Chapter 146: Soldiers of the Guard
When the old ancestor came to the residence and asked if the soldiers of the Xiao Jiu Guards were going to be transferred from the general, Xiao Jiu shook his head and said: "The soldiers have appeared in the past few days, you don't have to worry, as long as the time comes, there will be everything." Let's now look at the barracks I designed. "Saying that, let the old ancestor come to the distance, which turned out to be a place for hunting and running horses.
The ancestors looked at the very wide playground, and there was a high platform, surrounded by a circular road, which surrounded the huge square, the playground, the rooms where they lived, the classrooms, the canteens and other buildings and the places used were all enclosed in this circular avenue, and the roads between all the buildings were paved with stone slabs, and when they came to the residence, they saw that the beds that had been set up were all along the walls on both sides, and every other step a bed was a passage with the head facing the middle, and the utensils on the bed were placed with their feet facing the wall, and they were placed neatly and uniformly, all of them were placed in a straight lineγ The old ancestor couldn't help but admire when he looked at it: "Beautiful and neat, this is the best and most magnificent military camp I have ever seen." Now it's up to us to see what kind of soldiers we can come up with. After looking at all the facilities, the two came to their residence, and as soon as they entered the door of the room where they lived, Xiao Jiu and the old ancestor were all stunned. The bed where Xiao Jiu slept had been dismantled by everyone, and he was building the bed again.
Xiao Jiu asked, "Isn't my bed very good, why do you have to build it again." β
Grandma smiled and said, "This is for the need, and besides, you have grown up, so you have to prepare a slightly larger bed for you, so you can just wait a while." β
Xiao Jiu walked into the yard strangely, and saw that there were several big boxes in the yard, old and simple, sitting on the big boxes, at this time four little girls dressed the same came to Xiao Jiu's side and said: "Master, we have already learned the exercises you taught us, and then teach us a few more swordsmanship like the two big sisters, it is really beautiful to dance." β
Xiao Jiu said: "Don't call the master again in the future." It should be called Childe. β
The little girl said: "My mother wants us to call us so, because we have been beaten by our mother, saying that you saved us, and we must not forget our identity." β
Xiao Jiu said: "Then let's say it, I don't like this title, I asked you to call it, or I won't teach you swordsmanship again." β
When the four little girls heard this, they all nodded. Because the age difference between the little girl and herself was not very big, Xiao Jiu walked around the ground and asked the little girl to remember the steps she walked. Then start practicing, and after you have to be very proficient, you will be taught swordsmanship. The four little girls began to practice according to the steps and footprints left on the ground.
Xiao Jiu returned to the box and sat down, watching the four little girls practice there. I don't realize that my mind is in peace. Gradually sinking into his body, he found that the energy in his body had begun to flow very slowly in the crystalline gaps. I couldn't help but feel happy. When I opened my eyes and saw that the four little girls were queuing, I couldn't help laughing, and after getting up and stepping on three footprints, I saw that my grandmother had already moved the box, and I followed them to my room. I saw Xiao Jiu come in. The teacher jokingly said, "We sleep on silver, and if you are the master, we sleep on gold." β
Xiao Jiu said very depressedly: "With such a big bed, how can I sleep, it's too big." β
Grandma smiled and said, "Who made my grandson so profitable." For the sake of your own results, you will be on the same page, and this is not the case with my bed. β
On this day, the old ancestor and Xiao Jiu came to the barracks again, and when they entered the big tent, they saw that the general was having a bitter face, thinking about his thoughts. Seeing this, Xiao Jiu couldn't help jokingly saying: "The general is thinking about his wife, grandpa, you have to do this for the elderly." The old ancestor Ha Lu Ha Da Lu laughed at the words, and looked at the general very interestingly and nodded.
After the general sat down the two of them, he said to Xiao Jiu: "The refugees have been basically arranged, I have arranged the basically adult parentless orphans into the barracks, and now I can't help it, there are still a large number of relatively small orphans, there is no way to arrange." Some of the refugees who are too young have already been adopted, and now the rest are basically half age, which is the age of naughty mischief and wild play, which is really a headache. β
Xiao Jiu said: "How many of these are there, and how many refugees are there this time?"
The general said: "There are nearly 700,000 refugees registered according to the register, and there are nearly 200,000 skilled people, and less than 30,000 people basically want to settle down, and they have clearly stated that they want to go back. There are now nearly 20,000 half-grown children left. β
Xiao Jiu asked in surprise: "Why are there so many children, this is too much." β
The general said: "This is mainly due to the many robberies encountered on the road, the most hateful is that Mengcheng, Qiqi, and Ziwu even robbed their own refugees, and they often came to rob, and if they were a little unwilling, they would kill people." Most of these children's parents have left in this way, and because these children are older, many refugees are reluctant to adopt them, which has become a problem for me now. β
Xiao Jiu said: "You will gather all these children and tell them that if they want to live and take revenge, they have to work hard and suffer hardships, if they don't want to, then give them up and let them fend for themselves. β
The general didn't understand for a while, and looked at Xiao Jiu suspiciously.
Xiao Jiu said: "After you eliminate these people who have no faith, I will pick out more than 10,000 people in them, and prepare to use them in the future, and see how many of them can be eliminated after the last." The rest of you will form a reserve team, and these will be your biggest capital in the future. For example, girls can form a magic team according to their physical attributes, and usually let the fire attribute help the blacksmith refine the refined iron, and the water attribute to help the watering of the farm. β
When the general heard that there was such a use of magic troops, he had an idea for a while. Xiao Jiu continued: "Please draw more than 20 grassroots officers for me, they must be young, educated, have complete military skills, and have strict requirements for themselves, and I will personally inspect them after they are finished." They are invited to be teachers and instructors, so be strict. β
The general asked with great interest, "Can I go to you?"
Xiao Jiu said: "Very welcome, but you can't leave the forbidden army, national turmoil is imminent, and it won't be long before you will be able to settle the matter in one fell swoop." β
The general said again: "Ancestor, do you have any other requirements for tonight's action?" I still don't understand why I won't be allowed to participate. β
The old ancestor said: "This is no way, you don't want to get involved in this matter now, just secretly get rid of unreliable people, and then wait and see what happens." Your main task now is to cooperate with Xiao Jiu and secretly complete Xiao Jiu's plan step by step. β
The general seemed to understand a little, in order not to attract the attention of others, he now had to keep a low profile and help Xiao Jiu in secret, so as to achieve the grand plan he said at the beginning. Moreover, it cannot attract the attention of all domestic forces and avoid domestic turmoil in order to achieve the goal of strengthening the country. The general nodded knowingly, looked at Xiao Jiu eagerly and asked, "You want to train these children, how long will it take?" Isn't it fast that I will give you the elite of the generals directly?"
Xiao Jiu shook his head and said, "If you are in a hurry, you can use this method." But not right now. The task of the forbidden army is very large, and not only should it not be allowed to draw people, but it should also continue to be strengthened. How many people are still in the camp, and there are enough 100,000 new soldiers? β
The general said: "The subordinate battalion is basically empty now, and there are only a few women with less than 100 people, and these are mainly the families of the fallen soldiers at the beginning. Because he has no children, no daughters, and no skills, he really has nowhere to go now. He sighed as he spoke, saying that if these people were not arranged well, they would cause him a lot of uneasiness.
Xiao Jiu smiled: "Don't sigh. Let them not attract anyone's attention, and come to the new barracks in my big yard one after another, I just need these people to take care of the children, tidy up the housekeeping, and cook, these tasks should be fine. β
The general nodded happily, and then said eagerly: "Tomorrow I will let them report to you one after another, and you will come to bring your soldiers in three days." β
After Xiao Jiu agreed, the general said: "How are you going to arrange the new soldiers, I am afraid that according to the results of my drill, it will cause you bad results in the future." β
Xiao Jiu said: "You practice first, we will come at any time, and we will talk about it when the time comes." β
As soon as Xiao Jiu and the ancestor returned to the residence, Xiao Jiu began to rummage in the book to find what he needed, the teacher and Rong Rong came over and asked him what he was looking for, Xiao Jiu gestured, and the teacher smiled: "How to compare the plants you said, you are not very good at drawing, just draw it, we will help you find it, won't it save effort." β
Xiao Jiu patted his head, and drew the shape of the herbs that he knew that the Dao might use, and just like that, with the shape he drawn, the teacher alone recognized dozens of plants. After a while, even the ancestors heard it, coupled with the adulthood of the aunts, there were not many people who didn't know, Xiao Jiu saw that these herbs that already knew the names of the Dao were basically able to maintain their own use, and he happily drew several copies of the names and shapes of these in his heart, and then went to bed.
The next day from early in the morning, some people came to report with the identity card issued by the general, the teacher and the ancestors according to their respective specialties, the personnel assigned their respective positions, with the arrival of these personnel, the logistics of the new military camp has begun to run, among which Xiao Jiu found a relatively young woman, in all the people who came to have some prestige, let the teacher understand, this is still the widow of an officer, and she is also a very learned woman, Xiao Jiu let this Yanju woman be the logistics director of the barracks, let her take the money to arrange, report to the teacher once a month, so that the logistics of the barracks began to run normallyγ Then another officer came, and said to the ancestor that it was sent by the general, and Xiao Jiu saw that this was the officer who followed the general when he was smelting fossil iron that day, and Xiao Jiu knew that this was a very capable person under the general, so he simply handed over the supreme command of the military camp to this officer and let him manage it.
On this day, more than 30 officers with 15,000 children made a detour from the bottom of the mountain in the wilderness to the new barracks. The old ancestor was puzzled, and Xiao Jiu said: "You see that all of them are uniform clothes, and these clothes alone will keep the general busy for half a day, which is really not easy." β
Xiao Jiu said to General Shufan, the head of the barracks: "Your soldiers have also arrived, let them arrange accommodation today, and start training tomorrow." (To be continued......)
