Early morning.

Zhang Shuang got up from the bed, and after washing up, a maid walked in from outside holding millet porridge. said that it was the porridge made by Cai Yan himself.

"Every day, whoever takes the virtuous sister is a blessing."

Zhang Shuang sighed with emotion and slowly devoured the millet porridge.

Then I went out for a walk, which was followed by horseback riding.

Since the outbreak of the Yellow Turban Uprising, Zhang Shuang has developed these habits and made full preparations for leading troops to the battlefield. Don't plan to charge, always ready to run away and save your life.

"Kill!"

Outside the manor, Dian Wei took more than a dozen entourages to practice fighting.

"Da Da Da!"

I saw many scarecrows standing on the empty ground. Dian Wei took the lead and galloped past. When he lifted the double halberd, he cut down several scarecrows.

The rest of them are also one by one, very accurate.

"Kill, kill, kill!" Riding a roundabout, another slashing and slashing. Dian Wei's morale was high.

"The kid was excited. But it's no wonder that after following me for so long, I have only experienced a few defeats of bandits. This is the first time that it has officially entered the battlefield. Zhang Shuang smiled in his heart.

"Captain!" When Dian Wei saw Zhang Shuang, he immediately rode his horse and saluted.

"Captain's ??!" This title is fresh, Zhang Shuang was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "You kid will beat snakes and sticks, and you will start calling me an official." ”

"That's exciting."

Dian Wei said with a smile.

"Haha!" Zhang Shuang burst out laughing.

"Da Da Da!"

At that moment, the sound of horses' hooves sounded. Immediately afterwards, a guy who looked like a herald appeared in front of Zhang Shuang and others.

"But Captain Guoyi?" The people who came turned over and dismounted, and greeted the Tao.

"It's me." Zhang Shuang nodded.

"I was ordered by the Great General to bring a seal letter, a paperwork. He also reported to the lord that 800 elite soldiers were already on the way, and the grain, grass and baggage were also ready. The army will depart in three days, and the general will order you to familiarize yourself with military affairs within these three days. ”

Someone to report.

"Smack!" Dian Wei turned over and dismounted, and took the seal letter and document from the hand. Zhang Shuang smiled: "It's hard work, you can go to the manor to have a cup of tea!" ”

"Thank you, sir." The person who came thanked him and went down.

"Your Excellency." Dian Wei handed the letter and document to Zhang Shuang. Zhang Shuang waved his hand and said with a smile: "These are just fictitious things, the key is to be an elite soldier." ”

Zhang Shuang was very much looking forward to the soldiers and horses he led for the first time.

…………………

"This is the ???! of elite soldiers" Zhang Shuang's brows furrowed, and there was a rare flickering cold glint in his eyes.

"Damn, the five battalions of the Northern Army are elite soldiers and horses in the world, and there are many elite soldiers. But to your lords, such soldiers and horses. He Jin's heart is known to passers-by. ”

Dian Wei clenched his fists, extremely angry.

I saw hundreds of people standing in front of the two. There is no shortage of armor and weapons, and there is a lot of food and grass behind him. That is, people are old, weak, sick and disabled.

Dian Wei has a majestic figure and a fierce face. In a fit of rage, the momentum is very.

Eight hundred old, weak, sick and disabled people were all frightened and cowardly.

Dian Wei's eyes widened, and he was even more angry.

"He Jin has dry bones in the mound, and sooner or later there will be a time for him to cry. Don't worry about him now, don't worry about him. Zhang Shuang took a deep breath before calming down the anger in his heart.

After calming down, Zhang Shuang began to think about a way out.

He carries a high position, and he has almost no connections in the court, and wrestling with him is self-inflicted.

Ten permanent attendants.

Soon, Zhang Shuang remembered Zhang Rang, but vetoed it again. Because he can see that Zhang Rang contacted him only because of his prospects, and now he is just a tricky adviser, who has just fought against the Yellow Turban, and his achievements are not successful, in Zhang Rang's eyes, I am afraid that he is just a small seedling.

Whether it will help or not is still unknown.

If you don't help, you're humiliating.

"The only way now is for us to tide over the difficulties. Let's start by training this team. Zhang Shuang took a deep breath and said.

"How do you train this kind of soldier and horse? And it's only been three days. Dian Wei said hatefully.

"Start with the elimination of the old and the young, and then make a rapid march, a march. Ten miles of rapid march, a hundred miles of marching. Those who are qualified stay, and those who are not qualified are repatriated to the Northern Army. ”

Zhang Shuang said.

"After some screening, how many of the eight hundred people are left?" Dian Wei's eyes widened.

"Leave it to fate."

Zhang Shuang sighed.

"Ahh Dian Wei roared angrily and went down to do something.

Zhang Shuang left Dian Wei to eliminate the old and weak, and he went back to Cai Yuan.

Eliminating the old and weak and storing the elite is the practice of teaching people in general military books. But Zhang Shuang knew at a glance that these 800 weak brigades were malnourished, even if they were selected elites, they were also weak brigades.

Therefore, the next thing Zhang Shuang has to do is to give these weak brigades enough food and drink and replenish nutrition.

"Luckily, I read a lot. I know that ancient generals often spent their own property and raised soldiers. When I came to Luoyang this time, I brought some gold. Otherwise, it will be difficult for a good woman to cook without rice. He went in and out of this trick for me, and I was really helpless. ”

After a while, Zhang Shuang returned to Cai Yuan.

In the hall, Zhang Shuang met Cai Yong and Cai Yan. Cai Yong's complexion is okay, but Cai Yan seems to be a little red-eyed and seems to have cried? Zhang Shuang didn't care, so he said to Cai Yong: "Sir, I have encountered trouble, and I ask Mr. for help." ”

"Trouble?" Cai Yong was surprised and asked.

So, Zhang Shuang told him about He Jin.

"Butcher, when the national disaster is at the head, he still plays these small tricks." Cai Yong was furious, and even his body trembled.

"It's not helpful to talk about it. It's better to find a way to deal with it. Zhang Shuang said.

"How?" Cai Yong asked.

"This time I came to Luoyang with enough money, please send a servant to Luoyang to buy pigs, the more the better." Zhang Shuang said.

"Okay." Cai Yong hurriedly agreed and went down to arrange it in person.

After asking Cai Yong for help, Zhang Shuang planned to go down and eliminate the old and weak with Dian Wei. was pulled by Cai Yan's sleeve.

"Brother Xian, since He Jin looks down on Brother Xian, he has caused trouble for Brother Xian. It's better for a virtuous brother to resign and live in seclusion in the mountains. Cai Yan's eyes were slightly red, and he said softly.

"As a brother, I am young and strong. With ambition in mind, worship the marquis. Now that the world is in turmoil, it is time for my brother to strive upward. How can you hold back? ”

Zhang Shuang shook his head, determined.

"However, the battlefield is sinister, if Brother Xian has a case, then I, then I!" Cai Yan's eyes were even redder, tears fell like pearls, and he choked up.

As soon as she was excited, she threw herself into Zhang Shuang's arms and cried loudly.

"The battlefield is treacherous, and when I heard that Brother Xian was going to lead the troops to the battle, I almost fainted. As soon as Brother Xian leaves, how can I sleep? ”

Zhang Shuang is not a person who doesn't understand the relationship between men and women, but the two met, Cai Yan was five years old, and he was ten years old. All along, when Cai Yan's sister came to see.

If you don't think about it, you naturally can't detect Cai Yan's thoughts.

At this moment, Cai Yan cried loudly. The sentiment is touching, Zhang Shuang thought about it again, Cai Yan suddenly became stupid, and often held simple articles to ask for advice to himself, and his mind suddenly became clear.

It was very unexpected, but not disgusted.

"The battlefield is treacherous, but I'll save my life. You also know that I am the most clever brother, and if the situation is not right, I can run away immediately. Feel relieved. Zhang Shuang smiled and patted Cai Yan's back and comforted him softly.

"Running away as a general will be dealt with by military law." Cai Yan was amused and burst into tears and smiled.

"It's a big deal to go incognito and go to the mountains to live in seclusion." Zhang Shuang said with a smile.

"I would like to work with Brother Xian, three acres of thin fields, two tiled houses, it's good. Reading in my spare time, weaving cloth when I am busy. Cai Yan's eyes showed a look of hope, very longing.

"Hahaha!"

Zhang Shuang laughed.

Sensing Cai Yan's feelings was purely accidental. Ten years of planning is the leap of the dragon and the tiger. Zhang Shuang's mind was extremely firm, and after comforting Cai Yan, he went to the army again.

When he went out, Zhang Shuang sighed slightly.

"In this life, I will either die on the battlefield or run rampant in the world. Sister Xian, you live with me, either as a widow, or as a widow, or enjoy the scenery of the world. The dream of living in seclusion is difficult. ”

Packing up his mood, Zhang Shuang returned to the outside of the manor.

At this point, the team split into two teams. Zhang Shuang stepped forward and asked Dian Wei, "How is it?" ”

"I picked it again, but it was too old and too young to be eliminated. Six hundred people remained. Dian Wei said helplessly.

"Okay, next is the march and the rush march." Zhang Shuang nodded.

Soon after, Zhang Shuang and Dian Wei commanded the remaining 600 people. The march began.

A rapid march is a small run.

The battlefield is changing rapidly, and the general gives an order, and the pawn runs on his legs. The speed may be related to the change of the tide of battle.

Needless to say, the march is a thousand miles away, all relying on a pair of legs.

After a toss, the day turned into night.

One by one, the soldiers were panting like oxen, slumped on the ground, unable to move.

"The mud can't hold up to the wall." Dian Wei looked at the bear-like appearance of the soldiers, and he was angry.

"Even the mud has to be lifted up." Zhang Shuang said. After a pause, Zhang Shuang instructed: "Go count the number of people and see how many people there are." In addition, send someone to send the eliminated people back to the Northern Army. ”

"No." Dian Wei promised and went to work.

Soon after, the count was completed.

"Lord Captain, there are four hundred and thirty-one soldiers."

Dian Weiyu reported.

"Okay." Zhang Shuang nodded and walked to the front of the four hundred and thirty-one soldiers. After resting, the soldiers regained some strength, but their momentum was still weak.

"Generally, generals lead soldiers, and they pay attention to loving soldiers like sons. But with me, you are not imagining. I have only one rule, let you go east, and you will go east. To the west, to the west. Obedient soldiers, I will kill pigs and sheep and reward them. Disobedient soldiers, one word, chop! ”

Zhang Shuang said lightly.

The sound is soft, but the weight is not light.

The face is expressionless, and it is even more terrifying.

"Undoubtedly!"

There was a commotion among the soldiers, and an unquestionable feeling surged in their hearts.

Prestige.

With a simple sentence, Zhang Shuang established his own prestige.
