The simple camp of the Ming army was pierced in the wilderness. Xu Jin, a hundred households, sat by the well, held an iron cup and poured two mouths into his mouth until the water in the cup was exhausted. Then he scooped a cup of water from the bucket beside the well and slowly wiped his helmet.

This is a standard Beiyang officer's helmet, with golden copper feathered eyebrows, and its wings cover both sides of its cheeks, and high blue tassels, which are very conspicuous.

The tassels were stained with soil, and the left and right were waiting for the hundreds of households behind to deliver gunpowder, so Xu Jin wiped it first.

Mr. Chang Ji of the Eastern Military Palace said in his book that the military uniforms and flags should be clean and tidy, and the weapons and armor should be majestic and bright, so that the enemy can feel ashamed before they even fight. Even if they occupy the enemy city, they can seize the hearts of the people.

Although most officers wondered where Mr. Changji, who had never fought a war, knew so many fallacies, since they said it, they just did it. No one knew whether the enemy could be ashamed of themselves, but before the war, watching the cold light of our own army formation flashed, and the colorful enemy formations could indeed boost morale for our own army, and it was easy to distinguish who was the real elite army.

Before the hundreds of households escorting gunpowder arrived, the sound of horse hooves came from outside the camp. The silent camp seemed to have come alive. Whether they were boiling water or gathering next to the bonfire to keep warm while melting lead, they all fastened their helmets and picked up their bird guns to climb onto the wooden wall as soon as possible.

The Baihu, who was scrubbing the bowl, ran up the wooden shooting wall of one and a half high. He saw that the general flag horse Bole under his command led two flag soldiers to come over, holding a rope in his hand and holding an iron can behind him. At this time, he was spreading the reins and untiing his pocket, holding a helmet, gun flag and shouting, asking the flag soldiers not to shoot.

Xu Jin frowned as soon as he saw this and carried the bird gun in front of him on his shoulder: "Ma Laoliu, Xu ordered me repeatedly, don't be captured, why don't you understand?"

"You two, take off your armor and bury it in the soil pit behind the camp."

"Captain and Captain!" Ma Bole, the chief bannerman, jumped down from the horse's back and held his hand in the middle: "This is rare, it's useful to speak Western languages!"

Xu Jin was awarded the scattered rank of Zhaoxin's lieutenant. The rank of military officers is equivalent to that of military rank, and the lowest officer is the Zhaoxin's lieutenant.

call.

Xu Jin breathed a sigh of relief, raised his arms and pointed at the general flag and said, "Thank you to bring my horse in."

Then he looked at the two flag soldiers outside in anger and said, "Execute."

"Abide by the order!"

The flag army outside the camp was ordered, and two flag armymen left the camp at the gate to assist, and walked around the trench with iron cans and walked towards the camp.

Seeing that things were powerless, the chief banner officer held the horse with his cap and walked into the camp dejectedly. Then, Xu Jin, a hundred households, gritted his teeth and slapped it on the back of his head, and then was pulled aside.

"I know you have a family to support you. Your parents are alive. Your elder brother dies early and your sister-in-law and nephew is left behind. Your second and third brother escapes fleeing famine and gets lost. Your fourth brother owes a lot of debts and runs away. Your fifth family robs water and breaks his leg. But can you stop being so short-sighted?"

"Fu Shuai has an order, don't take prisoners, don't have ransoms. We are not a benevolent and righteous army. The Ming Dynasty did not promote the nobles. Why? He eats well and lives well. He is more comfortable than us ordinary people when he dies. If he spends some money, he will get things done?"

Ma Bole explained embarrassedly: "No, lieutenant, he really understands Western languages... Don't I want you to make a contribution?"

"I'm just trying to make a fortune. If you kill a few more of these things in the future, you'll make a great contribution for me."

Xu Jin said, his tone slowed down: "I know that their nobles have a lot of ransoms. If you catch one, you can pay off all the debts your fourth brother owes. If you catch two, you will have to pay off the expenses for the second half of your life. The military government's rewards and punishments are really harsh, and the head level will not give you any silver rewards."

"We have been in the army for two years in Beiyang and one year in Dongyang. We have learned a lot of skills. We are about to go back in more than a year, and we have not made money even if we fail to catch a big battle. We are anxious - but aren't there any military achievements?"

"Compared with promotion, let me tell me." Xu Jin patted Ma Bole and said, "How much is this ransom?"

Ma Bole became less angry as he heard it. Finally, he sat on the ground, groped out of his pocket, took out a crooked Muye cigarette, lit it and said, "But this military achievements are too difficult. The head level is not a merit, and taking the armor is a merit. When I go back this time, Fu Shuai's army arrives. I don't know if I can catch up with the battle next time."

"The three hundred miles are about to go. Don't talk about me, the entire Baihu Department has only taken seven sets of complete plate armor with banners. They must also kill the armor-piercing ones, otherwise they will be considered a lie."

In fact, Xu Jin's Ministry of Households had already won the most. They were Yuan Zizhang and Wang Youlin's eighteen Ministry of Households. Together with them, five Ministry of Households cooperated with them to promote the situation. After fighting all the twelve battles, they killed seven nobles.

I won’t talk about the small encounters on the road, but they are all scattered soldiers. Even if troops gathered, a nobleman would only bring dozens or even hundreds of troops. Sometimes, when the nobleman saw that the situation was not good, he would ride on his horse and could not catch up.

As for the record and casualties, it goes without saying that the regular army will fight these scattered soldiers and raiders. Not to mention that sometimes they have the advantage of their troops, even if the troops are not superior, there are no support in most cases. As long as there are no artillery and few cavalry, Xu Jin, the Xiaoqiu Arrow, wasted gunpowder and was too lazy to release them. He arranged three rows of horizontal formations and swept across. He was considered elite when he was shot without running on the opposite side.

There were only two twelve battles. Once, the enemy's troops gathered together. They first ate a small flag arrow, then shot forward with a bird gun wheel and charged twelve steps until thirty-three grenades were thrown into their arms. Only then did they explode. The remaining more than 200 people were driven to the ground by the Beiyang Banner Army of the Ministry of Households and the defeated army crashed into the arms of another Household.

Xu Jin looked at the appearance of his subordinate general flag, looked around and then walked closer and sat down and whispered: "You shouldn't tell you this. You know, you know that you don't show off to me anywhere else. Fu Shuai, you really treat the flag officers recruited by us as brothers. Do you know that we are going to punish Queen Mother Francis for coveting Brazil, so do you know how to punish?"

Ma Bole shook his head confused: "Will you not let the redeem for killing their nobles?"

"Isn't that a problem? These armors, one of them is a nobleman, and they have their seals on them. The more the better. When they surrender and negotiate, all these territories will be cut off, and they will be crowned by the commander who holds the imperial gift of Shangfang Sword to control horse herding and growing grain on the spot."

Xu Jin sat next to Ma Bole, raised his face, squinted his eyes, and said, "Now do you know why they don't need to exchange for ransom? It is a celebration of the whole world. Those people who were plundered for ransom may be ruled by any of us in the future. Do you really want them to spend all their money for irrelevant people?"
