Jicheng.

It's November.

The weather is getting colder and colder.

At this moment, in a camp, more than 100 soldiers are training their ranks.

Boom!

Trample!

'Knock' and take a step.

At a glance, in the entire queue, the most eye-catching is the colorful logo.

This is the identification of the Qin army to distinguish the ranks of each team.

The first row wears a green badge, the second row wears a red badge, the third row wears a yellow badge, the fourth row wears a white badge, the fifth row wears a black badge, and the sixth to tenth rows, the color cycles, but the logo will be changed from the head, to the neck, and then to the chest, then to the abdomen, waist, and then down.

The five people of the same army lined up in a pile, the captain stood at the head of the row, holding a bamboo pole in his hand, and the chief holding a gold (cymbal) and drum in his hand, standing aside and knocking on the 'gold' one after another, and with each stroke, the soldiers below took a step forward according to the rhythm of the sound.

When the rhythm is changed to two tones and one beat, Wu Chang lowers the bamboo pole in his hand, and everyone starts to run, the bamboo pole swings to the left, runs to the left, swings to the right, and runs to the right, and when it is changed to a drum, it has to face the direction of the enemy and retreat in an orderly manner.

When the gold and drum sound at the same time, it also means to sit down.

The sound of footsteps resounded throughout the camp.

However, the hundred generals who should have been in charge of training were sitting leisurely on the side at the moment, watching the soldiers below with great interest, but their eyes were more focused on the young man in the leader.

The young man was a little thin.

However, his eyes were aggressive, with a sense of authority, although he was only wearing a cloth shirt, but the sense of oppression given to the soldiers below was far greater than that of the hundred generals wearing painted armor on the side.

Then.

Another hundred generals walked over.

Looking at this excellent peer, I couldn't help but complain: "Chen Lao Er, you are really lucky, there are still people to help practice, I am unlucky, all of them can't stand up in the queue, usually practice, the planks and tiles are about to break." ”

"Or not."

"Lend this man to me?"

Chen Baijiang turned his head, glanced at the Baijiang, and said angrily: "Don't think about it, I won't borrow this kid, with this kid here, I have saved too much thought, but this kid sometimes seems to be a little too radical." ”

"Someone stood in the wrong queue the other day."

"He even dared to order the man to be dragged out and cut down."

"At that time, there was no execution, he actually drew his sword himself, and wanted to cut people, if I hadn't stopped him, I was afraid that the person would have been cut down by this kid."

"This kid is a ruthless character."

"But there is indeed a set of military training, normal soldiers, half-moon exercises, it is good to be able to stand in a good queue, and I, a hundred people, in the hands of this kid, can not only stand in a good queue, but also be able to enforce orders and prohibitions, like you are still practicing with planks and tiles, he has already directly used gold and drums to practice."

"The key is that these soldiers can really keep up."

"According to this progress, I am afraid that in less than half a month, we will be able to reach the standard of soldiers."

Chen Baijiang was quite complacent in his eyes.

It's all his work.

Another hundred generals on the side couldn't help but roll their eyes.

There was envy and jealousy in his eyes.

Who doesn't envy such a subordinate who can train soldiers?

What a lot of energy savings that this can give.

And the credit is theirs.

In addition to envy, the hundred generals couldn't help but say: "Seeing that this person is so good at training, I'm afraid that when I go to the north in the future, it will be easy to stand out, and when I come back, I'm afraid that the titles are above us." ”

Chen Baijiang didn't care and said, "What's the solution?" ”

"This man is indeed capable."

"I'm ready to put his name forward."

"Let him go to the army and start directly from the tun commander (fifty)."

"Ling Chen's second child still has this brain?" The hundred generals on the side looked at Chen Lao Er with a surprised expression.

Chen Baijiang sneered and said contemptuously: "Who do you look down on? It was before, and now is now. ”

"I've heard a news in the past few days that there may be another war on the Beiyuan side, and it is said that many soldiers have gathered."

"Is the news serious?" The other said in a deep voice.

"Not sure." Chen Lao Er hesitated for a moment and shook his head, "It's the news that my fellow villager friend sent back from the army, he only said that the army has started to move again recently, and such a large-scale mobilization, in addition to fighting, what else will it be?" ”

"But the news from the imperial court is not."

"I don't know." Chen Lao Er shook his head and said in a condensed voice: "Although our side is close, but after all, there is still a little distance, and we were all responsible for the construction of the Great Wall in the past, where can we find out the situation in the army, but if there is really a war, with this kid's ability, I am afraid that I can really go up quickly, and it is not a bad thing to make friends in advance." ”

Chen Lao Er's face was cunning.

Seeing this, the hundred generals rolled their eyes and said coldly: "The battlefield sword has no eyes, and I don't know where I will die." ”

"That's life and death, and it's not like we haven't been on the battlefield."

“.”

The two generals talked familiarly.

Han Xin trained the team meticulously.

He wasn't happy with the queue below.

Millions of people don't need to die, it's better to fight than ten thousand.

The battle of 10,000 people does not need to die, it is not as good as the struggle of 100 people.

If an army of millions cannot carry out the order, it will not be worth 10,000 people to fight together, and if the order is not carried out, it will not be worth 100 people to fight together.

He has been training the hundred people below for half a month.

It can be done in words and deeds.

If you relax a little, you will make a mistake in the queue, in Han Xin's opinion, it is still not enough to stand up, if Chen Baijiang did not stop himself from killing people at the beginning, how can the hundred people under him be so loose now.

However, Han Xin was still quite satisfied with the military law under the Qin system.

If the army is not raised, it will be wrong.

Before the army sets out on the march, it is necessary to use the law to standardize management.

The Qin army was stricter in the management of non-commissioned soldiers, and the life and death of soldiers depended entirely on the whims of the generals, not only on the battlefield, but also at any moment in peacetime.

Such harsh military laws were not unique to the Qin army.

It's universal in the world.

If he is really a hundred generals, he has the right to execute Shi Chang and his subordinates, but now he is just a small pawn like other soldiers, and he is just a pawn for Chen Baijun's officials.

It's noon.

The morning drill is over.

Han Xin's soldiers were all paralyzed to the ground.

Looking at Han Xin's eyes were full of fear and disgust, if they could, they would like to eat Han Xin alive, how could there be such a torment and torment, since the first day of coming to the camp, it has not stopped.

He even wanted to kill someone.

If it weren't for the hundred generals to stop it, I am afraid that they would have been killed.

Even if he was not killed in the follow-up, the hundred generals finally compromised and allowed Han Xinxing to be lynched.

Therefore, in this half month, they have not been beaten by Han Xin's bamboo board.

And the people also had words of suffering.

Han Xin naturally knew the resentment of these soldiers, but he didn't care at all, sweating during training was better than bleeding and dying on the battlefield, and what to say to these low-level soldiers?

What he wants to train is an elite soldier.

It is the true elite of a hundred battles.

Han Xin sat on the ground, scooped up a scoop of water, and drank it.

Not far away.

The other soldiers gasped.

Secretly, he cursed Han Xin quietly.

They didn't bite all the time, and after resting for a while, they also chatted with each other, and these soldiers who came to Jicheng were all 'voluntary'.

Some of them also talked about their reasons for coming.

I don't want to serve in conscription anymore!

The thin black young man laughed at himself: "Over the years, I have not stopped the conscription, and I was finally able to rest, but the government issued a notice that a warehouse would be built in Handan, and our county would levy hundreds of people, and I had a little grudge with the villagers, and this time I probably couldn't escape, so I simply enlisted in the army." ”

"I heard about it when I came."

The thin black young man lowered his voice and said to the people around him: "The reason why the government wants to repair the warehouse is to facilitate the next year to continue to levy the oral endowment, our county has increased the oral endowment every year, and many people are going to starve to death this year, if it is added again, there will be more people who are afraid of death, my family has long been out of land, if the government adds another oral endowment, where can I get it?" ”

"Later, I saw that the county posted a recruitment notice, and I saw that the conditions were okay, so I applied directly."

As for the process of young people applying, everyone is not very concerned.

What they care about is the levy of the mouth.

Someone worried: "Is your news serious? Does the government really want to levy additional taxes? ”

"If this is still levyed, how can my family still live."

"yes."

"Isn't this a human life?"

"Does this government still want us to live?"

“.”

Several people complained.

They were really shocked by the news.

The family is already living a difficult life, and if the government still levies it, it won't be able to survive at all.

The thin black young man pouted and said, "Can this still be fake?" Otherwise, how could the government have the heart to repair the warehouse? Isn't this a sign that there is a need for additional levies? Still."

The thin black young man suppressed his voice and said, "Many of us are discussing it in private. ”

"Slow down when you're building."

"Drag it out as long as you can."

"If the warehouse is not repaired, the government can't force it."

Hear the words.

Someone nodded, "That's a solution." ”

"That's a good idea."

"That's what you should do, it's no good to fix it so quickly."

“.”

Listening to the echo around him, the young man looked proud.

Be self-assured about your own information.

Especially the method he said, while being praised by others, his heart was very comfortable.

Listening to the young man's nonsense, Han Xin couldn't help but shake his head.

If he didn't know Qin Law, he probably really thought that what the young man said was true.

Under Qin's law, the amount of work to be completed every day is set, if it is not completed, it will be punished, less will be fined, more will be sentenced, this back and forth, but far more than the additional levy.

If anyone really believes this, it is somewhat unwise.

But

Does Qin Ting really want to levy a levy?

He is now recruited, and there is no other population in his family, but he has no worries.

But what about the Drifting Mother?

Rinsing silk wool is already tiring, and it can't make a few dollars, and it is difficult to maintain a daily livelihood.

Han Xin's eyes showed a hint of gloom.

That's when it happened.

Outside the barracks, there was a sudden sound of staggered footsteps.

Han Xinxin was stunned, and said in a loud voice: "The whole army is on alert." ”

I don't know if Han Xin's drill had an effect, or if everyone else was afraid of Han Xin, when they heard Han Xin's words, they really went to assemble, and then under the leadership of Han Xin, they walked towards the outside of the camp.

Dozens of people were lingering outside the camp at the moment.

They were slightly thinly dressed, holding 'dumplings' in their hands, and they swallowed so dryly, even so, these people were still talking and laughing, and when they saw that dozens of people suddenly rushed towards them, these people were obviously stunned for a moment, and there was a hint of vigilance in their eyes.

Many people even subconsciously look for things from all around to defend themselves.

Han Shin led the way.

When he went to the front, he originally wanted to question one or two, but when he saw the clothes and demeanor of these people, he couldn't help but slow down his tone and said, "Who are you?" Why is it outside the camp? ”

Hearing Han Xin's words, these people were obviously stunned for a moment.

"Is this a camp?"

"When we saw that this place was wide, we thought about coming over for a break, eating by the way, and then hurrying when it was better."

"We are building the Great Wall in Daijun in front of us."

"This is not the official government ordered some time ago to deliberately let me and other people who have served for five years go home, and we people are coming back all the way." The middle-aged man with a vicissitudes of life in the leader, seemed to be worried that Han Xin and the others would not believe it, so he directly took out the test pass he had with him.

Then he pointed to the 'to' above.

This is the proof of the end of their service, and there is also the government's evaluation of his performance during his conscription, if the official uniform does not give them a certificate of 'zhi', even if they claim to have returned from service, it will not count, and they will even be punished.

Han Xin took a closer look.

'Redundant recruitment, resignation is ready, to the future. ’

This is indeed the end of service.

Han Xin nodded, with a smile on his face, passed the test over, and said with a smile: "It seems that I am too careful, but I heard you say that you returned from Daijun just now, I don't know what the situation is over there?" ”

said.

Han Xin waved his hand at the soldier behind him.

Let them go and fetch a bucket of water to drink for these people who have returned from service.

Seeing that Han Xin was so considerate, everyone was also grateful, and they couldn't help but be kind to Han Xin.

The old man in charge said: "That's the situation in Daijun, but when I left, I seemed to hear that something happened on the grassland, but I was in a hurry to leave, so I didn't inquire much." ”

Immediately, he asked dozens of people behind him.

But no one knows.

They were forced laborers, and they had a lot of work every day, so they didn't bother to inquire about these things, and since they heard that they could go home, they had no interest in the affairs of the grassland, and they only wanted to get home as soon as possible.

Looked at.

Han sighed confidently.

But he still didn't give up and said, "What happened on the grassland?" ”

The old man looked helpless.

He thought about it carefully, and was not sure: "This is really not clear, it seems that there is chaos on the Xiongnu side or something, as far as we left, the government sent a lot of businessmen over, but I didn't hear any specific news." ”

"And these things are basically confidential, that's what our people can inquire about."

"The grasslands are in chaos on their own." Han Shin whispered.

His brow furrowed, and he kept pondering, really not thinking of what would happen inside the grassland.

However, he is keenly aware that if the grassland is really chaotic, there will be many grassland tribes who will take risks.

When the time comes

His opportunity to make a career may have come.
