"Captain, what the hell is that man?"

After separating from the group, Wu Zhongming led his team to continue to search for other places, they were ordered to go out of the camp this time, bringing a lot of supplies, except for food, the hand-to-hand battle just now consumed not much equipment.

Each team of thirty people, during this period of time, went out of the camp to sweep up the remnants, but in the end, one comrade died, and two were wounded. This is also the reason why Wu Zhongming's temper is getting bigger and bigger, and they all say that the men in the army are reckless, but in fact, it is also due to the environment.

The battlefield is either you die or I live, the most direct means, grinding and chirping is the one who harms yourself or your comrades.

Seeing that the other party is not your own person, you don't need superfluous words, and it is the best choice to eliminate the other party as soon as possible. In this case, the fault tolerance rate will be very low, and if you kill the wrong one, you will kill the wrong one. The victor is not blamed, the king is the king, and the whole world is universal.

"I don't know." Wu Zhongming shook his head, he was also confused, "When did there be such an atmosphere in the army?" Fighting a war has become a child's play for nobles? ”

Wu Zhongming originally thought that the other party was just an ordinary nobleman, and he had some complaints in his heart, and he was reluctant to talk about it, so as not to make the brothers unhappy and affect the atmosphere.

"Could that be the son of a great general?" A soldier asked cautiously.

"So what?" Wu Zhongming frowned, "Even if he is the emperor's son, in our eyes, he can only be regarded as an enemy on the battlefield!" Other times, it's useless to call him the king of heaven! Do your own thing, don't worry about the rest! ”

Everyone nodded silently when they heard this, and although the captain was usually short-tempered, he treated them like his own brothers, which was why his team was the most ferocious on the battlefield.

After staying in the army for a long time, I know one truth - a soldier who is not afraid of death is a good soldier.

But who can not be afraid of death?

Not afraid of death is all about living in the end, and a head like Wu Zhongming is undoubtedly the best demand for them.

Wu Zhongming is also aware of some public opinion about himself in the army, and there are people behind him, which cannot be compared with those officers who are on the right path, and people have always hated people who go through the back door.

There is no complaint, training with colleagues, doing better than anyone else, treating people as their own brothers, persevering for a long time, people's hearts are long, and the brothers will convince themselves.

Whatever you say outside, what the team says is up to you, and the brothers are willing to listen to themselves.

Soon after, after defeating another group of routs and returning to the camp, Wu Zhongming sent the wounded comrade in his hand to the military doctor, and then returned to his tent. He felt a little uneasy in his heart, as if something was going to happen.

This feeling made his brow furrow, and his heart was a little irritated.

Recently, some things have not gone well, and the defeated soldiers encountered are all resolute in resistance, not burying their heads and running, causing a lot of trouble to themselves, and reducing the number of four people, although Wu Zhongming is reluctant to make military achievements, he is not willing to use the lives of his brothers to forge his future, so he plans to submit an application to the people above.

There were four casualties in the whole team, and the current situation, the camp will agree to let them stay in the camp to rest.

At this time.

"Captain." A soldier walked in, "The general summons." ”

Wu Zhongming was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Got it." ”

With some trepidation in his heart, he followed the soldier to the general's tent. Unlike the other tents, they are larger and more heavily guarded.

Wu Zhongming's heart was even more worried, and he didn't know what the general was looking for him to do.

Could it be because of the casualty problem, one team suffered four casualties, although the battle was very expensive, but it is not clear how the above looks at him.

After entering the tent, Wu Zhongming met the general. The general was sitting behind a desk and looking at a map. When he saw Wu Zhongming come in, he beckoned, "Come and sit here." ”

Wu Zhongming was even more apprehensive in his heart, but he knew that he must remain calm at this time and not mess with himself.

"You've done a good job of going out to sweep up the remnants this time." The general opened his mouth and smiled, "But I heard that you met a noble man a few days ago?" ”

Wu Zhongming was shocked in his heart, he didn't expect this matter to reach the general's ears so quickly, "That person is different, the armies around him are guards, and at first glance, they have an extraordinary background, and they don't know the origin of the other party, so they didn't say anything, and they quickly left the other party." ”

The general nodded and patted Wu Zhongming's shoulder cordially.

Luck is the most important thing.

The merit of killing the enemy is never as important as being valued by nobles.

"Zhongming, you must know that although we follow the emperor's personal expedition, we are raised by our stepmother." The general said with a smile.

Wu Zhongming's battalion is the army of the Burmese Metropolitan Division, most of which come from the Ming army, and a small number of local elites are absorbed.

The Ming army is expected to have a scale of 500,000, less than 200,000 who really go to the battlefield, and about 50,000 who can face and kill the enemy, at most no more than 100,000, and the war exploits are precious.

It is such a trivial effort that tens of thousands of Burmese troops have been forced to head up, otherwise it is equivalent to coming in vain, and the hair has not been caught.

Wu Zhongming relied on Zhao Hong's care, and the great merit could not be shared, and the small credit for cleaning up the remnants of the army could still be guaranteed, and if everything went well, he could be promoted to a sentry officer after he returned, that is, a top grassroots officer.

Later, even if you can get seniority, you can get to the middle officer, if you can get military merits, it is not impossible to become a garrison or guerrilla general, as for reaching Zhao Hong's status, it is not something that ordinary people can operate, even Zhao Hong is not qualified.

The system is implemented by people, and the promotion is ultimately private.

There is a governor Zhao Hong behind Wu Zhongming, if it is an ordinary soldier, at most he will stay up to the level of a sentry, and his luck will be extraordinary to become a garrison, this is an invisible ceiling.

Everyone knows that Bai Qi is a soldier who made a fortune, but there has only been one Bai Qi in the Qin State for hundreds of years.

Therefore, the development of the industrial age and the great change in the social productive forces are indeed a huge change, the landlords and aristocrats have become factory owners, and many people can get ahead by hard work.

Just like when the Internet was just emerging, those emerging bigwigs were always people with backgrounds, but ordinary people did get more opportunities and stepped into higher positions.

However, it will be 60 years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and the Beiping system has become a yellow flower of yesterday, and the military class is becoming more and more stable, including the system, and the structure of the commercial bank is gradually solidified.

After 20 years of building a foundation and more than 10 years of rising together, it is difficult for small commercial banks to develop into large commercial banks, and those large commercial banks developed in the mainland and Goryeo will no longer give opportunities to rising stars.

In the aftermath of Siam, Burma and other regions, the local trading houses did not rise, but the trading houses in Goryeo and the interior wantonly annexed local interests, and even the war between the Japanese and the Japanese, and the trading houses in the two places were already eyeing the outside world.

The rise of the Korean trading houses was due to the favorable timing and place, and the merchants in the mainland either did not pay attention to Goryeo, or they had not yet changed their thinking, so they gave the Korean trading houses the opportunity to rise.

Goryeo's development was a great success, and a number of small merchants monopolized Goryeo's trade and became no less than the domestic trading houses, a new model that was already familiar to the people and would not be so fortunate in other regions today.

For example, in the Wa Kingdom, before the war was still being prepared, the major trading houses had already begun to privately divide local interests.

United, united, united.

The Burmese capital army is a partial army, and the camp is relatively simple, and the Beijing camp has long been broken by various forces, including representatives of the Daming Industry Bureau.

In short, Wu Zhongming's identity of these things is not accessible, and he does not understand the exquisiteness of them.

"The noble person you met was the emperor's grandson, that is, the second son of His Royal Highness the Prince, and now that second son has taken a fancy to you and named you to be his bodyguard, which is your blessing."

Wu Zhongming was stunned.

I couldn't help but open my mouth wide, and my heart was mixed.

It's hypocritical to say that you're not happy, isn't it because of the relationship between the prince, he can get the love of the emperor and grandson, and I don't know how many people envy it.

But Wu Zhongming also felt a little lost in his heart.

He has killed countless enemies and made great achievements, but he can't compare to the beckoning of nobles.

Seeing Wu Zhongming's dazedness, the man thought that Wu Zhongming was at a loss for measure, and said with a smile: "It's okay if you go to the emperor's grandson, remember to say more good things for us." ”

Wu Zhongming nodded stunned.

Zhu Neng led the front army to kill in all directions, Zhang Fu guarded the emperor, Lu Zhen and Zhao An were responsible for the aftermath, and Zhu Gaoxu led his nephew Zhu Zhanyong to clean up the battlefield and be ready to meet Zhu Neng's front army at any time.

In order to exercise his nephew and worry about his nephew's safety, Zhu Gaoxu can be described as painstaking.

Zhu Zhanyong, who was on the battlefield for the first time, was very excited.

Although he knew that he had not really experienced the war, it was more like child's play, Zhu Zhanyong accepted it very happily, and he was not stupid, so he had to gamble with his life.

With such careful arrangement, Zhu Zhanyong has indeed learned a lot.

How the army is arranged, planned, marched, and logistical, Zhu Zhanyong, who is personally involved, has a clear understanding in his heart, and has a layer of insight beyond talking about soldiers on paper, understanding that the real battlefield and army soldiers are not puppets, they are also people, and they are also afraid of death.

Wu Zhongming was transferred to Zhu Zhanyong's side, how could Zhu Zhanyong lack guards, unlike what he imagined, Wu Zhongming did not come into contact with the emperor and grandson, he was just a small soldier patrolling and standing guard.

After a period of time, Wu Zhongming couldn't help but regret it.

If you knew this was the case, it was better not to come.

But since he came, he couldn't regret it, so he could only be patient, stay up every day, and do his own thing.

If it's gold, it shines.

Zhu Neng's army and navy converged, nearly 100,000 troops rested in Kyoto, and after writing letters with Zhu Di, tens of thousands of elite soldiers were dispatched, as well as supplements from the rear army, and 100,000 troops were gathered to pursue the victory.

Steady and steady, and don't miss every opportunity.

Sweeping away the rebel forces around Kyoto has become Zhao An's duty, Zhu Gaoxu wants to stay by Zhu Di's side, Zhu Zhanyong, who can't bear it, begged his uncle, Zhu Gaochu can't shirk it, so he can only send Zhu Zhanyong to Zhao An.

Zhao An didn't dare to be careless, and he didn't dare to leave the emperor and grandson vacant, so he could only find some places that seemed safe for the emperor and grandson to carry out the military order of the sweep.

Coincidentally.

Either hiding in the local defeat, or the defeating from other places, happened to meet Zhu Zhanyong and his party, and the heavily armed guards guarded Zhu Zhanyong.

How could Zhu Zhanyong take those defeated soldiers who lost their armor in his eyes and personally led people to hunt them down.

One of them was bold, and he wanted to turn around and fight to the death, but the other guards did not react in time, but Wu Zhongming put a fire in the distance, and actually hit the person, and when Zhu Zhanyong rushed in front of the other party, the person had already fallen to the ground and died.

Zhu Zhanyong was not angry because of Wu Zhongming's good ideas, he was very self-aware, on the contrary, he smiled and praised Wu Zhongming again.

Wu Zhongming was also speechless when he saw such a character as the emperor's grandson.

Call him nonsense, but he knows how to measure himself.

Let's say that he is close to the people, this emperor and grandson does not have the slightest reading style that puts benevolence, righteousness and morality on his lips on weekdays, and he is quite heroic, but in fact, he does not bully the people.

With such a strange personality of the royal family, Wu Zhongming was very speechless in his heart.

But the emperor is very generous.

After going back, Wu Zhongming was promoted, although his position did not change, his rank was promoted from captain to sentry. Of course, Zhu Zhanyong does not have this power, but he opened his mouth, who among the generals would embarrass the emperor and grandson because of the matter of a sentry.

Well, for the sake of the sentinel, Wu Zhongming has a good impression of the emperor and grandson.

There are many guards like Wu Zhongming, although the emperor has never won them over, but the emperor and grandson do things recklessly, but they act in moderation, plus they are generous, and the rewards and punishments are fair, and the people's hearts in the army are getting higher and higher.

"Today's holiday, let's drink together?"

Zhu Zhanyong considered the hard work of the guards for many days, told the guards that he would stay in Kyoto during this time and would not go anywhere, and gave the guards a leave and let the guards take turns off.

Not only that, but he also rewarded each guard with ten yuan.

There are promotions, bonuses, and holidays, and which guard is not happy.

Like Wu Zhongming, Zheng Yu, who is also the second generation of military households, is from Shandong, one year older than him, and is also at the level of a sentry, and he is also a soldier transferred by Zhu Zhanyong from other armies.

The two are not only proficient in firearms, but also have a good command of bows and horses, have gone to school, and have a surplus of family wealth.

"Okay."

Wu Zhongming happily agreed, the two have similar backgrounds and have a lot of common topics, and they are very curious about what mainland military households like Zheng Yu are like on weekdays, and Zheng Yu is also very curious about the daily life of overseas military households.

The two were staggered, Wu Zhongming described the life of the overseas manor, and heard that there were many slaves in Wu Zhongming's manor, Zheng Yu was very envious.

Hearing that Zheng Yu's Laozi raised three maids and gave birth to seven or eight concubines, Wu Zhongming was also very impressed.

"When the war is over, I will go back to my station, and I will probably be promoted to one level." In the end, Zheng Yu said proudly.

"Coincidentally, no."

Wu Zhongming replied calmly: "The same is probably true for the younger brother. ”

Zheng Yu was stunned, understood that the other party also had heels, and laughed heartily, and the meaning of friendship was deeper. (End of chapter)
