Although Tao Ying's conditions for recruiting soldiers were harsh, fortunately, there was a lot of room for choice. So after spending most of the day, Tao Ying finally picked up the number of eight hundred recruits. At this time, Tao Ying suddenly remembered that he was training soldiers.

Many recruits will definitely be eliminated in the process, so Tao Ying temporarily decided to pick an additional hundred recruits as a reserve. Cao Bao did not object and agreed to Tao Ying's request with a smile - Tao Qian, the boss of Xuzhou, is Tao Ying's anyway.

Dear dad, the government offices in Xuzhou are run by the Tao family. Tao Ying decided to recruit an extra hundred soldiers at the last minute. There will definitely be no problems with Tao Qian.

As for the equipment and military rations that come with recruiting more new soldiers, the Second Young Master Tao and General Cao don't have to worry about them. Those are issues that Tao Qian assigned to Tao Ying's logistics director Cao Hong to worry about. The Second Young Master Tao and

No matter how General Cao falls, he will definitely not fall to Cao Hong's position.

So, after many twists and turns, our Second Young Master Tao's recruit team finally gathered the number of nine hundred, and in the evening of the same day, a military formation ceremony was held on the Xuzhou East Gate Primary School Ground-actually, it was a standing ceremony.

Form a team, lead the army and wear the military flag, listen to Tao Ying's training for a few words, and then gather together to have a meal of grass and grass, then you can end the ceremony and go to bed.

Considering that the culture of soldiers in this era was generally not high, Tao Ying did not deliver a long and boring speech that he had experienced in the system. Standing on the high platform in front of a team of 900 recruits, Tao Ying shouted in an extremely straightforward manner: "

Brothers, today is a big day for the establishment of our team. I won’t say any more nonsense. I just want you to remember one thing! Remember two questions!”

"Brothers, you all heard it clearly. From today on, you are the soldiers of the Han Dynasty. No matter it is windy or rainy, thunder, snow or hail, you sit with your arms folded. Your three stones, three buckets and three liters of corn are indispensable every month.

Han Xiaoshi, weighing about thirty kilograms)! Your summer singles and winter furs are indispensable every year!"

"Brothers, you all deserve these, but you must remember that these grains, rice, cloth and furs are all collected by the Han government from the Han people. Every piece of clothing, shoe, meal and fur you have is worth it.

It’s all the blood and sweat of the Han people! This is what I want you to remember!”

"Brothers, now comes the first question, why do the common people of the Han Dynasty support you? Why do they have to work hard in the wind and rain every day and use their blood and sweat to support you?"

"Why? Isn't it expected that you will go into battle and kill the enemy, protect your home and country, and protect their lives and work in peace and contentment?!"

"Brothers, now comes the second question! The Han people have worked so hard to support you, but you don't kill the enemy on the battlefield and don't protect the Han people's peaceful land. What's the use of the Han people supporting you?"

"Brothers, remember this thing, these two questions, remember your mission, remember who you are fighting for and why you are fighting, and you will always be invincible and never be defeated by the enemy!

"

"Brothers, please join me in shouting, protect our home and country! Protect our country and our people!"

"Protect the home and the country! Protect the country and the people!" The honest soldiers specially selected by Tao Ying were very obedient. Regardless of whether they understood the meaning of Tao Ying's words, they all raised their weapons and flags and followed Tao Ying's rhythm.

Shouting, "Protect the home and the country! Protect the environment and the people! Protect the home and the country! Protect the environment and the people! Protect the home and the country! Protect the environment and the people -!"

With this speech, Tao Ying finally changed his bad impression in the minds of Tao Ji and Lin Qing. Tao Ji stood aside and followed Tao Ying, raising his sword and shouting to protect the family and the country, while secretly thinking: "Second brother said

It makes sense, and it is natural for soldiers to eat food, but why do people need to support soldiers? Few people have seriously thought about it before."

"It sounds nice, but I don't know if I know how to be a soldier." Lin Qing, who was standing in the ranks of Tao Ying's soldiers, also whispered quietly - although Lin Qing repeatedly refused to serve as a soldier for Tao Ying, when he arrived at the military camp,

Seeing that a dozen soldiers had to squeeze into a thatched cottage, the pale-faced Lin Qing finally accepted Tao Ying's kindness and moved into Tao Ying's relatively spacious room, and helplessly became Tao Ying's personal soldier.

.

"Okay, dismissal, brothers are all going to have dinner. Today our team is newly formed. There is wine and meat. Brothers can eat with all their heart. After eating, go back to the room to rest! Tomorrow at 9 o'clock, you will start a new one.

What a wonderful life!" Tao Ying shouted with a wicked smile on his face.

"Oh!" The poor nine hundred recruits had no idea that hell had gradually opened its door to them. They cheered heartily, thanked Tao Ying again and again, and then rushed to the kitchen where the strong aroma of wine and meat was exuding.

"Boys, just wait." Looking at the cheering and dispersing crowd of recruits, Tao Ying's smile got even bigger. He turned around and was about to take Tao Ji and Lin Qing off the stage to eat, when he suddenly saw someone walking down the stage.

One person was Tao Ying's cheap brother, Tao Shang, who was so honest that he couldn't beat a fart with three hammers. Tao Ying did not dare to neglect, and hurried forward to greet Tao Shang, bowed to the ground and said respectfully: "Brother, little brother

I didn’t know that my brother was coming, but I missed him from afar, so I hope you can forgive me."

"Brother Xian, please get up quickly." Tao Shang helped Tao Ying and said with a smile: "I heard that brother Xian has finally recruited all the soldiers and that my father's condition has improved greatly in the past few days. Brother Yu took the time to come over and take a look.

Congratulations to my virtuous brother."

"Thank you, brother." Tao Ying thanked him hurriedly.

"Brother, why are you being so polite?" Tao Shang giggled and added, "I just heard your wise brother's words and felt that what he said was so reasonable. What is the purpose of the people supporting the soldiers? It is to allow the soldiers to protect their homes.

The country, protect the territory and the people! As long as the soldiers in my dear brother's team keep this in mind, I believe they can be invincible in every attack and invincible in every battle just like my dear brother said!"

"Brother, thank you." Tao Ying said modestly: "These are easy to say, but difficult to do. I don't know how long it will take for the soldiers to really remember this."

The pottery merchant nodded and once again agreed with his brother's opinion. Then the pottery merchant turned to Tao Ji and asked his cousin to assist his second brother well and help Tao Ying lead the army. Tao Ji also honestly agreed, but the honest Tao Shang suddenly

As soon as his thoughts changed, he turned to Tao Ying and said with a smile: "Brother Xian, your army is under your direct command and control. It is not under the control of General Cao Bao's army. They are both called the Han Xuzhou Army. There is inevitably some confusion. Brother Yu secretly thought that Brother Xian

This army should be named separately so that it can be distinguished."

"Thank you for the advice, brother. I have the same idea, but I haven't thought of a good name yet." Tao responded.

"Second brother, how about calling our army Tiger and Wolf Cavalry?" Tao Ji suggested impatiently: "The most elite cavalry in Cao Cao's old thief's army is called Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, so let's call it Tiger and Wolf!"

"Not good." To Tao Ji's surprise, the first person to object was his most honest cousin Tao Shang. Tao Shang shook his head and said: "Tigers, wolves, tigers and leopards are all beasts. My second brother's team is the teacher of benevolence and righteousness. How can I

Can it be named after an animal?"

"Tiger and wolf are as powerful as tigers and as swift as wolves, not animals." Tao Ji explained.

"It's still not good. Teachers of benevolence and righteousness cannot be named after animals." The big nerd Tao Shang still shook his head and objected.

"What does the name of the Army of Benevolence and Righteousness have to do with it?" Tao Ji said dissatisfied: "According to my brother's wishes, can't our army only be called the Army of Benevolent and Righteous Gentlemen?"

"The Army of Benevolent and Righteous Gentlemen?" Tao Shang's eyes lit up, and he turned to Tao Ying and said, "Brother Xian, how about naming your army the Army of Gentlemen? Brother Xian is a man of benevolence and filial piety, frank and honest, honoring promises, brave and fearless.

The military name of a gentleman is consistent with the character of a wise brother, and it is more appropriate."

"Junzijun?" Tao Ji screamed like a pig, "Brother, you are really good at naming, Junzijun? You can't even come up with such an unpleasant name!"

"Jun Zijun?" Tao Ying was a little tempted - because this name really suited Tao Ying's taste. But Tao Ying had another layer of consideration and hesitated: "It's just too difficult to pronounce, Jun Zijun, not loud and smooth enough."

"You two wise brothers are wrong." Tao Shang shook his head and said in shock: "Have you two wise brothers forgotten that history books record that more than five hundred years ago, there was an army of gentlemen, and it was the strongest army at that time?

.”

"There was an army of gentlemen more than five hundred years ago?" Tao Ying's eyes widened. This was the first time he heard about this.

"That's right." The pottery merchant nodded, showing off his book bag proudly and said: "More than five hundred years ago, the most elite men under King Goujian of Yue were named after gentlemen. The Wu Yuan chapter of the book "Guoyu" contains: "The king of Yue named him after him.

Six thousand private soldiers and gentlemen constituted the central army. Sima Zichang commented: Private soldiers and gentlemen are those who are close to the king and are aspiring to do something. Wu Xianliang is the so-called scholar of Qi. Gou Jian suffered from hardships and worked hard to rule, and finally avenged Wu's humiliation and destroyed Wu. The main force of his soldiers was the army of gentlemen.

!”

"Okay!" Tao Ying was overjoyed, clapped his thigh and shouted: "Thank you for the name, brother. This name is very suitable for my little brother. From now on, my team will be called the Junzi Army!"

"In that case, it's not bad to call them the Junzi Army." Tao Ji and Tao Ying agreed for the rare time. He pinched his bare chin and said: "King Gou Jian of Yue suffered hardships by lying on his back and avenged his previous humiliation. Our Xuzhou army also calls it the Junzi Army."

Naming him means not forgetting his past shame and vowing to avenge his past."

"That's it." Tao Yingxi smiled brightly and said to Tao Ji: "Third brother, order people to make three large Qingya flags overnight, write the two characters 'junzi' on a handsome flag, and make two secondary flags.

"

"What do you write on the secondary flag?" Tao Ji suggested: "My little brother suggests, how about writing two lines: "Sleep on the fuel and taste the courage" and "Work hard to achieve great results"?

"No!" Tao Ying shook his head and said with a smile: "On one side of the flag are written the five characters of 'Benevolence, Righteousness, Courtesy, Wisdom and Trust', and on the other side are the five characters of 'Wenliang, Gongtong, thrift and yielding'."

"Benevolence, justice, propriety, wisdom and trust? Gentleness, respect, thrift and concession?" Tao Ji almost screamed like a pig again and exclaimed: "Second brother, are you sure you want to fly these two flags? Are you sure you want our army to fly these two flags?"

"Wonderful!" The pottery merchant applauded and said sincerely: "My brother is indeed a humble gentleman. He is benevolent, righteous, courteous, wise and trustworthy, gentle, courteous and thrifty. These are the words of a saint and our principles for life!"

"That's right!" Tao Ying laughed loudly and said: "I want the Junzi Army to be like me, benevolent, loyal, courteous, wise, and honest! Gentle, kind, respectful, frugal, and tolerant! Hold high the banner of benevolence and righteousness, and sweep away all invincible opponents in the world.

!”

Tao Shang applauded desperately, feeling that his second brother's words were too appealing to his taste, and congratulated him sincerely: "My dear brother, I take benevolence and righteousness as my banner, and my kindness as my banner. I believe that my dear brother and his army of gentlemen will all have a bright future!"

"

"The future is bleak, right?" Tao Ji and Lin Qing, who was eavesdropping, lamented in their hearts, "If these two flags are raised, I believe that the Gentleman Army will soon become the laughing stock of the princes in the world."

"I'd better quickly find a way to return to General Cao Bao. With my second brother, my future is completely bleak!" Tao Ji cried and thought to himself, "Be benevolent, righteous, propriety, wise and trustworthy? Be gentle, courteous and thrifty? Let the army that goes into battle to kill the enemy fight like this.

Flag, it’s a shame that my two nerdy brothers can think of it!”

"Forget it, let's go, don't waste time on this nerd." Lin Qing also sighed in his heart: "Benevolence, justice, propriety, wisdom and trust? Gentleness, respect, thrift and humiliation? When such a battle flag is put on the battlefield, it will definitely not scare the enemy.

It is quite possible to kill ten or eight enemies with laughter."

So, after listening to the advice of our honest elder brother Tao Shang, the first army formed by our deputy director Tao finally had an extremely loud and elegant name - the Gentleman Army!

There are also military souls and slogans - benevolence, loyalty, etiquette, wisdom, and integrity! Gentleness, kindness, respect, frugality, and tolerance! In short, it is called: benevolence, justice, etiquette, wisdom, trust, gentleness, respect, thrift, and concession!

Of course, no one knows whether the name of Deputy Director Tao's team is wrong or whether the slogan is wrong. But Deputy Director Tao firmly believes that his military name and slogan are both correct! Whether you believe it or not

, anyway, Deputy Director Tao believed it himself.
