Chapter 249: Brother, Don't Drive Us Away
Chao Gai saw Chao Fu rushing over, and he still trusted the housekeeper's words very much. A group of soldiers clamoring to see themselves? What is the situation in my heart? Although he was asking, "There is such a thing", he had already thrown off his stride and walked outside, Hu Sanniang and Yelu Tali glanced at each other and hurriedly followed.
As soon as everyone walked out of the inner house area, they saw a lot of people gathered outside. Most of them were familiar faces, and many of them were loud and even crying. Han Shizhong, Guo Sheng, Chao Qiang, Su Ding and other generals persuaded on the side.
Chao Gai recognized at a glance that this was his own personal guard battalion member, and suddenly thought of yesterday's order, could it be because someone was promoted, and others were red or unconvinced, so they were emotional, and shouted to see themselves and ask for an explanation!
As soon as this thought came to him, his face darkened, and he was faintly annoyed. Unpleasantly pinching his finger bones and crackling, ready to go over and beat someone.
I don't know who shouted that my brother was coming, and everyone gathered around him.
"What's going on?" Chao Gai frowned with a gloomy face, looking at Han Shizhong. His eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he looked like a silent volcano waiting to erupt.
"Brother, don't get me wrong!" Han Shizhong and Guo Sheng only felt a palpitation, and hurriedly stepped forward: "They are selected officers, and they don't want to leave the guard battalion." If you don't listen to persuasion, you can't stop it, so you have to come to my brother. ”
"Brother, don't drive us away."
"We don't want to be a commander."
"Yes, even if it's a big soldier, you have to follow your brother."
In the crowd, one by one the big men with grievances on their faces rushed forward. Some even cried and shouted that they didn't want to leave the old team.
So that's the case? Hu Sanniang, Yelu was stunned.
Chao Gai's original brewing momentum deflated like a deflated ball. It was very familiar to see these people crying and shouting, as if they were like this when they left the team, and they were moved and sighed.
The soldiers who are trained by themselves are emotional!
He was very happy in his heart, but he still scolded with a gloomy face: "Nonsense! You are so bold, this is lawlessness and violation of military orders! What I've learned in half a year is just playing tricks? Look at whether you stand up or not, sit or not, all stand up straight for me! ”
Bang la blah
The crowd, which was originally a little scattered, formed a phalanx in a few seconds!
"Look at your virtue, eight feet tall and tearful and slugging, how good do you have? It's a shame that you're still in the guard battalion! Spread the jokes of outsiders, but I can't afford to lose that person,"
Chao Gai's face was full of anger, and he walked in the formation of these guards with his hands behind his back. Although he was scolding, he kindly rolled up the collar of his military uniform or smoothed out the wrinkles, and wiped his tears with a handkerchief.
"The water flows low, and the people go high! How is it to decentralize you? It's a good thing to be transferred and promoted, and you should be happy to say goodbye. It's not 108,000 miles away, so it's so life and death. Or do you not want to throw your arms and contribute after my order is given? ”
"No, no!" More than 100 people shook their heads in unison.
"That's right, it's just that there is a shortage of officers everywhere, you have learned a lot from marching and fighting, and you have performed well, and it is very normal to be transferred. And Lao Tzu told you that if you can't bring the soldiers well, the commanders of the armies will say that they will change generals. Don't blame me for saying ugly things first, if this phenomenon really happens, don't think about going back to the old team, and report directly to raise horses and pick up dung. ”
"Did you hear that?" Chao Gai shook his face and shouted!
"I heard you!" More than 100 guards responded with their heads held high.
"Be louder, you can't hear me!" Chao Gai plucked his ears and asked again.
"I heard, I heard......" shouted in unison, piercing the sky.
"Okay, then you go down and prepare! The handover is good, and follow General Han's arrangement. Chao Gai nodded, directly announced the disbandment, turned around and strode away. Hu Sanniang and Yelu Tali came back to their senses and hurriedly caught up.
"Brother...... More than 100 big men looked at Chao Gai's back, and their noses were a little sour. Although I was a little reluctant, I didn't have the same emotion as before. Everyone clenched their fists and secretly swore that they would not be ashamed to go to the new team.
"A group of fools, theory is theory after all, and only practice will grow." Chao Gai walked out into the distance before he stopped, and let out a long sigh.
Who wouldn't want to lead a veteran into battle? But for the sake of the big picture, I have to do this. Although the development of the Chao family army is rapid, it is too short after all. Fortunately, he had already considered this situation and cultivated his personal guards early.
"It seems that something is missing, by the way, it's a ceremony, it's a farewell military song." Chao Gai always felt that this kind of scene was uncomfortable, and suddenly slapped his head.
"Military songs?" Hu Sanniang, who was chasing, happened to hear Yelu Taribi muttering.
"That's right, military song! A song unique to the whole army! Chao Gai nodded, thinking of military songs such as the March of the Volunteers, which are crucial to inspiring the confidence of the soldiers and helping to strengthen the cohesion of the team in peacetime.
"This thing is very interesting, and I will go back and form a band with my teacher." Thinking about it, he directly shook off the two women and walked to the room.
Hu Sanniang and Yelu Talibi reacted and chased after them with grinning teeth.
"You dead ghost, you should be with us during the day."
"That's it, you promised to teach us martial arts."
"Okay, eat breakfast first to make up, otherwise the kidney will be deficient!"
Chao Gai was entangled by two women on the left and right, pushing and shoving, and came to the room. This time, the poor chef Wang was directly squeezed to cut the pier.
The three of them were busy in the room for a while, making a rich breakfast. Carrying the food box, he returned with a smile and had breakfast with Li Qingwan and Master Li.
During this period, Li Qingwan said that she had something to do in the city!
Chao Gai didn't ask much, and told the woman to be careful, after eating. was dragged by Hu Sanniang and Yelu Tali to the outside martial arts arena to compete.
From the basic skills of boxing and knife skills, to the skills and actual combat drills, everything is not left behind. Sometimes the martial arts arena in the inner house is too small, and it is not suitable for the two armies to face off at all, and Chao Gai was forcibly pulled to the women's barracks by two women.
The two women are furious, and it's useless to let the men struggle no matter how they struggle! In their words, if you say it beforehand, you have to do it.
What else can Chao Gai do? can only practice the martial arts of the two women and help train the female soldiers. By the way, Li Jun and the Tong brothers were called to discuss the matter of going to sea, which route was the closest, and the least accidents were encountered. For example, if you sail close to the coastline, it will be safer to be well prepared.
He is still the commander of the trapped army, and he has to be trained personally. Preparing for the principal's speech course, Chaojiazhuang has to make decisions on various major matters, and he is busy during the day, and he has to face the toss of his wife when he goes home at night......
A glimpse of the whole leopard can be seen, how busy is the Chao Gai schedule? Fortunately, Chaojiazhuang is on the right track, and there are five major military divisions to assist in handling affairs. The trapped army also has Han Shizhong, Guo Sheng and other capable generals.
But Rao is like this, he is running around, so busy that his feet don't touch the ground! Even the military songs and the formation of the band were discussed with Master Li on the bed.
For several days, I spent it in this state of fulfillment!
The more than 100 guards who were transferred from the guard battalion were assigned to each army according to their strengths or interests. As soon as he took office, he gave Chao Gai a long face. There is a kind of confrontation in the same way, and those unconvinced thorns are knocked down. Whether it is foot fighting, horseback riding, or even water fighting, there is no timidity.
couldn't help but show his martial arts and successfully became a commander. Also showed amazing talents, not for long, but in no way inferior to other battalions. The key is to obey orders and strictly implement military orders without discounting. Immediately, the generals of the various armies were like treasures, and even chattered with Chao Gai.
Say what to say, send more people to help!
Chao Gai had no choice but to add a trap training battalion, the number of which was set at 500 people, and select outstanding performers from each army.
News came from the north that the Liao State and the Jin State were facing each other with large soldiers on the border, and there were frictions and conflicts from time to time. Wars have afflicted the people since ancient times.
There are countless people fleeing at the border, which is cheaper for Chaojiazhuang. In just over ten days, 18,000 people and many tribes were willing to settle down in the south. Yinmachuan Dazhai took the opportunity to recruit troops, and the second cavalry army took the lead in full formation.
The purchase of cattle, sheep and livestock went very smoothly, and tens of thousands of cattle and sheep and more than 2,000 good horses were brought back. Calculate the time, not far from the Spring Festival of Liao.
Chao Gai and several military advisors agreed that this strategic location in the north was crucial. Luan Tingyu and the sixth battalion of infantry led by Deng Fei rushed to the north to assist in the defense.
On the day of the pull-out, the two armies of Ma and Ma can be seen in addition to the naval army. One by one, they openly or secretly found a few military advisors, and even directly asked Chao Gai for help. Lin Chong and Sun An in the garrison army were not to be outdone.
Or Chao Gai, the big boss, said that everyone has a share, so this matter was resolved.
Another piece of good news is that Xiao Wenhou Lu Fang, Black Mountain Kite Chen Hu, and Feitian Hucheng escorted hundreds of cattle and horses to arrive. In addition to the old lady Hu who came to the city to settle down, the experienced boatman also came!
The boat master was the management and technical personnel who were said to be in charge of the navigation of ships at sea in the Song Dynasty. Historically, during the Yuan Fu period (1098-1100), the boatmaster of the Guangzhou sea ship used the language, astronomy and compass to navigate: "The boatmaster knows geography, watches the stars at night, obscures the sun during the day, and obscures the compass."
The boatmaster must know how to observe the sun, the stars, and the compass, and navigate according to the seaway needle in combination with the hydrological and geological conditions. In the case of the development of a new route, the boatmaster must record the needle path of each section of the sea route on the new route. In a word, the team going to sea must have a boat master.
In addition to waiting for the spring flowers to bloom, Chao Gai is waiting for this kind of professional talent. Knowing that his eldest brother Hu Cheng had a long talk with him when he went to sea, he learned that he knew that there was a boat master in Danjia Village, Yunzhou, and the relationship was good, so he promised to come.
Now, all families are coming to run!
There are more than 10 boat divisions.
Hu Cheng introduced him, and Chao Gai talked happily according to several masters in Shanjia Village.
"A few masters, the team going to sea will bother you, Chao must thank you again."
The old patriarch of Shanjia Village is old, with his back bent, but he is in good spirits. Looking at Chao Gai's dignified appearance, majestic and majestic, his voice was very loud: "Chao Tianwang helps the poor and helps the poor!" The old man has to help even if he rushes to this, it's good that he is as kind as you! ”
Chao Gai knew the truth that people became old and refined, so he didn't say much, invited a few people to the house to talk in detail, and asked Li Jun and Fei Bao and other naval commanders to be informed.
