In this day and age, things that can be taught by word and deed, such as experience, are as secret as some advanced and unique techniques, such as ancestral recipes, such as family heirloom martial arts, and are taught only to the most intimate relationships. In Dong Ce's view, this is a complete vice, and it is precisely because of this bad habit of cherishing oneself with a broom, keeping it secret, and passing on one's sons and daughters-in-law to daughters, which has led to the loss of many precious things or a complete change after a few generations.

But in the eyes of people in this era, it is normal.

"Take last night's battle, for example, we were at a disadvantage, but we first deceived and lured those Jiannu to attack, which dispersed their forces and weakened their strength. Thus each of them is broken, you think, if we do not disperse their forces, but attack at night at the beginning, can we do it? ”

Everyone remembered the hard battle last night, and shook their heads: "It can't be done." ”

"It's definitely us who are dead."

"That's the truth." Dong Ce clapped his hands and said, "So, you must remember this battle." Every time you fight, don't forget about it, be ignorant and confused. You have to learn from the lessons and the gains and losses, understand? ”

"Got it!" The crowd responded.

Dong Ce has now begun to consciously cultivate the ability of his subordinates to command battles, not just the ability to kill and fight, he wants to cultivate his subordinates to be &1& Ben& read& novels{.{ yb}{du}.} Become a qualified officer. It's not difficult, you just need to fight a few more battles and sum up more -- this is also the way almost all officers in this era have grown up. In the last years of the Ming Dynasty, the status of the warriors was so low that a large number of criminals and scum were exiled into the army, which further lowered the quality of this collective. Except for those children who were born in a family of military attachés and military honors, even senior officers at the level of general officers and generals are almost literate.

They don't read military books, and they can't read military books, and their ability to command operations comes from experience, and experience, after a few more battles, comes out.

At this time, Li Gui's shout suddenly came from under the pier: "My lord, I found something in the iron armor of the white armor. ”

"Oh?" Dong Ce was about to get up, but Wang Tong had already quickly stood up and said with a smile: "I'll go down and get it." ”

He went down the rope ladder, and after a while, he came up and handed Dong Ce something the size of a palm.

Dong Ce took it in his hand and took a closer look, but it turned out to be a waist card, six inches long and four inches wide, cast in brass, and the front was a relief of a tiger descending from the mountain. Although there are only a few brushstrokes, it depicts the fierce and domineering spirit of the tiger vividly, as if it is about to jump out of it and choose people to eat. On the back, they each wrote some words in Manchu and Chinese, and after Dong Ce read it, he sighed and said continuously: "No wonder, no wonder." ”

"What's wrong?"

Everyone asked questions.

Dong Ce explained: "No wonder that Baijia is so difficult to kill, it turns out to be a character with a background. ”

He shook the waist card in his hand and said, "This is the waist card of that guy, he called Yan Fu Ersu, not an ordinary Bai Baya soldier, but a white attendant Baya soldier." You know what it means to be an attendant, right? It is the personal guard of the banner master of Jiannu and the chief of Houjinnu, this guy is the personal guard of the owner of the red flag, and it is the elite in the white armor, which is placed in our Daming, which is called the master of the inner hall. ”

Everyone was stunned.

Zhou Zhong said with a smile: "If you want me to say, we have to report this news, maybe we can reward more silver for their exploits." ”

Dong Ce's heart moved, and he nodded yes.

As he was talking, Wang Yu suddenly pointed to the south and shouted, "Someone is coming!" ”

The crowd jumped up one after another, and was about to copy their weapons.

"Panic what!" Dong Ce shouted in a deep voice: "It's our people, not Jiannu." ”

Everyone saw that the cavalry was already approaching at this time, and the smoke and dust were billowing out, and there were about twenty horsemen, most of whom were wearing mandarin duck battle jackets—Jiannu was not so poor.

Dong Ce saw the banner of the comer, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned: "The news spread so fast, Xu Ruyi actually came in person?" ”

Looking closely, the person at the head has a fair complexion, three long beards, and some gloom between his eyebrows.

It's just that he didn't wear the official mansion today, but wore a suit of chain mail, an iron helmet, a saber hanging from his waist, and a big red cloak flying in the wind behind him, adding a bit of might.

Dong Ce muttered in his heart, and hurriedly got off the pier, opened the door, and led everyone to greet him.

"Your Excellency." Dong Ce led everyone to kneel and kowtow.

Xu Ruji looked at him coldly, his eyes were a little sneering, and Zhang Han beside him had a somewhat complicated expression.

Xu Ruwei didn't believe that Dong Ce could make such a big contribution, he thought that those people either exaggerated Dong Ce's merit tenfold - he might have only killed one Jiannu, or a lonely Ahha; Either they are the wrong person at all, or they may have put the credit of others on Dong Ce.

This is an instinctive denial of the person he hates, he admits that Dong Ce has a scheming and right wrist, but he doesn't believe that Dong Ce can fight so well.

Moreover, with the strength of a dozen or so dun armies, more than a dozen Jiannu were annihilated, and among them, there was a white armor and several horse armor infantry armors, which was simply a fantasy! Hysteria, right? He has been in Datong Town for more than 20 years, and he has never heard of this!

However, he was also skeptical, so he hurriedly brought someone to visit. I made up my mind that this time I had to punish Dong Ce for the crime of lying about the military situation.

"I can't say that I can squeeze out the remaining hundred acres of land in his hands!" Xu Rujian thought secretly.

At this moment, he saw that Dong Ce and the others were not injured much, so he strengthened his thoughts.

A hundred acres of land are in hand.

He said lightly: "Get up." ”

When Dong Ce stood up, he glanced up and down, and sneered: "Dong Jiachang, you guys look good!" I can still have this strength in the big battle with Jiannu last night, I really underestimated you at the beginning. ”

After saying this, everyone was stunned.

"What's going on? That's not quite right, right? ”

There was a burst of anger in everyone's hearts, and our brothers won such a sentence in the end?

Dong Ce was also stunned, he knew why Xu Ruyi said this with a sweep of his eyes, he sneered in his heart, but his face was full of grievances, and he was surprised: "Why did my lord say this, our brothers fought with those Jiannu last night, and they all did their best, and they also killed two brothers in battle, and their bodies are still parked in the pier, ......"

Xu Rujian sneered, and was about to speak, when Zhang Han suddenly gently pulled his sleeve and pointed to the pier.

Xu Rujian looked at it and was stunned.

He saw the circle of cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks, the whole stable, dozens of tall and divine horses of Liaodong, and even more saw the iron armor, cotton armor, chain mail, and a large number of fine iron weapons drying in the shade.

Not only him, but also the family sergeants behind him were also dumbfounded, and their eyes revealed seven points of envy and three points of greed.

With such a sophisticated armor and weapon, compared to other people's, we are in tatters!

There is no need for a head, these seizures speak for themselves.

Xu Ruji's face was red and white for a while, and suddenly became full of enthusiasm, with a smile on his face. He laughed and jumped off the horse, patted Dong Ce's shoulder heavily, and praised: "Sure enough, it's a good man, I really didn't misunderstand you." This time, if you kill more than a dozen elite Jiannu people, I will definitely ask for credit for you! ”

"Mr. Zhang, what did you say when I appointed Dong Erlang as the head of Anxiang Dunjia?" He smiled at Zhang Han and said: "I'll just say, Dong Erlang is a good man, and he will definitely be able to make meritorious contributions and glorify his ancestors!" ”

Zhang Han nodded with a smile: "The adults are clever, and the students admire." ”

Dong Ce looked at his laughter, how far-fetched it was.

This will make Xu Rujian smile on his face, and his stomach and intestines will be repentant. He didn't expect that the rumor to be true, he knew that Dong Ce was so capable of fighting, and he wanted to envelop him in advance, and second, to block the news in advance. If the news does not spread, but is reported by itself, then the room for maneuver immediately becomes very large! If that's the case, Dong Ce's credit can be directly taken and put on his head!

But now that the news has spread, I am afraid that now that Zhenqiangbao and Hebei Province have already known, they can't hide it.

He was also a decisive man and made decisions right away.

Since it can't be stealed, then it must be divided into profits -- after all, Dong Ce, as his subordinate, can have such a result, and it must be indispensable for his own command and strategy. Besides, if he hadn't brought Dong Ce up, would he have been able to make such a contribution?

It makes sense!

So he is now starting to envelop Dong Ce, not only because he wants to share the credit, but also because he realizes that Dong Ce's son is by no means an ordinary person, and he is afraid that his future is limitless. If you can't kill him, then you can have a good relationship with him, and maybe it will be good for you in the future.

"It's okay, it's okay, this guy still has the handle in my hand."

Xu Ruyu thought to himself in his heart, he didn't expect it to be so soon, it was originally Dong Ce's handle to manipulate himself, but it became a handle that he might use to manipulate Dong Ce.

The sedan chair carries people, Dong Ce is not the kind of person who doesn't know what to do, and hurriedly smiled: "The adult has won the award, the lower official can have such a feat, thanks to the adult's support, if there is no adult in the middle of the command, how can there be such a big victory?" ”

The two looked at each other and laughed.

Dong Ce is also knowledgeable, and he knows that Xu Ruji can't be avoided no matter what, so he generously shares the credit with him, anyway, the great credit is always his own, and no one can snatch it.

With Dong Ce's words, Xu Rujian put his mind at ease and knew that the credit had been received.

The Ming Dynasty regarded the first rank as a soldier, but at the same time, it also affirmed the merits of the commanding officers. According to the rules set by Wanli in the third year, the thousand commanders were 500 people, and the subordinates won 30 pieces, and they were promoted to one level; 1,000 commanders, 60 subordinates, promoted to two levels; 500 commanders, 15 subordinates, promoted to one level; The commander of 1,000 people, and his subordinates were killed 30 pieces, and they were promoted to two levels, until they were promoted to three levels.

Xu Ruwei is not even a commander, he is just a team officer, and there are less than 100 people under his hands, and he has 14 beheadings, which is enough to upgrade to the next level. What's more, there is also a white armor among them! This one white armor can be counted as three heads.

Feeling relaxed, Xu Rujian was accompanied by Dong Ce, and he turned around in the pier, looking at these seizures, the smile on his face became more and more vigorous. Dong Ce introduced the seizure this time, of course, he didn't mention the silver, and others didn't say anything at all. Xu Ruwei lingered in front of those armor weapons for the longest time, and his hand gently stroked them, letting out bursts of admiration and exclamation.

He really wanted a few sets of armor to go back, but unfortunately he was embarrassed to start, so he just hoped that Dong Ce would be interested and open his mouth to offer it.

Although Dong Ce saw it, he regarded these armor weapons as more important than silver money, where would he give them to Xu Ruji? Therefore, he is also pretending to be stupid.

Xu Ruji's smile slowly cooled down.

He proposed to go and see the heads of those Tartars, Dong Ce naturally agreed, but as soon as Xu Ruji entered the mourning hall, he saw those heads with hideous faces, and his face was immediately ugly, and he actually retched on to the corner of the wall.

When the dunjun saw it, they suddenly felt a burst of disdain in their hearts.

"This thing has no eggs...... Zhou Zhong muttered and scolded secretly.

Xu Rujian hurriedly retreated, and as for the remains of the two war dead, he didn't even look at them.

Dong Ce's heart suddenly moved, and he said, "My lord, the lower officials have something to ask for." Last night, two of our sergeants were killed and two were wounded. The lower officials hope that the lord can report to the court and reward the two brothers to reassure the army. ”

"We'll talk about that later."

Xu Rujian waved his hand impatiently, said vaguely, got on the horse out of the pier, and said: "Dong Erlang, don't worry, this official will go back, report to the court, and ask for credit for you!" ”

With that, he waved his hand and spurred his horse away.

Zhang Han wanted to say something, opened his mouth, but didn't say anything after all, shook his head, and left.

Xu Ruji and they went far away, leaving billowing smoke and dust.

Zhou Zhong couldn't hold back any longer, and spat on the ground with a mouthful of thick phlegm: "This pig and dog are not as good as things!" ”

Everyone also scolded.

Dong Ce's face was calm, not moving like a mountain, but there was a smile in his eyes.
