The veterans of Northern Xinjiang, who are the backbone of the Ding Navy, are all fierce and full of ferocity. They can be called proud soldiers. Especially in the days after the war, the soldiers' blood has not faded. When discussing with each other, they said some nonsense and did some things.
Speculations on military matters are quite common.
Zhang Qian's elder brother, Zhang Jiao, served in the Anzhou Army and was an old friend of Wang Shixian. He had an acquaintance with Guo Ning. During the battle to defend the fortress, Zhang Qian himself led his troops to repeatedly repel the fierce attacks of the Mongolian army until his subordinates were killed or injured.
Even though he was exhausted, he still fought to the death, and finally fainted in a pile of corpses due to excessive bleeding.
After the battle was won, the soldiers cleaned up the battlefield and found that he was still alive and not completely dead.
This kind of deed is one of the more heroic even among his colleagues with similar military exploits. Guo Jiedu also praised him specifically, so everyone knew that Zhang Qian had a good future, and he had very few scruples about what he said.
But Wang Shixian got angry, and Zhang Qian suddenly got scared.
Wang Shixian was originally a bit soft-tempered. When the camp in Xijunhe was transferred, he couldn't handle so many soldiers and civilians, and he needed the young lady of the Lu family to come forward to support him. This matter has always been a laughing stock among the soldiers.
But after the battle in Haicang Town, Wang Shixian used more than 600 soldiers to gather ordinary people and withstood the fierce attack of several thousand households by the Mongolian army; at the cost of hundreds of thousands of casualties of his own soldiers and civilians, many lives of the Mongolian army were exchanged
...This is really awesome!
The soldiers admired his tenacity in command and were afraid of his ruthlessness that had no human life in his eyes. Who dared to take advantage of Wang Shixian? Only a few middle-level officers deplored the soldiers and dared to take advantage of the review of the battle to shout a few words. Now,
Wasn’t it also put down by Lao Wang?
Zhang Qian laughed twice: "Commander, I have no excuse, my back is really hurting today! I have no appetite today! I am also in low spirits! I am going to sleep now!"
When he was about to explain a few more words, Wang Shixian turned around and left with a straight face.
The entire camp fell silent for an instant, and a few soldiers quietly moved away from Zhang Qian.
"Ahem...what are you talking about? We are all discussing together. Am I the only one who is wrong?"
Zhang Qian complained endlessly.
Not long after, two soldiers came with a loud voice: "Who is Zhang Qian?"
According to the rules of the Ding Navy, unless it is in time of war, the punishment of soldiers to military sticks, confinement and above are all in the hands of military judges. The person who also serves as military judge is Guo Ning's personal guard leader Zhao Jue, who is responsible for
Law enforcement is also specially selected.
However, even Zhao Jue would not refute Wang Shixian's reputation. As the most senior leading general, Wang Shixian had to deal with a small and incompetent person with little effort.
"It's me." Zhang Qian sighed: "I'm going to follow you two. Please show some mercy and don't tie me up!"
Ding Navy enforces the law very strictly, and Guo Ning seems to be chatting and laughing with the officers. If anyone really violates military law, he will never hesitate to behead someone in public. Since the law enforcement officers come forward, there is nothing to argue about.
Fortunately, the military law regulations are very clear and clear, and they are preached to the soldiers every now and then, and there is no case of execution without teaching. Zhang Qian estimated that Wang Shixian would not be angry because of his absence from the review, and he probably really told the military government.
For certain major policies of the government, it is natural to be confined for a few days.
Three days of confinement passed in the blink of an eye.
In the small confinement room, Zhang Qian did some boxing in the dark, stretched his legs, and nodded with satisfaction.
Although the several wounds on his body were still painful, they did not affect his movements. It was luck. After fighting in such a fierce battlefield for several days, he did not suffer any serious injuries. There was only a big scar on his face that was more tragic... That was
After his brother died in battle, he drew it himself in order to encourage the soldiers.
As for excessive blood loss, it was nothing to a warrior. Since the food was generous, there was meat for every meal, and it was good to eat and sleep for a few days, Zhang Qian's physical strength recovered very quickly, and he was still the energetic and good man he was before.
There were footsteps outside the confinement room.
Look at the light coming through the skylight. It's not yet past noon. Did some general show mercy and let him go early?
Zhang Qian's appearance is very handsome. Although he has scars, he is not ugly, but has a unique tough temperament. He usually values his appearance, and even if he is in confinement, he does not want to look embarrassed.
People looked at him, so he quickly straightened his robe, cheered up, and lifted up the hem of his robe to wipe his face.
The two soldiers who were still in charge of military law came over and opened the door and took Zhang Qian out.
"The confinement is over. General Zhang Shi, please come with us."
Zhang Qian hurriedly followed and found that they did not return to the camp where the soldiers rested in the military fort, but walked outside.
Zhang Qian frowned and asked tentatively: "Brothers, where are we going?"
The two soldiers ignored him.
After all, Zhang Qian had just suffered a loss and suddenly broke into a cold sweat.
After walking a few steps further, several familiar soldiers from the camp were laughing and waiting nearby, stuffing a packed package into Zhang Qian's arms. Zhang Qian knew as soon as he touched it that the package contained his personal belongings and his usual short knife.
What is this? Am I being fired? I shouldn’t be? Wang Shixian, you old guy, why are you doing this?
Zhang Qian wanted to curse in an instant, but he saw the soldiers walking beside him with winks, and they all said: "Old Zhang has been promoted now. Remember to treat him to a drink when he comes back! Hahaha!"
Gao Sheng? Please drink?
Where did Gaosheng come from? Why do you have to invite me to drink?
Zhang Qian wanted to ask clearly. He walked a little slower. The soldiers in front were walking far away with sonorous steps. He quickly held the package and trotted to follow.
Running to the empty space in front of the military fort gate, Zhang Qian suddenly stopped.
I saw a formation of soldiers and horses in the empty field.
Flags fluttered in the wind, and spears and spears were held high like a forest. The top blades shone coldly in the early winter sun. Below the flags and spears, there were rows of soldiers.
Zhang Qian could tell at a glance that many of those soldiers were originally from Laizhou households. Although a few of them had made meritorious service by killing enemies under Guo Zhongyuan and received special awards. But most of them were poorly trained and their standing postures were
The way to hold the spear is different for each person.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It must have been training just now, many people have sweat on their foreheads, and their breathing is a little heavy. But at this moment, the whole team is standing in place, motionless. Occasionally, a few soldiers are uneasy
He twisted his body and was immediately stopped by the officers' stern eyes.
Officers with solemn expressions stood in front of each group of soldiers, staring at the subordinate soldiers. Many of those generals, captains, lieutenants, etc. were acquaintances of Zhang Qian.
Zhang Qian followed two soldiers and stood beside the queue. Not far away from him, some people were watching. It was obvious that the soldiers had done nothing, but they applauded and cheered from time to time. Zhang Qian was a little embarrassed and tried to raise his hand to greet the old man.
He was an acquaintance, but no one paid him any attention.
At this moment, several people came out of the queue safely.
The leader is none other than Guo Ning.
"My sword skills and spear skills are both unfamiliar, and they can't be mastered in three to five days. The formation is even more ugly. I had to push it a few times to get it like this, but when I moved around, it fell apart. But..."
Guo Ning turned around and looked at the soldiers: "The new soldiers are all in good physical condition; they have also killed people, have courage, and are bloody. With these two items, the others can be practiced slowly. You train with all your heart, and during the march,
Don’t relax, Chuuya.”
Accompanying Guo Ning is Xiao Moule, a Khitan man with a strong build and bandaged legs.
Guo Ning saw Zhang Qian, laughed, and waved: "Come!"
Zhang Qian threw the package away and hurried forward to salute.
Guo Ning took Zhang Qian's arm and asked him to stand in front of Xiao Mo Le: "If you include him, you have all the three generals you lack."
"One is Zhang Hui, the leader of the scouts, who is known as Zhang Fei's rival, and the other is Guo Alin, Guo Zhongyuan's right-hand subordinate. You have seen both of those two. The third one is this person, Wang Shixian's subordinate Zhang Qian."
Guo Ning patted Zhang Qian on the shoulder and said to Xiao Mo Le: "When Zhang Qian was defending Haicang Town, he stabbed his face with a knife to show his will, inspiring the soldiers to fight to the end, holding on to the city gate and not retreating. He also killed the Mongols himself.
There were several soldiers in the army. Lao Wang said that it was the most tenacious and courageous feat he had ever seen in his life, and it was the mainstay of the entire army."
He turned to Zhang Qian: "Lao Wang has recommended to me several times, saying that you have the talent to lead an army. You are not just a general, but you can serve as a lieutenant and a general. That's good. Now that the new army is formed, you can
Come and be a general. Your brother, Zhang Jiao, is an old friend of mine. He has a soul in heaven, and he must be happy to see this... You have to work hard and don't let your brother be embarrassed."
Having said this, Guo Ning chuckled twice and leaned into Zhang Qian's ear: "Don't talk nonsense from now on, and don't be frivolous. Do you understand?"
In the queue of generals behind them, voices could not be suppressed. Many people were envious of it. Expanding the army will indeed bring opportunities for promotion. Many people know that Zhang Qian, who has made great achievements, will definitely do so.
It was of great use. But from an ordinary general to a general, he jumped three levels in a row. What a favor!
Zhang Qian couldn't help but moisten the corners of his eyes. He knelt down on the ground, pressed his hands on the withered yellow weeds, and touched his forehead to the ground: "Zhang Qian understands! Zhang Qian, I am willing to die for the Commander-in-Chief!"
