Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Wild March

The disparity in physical fitness soon became apparent.

In the rear army composed of C-class soldiers, except for Wang Dong, the others had not run for dozens of feet, and they had already begun to pant and walk frivolously, while Wang Dong gritted his teeth and only followed behind those B-class soldiers.

At this moment, if you look down from the sky, you will find a strange sight. The marching formation of more than 400 people, the small force of more than 50 people ran in the front, the formation was strictly organized, and then more than 10 zhang was the Chinese army team of more than 300 people, not to mention the loose formation, and the team was very long. In the back ten zhang, it is a rear army composed of one person, and as for the others...... It was left far behind.

Wang Dong clenched his teeth, endured the soreness of his legs, and followed closely behind the Chinese army. can not only keep up with the pace of the Chinese army, but also reflect from the side that Wang Dong's physical fitness is at least normal.

All the way, Wang Dong's legs became more and more sore, his breathing became short, he gritted his teeth and held on, and after about a quarter of an hour, the marching team began to slow down.

At this moment, the length of the marching column of more than 200 meters at the time of departure has almost increased tenfold, and this is not counting those who have fallen behind. It can be seen from this that there is a huge difference in the physical fitness of the more than 400 new troops.

Wang Dong, who was breathing heavily, ran more and more slowly, even faster than walking. Wang Dong knew in his heart that if he hadn't spent a lot of physical strength yesterday, then his current results should be better.

After jogging forward like this for two quarters of an hour, the people and horses in front of him suddenly became more numerous, and the dawn of the morning also shone brightly, breathing in the fresh morning air, and the sound of gurgling water came from Wang Dong's ears.

Looking closely, it turned out that not far away, a river appeared, and some of the new troops who arrived at this moment were drinking water by the river, while others were resting on the side.

Wang Dong breathed a long sigh of relief, and secretly exclaimed in his heart: "I have finally arrived at my destination." ”

After a hasty calculation, from the departure to the present, about half an hour has passed, and the march is about ten miles, which does not seem to be very fast, but do not ignore that this is a march in the field, there is no road, and it is already good for these new armies.

Wang Dong finally walked to the river, and was greeted by the general Wang Bei and two guards, the three of whom sat on the war horse, looking at Wang Dong.

One of the guards spoke: "Is there still a Chinese army team behind?" ”

Wang Dong shook his head, panting heavily, and said, "No...... Nope. ”

"Let's go there and rest for a while!"

Mo said that he was walking, Wang Dong didn't even have the strength to speak, he only felt that his stomach was empty and kept protesting, and sweat had already soaked his underwear and robe.

Wang Dong turned around and was about to walk to the river, only to hear the voice of the guard coming from behind: "General Wang, the last Chinese army has been listed!" ”

"The last Chinese soldier?" Wang Dong was stunned for a moment, then turned around and said, "I'm not the middle army, I'm the rear army!" ”

After saying that, Wang Dong turned around and wanted to walk towards the river, but unexpectedly, the king general behind him actually spoke: "Wait a minute." ”

With a flick of the horsewhip in his hand, General Wang Bei had already come to Wang Dong on a war horse, looked at Wang Dong, and said, "You said you are not a Chinese army?" ”

"That's right." Wang Dong nodded, he was very tired, and he wanted to go to the river to rest very much, but he couldn't think of this Wang Beijiang, but he didn't ask long and short questions.

The king asked the guards on the side, "With such quality, how could he be assigned to the third class?" ”

"Farewell general, subordinates don't know."

The C-class soldier, in the opinion of this Wang Beijiang, I am afraid that it will take two or three quarters of an hour to get here, and Wang Dong unexpectedly followed the Chinese army, such a physical quality is much more than that of the C-class soldier, and he should be assigned to the second-class soldier.

"Go, call me the guard who was in charge of testing yesterday!"

"Yes!"

The guard took the order, clamped down on his crotch, and the horse immediately galloped in the direction of the new army camp.

The king turned his head, looked at Wang Dong, and said, "You go over there to rest first!" ”

"Yes!"

Wang Dong received the order, and he was impressed by this Wang farewell general in his heart. From the march alone, it can be seen that Wang Dong's identity as a "third-class soldier" is problematic, and it seems that there have been some years between the marches.

Such a small mistake, not a single general has to personally ask about it, it can be seen from this that the officers of Datang are very professional.

Wang Dong began to guess that it was no wonder that the military might of the Tang Dynasty could spread all over the world, which must have an indispensable relationship with the countless good generals in the Tang Dynasty. Not to mention that among the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, how many good generals are there, even in this new military camp, there are such responsible generals, why should the army of the Tang Dynasty be bothered?

There is a saying that if there is a soldier, there will be a nest of bears, and the most important thing is how well an army fights, and the most important thing is those grassroots officers. Otherwise, no matter how elaborate the layout of the upper echelons is, without the careful cooperation of the lower-level officers, they will not be able to achieve victory on the battlefield.

For the quality of the officers of the Tang Army, Wang Dong began to secretly admire in his heart.

When he came to the river, the clear river water washed away the fatigue on his face, and Wang Dong lay down on the river bank and began to rest.

About half an hour later, the ranks of the rear army of the second class began to appear in sight, and their march speed was simply outrageous. However, for these new troops, the king did not reprimand them loudly, but just looked at them without saying a word.

After some time, two fast horses came galloping, and soon came before the king's general.

"Don't general, the guards in charge of testing the new army yesterday have been brought!"

The king's gaze turned to the other guard, and said solemnly: "Yesterday, when you took the test, were you negligent? ”

"Don't be a clear guide, your subordinates have great courage, and they don't dare to slack off in the slightest." Cold sweat was already on the guard's forehead.

"You go over there and call the soldier of the third class."

"Yes!"

Wang Dong, who was resting, was suddenly tapped on the shoulder, and turned his head, only to find that it was the guard.

"Don't call you."

Wang Dong looked in the direction of the Wang Bei General, and found that there was already one more person there, it was the guard who was in charge of testing with him yesterday, and he couldn't help but secretly say in his heart: "It seems that this Wang Bei Jiang is very competent, and he really found the guy who was in charge of the test." It looks like I'm going to move from Private C to Private B this time. ”

Wang Dong stepped forward, and the guard in charge of the test found Wang Dong's test data, and then put it in front of the eyes of the general Wang: "This person is looking for the flag in the dense forest, it takes three ...... minutes" As he spoke, the sweat of the guard had already flowed down, because he was also weak-hearted, because of this achievement, it was still modified by Cao Bing Cao's order, if this matter was found out, then he ......

After receiving the result handed by the guard, the king general glanced at Wang Dong and asked casually, "What's your name?" ”

"Wang Dong!"

For some reason, Wang Dong seemed to find that the moment he said his name, Wang Beijiang's body seemed to be shocked, and he immediately returned to normal, could it be that he was dazzled?

Unfolding the test results, Wang Bei will take a closer look, while Wang Dong waits for his order to "promote" Private B.

After a while, the king took the test results and said to the guard in charge of the test: "I know all this, you can go." ”

"Yes!" As a result, the guard secretly rejoiced as he turned his horse's head and galloped away.

"Go down too."

"Huh?" Wang Dong, who was full of expectations, was really surprised to get such a notice.
