Chapter 44: Military mission

17. Suppressing wounds for illness to avoid conquests; pinching wounds and feigning death, thus escaping; cutting them.

In fact, the reading of the military regulations is only an emphasis. Soldiers have learned the military regulations of the Fenwu Camp a long time ago. Although some soldiers cannot fully recite them, they also know the general content and know what they should and cannot do.

What Zhu Youjian just read was the prohibition in the military regulations. Soldiers must not violate the military regulations. If such military regulations are violated, they must be decapitated. This is what Zhu Youjian said, a way to protect oneself.

Zhu Youjian didn’t want these bans to dilute the strong passions of the soldiers, so he read quickly, basically just to remind the soldiers, don’t forget to violate because you are killing the enemy or even having military merits. Military order. Military orders are necessary at all times. There must be iron discipline before an iron army.

Back at the camp, Qin Yongnian was still immersed in excitement. The mighty and mighty soldiers and the morale of pushing mountains and seas. He has been in the army for more than 20 years. He has never seen a Ming army soldier with such a strong desire to fight. He has also seen the strong Liaodong Army. There is absolutely no such morale. Could it be the rebirth of the legendary Qi Family Army? I don't know if Fenwuying has the fighting power of Qi's army.

The morale of the soldiers was so high that, as the highest officer of the Fenwu Camp, he didn't know his soldiers, let alone Zhu Youjian's methods and methods to stimulate morale. Although from the bottom of his heart, he disdains Zhu Youjian's method to boost morale, but he has to admit that Zhu Youjian's measures to stimulate morale are still very clever.

"His Royal Highness, this time the Fenwu Camp will be under your full command. I will assist you in supplying food, grass, and equipment." When there were only two people left in the army's large account, Qin Yongnian finally made up his mind.

"Why did the commander say this? You are the main commander of Fenwuying, and I am only assisting the commander of the adult. If you say this, if you let an outsider hear it, you will think that you and I are at odds." Zhu Youzhen did not agree. Knowing Qin Yongnian's intentions, according to his understanding, Qin Yongnian should be a real soldier, and would not hold a grudge for stealing his limelight at the mobilization meeting.

"His Royal Highness Believe you don't need to worry too much! I just think your way of commanding the troops is different from my understanding, but I also think that you can fully mobilize the morale of the soldiers, especially the mobilization meeting for the soldiers. I am still passionate. I just want to see what is unique about your combat method." In order to dispel Zhu Youzhen's doubts, Qin Yongnian said very candidly.

If he unclearly handed over the command of the army to Zhu Youjian, even if Zhu Youjian could accept it, he would always feel uncomfortable and even thought that Qin Yongnian was picking up his son. If you have a knot in your heart, you will suffer from gains and losses when you command the army, and you will not be able to show your commanding art and command level, and you will lose your chance of winning if you can't.

"Commander..." Zhu Youjian wanted to say something more, and Qin Yongnian interrupted him: "Needless to say, Your Highness. Finding the best method of commanding troops is also the general's most important responsibility." They are all smart. People, there is no need to say more, but Zhu Youjian is too young after all, and has no actual combat experience, unless he is a genius. Qin Yongnian was somewhat uneasy, adding Zhu Youjian's status as the prince, "However, your Highness has to do one thing with me before I can transfer the command to your Highness."

"What's the matter?" Zhu Youjian didn't understand that Qin Yongnian had to hand over the command to him, so what conditions are he talking about now

"His Royal Highness can only strategize, and cannot charge into the battle. The charge is left to this general." Qin Yongnian did not let Zhu Youjian go to the battlefield for a reason. Zhu Youjian is a prince, and of course his status is not comparable to that of ordinary officers and soldiers, Zhu Youjian is also a minor, and his social experience and battlefield experience are obviously inadequate. Although he has a set of training soldiers and boosting morale, he really wants to go to the battlefield. The Japanese pirates don’t care about you. Life is in danger.

Whether you can wipe out the Japanese pirates is second, and protecting Zhu Youjian should be your top priority. The Japanese pirates could not be defeated, but they were dismissed and investigated. If Zhu Youjian injured the battlefield, it was not a matter of dismissal and investigation. The sentence of beheading the capital was light.

"If you don’t charge and fall into battle, you’re a general? Besides, Fenwuying doesn’t understand the situation of Japanese pirates. How can you get the details of the Japanese pirates if you don’t go to the battlefield?” Although going to the battlefield is a bit dangerous, Zhu Youzhen has the power of imaginary power. Just to protect yourself.

Besides, Japanese pirates are fighting on a mobile basis. They rarely stay in the same place for a long time. There is no special investigation in Fenwu Camp. If you are waiting in the rear, the daylily will be cold when the news arrives in front.

"Then..." Qin Yongnian was still worried about Zhu Youjian's safety, but Zhu Youjian made sense. As the commander of Fenwu Camp, he certainly knew the importance of first-hand information. "Then treat the special forces as your Royal Highness. Your soldier. Your Highness, don't make it difficult for this general to be a man."

"Then, I thanked the commander." Although the special team was formed and trained by Zhu Youjian, it is after all members of the military camp. If it is a personal soldier, it should be regarded as a personal soldier of Qin Yongnian. Since Qin Yongnian was polite, Zhu Youjian had to reluctantly accept them. They were also part of Zhu Youjian's hard work, and they would be used in war or construction in the future.

At dawn, the stern bugle disturbed the soldiers' dreams. They quickly got dressed and got up, and rushed to the dining hall five minutes later. Due to the hurry, the soldiers’ breakfast consisted mainly of dry food, white noodles and steamed buns, a bowl of porridge and a bowl of green tofu, and a few pieces of oily meat in the vegetable bowl.

Zhu Youjian’s mobilization meeting yesterday was very successful. The soldiers did not have the tension before the war. Some soldiers also joked, estimating how many Japanese pirates they could kill, how much merits they could make, and how many silver taels could be allocated. Not enough to marry a white and tender girl.

Breakfast only lasts for two quarters of an hour. After breakfast, the soldiers once again sorted out their little clothing.

The trucks carrying spare grain, grass and equipment set off for Jinan yesterday. They only need to prepare the weapons they use and the dry food they eat on the road.

In fact, there are tea houses and restaurants along the way to Jinan, but Fenwuying is in a hurry. There is definitely no time to rest during the day, and only stop at night, so the soldiers have to prepare a day’s dry food.

The camp gate slowly opened, and the soldiers of Fenwu Camp lined up and headed straight towards Jinan.

Fenwu Camp originally had 9,600 soldiers, plus officers, and had an establishment of more than 10,000 people. However, due to the problem of air payment, there are now only more than 6,000. But Zhu Youjian didn't mind. Six thousand soldiers were enough to deal with a mere two thousand Japanese pirates.

It is early autumn. In the morning, except for being a bit boring, the temperature is not too high and it is suitable for the soldiers to drive on. But after the time has passed, the weather gradually heats up. Soldiers running at high speed, their sweat is constantly dripping on the dust raised by the horses' hoofs. Let the raised dust fall to the ground again due to gravity, and the soldiers behind them feel less choking.

The vast majority of soldiers in Fenwu Camp were on the battlefield for the first time, and Qin Yongnian and Zhu Youjian did not urge them along the way, but a few thousand chiefs refused to yield to each other, vying for a while, and no one wanted to drag the Fenwu Camp back.

In the evening of the third day, the leading cavalry guards rushed to Jinan under the personal leadership of Qin Yongnian and Zhu Youjian. The following infantry guards are estimated to arrive in an hour.

Shandong governor Lu Chunru greeted Qin Yongnian and Zhu Youjian at the governor’s Yamen: “Shandong is unfortunate, shaking the capital, and there are General Lao Qin and General Wang.” He didn’t know that Wang Xin was Zhu Youjian, and Daming’s letter to the prince, so he said. You have to be polite, but the tone is flat, and it's completely business-like.

If it was not that the Shandong soldiers were unable to contain the Japanese pirates, they needed the help of the Fenwu Camp. As a civilian officer, there was no need to welcome the generals. It would be Qin Yongnian and Zhu Youjian who wanted to see him. maybe.

"Lord Laulu has been waiting for a long time. Soldiers are to protect their homes and the country. It is hard to say." Qin Yongnian bowed his hands. He is a professional soldier, usually far away from politics. He is not grateful for Lu Chunru's welcome, and he is not humble or humble, but it is also an official business. It looks like a public office.

"Master Lu, where is the Master King of Shandong General Soldier?" Zhu Youjian wanted to know the first-hand news of the Japanese pirates. This general soldier who had fought against the Japanese pirates several times should have the most say.

"Master Wang personally arranged the soldiers of the Fenwu Camp to rest in the military camp, and they will be there soon." Lu Chunru thought that Wang Huai'an personally arranged the soldiers of the Fenwu Camp as the two generals who pleased the reinforcements.

But in the face of the Japanese pirates who cannot be beaten by more than 100,000 soldiers from Shandong, what is the use of a mere 6,000 Fenwu camp? Although the fighting power of the Jingshi Army is higher than that of the Shandong Army, it will not be much stronger. Qin Yongnian and Wang Xin are also unavoidable from the fate of returning home. There is really no need to indulge.

Is it possible that the defeated general can still speak in the Ministry of War

"General Qin, General Wang, Wang is late." Wang Huaian arrived very quickly. His voice is not small. If you set up a street stall or something on the street, you probably don't need a loudspeaker.

While he was speaking, he saluted Qin Yongnian and Zhu Youjian. He looked familiar, as if Fenwuying was not here to fight but to travel. He happened to meet him in Jinan.

"You have Lord Lao." Qin Yongnian gave his hand back. People care about his subordinates, even if they are acting, they still have to give this account. Besides, in terms of rank, Wang Huai'an is Shandong General Soldier, a second-ranked soldier, and better The commander of the third rank is two levels higher.

Zhu Youjian did not return the gift. He was looking at the defeated general. He was tall, with narrow shoulders and abdomen. His skin looked slightly dark, and his eyes turned straight. Although he didn't squint, he was able to keep his surroundings indifferent. It is clearly a person who is good at drilling camp.

Because he is an ever-defeating general, Zhu Youjian has a very bad impression of him. This kind of person, in addition to gathering wealth for himself, is to promote himself. "Zong Bing Wang is fighting on the front line in Shandong. Please tell us the specific situation of the Japanese pirates, how many Japanese pirates are there, how effective they are, whether they are regular troops, and where they are now."
