Chapter VII: Joining the Army
After negotiating with Meng Tian that day, Zhao Jun officially joined the Qin army.
In fact, the process of joining the Qin army was very complicated, from confirming the identity, to registering, issuing military badges, and then going to the military camp to receive weapons and armor, including bedding, as well as clay pots for eating and military camp living utensils.
In the end, Cao Wuxian took Zhao Jun to familiarize himself with the barracks, as well as some barracks rules and places that need attention.
However, Zhao Jun also learned from the rigorous style of the Qin army, and the strict system, it is not by chance that the Qin army can unify the six countries, and the military camp should have the rules of the military camp, two or three hundred thousand bloody men get together, if there is no rule, it will not be chaotic.
Zhao Jun's current position is Meng Tian's personal soldier Lu Chief, under the command of Meng Kui, a partial general of the pro-army, and he has a separate camp tent, which is in the same place as the camp tent of a Lu soldier under his command.
Meng Tian is a general, commanding 300,000 military horses, according to the regulations, he can have 30,000 personal soldiers, but in fact, after the Qin State unified the six countries, there was a lack of troops, and many people's personal soldiers were greatly reduced, plus Meng Tian himself was voluntary, so there were only 5,000 personal soldiers.
The Qin Dynasty's personal soldiers are equivalent to personal private soldiers, and the promotion of internal positions is also made by Meng Tian himself, so Zhao Jun can be directly appointed as the commander of Lu, otherwise there is no merit, and there is no title, which is impossible in the Qin army, which attaches great importance to military merits.
Meng Kui was very enthusiastic about Zhao Jun's arrival, and he did not have the majesty and rigor of his superiors to his subordinates, so he took Zhao Jun to the camp tent on the spot, and went to the food camp to get a little food, and said that it was to catch the wind for Zhao Jun, during which he told Zhao Jun a lot of things about the military camp, as well as what the soldiers should do, what to pay attention to, and so on.
Zhao Jun found that although Meng Kui was a little straightforward, he was quite kind and righteous, and he was rigorous and meticulous, so it was no wonder that Meng Tian put him in charge of his own soldiers.
Slowly, Zhao Jun and Meng Kui chatted, and they both felt very speculative with each other, and they became friends.
Also, through Meng Kui's narration, Zhao Jun understood the distribution of troops in the whole army.
In addition to the pro-soldier scout battalion, the pro-soldiers of the generals, and the auxiliary soldiers, the regular combat strength of the border army totaled about 280,000, that is, there were 28 generals, half of whom were brought out by Ruan Weng Trong from Lintao back then, or had a close relationship with Ruan Weng Trong, which was regarded as Ruan Weng Trong's faction.
And the rest, including Wang Li, are all considered neutrals, and there are only eleven people who really support the Meng family, which is one of the reasons why Ruan Weng Zhong can confront Meng Tian in the military camp.
Although Meng Tian once had the merit of destroying Qi, in addition to the factors of his father's generation, his own relationship in the army was not as deep as that of some veterans.
That night, Meng Kui was in Zhao Jun's military tent and chatted until late before leaving.
At night, sleeping in the barracks for the first time, Zhao Jun thought about the gains and losses of the previous incident, and thought of Meng Tian's actions in the Shuai camp last night, I am afraid that it was not only what Meng Tian said, he valued himself to train himself to contribute in the army to fight against Ruan Weng Zhong, otherwise, he would not have shown himself so quickly.
Moreover, through contact, Zhao Jun found that Meng Tian was not as upright and glorious as history said, at least he had a little selfishness for his career, so he would cultivate wings.
However, Zhao Jun did not reject this, but believed that such a Meng Tian was the real Meng Tian, a Meng Tian who could be befriended, at least Meng Tian's heart to serve the country, and the deeds of fighting against the Xiongnu and developing the northwest to support the people are true.
The next morning, when Zhao Jun finally had leisure, he asked Cao Wushu to call Yingbu, and then the three of them gathered in Zhao Jun's military tent.
When Zhao Jun saw Yingbu, he almost didn't recognize it, this guy may have been malnourished before, but now that the food in the barracks has improved, he has actually gained a lot of weight, although the overall is still relatively lean, but it feels a little strong.
The originally thin and pale face also has a hint of gloss and blood, and it is no longer so scary as a ghost.
It's just that the momentum hasn't changed, and he is still as arrogant as a wolf as always, with sharp eyes and a lonely and indifferent face.
"Yingbu, I haven't seen you for a long time, it's all biased, not bad." Zhao Jun couldn't help but nod and smiled faintly, he was indeed very happy to see Yingbu.
Yingbu's always arrogant and cold face, when he saw Zhao Jun, he rarely squeezed out a smile, and said in a deep voice: "I heard Cao Wuxian tell you about your experience, it's amazing." ”
Yingbu's words are still very few, but they are true, after finishing speaking, he sat on the edge of the bed in the tent, Zhao Jun's military tent naturally can't be compared with Meng Tianshuai's tent, and there is no need to think about kneeling cushions, stools or anything.
Cao Wuxian laughed at this time: "Hehe, it's okay now, we finally get together again, and in the future, the three of us will have to walk sideways in the barracks. ”
Zhao Jun smiled, Cao Wuxian, this guy still can't change his temperament, he is always so showy.
"Hmph, how did Yingteng beat you last time, did you forget? If you leave the king, you will only lose even worse. Yingbu snorted coldly without giving face.
Cao Wuxian's face turned red, and he immediately opened his mouth and said: "You don't speak, no one treats you as a dumb person, last time you won against the winning goods, it was also difficult to win, against Wang Li, I am afraid that you will also be beaten down, and you will say me." ”
Zhao Jun couldn't help but shake his head beside him, these two brothers always pinch each other together, I'm afraid this problem can't be changed.
"What? Didn't hurt you lost to Winton? ”
Zhao Jun opened his mouth and asked, Cao Wushu can be regarded as a famous general in history, since following him, the force has progressed rapidly, how can he lose to Yingteng.
"Well, don't mention it, foot combat is not my specialty, I can only last seventy rounds on the school field."
After hearing this, Cao Wuxian said a little dejectedly, but then said fiercely: "If you open the distance and let me use a bow and arrow, I promise that within a hundred steps, he will die under my arrow, if he gets on the horse and fights, although I can't defeat him lightly, but he is not my opponent." ”
Zhao Jun nodded after hearing this, Cao Wuxian's archery skills are extraordinary, and he is proficient in horse riding battles, it should be good, at this time Zhao Jun turned his head to look at Yingbu again.
Yingbu said in a low voice: "Last time I fought with him in the school field, more than a hundred rounds, before I narrowly won, he is an apprentice trained by Ruan Weng Zhong, his own qualifications are good, and he is indeed a very powerful general in the army."
If he fights to the death on the battlefield, or has a spear in his hand, at most seventy knots, I can kill him under the horse. ”
There are many rules in the school field, and it is not a life-and-death fight, Yingbu is trapped hand and foot, and his strength can't be brought into play at all, looking at the expressions of the two, he should be very aggrieved with Yingteng.
However, Zhao Jun still frowned, this Yingteng strength cannot be underestimated, since he can suppress Cao Wushu in the school field, and it is inseparable from Yingbu's fight, then who dares to guarantee that he has no tricks on the battlefield.
Moreover, this person has a strong background and a vicious mind, and this time he must be jealous of himself, and I am afraid it will be a big trouble in the future.
Yingbu said again at this time: "Don't be too taboo about him, after all, General Meng Tian is in charge of the army, General Meng is deeply trusted by the emperor, and his family also has a lot of energy in the court." ”
"Yes, boss, I heard Meng Kui say that General Meng Tian has a high opinion of you in private, and since he made you the head of the army, he must be thinking about cultivating you." Cao Wuxian said with a smile at this time.
Zhao Jun nodded, he knew what the two of them meant, it was for him to follow Meng Tian's footsteps, with Meng Tian covering, Ying Teng would not dare to mess around.
However, he doesn't like to put his fate in the hands of others, Win Teng may not have no weaknesses, it seems that he must be in the army, gain a firm foothold as soon as possible, it is best to make great achievements, and even if he has to deal with himself, it is not so easy.
