Chapter 73 The battle is coming
On the third day after Zhao Ming arrived at the military camp, the Huotou Army still got up very early and was busy preparing breakfast for the five thousand comrades.
Zhao Ming was not idle either, so he helped to carry water and chop firewood. He finished the work of several people by himself, and became more familiar with the people of the Huo Tou Army. Everyone also liked him, a big man who was very strong and quick to work.
After preparing the army's breakfast, Zhao Ming brought a bowl of porridge and squatted beside the school grounds, watching the soldiers perform with relish. The officers and soldiers who were training also knew that there was such a person in the Huotou Camp who killed a wild boar. He liked to watch them train when he had nothing to do.
It was very interesting to train Zhang Mingzhen's Zhejiang soldiers. There were two rattan players, two rake players, two big stick players, four spear players, one fire soldiers, and one flag-shaking team. It was a small formation, which seemed to be a mandarin duck formation, but I didn't see the iconic wolf silhouette.
In addition to such a small formation, there were pure bird gunners gathered together to train, as well as a small number of cavalrymen.
Zhao Ming was confused and didn't understand at all. What are the benefits of these small arrays and why the weapons and troops are configured in such a way.
Li Zhongming also looked at the soldiers on the school field with interest, as if they had aroused some past events, and sighed: "Ala Zhejiang is a place where good soldiers are produced. I remember when Ala followed Qi Jin and Qi General, Ala Zhejiang soldiers were more powerful than they are now."
Zhao Ming raised his eyebrows, looked at Li Zhongming, and said in surprise: "Old Li, you are still the army of the Qi family!"
When talking about the Qi family army, Li Zhongming showed his aura. He was just an old Zhejiang soldier and had a bit of the blood of the Qi family army, but he still said proudly, "Why, can't you tell it? Allah is the Qi family army!"
Zhao Ming hurried closer, "So, you have been in the army for a while?"
"Isn't that?" Li Zhongming grinned, and pointed at the soldiers training in the schoolyard. "All these soldiers are considered to be the juniors of Allah. When those thousands and hundreds of households saw Allah, they were all polite and called Lao Li."
Zhao Ming calculated with his fingers that if it were the Qi family army, it would be a bit old. He frowned and asked, "Then why are you just a hundred households?"
Li Zhongming was furious and picked up a stone and smashed it over, "This kid is heartbroken. He is eating for nothing. You dare to laugh at Alah, Alah beat Nong to death!"
Zhao Ming ran away, but ran into Ruan Mei, "What's going on!"
Li Zhongming stood up, "This kid provokes Shangguan, Ala teaches a lesson."
Ruan Mei waved her hand and said, "Stop making trouble, Lao Li, gather all the people who are not doing anything in the Huotou Camp, and then get the equipment and do it."
As an old fried dough stick, Li Zhongming felt really sharp. His face darkened, "Ruan Baihu, are you going to fight?"
Ruan Mei nodded, "It's been just a few days, hurry up and practice!"
Li Zhongming then summoned the Huotou Army and left more than ten people to prepare the meals. The remaining people, including the civilians, gathered together and went to Ruan Mei to get equipment.
In the camp, the atmosphere suddenly became tense. Even the Huotou Army and the civilians sent weapons. The fool knew that it was going to fight.
Zhao Ming couldn't help but feel a little excited. Li Zhongming poured a basin of cold water beside him, "How excited are you! If you really want to go to the Huotou Camp, you will lose the battle. Then you can run with Alla!"
Zhao Ming didn't care, "Old Li, no wonder you are old and you are only a hundred households, you are so bad!"
"Ala Nao?" Li Zhongming was angry and laughed, "What do you know? In the army, you can only be promoted after making meritorious things, and this means you will not receive any reward without merit. Just like the big man of Nong Zhao, who kills a wild boar, is amazing and is a talent. The general cannot promote you casually. If there are rules in the army, promote them at will, you will break the rules and cannot convince the public. Allah is in the Huotou Camp. It is Alah's turn to go to battle. The army will be over long ago. It is good to be able to save your life. Those who want to make meritorious things will die long ago."
Zhao Ming was stunned. He had never thought about this before, and wondered why Zhang Mingzhen was so stingy. It turned out that there was such a reason. The relocation of soldiers and officers must be based on their achievements. If they did not achieve success, they would break the rules. The soldiers would not desire achievements on the battlefield. Anyway, they would have the chance to achieve success if they had no achievements.
After listening to Li Zhongming's words, Zhao Ming felt something and learned a lot.
Zhao Ming said in surprise: "Old Master Li, isn't it difficult for you to be able to be a hundred households?"
Old Li showed a child-taught expression, "You understand! In a place like the Huotou Army, where it is difficult to make contributions, Allah can achieve hundreds of households, but it is quite amazing."
Zhao Ming said: "Then when will I need to be a big coach?"
Wang Dana, who was standing beside him, sneered and interrupted, "Stop dreaming. Old Li has been recruiting for more than 30 years, and now he has only one hundred households. Nong still wants to be a great general, so he just has two words - there is no chance!"
As he said that, he continued to count on his fingers for Zhao Ming, "Big man, Nong is only a small flag now, and there are also the general flag, the deputy households, the 100 households, the deputy thousand households, the garrison, the chief officer, the guerrilla general, the deputy general, the general. Nong calculates by himself, and he will be the general. If he gets into the thousand households, the ancestral grave will smoke."
Zhao Ming widened his eyes and said, "Mom, it's still so far away. I won't be the boss in the next life."
"I understand!" Wang Dana said: "It's not as rare as when the country was founded. Only those who were born as a general and had a chance to become a general after more than ten years."
After hearing this, Zhao Ming was silent for a moment. Wang Dana thought he had dispelled Zhao Ming's unrealistic fantasy, but Zhao Ming suddenly said: "Heroes come from troubled times. It is difficult to be promoted without fighting. But if the war is fought, there will be more opportunities and may not be able to soar into the sky!"
The military is strictly enforced and prohibited. There are various rules for the road to promotion, and the entire collective must follow the rules.
If you don’t fight, it is difficult to have the opportunity to show your strengths and to do your achievements. However, in the chaotic times, there is still a chance to put a lot of contributions in front of you.
Seeing that Zhao Ming was not giving up, Wang Dana said angrily, "There are not enough wars in recent years. I have defeated all the wars. What's the point? I'll soar into the sky, don't be shot down by an arrow."
The rotten wood cannot be carved. Zhao Ming ignored these two veterans. I was trying to catch all the guns and captured Nikan alive. It would not be too much to give a general a merit. When I find an opportunity, I have to find someone to repay the credit.
Zhao Ming gave the two a blank look with the expression of a sparrow knowing the ambition of a swan, thinking that after he was on the battlefield, he showed a poem to the two turtle grandchildren.
"Big Master Zhao, I've got the gun!" Ruan Mei urged.
Zhao Ming turned his head and it was his turn to get the weapons.
Zhao Ming took a bird gun, with rust and the gun holder was rotten. I am afraid that he would not be able to fire a gun, and he would immediately complain: "Ruan Baihu, this bird gun is rotten, and it is not easy to use it."
