Chapter 160: Chishui (End)

The people in the tent didn't know that the visitor was coming. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

Butter candles were lit all around, illuminating the inside of the tent. Including Chen Mingjiang, the officer of Sentry B, all the officers of Sentry B sat on the pony, and Cao Jinliang stood in front of everyone and talked eloquently: "Today, let's talk about benevolence." Many people say that it is rare to be a soldier and a general, wise and brave, and to be loyal and righteous is even more rare in the world. But I'm going to say, those people are talking bullshit! It's a dog raised by ordinary people and they still know how to take care of the home, but when it comes to people, it becomes rare, doesn't it mean that martial artists are not even animals? When he said this, he paused for a moment, looked around at the people sitting at the head of the house, and said earnestly: "Those people are wrong! Don't you hear that Guan Yunchang, who is the first in the world, is a martial artist? ”

"Therefore, loyalty and righteousness are the nature of our warriors, but few people talk about benevolence." Cao Jinliang casually clicked on a certain chief below: "Zhang Hang, tell me, what is benevolence?" ”

"Ren ......" called Zhang Hang's chief to stand up hesitantly, stretched out his hand and scratched his scalp, and said hesitantly: "Do you think it means kindness?" ”

"Yes and no." Cao Jinliang nodded at him and motioned for Zhang Hang to sit down, the latter hurriedly sat down as if he had escaped, Cao Jinliang only smiled in his heart, but continued with a serious face: "The gentle one is also benevolent." Therefore, I am not wrong when I say that Zhang Hang is right. But the benevolence we are talking about is not such benevolence, but benevolence, and people! ”

"What is benevolence? To put it bluntly, before you act, you have to be a person first! Don't we often say, 'That's not what people are supposed to do?' It's because this person is different from animals! People know honesty and shame, and they run through morality, so they are people! Our D team has many rules and regulations, I know, some people have not complained at the bottom, and think that the entire Xianzi battalion, the entire Sichuan army, is the big rules of our D team! There are many rules! ”

"But if you think about it carefully, what of these rules are not for people to do? Even a five-year-old child knows that the advance and retreat are orderly, neat and clean, is it possible that he does not know that he is a dignified man? Since you wear this military skin, isn't it your duty to practice martial arts in the army? Cao Jinliang looked at the thoughtful officers below and said slowly: "Just like it is a fair thing for us to get the silver, it is the duty of our warriors to fight with peace of mind and dare to fight forward!" Some people don't do their duty well, but they are thinking about how to pick up money and how to pick up cheap every day. What kind of soldiers did you bring? ”

Although his voice was not very loud, a cold sweat was heard on the backs of the underground elders. Originally, night classes were supposed to explain tactical combat examples, or read books and learn words, but it was rare for Shangguan to give a special lecture on a class whose content seemed to be unrelated to reality. There are a few older and more sensitive people, and they can't help but think that when they are still in the escort team, once they take a class like this, most of them will suffer later. They looked around covertly out of the corner of their eyes, and for a moment, the atmosphere in the tent became a little more eerie.

Cao Jinliang is a veteran soldier, his eyes are extremely vicious, and he knows what the officers are thinking at a glance. He had a narrow temper, and he didn't bother to correct the misunderstanding of the elders, so he simply continued to speak in a wrong way: "Now there is a kind of idea in the team - not only the Xianzi battalion, but also the entire Sichuan army, the Ding team is the most capable and the most capable of fighting!" If you want me to say-" His face suddenly changed, and he scolded like a storm: "Bullshit! How many times have you seen the world, you dare to put your eyes on the top of your head to look at people! Why, the Xianzi Camp can't fit you? The Sichuan army can't fit you? Fight a few barbarians, and think it is an immortal martial art? Let me tell you, without us, the officers and soldiers will chase after the southwest and fight head-to-head! ”

"After a few victories, I began to slack off, and in the past few days of night classes, you have asked yourself, how many have come!? I tell you, don't think that your position is stable, our D team has always been the capable and the mediocre! The soldiers are one by one and still know how to forge ahead, you sesame big officials, dare to put up an official stand!? ”

None of these words are named, but everyone is in the same outpost, eating and living together every day, where do some people not know what they do? At that moment, everyone's eyes drifted towards a few people, and they saw that their faces were blue and red, red and white, and they felt that there were thorns on the horses, and their buttocks hurt, and they couldn't sit still.

Li Yongzhong stood outside the tent for a long time, his face calm and difficult to distinguish between joy and anger, and when he heard the last paragraph, he chuckled inexplicably. Qin Yong, a personal soldier, stood behind him and didn't dare to come out - there are a lot of people here, who call him brothers and sisters at a sky-high price on weekdays, and some people dare to secretly ask him about the preferences of the team officers! Although Qin Yong's mouth was tight, his heart was indeed a little more fluttering! If it weren't for Cao Jinliang today, I'm afraid that in a few more times, he would have made a big mistake!

After listening to it for a while, it no longer said this, but turned to the tactical learning of the tithe, which began to talk about the cooperation of spears and firearms, Li Yongzhong listened for a while, felt that there was no problem and turned away, Qin Yong hurriedly followed him, the two of them walked silently for a while, the soldiers felt that their legs were heavy and stiff, he reached out and touched his chest, only to feel that his heart was about to break through the thin layer of skin and jump out, swallowed saliva, he was uneasy, and said in a slurred voice: "Team officer......" Qin Yong only had time to shout, was interrupted by Li Yongzhong.

"Qin Yong, you said earlier that you wanted to go down and lead the troops, right?" Li Yongzhong stood in the shadow of the light, and his personal soldiers couldn't see his face clearly, so they only heard his voice flat, and continued unhurriedly: "Originally, I thought that our personal guard system was indeed about to be revised, so it was better to let you stay until then, but now that I think about it, your temperament is so lively, and it can't help but be a little boring around the officer, and now that the war is imminent, it is good to have one more grassroots officer, you can go to Adjutant Cao tomorrow to report." ”

When Cao Jinliang came to find it, he only saw a faint figure in the tent of the black hole. Although he was lazy, he was really a delicate man, and he withdrew his left foot that was about to step inside, stood still in front of the tent door, took off his helmet and clamped it under the pressure, and raised his voice slightly and shouted: "Team officer, Cao Jinliang is ordered to come." ”

Li Yongzhong's voice came through the darkness: "Ah, it's Jin Liang? How to be polite? It's dark, why don't you light the lights? Then, with the sound of footsteps, a young man in armor emerged from the darkness with an oil lamp, and he casually handed the oil lamp to his soldiers: "Borrow a fire." Then when the oil lamp was faintly lit, he nodded at Cao Jinliang and said, "Sit inside." ”

Cao Jinliang was not polite, he walked into the tent behind him, bent down and picked a horse to sit down, put the helmet at his feet, and looked up to see Li Yongzhong with a stunned face, but his eyes seemed to be looking through the void. He coughed, pulled Li Yongzhong's attention over, and said slowly: "Qin Yong went to find me just now." He observed Li Yongzhong's face, "Said team officer, you asked Qin Yong to come down and lead the troops?" ”

"It's enough for him to be a senior." Li Yongzhong's face was calm, as if the person with a confused expression just now was not him, and casually commented on this pro-soldier who had been following him for a long time: "I have combat skills and courage, and my results in night classes are also good, but my temperament is not stable enough, and I am still too jumpy, so I have to press it well." ”

"The people released in the hands of the team officers, where is there anything bad." Cao Jinliang replied with a smile, the words are good words, but it's a pity that the person who spoke is a little less sincere, and people can't believe it in their ears anyway. Li Yongzhong glanced at him, turned around and took a tea bowl and put it in front of him, reached out to carry the teapot, and said while pouring water: "I only have cold water to drink here, if you don't dislike it, accompany me to drink a few glasses of water." ”

"Years ago I said you were always too self-conscious." Cao Jinliang restrained his expression, reached out and put the tea bowl to his lips and took a sip slowly, it was indeed tasteless cold water, which had been boiled about before, and it tasted like a rusty smell of scale. He took only one sip and put it down, refusing to touch it again.

Cao Jinliang remembered many years ago, when he earned his life from the end of the road, and realized that the road ahead was boundless, and he thought that he was looking for a random errand to make a living, but he didn't want to meet a very different master. Over the years, it can also be called a sentence about the vicissitudes of the world. He always has a playful look on weekdays, and he is very aware of the subtleties, but he is very human.

"What kind of bitterness is this?" Li Yongzhong laughed briefly, as if he didn't want to talk to the adjutant on this topic, he said casually: "I don't know where An Bangyan is now." ”

"The news came last time, didn't it say that it was still in Shuixi City?" Cao Jinliang said lazily: "But with An Bangyan's personality, I'm afraid I don't think there is anything to fear about the official army, and Xu Junmen and Hou Junmen are two old battles, and Zhu Zhitai is also different from ordinary civilian officials, he calms the people with one hand and suppresses thieves with the other, which is much stronger than the old official Zhang Heming before." ”

"I'm just here, go out and take care of your mouth." Li Yongzhong glanced at him warningly, but saw Cao Jinliang with a disapproving look, and when he saw Li Yongzhong looking over, he reluctantly responded: "I'm not stupid, how can I talk about this outside?" ”

Li Yongzhong glared at him, but didn't say anything, the two of them sat opposite each other for a while, and Li Yongzhong said inexplicably: "Originally, I thought that they were all old brothers from Fushun, and they were brothers who were in one place, and they were brothers who entrusted life and death, so there shouldn't be those dirty thoughts, but I never thought that I was a little neglectful." ”

"In life, there are many thoughts, how can I say accurately?" Cao Jinliang comforted him meaningfully, he grew up in the army since he was a child, and he has never seen a hundred or eighty such things. Only a young man like Li Yongzhong would have illusions -- this is also where Cao Jinliang is puzzled, although Li Yongzhong is young, he is very old and spicy in handling things, and he has been rolling in the business sea all the year round, so it stands to reason that he really does not seem to be so naΓ―ve.

"Yes," After being silent for a long time, Li Yongzhong nodded with an unpleasant face and sighed: "But I thought it was simple." I thought we were pretty good compared to the team next to us......" He cut off and didn't go any further.

But Cao Jinliang had already understood what he meant, smiled in his heart, his face was tense, and he only said: "You are harsh, please blame everything." Compared with the team next to us, we are not small good, but big good. What are you going to do? ”

Li Yongzhong was silent for a while, and said in a firm tone: "When this is over, the pro-guard system will be completely changed!" In the future, in addition to the two posts, another group will be regarded as the Chinese army in the team, and the officer personal guard quota will all come out of the Chinese army! March 1st Rotation! I don't believe it, pave a wide avenue out, and who else can stand on the top of the mountain! ”

He said it vaguely, but Cao Jinliang understood it. On the one hand, I feel a little incomprehensible, but on the other hand, I also vaguely feel the benefits of this - the traditional military system reached the end of the Ming Dynasty, and it really reached a time when it could not be sustained, if the course of history had not been rudely interrupted, maybe China would have been able to find a system suitable for the armed forces after various experiments like Europe, but history has no ifs, the old dynasty collapsed, and the new dynasty was born, but it only brought destruction and retrogression, and the professional military system that was gradually maturing at the end of the Ming Dynasty was replaced by the semi-slave military system until a few hundred years later-" The enemy is coming from the sea".

But in a moment of urgency, Cao Jinliang couldn't have thought about such a new thing, he simply didn't want to do it--this is not what he was anxious about at the moment-"This time I came back from Baisasuo, plus the previous credit, I am afraid that the position of the team officer will be moved." Cao Jinliang's expression was frank when he said this, "I'm afraid we have to make a good plan, this is a great opportunity." ”

"I was about to talk to you about it." Li Yongzhong paused, and slowly told Cao Jinliang what Chen Xianda had told him before, and finally he said lightly: "Listen to my father-in-law's intentions, he has discussed with the commander early in the morning, and I am afraid that he will have to explain to the battalion tomorrow." It's just that this is not a team that we brought out single-handedly after all, and there must be countless complexities and unspeakable aspects. ”

"It's always good to get the position of battalion officer." Unlike Li Yongzhong's view, Cao Jinliang was well aware of the importance of dispatch in the official army, so he did not take Li Yongzhong's worries very seriously, and he had other things to say. Therefore, he said solemnly: "The team officer must be stable in his work before, but since he entered the camp, he gradually made Lao Cao and I have thoughts that I can't understand - when you were in Fushun, Zhong Guan'er, you acted smoothly and properly, but since you joined the army, I feel that you have gradually shown some signs of impatience and impulsiveness, take this road as an example-If it was before, Zhong Guan'er, you would definitely not be so directly confronted with Hou Yonggui, but you just fought with Hou Yonggui. This matter was held back in Cao Jinliang's heart for a long time, until he vomited at this moment: "Before joining the army, let's discuss it, we originally wanted to do it in a low-key manner, but when you count it carefully, since you entered the camp, one by one, where is it low-key?" ”

He stared at Li Yongzhong tightly and asked word by word: "The big war is coming, I have doubts in my heart, and I am looking forward to Zhong Guan'er to solve my doubts today." (To be continued.) )
