Chapter 120: Wu Begins to Serve as Generals
The crowd was in good spirits again.
Finally the key has arrived.
Half of Zhang was led by the general Zhang Bu and sent 1,000 men to attack Beishan Fort. Beishan Fort is dilapidated and has few soldiers, how can you compete with him?
If you can't compete with him, it's better to go. It's not interesting to do Jin Baihu down.
In front of everyone, Wu Nian untied the saber at his waist and put it on the coffee table. In the tiger's eyes, the essence flashed, and he sneered: "Half Zhang is very strong, indeed very strong." But I judge that he is just bluffing this time. ”
Speaking of this, Wu Nian had a sneer on his face and said, "Banbian Zhang is a scholarly family, not a real bandit. Some of them were officials in the state of Chu. If Zhang Bu led his troops to a bloody battle in Beishan Fort here, the news spread to the Chu State. What will the imperial court think? ”
After a pause, Wu Nian said again: "If we take advantage of Banbian Zhang's power and run away, then it will hit Banbian Zhang's arms." ”
"Of course. The bluff will also change. If we are weak when defending the city, Banbian Zhang will quickly pounce and break us in a short time. ”
Only then did everyone wake up and pat their thighs, it was really.
They were all frightened by Banbianzhang's prestige, and their first thought was to escape.
But Banbian Zhang is not a bandit. They are now openly attacking Beishan Fort, and it is very likely that they are bluffing.
But this bluff is also extremely dangerous.
If they show weakness, then Banbian Zhang may dare to really attack.
Kill Wu Nian and leave.
Based on this judgment, then it is easy to do. Half of the Zhang is strong, then Beishan Fort has to be even stronger, putting on a momentum that if you dare to come up, I will dare to collapse your teeth.
As long as you are not afraid, there is a way.
If you're scared, it's over.
Wu Nian raised his head, his eyes swept over everyone, and only after they had finished digesting did he say, "First." Publish a notice to tell all military households about this. I have the prestige to make them believe in me, to stand on the city, and to contribute to the prestige of Beishan Fort. ”
"Second. Starting from 100 households, all officials were not allowed to withhold money and food from soldiers. In addition, the soldiers who replenish the flags are not allowed to eat empty salaries. ”
"Third. Let Li Yong lead the men to temporarily repair the cracks in the city wall with wood. ”
"Yes." Chen Jinshi and the little flags were instantly possessed by the god of war, and their courage rebounded, and they should say loudly.
At this time, they did not consider the interests of not being able to withhold military rations and eat empty salaries, and they had to tide over the difficulties first.
Under the co-ordination of Wu Nian, this dilapidated hundred-household office became a real hundred-household house.
Needless to say, Li Yong was already in charge of repairing the city wall. Now there is no way to do it, so I can only temporarily erect wood and make urgent repairs to the city walls.
Anyway, the military families are very hardworking.
And the issuance of the proclamation requires Wu Nian's huge prestige.
The gentleman who was in charge of these things in the hundred households worked hard to write the proclamation. Some soldiers, beating gongs and drums, posted notices on the fixed-point bulletin boards in the 100 households, explaining what had happened to the military households by the way.
Military households gathered in front of the bulletin board to watch and discuss.
"Banbian Zhang is really bold, he dares to lead a thousand elite soldiers to attack the imperial court's guards."
"Don't be afraid. We're not vegetarians either. Everyone is a military household, who can't shoot a bow and arrows? In addition, we guard the city wall, as long as we are not afraid of death, half of Zhang's 1,000 elite soldiers will not be able to attack us. ”
"yes. I also said it above. Now the small banners of the 100 households have begun to recruit soldiers, and the treatment is favorable, and military rations are not deducted. You see, there is also Wu Xiaoqi's guarantee. If it were someone else, I wouldn't believe it. But Wu Xiaoqi, he is a well-known preferential soldier. The last time Jiang You died, he also gave thirty taels of silver. How many people want to squeeze into his small flag, but unfortunately they can't get in. ”
"That's right. With Wu Xiaoqi here, what are you afraid of? Let's go. Join the army and go. As long as the officials do not withhold military rations, they will not let us farm. Who wouldn't want to be a soldier? Being a soldier is nourishing. ”
Relying on Wu Nian's huge prestige, the military households pondered it and did it. They strode towards the barracks.
The entire hundred households have a total population of two or three thousand people.
Men are twenty years old and adults.
The average life expectancy of Liaodong people is low, there are few old people, and there are many strong people. There are seven or eight hundred of these young people, young people, and prime of life, and as many as eighty percent of them signed up to join the army at one time.
Not to mention that the soldiers are now in the city.
It would have been unimaginable before.
But with the support of Wu Nian's huge prestige, it all came naturally.
In the hall of the hundred households, after everyone got the news, they were all refreshed and full of strength. We are a guard, what are you afraid of?
Let's not talk about whether Banbian Zhang is a bluff or not, with such a big force, even if it is a bloody battle, he is not afraid.
"Brother. It's all your prestige. Li Kun took a deep breath, raised his right hand towards Wu Nian, and gave a thumbs up.
Wu Nian shook his head and did not speak.
This is how water can carry a boat and capsize a boat.
As long as the ruler is good to the people, the people will help the ruler.
Those who have attained the Tao have much help, and those who have lost the Tao have little help.
"Someone. Go and call Wang Gui and Zhang Sheng in. Wu Nian raised his head and said to the guards outside the door.
"Yes." The soldier answered, turned and went down.
Not long after, Zhang Sheng, who was dressed in armor, and Wang Gui, who was wearing a battle jacket, walked in, bowed to everyone, and then stood still.
Wu Nian looked up at Wang Gui and was also very satisfied. This is the first elder brother to follow him, although he used to be frail and sickly, but after his life improved, his body gradually became stronger.
"It's up to you to recruit soldiers. The way is to run and choose people with good physical fitness. Other than that. Three generations of single male don't want it. Do not have a father or a brother in the army. ”
Wu Nian has the demeanor of a general, and said in a deep voice.
"Yes." The two of them responded with a bang, turned and left.
Three generations of single transmission have scruples. If a father or son or brother is in the army, he must go back to one. This is the art of war that has existed since ancient times.
Originally, it was going to eliminate the old and weak, but in order to avoid turmoil, this time it was forgotten. Zhang Sheng and Wang Gui did a very good job, but it was just an hour's time, and they selected the people.
After Wu Nian heard the report, he immediately asked people to beat the drum and count the troops.
The little flags went down first, and led the ten soldiers of each flag to the school field to line up neatly. When it was almost time, Wu Nian, Li Kun, and Chen Jinshi arrived at the school together, and boarded the platform to watch ahead.
Wu Nian stood here and looked down, and couldn't help but think of a few months ago. When he stood below, he looked up at the scene of Jin Man City, Li Kun, and Cheng Gao.
It's only been a few months.
He was already standing on the stage, looking at the soldiers in the audience.
And the audience is not crooked melons and cracked dates, but a full number of 110 people.
The nominal hundred households are Li Kun, but in fact they are his generals.
What a small flag officer, just a small soldier from the seventh grade.
That's it for the general flag.
Only this hundred households, commanding one hundred and twelve soldiers, can be regarded as a real general.
Today is the beginning of my generals.
