Volume 1 Who are the heroes of the world? Section 23 The old army
Cao Wanchuan fell into deep thought again.
Today, the theory that came out of Jiang Feng's mouth completely subverted his normal thinking. The truth that was taken for granted in the past seemed to be overturned all at once. There were so many ant thieves and the people followed them. Are they all troublemakers? Are they all born to rebel and rebellion? This seems a bit unreasonable.
Seeing Cao Wanchuan pondering and silent, as if he was trapped in his nonsense theory, Jiang Feng hurriedly said: "Mr. Yuhou, these problems are too far away from us, and they are not something you and I should consider. What we need to consider now is how to overcome the current difficulties."
"Hmph, you have started the rumors. How can we explain to the governor?" Cao Wanchuan also had a headache.
"Mr. Yuhou, since you have accepted my suggestion, it proves that you also believe that ant thieves will invade Guangzhou. It doesn't seem important where the ant thieves come from. What does it have to do with Congru and Xu? As long as the ant thieves come and the others come, we will not be considered a transgression."
Jiang Feng didn't say what happened next. If the ant thief was really as large as he predicted, it would be a question whether Guangzhou could survive. At that time, who would have thought about why a small Gushi County was preparing for war in advance? Xu family, Humph, let's wait until this disaster.
"Well, everything will do as you said!" Cao Wanchuan gritted his teeth. If the ant thief really did not swept over as Jiang Feng said, then he would probably have to be guilty of betrayal.
Although I was just recruiting soldiers and the Gushi Army to make up for the shortage of personnel, the governor knew the lack of personnel as well. Recruiting soldiers without authorization seemed to be just a normal move, but it could easily arouse the suspicion of the governor. The governor himself knew very well.
Jiang Feng had an inexplicable sense of fulfillment, and Cao Wanchuan's delegation made him his spokesperson.
Fortunately, most of the officers sent to the Gushi Army were old soldiers with similar situations as Cao Wanchuan. They had no background and were not good at welcomeing each other, so they fell into the remote Gushi Army.
The five hundred soldiers in the rear camp were replenished within three days. If they were not recruited enough, they had to use the means of forcibly arresting their husbands. At this time, Jiang Feng could only complete it according to the common practice.
Fortunately, a large number of people frightened by the news of the attack on the ant thief flocked to the dilapidated Gushi County, which made the recruitment of soldiers and husbands a lot of people suddenly gained a lot of resources. The fifth battalion completed the full task within five days according to regulations.
"Commander Jiang, do you think this ant thief will really come?" The one who spoke was Gu Minghai, the commander of the front battalion. He was also an old army who had been rolling in the Gushi army for many years. His black and thin cheeks were unshaven, and his figure seemed to have strength.
Although Gu Minghai was a commoner, he was a little different from others. His family was a military household for generations. Although his ancestors had been wandering around in the army and were unable to be promoted to a high-level officer, the experience accumulated by his ancestors also made him much better in martial arts and tactics than others.
Gu Minghai tried Jiang Feng, and Jiang Feng could also measure the other party's level from the other party's temptation. It should be said that he was just as good as himself and was slightly inferior to himself, because the other party relied on practical experience to improve himself and lacked theoretical guidance to achieve sublimation.
This is probably a common problem for the old army in the army. They have experienced countless tests of life and death, and have gained the sudden experience of enlightenment that Jiang Feng and others, like martial artists who have been practicing martial arts since childhood, cannot get. However, they do not understand the words and do not understand literature and science, which makes them only wander at the level of martial arts. It can be said that there is no possibility of promotion.
In fact, they are even hard to even reach the threshold for promotion, because no one is willing to give them guidance, or it is difficult to improve in a short period of time. This is the advantage of practicing in the martial arts rule theory system.
"Lao Gu, it seems that you hope the ant thief will come? Do you really want us to be dismembered and eaten by the ant thief?"
The joke is Xiong Gui, the commander of Zuoying.
The sturdy body as a bear is in sharp contrast to Gu Minghai's sword strip. His beard and halberd are wide, his mouth is thick, and his garlic nose is shaking from time to time, just like a bear looking for food at any time. It is also in line with his surname. The slightly worn leather armor is wrapped under his waist and a half-new belt is reluctant to wrap around it. The copper beast-head swallowing ring is shiny. The waist is hung not by the stern sword that officers often hang, but by an infantry horizontal sword.
It should be said that these commanders are still remarkable in terms of martial arts level, and basically reach the peak level they can reach at this stage. This also shows that the Gwangju Army still has a considerable level with Xu Wangting's deliberate preparation. However, due to the strength of Gwangju itself, the combat power of ordinary soldiers is difficult to further improve. You must know that further enhancement of these strengths is to exchange for better weapon armor and higher intensity training, which Gwangju cannot do.
These commanders have initially possessed certain strength in combat experience, and it depends on whether they can perform on the battlefield.
"If you want to eat, you should eat your big bear first. My old Gu has only bones and no meat." Gu Minghai glanced at the other party in anger, "But if the ant thieves really want to come, I really want to try it. I have been idle for so many years and my whole body is about to rust. I can't die of old age in Gushi City for the rest of my life, right?"
"What Lao Gu said is that if the ant thieves really come, we can't sit still and wait for death. We have to fight together! I have been idle in Gushi for so many years, and if I can't escape this wave, I will just let it go and do something!"
The one who followed the conversation was another battalion commander, Gan Quanfu, the commander of the right battalion. He was the oldest in the entire battalion commander, in his forties, even two years older than Yuhou Cao Wanchuan, and was also the commander who had been in the Gushi army for the longest time.
"Old Gan, aren't you afraid that the ant thieves will chew on your old bones?" Xiong Guiba smiled.
"I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid, can I hide if I'm afraid? Lord Yu Hou has been talking about Gushi since he came here that something big happened. Didn't Brother Jiang come here to prove this blocking matter? Tell you, before my father died, I told me not to deal with ant thieves. Those guys are not humans. When they are desperate, they will throw them into a big mortar and pound them into meat paste for food!" Gan Quanfu showed a look of memories on his face, "I can still remember the appearance of my father recalling this before he died."
"Old Gan, not that your father has eaten human flesh paste, right?" Gu Minghai said curiously.
"I don't know." Gan Quanfu, who had a vicissitudes of life, said in confusion, "This may be the secret of my father's life. I have never asked, nor have he ever said that he was only a few years old at that time."
"Commander Jiang, you came out of the ants thieves. Is the situation like Lao Gan said?" Xiong Gui asked with his head tilted.
