Jeon Dashan hurriedly finished a meal that I didn't know if it was breakfast or dinner. These days, the life and training of soldiers is completely turned upside down. I heard the captain say: There may be a night march and night combat training soon, and after this night training, some outstanding soldiers will be drawn from the soldiers and promoted to deputy squad leaders. So these days, it's all about resting during the day and training at night.

All the soldiers knew that this was a good opportunity. As long as you become the deputy squad leader, you are eligible to be transferred to the personal team of the garrison adult. And as long as you train in the personal team of the garrison for one year, you can become the vice captain of the 100-person team after being released. This is a military attaché, and for a soldier, it is a complete step to the sky.

Therefore, the whole mountain is ready to check the wheels of the two carts of his squad during the period of rest after dinner, so as to ensure that there are no problems with the carts during the night march.

The heart of the whole mountain is not black, and it is still too far away to become the personal soldier of the garrison, but as long as he becomes the deputy squad leader, he can get the full military salary. In the past few days, Quan Dashan's mother also told Quan Dashan about a family matter, which made Quan Dashan have a goal to strive for. And seeing his brother-in-law Yang Qi's face glowing red every day, Quan Dashan's heart has been itching.

Whoever comes to mind appears. Just when Quan Dashan was preparing the tools to check the wheels, his brother-in-law Yang Wu sneakily showed his head at the door.

As soon as Quan Dashan saw Yang Qi, he angrily took the tools out of the house and walked towards the place where the car was parked. And Yang Qi hurriedly followed behind, shouting: "Brother Dashan, wait for me!" ”

Although Quan Dashan didn't look back, he still slowed down and let Yang Wu run to his side. Quan Dashan asked: "You kid don't stay in your own team well, what are you looking for me all day long?" ”

"Brother Dashan, I really have something to ask you for help this time."

"What can you do kid? Hurry up! I've got something to do. ”

"This ...... This...... I just want to ask Brother Dashan to borrow some silver. ”

When Quan Dashan heard this, he stopped and asked, "What's the matter?" Why is your money used up so quickly? If my sister marries you, our family can confiscate any bride price. And the lord of the garrison was gracious, and gave you twenty taels of silver. Where did you both spend your money? ”

"It's really not a mess. It's just that my brother has just decided on a family business, and he is ready to do things. But the bride price is a little less. ”

"But don't you still have those twenty taels? Can't you finish this? ”

"Hey, hey! Isn't it a little sister! ”

"Huh!?" Quan Dashan's mouth opened wide all of a sudden, and then he was also happy, and then he walked to the cart and said, "I didn't expect you kid to be very capable!" All right! When I get back, I'll tell my mother, I'll lend you some money first. But two or three taels at most. ”

Yang Qi was also very happy to see that Quan Dashan agreed to borrow silver. He knew that there was indeed not much silver in the whole Dashan family, and the silver of these two or three taels was already most of the family property of the whole Dashan family.

When they arrived at the cart, Quan Dashan took the tools to check the wheels, and Yang Qi chatted with Quan Dashan: "Brother Dashan, there is something wrong with the situation these days. We're all day and night upside down. And in the past, there were at most one or two hundred-person teams in night training, but now all except those in the horse team have to participate in night training, is there something going on? ”

Quan Dashan glanced at Yang Qi and said: "It's useless for you kid to think about it, what I know, you kid also knows." I don't know anything better than you. But we are soldiers, and we will do whatever the adults say. But you'll have to work hard for this night training, and you might have a good chance. ”

"I know. Our squad also said that the performance haode can be promoted to the deputy squad. But in our firecrackle squad, I'm not at the top of the rankings. It's the big mountain brother who is at the top of your spear team. ”

"Needless to say, they all singled me out to train axes and guns." Quan Dashan showed off a little proudly, "You kid also have to work harder, and don't dangle it every day." ”

Yang Qi opened his mouth and wanted to refute, but he felt that there was nothing to say, so he still kept his mouth shut. Quan Dashan sighed secretly in his heart, he knew that Yang Qi had been playing with his little sister in his spare time before, so he had delayed some training. But now that the little sister has children, then Yang Qi should also take care of her heart and run for a future.

At this time, the two suddenly heard the whistle of the assembly. So the two of them immediately ran towards the meeting place. After the formation was completed, Quan Dashan saw that the general flag of his hundred-man team had come to the front of the queue.

The general banner looked around at the soldiers of his hundred-man team, and then said with a full heart: "Just now I received an order from Lord Zhou's deputy Qianhu, our hundred-man team will be the vanguard and set off to Nanyang Mansion to suppress bandits. ”

The sudden order stunned all the soldiers. Although those soldiers did not dare to shout loudly in the queue, the low shouts of so many people still caused a commotion. The general flag looked around at the soldiers again, and all the soldiers immediately shut their mouths, and the queue fell silent again.

"The destination of this crackdown is Nanyang Province, and we will march for five days and nights to capture another village and hold it. But since it was a battle, all the brothers had to be prepared for casualties. But fear not, most of our brothers have had their experience of banditry. As long as you show the level of your usual training, this battle against bandits will not be too troublesome. ”

"Also, if the garrison is gracious, as long as the brothers who have made meritorious contributions in battle, they will be rewarded, and the reward will at least be to raise the level of the brothers. So you have to remember how you train in normal times and how you need to do it now. Don't panic, you'll die. ”

In addition, after each day's march, each squad leader had to settle his brothers, and every brother had to wash his feet. Each squad leader should check the feet of his brothers in the squad when washing their feet, and they must pick out those with foot bubbles. ”

"Alright, now let's take your team as a group and give you an hour to prepare. Find some brothers who can write and leave letters to their families, and prepare armor and weapons to place on their squad's carts. Then they all gathered next to the cart of their own team, and when the time came, they were ordered to set off. Do you understand? Disbanded if you understand it! ”

At this time, Quan Dashan was still carefully pondering the words of Lord Zongqi, and he realized that if he made military achievements in this battle, then the reward he received would definitely allow him to pay a dowry. Because the silver lent to Yang Qi just now has already made the bride price of the whole mountain a little insufficient.

Quan Dashan looked at Yang Qi at the back of the queue again, thinking of the child in his sister's womb, and secretly determined in his heart that he must protect his brother-in-law.

For the sake of the secrecy of this dispatch, Wu Shigong decided to march his army and march all at night. And the ability to keep the army on night marches is also thanks to Wu Shigong's long-term training of his army for emergency night gatherings and night marches.

The five centennial teams of the vanguard set off first under the leadership of General Hefei. And in this detachment, there were also ten cavalrymen sent by the horse team to help reconnoiter and lead the way. And the daily march of this army begins after the sun sets and ends before the sun rises. And throughout the day, I will sleep and rest.

Wu Shigong's preparations were very thorough. After the end of the first two night marches, they all settled in the Zhuangzi established after Wu Shigong Tuntian. And in Zhuangzi, hot water and food were prepared for the vanguard army.

In the last two days, the camp was also carefully selected in a relatively remote place, where Haode had already arranged for manpower to bring food and drink to the army.

However, because it was a daytime camp, the vanguard army still sent some soldiers around to prevent anyone from detecting the news. As soon as they saw someone spotting them, they would immediately detain them until the vanguard army had set out again, and then release them.

After four days of night marching, the vanguard army had entered Nanyang Province, and it was only forty miles away from Dahuai Village in the middle of the mountainous area.

And then there was Zuihou's night march for a day. In this night march, the vanguard army will arrive at the village of Dahuai in the early hours of the morning and occupy it, and then guard against the possible counterattack of the rebellious miners until the arrival of the main force of the Zhou Patrol.
