"What general?" Qi Datou looked at Zhang Liao and others in disbelief.
"General En!" Zhang Liao nodded, "The two of you are now the General of the Thousand and the General of the Hundred in my Xiliang Cavalry. Qi Datou, you are the General of the Thousand, and Yan Xiaoliu, you are the General of the Hundred. Yan Xiaoliu, take good care of yourself." Your assistant Qi Datou, let him not make mistakes, or I will ask you two." Zhang Liao said to the two.
"Ahhh!" Yan Xiaoliu was also stunned. When will he be linked to the word general? Although he is only a hundred-man general, he can indeed be called a general. No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat, and The Xiliang iron cavalry is an elite unit of the Yangzhou army, so the content of this hundred generals is still very high.
"Ah what! Why don't you thank General Zhang Liao quickly." Zhang Hu, who was standing beside him, kicked them and said angrily at them.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Qi Datou and Yan Xiaoliu were about to kneel down immediately. Yan Xiaoliu was fine, he hadn't put on his armor yet, but Qi Datou had already put his armor on The armor is half body, how can I kneel down.
"Okay, get up!" Zhang Liao looked at the two with a smile and let them do whatever they wanted. "After changing clothes, go to the military tent to find a civil official to register and register." Ordinary soldiers may not have such a benefit, but generals and schools need to register and register in order to have an official status.
"Yes, yes!" Both of them nodded in agreement, watching Zhang Liao turn around and leave, it was like a dream.
"I'm going to be a general, I'm going to be a general haha, haha, Qi Datou is going to be a general too!" Qi Datou was so excited that he couldn't speak, "Er Niu, I'm going to be a general, Ge Three. I'm going to be a general." Qi Datou grabbed a person and was about to say the last sentence. It's not very annoying, but a group of old brothers around him have to congratulate him with old faces, who will let him be a thousand generals. On the surface, he was respectful, but in his heart he scolded Qi Datou, the Qi Datou who suffered a thousand knives. What kind of shit luck did the generals fall in love with.
As far as he is still a general, he looks like the general in front of the gate (the general in front of the gate is talking about dogs).
Qi Datou messes around a lot, so he doesn't know that these bastards are cursing their mothers in their hearts, but he doesn't mind Qi Datou. That is, he will be a general after Qi Datou, and he does not remember the villain as an adult.
There is only one Yan Xiaoliu, who is happy to follow Qi Datou? Although Qi Datou is not as good as a general of a thousand people, he is still a general of a hundred people, and just now General Zhang Liao said that he wants to assist Qi Datou himself. This is the rhythm of letting oneself be a lieutenant general. Generally, under a thousand generals, there is no lieutenant general, and most of them are assisted by a hundred generals. But this assistant hundred-man general is the one with the highest official position in the thousand-man team except for the thousand-man general.
"Because I became a general, I will get more salary. With more salary, I can get little flowers. Hehe." Thinking of this, Yan Xiaoliu almost drools, this is because he has someone in his heart.
Compared with Qi Datou and the others who are happy here, on the other hand, they have a mournful face. Before that, Zhang Liao asked them to take off their armor and put down their swords, but some people didn't obey the order, thinking that Zhang Liao and Yangzhou were killing each other. Donkey, so there is no order. Now I know that the army has changed their equipment, and they are one by one. But he was dumbfounded, and now he didn't know what to do.
"General. General, I. Us!" A general of a thousand men took the lead, followed by a general of a hundred men, and a group of personal guards. There were more than two dozen in detail.
Zhang Liao saw them and stopped in his tracks.
"Come and take them down for me!" Before Zhang Liao could speak, Zhang Hu shouted at the people beside him.
"Yes!" Although they were all robes, they couldn't help each other. They could only look at the twenty or so people with sympathy. Some soldiers put on their armor and were going to take down these individual horses.
"General, spare your life, spare your life!" Now the twenty or so people really panicked. Disobedience in the army is really a big crime. Maybe it's going to be decapitated.
"General, please forgive me, we didn't mean it, we didn't mean it!" One by one knelt down, wanting to beg Zhang Liao's forgiveness.
The robes of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry over there were also a step slower. They didn't want to take down these brothers who had fought side by side directly, and hoped that they could be forgiven by the general.
"Why are you still in a daze, take them down!" Ge Jun also spoke, and the group of Xiliang iron cavalry had reacted, and they could only feel sorry for the brothers, and they were going to take them down.
"Forget it!" Zhang Liao, who has always been strict in military law and has a poker face in his later years, actually said these two words, which made the big guy stunned. It was precisely because they didn't react that these twenty or so people were all taken down.
"Let them go!" Zhang Liao waved his hand and said to his subordinates, the Xiliang cavalry obeyed and let them go.
"General, general, we will definitely listen to the general in the future. If the general tells me to go east, we will never go west." With a way out, these disobedient Xiliang cavalry knelt and kowtowed their heads begging for mercy.
"Take off your armor and put down your sabers." Zhang Liao said to the twenty or so Xiliang cavalry disobedient soldiers. Zhang Liao left after speaking.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Everyone smiled, thinking that Zhang Liao had forgiven them, they hurriedly took off their armor and swords, and prepared to change into new armor and weapons, but after waiting for a long time, no one brought the new weapons. and swords to their hands.
"General?" Headed by a thousand generals, this group of twenty or so people stood in the cold wind wearing only one underwear.
"Where is our armor and sword, general?" The thousand-man general stepped forward and asked a pawn who was transporting weapons and armor in the industrial area. At this time, the thousand-man general had already pretended to be very low.
"Your armor and weapons are there! They haven't been opened yet." The soldier in the industrial area pointed to the unopened box in the carriage ahead.
"Thank you general, thank you general, don't bother the general, we'll get it ourselves." The thousand-man general looked at the unopened wooden box over there, and now he keeps a low profile in everything he does, so he has to wait for someone to fetch it in person , Prepare to be a low-key man.
But when they were about to get close to the box containing the armor and weapons, they were stopped by someone, and the soldiers of several industrial areas drew out their swords. stood in front of these people.
"This general, who are you?" General Qian Ren asked cautiously.
"What kind of armor and knives do you not have?" The soldiers in the industrial area said looking at the twenty or so people expressionlessly.
"What a fart, our generals have already bypassed us. These weapons and armor belong to us, don't you dare to hold them back?" The temper tantrum among the generals of thousands of men immediately cursed away. A group of people are about to gather around.
"General? Hehe! General Zhang Liao didn't give me an order to come and get the armor." Even though they were surrounded by more than 20 people, the four soldiers from the industrial area guarding the armored vehicle did not flinch in the slightest.
"Then we'll take it ourselves!"
"You can try!" The two sides were full of gunpowder. One side had more than 20 people, but they had no armor and weapons. Although the other side had only four people, they had complete swords and armor.
"Come back!" the general Qian Ren said with a sigh, although Qian Ren clenched his fist tightly. But that's all.
A Xiliang iron cavalry wearing new armor ran over from the camp, still holding a token in his hand.
"General Zhang Liao has an order to order Kong Guowen and others to put down their armor and weapons, and go to the army to hand over things to General Qi Zhu of Xinqianren and receive food and pay." As soon as the Xiliang iron cavalry messenger finished delivering the order, the twenty or so people immediately disappeared. So that's it.
The new thousand generals? When will there be a new thousand general, Qi Zhu, I still ride a pig, this Qi Zhu is Qi Datou's name, but Qi Datou can forget about him. Because it's just too ugly.
"Payment!" The general bit his lip, this ration is the last ration, and it belongs to the severance pay for retiring from the army. There are only two kinds of people in the army who will receive severance pay, one is the disabled, and the other is the dead. But they.
"General, we want to find the general!" More than 20 people made a noise. They wanted to see the general. This group of Xiliang iron cavalry was boiling. If they were driven out of the army, what else could they do? Fighting and killing. for many years. After so many years on horseback, the original crop style may have been forgotten long ago. And they don't have any land yet, so let them destroy themselves.
"What's the noise!" Someone came out of the camp. The group of Xiliang iron cavalry saw that it was General Zhang Hu, and they were immediately castrated one by one.
In the army, Zhang Hu and Ge Jun used to be a bad face and a bad face.
"General, can you intercede with General Zhang Liao, our brothers, our brothers!" the general of thousands said bitterly.
"Please? How can you please! It's not that you don't know the rules in the army. We are no longer in the hands of General Xiao Zhang. At that time, we can be free. That's because we don't know when we will be alive, and when we will be alive." Dead! But not now, as a member of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, as a member of the Yangzhou Army, you must abide by the military regulations, and live to fight for the people of Yangzhou to fight the enemy. If you are disabled, the people of Yangzhou will support you, and you will die You can enter the Hall of Heroes and receive incense and offerings from the people. Soldiers must obey orders, even if the road ahead is mortal!" Zhang Hu's words were all said by Zhang Liao and Zhang Hu.
Although Xiliang iron cavalry had a grudge against Zhang Liao for killing his brother, Zhang Liao gradually became indifferent. Sooner or later, the soldiers would be shrouded in horse leather. Zhang Liao's enemy was not these soldiers but Liu Bei from Yuzhou. These days, Zhang Liao also took Xiliang with him. Tie Qi, from the cold eyebrows at the beginning, to the occasional smile now, has changed a lot.
But the only thing that hasn't changed is Zhang Liao's strict observance of military discipline. Soldiers must obey orders. What's the use of soldiers who don't obey orders? It is true that the general of thousands of people did the right thing. The heart of harming others is indispensable, and the heart of defense is indispensable. Zhang Liao asked them to push down their armor and swords. It is very likely that the Yangzhou Army killed the donkey. .
But if they are not soldiers, they are not wrong, but if they are soldiers and Xiliang iron cavalry, then it is a big taboo.
The reason why the Bingzhou wolf cavalry is the best cavalry in the world is because the Bingzhou wolf cavalry can completely obey the orders of the general, even if there is an abyss ahead, and there is a dead end ahead, as long as the general gives orders, they must charge forward.
This is Zhang Liao's bottom line. If he can't touch them, if he doesn't kill them, it's because Zhang Liao has softened his heart. After all, he fought side by side with them. The battle of Linhuai can be regarded as a battle.
The people below all shut their mouths. They can't justify themselves. If this is on the battlefield, they may really become deserters.
"Hey!" Zhang Hu also couldn't bear to look at the twenty or so former Xiliang iron cavalry, "Hurry up and leave the barracks. The general has not changed his mind." If Zhang Liao punished them, he would have nothing to say. ah.
"General, General, Guo Wen alone is responsible for everything here. I beg General and General Zhang Liao to intercede, just expel Guo Wen alone, and let them stay!" The thousand generals knew that there was nothing to be done, and hurriedly knelt down, He wanted to carry the matter alone.
"What did the general say? I'm not a general. I, Hong Da, would not just take off my armor and put down my sword!"
"Yeah, don't blame the general!" The group of Xiliang iron cavalry below was still showing loyalty.
"Let's go. Let's go!" Zhang Hu waved his hand. Zhang Hu had already ordered the subordinates to give them more food and salary.
"General, please, please! I, Kong Guowen, can leave, but these brothers can't. They have fought all their lives. If they leave, they will die. Please, General. Please!" Kong Guowen knelt They kowtowed their heads on the ground and smashed their heads. What else can these Xiliang cavalry do besides fight. Either it is a bandit who fell into the grass, will Liu Mang in the Yangzhou area allow bandits to appear? Huang Zhong was very satisfied with the bandits, because Huang Zhong used them to practice, and there was a dead end.
"If I knew this earlier, why did I do it in the first place?" Zhang Hu was also very embarrassed.
"General, didn't General Zhang Liao say that the army is not allowed to disobey the military order! Yes, I, Kong Guowen, disobeyed the military order, and I, Kong Guowen, recognized it, and they. It was I, Kong Guowen, who ordered them not to take off their armor and swords. If they Take it off. That is disobedience to my order, so they are not wrong! General." Kong Guowen was right. If you really want to count carefully, Kong Guowen is the only one who disobeyed the military order. This gang of Kong Guowen's subordinates just listened to Kong Guowen's words. After all, Kong Guowen is also their general. If they put down their weapons , Isn't it a violation of Kong Guowen's order
"This, this!" Zhang Hu's eyes widened. This Kong Guowen really made some sense. Zhang Hu didn't even know what to do, so he had to go in and ask General Zhang Liao.
"No need!" A figure came out from the military tent, this is Ge Jun "The general has heard what you said in the military tent, the general said to kill you, Kong Guowen, and let the men behind you return to the army, How?" Ge Jun asked.
"General, no, no!"
"Yes, yes!" Kong Guowen nodded with a smile, as if the person who was about to be beheaded was not him.
"No, no, if the general kills General Kong, we will not live alone!" This Kong Guowen is really popular, and Zhang Liao in the camp also nodded in appreciation. If possible, Zhang Liao also wants to keep this Kong Guowen, this person He is a talented person, but military law is military law, and the law is merciless.
"If you want to kill, kill us together!" Hong Dachong roared in front,
"Da Hong!" Kong Guowen wanted to stop Hong Da.
"Come and take them all down for me!" Ge Jun said to the Xiliang Iron Knights below, and soon all the twenty or so were taken down again.
"General Ge, Da Hong is a rough man, I beg the general to bypass them, bypass them!" Kong Guowen was in a hurry, originally he could just kill him alone, but now this Da Hong made it like this. Is Kong Guowen not in a hurry
"General, death is nothing but a scar as big as a bowl, so let the brothers accompany you!" This Hong Da is simply a reckless man.
"Hey!" Kong Guowen knew that it was useless for him to continue talking, so he could only sigh bitterly and become brothers underground. "Brothers, I, Kong Guowen, owe you a repayment in the next life."
"Let's wait for the next life to talk about the next life!" Ge Jun said angrily to these performers.
"Come here and throw this group of people out of the Xiliang iron cavalry camp for me! If you dare to enter again, you will be shot!" Ge Jun said to his subordinates.
"Yes!" The guards lifted one by two, dragged all the twenty or so people up and walked towards the gate of the camp, throwing out the big Xiliang iron cavalry one by one like throwing a burden. camp.
"Don't kill us?" Kong Guowen was also stunned.
"Kong Guowen! You're lucky. General Zhang Liao said that it would be a pity if someone like you died like this. You don't want to come back to this Xiliang iron cavalry. Take it!" Ge Jun in the camp gate turned towards Kong Guowen threw out a wooden slip.
"This, this is?" Kong Guowen took the wooden slip from Ge Jun's hand and looked at the engraved handwriting on it, and was also stunned.
"Since you only know how to fight, then continue to join the army. Whether you can climb to your current position and survive on the battlefield is your own business, and it has nothing to do with Xiliang cavalry from now on!" It turned out that Zhang Liao also looked at this hole Guo Wen is a talented person, and Xi Cai was reluctant to kill him, but the Xiliang Iron Cavalry could no longer use him, so he was immediately removed from the Xiliang Iron Cavalry. He was right, these Xiliang Iron Cavalry Veterans have fought all their lives, what else can they do besides fighting? If you were originally a soldier in Yangzhou, as long as you are alive, even if you are disabled, you will be raised by Yangzhou. After you leave the army, you can get good land from Yangzhou and save a lot of money. Taxes, but if they are expelled from the military, then everything will be over.
And Zhang Liao didn't want them to become bandits, and finally become enemies with the Yangzhou Army, so just throw him to other troops, don't even think about the main force, whether it's the Black Banner Army or the Urban Management Army, Zhang Liao can't get in. The only ones who went in were Huang Zhong, the old general Huang's reserve team, who had this possibility.
"Plop!" Kong Guowen fell to his knees again.
"General, what are you doing!" Hong Da didn't understand, they were all expelled from the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, why did Kong Guowen still kneel down, he should be spitting at the Xiliang Iron Cavalry camp now, and then shouted Say, Grandpa will never come back from now on.
"Thank you General Zhang Liao, thank you General Zhang Liao!" Kong Guowen bowed down to Zhang Liao sincerely this time.
"Da Hong, don't call me General anymore!" Kong Guowen said to Hong Da, now Kong Guowen is white.
"What's that called!?" Hong Da didn't understand, what else could he call a general if he was a general
"Call me Brother Kong!" Kong Guowen said to Hong Da.
"Brother Kong?" Hong Da tried to shout.
Kong Guowen responded with a smile, "Hey! You should call me Big Brother Kong too." The episode of the Xiliang iron cavalry did not affect the rotation of the entire war machine in Yangzhou at all.
All kinds of weapons and armor from the industrial area were first given to the main force, and then sent to the reserve. It can be said that Yangzhou is already in a period of vigorous development. The grain and grass snatched from Liu Bei were first distributed to the people. I didn't dislike it too much, and bought it at a big price.
Now that the Yangzhou Army has sufficient resources of all kinds, it is waiting for the lord's order to expand the territory for Liu Mang who is still in Jingzhou. (to be continued)
