Chen Tai took him back to the camp to pack his things. In fact, there was nothing to pack. But before leaving, Chen Tai sincerely advised him: "In our Holy Han Army, there are many children from poor families who can become captains.
There are even fewer people who reach the rank of military candidate. Although you are now a captain of the military, it is very difficult to get promoted. It is better to take the opportunity to build a good relationship and become a leading captain in the future, holding real power.
"The so-called leading captain is a captain like Wang Jian, who commands infantry, archers or cavalry. However, Zhang Xiaowu's current Dianjun captain has no soldiers and often offends people, so Chen Taicai warned him carefully.
Zhang Xiaowu nodded heavily.
Zhang Xiaowu returned to Yizi Camp to collect the account. Luo Zhen first arranged for him to rest in a single room, introduced to him the taboos and concerns of each captain and recorder in the army, and also told him some camp rules. Finally, Luo Zhen said:
"It's a miracle that you became a captain just one month after joining the Forbidden Army. However, there are many rules in the army. You need to learn and respect them. Even those who are lower than you in military rank should not be provoked at will. The Dian Army is in charge of maintaining military discipline.
, but military discipline is not important nowadays, what you need is to use the divine arm bow to help the soldiers shoot the invading enemies."
"I understand." Zhang Xiaowu said with a smile, "What I need to do is to protect the military commander."
Luo Zhen laughed loudly: "You are a smart man."
"Thank you Captain Luo for your suggestion. I will talk less and listen more." Zhang Xiaowu said with a smile.
Shortly after Luo Zhen left, Han Zhong came to record the march. Zhang Xiaowu heard from Luo Zhen that this man was in charge of the distribution of grain, grain, and merit records for Yizi Camp. He was a decent man but unsmiling. Han Zhong's eyes were narrow and dark, which made people look at him.
It was shuddering to see that even though he was a scholar, he killed more people than ordinary generals. Han Zhong told Zhang Xiaowu that the military salary of a lieutenant was much higher than that of a corps commander. Soldiers in the Han army received 800 taels of military pay per month, and those who became a corps commander earned three taels.
The amount of silver is about 3,000 taels of silver. A senior officer's salary is seven taels of silver, a captain's salary is fifteen taels of silver, and a school lieutenant's salary is forty taels of silver.
Zhang Xiaowu asked the regiment general how much silver he received. Han Zhong glared at him and said, "Only people from the Ministry of War know how much silver the general receives."
Zhang Xiaowu received forty taels of silver as military pay. He held it in his hand and said with emotion: "The most money I have ever seen in my life is these forty taels of silver."
Han Zhong's long-smiling face was also amused by him, but he quickly stopped smiling and said with a straight face: "Be prepared, Quan Yi may launch a major attack."
"Grand attack? Why?"
Han Zhong's eyes flashed and he said: "Yesterday you almost shot and killed Wuhuan King. I guess he didn't attack during the day just to raise strength. You just need to protect the military commander and protect his safety."
Zhang Xiaowu nodded and said: "The military commander has cultivated me like this. I am humble - a low-ranking official - and I will definitely die in return." Han Zhong nodded and left.
After getting ready and saluting, Zhang Xiaowu went to the camp to meet the military commander Ding Yi. After all, Ding Yi was old. He caught a cold wind last night, so he rested for a while today and was eating decoction in the backyard. In Zhang Xiaowu's impression, Ding Yi was like a steel gun.
Standing still, I saw him squatting by the bed, drinking medicine, and noticed that his hair also had some gray hair. However, it was not that Ding Yi was not feeling well when he was squatting and drinking medicine, it was just the tradition of his hometown. It is said that he
His hometown is from Bingzhou, and he moved to Longdu with his father when he was fifteen. When he was young, he developed the habit of squatting down to eat in Bingzhou, but now he can't change it. He is often laughed at, but Ding Yi doesn't care at all.
Seeing Zhang Xiaowu coming, Ding Yi stood up and asked him to sit down. Ding Yi cherished talents, especially when the other party came from a poor family, and he had a deep connection with the soldiers of the poor family. Ding Yi was born in a noble family, and his shooting skills were extraordinary, and he was better than the emperor.
Qi Gong, like other generals, looked down on the children of the poor family. However, when the Ding family faced a disaster, the former aristocratic leader hurriedly distanced himself from him. Instead, the soldiers of the poor family defended him in every possible way and tried to clear up his grievances.
Ding Yi said, don't you want to learn archery? I will teach you the method now. Zhang Xiaowu was overjoyed. Ding Yi said that archery skills are difficult to practice only if they are simple. The skills of archery skills are not learned but seen, but practiced. The so-called
Practice makes perfect. Ding Yi started practicing archery at the age of seven, working day and night. However, he was ashamed to say that since he became a military commander, he had practiced less and was not as good as some of the soldiers in the archery formation.
Ding Yi gave Zhang Xiaowu all his knowledge and experience on archery, which aroused Zhang Xiaowu's desire for knowledge and curiosity. After all, Zhang Xiaowu lived in the safest country in the world in his previous life. Not to mention bows and arrows, he did not even touch controlled knives.
However, when I heard Ding Yi's experience, he was extremely serious. A teacher likes to learn the most, so he taught him more carefully.
After talking for half an hour, Ding Yi took a two-stone bow and said that he could practice shooting with two-stone bows on weekdays. After he became proficient, he could gradually increase his skills with three-stone bows, four-stone bows and even five-stone bows.
"You can't lose weight in archery. You have to remember that you need to shoot two thousand times a day and keep updating every day. Only after a year can you make some progress." After Ding Yi said this, he shot an arrow at someone a hundred steps away.
Bullseye stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Although this shooting skill has not been used for a long time, it has not been completely lost."
Zhang Xiaowu said: "Marquis, when can I see your shooting skills?"
Ding Yi said: "Practice as I say, maybe five years."
Zhang Xiaowu said: "If I practice thousands of arrows every day -"
Ding Yi glared and laughed and scolded: "That's nonsense. If you practice thousands of arrows every day, you won't be able to open your arms the next day. When people are weak, they need to practice according to their ability."
"I humbly remember it."
"You are a lower official. You are already a captain in the Dian Army. It is against the rules to talk about being humble again. Remember."
"Here."
Perhaps because Wu Litai was shocked, the alien army did not attack the city for three days in a row. The city boasted about Zhang Xiaowu even more. Some people even came to see what Zhang Xiaowu looked like. When they saw that he was a handsome young general, they immediately started shouting.
Ding Yi wanted to help him find a suitable family, but Ding Yi took the opportunity to laugh and refused to stop him, causing the other generals to jeer.
Zhang Xiaowu doesn't talk much on weekdays. He plays the role of "Chief Guard" of Ding Yi, which almost takes away Ding Yi's real job as Chief of Guards. However, he can see that Ding Yi deliberately cultivates him and takes him with him wherever he goes.
, I did learn a lot during this period and gained a lot of knowledge.
The meetings of Yizi Camp are held once a day, and the meetings of the 27th Regiment are held once every three days. Zhang Xiaowu followed Ding Yi to attend the meeting of the General's Mansion. Because of his status as a captain of the Dian Army, he was qualified to enter. The other battalion troops
Only then did he meet the legendary marksman captain Zhang Xiaowu. Seeing such a young and handsome man with different expressions, he suspected that this man was either the illegitimate son of that noble official or a rabbit...
When Zhang Xiaowu saw the looks in everyone's eyes, he felt unhappy, but he did not show any expression or retort. After the meeting, Ding Yi said to him: "A tree as beautiful as a forest will be destroyed by the wind. If it cannot be destroyed, you will be."
Canglan, who is unique in the forest." Zhang Xiaowu understood his love and care. It seemed that Ding Yi treated him as a disciple. Although the two of them had never been apprentices, he was thinking about when he would find an opportunity to ask for apprenticeships.
Ding Yi.
Sure enough, on May 18th, Wuhuan Xiao Wang Wuli Ta was unwilling to be humiliated and launched a violent attack. The Wuzi people attacked the north of the city, the Shengfan people attacked the east of the city, the Wuhuan people and the Tartar people attacked the south of the main gate, and Yizi people
The west gate where the battalion was holding was attacked jointly by the Yuezhi people and the Beiyi people.
The black canine barbarians came up and killed tens of thousands of them. The defenders of Yizi Camp had less than 5,000 people, and nearly half of them were injured. Except for the seriously injured sergeants, all the lightly injured soldiers carried sandbags and responded to the battle calmly.
Yi stood proudly on the west tower, waved the flag in his hand, and shouted loudly: "The first team, the second team, hold fast, the third team, the fourth team support, the bow team is ready to fight back!"
"Huhuhuhu——"
Everyone looked up and saw black arrows coming through the air. They immediately hid behind the barrier. Several soldiers holding large shields also protected Ding Yi extremely well. Zhang Xiaowu held a divine arm bow and hid behind the shield.
Wait for the Inuyi arrows to rain down and kill the enemy.
Some sergeants could not withstand the impact of flying arrows and were hit by arrows. They fell to the ground one after another. More and more sergeants were hit by arrows around him. Ding Yi shouted anxiously: "You can stop it! You can stop it!"
"Here!"
The sergeants lowered their heads and waited for the rain of arrows. After a moment or so, the dog barbarians rushed up with siege ladders.
