The Path of the Sage

Chapter 155: Military strategy

Views:

There are three squads in a team. Although there is no hatred between the three squads, they are always competing with each other. When other teams see that there is such a troublesome new recruit in the first squad, all kinds of bad intentions arise and they follow Fang Yun's team, running and shouting.

"Old soldier of the First Squad, this doesn't look good to me! This Fang Yun doesn't even need to catch his breath when he runs!"

"I think everyone in this group will be surpassed by this guy called Fang Yun. They'll all have their heads shaved!"

"The Fang family is really amazing. They have the scholar Fang Yun above them and the student Fang Yun below them. It's really amazing."

"It's over, it's over. The veterans of the First Division are no longer able to fight!"

There were also some old soldiers who didn't say anything but followed with a sly smile.

The veterans of the first squad were quite depressed. Losing to the new recruits was not a big deal, but being laughed at by other soldiers was not good.

The competitive atmosphere in the military is stronger than that in the liberal arts colleges, and the soldiers’ tempers are more straightforward than those of the civilian department in the liberal arts colleges.

When the squad leader Hong Cheng saw that those people were not going to stop, he ran and yelled: "Get out of the way! If you are a man with balls, come and compete with us! If our squad loses, we will wash your clothes for a year! If you lose, you have to wash our squad! Damn it, since when did our Ding Navy rely on talking to determine the superiority of the navy!!"

A dozen of them burst into laughter, while the others hesitated.

Fang Yun looked at the person who had caused trouble earlier with a vengeful smirk and said, "I think it's you who are embarrassing the veterans! If you lose, you won't be allowed to eat today or tomorrow. Do you want to compete?"

"You little brat! I originally suspected that you were the Fang Yun, but now it seems that you are definitely not! That Fang Yun has always been modest and uncompetitive. You dare to provoke us as soon as you come here, you are dead! Brothers from the Second Squad, do you want to compete?"

"Better than his mother!"

"Where are the brothers from the Third Division?"

"No matter who you lose to, you can't lose to a little new recruit! Go!"

More than twenty people from the second and third squads rushed over yelling and ran with Fang Yun.

Captain Shi stood at the door and smiled.

"This little guy is good and enterprising!"

Dinghaijun’s run around the city is not just a long-distance run.

After leaving the barracks, the leader Hong Cheng suddenly accelerated, 50% faster than before, and the other veterans were not surprised at all and accelerated together.

The road was full of soldiers from Yuhai City. They all laughed when they saw them. It was common to run around the city to show off their power to the new recruits, but it was rare to see three squads of people running together.

When they ran out of the crowded area of East Sub-City and came to the foot of the nearest city wall, Hong Cheng looked back at Fang Yun and said with a slightly cold smile: "This is just the beginning."

After that, Hong Cheng started to speed up.

Fang Yun discovered that this young scholar was indeed terrifying. His current speed was even faster than an ordinary person's 100-meter sprint, and it seemed that he could maintain this speed for a long time. Even an ordinary scholar could not compare to this old soldier who had been exercising for many years.

One more initiation of talent will have a huge effect on the talent of the literary palace, but its effect on the body is not as great as more than three years of training.

What's more, these veterans are often blessed by the power of march poems, and over time, their bodies will become stronger and stronger.

Those veterans who were not virgins accelerated without hesitation.

Fang Yun followed. After running for a while, his breathing became a little faster.

However, the people around him were breathing more rapidly than him.

Time passed slowly, and after half a quarter of an hour, the team's speed was obviously slower than at the beginning.

The breathing of the non-child veteran was extremely rapid, and a complete breath took almost one second.

The old soldier behind him stared at Fang Yun's back with a dull look in his eyes.

"Something's wrong! Normally the recruit would have stopped holding onto the wall by now!"

"Could this Fang Yun be some military strategist's son who came to the army to gain experience under the pseudonym Fang Yun?"

The old soldier in front looked back from time to time.

"Damn it! If he doesn't stop, I can't stand it anymore!" said one person. The breath in his heart was gone, and his steps became slower and slower.

After a while, the breathing of all the non-child students became more and more disordered. They had to slow down and give up sprinting.

In the end, there were only twelve young veterans and Fang Yun left running together, and the others could only walk slowly, holding their waists in silence.

"It must be someone from the military family!"

"I've seen that a long time ago. He looks immature, but when we old hands teased him, he wasn't angry or scared. He obviously knows the rules of the army."

"It's a good thing that the military has come. We'll be much safer. But it's embarrassing."

"You'll get used to it. By the way, don't tell anyone about this, or our relationship with the military children will fade."

The veterans nodded in unison.

"Alas, I really hope that genius Fang Yun majored in military science. Although Confucianism is a great doctrine, it is not good for killing enemies, unless he can become a sub-sage."

"Yes, I hope this Fang Yun has the talent of that Fang Yun and becomes a half-saint in military strategy."

"You guys think too much. There aren't that many geniuses out there! Turn back and see if you can run into them!"

The veterans turned around and walked counterclockwise along the wall of the East Sub-City. After a while, they saw the veterans running towards them. Except for a few people whose steps were a little messy, everyone else was very steady.

"Look, Fang Yun sweats less than any of them."

"Not only that! His breathing is also very steady. It's not a problem if you don't know the goods, but it's a problem if you compare the goods!"

"Hey, I'm telling you to stop competing. Fang Yun is obviously stronger than you!" As soon as one person finished shouting, he was immediately met with angry glares from all the students and veterans.

When the group of young students and veteran soldiers passed by, the man whispered, "That's how it is."

These old soldiers who were not Tongsheng continued walking, and soon they saw Fang Yun and others running around the city. This time everyone's speed slowed down, and except for Fang Yun, all the Tongsheng's breathing became disordered, but they still ran fast with all their strength.

If they were running slowly around the city, these students could run for a whole day, but now they were running at a sprint speed. After running nearly two laps in an area as large as East Sub-City, the veteran students were already close to their limit.

Those old soldiers who were not virgins looked at each other, and their evil intentions broke out again.

"New recruits win!"

"We all stand with the recruits!"

"Come on Fang Yun!" The veterans shouted the slogan that came from the oil press workers.

After more than a dozen veterans shouted like this, the morale of those veteran soldiers collapsed instantly!

An old soldier who was almost unable to hold on changed from running to walking, panting and angrily saying, "You bastards! I won't compete anymore! This Fang Yun must be a descendant of a military family! I've seen descendants of military families before, they have the power of the Holy Way of Courage, otherwise they would never be so fierce! This one is just a little tiger, I can't compete with him! Ouch, I'm so angry that my liver hurts."

A soldier in front of him was amused by what he said. He also stopped running and walked away, waving his hands and saying, "No more running! I'm going to wash clothes! I won't eat tomorrow!"

The other young students and veterans stopped one after another, but the three squad leaders were still unconvinced and continued to run, while Fang Yun followed silently behind the three men.

This is already the third lap.

The three squad leaders were still patient at first, but after running most of the circle, they began to look back at Fang Yun again and again.

At first their eyes were fierce, as if to say, let’s see how long you can run!

After a while, their eyes became extremely anxious, as if asking, why are you still here!

Very quickly. Their eyes were a little dazed, as if to say please don't run away, we are going to collapse!

Seeing that the three squad leaders' steps were becoming unsteady and they might faint from exhaustion at any time, Fang Yun whispered, "I need to eat tomorrow."

The leader of the Second Squad let out a heart-wrenching scream: "It was just for a few meals! Why didn't you tell me earlier? It's too cruel! We, the Second Squad, lost, and you, the First Squad, won!"

The squad leader of the third squad began to walk silently, slowly letting his body recover, with his head lowered, as if he had suffered a great blow.

Fang Yun also stopped running. He had to give his superior some face.

Hong Cheng, the leader of the first division, finally started walking. He whispered, "When I started running, I wanted to say that if I lost to you, I would give you the position of leader. Fortunately, I kept my mouth shut!"

"It's so embarrassing. Whoever dares to spread rumors about what happened today, I'll see you on the training ground! I can't kill him!" The second chief walked slowly with a gloomy face.

"I'll do it with you!" said the third sergeant.

Hong Cheng suddenly grinned, walked over to Fang Yun, put his arm around his shoulders and said, "Good boy! The future of the Bingjia depends on you! Hehe, Bingjia Tongsheng is really amazing! Are you using this pseudonym to surpass Fang Yun from our Yuhai Mansion? Don't worry. We soldiers naturally side with Bingjia!"

Fang Yun said helplessly: "Isn't Fang Yun from Dayuan Mansion?"

Hong Cheng suddenly glared and said, "He raced dragon boats in our Yuhai Mansion, passed the examination for a scholar and entered the Shushan Temple in our Yuhai Mansion. So he must be from our Yuhai Mansion!"

"From the sound of your voice, I can tell you don't seem to be on the side of the military strategist." Fang Yun said.

Hong Cheng said very frankly: "You are an outsider after all, and we Yuhai people cannot let the Bing family down. At the Qixi Literary Gathering, do you want to compete in poetry with Fang Yun from our Yuhai Mansion?"

Fang Yun didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Hongcheng was too interesting.

"I'm not good at poetry." Fang Yun said.

"The children of military families all major in military tactics, and poetry is certainly not their major. Do you have a book on military tactics?" Hong Cheng asked with a smile.

"This..." Fang Yun didn't want to reveal the military book too early.

"Haha, I've said too much! The military book is so precious, I certainly can't talk nonsense. I understand!" Hong Cheng looked like he understood everything.

The squad leader of the second squad suddenly said with a bitter face: "Lao Hong, our team will be on night duty tomorrow. If we don't eat for a day, how can we patrol at night? Let's postpone it for a day."

Hong Cheng smiled and said, "It's no problem to postpone it for one day, but if Fang Yun has any problems in the future, you have to help him."

"Of course." The two squad leaders said immediately. They were so scared that they ran away.

"However, tomorrow's clothes depend on you! They cannot be washed poorly!" said Hong Cheng.

"Um..." the two squad leaders agreed weakly.

Fang Yun thought these veterans were really interesting, and said with a smile: "I hope you can keep my identity a secret and not tell anyone."

"Of course! If other teams or other battalions knew that you were a military strategist, they would definitely come to snatch you. How could we be so stupid! However, no matter who you are, you should train and do what you should do, but you cannot seek privileges." Hong Cheng's tone at the end was very serious.

"I'm really not a military family's son, I'm just an ordinary soldier!" Fang Yun told the truth.

"That's good of you to say! But, do you have any military experience?" Hong Cheng asked.

"I have studied military books extensively, but this is my first time serving in the army," Fang Yun said.

"That's right! You are more patient than any military scholar I have ever seen. When Fang Yun of our Yuhai Mansion becomes a semi-saint, you will have the opportunity to become a great military scholar!" Hong Cheng gave him an encouraging look.

Fang Yun was speechless. (To be continued...)
