman." The nobles are all God's favorites and have mercy in their hearts. After captives, their families are allowed to pay a ransom to redeem their freedom. ”
"When you slaughtered the city in Pei County, did you give the locals a chance to spend money to redeem their lives?!" It was so unbearable that Zhu Eighty-one couldn't help but turn his head and ask with a pair of big eyes like cowbells.
"That, that," Ivanov was immediately asked, his lips curled for a long time, before he muttered in defense, "then, that's an order from Lord Wuru!" He, he's the main general. Ivan, Ivan was just a centurion at the time! No, I'm not qualified to propose to him! ”
"You didn't think about raising the knife a few inches?! Let them take the opportunity to escape?! Zhu Bayi glared at this person fiercely again, and accused angrily.
He didn't have the slightest good impression of these city slaughterers. So for two months, I never thought of interceding for anyone. In view of the fact that the Red Turban Army as a whole lacks combat training, he has to waste it. The latter wanted to get more from him, but it was difficult to reach the sky.
Ivanov was dumbfounded by the question, and followed the horse in silence for a while, before he muttered again: "I, I'm a mercenary, only, I only know how to fight." The general said this, I, I really didn't think about it at the time. I don't think about it! ”
"Then you think slowly, how many years should you work under my account to atone for your crime of killing innocent people?! Hong San, you take him to the barracks outside the West Gate, wash him first, and then take him to see me!" Zhu Bayi dropped a sentence, speeding up, and went far away first. Only Xu Hongsan, the captain of the pro-soldiers, looked at the lost Ivanov, pursed his lips, and counted in a low voice: "Why don't you know what to do?!" It's a great favor for you to be fished out of the coolies. You're still thinking about leaving after two years?! In just two years, are you worthy of the grace of your life?! Besides, this place is tens of thousands of miles away from your hometown, even if the adults let you go, how can you get home alive alone?! ”
"I, I" Ivanov squatted weakly with his head in his hands. He had seen that Zhu Bayi was soft-hearted and easy to speak, so he had the courage to try to fight for his greatest interests. As for whether two years is enough to atone for sins or repay gratitude, and how to return home after the two years, I don't even think about it.
Xu Hongsan did not fuse souls from another time and space, and he looked at the blood debt of slaughtering the city far less heavily than Zhu Bayi. Seeing that Ivanov was quite big, but he was squatting on the ground and making mud, he couldn't help but pout, and mocked in a low voice: "No wonder you are called a coward, it turns out that you are a boneless one!" You can't go home alone, won't you find a way to kill hundreds of brothers all the way back? As long as we drive away the Tartars together, the brothers will accompany you on another trip to the Western Regions, what can we do?! ”
"My name is Ivanov, not a coward!" Ivanov immediately raised his head with red eyes and loudly protested. However, thinking of the time spent on the way to China and the risks encountered along the way, he felt weak all over his body, sighed, and said: "How easy is it to drive the Mongols away? ! The Slavs, Catalans, the Great Cannibals, and the pagans in the west have been trying all these years. Which time, wasn't it killed by the Mongols and there were corpses everywhere?! It can't be, you can't. The reason why Ivan offered to work for adults for two years is because he knows that you can't last longer. You can't even hold out for two years, and although the gunpowder is powerful, you can only throw it closely. The Mongols are far away with bows and arrows, with crossbows, as long as you don't get close! It's impossible, the way you are now, you probably won't be able to last even half a year! ”
"I'll smash your stinky mouth!" Xu Hong was furious, and the sheathed knife slammed into Ivanov's face.
"I'm just a slave to the Governor!" Ivanov was originally a ruffian, and at the moment there were no chains on his hands and feet, so he was willing to swallow his anger any longer. immediately waved his fist and rushed up, wanting to fight with Xu Hongsan
It's been two months since I've eaten a full meal, and I can't use much strength at all. And Xu Hongsanyuan himself is not weak, and in the past six months, he has eaten with his belly open. Therefore, as soon as the two fought, they immediately decided the winner. Ivanov, who looked two heads taller than the other party, was instantly knocked to the ground by Xu Hongsan. The scabbard pounded on the head like a wooden fish.
Then Ivanov didn't have a chance to get up and fight back, so he had to cover his face with his hands, sobbing and crying, "Impossible, absolutely impossible." I'm telling the truth, telling the truth. Even if you are indeed the Lord of the Governors, as rumored to be, it is unlikely that you will be favored by God. In the past, every time they rebelled, the Slavs offered sacrifices to God, and each of them carried a cross on his chest. But all the same, the Mongols were killed and there were corpses everywhere! ”
"But we're resisting after all!" Xu Hongsan didn't know what the cross was, but he knew that Ivanov was not optimistic about the future of the Red Turban Army. While continuing to smash the scabbard at the other party, he counted it relentlessly, "After all, when we were alive, we didn't stretch our necks out to cut people again." And you, who have been a soldier for twenty years. Just learn how to lick the Mongol's ass! ”
"I didn't!" Now, but Ivanov was stimulated, and another one got up and glared at him. "I've always been brave in war. Than, braver than the Swiss. For the first time in so many years, I was taken prisoner. Still, I was stunned by the gunpowder bomb made by your general, and I was caught by you! ”
"If you don't accept it, follow Lao Tzu to report to the governor! Be brave or not brave to see you in front of you, don't blow your mouth here! Xu Hongsan hit him a few more times, put away his knife, and flew to jump on his mount. Let's go, go to the shower with Lao Tzu first, and wash away the smell of your body. If you can't beat the Mongols, how do you know if you haven't tried?! At least, we haven't lost until now! ”
"Try?!" Ivanov's eyes lit up and he repeated in a whisper. Just try it, there's nowhere to go right now. It is better to follow the general surnamed Zhu than to continue to dig up dung. Maybe one day you can really bring a team of brothers back to your hometown?
I thought that one day in the future, I would return to my hometown as a liberator. The Mongolian lords who rode on the heads of their parents and brothers were torn off their thrones one by one, and chained to dig up dung. And his eyes grew brighter and brighter. Try it, anyway, even if you lose the battle, with your own skills, you may not have a chance to escape from the battlefield.
With the intention of mixing in the Red Turban Army for a while, he followed Xu Hongsan to take a bath. Then Xu Hongsan took him to Mr. Su and received a set of iron armor and iron-clad combat boots. After dressing neatly, he went to the conference hall where Zhu Eighty-one usually handled official business to report.
Zhu Bayiyi also took a bath and changed his clothes. is holding the art of war that Sun Tzu just bought. Seeing Ivanov's heroic appearance after putting on the armor, he nodded with satisfaction. smiled and said: "Well, it's indeed a piece of material for being a soldier." I have considered the conditions you just now, ten years, after ten years of working with me, I can let you go. In the past ten years, I will give you the military salary of the commander, and I will not deduct a penny, and I will eat and wear. When the contract expires, you leave with the money, and you can buy a manor for retirement when you go back! ”
He temporarily found a way to motivate employees from the memory of the 21st century, so that Ivanov would not lose hope and fail to work. Unexpectedly, Ivanov also changed his mind at this moment, he didn't think about it, and responded loudly, "Ten years is ten years, I don't want military salary." But you have to give me a team of 1,000 people, how this team trains, how to fight, and who to make an officer, I have the final say! ”
To be sure, this is not too much. Whether it is the Red Turban Army or the Mengyuan side, the generals' control of the army is not very fine. In addition to the personal soldiers, the commanders of each army are basically at the level of commanders. The commander himself is responsible for the appointment and dismissal of officers below the commander of a thousand commanders, the training of the troops, and even the salaries of the troops. The generals above did not interfere at all.
However, Zhu Eighty-one, who has fused the memories of the two worlds, is unwilling to do so carelessly. Long before the Wura Buhua soldiers came to the city of Xuzhou, he personally grasped the training of the soldiers, and selected the grassroots generals of the auxiliary army to the first floor of the centurion.
After the last fierce battle, his control over the army was even stronger. All the generals above the centurion, regardless of the soldiers and auxiliaries, were replaced by the last group of brothers who accompanied them to blow up the Vultures. The officers who led the auxiliaries that day, but did not go to the outside of the city to participate in the battle, were all demoted by one rank and became deputies to the newly promoted. But at that time, all those who cowered and did not move forward, no matter who was promoted in the first place, were demoted to small soldiers. As for the few who escaped from the team at that time, they were even deprived of their qualifications to be soldiers, and went directly to the auxiliary soldiers to do the hardest and most tiring work.
Therefore, for the newcomer Ivanov, Zhu Eighty-one was absolutely unwilling to directly send him to lead the army alone. One is that this person was a prisoner of the Red Turban Army, and his prestige was not enough to convince the public. Second, he Zhu Eighty-one is not the legendary king and overlord, and the enemy general who has just been caught dares to let the other party guard the door of his sleeping tent with confidence. Therefore, after listening to the other party's request, he smiled and shook his head slightly, "The military salary is still for you according to the commander, but I will not send you down to lead the troops." ”
Seeing the disappointed expression on Ivanov's face, he paused, and he continued to add: "You were captured by me, and you look different from everyone else. Go straight down and lead the troops, and the brethren will definitely not listen to you. It's better to stay by my side first, do the army, and do military affairs. Work with me to find a way to train the brothers and teach them how to fight. How can you win against the Mongols without gunpowder?! ”
"Impossible?!" Ivanov immediately shook his head, not believing that the Red Turban Army had any hope under the same conditions of weapons. However, seeing Xu Hongsan's eyes glaring at him again, he immediately changed his words in a panic, "I, I can try." The Mongols, the Mongols are actually not as good as they used to be. They, they are living too well, already, not like, not as courageous as their predecessors. That, that, their army organization is too rough, below a thousand people, it is a hundred ladies team, and below a hundred people, it is directly a team of ten people. The interval is too large, and the command is particularly scattered. Let's start here and change it first. When it comes to the battlefield, it is better to hit their weak links in a targeted manner! ”
