Chapter 56: Questioning
"Beat the drums, gather the troops."
Chen Wang's words are like gold, and he stepped forward.
Zhao Huailiang was afraid, how dare he not listen to the order given by Chen Wang, he led the order loudly, and then asked the accompanying family members to immediately beat the drum and gather troops.
The drumming of the drums of the gathering soldiers slowly sounded on the school ground, and a group of Liao soldiers scattered throughout the camp heard the sound.
The news of the arrival of the new battalion had already spread, and after hearing the sound of the drums of the troops, everyone did not slack off, and immediately walked in the direction of the school field.
The drum sounded three ways, one out of the account, two through the assembly, and three through the soldiers.
The three-way drum stops, and those who do not arrive at the school field will be beheaded regardless of the soldiers and generals!
This is not only the military discipline under Cao Wenzhao, but also the military discipline in their camp.
Zhang Waijia will not care about things such as robbing places and robbing rich households.
But in the marching battle, Zhang Waijia has always been extremely strict, and those who can't get to the three-way drum will be killed!
Cao Wenzhao was even more strict in governing the army, and they are now all under Cao Wenzhao's command.
The new battalion general looks like a person who is not easy to get along with, with more than 60 cavalrymen with helmets and armor, with a murderous appearance, just waiting for Liwei.
The new official took office with three fires, and those who did not stop the drum were just used to establish their authority.
They have been soldiers for many years, and they all ran out of Sanshui City, and who is really stupid?
When the three-way drum stopped, everyone on the school field was already standing.
However, the standing was very chaotic, the array was crooked, and the canine teeth were staggered.
Most of the Liao soldiers under Zhang Waijia were cavalry, and the infantry queue was basically not well trained.
After the defeat of Sanshui City, a large number of generals were either killed or captured, and the organization level tended to zero indefinitely.
Chen Wang also got the military register and related documents handed over by Zhao Huailiang.
The military system of Liaozhen is not the same as that of Datong, Zhang Waijia is the deputy general, that is, the deputy chief soldier, and he is under the command of the Qi Barracks.
In the military system of the town garrison battalion, the four levels of general soldier, deputy general, staff general, and guerrilla can lead a battalion alone.
The general commander led the main barracks, the deputy generals led the odd barracks, the staff generals led the reinforcement battalions, and the guerrilla commanders led the guerrilla battalions.
The main barracks, under the direct command of the general army, are generally stationed in important defense areas and undertake the main defense tasks.
The name of the strange barracks is to take out the meaning of Qi to win, and the responsibilities are mainly to go to help, set up ambushes, and defend.
The reinforcement battalion focuses on things such as rushing to replenish the army, and is generally in the secondary defensive area as an aid force.
The guerrilla battalion basically has no fixed defense area, as if it were firefighters.
Under the military system of the Ming Dynasty, the general soldiers, deputy generals, and staff generals each had garrison areas, while guerrillas did not, and they were mobilized from all over the country.
Zhang Waijia originally led the Qi Barracks, with a total of 2,820 soldiers, compared to 2,270 before the Sanshui War.
Chen Wang didn't know whether this data was true or not, but now there were only 917 people left in the battalion, which was almost a little more than a horse.
"Nine hundred and seventeen people, only fifty-seven collars in armor, and the rest of the ordnance statistics are not counted......"
Chen Wangda sat on the platform, snorted coldly, and threw the paperwork in his hand on the ground.
"Give you one night's time to count all the ordnance in the camp and report it to me tomorrow morning."
"Yes."
Zhao Huailiang lowered his eyebrows and replied respectfully.
The distinction between superior and inferior in the military is more severe than in other places.
Although civil officials are subordinate to each other, no matter how fiercely they fight, they are just using the power in their hands to make some stumbling blocks with each other.
But in the army, it is different, and military law is often beheading and beating.
In the barracks, the battalion general wanted to fiddle with a junior officer with no background, so he just found a plausible reason to kill him with a knife, and no one could make a mistake.
Of course, the means should not be too harsh, once the unscrupulous killing provokes a mutiny, the battalion general will be demoted and punished even if he does not die in the mutiny.
Chen Gong, who had inspected the situation in the camp for a circle, also ascended the platform at this time.
Hu Zhili, who went to get the county government to get the file, was already standing behind Chen Wang.
"Big brother, the horses have been counted, and there are nine hundred and fifty-nine in total."
Chen Gong stepped forward a little, bowed slightly and said in Chen Wang's ear.
"There are more than 30 women in the army, all of whom are Qinglou girls in the city, and they have temporarily sent people to guard them in the military tent in the northeast outside the school grounds."
Chen Wang's eyebrows were slightly raised, and he looked up at Zhao Huailiang, who was bowing his body and did not dare to stand upright.
It seems that this Zhao Huailiang still has a bit of brains, and he is not stupid enough to rape the people and girls in the city.
"Zhao is always good Yaxing, this brothel has been opened in the barracks."
Chen Wang's voice was low, and the murderous intent in his eyes was circulating, and the military camp in this era was almost a forbidden place for women.
"Tell General Zhao about the military regulations in the army."
Chen Wang held the horsewhip and said slowly.
Hu Zhili sneered and read.
"Whoever commits a traitor to a woman, and whoever puts a woman into the camp, be beheaded!"
Zhao Huailiang looked up at Chen Wang, just in time to see the murderous intent circulating in Chen Wang's eyes, his heart trembled at the moment, and all his drunken thoughts dissipated.
"The lowly head is drowsy, the restraint of the soldiers is not effective, and the stupid things done by the soldiers below are not stopped in time."
Zhao Huailiang already knew Chen Wang's identity and knew that he was not Cao Bianjiao.
But even so, Zhao Huailiang still didn't dare to despise Chen Wang, because Chen Wang's momentum was more unreckless than Zhang Waijia.
His eyes were full of evil spirits, and his eyes were sharp, as if he was facing a fierce beast.
He used to hunt in the mountains, and when he was on his way, he was blocked by fierce tigers.
The tiger was hunched in the middle of the road, looking up to meet his eyes, and now he felt the same as before.
The tiger who stood in the way looked at him a few times, and most of them had eaten enough and finally left on their own.
But Chen Wangke is not a well-fed tiger, but a battalion general who needs a head to stand up!
Zhao Huailiang knelt directly on the ground and kowtowed.
"The ability to humble himself is insufficient, and the demotion and punishment are all based on the order of the general army, and there is no complaint about the humble position."
Chen Wang's eyes flashed, and this Zhao Huailiang picked himself up in just a few words.
According to military law, the ineffective supervision of military academies is a demotion and a fine, at most a military stick.
Turning a capital crime into a demotion and punishment is indeed able to speak and be quick.
However, from the very beginning, Chen Wang did not want to kill Zhao Huailiang in order to correct military law.
Killing can be powerful, but you can't kill indiscriminately.
On the report, it was Zhao Huailiang's remnants who gathered and led most of the remnants to retreat from Sanshui City all the way to Chunhua, which is also a kind of ability.
"Can you explain to me a little bit more about these files?"
Chen Wang stood up and took a thick stack of files from Hu Zhili's hand.
"As soon as the official entered the city, the magistrate of Chunhua blocked my way and asked me for the guilt."
