After seeing the news, Wang Zheng struggled in his heart for a long time.
His original plan was to take Yunting and rest the entire army, and then use his troops against Langya and Pengcheng a few years later.
Can.....
Holding the bamboo slip in his hand, Wang Zheng looked gloomy and began to ponder.
Since the officials in Langya only thought that they were refugees entering the country and did not know that our army was approaching, it would be a pity to miss this opportunity where the enemy is overt and we are covert.
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard the pavilion chief still cursing and cursing. Wang Zheng looked impatient, and then his eyes turned cold.
Just as he was about to wave his hand to signal his own soldiers to kill this man, he raised his hand but paused when he was about to put it down.
It stopped in mid-air for a while.
After thinking about it for a moment, Wang Zheng sighed inwardly.
That’s all.
Now he is the leader of an army, with more than ten thousand people under his command. He can be disloyal to people like Yuan Shu or even Cao Cao, but he can't keep his word to his own soldiers...
But you must never fail to keep your promise.
Even if there is a system to lock loyalty, it will not work!
Since it has been stated in advance, even if there is another reason to send troops, we must fulfill our promise and let the soldiers rest until the end of the year.
Now that the decision had been made, Wang Zheng no longer hesitated. He first waved his hand and ordered the people to suppress the pavilion chief and other officials for safekeeping. At the same time, he once again ordered Kaohsiung to be responsible for the city defense here, and no one was allowed in or out.
At the same time, sharp-tongued people like Yu Jin and Pan Zhang were asked to come forward to appease the people and merchants in the city.
At this rate, it must be delayed for a month, and the news may not be leaked, right?
The same goes for raids later in the year.
After walking out of the lobby, Wang Zheng put his hands behind his hands and raised his head, looking at the scenery at the end of the year, thinking like this in his heart.
Indeed, even in a place like Yunting where merchants come and go frequently, there are not too many people coming and going in the dead of winter.
After some operations, it is indeed safe for the time being.
...
When the 20,000 troops swarmed in, Yuncheng, which was not large at all, was filled with people and instantly became crowded.
After seeing this scene, Wang Zheng discussed with Xu Fang, Yu Jin and others, and then sent Wu Sheng to take people to make arrangements for the previous camp.
Refugees will definitely not be able to enter this city anymore, and they won't be able to be contained.
Then go to the east near the natural iron mine.
We set up camp again, unloaded a large amount of baggage brought from Linzi, and then transported it to Yuncheng.
That night, when the 20,000 soldiers knew that they could stay in the city for the night, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
Finally no longer have to sleep in the wild...
The cold wind that penetrated the tent from time to time was really unbearable.
The thatched cottage is full of sweet dreams, but the sun is getting late outside the window.
A sweet night.
On the second day, when he saw the new look of his soldiers, everyone was full of energy and high spirits, Wang Zheng felt deeply that his decision was right.
In just one night, the previous depression and resentment was wiped away, and morale was restored a lot.
One day later, the people of Yuncheng saw that this group of unfamiliar troops had done nothing dangerous except being cautious about leaving the city in the past two days.
After the order in the city was restored...at least on the surface, it was restored to the past, Wang Zheng began to reorganize the army again.
Because along the way, he discovered many problems.
First, nature is the positive side.
Since setting off from Linzi, more than 2,000 people have applied to join the team.
This surprised Wang Zheng, but after some understanding, he suddenly realized it.
The four iron principles of life were the same in ancient times.
It was difficult to travel all the way in the coldest month of winter. People outside the Heavenly Army, whether they were refugees, Tianxiong camp, or rebel soldiers such as Zhang Rao, Chen Jiao and others, endured hardships with the Heavenly Army. With daily support for each other, our friendship actually increased a lot.
Naturally, the Heavenly Army worshiped Wang Zheng like a god, and they were influenced by it. Although most of them were resentful, a small number of them began to recognize Wang Zheng.
These two thousand people made Wang Zheng feel as if he had found a treasure.
Because not only have their bodies and minds passed the systematic verification, but the harsh environment has also tested their spirits. They can be described as absolute elites!
With their joining, the total number of Yellow Turban militiamen in the Tiangang Army has officially exceeded 10,000.
On the other hand, it was Wang Zheng who discovered the current major flaws in his own army.
The upward channel is blocked!
The system selects the bodies of the team, and loyalty is absolutely guaranteed.
But the system not only requires the other party to recognize Wang Zheng from the bottom of his heart, but what's even more troublesome is that even Wang Zheng himself doesn't know this degree.
Anyway, it's quite high.
This is troublesome.
This army has been treated differently since Zhao County. In terms of equipment supply, daily meals, etc., the Tianzhu Battalion is better than the Tiangang Army, and the Tiangang Army is better than the reserve Tianxiong Camp, Tianfu Camp and Chen Jiao.
The other parts are naturally at the bottom.
Although many people are dissatisfied with this situation, there are also people who are envious and want to work hard to win the favor of the king...
As a result, they found that it was useless.
The promotion route of this team is completely unique.
Wang Zheng, a novice in history and military affairs, has finally discovered this.
This is absolutely impossible.
He is not afraid of resentment, but it cannot dampen the enthusiasm of good intentions.
In particular, there are some people with outstanding abilities who have some recognition of Wang Zheng, but because they are not "special" enough, they are always rejected.
Wang Zheng also figured it out.
Loyalty is important, but ability is equally important.
Promotions of internal departments can no longer be solely based on the system.
So he reorganized it again.
The team was re-divided into one battalion and two armies.
Tianzhu Camp, Tiangang Army, and Earth Army.
The ground army is the rebel army of Zhang Rao, Chen Jiao and others, mixed with the remaining Tianxiong camp.
They were divided into six groups, each led by the three rebel leaders Yu Jin, Pan Zhang, Zhang Rao and Chen Jiao who had previously surrendered.
Although not all personnel have joined the system, half of the leaders are system heroes.
The other three are not considered unstable factors.
Over the past few days, the longer Chen Jiao and others stayed, the better they understood the combat power of Wang Zheng's main force. The strongest emotions that arose were nothing but shock and confusion.
What a strong elite! So many elites!
Why so strong?
Why so many?
While they were puzzled, they were also increasingly glad that their original choice was so wise. If they had resisted...
I don’t dare to think about it, I don’t dare to think deeply.
At the same time, these three people became increasingly optimistic about Wang Zheng's future.
A typical example is Chen Jiao.
Whenever I have something to do these days, I have to find an excuse to go to Wang Zheng to express my loyalty.
It's a pity that he was allowed to talk like a lotus and didn't see the application to join the team, so Wang Zheng never trusted him.
After the reorganization, Wang Zheng started another action.
It’s called: One step to reach the sky.
As the name suggests, it is because the generals of the six bureaus, including the ban, select elites from the local army.
Or those who performed well in previous battles...
Or someone who is serious about daily training and has a strong body...
These people, as long as they are recommended by various ministries, will be incorporated into the Tiangang Army even if they are not recognized by the system.
When the Tiangang Army has more than 10,000 people, even if there are some non-system soldiers, it will not be a big problem if Wang Zheng wants to come.
This time, the superiority of the fittest was clearly identified, and many soldiers of the ground army were gearing up. Those who had performed poorly in the previous battle thought that they should work harder next time, and at the same time, they should work harder in daily training.
Seeing the excitement among the people, Wang Zheng seemed to think it was not enough, and once again added fuel to the fire and issued a general order.
This time, not only the earth army, but also the heavenly army were excited.
However, Wang Zheng planned to hold a martial arts competition before the New Year, with events including fists and kicks, weapons, riding, archery, etc.
Regardless of whether they obtain excellent rankings or perform outstandingly, they will not only receive rewards such as equipment and money, but also additional rewards.
The soldiers of the local army were rewarded with "Tiangen" and were directly promoted to the Tiangang Army.
Last time, the soldiers of the heavenly army were "favored by God", but the specific situation was not stated.
Wang Zheng then added:
Except for the Tenchu camp, the entire army must participate.
The previous sentence is necessary. The Tianzhu camp is full of second-level soldiers. If they participate, it will destroy the balance.
The last sentence is nonsense. If I didn't say it, everyone would be enthusiastic and active.
As for rewards, everything else is fine...
What is divine grace?
While everyone in the ground army was confused, the soldiers of the Tiangang Army were suddenly stunned and their breathing became a little heavier.
Could it be that the general is about to perform another miracle?
Thinking of the feeling before, I almost instantly felt that my body became stronger and my hands and feet became more flexible...
