In the blink of an eye, everyone in the hall fell down, and only Zhang Zhaolong stood with a smile.
He took a pot of tea, walked to Zhang Mingjian, and sprinkled some tea on his face.
The sweat medicine mixed with wine will wake up automatically when exposed to water.
Zhang Mingjian didn't say anything after he woke up, and he and Zhang Zhaolong started to wake up all their own people.
"Go out and wake up all the brothers. As for the Red Scarf Army outside, keep those who are willing to surrender, and kill those who are unwilling!"
Zhang Zhaolong asked: "Where are these red scarf generals?"
Zhang Mingjian walked up to Zhao Ping expressionlessly, chopped off his head with a knife, and sneered: "My good friend, I'm sorry. You caused me heavy losses, so I can only use you to replenish my blood!"
The smell of blood soon filled the entire Qingyi Village. Under the silver moon, the blood on the ground was illuminated dark black.
"Brother, only more than 800 people surrendered, the others were killed!" Zhang Zhaolong looked a little pale.
Zhang Mingjian was startled for a moment, then nodded and said: "I didn't expect that the soldiers Zhao Jun used were quite brave."
Zhang Zhaolong whispered: "Brothers also suffered more than a hundred casualties. Even with the addition of these red scarf soldiers, there are only just over two thousand!"
Zhang Mingjian sat back on the tiger leather chair and said in a deep voice: "I know what you are worried about. With our current strength, we cannot capture Longtan Village!"
Zhang Zhaolong breathed a sigh of relief and said fiercely: "Then let's recuperate and develop our strength first, and we will cause trouble in Longtan Village in the future!"
"I can't wait that long! You go to Dingyuan to find Liu Ju. As long as he can help me capture Longtan Village, I am willing to give him Qingniu Mountain and respect him as the leader of the village!"
……
"Haha, we defeated Qingyi Village. Among the heroes of the green forest on Yangzhou Road, our village leader should take the top spot!"
"The leader of the village is a woman, how can he be considered a hero?"
"Bah, the leader of the village is stronger than a man, how can he not be a hero?"
"You, you bunch of ignorant frogs in a well, really think that Zhang Mingjian is the best hero in Yangzhou?"
"Monkey, you said Zhang Mingjian is not number one, then who is?"
"Of course it's Liu Ju from Dingyuan!"
Hearing Liu Ju's name, Li Er finally looked up.
The red sun is setting in the west, it is already afternoon, October is approaching, the weather is getting cooler, the autumn breeze is blowing, and waves of sweet-scented osmanthus are blowing up from the mountainside.
On the school field at the back of Longtan Mountain, 1,200 soldiers were neatly formed into twelve centurions. In front of the formation, there were thirteen centurions.
Li Er is the extra one.
Except for Wang Da, the other centurions did not want to talk to him. Li Er also did not want to ask for trouble and stood far away. He did not raise his head until he heard everyone talking about Liu Ju.
Liu Ju was a wandering bandit with three thousand men under his command, who plundered everywhere like locusts. He was a headache for officials everywhere.
When all the centurions heard Liu Ju's name, they all fell silent. Only because Liu Ju was erratic, no one thought of him for a moment. In terms of strength, he was indeed superior to Zhang Mingjian.
At this time, a centurion snorted and said: "We had a great victory yesterday, but the military advisor took away the weapons collected by everyone. It makes no sense!"
Wang Da suddenly became angry: "Sun Hu, how dare you speak ill of the military advisor behind his back?"
Sun Hu snorted: "Originally, the leader of the stronghold has tacitly allowed everyone to take it by themselves. The military advisor is better, and his control is more lenient than the leader of the stronghold!"
He glanced at Li Er and said disdainfully: "If you promote a man who has just entered the village a few days ago to a centurion, doesn't this break the rules of the village?"
The mountain boar said solemnly: "Huzi, Li Er killed five people in a battle yesterday, and later killed four people with a long gun. How can such a good man not be a centurion?"
Sun Hu said angrily: "Then he only fought one battle. We fought so many battles with the leader of Dazhai back then, but his achievements in one battle can't be compared to him?"
"Sun Hu, you don't accept the military advisor's decision, don't you?" A female voice came from afar.
Sun Hu trembled all over and almost knelt down, saying hurriedly: "Master of the Dazhai, I, I don't... dare not..."
Qin Lingjun walked over with a frosty face, Zhang Yangquan and Qin Lingsi followed her on the left and right.
Qin Lingsi glared at him and shouted: "Don't back down yet!"
Sun Hu hurriedly retreated to stand in front of his centurion team, and the other centurions did the same. Only Li Er stood alone.
Zhang Yangquan glanced at Sun Hu, who was also a familiar face.
The most important thing about running an army is that rewards and punishments should be clear and personal emotions should not be brought into it.
Qin Lingjun did a good job in this regard, but after being a bandit for a long time, she still acquired some bandit habits, such as tacitly allowing the village soldiers to seize the loot!
In Zhang Yangquan's opinion, this is an important reason for the corruption of military discipline! This time he hid weapons privately, next time it might be gold and silver, and next time it might be a woman!
The most important thing in the army is not bravery, but discipline!
Zhang Yangquan originally did not want to get involved in military training, but after this incident, he changed his mind. After discussing with Qin Lingjun, he added a morning training, which he was directly responsible for.
The three of them went up to the commander's platform together, and Qin Lingjun retreated to the left, leaving Zhang Yangquan in the center.
Zhang Yangquan took a step forward and said to the soldiers of the village: "Yesterday's battle, some of you participated in it personally, and some of you must have heard about it. The soldiers all fought very well, and they showed the prestige of our Longtan Village!" p>
Someone shouted: "Military advisor, since our brothers have merit, why do we need to confiscate everyone's things?"
Qin Lingjun's expression changed and she was about to stop. Zhang Yangquan waved his hand and motioned for her to hand it over to him. He looked around and said loudly:
"The Shanzhai is about clear rewards and punishments. Of course you should be rewarded for your merits, but you are not allowed to choose your own rewards. Everything is decided by the Shanzhai! Whatever the Shanzhai rewards you, you get! If the Shanzhai takes it without permission, it is a violation of military regulations.
!"
Li Er was slightly startled after hearing Zhang Yangquan's words.
His own troops would not be so strict. We are all brothers in life and death. After winning a battle, he would be more indulgent and let his subordinates secretly hide some benefits.
However, if you think about it carefully, the more rewards he gives, not only will it not make his soldiers loyal, but it will also lead to alienation. Zhao Junyong is the best example.
Zhang Yangquan continued: "Now we will reward you based on your merits. Li Er will come forward to listen to the rewards!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Li Er didn't have time to think too much, took a deep breath, and went up to the general platform.
Zhang Yangquan faced the people below and said loudly: "Li Er killed nine enemies in a battle yesterday. He will be recorded as a great meritorious service and promoted to centurion!"
Li Er felt a little complicated in his heart, as he never expected that he would also be rewarded.
Zhang Yangquan said again: "The mountain pig comes forward to listen to the reward!"
The wild boar quickly came to Dianjiangtai.
Zhang Yangquan said: "The mountain pig fought yesterday and killed five enemies. It will be recorded as a medium meritorious service. Three months ago, it went to Jiangdu with the second village leader to perform a mission and successfully made Miao Daheng retreat. It will be recorded as a great meritorious service. He killed several people outside Shen Mansion.
Known as a Mongolian, he rescued Shen Qianqian and was credited with a small merit. He was promoted to centurion!"
The wild boar took a deep breath and bowed to Zhang Yangquan.
Zhang Yangquan continued: "You have two medium skills and one great skill. When you are promoted to captain of a thousand in the future, you will be selected based on each person's merit!"
The mountain boar was stunned for a moment and said: "Military advisor, will there be a commander in the village?"
Zhang Yangquan smiled and said: "Of course there will be."
The wild boar clenched his fingers, and a thought suddenly came to his mind - if the village continues to grow and develop, maybe one day he will have a chance to take revenge!
"Wang Da came forward to listen!"
Wang Da held his head high and strode to the dianjiang platform.
"Yesterday in the battle, you killed three enemies and received a minor demerit. Two months ago, you helped me build a greenhouse and received a major merit. Also two months ago, you ate cabbage secretly and received a minor demerit. You were promoted to centurion.
!"
Wang Da's eyes turned slightly red and he said loudly: "Yes!"
Although the mistakes were written down, they were indeed my fault and there was nothing to say. I worked hard and felt relieved.
Next, Monkey, Geng San, Geng Si and others also came forward to listen to the appreciation, and everyone's achievements were clearly remembered.
Sun Hu listened for a long time and suddenly shouted: "Military advisor, the credits you record are all after you came to the mountain stronghold. Don't the credits you made before coming to the mountain stronghold not be counted?"
Qin Lingjun glared at him and said coldly: "You mean, when you performed meritorious services in the past, the leader of this village didn't reward you?"
Sun Hu hurriedly said: "Master of Dazhai, I don't mean that!"
Qin Lingjun raised her hand and said, "There is no need to say it. You all followed me on the wrong path in the past. Don't mention the things you did. From now on, everyone will follow the military advisor and you will definitely be on the right path!"<
/p>
This is equivalent to putting Zhang Yangquan above her.
Zhang Yangquan couldn't help but look at her, and Qin Lingjun also happened to look at her.
"Military advisor, keep going!" She smiled slightly.
Zhang Yangquan felt the trust in her smile and smiled back. The two of them had a tacit understanding in their hearts, so they turned around and continued to award the reward without saying anything.
In the end, among the twelve centurions, ten were old soldiers and only two were new soldiers. In addition to Li Er, another man named Xu Baisheng was tall and majestic. Like Li Er, he killed nine people and achieved great success. Sun Hu and several old village soldiers who temporarily acted as centurions were demoted to ten-centurions, and their faces were a little ugly, but with Lord Qin Ling here, no one dared to make any mistakes.
After the reward was over, Zhang Yangquan said solemnly: "Yesterday's battle, two people in our village died in battle, one was named Wang Gou'er and the other was named Fang Ba. They sacrificed their lives heroically for the village, and the village will never forget them. The village will do it for them.
The two of them will take care of their funeral affairs, and each of their families will receive a pension of 30 kilograms!"
All the soldiers below were moved. In the past, the bandits in the village were killed, and the villagers just helped support their families. How is it like now, not only the funeral arrangements, but also food and pensions?
It is even more unimaginable for the refugees. They saw so many dead people along the way, and they often walked through the gate of hell. How could they have imagined that the same human life would be so valued in the village.
