Du Wei, who was far away in the imperial capital, couldn't hear the fat man's complaints, and it was even more impossible for Princess Louise, who was supposed to be "happy in the arms of the fat man", to know about it.
Du Wei was obsessed with coming up with all kinds of ideas to torture those officer cadets, but now it seems that after several months of torture, these cadets have greatly improved their endurance.
At least, Du Wei's vicious "emergency assembly" made those officers complain, and he was really ruthless to the dean.
I don't know how many nights, the young dean ran to the playground and blew the whistle to gather urgently. As a result, it took a quarter of an hour for the officers to rush to the grass field in a mess, some of them were barefoot. , Some people didn't wear coats, and even a few guys didn't even have time to put on their pants, they rushed out wrapped in a blanket.
However, as time passed, everyone was fully prepared to deal with this emergency assembly at night, and everyone remained fully alert even when they were sleeping. And Du Wei's emergency assembly could no longer make these guys scramble. They were already at the level where after hearing the whistle, Du Wei appeared on the playground fully dressed before he counted to one hundred and fifty in his heart.
Du Wei is still very satisfied with the performance of these guys - of course, there have been a few jokes. One time, a certain officer student had a dream at night, talked in his sleep, and shouted "emergency assembly". As a result, more than a dozen officers in the whole house were immediately moved when they heard the news, and within a moment, they rushed to the playground fully dressed...
result…
The guy who talked in his sleep was beaten up by his classmates in the same dormitory. After that, when he went to sleep at night, he stuffed his mouth with a piece of cloth. To prevent talking in sleep again.
In addition, Du Wei also revived an ancient tradition that the imperial army had discarded for thousands of years.
An army to battle history.
Du Wei is not a military expert, but Du Wei from his previous life. I have never joined the army in my previous life, but I know at least one truth: an army without history has no soul!
Therefore, Du Wei made a request, hoping that in the courses of the military academy, when those old officers gave lectures, they would introduce some glorious battle histories of the ace troops in the empire. As a result, after this request was made, everyone was at a loss .
Obviously, the imperial army did not have this habit.
However, Du Wei quickly found what he needed from the ancient archives of the military command... The empire's army did not have a history of war. Obviously, the founding emperor thousands of years ago. That is, another self once advocated this rule, but unfortunately, in the later years, this rule was abandoned.
A troop without its own battle history has no soul! Du Wei deeply believed in this. Being familiar with the history of the unit you are in can give soldiers a strong sense of belonging and honor to their unit!
Therefore, Du Wei simply set up this course by himself. He began to talk about the records of several ace elite troops that he dug out from the ancient military archives and made great achievements in the unification of the mainland war after the founding of the country!
"What is an ace army?" Du Wei said loudly, waving his arms in class, "It means having a brilliant record and a glorious history! Every soldier in the army is proud to be in such a great team!! When the flag of this army is displayed, when the enemy sees this flag, they will think of the opponent's glorious record. Before taking over the battle, the enemy's morale will be weakened by three points first!! Usually when soldiers introduce themselves to others , can also proudly tell the other party "I am a certain division or I am a member of a certain cavalry camp"!!"
After finishing speaking, Du Wei smelled the many "disciples" below, and said with a smile: "You are also troops from various parts of the empire. Can any of you tell me the battle history of the army where you were originally located?"
No one can tell.
Du Wei found an officer among the five hundred cavalry he brought to the imperial capital, and asked this guy to tell the history of his army in class.
In Du Wei's territory, Du Wei paid attention to this very early on.
so. When the officer of the Tulip family told about it. That kind of tone full of pride and pride. The sense of belonging from the heart when telling the glorious history of his army. Everyone can see it!
"I am from the First Independent Cavalry Battalion of the Tulip Family's private army!" This is the officer's opening words: "Our army participated in the first battle of the Duke's inauguration in the Northwest! The defense of Gilliat City! That battle, Our 1st Cavalry Battalion is the main force! We broke through the prairie people's army head-on! We drove those guys back to the prairie! We also participated in the annihilation battle of the rebels of the Northwest Legion! Our cavalry battalion was commanded by General Longbottom himself During the battle, we were in charge of sniping the right wing of the Northwest Cavalry! That time, 3,000 of us sniped the other side’s cavalry of more than 20,000, without allowing them to pass through our army! In the end, the Northwest Army was wiped out by us!”
At the end of the officer's speech, his face was flushed, and he said proudly: "In the northwest, who doesn't know the name of the independent first cavalry battalion of our Tulip family! Those unruly prairie people, those horse bandits, heard our name. Will tremble! Our cavalry battalion recruited recruits twice, and almost all those who tried to get in had their heads broken! Huh, but, if you are not a good man, don’t try to join our team!"
After that class ended, Du Wei looked at the officers with different expressions below, and said slowly: "See! This is the military spirit!
This is morale! Just imagine, everyone, in the army you were in before, in which army could the soldiers and officers have such a strong sense of morale and honor! If you can let the army under your command do this in the future, then you will find that every soldier under your command will consciously work hard for your army! Even without mobilization, when encountering a crisis, these soldiers will burst out with unparalleled fighting spirit in order to maintain the glory of the army they belong to! "
After the day's class was over, Du Wei was already very satisfied when he saw that the officers who went out had different expressions, and most of them looked pensive.
subsequently. Today is a rest day. According to regulations, these young people who have been holding back in the academy for many days can go out for vacation. You can go to the imperial capital to relax yourself.
As for Du Wei, he was about to go back to the office, but his subordinates came to report, and some guests came to visit the college.
Seeing his subordinates' strange expressions, Du Wei frowned.
But soon, he understood why that expression was.
The visiting place is a female guest.
At the gate of the academy, Du Wei met this visitor—Du Wei made strict regulations before, the military academy. No female visitors allowed! It is an iron law that no woman is allowed to enter this place.
Not even family visits!
Outside the gate of the academy, a luxurious noble carriage was parked. Under a big tree, a slender figure stood there and heard footsteps. The woman turned around and saw that it was Du Wei who was coming, she couldn't help being startled, and then the smile on her face seemed a bit forced, a trace of disappointment flowed from her eyes, and then she faintly revealed some information and uneasiness Come…
Such complicated eyes.
Du Wei didn't take it to heart either. Looking at the beautiful girl in front of him, Du Wei smiled and said, "Miss Ossie."
The person who came was Du Wei's future sister-in-law, the granddaughter of the Minister of Finance, Miss Ossie. Because of entering the college, Gabriel decided to postpone the coming-of-age ceremony, which also made the marriage of the two families postponed indefinitely.
Although the Minister of Finance has asked someone to express his anxiety to Du Wei many times, but since Du Wei has talked with his younger brother, he knows that his younger brother does not want to marry too early. Then he can't force it.
"I'm sorry." Du Wei looked at the beautiful girl in front of him, and said with a wry smile: "Gabri was dragged out by some colleagues after class. You know that. These guys have been holding back in the academy for many days. Said to be on vacation. They all ran away in a blink of an eye. Unfortunately, if you had come a few minutes earlier, you might have met him."
Ossie sighed, she was indeed looking for Gabriel. After all, the girl was in a mood. She knew that Gabriel was her fiancé, and after Gabriel came to the imperial capital, the two met only once at a banquet, and that meeting was very ordinary. Gabriel is polite, but not affectionate, to his beautiful fiancée.
Miss Ossie, who had been looking forward to it for a long time, was a little disappointed. However, in the following period of time, Gabriel sent people to send some small gifts to the Chancellor of the Exchequer's house from time to time. Among them are some novel toys, some precious flowers, some exquisite jewelry, clothes and so on...
Ossie is a very simple girl in essence, and, which girl does not have a spring? Although my fiancé was more than two years younger than me, after meeting, Gabriel was tall, handsome, and quite masculine, which made Ossie quite satisfied.
Moreover, many of the small gifts that were delivered to the home later were quite thoughtful things, and every time Ossie thought about it, she couldn't help but feel a little sweet in her heart.
Although the first meeting between the two was very ordinary, but this simple girl thought that her fiancé was the future Earl, and as the patriarch of the Luo Lin family, he must be a man who wanted to do big things. Such a hero would naturally not fall in love with his own children in public. The surface is a bit colder, but it can show the other party's calmness. These gifts behind the back also fully show the other party's care and sincerity.
You must know that in the aristocratic families of the empire, most of the marriages of noble children cannot escape arranged and political marriages. Therefore, it is the pure heart of every noble girl to have a happy marriage and love. Especially a clean girl like Ossie.
Although there is no emotional basis between her and Gabriel now, the status has been settled. The two are destined to be husband and wife, and the other party is so considerate. Ossie is also willing to get in touch with Gabriel more, so as to establish some emotional foundation.
Perhaps, for most nobles, the only way to get a happy marriage is: "Marry first, fall in love later!"
Today, it was Ossie who made a decision after much deliberation at home.
Because the next day was Miss Ossie's 18th birthday, that careful fiancé sent a gift to the Chancellor of the Exchequer's house last night. It was a very cute newborn puppy. foal.
It seems that every girl likes to keep pets. Although cats and dogs are too common, there are not many ponies. This strange thought. It makes the girl feel very fresh.
In particular, the person who sent the gift also sent a letter from Gabriel himself. The content of the letter is very simple, there is only one sentence: "Take care of this horse, and I will ride the horse you raised on the battlefield in the future!"
I have to say that the "playboy" Gabriel is indeed
He is very good at catching a girl's mind. Such a sentence fills the girl's heart with joy.
As a result, this Miss Ossie, who was honored as the daughter of a noble family, unexpectedly put aside the professional groom at home that night and took the brush with her own hands. Give this little pony a bath! He also hand-fed the horses!
However, she didn't know that although the letter was written by Gabriel himself, the horse was not sent by Gabriel at all, but... Du Wei!
As an elder brother, Du Wei has worried a lot about his younger brother! He couldn't understand it. The younger brother is so playful, and he knows how to please Yingying and Yanyan around him, but he is very indifferent to this beautiful fiancée.
Most of the gifts on weekdays were after Du Wei reminded him to remind his younger brother to build a relationship with his fiancée, so Gabriel obediently went to do it. Even in many cases, the gifts were sent by Du Wei, and then marked in the name of Gabriel.
As for Miss Ossie's birthday this time, Gabriel seemed to have forgotten it long ago. It was only after Du Wei reminded him that Gabriel lazily said that he knew, but then turned around and entrusted his brother to help him prepare a gift. He just threw his hands away and went to do what he should do.
In the end, Du Wei ordered to select a newborn foal from the top-grade horse sent to the imperial capital. Only then did the younger brother be arrested. Force him to write a love letter by hand.
Gabriel really deserves to be a playboy, although this "love letter" is only one sentence. But it's enough to lift a girl's mind! After letting Du Wei see it, he was also very impressed.
However, it's really hard to say how much sincerity is there in that bastard's casually written sentence.
"You don't seem to like Miss Ossie very much? This letter is too simple." Du Wei couldn't help asking his brother last night.
"Who said that, I guarantee that girls will blush when they see such words! Don't worry, I'm absolutely sure." Gabriel looked proud.
"I mean...you don't seem to take Miss Ossie very...not seriously." Du Wei sighed: "You don't like her?"
Gabriel thought about it seriously, and then answered honestly: "Yes, I think she... is too boring."
"boring?"
"Yes, it's a bit boring." Gabriel sighed, and said lightly: "When we first met, she didn't talk much, and when she spoke, she was very soft-spoken and cautious, as if she was afraid of saying or doing something wrong. It's like holding a hot pot in your hand, afraid of burning yourself, and afraid of burning others... It's so boring. I chatted with her a few times, and she answered whatever I asked, and she didn't answer if I didn't ask. Not to mention... it's suffocating."
Du Wei sighed: "This kind of girl is the best choice to be a wife, brother! Don't you want your wife to be the kind of frivolous women you see at banquets?"
Gabriel nodded: "I understand what you mean. But brother, I am still young, and I like hot girls now. As for Ossie, I will marry her anyway, and I will have time to spend time on her in the future. Now I don't So much time."
Du Wei could only be speechless about his younger brother's attitude.
This kid, everything is fine. He is willing to endure hardships and self-discipline. He has excellent training and courses in the academy. He is even more steadfast in his elder brother and has a smart mind. He is quite calm and stable in doing things like his father was. Too much game mentality.
But Miss Ossie didn't know all this.
She worked hard to feed the pony last night, and after hesitating for a long time today, she ran to the academy under the excitement in her heart, wanting to visit her fiancé and thank him for the gift in person.
"Oh... he's not here, then... let's forget about it." Ossie sighed, her pretty face was full of disappointment, but she stretched out her hand behind her back, which was a woven bracelet. Look at that The stitches are densely covered with high-quality materials, but the stitches are a bit rough, obviously made by this young lady herself.
"My lord..." Ossie said softly.
"Call me brother." Du Wei smiled, but sighed in his heart.
"Brother." Ossie blushed and gritted her teeth: "This, please...give it to him."
Du Wei took it and put it away carefully: "He will like it."
Ossie lowered her head, as if the loss in her heart could not be swept away by Du Wei's words, but she suddenly raised her head: "I, I almost forgot! There is another guest in the carriage, but he came to see you specially."
"I?"
Du Wei froze for a moment. At this time, the window of the carriage next to him opened, revealing a beautiful face with deep worry in his brows, but it was the lover of Paladin Hussein, Princess Louise. !
"Your Excellency the Duke."
When Du Wei walked to the carriage, the princess sighed and said in a heavy voice, "There is something very important. After thinking about it, I don't know who to tell, so I can only come to you."
Du Wei laughed: "Are you doing it for... the matter between you and Hussein? Don't worry, I have already talked about that matter, and I am sure to help you solve it..."
"No, it's not about this matter." The princess's expression was not at all relaxed, she gritted her teeth suddenly: "Please get in the carriage, this matter is not for others to hear!"
