Chapter 35
It was the night of May 10th, coming to this county, and the inner courtyard of the county was already running out of the county government, the night breeze was blowing, and there was a little chill, Zhang Xuanning walked to the bottom of the steps, Zhang Yi waited outside, and when he saw him come out, he stepped forward and said: "My lord, do you want to get on the horse?"
"No, let's go slowly!" A little drunk, Zhang Xuanning looked up at the moon, and sure enough, after a while, the county lieutenant Zhou Liang came out. \\.0М
"Brother Zhou, is the county commander in a hurry?" 12dc7de
"That's right, the virtuous brother has been in the county for half a month, usually just training soldiers, and ignoring the chaos outside the city, although the county commander still serves wine and food every day, but his heart is already anxious, this chaos is uneven, and his position is difficult to protect!"
In the past half a month, both sides have been interested in getting closer, but they have become much closer.
"It's very much, but if you don't get close to the soldiers, you don't know their feelings, how can you use soldiers casually, but, Brother Zhou, do you already know their feelings?" Zhang Xuanning has been in the position of team leader for nearly a month. By the time he had been in the army, he had basically become familiar with the situation in the army - fortunately, he was now only 50 people, and he was the top leader of the team, so he became familiar with it quickly.
The reason why I spent so much time was that one was to familiarize myself with the military formation, and the second was to know the people inside and outside.
Through silent observation and side knocking, the various actions and personalities of the important people around him gradually became clear in Zhang Xuanning's heart.
Tao Ji is old in the military, but he has two shortcomings, the first is that his family background is not high, and it is difficult to be promoted if his family background is not high. The second is that martial arts are not good.
In the age of cold weapons. Emphasizing that Zhiluo is a matter of the superiors, not to mention a team of fifty people, that is, a general of a thousand people, and he must have the martial arts to be sharp in battle, and he can only serve as the backbone of the army without this martial arts. Naturally, it is difficult to promote.
As for Zhou Liang, the county lieutenant, his family background and martial arts are not very good, but one thing is clearly pointed out: this person is good at training troops and organizing logistics in the army, and this is a very important talent! Moreover, from the exchanges, we can also feel that this person is depressed and unambitious.
Zhang Xuanning naturally deliberately interacted with him. And this person also has the heart to get acquainted with him, hoping to make a breakthrough in his personal life through this achievement, so the relationship between the two has grown by leaps and bounds.
This kind of "friendship", of course, is nothing more intimate than having common interests, and the union of Zhang Xuanning and Zhou Liang is almost a natural and natural thing.
"Haha, I caught up with Brother Xian, just to talk about this. This afternoon, I have received a report, and the dark room of bribery has already given me all the news, well, this is the ciphertext. County Lieutenant Zhou Liang touched his arms.
"Then what are you waiting for? go, go back to my camp, and weigh it carefully. Zhang Xuanning's spirit was shocked. As he spoke, the two laughed, turned on their horses, and went straight to the barracks, far closer to the camp gate, and the camp gate leaned on the torches, so they could see the people clearly, and immediately opened the door, and several rows of horses drew an arc at the camp gate, and rushed in. It wasn't until the field on the half-battalion that he turned over and dismounted.
A temporary wooden wall was to be erected around the barracks. The method is to start by chopping two rows of tree trunks. One row is long and one row is short, and half of the trunk is buried in the soil after the bottom is scorched, the long trunks are arranged in a tight row outside, and the short trunks are lined up in the inside, and then a wooden plank is erected between the two rows of trunks, which is divided into two layers, so that the part of the long trunk becomes a parapet, the upper layer of the wooden plank can be used by soldiers to patrol and post posts, and the lower layer can store defensive weapons and let soldiers rest. The same is true when camping, when the tents are facing each other, and drainage ditches are dug around the tents and between the camps. It is strictly forbidden for soldiers to wander between the camps, and tents are not allowed to run around in the camps. There are many hierarchical places in the army, and the cohesion is subtly maintained, but it also makes him learn for some days, and he has to sigh that there is learning everywhere!12dc7de
But at this time, regardless of these things that he had already seen, when he walked into the room, Zhang Xuanning couldn't wait to light the candle himself, seeing this, the county lieutenant Zhou Liang also smiled in his heart, knowing that he was also a little anxious, so he took out the documents.
In the candle flame, Zhang Xuanning's gaze swept over, and he didn't have much time to smile.
"Wang An has no food?"
"Exactly, he seems to know the opportunity, knowing that the virtuous brother's cavalry is coming, all of them are elite, and he doesn't dare to confront head-on, and has been cowering and avoiding the mountains and forests, or he just wants to lure the virtuous brother into the mountains and forests, and choose a place to resist it, and now the virtuous brother is not moving like a mountain, even if he is willing to endure it, the lack of food also makes his belongings unbearable, it is originally a rabble, how can he order a single-minded order, and there will be civil strife!"
"When are they going to fight?" Zhang Xuanning smiled: "There are thousands of displaced people, how many days can they live with land and grain? ”
"That's it, this person is only more than ten years old, in the grass and wilderness, and my county soldiers have fought many battles, each other has won and lost, selfishly thinks, this person still has some talent, it's a pity!" After a pause, the county lieutenant Zhou Liang said again: "The grain has been exhausted, just between these two days." ”
Several people rose in the grass, and in the past three years they have fought with the government, and they have climbed to the position of the head of a thousand people, and they have recruited soldiers to participate, this person should not be underestimated!
It sounds easy, but as long as you really think about it now, a group of terrorists can fight in key areas of the imperial court for three years, from scratch, and rise in the suppression of the military and police, you will know that this person is indeed a young hero.
sighed at the moment: "It's a pity." ”
But it's a pity that his official position is too low to keep this kind of leader, and if you think about it, you know, can a person at the level of a criminal police captain protect a terrorist?
Otherwise, this person can be recruited, this kind of talent who can struggle in life and death is quite valuable, and with a little training and training, he may become a general of one party.
"Is it reliable in the dark?" although he knew, but at this time, he couldn't help but ask.
"Reliable, these people, are all plotting chaos, and the family did not have time to evacuate, I was captured, should have been beheaded, I thought it would be useful, and secretly crossed it out, claiming that it had been beheaded, but contacted it, and allowed them to be exempted, and let them be secret, one person may be fake, three people and four people speak in unison, presumably it can't be fake. County Lieutenant Zhou Liang sneered and said: "Moreover, there is a side branch of the Zheng family, a large family in the county, although the Zheng family is deeply rooted and cannot be pulled up by us, but there are children who are cut off from thieves, which is also embarrassing, and I also got in touch." ”
"Oh, who is this man?"
"Zheng Dan, I have read the book, and Wang An has taken a fancy to him, so he is tied up to be a military advisor! Wang An really has great ambitions, if he not only absorbs soldiers, but also wants to absorb soldiers, he also wants to absorb soldiers, maybe he also hopes that the government will take the opportunity to deal with the Zheng family, the Zheng family is deep-rooted, the family has clan soldiers, once it is broken, the county will be chaotic!"
"Yes, then, Zheng Dan, what will happen in the future?"
"Although it is forced, after all, it is difficult for the clan to deal with itself if it is a thief and has a little to do with it. ”12dc7de
"Then follow me, my team, there are a few more people, as long as there are no more than ten people, no one can say, Zheng Dan is better to join the army with me, if it is good, there is also a future, not good, after a few years of rumors, you can also go back, well, fighting in the army, it is inevitable that there will be losses, and afterwards, I will also select some backbone of the township soldiers to enrich it. ”
"It's easy, I can say yes, but I'm afraid you may not see it. ”
Zhang Xuanning saw that he responded, and smiled: "Within ten steps, there must be fragrant grass, although the township soldiers are weak, among the hundreds of people, select a dozen people, and they can be warriors." ”
However, in this case, whoever the virtuous brother fancies, I will immediately assign it to you! The county lieutenant Zhou Liang said in his mouth, discussed it a little more, and saw that the situation was generally decided, and then said goodbye to Zhang Xuanning.
Zhang Xuanning looked at the figure of the county lieutenant Zhou Liang walking away, and did not move his eyes until the county lieutenant Zhou Liang disappeared outside the door. After waiting for a while, he turned to Tao Ji who was following him and said, "What do you think this person is trying to do?
"County Lieutenant Zhou Liang is also a member of the Zhou family, and his attempt is nothing more than to get a few points of military exploits in order to be promoted. ”
"I don't doubt that he is rebellious, but this is the secret. ”
"I don't think there's anything wrong with what Master Zhou said, besides, even if there is any mistake, we can also break the trick and kill it happily. ”12dc7de
Zhang Xuanning thought for a while, nodded and said, "Well, it's me who is too worried." ”
In his heart, he praised Taizu's class theory of origin, although this was suspected of wrongful killing, but it could indeed dig for gold.
The government used the gate lords, and the rebel army used the rebels, all of which were relatively reliable. 12dc7de
Whether it is the Zheng family or the Zhou family, they are all local clans, with thousands of children, they basically have land, food, connections, clan soldiers, and even official positions and power, who will be involved with the mud legs to rebel? Not afraid of implicating the entire family? Moreover, even if there is an incident, its strength should be the head, and it is absolutely impossible to turn to the grass people's minds. 12dc7de
However, this is not a generalization, when an army of rebels is able to occupy a place. These wealthy landlords had a painful choice - to give in or even join the rebels. Or is it the death of the people?
Therefore, the rebels may also draw them as officials, although they are unreliable, but they must be used if they do not trust, and in the case of knowledge monopolized by the landlords, if they are to be completely reliable, I am afraid that there will be no one to use at once. The key is that they must not be allowed to infiltrate a single soldier in the army.
"Your Excellency...... My lord!" Seeing Zhang Xuanning pacing continuously, he entered into contemplation, and after waiting for a while, Tao Ji had no choice but to call softly.
With the scream, Zhang Xuanning woke up from his contemplation, knowing that he had been affected by the evil qi again, and he was so distracted that he didn't know where he thought of it. Only then did he immediately say, "Have all the horses in the army eaten fine grain?"
"The wheat bucket is thick, and the horsepower is enough. ”
"The barracks are closed, and the militia is fully taken over by me, and it must be handled in accordance with military regulations, so there is no need to strengthen training these days, half of the training in peacetime, to relieve fatigue, and not to go out. so as not to leak the news. Zhang Xuanning ordered: "The county lieutenant Zhou Liang will preside over the grain and grass in the county, and we must also send people to supervise, so we don't have to take care of it in peacetime, as long as the supply is guaranteed. ”
Tao Ji immediately recorded it, and when he was done. He came up again, and then said: "Your Excellency, rest assured, the whole army has already known the commandment, and no one will dare to act without permission. ”
After thinking about it, he said, "Call me Guo Posuo." ”
Guo Posuo is a warrior in this township group, although the family inheritance method is very poor, but he has also practiced since he was a child, and he has the ability to be promoted to 2dc7de
It didn't take much time for Guo Posuo to come to Zhang Xuanning and stand quietly in front of Zhang Xuanning. Waiting for Zhang Xuanning's order, he felt the hint of fierceness in the breath in his body. He said coldly: "Guo Posuo, I will appoint you as the temporary leader of the six militia groups, are you willing?"
Zhang Xuanning's voice was faint, but when he heard Guo Posuo's ears, it was like thunder, he was from a humble background, but he had learned a little martial arts, and he had never used it, this time, it was to give him a chance.
As a temporary team of 50 people, although the militia will be disbanded afterwards, as long as this battle is won, maybe he will be rewarded, and he will be transferred to the official officers and soldiers, even if he is a captain, he immediately knelt down and said: "The villain will live up to the trust of the adult!"
"Needless to say, if you win the battle like this, I can reward the officer for military merit, but join the army with me, I will let you be my personal soldier first, and then give you a captain when I have the opportunity, although the official is small, it is also the starting point. ”
"The villain understands, the villain understands, the villain must be loyal to the adult!"
Zhang Xuanning's personal soldiers at this time were only allowed to have five people, one one, two and three, and two more people could be added.
"Okay, you go down!"
After he went out, after a while, Zhang Xuanning felt that the evil qi was slowly boiling, and gradually subsided, Mayday, it was the plum rain, so it was the moon just now, and now it was the lead gray clouds, the clouds moved heavily and slowly to the south, he looked up at the mysterious and fickle sky, silent.
A cold wind hit, he subconsciously touched his broken saber, his first battle in the real sense, about to begin, whether it is a victory or a defeat, no matter what, it is of considerable significance, although he does not believe that he will capsize in this kind of small battle, but the particularity of the war is here - who knows the way forward!
Again, he realized the smallness of human beings and the strength of fate, fortunately there is still a near-supernatural power of martial arts in this world, if it is in the ordinary world, it is even more difficult to resist the destiny of heaven!
Standing in front of the door for a while, a gust of wind blew, a few points of drizzle fell, the May rain, still with a little coolness, a little step back, I saw that the rain began to fall continuously, but at this time, the barracks had already slept, only the patrol team had to patrol in the rain.
Seeing them running in front of him, he didn't care, and at this moment, Tao Ji, who had already conveyed the order, also came over, and he also entered the room, standing under the porch, and his heart was heavy.
He joined the army in the first year of the Great Cause, he was only nineteen years old at the time, and he has been in the army for eleven years.
Eleven years of military camp life, deputy team is right, originally thought that after the team was killed, he took over, but unexpectedly sent a new team positive, if there is no slightest complaint, it is a false place, but, who called him has no relationship, and no real martial arts
There are too many people like himself in the army, and if you want to get ahead, you have to rely on one and be a confidant, not to mention that it is too far away, it is difficult for you to rely on it, so rely on this team, at least he still has enough connections and martial arts, and the possibility of promotion is very great, and he may be able to rise to the top.
Thinking of this, he stepped forward and said respectfully, "My lord, everything is ready. ”
"Well, now the cavalry is brave, and the militia has been roughly trained, although it may not have much effect, but it is also worthy of a battle, this time it depends on whether Zhou Liang can lead them out, once it is introduced, the big thing will be decided, but presumably, for the sake of food, it must also be warned, but it is just a matter of a few days. Muttering, Zhang Xuanning suddenly asked, "We are victorious, how to deal with the rebellious family?"
"Men are all beheaded, under the age of eight can be exempted, women are all official slaves or military prostitutes, adults can choose a few, others, etc., we can also get the money from the local yamen, which can be regarded as our remuneration. Tao Ji didn't know what he meant, but said it flatly.
This kind of cruel treatment is common in this era, in fact, it may not be all beheaded at this time, because since the Wuhu, the imperial court still attaches great importance to the population, but for generations of slaves, women are prostitutes, which is not necessarily much better than death. 12dc7de
Zhang Xuanning didn't want to comment, and he couldn't change it, so he felt the voice of the man in the army at the moment, and said: "It's late at night, you just go back to rest, tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow, there will be a battle!"
