Chapter 20: Sesame Plum II

In the Nanda Camp in Shouzhou City, the new army of the Red Turban Army is exercising intensively, and the entire Nanda Camp is densely packed with the new army of the Red Turban Army wrapped in red cloth.

Fu Youde and Wu Liuqi were standing on the high platform of the school field watching the drills of the new army, and their brows couldn't help but twist into pimples.

I saw that the new army was divided into several teams of 100 people, and the quality of the recruits' individual soldiers was not ordinarily poor; military divisions who had not undergone basic military training at universities were able to train, but even the most basic queues were uneven; from time to time, some descendants stepped on the shoes of their predecessors, and the predecessors blocked the view of the descendants, and each queue was twisted and crooked, which was simply unsightly.

"Fu Qianhu, when will the team be able to form combat effectiveness? I'm afraid that the army of Sutai will be killed under the city of Shouzhou, these recruits may not even understand the most basic orders, and when they see blood on the battlefield, they are not scared to run away, but they mess up their own military formation! Wu Liuqi, a thousand households in the Han army, pouted and said that he firmly believed in the theory that soldiers "are not many but fine".

Judging from his hereditary professional military household, the children of the family who have practiced martial arts since childhood, and only hereditary professional soldiers, can only form combat effectiveness in time when they are put together, and the military formation is a whole, and the retreat of individual people will affect the success or failure of the entire military formation, which is almost the same as the barrel theory of later generations.

Although Fu Youde knew that what Wu Liuqi said was the truth, now that there are few soldiers in Shouzhou, it is also a helpless decision, his background is not so noble, he used to be the king of Dangshan Mountain, and his subordinates are all low-level and broken families, even if he and Wu Liuqi are from two classes, he believes that there are many people, that is, the advantage caused by more people. It is almost the same as the meaning of "the urgency of the rushing water, as for the stone drifter, the momentum" in "The Art of War". Although he did not read anything about the Art of War.

Fu Youde retorted firmly: "Could it be that with your Han army of less than a thousand people, you can resist the Red Horse Exploration Army of Yesupai?" Can a thousand of you alone defend this Shouzhou City? ”

Wu Liuqi didn't expect that Fu Youde would provoke him with his words in turn, "This ......" He didn't have enough confidence to break 10,000, "Anyway, my subordinates Wu are also from regular military households, so it's better than these rabble!" ”

"Cut" Fu Youde said nonchalantly: "You people are just newcomers, and the chief manager can trust you, but in the eyes of my Fu someone, if you don't defect, you can be regarded as worthy of the manager's trust in you, but I don't dare to expect you to be able to follow the same charge as the brothers!" ”

Fu Youde attacked the Han army camp yesterday and injured many brothers, although Hao Shisan accepted Wu Liuqi, it doesn't mean that he Fu Youde will forgive him, at least not now.

"You ......" Wu Liuqi was kindly discriminated against, and he was extremely angry in his heart, gritting his teeth and saying: "My Wu someone's words count, since I have knelt down at the feet of the chief manager and sworn allegiance, I, Wu Liuqi, will definitely not go back on my word, I Wu someone is also Han, why do you say that I will defect?" If the Red Horse Exploration Army comes, I, Wu, will take the lead with my brothers! ”

"Did the Lord Administrator approve of you?" Fu Youde sneered: "If you don't listen to the orders of the chief manager and carry out military operations without authorization, do you want to drag everyone into the bottomless abyss?" ”

Wu Liuqi just kindly said a few words of his thoughts, never thought that Fu Youde would force each other step by step, he rolled up his sleeves angrily, and said viciously: "Fu Youde, your kid and the manager are not a few days earlier than me, I also inquired, you were originally mixed with sesame Li Er, Li Er was defeated, you have the opportunity to follow the head manager, you and I are both Han, don't be a wolf with a big tail with me here, what's the big deal......"

Fu Youde is also worried about the training of the team, and he is full of irritability and has nowhere to vent: "Yo? Wu Qianhu, is this going to be a comparison with someone for me? Am I still afraid that you won't be able to pay someone? ”

"Isn't I, Wu Liuqi, carrying a head on two shoulders? I'll be afraid of you? The two of us will face each other, and you will be involved in your brothers and cause senseless casualties! ”

"Compare and draw!"

"Whoever doesn't compare, who is a bad seed!"

When the two thousand-household officials were talking, they pulled each other up, and they wanted to see each other.

Hao 13 led a pair of guards into the barracks, and the actions of the two were seen by Hao 13, and the two also saw Hao 13 at the same time, and reluctantly let go of each other's hands.

Hao Shisan said with a smile: "What? Is it useless for the two thousand households with great strength? Stirring up trouble in front of so many brothers, and not being afraid of the ridicule of the brothers? ”

Wu Liuqi took the lead, and angrily argued for himself: "Chief, Fu Qianhu looks down on our newly attached Han army, and even the chief manager doesn't say a word about me Wu Liuqi, he pays Qianhu, what qualifications do you have to say about me?" ”

Fu Youde also argued on the basis of reason: "He Wu Qianhu looked down on our newly recruited brothers, saying that it was difficult for them to form combat effectiveness, so I argued with him......

Hao Shisan waved his hand, interrupting Fu Youde's words, and his color immediately became stern, and said, "Enough!" I don't want to listen to who of you is right and wrong, you are all old, how can you still play like a child? Do you want to solve the problem by force at every turn? ”

"Aren't I also in a hurry for the brothers' training?"

"The subordinates are also considered from the perspective of our Shouzhou Red Turban Army!"

"Enough! That's enough! I still have something to discuss with you, so let's turn over this matter first", the two officials of the thousand households saw the stern expression of the chief administrator, and glared at each other angrily, but they no longer dared to refute.

Hao Shisan looked at the crowd full of black and oppressive military camps and asked, "General Fu, how many new troops do we have now?" ”

"Back to the general manager, the newly accepted brothers who joined the army and the original brothers were mixed together, and a total of forty-six hundred people were formed, that is, there were four thousand six hundred people!"

"Oh!" Hao Shisan thought for a moment and said: "Shouzhou is divided into two military camps in the north and south, and the brothers can't practice in one place, so you take twenty hundred-man troops to be stationed in the military camp in the north of the city, as the thousand-household official on my left, the two-thousand-person team and training and combat will be handed over to you!" ”

Fu Qianhu hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted: "The last general will obey the order!" ”

"Wu Liuqi!"

"The last general!"

Hao 13 said again: "I transferred a hundred people from you, and now I will give you five hundred recruits, you lead the original team of men and horses are still stationed in the Nanda camp, as my right-hand Qianhu officer, in the future, I will charge into battle, and I will rely on General Wu more in a short time." ”

Wu Liuqi didn't expect that as a general, he could be assigned to recruits, and he was also a thousand households on his right, in the Han dictionary, the right has always been more noble than the left, so isn't his status above Fu Youde? As everyone knows, Hao 13 is talking about left and right hands, comparing him and Fu Youde to left and right hands, and Hao 13 is a left-hander.

Busy gratefully: "The last general is willing to serve the dead!" ”

"Allocate a team of 100 people to Mu Youcai as a helper to assist Mu Youcai in doing a good job in logistics, and the remaining 20 teams of 100 people will be incorporated into my 1000 households of the Chinese army, and there is currently no suitable candidate for the officers of the 1000 households of the Chinese army, and I myself will personally serve as the 1000 household officers of the Chinese army!"

I have just returned from the treasury, and according to Xiucai's report, there are still some armor and bows in the treasury, although they are not much, and they can be equipped with some brothers for the time being. ”

Wu Liuqi asked uncertainly: "How come there is still the armor of our right army of thousands of households?" Our original team Marco has some equipment! ”

Hao Shisan patted Wu Liuqi's shoulder and said, "Aren't you my right hand Qianhu?" Of course, there is, but it may be less allocated, and by the way, you will also receive half a year's salary owed to you by the Mengyuan Court! ”

"Steward!" Fu Youde stopped: "The Red Turban Army paid the army of the old imperial court, there is no such precedent?" ”

"Pay thousands of households, your right army thousand households also refer to the salary system of the right army, first pay two months' salary, in the future, our Shouzhou Red Turban Army, to develop a complete salary system, I haven't thought about it yet, for the time being, let's follow the old practice of the Mengyuan court!"

Fu Youde saw that the new army under his command, which did not have much combat effectiveness, could also get two months' salary, and he had nothing to say: "The last general will obey the order!" ”

Hao 13 pointed to the white cloth bag on Fu Youde's waist and said with a smile: "What about the sacrifice prepared for your boss?" ”

Fu Youde subconsciously touched the white cloth bag containing the head on his waist: "The chief manager said that he would pay tribute to Li Er and Li Dashuai with his subordinates, so the last general did not change his claim without authorization!" ”

Poor Fu Youde is full of heartfelt love for the Savior!

Hao Shisan looked at the sun on the three poles, it was indeed a good weather with a beautiful wind and sun, "It's better to choose a day than to hit the sun, I think I will pay tribute to Li Dashuai today, so as to avoid a piece of your heart!" ”

In a few days, the three sacrifices for the sacrifice have been completed, and in the barracks, a sacrifice platform for sesame Li Li Er was set up, and Li Er's tablet was offered, and three incense sticks were lit.

Fu Youde burst into tears, respectfully holding the head of Asu Nayan wrapped in white cloth in front of the offering table, kneeling to the offering table, respectfully putting the sacrifice on the table, and crying and complaining: "Big brother, since the defeat of Xuzhou, I have always wanted to use a head of more than 10,000 households in Mengyuan to commemorate the boss, yesterday Meng Hao 13 chief foil, today I have the opportunity to use the head of Shouzhou Dalu Huachi Asu Nayan to pay tribute to the boss, boss, you can go with peace of mind......"

"I think you started from Xiao County in the past, known as the chivalrous spirit, in the year of famine, you used a warehouse of sesame seeds to help the hungry people, so the rivers and lakes have the title of sesame plum, with the power of eight people, capture Xuzhou, divide one side, what a hero!"

"Xuzhou was defeated, we waited for the retreat to Dadong Mountain, the team was scattered, Peng Dashuai, Zhao Jun used Dashuai, Mao Guidu Governor is gone, I and only me and Li Xixi followed the boss side, the boss sent me and Li Xixi out to collect the scattered brothers, never thought, but was Tokh took the opportunity to capture the camp, the big marshal fell into the hands of the enemy, I and Li Xixi gathered the remnants of the army, ready to take off the prisoner car on the way to Beijing to sacrifice prisoners to rescue the boss, never wanted to get rid of the old man's tricks many paragraphs, when Xuzhou broke the city, he played the court old war dead, I am afraid that it will be difficult to explain to the court when I escort you into Beijing, so I secretly executed you, and the brothers did not even seek your corpse, and my brother is guilty! ”

Fu Youde cried angrily and complained, the more he talked, the more sad he became, a sincere heart, but the sun and the moon can be learned, "Now the brothers are a little settled, but the scenery of the Xuzhou army is no longer there, Peng Da, Zhao Junyong, Mao Gui took refuge in Sun Deya in Haozhou, and Li Xixi and I led some of the remnants of the army, and came to Yingzhou to take refuge in Liu Dashuai with all difficulties...... God is pitiful, let me meet the teacher of King Ming, Hao Shisan, the chief manager......"

Hao Shisan listened to Fu Youde's long story, his heart was not desolate, he was in awe of Sesame Li Er, and he was also moved by Fu Youde's loyalty and courage, seeing that Fu Youde's remaining words were to put gold on his face, he couldn't listen to it anymore, so he hurriedly pulled up Fu Youde on the ground, and persuaded him earnestly: "General Fu's Day mourning, don't cry and break your body, you and Wu Liuqi will still be my right and left hands in the future!" ”

Fu Youde, with the pull and support of Hao Thirteen's guards, was finally better.

Hao Shisan couldn't help but light three incense sticks and knelt down in front of Li Er's spiritual seat, after all, the dead are the greatest: "Old hero Li, you can go with confidence, your brother followed me, I won't let him die tragically at the hands of Xiaoxiao......"

I don't know when, a dark cloud drifted over the originally clear sky, obscuring the brilliance of the sun, making the entire Nanda camp become an unusually solemn atmosphere, and the majestic wind blew the military flag and grinned, as if singing a tragic elegy for the deceased anti-Yuan hero - Sesame Li.
