1208. Preparations before the battle

After seeing the salute, looking at the carriages, the difficult creaks, were pulled into the villa, and the ruts pressed the ground with deep prints, and the generals were also curious.

Li Pojun said bluntly: "A few days ago, I had a big wedding, and you didn't be able to go to the lively and lively, today I came to treat the army, all the wine and meat were taken to the canteen, and today the wine and meat are full, in addition, these money are rewards, everyone has a share, and they are all happy."

When the generals heard this, they were all overjoyed and thanked and congratulated.

When they came to the school ground, more than 8,000 Shenstler soldiers were already waiting, and they were all cheering when they saw Li Pojun on stage.

Li Pojun got on the stage, looking at the crowd of black oppression, towering like a pine, with a sharp momentum, and he was also very happy.

After taking the tin horn, Li Pojun opened his throat and began to speak, without a script, thinking of where to say, first counted the glorious achievements of the Shence Army, and praised the Shence soldiers, and all the Shence soldiers puffed up their chests and were honored. Then he condoled the training of the Shence soldiers, saying that they had worked hard or something, which made the soldiers very moved, and then he talked about how he missed it, and he didn't see it every three autumns or something, anyway, he didn't need a draft of the nonsense.

All the soldiers listened silently, their faces were excited, their eyes were warm, if it weren't for the fact that they couldn't interrupt Li Pojun's speech, I am afraid that they would have already cheered and shook the sky.

In the end, Li Pojun waved his hand, and Li Zheng led people to carry one large box after another to the general's platform, and the dull sound of the swaying showed that the weight of the box was not light.

All the soldiers looked at it with curiosity.

"A few days ago, Japan will be married, this big day will be very happy, but in addition to being happy, Ben will not forget the brothers, I can eat meat, brothers will also eat meat, I am happy, brothers should also be happy, so today, wine and meat are full." Li Pojun stretched out his hand and shouted, at this moment, Li Pojun didn't look like the prince of a country, just like the king of the cottage.

Without waiting for the soldiers to cheer, Li Pojun pointed to those big boxes and said: "The brothers should also be happy when they are happy, this is also almost the New Year, and sending some happy money will also let the brothers have a prosperous New Year." With a wave of his hand, Li Zheng opened the boxes one by one, and there were stacks of copper plates inside.

The soldiers' eyes lit up when they saw it, and they were paid as soldiers, but they didn't love money.

Then Li Pojun asked Changshi Zhu Cheng and the chief of the army, Sun Lian, to preside, and received the money according to their rank.

Looking at the happy and excited appearance of the soldiers, Li Pojun also smiled.

If you want a horse to run, you have to give it grass, and the same is true for commanding troops.

Although Li Pojun has set up instructors in the Shence Army to carry out ideological work, so that the soldiers are full of a sense of national honor and loyalty, and let the soldiers know what they are fighting for, it is also very fruitful, at least the current Shence Army is an army with a military soul and fighting spirit.

Unlike other armies, soldiers are only to cope with the recruitment of national government soldiers, just for that little bit of food and salary.

Despite the ideological education, there can be no shortage of material aspects.

Therefore, Li Pojun strictly ordered that no matter when, Shence military salaries could not be in arrears, let alone cut off, and there could be no shortage of food and treatment.

In this way, an army that is not short of material and spiritual aspects is an army that will not be defeated in a hundred battles.

And the reward is also divided into levels, which is also very necessary, you can't always get the same reward as an ordinary soldier, since you are an ordinary soldier, the reward should be the lowest, if you want a high reward, just make a good meritorious performance, this is also a kind of encouragement, anyone has nothing to say, what average, what fairness is nonsense, what kind of treatment you deserve for what ability.

As the prince's pro-army, the treatment of the Shence army is not low, and among the twelve guards of the Tang Dynasty, it is recognized as the best-treated army, although the other Weifu soldiers are a little envious and jealous, but they have nothing to say.

After all, the East Palace should have six leading soldiers and horses, and now Li Pojun has all requested to be dismantled, only pay attention to the unified army of the Shence Army, and there is nothing to say about the better treatment, in addition, the record of the Shence Army is also real, whether it is Ping Youyan, the destruction of the pseudo-Liang, or the Northern Expedition to the Eastern Turks, the performance of the Shence Army is very eye-catching, and the training of the Shence Army is also the most bitter.

The 12 guards and horses are usually a small exercise for three days, and a big practice on the fifth day, and the government military system is rotated, and each government soldier is only a few months a year when he is a soldier, and the 12 guards and horses stationed in the capital are rotated by the military and government soldiers and horses from all over the country, which can be described as very easy.

However, the Shence Army is a permanent soldier, once you enter the Shence Army, you will be in the Shence Army for life, unless you are killed in battle, disabled or retired from the army, the Shence Army is drilled and trained every day, and then there are special cultural classes to learn military thoughts, and you will take turns off every month.

Li Pojun had an idea in his heart, that is, to set up a military academy with the Shence Army as the foundation to train military personnel for the country; now the Shence Army is basically not completely illiterate, ordinary non-commissioned officers must be literate, and those generals must strictly study military theoretical knowledge and the art of war and tactics.

In the long run, the military quality of the Shence Army will be unimaginable, and any person can go to the Twelve Guards as a general, this is the result that Li Pojun wants.

Then, under the strong encouragement of Li Pojun, Xiao Yan came to Jiangtai with a slightly red face, and said timidly to the iron horn, "This palace is the crown princess of the East Palace, and the soldiers have worked hard."

As soon as these words came out, the audience was silent, and the Shence soldiers looked at Xiao Yan with warm eyes, and then burst into deafening cheers and worship.

In this era, there is no woman who can't show her face, after all, the princess of Pingyang in this dynasty is the heroine of the autumn soldiers on the battlefield, but the sergeants did not expect that the crown princess would value them so much, and she actually came to the barracks to greet them, how could she not be excited.

The effect of Xiao Yan's visit to condolences was even more sensational than Li Shimin's personal visit.

is a simple sentence, but the effect is more sensational than Li Pojun's dry mouth and half-jumping before, and Li Pojun also smiled bitterly.

In the canteen, cooking sheep and wine, it is not lively, the Shence soldiers are all beaming, as if they are celebrating the New Year, the heavy silver money in their arms, the large pieces of meat in their eyes, the Shence soldiers only feel that their lives have reached the peak, at this moment, even if someone puts a knife on their necks and asks them to defect from the Shence army, they will not do it.

Follow His Royal Highness the Prince, join the Shence Army, protect the family and defend the country, it is the responsibility of a man, crisscrossing the battlefield, winning glory for the country, and creating the glory of the Tang Dynasty together, how bloody it is, not afraid of death, there is a generous pension when you die, and there is His Royal Highness the Prince to support you when you are disabled, and the monthly military salary is enough for a family of five to enter a well-off home, what else is not worth it, just do it.

Li Pojun's generous move and his lack of skimpliness in money made the cohesion and loyalty of the Shence Army even higher.

After eating and drinking, the soldiers dispersed on their own.

After sending Xiao Yan to the residence for settlement, Li Pojun came to the conference hall.

In the hall, Li Pojun sat on the top, a row on the left, Zhai Changsun as the leader, followed by Liang Baiwu, Fang Yiai, Xue Rengui, Xi Junmai and others sat in turn, a row on the left, Zhang Wenqian as the head, and then Li Zhen, Zhu Cheng, Changsun Lian, Chen Ping, Feng Xin, Li Zheng and others sat in turn.

Seeing the civil and military subordinates gathered together, at this moment, Li Pojun also felt very fulfilled, regardless of others, at least he still had such loyal subordinates, in addition, although Su Dingfang, Liu Renliang and even Wang Xuance and others were not his direct subordinates, but they were also oriented towards themselves.

Without waiting for Li Pojun to speak, Fang Yiai asked anxiously: "General, is there a battle to fight?" It's been more than half a year since the Turks came back, and it's boring to train all the time, I heard that the fangs over there in Jiannan Road are making trouble again, general, do we have a chance to fight? ”

Hearing Fang Yiai say this, the whole house of civil and military people looked at Li Pojun intently, Li Pojun also smiled, waved his hand and said: "Don't think about this, Fang Er, are you a little promising?" The fangs still need to dispatch the divine army for that little rabble? ”

"The rabble is also a little meat, it's better than nesting here." Fang Yiai scratched his head and smiled.

"In the past few months, the Jiannan Fangren are indeed a little restless, in May and June, Zhang Shigui, the head of the Yazhou Road March, has broken through the nest of the Fangren, and successfully broke it, but it is unexpectedly that the Zhang's military retreated, and those Fangren are repeated, and it is good to plunder the state and county, especially in Jiazhou and Lingzhou, the mountains are high and the forests are dense, and the Fangren are in rebellion here, and they do not obey the king, but a few days ago, the sage has ordered that the bull of Langya County enter the front to quell the rebellion."

Li Pojun also knew about the rebellion, but the total number of fangs in Jiannan was only tens of thousands, and the rebels were only a few thousand thorns and sticks who disobeyed Wanghua, and they couldn't make any waves, so they didn't care, and they didn't take the initiative to ask Ying to go to the deep mountains of Sichuan and Shu to quell the chaos.

Fang Yiai was not very interested when he heard this, but Zhai Changsun asked curiously: "General, the last general has never heard of the twelve guards mobilizing soldiers and horses, I don't know that the guards and horses led by the Duke of Langya County are going to fight?" ”

"yes? I don't know if that guard has the good fortune to be able to go on the expedition, it shouldn't be the left leading guard of the Dingfang brothers." Du He was also a warmonger, and he was jealous of the army that went out.

Li Pojun laughed when he heard this, "You look down on the fangs, they are not numerous, the weapons are not sophisticated, there are no good generals to command the troops, that is, they lose their temper and make trouble, the local government is also mediocre, there is no one who is good at commanding the army, General Niu Jinda knows the art of war and is good at using soldiers, this time he went to Jiannan alone, as long as he controlled the local government soldiers, he could break the chaos."

This is not Li Pojun's nonsense, Niu Jinda's deeds are not much, and the chaos is also one of his famous achievements, Niu Jin reached Jiazhou, commanded the local government soldiers, and in less than a month, he broke the fangs, captured the fangs, and then learned from Zhuge Wuhou's moves, released the heads, adopted the strategy of caressing, pacified the fangs, and pacified the chaos.

Hearing Li Pojun say this, everyone also lost interest in going out to Jiannan.

Not having the opportunity to go out to fight is very painful for their group of people who are eager to make meritorious contributions, and they practice and study all day long, how can they fight on the battlefield happily, and only war can allow them to establish meritorious service and become knights.

Seeing that everyone was not interested, Li Pojun's face was solemn, and he shouted: "What are you doing like this? It's like a defeated soldier, I want to be imposing, not these wilted heads."

Seeing Li Pojun's reprimand, the generals were busy puffing up their chests and cheering up, and heard Li Pojun say: "To tell you the truth, I came today, in addition to the army, just to tell you, don't relax your vigilance, you must always exercise your military quality, the future battle is still long, next year, next year there will be a big battle waiting for us, now don't sweat training, when the time comes to the battlefield, that is to shed blood and lose your life."

Hearing that Li Pojun said that there would be a big battle next year, all the generals were overjoyed, and they all looked at Li Pojun with hopeful eyes. Fang Yiai's face turned even redder, if he wasn't afraid of interrupting Li Pojun's speech, he would have jumped up and asked for help.

Seeing the look of the generals, Li Pojun opened his mouth and shook his head, because Li Pojun knew that he couldn't say it now, because the tribe was still very honest now, and he didn't show any disrespect to Datang.

Seeing that Li Pojun didn't say anything, the generals had no choice, but they also knew that Li Pojun would not be untargeted, and everyone was curious.

"From tomorrow, we will start to focus on training running, switchback running and other items, increase chest expansion, arm vibrating and other exercises, in addition to practicing breath-holding every day, add ten more large water tanks at the door of the canteen, bury your head in and hold a few breaths in and out of the canteen, and intentionally increase your lung capacity, well, lung capacity is the maximum breath volume to exhale after maximum inhalation, for example, whoever holds their breath in the water for a long time, whose lung capacity is high."

Li Pojun said what he thought about all night, because if he went to that place to fight next year, it would be very difficult, and he had to prepare in advance.

The generals were amazed when they heard Li Pojun's words, and they still want to exercise like this? Vital capacity? It is another new term, although the generals did not understand, but they also nodded in response, and they did not dare to disobey or question Li Pojun's order.

Li Pojun was about to give a few orders, when suddenly, there was a commotion at the door, and it should be the doorman who stopped someone.

"General, the princess's maid asks to see." The doorman came to report that Zheng Liwan broke into the conference hall last time, but he was subjected to military law, and he didn't dare this time.

"Oh? Let her in".

"Your Royal Highness, the lady and the crown princess are crying, crying very sadly", it was Nian Xia who came in, and she said in a hurry as soon as she entered the door and didn't have time to see the ceremony.

As soon as these words came out, the hall was silent, Li Pojun looked at Nian Xia, and then at the generals, looking confused.

Then hurriedly dropped the sentence "adjournment", that is, he hurriedly went out, crying, and crying very sadly? What is the case?
