Chapter 66: The Levy Army
Fortunately, Lao Zao was prepared in this regard, and brought strange people from Donghai County in this regard, and the technical problems could basically be solved, and the next question was only the question of where the wood came from, obviously, I did not fully consider this problem when choosing the camp. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
There are a lot of huge trees in Wutu Mountain, and it is really not a wise choice to cut down trees from dozens of miles away and transport them here, relying on manpower alone, so at the beginning, a few trees were cut down around the perimeter, and all the trees that could be useful were cut down and carried back to the camp.
After half a day, the pile-up of trees can only be regarded as a drop in the bucket, and it is a joke to complete the fence blocking of the canyon mouth, so I have to give up this plan first, or dig the moat first, the effect is fast, and it is practical.
These questions seem to be very easy to think about, especially as a commander, there is no need to sell his physical strength in person, however, this command is not easy to be, because Lao Zao is not a master who is easy to fool, he is asked and checked all day long, and when he is idle, he plays in the tent with his beautiful concubine, and there is no ghost.
Don't fool around with his beautiful concubine, he called me to Gao Ling from time to time, preached something, said what to do, how to deal with it, when to slow down, where to speed up, he seemed to be clear, clear, tired of the sergeants below miserable.
He was the commander behind the scenes, and the black face was all played by me and Gao Ling, and Lao Zao didn't seem to be asking for our opinions, it was completely the general's order, and the military order was like a mountain, and it could not be violated.
Gao Ling and I were a little anxious, forced by this Zhenwei general, however, Gao Ling and I didn't have any way, the conscription army didn't come, and our 100 or so sergeants were not Hercules, so they couldn't complete the basic protective facilities within half a month according to Lao Zao's hot-headed ideas.
Mars led a group of Fire Moon Sergeants to Donghai County to lead the levy army for three days, according to the calculation of the journey time, this day's noon is just right to have lunch, however, noon has passed, it is three o'clock in the afternoon, and there is still no shadow of the levy army.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Fang saw the long procession coming in no order, people were lazy, listless, tired, like a team returning from a march for most of the day, unable to lift the spirit and interest, my heart suddenly cooled most of the time, and soon understood, I overestimated the overall physical fitness and mental outlook of the people of Donghai County.
Waiting for people is a torturous patient work, waiting for a big team is even more a torturous patient work, I can't estimate how long I waited, I was depressed to death, stupidly accompanied by the Martian battalion leader standing in front of the canyon grass and talking in my heart, all about these conscripted new troops, the future is worrying.
Why is there a delay in time, this is a violation of the military order, the above order will arrive when it arrives, and the violation will be punished, Mars looks very helpless, these East China Sea physique is like that, stop and go, it is already very good to be able to be only a few hours late, not to mention that they will be on the road with weapons and dry food as soon as they come.
I also said helplessly: "I thought that even if the levy army of Donghai County was not as strong and powerful as our Huoyue people, it would not be so weak and weak, if it was such a person, it would be a fool's dream to want to produce results in a short period of time." ”
"These people are all inferior people in Donghai County, the good ones are all lazy and lazy, idle second-rate people, and the rest are either poor and poor, or slaves from everyone, most of them are old, weak, sick and disabled, and they want to train for results, unless there is a year or two, otherwise, these people are sent to death when they go to the battlefield." Mars said mockingly, not knowing whether he was optimistic or pessimistic.
"This conscription is a fool, conscripting such soldiers, don't you know that Donghai County is not short of people and lack of food? Mediocre people are wrong. I said angrily, I really wanted to scold that bastard to my face.
"I'll show you something, this is a list made by the conscription soldier Cao, saying that these people will be promoted to colonels above the rank of captain, and it has been decided, just give it to General Lao for inspection." Mars gave me a list full of names, and as far as the eye could see, they were all names and other things, and it made me want to tear it apart.
The relationship on the earth, the back door, the unspoken rules, I have heard a lot more, but I didn't expect that it is still the same here, two societies and two places, the same rules, is it a coincidence, or is it originally the same destination?
"When the team is assembled, you go and hand it over to General Lao, and tell him about it by the way." Mars told me that he wasn't going to do it himself.
"I'm afraid it's a raccoon dog, he should have known it a long time ago, and after so many years of crawling and rolling in the officialdom of Donghai County, he won't be unclear about the rules." I said worriedly.
"Then stab the matter to Prince Lao and ask him to deal with it." Mars said angrily.
"It's not a big deal, as long as the eldest prince Lao has given us the right to train the soldiers, are you afraid that you will not be able to obey those new sergeants when you get to the barracks, there are ways to control them, there is no need to stab the eldest prince, otherwise it seems that we are too incompetent." I said with a sneer.
"Then hand over the list to General Lao, we don't care about this idle matter, it will make people hateful and hateful." Martian Obscurity.
"Say it or say it, and have an excuse to say things in the future." I said slyly.
I went to ask General Lao Zao to come and give a lecture, and the team finally arrived after half an hour of assembly, and most of the people present were already tired, so they simply sat on the grass to rest, panting, beating their legs, rubbing their waists, like an old woman.
I sighed and walked to our camp of General Zhenwei, and coincidentally, I did not find him in General Lao's tent, but in the camp of his concubine.
I said, "The levies have all entered the camp, please go out and give a lecture." ”
"It's all assembled so soon," Lao Zao was still interested, and although the dead outside were not worth their lives, he got up and said, "Okay, go and lecture." ”
"General, please also wear the general's armor uniform, so that you can reflect the majesty and momentum of the general's army, and not let the proud and complacent sergeants feel contemptible." I reminded that the General Law seemed to want to go on the field and speak in civilian clothes.
Sure enough, he retorted: "It's not a big deal, I'm General Zhenwei in armor, I'm still General Zhenwei if I don't wear armor, I'm not so particular, on such a hot day, wearing that heavy armor suit, it's strange if it's not steamed, go, lead the way ahead." ”
I want to suggest again, he has already walked briskly, provoked his little concubine in tulle, bare arms and hemispheres, and said hurriedly: "General, general, wait for me." ”
"What are you doing, waiting for you?" Lao Zao scolded with a smile.
"I also want to go see those levies and accompany you to see and see." Mrs. Lao Qi said in a coquettish voice, and said charmingly, the knowledge is fake, and showing her face is the truth.
"This can't be done, taking you to live in the barracks is already a taboo in the army, you don't want to get an inch in and mess up, in that case, I will send you back to Donghai City tomorrow." Lao Zao said very harshly, and her concubine was not allowed to insist on it.
Mrs. Lao Qi said unhappily: "There is suffocation in this barracks, they are all reckless men, and they are not interesting at all. ”
Lao Zao said angrily: "I don't accompany you every day, if it's really boring, then I'll send you back to Donghai City tomorrow." ”
"It's not boring, it's not boring, I'm just joking, I want to see if the conscription army is real, and I deliberately said so." Mrs. Lao Qi said with disgust and joy, making Lao Jujube seven up and eight down, and her heart was itchy.
Lao Zao reflexively walked out of the tent, and I followed behind and reminded: "It is more formal and proper for the general to wear armor and clothing, although you are a general after all, however, the first impression is always the deepest." ”
Lao Zao seemed to have a feeling for this first impression, stopped and thought for a while, looked at me and suddenly smiled, turned around and went back to his own camp tent, changed into the fiery red general's armor uniform hanging on the camp tent hanger, and put on a red helmet on his head.
