Chapter 89: The Old, the Weak, the Sick and the Disabled
Sword Gate.
As the second line of defense of the Great Xia Kingdom, the strategic location of the Sword Gate is also very important.
This time, the martial arts level of the outer region was broken, and the sword gate became a key level to resist the Kuroshio.
The Governor of the Great Xia Kingdom said: Jianmen is the foothold for the country to recover the lost territory in the foreign land!
This shows how important the strategic location of Jianmen Pass is.
At this moment, on the street of Jianmen, there were patrol soldiers in groups of three and five, Zhang Yu and others got off the car outside the city and walked to the headquarters of the United Army of the Great Xia Kingdom, they had experienced nineteen checks!
"If they can use this strength on the Wuguan side, it is estimated that the Wuguan will not be able to break it."
Zhang Yu sighed.
In the headquarters, Zhang Yu, as the newly appointed team leader, met with the commander of the United Army alone with the letter of appointment.
I don't remember the name of the commander of the combined army, Zhang Yu, I only know that his surname is Guan, and I heard Bi Yuntao say that he is an old man who can't be older anymore, and he wears a pair of reading glasses all year round.
In Bi Yuntao's words, that old guy is dizzy, and he may drive the crane west at any time, let him be the commander, it is better to pull a dog on the street!
When Zhang Yu came, Guan Lao was dozing off on the table.
Zhang Yu lay on his ear and screamed seven or eight times, and then he sat up in a daze.
"What's wrong? Is the Kuroshio coming? Oh no, so what do you have to do with me? ”
Guan Lao pushed his glasses, and even had a big snot bubble.
Zhang Yu couldn't help but sigh: "Commander Guan, I especially worship you!" The admiration for you is like a surging river, and like the Yellow River flooding out of control...... Can you tell me how you got to the position of commander of the Combine Forces? ”
"Oh, well, hehe, I'm the elder brother's cousin."
Guan Lao said.
Zhang Yu couldn't help but faint.
It's all about time, the black tide has entered the martial arts! Seven foreign provinces have already been occupied, how can they still have the heart to engage in cronyism.
Let's take a look at this old man, Zhang Yu really doesn't despise the old man, the key is that the old man looks like he is in his eighties, he even has to be specially supported to go to the toilet, his teeth are all gone, and it is hard to eat a cucumber, how can he lead the troops to fight?
This also condensed the strength of the national gladiatorial arena and reorganized it into a full-fledged army?
Don't end up dying without knowing how to die!
"You came to me, what's the matter?"
Guan Lao finally sobered up a little and asked Zhang Yu like this.
Zhang Yu said respectfully: "My lord, I am the team leader of the Great Xia United Army, the first division, and the first team appointed by the state, and I hereby come to report to you. ”
"Oh, that's it, you wait a minute, I'll look for your information."
Guan Lao put on his reading glasses and struggled to rummage through a thick stack of materials.
This search lasted for several hours, until night fell, Guan Lao laboriously found Zhang Yu's information from a folder, and Zhang Yu hurriedly handed over his letter of appointment when he saw this.
Next, signing, sealing, and the appointment is complete.
"Comrade Xiao Zhang, I wish you a successful start to the first team." Guan Lao stretched out his hand and smiled.
"Of course!"
Zhang Yu shook hands with him, but he was thinking in his heart, provided that you don't fall asleep while commanding!
……
With the stamped letter of appointment, Zhang Yu came to the Jianmen garrison camp to take office.
Here, he was warmly received by the staff concerned.
"Hello, team leader, as the team leader of the first team of the first division of the Great Xia United Army, you have the qualifications to give priority to selecting army members, please follow me."
A polite young man led the way for Zhang Yu in front.
Zhang Yu followed and asked, "What, didn't you say that the Great Xia United Army is all from various gladiatorial arenas?" Why do you have to pick and choose? ”
"My lord, you are talking about the gladiators in the active gladiatorial arena, the gladiators summoned by the state this time are not only active, but also retired, and the former gladiators who enjoy the treatment of national citizenship are also being recruited." The young man explained carefully.
"Retired?"
For some reason, when Zhang Yu heard these words, he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, and always felt that something bad would happen.
"Since he is a retired gladiator, his strength must not be weak, right?"
"Your Excellency, rest assured, these retired gladiators were called up as early as the day after the battle, and during this period of time, under the call of the headquarters, they insisted on training and militarized management every day. Everyone is full of energy and confidence, waiting for the arrival of adults all the time, just need an order, and they will immediately rush to the battlefield for the country, at the cost of their lives! ”
"Okay, okay, so in addition to retired gladiators, are there any other sources of replenishment?"
"Of course! Under the leadership of Commander Guan, we have recruited gladiators from all provinces across the country, with the aim of enriching the strength of all strata of the army and giving the officers the greatest and strongest support. ”
"In that case, let's go and have a look!"
Zhang Yu couldn't wait.
……
on the training ground.
Zhang Yu was stunned.
"Why are there so many disabled people who lack arms and legs? Look at that, it's in a wheelchair! ”
The young man explained: "Oh, Brother Liu is disabled, although he has lost his legs, he is always concerned about the safety of the country, and after the call-up order was issued, he was almost the first batch of people to sign up for the army!" Don't underestimate Brother Liu, although he has no legs, he used to be a powerful general in the D area of the gladiatorial arena, and it took three years to practice a trick in the gladiatorial arena - shadowless legs! He never dreamed of going to the front line to kill the enemy! ”
Zhang Yu was dizzy in front of his eyes.
The three-rank gladiators in Area D also dare to be called a fierce general?
Then again, what the hell is a legless man who is good at shadowless feet, hey!
Zhang Yu: "Why are there still old men with lost teeth queuing?" Look at that, he walks tremblingly, and he is estimated to be older than Commander Guan! He needs help to walk - no, how did he lie on the ground! ”
"Oh, Zhao Lao's high blood pressure may have been committed, let him lie down for a while and it will be fine, adults don't care about these details, you know, although Zhao Lao is old, he is more experienced! He had worked in the gladiatorial arena for twenty or thirty years, as the saying goes, he had never eaten pork and seen a pig run, Zhao Lao had watched the battle for so long, and he was proficient in all kinds of martial arts moves, which can be described as a priceless treasure of high morality......"
"Cleaning? Not a gladiator? ”
"Oh, don't care about these details, adults, they all work in the gladiatorial arena, all the same, all the same!"
Zhang Yu's face is full of black lines, damn it, can this be the same?
"Speaking of some active gladiators, have you recruited them?"
Youth: "Well, of course I've been recruited, but it's a long way away, and some people are still on the way." ”
Zhang Yu: "So no one is there?" ”
"Can't say that! After Commander Guan's repeated efforts, the number of active gladiators has reached 4,000, but according to the above meaning, it is better to let them serve as grassroots officers, as for the soldiers, I personally recommend you to use treasure-level figures like Brother Liu and Zhao Lao. ”
"Take me to the active gladiators! As for treasures like Brother Liu and Old Zhao, I can't afford to use them, so I'd better leave them to others to choose from! ”
Zhang Yu looked at the group of old, weak, sick and disabled people on the training ground, and couldn't help but be speechless.
What is it called the Great Xia United Army, how good is it to simply call it a disability shelter.
If you don't call the old, weak, sick and disabled army, it's okay......
