Chapter 148: Picking Troops
In the eighth year of Zhenghe, after the Tianning Festival, a knowledgeable monk said to Zhao Tajin, "Historical Records" recorded that the Yellow Emperor in ancient times had a year to get Baoding and Shence, and the winter solstice of that year happened to be at sunrise on the first day of November. Later, the winter solstice of the fifth year of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is also the sunrise festival on the first day of November, but the dry branch is Xinsi, although it is a little different from the winter solstice of the Yellow Emperor's Ji Youshuo Dan, but the Emperor Xiaowu still personally worshiped Mount Tai on the day of the winter solstice. Look at us again, this year's winter solstice is the sunrise on the first day of November, and the stem branch is actually Jiyou, which is exactly the same as the time of the Yellow Emperor.
Sunrise is the beginning of a day, the first day of the new year is the beginning of a month, and the winter solstice is the beginning of a year. Moreover, when Taizong was the emperor for the twentieth year, he granted amnesty to the world to celebrate, and now His Majesty has also been the Son of Heaven for nineteen years, and next year will be twenty years? Isn't it also a change to amnesty celebration celebration? Zhao Ji was overjoyed after hearing this, such a good lip gloss, of course you have to celebrate, what are you waiting for next year, on the first day of November this year, change the yuan and re-and, this year is the first year of re-harmony! What is the solution of heavy harmony? And and also.
On the tenth day of October, Zhao Ta presided over XXXXXXX, and received XXX in a few days, although it was useless to know that XX was useless for a few days, but XX was a major event after all, so he hurriedly wrote a XX 500 miles to send it to XX, and then conveyed XX's will to arrange XX announcements at all levels to the whole road. He also sent several XX in a row, urging the commanders of XXXX and Fan soldiers in Hedong to carry out winter training, and sent people to each general XXXX, XXXX, make up XXX, and complete XX armor, and XX grain and grass XX to the cities along the border.
Zhao Ta ran around, and after working hard to solve a series of problems in front of him, he rushed back to Jiugongzhai. Xiao Yu insisted on resigning from his position, but Zhao Ta kept it, and he insisted on resigning. Seeing that he had made up his mind, Zhao Ta discussed it with everyone and gave Xiao Yu two choices: one was to serve as a deputy in the military department and be an assistant to Zhao Ren; The other is to replace Zhao Lian and return to Xiangyi to preside over the training and military work there, and with his experience in leading troops in the past two years, he is enough to be competent. Xiao Yu thought about it for two days and decided to train in Xiangyi, so Zhao Ta arranged for Zhao Yan to take over, and selected more than a dozen experienced sergeants from the army to return to Xiangyi with him, and he also temporarily settled down in Jiugongzhai.
When the camp was designed, it was taken into account that the prince would come often, so he specially built a small courtyard house for him, and the five main rooms were his bedroom, study, living room and guard room; The side rooms on both sides are the kitchen and the guards' housing, and there are several guardhouses on the left and right of the door, and Wu Song and Lu Xiaoyao occupy one by themselves. The whole courtyard was square, and there were only more than 20 of his personal guards living there, which did not seem crowded.
The expanded guard battalion was placed around the small courtyard, and they were in charge of the perimeter guards, and now Zhao Xin was in charge of managing it for the time being. Although defending the absolute safety of the chief is the first priority, the guard unit must also have a certain amount of special operations capability to prevent assassinations, kidnappings, and other decapitation operations against commanders in wartime, and at the same time undertake the duty of carrying out secret missions.
Zhao planned to organize the guard battalion into five squadrons, one internal guard squadron, composed of personal guards, cooks, doctors, grooms, coachmen, and handymen; three field squadrons, responsible for perimeter guards; a logistics support squadron responsible for the maintenance and support of weapons and equipment of the Guards and horses, vehicles, etc.; In addition, some elites are selected to form a special combat team to carry out secret missions. In the past, Zhao Ta of the Guards was organized and trained in the manner of special operations forces, but this time it was strictly an expansion, and he planned to expand the scope of selection to the entire pro-army.
......
After Zhao Tan got up, he walked to the camp of the Xunshi Camp alone, the soldiers had already begun to exercise, shouting 'one, two, three, four' to run, and there were more than a dozen stakes hanging a few people under the flagpole, he walked over curiously. …,
"Brother, what's going on?" Zhao Ta was wearing the same military uniform as a recruit, and there was no armband on his arm, because no one knew what kind of thing to hang for the prince, so he wore a 'white robe', he walked up to a big man with grinning teeth and asked.
"What's the matter, you're blind? I just got twenty lashes from the law enforcement team, and my grandfather hurts terribly! "That person has just been beaten, how can he be happy, and he doesn't know the famous prince in front of him, of course he doesn't have a good face for Zhao Tan.
"Why did they beat you?" Zhao Ta didn't think it was a pestle, and asked with a smile.
"You tickle me first, and I'll tell you!" The man craned his neck and said with a crooked face.
Zhao Ta nodded and stretched out his hand to scratch his face twice, but the man grinned and said, "Hehe, why do you want to tell you!" ”
"Damn, you play me, Lao Tzu will serve you well!" Zhao Ta is not a good thing, he raised his hand and plucked a hair from the man's head, and poked it on his nose, ears, and eyes, making the kid 'happy', shaking his head, dodging left and right, glaring at Zhao Ta angrily, scolding, but he didn't beg for mercy, looking at his big smile, if he wasn't tied, he would have to eat Zhao Ta!
"It's stinky and hard, you kid deserves to be hung here as bacon!" Tossed him for a long time, the kid just didn't spit out, Zhao Ta had no way, and saw the people from the law enforcement team coming over here, so he scolded and slipped away, if Zhao Yi's gang saw it, they would have to be embarrassed, I don't know how to deal with this unobtrusive prince.
The next day, Zhao Ta passed by, this kid hung there again, yesterday's sitcom was staged again, and the prince kindly scratched the itch for him - but on his swollen buttocks... It's strange to say, the two meet here every day, and they come and go and have feelings.
"Zhang Kui, what's itching again today?" Zhao Ta circled around him, "Tsk, this time it must be an itch in my back, look at the law enforcement team's little whip is so beautiful, red but not swollen, it hurts and doesn't see blood!" He reached out and picked up his clothes and touched them.
"It hurts, don't touch it!" Zhang Kui twisted his body and shouted with a white face.
"I know that it hurts, and I make mistakes every day!" Zhao Ta put down his clothes and said.
"Zhao Er, you don't know what the hell you do, there are too many rules in this ghost place, and you can't blame me for some things!" Zhang Kui grinned and said, "I have to wash my feet when I sleep, I have to sing when I eat, and when I run in the morning, I run a little faster, and I am whipped; I was confused for a while while standing guard, and was beaten with thirty sticks; And the cavalry formation, you have to run in a line, it's useless on the battlefield, I argued with the captain for a few words, and I was beaten again, you say I don't complain! ”
"How fast did you run and they beat you?" Zhao asked.
"It's not fast, I'm the vanguard, I'm half a lap faster than them, and they can blame me if they run slowly. Besides, even if I fall asleep and a bird flies thirty paces away, I can know the way. What they practice is also called riding, I dare to rush into battle when I ride alone, can I use it to rush in line! ”
"Hehe, you don't complain about your beating, and you don't beat anyone for violating military discipline!" Zhao Ta smiled, "Alas, then why don't you run, I see that you have also practiced, and it is not difficult to run, why don't I help you?" He said enthusiastically.
"Zhao Er, I'm not afraid of your jokes, although there are more rules in this place, let me run, I'm really reluctant!" Zhang Kui whispered.
"Oh?! How can you say this, if you are beaten, you will still be emotional, and if you don't get beaten for a day, your skin will be itchy? This time it was Zhao Ta's turn to be strange and asked in surprise.
"You've only been tickling for a day without being beaten!" Zhang Kui glanced at him and said, "I have wanted to be a soldier since I was a child, but I don't look down on those forbidden troops who know how to eat, drink and have fun, they also look down on us Fanhu, thinking that the Xiangyi army is the prince of Yan's army, and I also heard that they are 3,000 and 30,000 things, so I came to try, I didn't expect this to be really good, eat well, dress well, and treat the Fan Han equally, if you don't get beaten, it's better, after this paragraph, when you go to the battlefield, they will know that I am powerful, and when you have military exploits, you won't be beaten, so I won't run now!" Zhang Kui squeezed his eyes and said proudly. …,
Zhao Ta nodded, he kind of understood, this kid is a guy who refuses to keep to himself, has excess energy, and likes to find something to do, "It's not easy not to be beaten, the prince's guards never beat people, or you go there, then it's recruiting!" He whispered in Zhang Kui's ear.
"Cut, the guards are the pro-army of the prince's pro-army, our most powerful people are there, I heard that you can't get in without real skills, and besides, as long as they are from Xiangyi, you can tease me!" Zhang Kui said with a sneer.
"I'm still the person next to the prince, as long as I tell the prince, there is nothing that can't be done, and besides, the guards are not all from Xiangyi, and the people there are all recruited by the prince from everywhere, but they live on the territory of the Xiangyi Palace, it's not that you are too timid to go, right?" Zhao Tan squinted his eyes and said with a sneer.
"I don't believe it, you see our commander is here, if you tell him it, I'll go!" Zhang Kui said to a few people who came over there.
"Hmph, you can look at it, you will regret it when the time comes, don't blame me for fixing you!" Zhao Ta snorted coldly and said, seeing Zhang Kui nodding, he shouted at those people: "Zhang Ting, come here, I took this person away, and you will send someone to send his things to the guards later!" ”
"Okay, take him away!" Zhang Ting agreed without even fighting, but Zhang Kui was a little dumbfounded, this kid in front of him seemed to be really a person around the prince, and he called the commander by his name, and what was even more strange was that in their eyes, the commander immediately agreed, and he didn't even ask anything for him.
