Before the wooden chair toppled over, Chen Ping hurriedly lowered his body, picked up the little lady, and bluffed his face: "How dangerous, if the little lady falls down and scratches her face, she will become as ugly as a little flower." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

In a few months, Xiaohua has grown taller and stronger, wagging her tail, spinning at Chen Ping's feet, lifting her forelimbs from time to time, lying on Chen Ping's knees, opening her mouth, sticking out her tongue and flattering her face.

Unbeknownst to him, Chen Ping had already used it as a negative teaching material and told Chen Zhen to listen.

"Little flower, ugly." In her arms, Xiao Niang pointed to Xiaohua and shouted.

ushered in two barks, not fierce, but caused Xiaoniang to lean over, and her little hand slapped Xiaohua's head twice.

Shaking his head, Chen Ping crossed the courtyard gate and said to Chen Ya: "My grandmother is not at home?" ”

At this time, no one has come out yet, obviously the grandmother has gone out, Chen An should be in the township school, and has not come back yet, as for Chen Zhen, it must have been lost to Chen Ya to help take care of it.

"Well, Uncle Chen went to the mountains next to the brick kiln to help clean up the livestock pens, and Aunt Liu went to the winery to deliver food to the workers working there, and my mother also went." Chen Yadao, standing beside Chen Ping, quietly replied to Chen Ping's words, and glanced up at Chen Ping from time to time, revealing joy, "Brother Ping, why are you back at this time?" ”

"I'm going to Linyi." Before he spoke, thinking that Chen Ya might not know where he was, Chen Ping said again, "Leaving with the army, it may take a long time to come back." ”

Chen Ya's eyes tightened, and her voice was a little low: "Is it dangerous?" ”

"It's not dangerous, the court guards have been there once in the past, and this time they are going again to arrest their king." Chen Ping comforted, trying to be as light as possible, "When I come back, I will bring you a gift, maybe I can bring an elephant back." ”

"Elephants?" Chen Ya's dark and bright eyes blinked, looking at Chen Ping.

"Hmm." Chen Ping held Chen Zhen in one hand and raised it in the other, "So tall, so wide, with a long nose, fan-like ears, and curved and sharp teeth." ”

Chen Ya looked surprised, her eyes widened, and she stared at Chen Ping, even if she heard stories like Journey to the West, she was more curious.

After staying in the village for a long time, Chen Ping greeted his grandmother, and after comforting him, Chen Ping went to the foot of Liuhe Mountain.

There is a piece of land there that has just been reclaimed, the land is barren, next to Liuhe Mountain, about a mile away from Baitu Village, in a mountain col. Chen Ping paid the money and directly bought the land and used it as a training place for sergeants.

On an area of more than ten acres, several simple wooden houses were built.

When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, a group of guards were lining up in accordance with the training instructions given by Chen Ping when he left the military palace.

"They all stood up straight, their hands on their trouser legs, tense, their heads raised, and they looked straight ahead." When I entered, I heard Zhang Shan'an standing in front of a group of guards, shouting loudly, holding a bamboo stick in his hand.

Chen Ping didn't rush closer, but stood in the dark of the wooden house on the side, looking.

Zhang Shan'an's appearance was like Chen Ping in the military palace, with a serious face. He was among the top soldiers in the township, and he was among the top few in training, and it was Chen Ping's idea to train the guards with Zhang Shan'an.

Among the guards, if you stand in a military posture, Zhang Shan'an can only be ranked third, the first is Liu Zhuangshi, followed by Luo Dong.

But Liu Zhuang is honest, let him talk to Chen Ping, and he can still say a few words, in the military government, a group of guards in private, Liu Zhuangshi doesn't say much, but when asked, the speech is smooth.

But as long as he stood in front of everyone in public, Liu Zhuangshi immediately stammered, a simple sentence, dozens of words, he could repeat for half an hour, and he always forgot the words, and his brain was sweating.

Chen Ping let him try twice, originally with the intention of exercising, and the problem of cowardice and shyness is not impossible to correct. But on the third time, Liu Zhuangshi said that he would not go up again.

Seeing his expression as if he had been tortured, Chen Ping did not continue to persecute, he could only nod, thinking that he would slowly change it in the future.

Liu Zhuang is honest, he stammers in public, but in terms of training, whether it is standing in line, or raising a knife and slashing, or running and training, he is among the best, and he is really a natural soldier.

As for the second one, Luo Dong, also impressed Chen Ping, especially in spear training, after daily training, Luo Dong would always stay and practice alone.

It's a pity that Luo Dong only joined the guard, which is different from Zhang Shan'an and Liu Zhuangshi's knowledge of the roots, in Chen Ping's eyes, the ability is there, and the trustworthiness is still within the scope of the investigation.

"Xia Liang, what are you twisting there? It's only been half an hour, and you can't hold on? Have you forgotten what Chen Xianling told us? Sweat more on weekdays and bleed less in wartime. I didn't want to die on the battlefield, so I straightened up. Zhang Shan'an said, frowning at the same time, this Xia Liang has been like this more than once.

When he was in the military government, Chen Ping was pressing, although Xia Liang was occasionally lazy, but he didn't dare to come openly, but after the military service in the military government was over, he returned to Baitu Village, and without Chen Ping present, Xia Liang didn't pay attention to training more and more.

Zhang Shan'an had the intention of deterring, but he was afraid that Xia Liang was originally a county official and had a close relationship with Chen Ping, so he only stayed at verbal reprimands.

But like this, Xia Liang became more and more excessive, standing in line, and excused himself and said that he was dizzy, suffered from heat stroke, and needed to rest. As a result, it will take an hour or two.

Marching and running in the mountains, the same is the case, passing the stream, Xia Liang stopped, jumped directly into the stream, and took a bath before coming out again.

If you don't deal with it once or twice, the verbal warning can still make the rest of the guards not have much opinion, but after doing so again and again, the guards next to you are now doing the same, and they can't hold it down.

"I have been standing for half an hour, and the sun is so big, it is time to rest." Sure enough, this time, Xia Liang had a reason again, bent his legs, and covered his forehead with one hand, as if he couldn't withstand the scorching sun, "That gang of bandits has been exterminated, and there is no more war, what are you saying about training like this?" Could it be that there is still a big war in the imperial court? ”

After Xia Liang made such a fuss, the guards on the side, some of whom were not firm-willed, also nodded and echoed a few words.

Zhang Shan'an lifted the bamboo stick in his hand and approached Xia Liang: "Guard training, this is the rule set by the Chen County Order. You also agreed to it when you joined the military government. If you don't train on weekdays, if you really encounter a war, is it too late to train again? ”

"Xia Liang, if you disturb the morale of the army like this again, don't blame me for using military law to punish you." Zhang Shan'an felt that if he didn't press down today, he didn't have to wait, and tomorrow these guards might not be able to take them, and they wouldn't listen to his orders.

Xia Liang has no fear, Zhang Shan'an has said this several times, but the bamboo stick in his hand has not fallen on his body once: "War? Where is there still war, but you will tell me? You are just like me, just a gang leader, why can you reprimand me there, you think you are Chen County Commander? (To be continued.) )
