Chapter 13: The Snow Wolf Army
Kong Ming looked at the steward of Haicheng City in front of him, he knew that this person did not represent the city lord, he was just a person in charge of delivering words. But Kong Ming knows that this construction has a certain feasibility, and the most important point is that the reason why the chaotic land is chaotic is not only because the god-level powerhouses in it do not deal with the powerhouses of the Harvey Empire, but also because there are many people from other countries here who are constantly picking up the relationship between the two, coupled with hundreds of years of blood and fire, the inheritance of this hatred cannot be eliminated in a day or two. Besides, the reason why there are so many mercenaries in the Land of Chaos is caused by this place, and no one dares to live here without any skills. Therefore, once Kong Ming proposes this person's condition, it is feasible to a certain extent.
"I can't promise you this on behalf of the city lord, but I think I'll go back and report to the city lord now, and I'll talk about it when the time comes. Hai Jianxing said.
"Yes, we will be here for a while, and as a neighbor we are more than welcome to come and sit down. Kong Ming said with a smile.
"Then I'm leaving, oh, by the way, those people outside, except for a few people from the City Lord's Mansion that I brought, the others all heard that you were fighting with the Harvey Army and came to defect, I hope the commander will make it convenient. ”
"Hehe, for joining the army, I personally have always refused to come. Signal Corps, let the commander of the fifth regiment take a look, and then if it meets our conditions, he will be recruited directly. ”
"Yes!" replied a signal soldier next to him, and went directly to the commander of the fifth regiment.
"Then I'll take my leave!"
"Let's go!"
Watching Hai Jian go away, Hou Yu asked, "Is there a problem with those people?"
"There must be problems, and a few of them may still be from the City Lord's Mansion, they just want to see how we are doing here, it's not a big deal, and we can also get some benefits indirectly through them, and the other people may have spies from other places, and even spies from the Harvey Army, at this time, we don't have much to do, let's recruit them, I just need them to come in, and after they come in, they can't help them." Hehe. Kong Ming said with a smile, if it were somewhere else, maybe there would be concerns about this kind of military leakage, but here there is no leakage, by them, as long as they are with them, once they have a few battles with the Harvey, even the enemy will become a brother, there is no way This is the role of the army. The key to an army is the soul of the army, and once the soul is established, it is difficult for anyone to change it. And once those people enter it, not to mention a few details, these people can also let them give Kong Ming more room to play, why not.
"By the way, from today onwards, we will be known to the outside world as the Snow Wolf Army. Kong Ming continued.
"Snow Wolf Army?"
"Yes, there's a sign for selling things, we won't even be as good as selling things, right?"
"Okay, I'll go tell them. "Since this day, Snow Wolf has become the permanent title of this mercenary.
For three days, there was no reply from Hairong City, and Kong Ming didn't know what they were thinking. But none of this qiē has anything to do with Kong Ming, because Kong Ming is now recruiting. Kong Ming asked the mercenaries to post advertisements for recruiting soldiers to every corner of the city, and Kong Ming's advertising words made all the mercenaries feel incredible, and this advertisement has become a topic that the wolf snow mercenaries have been talking about, until a long, long time.
"Snow Wolf mercenaries, recruit mercenaries, recruitment conditions: all kinds of professionals above the third level (special occupations can ignore this condition), the number of personnel is not limited, regardless of origin (women are not accepted), the age of sixteen to all ages that can fight, bring their own weapons, the purpose is to fight with the Harvey army. Treatment: None. People from all walks of life are welcome to apply. ------ Snow Wolf mercenaries. ”
As soon as Kong Ming's condition came out, the whole city went completely crazy, not for the sake of enthusiastic conscription, but for the conditions offered by this brainless snow wolf mercenary, who would want to do something that had no benefits? Isn't this a long-term rejection of people? Even Hou Yu, the captain of the Kong Ming special detachment, Che Qi, the head of the second regiment, and Lu Hai, the head of the fifth regiment, all came to Kong Ming to ask about this matter.
"Of course it's true. Kong Ming replied.
"How could we have summoned mercenaries in that case?"
"I don't want ordinary soldiers now, I just need those who want to go to Harvey, and these people are thinking about returning to Harvey day and night, and I am giving them a chance, a chance to return to Harvey, you must know that the people who were able to escape here from Harvey are not some simple people, and they are all people with stories, if they don't want to go back, it's just that, if they want to go back, they will definitely come to our unconditional team, and our team is for this kind of people, once we enter the territory of Harvey, our team will expand a hundred thousand times, although I don't know if we can achieve brilliant results later, but I know one thing, this is an opportunity to ignite the rebellion of the Harvey, hmph, if that three devils dare to trick me, they will have to pay a price he can't imagine. ”
"It's hard to think of such an excuse, I thought your conscription here was just an excuse to get money from the city. Hou Yu smiled bitterly.
"Really, isn't that a good excuse, and an open excuse, and I'm just going to tell them that I'm only here for a while, and don't beat my mind. ”
"Come to think of it, the city lord is very depressed now. ”
"Huh. ”
"Huh. ”
"Huh. ”
"Huh. ”
While recruiting mercenaries, Kong Ming asked the city lord for money and food while training officers. Tong Guò this time the battle Kongming deeply knows that whether there are officers or not is very different, if there are a few officers who can be at that time, then the losses can be reduced even more, you must know that many times it is because of the problem of inadequate command, so that the battle misses a good opportunity. Therefore, this is a top priority, and it must not be delayed, otherwise the next loss will be even more severe.
In the mercenary camp, Kong Ming gathered 300 personnel above the squad leader in the mercenary army to conduct the first officer training of the mercenary army in a wide place. On the scene, those mercenaries didn't know what Kong Ming wanted them to do, so they had to stand in the center of the field according to the mercenary formation, at this time, I saw Kong Ming's several signal soldiers carry a blackboard and put it in the center of the field, and the signal soldiers put a piece of cloth and chalk next to the blackboard. Kong Ming walked to the center of the field and asked everyone to sit down on the spot. These mercenaries had already made trouble according to their original nature, but after the previous battle, their confidence in Kong Ming seemed to have increased overnight, you must know that it is definitely not easy to bring out so many people in that desperate situation, although they have not seen Kong Ming make a move, but this is important? You must know that Kong Ming is a person who let three saints die silently, such a person is absolutely terrifying no matter whether his strength is high or low. So after hearing Kong Ming's words, he sat down directly without saying much. Kong Ming looked at the more than 300 people, this is the foundation of the mercenary army, in the future, it will be up to these people to support a strong army, and only by them can you know that to become a strong person, only hard work will not have too bad cultivation, but to establish a strong army, what kind of hard work will it take.
"A lot of people have been following me for months, but they don't know much about me, and before I fight, I thought it was just a simple mercenary mission, just thinking about it. But I finally knew about the last battle, we were calculated, I believe that everyone knows about this matter these days, we are actually just the predetermined heads of other people's war exploits, the more I talk about it, the more angry I become, those things that are not mother's raised, such a conspiracy can be thought of, so how can we let go of these people who have relied on this kind of conspiracy to achieve war merits before? Do you say!!"
"That's right!"
"Fuck him!"
"Yes"
......
The angry voices came and went, and even the surrounding soldiers who were watching the excitement from a distance exhaled, and then even many soldiers consciously sat down around the crowd to see what they were going to say. Kong Ming didn't stop it, in Kong Ming's opinion, it was not a good behavior to stop a person's learning, but what Kong Ming didn't expect was that more people gradually came here to listen to the class, which made Kong Ming have to use a magician to do amplification. And this behavior also inadvertently trained more officers for the Snow Wolf mercenaries. With a wave of his hand, he stopped the people in the field, and continued:
"That's right, fuck him. But for this purpose, we have to have certain means, otherwise, we will not be able to do those bastards, and we will be trained into them. Our means of doing this is to organize a strong army of the whole continent. Let them bastards spit out all that blood to me under our sword. And as an army, we all have to understand each other, now let me introduce myself, Kong Ming, the fire great sword master, the space magic master, the Kari of the Huayuan Empire, joined the army in Kari at the age of fourteen to fight against the Huayuan Empire, and has experienced many battles. After the Kari War, he changed his magic, and entered Huayuan Comprehensive University to study magic and military affairs, studied for three years, participated in the battle of Chu in 1013, successively served as captain, captain, regiment commander, staff officer, once independently commanded several battles and won all victories, after the battle of Chudu, the formation of the Snow Wolf Mercenary Group, after three battles, annihilated more than 8,000 people in the Harvey army, including a sword master, more than 50 great swordsmen and wizards and other masters. After the Battle of Chu, he left the Snow Wolf Mercenary Group. He was a teaching assistant at the School of Magic at Harvey Imperial University. I say this to get to know each other, and for an army, the experience of a commander is an irreplaceable capital, and I say this to give everyone some confidence in me. Now let's talk about today's content, and today we will mainly talk about the tasks and tactical basis of officers. ”
After listening to Kong Ming's introduction, those mercenaries suddenly felt a lot less contempt for Kong Ming, a young commander, to know that no matter who has such combat experience, they can show off to others, this has nothing to do with age, only strength. After hearing that Kong Ming actually asked them to learn how to be an officer and teach them some basic tactics, they had some more expectations in their hearts, if nothing else, just a special curiosity about a new thing.
For example, if there is a group of wolves, then the head wolf is their officer, and the food of this group of wolves depends entirely on whether the head wolf is qualified, and a qualified head wolf must make their wolf pack eat well and let the wolf pack develop more rapidly, then it has to do several things. First, it must be an experienced wolf, otherwise it will not know where the food is, it is the hunter's trap, and it must know how to find the food and have the means to obtain it. Second, he must be capable enough to lead the wolves, not only in terms of its combat effectiveness, but also in its ability to control the wolves, and it must have the means to make it impossible for the other male wolves to challenge its leadership, to keep those wolves tightly around it, and it must also lead those wolves to fight. Thirdly, it must know tactics, and what I said is especially important among wolves, because what distinguishes wolves from other animals is that they know how to use tactics to defeat powerful enemies. The reason why I call our army the Snow Wolf is to make our army like the Snow Wolf, a nightmare for the Harvey Army, and use the same tactics as the Snow Wolf to defeat them, so we need different head wolves, in a small team, the squad leader is the head wolf, in a team, the captain is the head wolf, in a regiment, the head of the regiment is the head wolf, and in the whole mercenary army, the commander is the head wolf. This is the officer, not so mysterious, and the rest of the arguments are. ”
"Huh!"
"Haha!"
"Haha!"
"Haha!"
Kong Ming's statement is really simple and clear, no more rhetoric, but it is just a popular word.
"As an officer, you first have to know what obedience is, you have to make your soldiers obey you, and you also have to obey your superiors, fortunately, you are in the mercenary army, and there is a discipline that guarantees your initial leadership over your subordinates. This is the appointment of the superior, but don't think that this is omnipotent, you know, the appointment of the superior can only ensure your initial leadership, and most of the other work still needs to be done by yourself, otherwise they will treat your words as bullshit. To give you a simple example, when you first arrived, you were a sixty-point officer in their minds, and they were only qualified, not because of you, but because of the position. When you do something to convince them, then in their minds, you add one point, and if you do something wrong, then you lose two points in their minds. Don't think it's unfair, know that one's shortcomings are always magnified countless times in the hearts of others, and the good ones are usually selectively forgotten. Don't argue with me about whether this thing is right or wrong, that's human nature, if you think mine is wrong, then you can argue with others but not with me. ”
Kong Ming used various examples to introduce the officer, a seemingly superior profession in the army, but it is just a necessary existence in the army, and many of the things that Kong Ming did not talk about, because for these people, these are not needed, they only need to know two points, one is that the officer is a duty, and the other is the obligation of the officer. That's the only way, Kong Ming's witty statement also made many mercenaries unconsciously accept many of Kong Ming's views. Looking at the mercenaries below listening with relish, Kong Ming knew that the heat was enough, and if he continued to talk about it, it would not only be ineffective, but it would also affect the thinking of the mercenaries. So they were disbanded.
On the way back, Lu Hai walked to Kong Ming's left side: "Commander, the city lord has sent someone." ”
"Oh? Or the butler?"
"That's right. He is waiting in front of your tent. ”
"Let's go, let's go over and see if he can bring us some good news. ”
"Your offer seems too much, and they will agree?"
"Why do you want to do so much? Just go and see it, it's right in front of you anyway. ”
The two of them walked all the way, and from a distance, they saw Hai Jianxing walking around in front of Kongming's tent, thinking that they had been waiting for some time, and they were a little annoyed in their hearts.
"Hehe, let the sea steward wait for a long time, forgive your sins!"
"Where, where, Commander Kongming is a busy man, and I haven't been here for a while. ”
"Watching the housekeeper's appearance, there is obviously some good news for us?"
"Hehe, it's good news, the city lord has agreed to the commander's request, as long as the commander is here for a day, our supplies will be in charge, but there is one thing that the city lord has emphasized, once the Harvey army comes, you must fulfill your oath. ”
"Hehe, there's no problem with that. Kong Ming replied without thinking about it, this is really not a problem, and whether the Harvey Army will come this year depends on the development of the form, and Kong Ming just wants to borrow this place to recruit and train for a while.
"In addition, the city lord said that if your troops want to recruit troops here, you can do it, but don't force them, the city lord wants those who join the army to be voluntary. ”
"Of course, twisted melons are not sweet, and we will not do such a thing. ”
"Then I hope we have a good time working together. ”
"Happy cooperation, oh I think there is another thing that needs to trouble the housekeeper, so I told the city lord that we have not enough horses here, and I hope the city lord will give us 10,000 horses." Kong Ming said with a smile.
"Ten thousand......? I'm going to report to the lord of the city. With that, he hurried away.
"Commander, isn't 10,000 horses too much?" Lu Hai asked. Even those who came with him felt that Kong Ming was asking too much.
"Not much. Kong Ming said. No one will benefit the people for no reason, and Kong Ming will not give them a few dollars to repel the Harvey army for no reason, Kong Ming is just sending a signal, that is, Kong Ming is now in a hurry to build an army, and there are more than 10,000 people. This 10,000 horses means that there are more than 10,000 people in his army, and the lord of the city will be equipped according to this number. Of course, horses are the focus, because Kong Ming wants to build a cavalry, not infantry, although it is said that because people here can cultivate, the average third-level soldier can compare the speed with the horse, but it is always good to be able to save a little, and the cavalry can let people borrow the speed of the horse when impacting to strengthen the attack.
"Lu Hai, how are those formation demonstration teams preparing?"
"It's a little bit formed, but it will take three or four days to finish. ”
"There is not so much time, we can't let these soldiers do nothing, otherwise there will be a lot of unnecessary incidents, well, it's better to do this, all the squad leaders above Mingkai watch the formation demonstration, and then start training. ”
"Isn't that too much of a hurry?"
"Don't be in a hurry, recruit and train at the same time, and those recruits will be divided as soon as they come, so that they can get in touch with each other as much as possible, and we will try to get out of here as soon as possible. ”
"Why, isn't it nice here?"
"Have you noticed that no matter what we ask, the city lord agrees very happily?"
"There's a problem here?"
"I've sent people out to ask that every year in November, before the snow comes, the Harveys come here to practice, and now it seems that there will be a month and a half at most, and we must get out of here within this month. ”
"Where to go?"
"Harvey Empire!"
"The Harvey Empire?"
"Hehe, then you will know, we not only want to make the three devils regret it, but also make him spit out what he ate. Otherwise, who is worthy of our 5,000 dead people, and where is worthy of the fact that he spent so much money to bring us here. ”
Speaking of this, it was obvious that several people were very excited, if it wasn't for Kong Ming's quick reaction, then it would be difficult for them to say it now, and letting the three devils suffer was what they were most willing to do now. What Kong Ming didn't know was that now the third prince, because the people under his command privately invited Kong Ming, the commander, to greatly reduce his military exploits, for those who are losing their temper, if they don't invite Kong Ming, then this year he can get the credit of annihilating the invading enemy 10,000 people, and he can also take a step ahead of others on the road to the throne. But because of the occurrence of the matter of Kongming, please now know his methods in the imperial capital, many people are discussing his genius methods, and even some people have begun to imitate his methods, which makes him really hate the dead ghost Sun Zhixing.
