Chapter 1076: Homecoming
The training went smoothly in the midst of stumbling and stumbling, and at the end of the day, all the soldiers who participated in the simple training began to be worried. People are like this, they always hesitate before they do something, and when they start to do it, they expect the perfect result.
No matter how worried the soldiers were, they could only resign themselves to fate, and the initiative was only in the hands of Mao Wenlong, and this time he personally selected. The files recorded by 20,000 people were almost piled up in his study.
Although everyone's files are simple multiple-choice questions, the amount is too large, and some of them have to be busy with Mao Wenlong. Putting down the hundredth file, Mao Wenlong stretched his waist and rubbed his somewhat dry eyes, his face full of sleepiness.
Haoda brought him the freshly brewed tea, handed it to Mao Wenlong, and persuaded worriedly: "Chief soldier, your body is important, so many files depend on you alone to see what year and month." Why don't you let all the gentlemen in the academy come over and help, or you can take a break. ”
Mao Wenlong shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's not proper, this kind of training plan is a little inappropriate, and now the only thing that can be given to the sergeants is enough fairness." In order to avoid any favoritism, it is better for me to do it alone. ”
With a huge face full of helplessness, since the end of the evening training, Mao Wenlong has been buried in this study. No one was allowed to bother, just to look at the mountains of files.
Mao Wenlong took the tea, took two sips at random, and wanted to continue to bury his head in the file. By noon tomorrow at the latest, he must review all these files, otherwise he will delay the training.
The vast man stood hesitantly, as if there was something unspeakable. Mao Wenlong felt that Haoda had not left, so he looked up at him again: "If there is anything else, just say it quickly, and go out after you finish talking and don't disturb me." ”
"Chief soldier, there are a lot of people waiting to see you outside, do you want to deal with it first?" Haoda finally spoke his heart.
"A lot of people?" Mao Wenlong's face was full of confusion.
"It's Chen Qiyu, Chen Jisheng, Xu Fuzhuan, big brother, they all arrived and waited outside the study and refused to leave. said that they couldn't see the general soldiers, so they kept waiting. Hao Da said helplessly.
"What are they doing with me?" When Mao Wenlong heard that they were looking for it, he didn't care so much, and asked casually while looking at the files.
"They all say that the general army favors one over the other, and they must find the general soldier to make the theory clear." Haoda stared at Mao Wenlong's expression and carefully explained the reason.
"Favor one over the other, and find me to theorize ......"
Mao Wenlong was stunned, and after a while, he suddenly came back to his senses. These guys must have come to ask for an explanation because they didn't call them for this training.
Thinking of this, Mao Wenlong was also very helpless, this training was to build a new naval team. If the steam engine warship was successfully launched, then the old naval system of the Ming Dynasty would inevitably change in the future. The new navy will also usher in a new life, and many old officers and soldiers will be eliminated directly.
"Let them all in." Mao Wenlong threw down the matter in his hand again and commanded Haoda.
Haoda had obviously been upset by those people outside, and when he heard that Mao Wenlong was finally willing to see them, he smirked twice, turned around and rushed out of the door.
A moment later, Chen Qiyu and Chen Jisheng were the leaders, and a large group of people rushed directly into the study. There wasn't much space left inside, and as soon as they swarmed in, it immediately became even more crowded.
When Mao Wenlong saw it, his brows furrowed deeply, the room was already stuffy, and now he felt that it was a little difficult to breathe. Immediately, Mao Wenlong spoke: "Go outside and talk about it." ”
Ignoring those stunned old subordinates, Mao Wenlong straightened up and walked to the door. So everyone followed him and left the study in an orderly manner.
The courtyard was very quiet, Mao Wenlong turned his back to everyone, looked up at the dark night sky and said, "Just say something." ”
Chen Qiyue and Chen Jisheng, the two leaders, glanced at each other, and they both saw the worry in each other's eyes from each other's eyes. Obviously, Mao Wenlong's expression at this moment was very inappropriate, and his tone was even more faintly impatient. In such a situation, Chen Qiyue and Chen Jisheng's previous momentum was suddenly frustrated, and when they were about to speak, they both hesitated.
In the end, Chen Qi became more and more bold, and when he saw that Chen Jisheng didn't dare to speak, he stood up and bowed to Mao Wenlong's back and said, "Chief soldier, we don't accept it!" ”
Mao Wenlong suddenly turned to stare at Chen Qiyu, who suddenly felt a great coercion, and gradually Chen Qiyue began to be humble. He regretted it, regretting that he shouldn't have been too impulsive just now, and that he would most likely be taken as a bird.
However, Chen Qiyue's worries were obviously superfluous, and Mao Wenlong's face gradually eased, and his gaze swept over these old subordinates present. Some people are not young and are already grandfathers, while others have not yet started a family. They are all old generals who followed themselves to conquer the world and defeated the Ming Dynasty, Mao Wenlong really can't bear to reprimand them at this moment.
Sighing lightly, Mao Wenlong said lightly: "You are here for something that didn't let you participate in this training, right?" ”
Chen Qi breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly replied: "Chief soldier, do you look down on us, dislike that we are all old and can no longer make contributions to the Ming Dynasty." ”
It's all at this time, and the words have been spoken, Chen Jisheng obviously can't be silent anymore, he echoed: "Chief soldier, we are not old yet, we are still in the prime of life." If the general soldier does not believe it, he can let the young men in the barracks come to fight with us, and if we lose, then we will have no complaints. ”
"yes, we should have a discussion." The rest also immediately came out to help.
The corners of Mao Wenlong's eyes suddenly moistened slightly, these are loyal old subordinates, even if Mao Wenlong wants them to commit suicide for no reason at the moment, it is estimated that these killers will not blink their eyes and do so.
But it is precisely because they are so loyal that Mao Wenlong doesn't want them to regret their old age. They are all survivors of the battlefield and have spent most of their lives wallowing on the battlefield. Now that the Ming Dynasty is quite stable, they should enjoy the time more than continue to live the days of licking blood on the knife.
"Wouldn't it be good for you to be your instructor in the academy and leave the rest of your life to your family who rarely get together? You're so happy when you're fighting and killing all day long, aren't you? Mao Wenlong was resolute, and his tone became tough again.
"We don't, as a soldier, dying on the battlefield is our destination. Even if we die, we must die honorably, instead of staying at home and dying of old age! Chen Jisheng blushed and had a thick neck, which would obviously arouse the ambition in his heart.
