Chapter 14 (II) Famous Gentleman

Although Tao Ying's selection conditions are harsh, but fortunately, there is a lot of room for choice, so after spending most of the day, Tao Ying finally picked up the number of 800 recruits, and it was also at this time that Tao Ying suddenly remembered that there would definitely be many recruits who would be eliminated in the process of training, so Tao Ying temporarily decided to pick 100 more recruits as a preparation, Cao Bao did not object, and agreed to Tao Ying's request with a smile - anyway, Tao Qian, the boss of Xuzhou, is Tao Ying's father, and the official yamen of Xuzhou was opened by the Tao family. Tao Ying temporarily decided to recruit an extra hundred soldiers, and there would definitely be no problem with Tao Qian.

As for the equipment and military rations of recruiting more recruits, and other ensuing problems, Tao Ergongzi and General Cao don't have to worry about it, that is the problem of Cao Hong, the logistics director assigned by Tao Qian to Tao Ying, no matter how much Tao Ergongzi and General Cao Da fall, they will definitely not fall into Cao Hong's position.

So, after several twists and turns, our Tao Ergongzi's recruit team finally made up the number of 900, and held an army formation ceremony in the evening of the same day in the Xuzhou East Gate Elementary School - in fact, it is to stand in line, lead the army to wear the military flag, listen to Tao Yingxun's words, and then get together to eat a meal of grass and dinner, and then you can end the ceremony and go to sleep.

Considering that the soldier culture of this era is generally not high, Tao Ying did not make a long and dull speech that he had experienced in the system, standing on the high platform in front of the nine hundred recruits, Tao Ying shouted directly and bluntly: "Brothers, today is the big day of the establishment of our team, I won't say anything else, I just need you to remember one thing!" Keep two questions in mind! ”

"Brothers, you have all heard clearly, from today on, you are the soldiers of the Han Dynasty, no matter the wind and rain, thunder and hail, you sit with your hands high, every month you will inevitably have three stones, three buckets and three liters of corn (Han Xiaoshi, weighing about 30 kilograms)! Every year, your summer singles are indispensable, and winter fur fur is indispensable! ”

"Brothers, these are all you deserve, but you must remember that these grains, rice, cloths, and furs were all collected from the Han people by the Han government, and your clothes, shoes, meals, and food are all the blood and sweat of the Han people! That's what I want you to remember! ”

"Brothers, now the first question is, why do the Han people support you? Why do you need to use their blood and sweat to feed you with their blood and sweat every day of hard work in the wind and rain? ”

"Why? Don't you expect you to go into battle to kill the land, defend your home and country, and defend their peace and contentment, too peaceful?! ”

Now the second question, brethren! The people of the Han Dynasty have worked so hard to support you, and when you go to the battlefield, you will not kill the enemy, and you will not defend the peaceful land of the Han people, and the people of the Han Dynasty will support you, what is the use? ”

"Brethren, remember this one thing, these two questions, remember your mission, remember who you fought for, and what you fought for, and you will always be invincible, and you will never be defeated by the enemy!"

"Brothers, please shout with me to defend your home and country! Protect the territory and the people! ”

"Defend the country! Protect the territory and the people! The honest soldiers specially selected by Tao Ying were very obedient, regardless of whether they understood the meaning of Tao Ying's words or not, they all raised the weapons and flags in their hands, and shouted rhythmically and neatly with Tao Ying, "Defend the family and defend the country!" Protect the territory and the people! Defend the country! Protect the territory and the people! Defend the country! Protect the territory and the people! ”

With this speech, Tao Ying finally reversed a little bit of his bad impression in Tao Ji and Lin Qing's minds, Tao Ji stood next to Tao Ying while raising his sword and shouting to protect the family and defend the country, and secretly said: "The second brother is quite reasonable, it is natural for soldiers to eat food, but why do the people want to support soldiers, few people have really thought about it seriously before." ”

"It's nice to say, but I don't know if I understand soldiers." Lin Qing, who was standing in the team of Tao Ying's personal soldiers, also muttered quietly - although Lin Qing repeatedly refused to serve as Tao Ying's personal soldier, but when he arrived at the barracks and saw that more than a dozen soldiers were squeezed into a grass room, Lin Qing, who was pale-faced, finally accepted Tao Ying's kindness, lived in the relatively loose Tao Ying room, and helplessly became Tao Ying's personal soldier.

"Okay, disbanded, the brothers have all gone to eat, today our team is newly formed, there is wine and meat, the brothers can eat with their bellies open, and when they are finished, they will go back to their rooms to rest! Tomorrow, you will start a new 'beautiful' life! Tao Ying shouted with a wicked smile on his face.

"Oh!" The poor nine hundred recruits had no idea that hell had gradually opened its doors to them, and they let out heartfelt cheers, thanked Tao Ying again and again, and then rushed to the room that was exuding the strong smell of wine and meat.

"Boys, wait." Looking at the crowd of recruits who dispersed with joy, Tao Ying had a worse smile on his face, turned around and was about to take Tao Ji and Lin Qing off the stage for dinner, when he suddenly saw a person walking up to the stage, but it was Tao Ying's cheap brother potter who was so honest that he couldn't beat a fart with three hammers. Tao Ying didn't dare to slack off, hurriedly stepped forward, bowed to the pottery merchant to the ground, and said respectfully: "Brother, the younger brother doesn't know that the elder brother has arrived, and he has missed the distance, and I hope that the elder brother will forgive his sins." ”

"Brother Xian, please get up quickly." Tao Shang picked up Tao Ying and said with a smile: "I heard that the virtuous brother has finally recruited full soldiers, and my father's condition has improved greatly in the past few days, so the foolish brother took the time to come over and have a look, and by the way, I congratulated the virtuous brother." ”

"Thank you, brother." Tao Ying hurriedly thanked him.

"My own brother, what's polite?" The potter smirked and said: "I heard the words of the virtuous brother just now, and I think what the virtuous brother said is too reasonable, what are the people supporting the soldiers for, just to let the soldiers protect their families and defend the country, and protect the territory and the people!" As long as the soldiers in the virtuous brother's team keep this in mind, I believe that they will be able to conquer everything and be invincible as the virtuous brother said! ”

"Brother has won the prize." Tao Ying said modestly: "These words are easy to say, but they are difficult to do, and I don't know how many hours it will take for the soldiers to really remember this." ”

The potter nodded, agreed with the brother's opinion again, and then the potter turned to Tao Ji again, asking the cousin to be good to assist the second brother, and do his best to help Tao Ying lead the army to govern the army, Tao Ji also honestly agreed, but the honest Tao Shang suddenly had a thought, and turned to Tao Ying and smiled: "Brother Xian, your army is under your direct command and control, and General Cao Bao's team is not under the command of each other, they are all called the Xuzhou Army of the Han Dynasty, it is inevitable that there will be some confusion, and the foolish brother secretly thinks that the army of the virtuous brother should be named separately in order to distinguish it." ”

"Thank you brother for your advice, my younger brother also has this intention, but I haven't thought of a good name for a while." Tao replied.

"Second brother, how about our army called Tiger Wolf Ride?" Tao Ji couldn't wait to suggest: "The most elite cavalry in Cao Ying's old thief army is called Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, and we will call it Tiger Wolf!" ”

"Not good." To Tao Ji's surprise, the first person to oppose was his most honest lobby brother potter, the potter shook his head and said: "Tigers, wolves, tigers and leopards, all birds and beasts, the second brother's team is a teacher of benevolence and righteousness, how can it be named after beasts?" ”

"The tiger wolf is as powerful as a tiger, like a wolf, not a beast." Taugi explained.

"It's still not good, the teacher of benevolence and righteousness, you can't name it after a beast." The big nerd potter still shook his head in disapproval.

"What does the name of the righteous division have to do with the name of the army?" Tao Ji said dissatisfiedly: "According to my brother's wishes, isn't our army only called the army of benevolent and righteous gentlemen?" ”

"Gentlemen of Benevolence?" The pottery merchant's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly turned to Tao Ying and said, "Brother Xian, how about naming your army the Junzi Army?" The virtuous brother is a benevolent and filial person, frank and honest, trustworthy and trustworthy, brave and fearless, and a gentleman in the military, which is in line with the virtuous brother's personality, which could not be more appropriate. ”

"Gentlemen?" Tao Ji screamed like a pig, "Big brother, do you really know how to choose a name, Junzi Junjun?" It's up to you to think of such an ugly name! ”

"Gentlemen?" Tao Ying was a little tempted - because of this name, it was too much for Tao Ying's appetite. But Tao Ying still had a layer of consideration, and hesitated: "It's just too awkward, Junzi Army, not loud and smooth enough." ”

"The two virtuous brothers are wrong." The potter shook his head and said in a surprising voice: "Have you forgotten that the history books record that more than five hundred years ago, there was also a gentleman's army, and it was the strongest army at that time. ”

"There was an army of gentlemen more than 500 years ago?" Tao Ying's eyes widened, it was the first time he had heard of this.

"Not bad." The potter nodded, proudly playing with the bookbag and said: "More than five hundred years ago, the most elite person under the command of King Goujian of Yue was named after the gentleman. The Wu language chapter of the book "Chinese" contains: The king of Yue took 6,000 of his private soldiers as the Chinese army. Sima Zichang commented: A private gentleman, the king is close to those who have aspirations, Wu Xianliang, and the so-called scholar of Qi. Gou Jian tried his courage, worked hard, and finally destroyed Wu in shame, and his main soldiers were the Junzi Army! ”

"Good!" Tao Ying was overjoyed, slapped his thigh and shouted: "Thank you brother for the name, this name is too much for the appetite of the younger brother, the younger brother's team, from now on, will be called the Junzi Army!" ”

"In this way, it's not bad to call it the Gentleman's Army." Tao Ji rarely agreed with Tao Ying once, pinched his smooth chin and said: "Yue Wang Goujian is lying down and tasting courage, and we are ashamed of the Junzi Army, and our Xuzhou Army is also named after the Junzi Army, which has the meaning of not forgetting the previous shame and vowing to avenge the old revenge." ”

"That's it." Tao Yingxi smiled and instructed Tao Ji: "Third brother, order someone to make three green tooth flags overnight, one handsome flag with the two big characters 'gentleman' written on it, and two more sub-flags." ”

"What's written on the sub-flag?" Tao Ji suggested: "The younger brother suggests, how about writing the two lines of lying on the salary and tasting courage and making great efforts? ”

"No!" Tao Ying shook his head and said with a smile: "One side of the flag is written with the words 'benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith', and the other side is written with the words 'gentleness, courtesy, frugality'. ”

"Benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith? Gentle and frugal? Tao Ji almost screamed like a pig again, and exclaimed: "Second brother, are you sure you want to fight these two flags?" Confirm that let our army fly these two flags? ”

"Wonderful!" The potter applauded and said sincerely: "My brother is really a humble gentleman, benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and faith, gentleness, courtesy, and frugality, all of which are the words of a saint and our code of conduct!" ”

"Not bad!" Tao Ying laughed and said: "I want Junzijun to be like me, benevolence, loyalty, courtesy, wisdom, and integrity!" Gentleness, kindness, respect, frugality, forbearance! Hold high the banner of benevolence and righteousness, and sweep the invincible opponent of the world! ”

The potter applauded desperately, feeling that the second brother's words were too appetizing to him, and he congratulated him from the bottom of his heart: "The virtuous brother takes benevolence and righteousness as the banner and the love as the banner, and I believe that the virtuous brother and the virtuous brother's gentleman's army will definitely have a bright future!" ”

"It's a bright future, right?" Tao Ji and Lin Qing, who was eavesdropping on the side, lamented in their hearts, "These two flags are out, I believe that the Junzi Army will soon become the laughing stock of the princes of the world." ”

"I'd better hurry up and find a way to return to General Cao Bao's command, follow the second brother, my future is completely bright!" Tao Ji cried and thought in his heart, "Benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith? Gentle and frugal? Let the army that went into battle to kill the enemy play such a banner, and it is really thanks to my two nerdy brothers who can think of it! ”

"Forget it, let's go, don't waste time on this nerd." Lin Qing also sighed in his heart: "Benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith? Gentle and frugal? When such a battle flag arrives on the battlefield, it is definitely impossible to scare the enemy, and it is very possible to laugh ten or eight enemies to death. ”

So, after listening to the advice of the honest brother Tao Shang, the first army personally formed by our Deputy Director Tao finally had an extremely loud and elegant name - the Gentleman's Army!

There is also a military spirit and slogan - benevolence, loyalty, courtesy, wisdom, and integrity! Gentleness, kindness, respect, frugality, forbearance! Abbreviated as: benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and faith, gentleness, courtesy, and frugality!

Of course, no one knows whether the name of Deputy Director Tao's team is wrong and whether the slogan is wrong. But Deputy Director Tao firmly believes that his military name and slogan are not wrong! Whether you believe it or not, Deputy Director Tao himself believes it anyway.
