(Thanks to Mizuki Xiaoxiao and kun111 for their support, thank you!) This chapter is actually a few minutes late, and the egg hurts! ）

Behind a dirt slope next to the avenue to the east of Songzhou, a long table was erected and a white tablecloth was laid on it. Li Jing's big tent was at the table, and the fiery Zhenguo army clan was fluttering on the long flagpole, and he sat under the flag to have lunch with his generals.

Li Cunxiao and a few people arrived a little late, in the past few days, their senior brother was the sixth to be sent by Li Jing to the recruit camp as a coach, commanding a group of recruits to not only practice the military formation, but also to practice physical fitness, to practice riding and shooting, swords and guns, and to teach various regulations and military discipline, which was simply his life. With a group of recruits, it is even more tiring than going to the battlefield and killing the enemy army for a day. At this time, the six of them felt tired, and they climbed up the dirt slope listlessly and walked towards Li Jing.

Although several of them are now serving as instructors in the auxiliary army, they have not been dismissed from their positions in the Black Flag Army. Moreover, as Li Jing's disciples, they are eligible to attend Li Jing's dinner, and Li Jing will also call them every day for dinner. It was just afternoon, in the afternoon of May, the air was full of the scent of locust flowers, and under the green shade of the row of big trees on the dirt slope, it really made people feel that the fatigue of half a day was gone.

At this time, the cook had already brought today's lunch, a canned whale, a canned beef, a canned chicken, and two canned fruits. There are also a few fresh wild vegetables, plus two plates of sauerkraut and pickles. The staple food is millet rice, and the yellow millet rice is fragrant.

Although these dishes are not exquisite, they are better than the portions, although several dishes are canned, but the canned food supplied by the Zhen Guojun is really good. The officers and men of the whole army never get tired of eating. Although the number of meals at lunch is smaller. You can smell the fragrance. Li Cunxiao's saliva still flowed out.

"Sorry, we're late!" Liu Xun first confessed to Li Jing before sitting down.

"Huchen, I think you still haven't sharpened enough." Li Jing sandwiched a piece of braised beef into the bowl and said very plainly: "I thought that a few of you should be able to take charge on your own, but now it seems that it is still far away." However, with a few recruits, he already looks like this, and he is obviously powerless. I really want them to lead the army to fight and take charge alone. Wouldn't it be even more choking? ”

"Hey, Marshal, I'd rather go to the battlefield to fight than take a group of recruits to practice and talk about military discipline. These people are so stupid, they are simply talking to cows. Li Cunxiao looked at the piece of beef in the bowl and drooled, but he could only put down his chopsticks and answer Li Jing's words first. Marshal, I don't bring much, can't I bring a hundred soldiers? ”

Li Jing snorted and didn't look up to pay attention to him. He poured himself a glass of bayberry wine, and skillfully cut the large piece of beef with a dinner knife. The processed canned braised beef was immediately juicy and oily. It's full of incense.

"According to Li Wei's scout report, Wang Xianzhi's headquarters in Yucheng is 5,000 soldiers and horses, 4,000 infantry, and 1,000 cavalry under his direct jurisdiction." Li Jing put the sliced meat on the plate and said, "However, a few troops and horses were found near Yucheng, adding up to about 20,000 people. These people are hiding near Yucheng, and it seems that they are ready to spread their nets and wait for us. ”

"Dashuai, even if there are 30,000 people, if you let the Black Flag Army and the Silver Spear Suburban Festival Army go together, I dare to guarantee that it will only take three days to beat that bullshit Tianyuan average general Wang Xianzhi to the north." Saying that, Li Cunxiao stared at the piece of beef in front of him, and said helplessly: "But if the marshal sends those 5,000 recruits, I don't think they can defeat the enemy." I'm a little worried that those 5,000 sets of equipment will go to waste. ”

Li Jing looked at Li Cunxiao with some dissatisfaction: "There are no incompetent soldiers, only incompetent commanders." In the same way, if the auxiliary army does not train well, it is not their fault, but the fault of the coach. Since you want to lead the troops so much, I'll give you a chance. From now on, you will be the commander of the auxiliary army, commanding 1,000 soldiers and horses in the 1st and 2nd battalions of the left wing. ”

This decision made Li Cunxiao stunned for a while, and even Li Zhen and the others couldn't help but be stunned. This auxiliary army is a cannon fodder army, and now Li Cunxiao is thrown into the auxiliary army, which is too serious. Liu Xun was also the purpose of the establishment of the Zhilu Dao Auxiliary Army, and at this time they all pleaded for Li Cunxiao.

Li Jing's face darkened, "Why, even you look down on the auxiliary army?" What I said at the beginning, no matter what, the auxiliary army is also the Zhenguo army. If you all have such an attitude, how can you coach the auxiliary soldiers well. In that case, then you will all go down for me and bring the auxiliaries. Liu Xun, Gao Siji, and Wang Yanzhang each led two battalions, and Fu Cun and Yang Shihou each commanded one battalion of soldiers and horses. Now that you are tied up with the auxiliary army, how to lead this army, you can work your own. In order to keep you focused, you will be relieved of your duties in the Black Flag Army from now on. ”

Li Jing's decision can be described as a thunderous one, and he threw six disciples into the auxiliary army at once. Although they were all in command in the Black Flag Army, they became commanders in the auxiliary army, and they also commanded two battalions by one person. But everyone knows that the command of the Black Flag Army is much stronger than that of the auxiliary army. For a while, I didn't know why Li Jing was so angry. However, Li Zhen and Guo Chengan, after persuading Li Jing a few words, faintly felt that Li Jing was sharpening a few disciples.

After Liu Xun and the six of them took over the new appointment with a dignified expression, Li Zhen put down the meat cleaver in his hand at this time, and leaned forward slightly: "Our staff department has an idea, this time not only will the auxiliary army go to the battlefield, but also let the auxiliary army fight in the front, and you will march into Yucheng alone." ”

Li Zhen's idea is actually Li Jing's plan. However, now that Li Jing's six disciples have been added to the auxiliary army, Li Zhen feels that this plan may need to be revised. Otherwise, if these six disciples were to be compensated, it would be a big loss.

Li Cunxiao had just cut a piece of beef and was sending it to his mouth, and when he heard this, he hurriedly put it down. Surprised, he asked, "Sending troops alone?" He had some repetition of doubts, he knew the ability of the auxiliary army, and he also knew the purpose of the original establishment of the auxiliary army. He suddenly had an ominous premonition, could it be that the marshal had some bad opinion about them?

"The morale of the auxiliary army is high and the morale is very high!" Li Zhen smiled and said, "Moreover, it is not really for you to fight alone, the army is behind you, and reinforcements will arrive at any time." ”

"High morale and morale?" Wang Yanzhang couldn't help but repeat the words of the marching Sima. Li Jing still sat there eating his canned braised beef, without saying a word.

Liu Xun also smiled bitterly on the side, and sighed: "The recruits of the auxiliary army are indeed high-spirited, but they are just fighting spirits in internal fighting. Just last night, a group of guys from Song Cheng beat up a Ningling guy in order to fight for a bunk. As a result, in the middle of the night, the Ningling man called three fellow villagers, grabbed the sleeping Songcheng man, dragged him out and beat him. The matter was not over, the Songcheng people called their fellow villagers, and as a result, the Songcheng people and Ningling people in the auxiliary army camp fought last night, and more than 200 people were involved in this group fight. In the end, dozens of minor injuries were applied, and more than a dozen broke their hands and feet. If it weren't for the arrival of a few of our brothers, desperately trying to stop it, and if we didn't get it right, we would have killed a few people even if we didn't Xiao Battalion. ”

"Recruits have always been like this, and it is for this reason that officers are set up in the army, and instructors are set up. The fact that there was a crowd of 200 people beating is a lack of discipline on the part of the soldiers, and it shows that your instructor has no way. Li Jing sneered. Li Jing was naturally clear about what happened last night, today he threw six disciples into the auxiliary army, not only because the auxiliary army really needs skilled officers to lead, but also because Li Jing didn't want to promote a few apprentices too quickly, but he was also unwilling to suppress them, this time was an opportunity, if they could perform well, then no one would have an opinion on the promotion later. There is another one, also because of last night's big brawl, which made Li Jing very dissatisfied.

The commander always has a way to win people's hearts and let the soldiers follow, even at the cost of his life. Liu Xun's six brothers are very envious of this skill, but they don't have such charm. They are still too young now, although they have the status of Li Jing's disciples, but sometimes, such an identity makes it difficult for them to convince the public in the army.

Seeing that a few of them were still a little unconvinced, Li Jing smiled slightly and said, "What, not convinced?" Why don't you ask me about when I first joined the army? At that time, I voted for the Solidarity Soldiers, and those soldiers were forcibly recruited, and they were selected from one out of fifteen, which is far worse than today's recruitment. However, from a gang leader to the leader of the team, the uniforms of my soldiers are very close. Later, when I came to Shamen Town, thousands of soldiers were recruited, but I didn't bring them well. Recruits are all the same, but if you don't bring them well, it's your own problem. ”

After saying this, Li Jing turned to Li Zhen. "His disciples can't even take a few of his men, so it's obviously an overestimation to let them play as strikers. In this case, I think they should be transferred to the rear of the palace and be responsible for protecting the logistics baggage. ”

This sentence made Liu Xun and the six of them all stand up at once, and their faces were swollen red. If Li Jing really transferred them to the queen of the palace today, then they would not want to be in the Zhenguo Army in the future.

"Marshal, don't worry about us, no matter what, we can lead the auxiliary army as the vanguard of the army!" The six of them spoke in unison.

Li Jing smiled and looked at the six excited disciples, "Are you sure you can lead the auxiliary army?" It won't be directly destroyed by the grass thieves at that time, then I'm sorry for the five thousand sets of equipment that Song Zhou prepared for you. ”

Li Cunxiao said to Li Jing angrily: "I've already eaten, now I should go and train those rabbit cubs well." Saying that, he turned his head and left, "Dashuai, I will retire first." As he walked, he scolded and whispered, "Damn, Lao Tzu can even command a flock of sheep obediently, I don't believe that I can't fix a group of recruits." ”

Liu Xun and several people also held back their strength and retreated one after another. (To be continued......)
