Chapter 98 Receiving the Skillful Soldiers The Old Man at the Head of the City


Wang Zhiyuan and two soldiers were waiting anxiously for Li Deliang in the post house. \ "Probably not.

Wang Youyi is a man who can't bear any profit.

I have already promised him that after borrowing troops to judge, I will give him five heavy cannons.

Even if he doesn't give me face, for the sake of these five heavy cannons, he will Agree" After hearing this, another soldier was shocked and said, "Oh my God, Wang Youyi is too greedy.

He wants us to give him five heavy cannons."

"As long as Wucheng is still our territory, five heavy cannons will be five.

We can do this deal.

With the land, we are not afraid of not being able to dig out the treasure.

Think about it.

That day at the foot of Huashan Mountain, no matter how valuable the heavy artillery is, in a critical moment, it It’s just an object.

If you should throw it away, you have to throw it away.

Just buy it in the future.

As the saying goes, if you keep the green hills, you won’t be afraid of running out of firewood.”

"My lord, I just don't know how long it will take before Wang Youyi can bring over the borrowed soldiers," the soldier continued.

At this moment, the rapid sound of horse hooves came from outside the post house, and it became clearer and louder, heading towards the post house.

"My lord really said that Cao Cao and Cao Cao are here," the soldier said just now.

"Let's go and take a look outside."

After saying this, Wang Zhiyuan led two soldiers out of the post house.

Sure enough, as the soldier said, Li Deliang rode towards the post house on a tall horse with more than a dozen guards.

"Brother, you have a wonderful plan.

How did you know it was brother coming?"

Li Deliang got off the horse, motioned to his men to hold the horse, saluted Wang Zhiyuan and said with a smile.

"As a brother, don't make fun of my younger brother.

My younger brother is just looking forward to Master Wang and crossing the threshold."

Wang Zhiyuan smiled bitterly.

"My dear brother, there is no need to worry.

The troops and horses lent by the Lord Commander to your army have been gathered outside the city.

Please come with my dear brother to count the men and horses," Li Deliang said.

When Wang Zhiyuan and the two soldiers heard that they were going to pick up the troops, they all smiled happily and followed Li Deliang happily, riding to the outside of Pingcheng.

In a large open space outside Pingcheng City, people from an infantry battalion were densely scattered.

Seeing the soldiers, Wang Zhiyuan and the accompanying soldiers became energetic and whipped them hard several times.

The horses ran harder and rushed straight to the open space.

Li Deliang followed behind, shouting, "Brother, please slow down and wait for me."

Wang Zhiyuan and the two soldiers could not hear him.

When they reached the open space, one tightened the reins and stopped suddenly.

The horse looked up to the sky and roared.

Only then did Wang Zhiyuan see clearly. , the soldiers serving in the open space were all wearing shabby military uniforms, listless, and most of them were in their thirties.

A veteran saw Wang Zhiyuan's superb equestrian skills and was wearing standard clothes.

He stepped forward and saluted curiously, "May I ask this lord, how can you, a young man from the Pingcheng New Army, look at this lord's face?"

"Really?

I am a member of the New Army in Wucheng.

Did your Excellency tell you about going to Wucheng to assist in the battle?"

Wang Zhiyuan asked.

"We soldiers who don't fight are not just paid, no matter who the new army is," the veteran said.

"What are you doing in the infantry camp?"

Wang Zhiyuan asked with a smile.

"To be honest, sir, I have always been a cook since I came to Pingcheng New Army," the veteran said lazily.

Wang Zhiyuan looked at the veteran again.

He was wearing an old military uniform covered with dust.

He was carrying a large pot on his back, a "Hanyang Made" rifle on his shoulder, and a short rod-like thing wrapped in a cloth bag next to him.

"You still smoke dry tobacco and get such a big tobacco bag?"

Wang Zhiyuan stretched out his hand and touched the thing wrapped in the cloth bag.

This touch shocked Wang Zhiyuan.

The accompanying soldier saw that Wang Zhiyuan looked wrong, and came over and asked, "Sir, is there anything wrong?"

Wang Zhiyuan did not speak, but motioned to the soldier to touch the veteran's cloth bag as well.

The veteran saw the trick and hurriedly and embarrassedly smoothed things over and said, "Your Majesty is right, we are a bunch of brothers who all like to have nothing to do and smoke dry cigarettes."

The soldier who touched the bag wanted to ask questions, but Wang Zhiyuan stopped him.

Wang Zhiyuan asked again, "Did you just say that a bunch of brothers are in the same infantry battalion with you?"

"Sir, we were originally scattered in several battalions.

Yesterday, the higher-ups ordered that experienced soldiers be removed from all battalions and sent to Wucheng to assist in the battle.

Now we brothers are all together."

The veteran is not worried.

Said slowly.

"What are you and my lord talking about?

Why don't you get out of the team?"

Li Deliang appeared behind Wang Zhiyuan at some point and shouted harshly at the veteran.

"Master Li, let him finish what he said," said the soldier who touched the bag.

Li Deliang said angrily, "A cook, what do you have to ask?"

After saying that, he ordered the bugler to blow the assembly horn.

The soldiers were lying on the ground basking in the sun.

Then they lazily stood up and faced the bugler. collection of directions.

Half an hour later, the soldiers gathered.

Li Deliang lectured in front of the formation, "Brothers, from now on, the 5th Infantry Battalion in Pingcheng will be under the command of Wang Zhiyuan, Commander-in-Chief of the Wucheng New Army.

Please give Wang Biao-Tong a lecture."

Wang Zhiyuan stood in front of the queue and preached impassionedly, "At this time of crisis in Wucheng, the brothers understand the righteousness and stand up.

It is really a blessing for our Qing Dynasty.

After the rebellion is suppressed, all brothers will There is a reward” When the soldiers heard that there was a reward, they all became energetic.

After Wang Zhiyuan finished his training, he said to Li Deliang, "Brother Li, time is precious.

I am really worried about the brothers in Wucheng.

Can you leave for Wucheng now?"

Li Deliang said cheerfully, "You are now the commander of the 5th Infantry Battalion in Pingcheng.

It is of course up to you to decide when to set off."

"Then let's say goodbye, little brother," Wang Zhiyuan saluted Li Deliang and said.

"Well, dear brother, take care of yourself and wait for your good news," Li Deliang said in return.

After Wang Zhiyuan said goodbye to Li Deliang, he immediately mounted his horse, drew his sword, and ordered the entire battalion of soldiers, "Let's go to Wucheng immediately."

On the way, the soldier who was touching the bag asked, "Sir, why didn't you let me ask again just now?

I just want Li Deliang to know that we are not fools.

What kind of soldiers did he and Wang Youyi lend us?"

Another soldier asked, "What kind of soldier?"

"If I tell you, you won't believe it.

Guess what I touched?"

said the soldier who touched the bag.

"Just tell me and stop tempting me.

What did you touch?"

Wang Zhiyuan interjected and said, "I touched a big smoking gun."

"Ah, isn't this the Smoke Soldier?"

"Your Excellency, you won't let me say anything because of my temper.

I have to ask Li Deliang to give me an explanation," the soldier who touched the bag said angrily.

"And what you don't know is that Wang Youyi also ordered Li Deliang to use all the old, weak, sick and disabled in the existing battalions to borrow troops, and even created a fifth infantry battalion that Pingcheng had never had before.

It was really shameless.

"Wang Zhiyuan said.

"Sir, we don't want these old, weak, sick or disabled people any more."

The two soldiers accompanying him were filled with anger.

"The old, weak, sick and disabled are still soldiers after all.

As long as they are commanded properly, they can also display more combat power than usual," Wang Zhiyuan said.

"Hey, sir, we brothers are all rough men, but you still see far," said the soldier who touched the bag.

"Sir, if you need us to do anything, just give us your orders."

Another soldier said sincerely, admiring Wang Zhiyuan from the bottom of his heart.

"These old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers are indisciplined.

I'm worried that some of them will escape halfway," Wang Zhiyuan said.

"Sir, what should we do?

There are only three of us in the new army in Wucheng.

If they insist on running away, there is nothing we can do." said the soldier who had just asked Wang Zhiyuan to give him casual orders.

"Do you know why there are so many military positions in the army?"

Wang Zhiyuan asked.

The two soldiers accompanying him shook their heads.

"The authority of the generals is distributed layer by layer.

In this way, every soldier ostensibly obeys a small official like an officer.

The small officials convey the meaning of the superiors and the orders of the generals.

It’s not difficult to implement,” Wang Zhiyuan said.

"Sir, what should we do?"

another soldier asked.

"You and the general manager in the camp should write a piece of paper," Wang Zhiyuan ordered.

"What do you want the paper for?"

the soldier asked.

"Didn't you say that you should just do whatever the Lord tells you to do?

Why are you talking so much?"

the soldier who touched the bag choked.

"I'm just asking, I'm going to find some paper right now."

After the soldier finished speaking, he rode his horse to the end of the infantry battalion.

I found the general affairs officer and brought him the Four Treasures of the Study.

"Sir, here it is.

I asked the general officer just now.

This fifth infantry battalion is just as expected by your Excellency.

It has no structure and only has enough people.

Even the officers at all levels in the battalion have not had time to accept their fate.

Everyone has Ranking is based on seniority," the soldier said when he came back.

"Wang Youyi asked Li Deliang to randomly gather the number of people in such a short time.

There will definitely be a situation where it is difficult for all soldiers to have officers."

After Wang Zhiyuan finished speaking, he picked up the pen and wrote many letters of appointment for officers at all levels.

He took out his seal from his pocket and stamped it clearly. on every letter of appointment.

"Sir, why are you writing so many letters of appointment?"

asked the soldier who took back the Four Treasures of the Study.

"I now appoint you two as supervisors of the army.

During the rest, I will announce to everyone that as long as the brothers in the camp have real abilities, they will be appointed by me to suppress the rebellion in Wucheng and be rewarded according to their official positions."

Wang Zhiyuan commanded.

"I will obey your military orders," the two soldiers replied in unison.

According to the method Wang Zhiyuan told the two new supervisors, during the march, a group of soldiers with some talents were indeed selected.

After receiving the letters of appointment, the orders of the new supervisors were naturally carried out.

There were veterans who wanted to escape camp on the way, but there was no When the two supervisors took action, the newly appointed sentry officers captured them all.

To everyone's surprise, a group of old, weak, sick and disabled arrived in Wucheng as planned.

Outside Wucheng, another team appeared at the same time, a fully staffed infantry and artillery battalion.

Wang Zhiyuan ordered someone to bring a telescope, and he could clearly see that the leader of the army was an unfamiliar officer with a military rank.

Next to this officer, there was another person riding a horse, which was covered by a cloak blown by the wind.

Face.

After the wind stopped, Wang Zhiyuan could see clearly that the man was Cao Yi, whom he had not heard from before.

Wang Zhiyuan shouted excitedly on his horse, "Master Cao is back, Wucheng is saved":
