Chapter 39 Resurrection
July 24, 2018, the fifth year of the State of Lu Jianguo.
Just as the time came, the arsenal officials in charge of military supplies reserves began to assign tasks to the minor officials, while the minor officials who received the task hurried to instruct the servants to move out the military supplies that needed to be transported to Chen Wenying one by one, and after the quantity was verified, the transportation would begin.
At this time, Qi Xiufeng, a newly-entered military officer in Chen Wenying, had already begun to count the first batch of materials that had arrived. Gu Shouli, who had just been appointed as the chief clerk of the camp, was responsible for reviewing after his inventory was completed. If there were no mistakes, Chen Wen would sign and draw them into the warehouse.
However, not all the warehouses were moved into the warehouses in the military camps at this time. Some of the materials that were not stored were carried to the gate of the barracks, while the other things had to be moved to the Strike Station in the West School.
In the barracks, soldiers who were dragged to bathe and repair their hair yesterday began to line up to collect the underwear, belts, military uniforms, military shoes and leggings from Chen Wen, two sets of each person for change. The old bedding and clothes they used before were uniformly used were taken to disinfect with lime water.
The barracks in the Ming Dynasty were all-bedrooms. If a soldier carries bacteria, it is likely that all the robes of the same barracks would be infected. Although there were no patients among the soldiers in the past two days after entering the camp, Chen Wen felt that the establishment of a prevention system was much better than the headache of the headache and foot pain.
After sending thanks to their commander, the soldiers rushed back to the barracks and changed one of the clothes and put the other ones in a bag and carried them with them. Because they knew that these clothes would be used during the military ceremony at noon today.
After changing into brand new military uniforms, the whole person's mental outlook immediately became different. The soldiers began to compete according to their usual social circles, and the atmosphere became more and more relaxed.
At this time, the three thousand generals led six poliest soldiers to chase people out of the barracks. Seeing this, the soldiers who were mostly playing and were already having sex quickly ran out, while the soldiers who had just received their clothes and had not been dressed all of them quickly with the help of their familiarity.
Not to mention the three thousand generals, they were serious officers in the court. Even the policing soldiers were directly led by the general. In the eyes of ordinary soldiers, Chen Wen's ten policing soldiers were actually his personal soldiers and servants. According to common sense, personal soldiers and servants had much greater chance of promotion than ordinary soldiers, so they were future officers.
In the army, class is everything. In ancient times, there were even examples of father and son comparing the relationship between officers and soldiers. Therefore, with such a combination of officers and quasi-army officers, the soldiers dared not say anything. Naturally, they followed the orders and hurried out and followed them to the west schoolyard.
On the pointing platform of the West School Field, a shelf stands at the original position where the main seat was placed, and a portrait is hung on the shelf. In front of the portrait is an altar, with three animals and an incense burner and a tripod on it.
In addition to all this, there was only a Taishi chair at the beginning. The civil servant sitting on the chair who was wearing the peacock tunic was not angry and powerful, but was Wang Yi, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of War and the left deputy commander of the Ministry of War. Behind Wang Yi, two personal soldiers of the Ministry of Justice stood on the side, one holding the Shangfang sword in his hands, while the other holding the tray of the seals in both hands. The things in their hands represent the unquestionable authority of the Ming Dynasty.
Under the military ordering stage, Chen Wen, wearing a military uniform and hanging his sword, stood in front of the supplies that had been placed in sequence, waiting for the start of the new army ceremony he designed, and in front of him was a long narrow table with a roster.
Every time, the soldiers of Chen Wen's troops came down to the side of the school ground, led by the officers. When they saw all this in front of them, they whispered. Whenever someone made a sound, they would be scolded by the officers or the tutors, and the school ground soon became quiet.
At this time, Gu Shouli, who was standing between Chen Wen and the soldiers, saw that the time had arrived, immediately took a step forward and shouted loudly: "The ceremony began!"
Upon hearing the news of the ceremony, both the officers and soldiers stood up straight and stared at their generals.
Chen Wen opened the roster on the long table and chanted loudly: "Lou Jiye!"
Hearing the summons from the commander, a man with a tall, long arms, big waist and round waist came out from the scattered soldiers standing, strode towards Chen Wen. When he walked to Chen Wen, he immediately knelt down and saluted.
Lou Jiye was a child of the Lou family in Yiwu. During Qi Jiguang's era, many children of the Lou family in Yiwu participated in the Qi family army. By the time they passed away, there were as many as six deputy generals of the General General, and there were countless officers at all levels including the following generals, guerrillas, garrisons, and Qianzong.
Unlike Wu Dengke's long-estranged relative, Lou Jiye was the direct descendant of Lou Nan, a famous anti-Japanese general who later became the deputy general of Yunnan in the Qi family army. Although he was just a concubine's son, he was regarded as the hope of reviving the family business by his grandfather since childhood.
It is said that when this son Zhou Sui Qiyang (who was called Zhou in the Ming Dynasty), he ignored the things placed on the ground, climbed out of the house step by step, grabbed the spear standing on the shelf in the courtyard and said nothing, which was surprising to people at that time. When they were in a daze, they went to learn the Analects of Confucius after reading 300,000, but he began to pick up the "Ji Xiaoxin Book".
After his hair was exhausted, Lou Jiye began his career as a soldier. At first, he served in Jinhua and participated in the suppression of the rebellion of Xudu's remaining troops. Soon, the Qing army went south and his superiors planned to surrender to the Qing Dynasty. He was moved by his superiors' kindness, but as a famous general in the anti-Japanese war, he was not ashamed of being a barbarian minion, so that night he fled the military camp with his fellow villagers.
In the following years, Lou Jiye had followed several head coaches, but in that era when the anti-Qing armed forces were in full swing, the head coaches he followed either died in battle or surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, so that he had to change his boss almost every few months. Later, others gave him a nickname called "Lu of the People", thinking that his life was too tough to kill the head coaches. Since then, no coach was willing to recruit him.
At that time, he had already started to go to the fourth place and gradually began to give up on himself. Later, he simply got married and had children in Siming Mountain, and refused to return home. In his words, he had been in the army for more than ten years, but had not achieved success and had no face to meet his ancestors.
Logically speaking, he and Wu Dengke were both from Yiwu. His ancestors and the clan brothers of Wu Dengke's ancestors once worked under Qi Jiguang's tent. The two should have a good relationship. However, there are always coincidental things in this world. After Xu Du's death, Wu Dengke followed Xu Du's subordinates to rebel in Jinhua, while Lou Jiye was subordinate to the general responsible for suppressing them. The two even fought on the battlefield. From then on, the two began to form hatred, so that when Wu Dengke came to Dalan Mountain, they met Lou Jiye again, and they still looked down on each other.
After Chen Wen announced the decision to rebuild the Qi family army, Wu Dengke thought about it and still thought that Lou Jiye was a talent, otherwise would he be able to fight against him on the battlefield without a chance to win or lose? Considering that the two of them were fellow villagers, if they were standing under the banner of rebuilding the Qi family army, there would be no grudges that could not be resolved. So Wu Dengke ran to persuade him to join Chen Wen's team. However, Lou Jiye was not very trusting at that time, so he did not agree.
However, after Wu Dengke left, the slogan of rebuilding the Qi family army always lingered in Lou Jiye's mind and could not be dissipated for a long time, so he listened to Chen Wen's talk about ancient times with the attitude of trying it out. That was on that day, when Chen Wen finished telling the story he made up and threatened to rebuild the Qi family army again, Lou Jiye's heart that longed to return home in glory became hot again. He felt that Chen Wen should be the same person as him who was eager to revitalize the family business.
As a result, after Wu Dengke swore allegiance on the threshing farm, there was a scene where a man from Yiwu took the lead in following Chen Wen to rebuild the Qi family army, and that man was Lou Jiye. I think that at that moment, if Wu Dengke had made up the rhetoric earlier, he might have been stolen by Lou Jiye.
Wu Dengke naturally agreed with Lou Jiye's franchise, while Yin Yue, who has always been deeply influenced by feudal superstition, raised questions. The reason for the question was very simple, the nickname "Lu in Man".
However, as the main general, Chen Wen didn't care about this. In addition to receiving education from materialistic atheistic ideas all year round, he felt that after he traveled through time, he did not die or kiss the wolf after hearing the "Husky" several times. Later, he was able to escape from a guerrilla general. It is estimated that ordinary people would not touch him.
After going up the mountain, Chen Wen looked for an opportunity to talk to Lou Jiye. He soon discovered the difference between Wu Dengke and Lou Jiye, two children of the Qi family. Wu Dengke was taught by the clan in his early years and knew very well about the cold weapons used by the Qi family army. He was also able to understand why these weapons appeared in the battle formation; while Lou Jiye was more focused on the use and changes of the formation, as well as Qi Jiguang's idea of building the army, which was probably related to his beginnings when he was young and began to read Qi Jiguang's military books.
In Chen Wen's opinion, this person is the most suitable candidate for the chief of staff in his current military regiment. However, Chen Wen did not intend to promote him so early, because Chen Wen knew that in addition to those men who swore allegiance to him under the leadership of Wu Dengke and Yin Yue, most of the people in the Jinhua people in the camp were recruited by Lou Jiye. He went to Siming Mountain earlier than Wu Dengke, and was more prestigious in the Jinhua people living here than Wu Dengke. After the army was established for a period of time, especially after a victory, the concept of class and charisma in the army would gradually overwhelm the friendship between fellow countrymen, and Chen Wen would naturally promote this person.
Seeing Lou Jiye kneeling respectfully in front of him, Chen Wen helped him up, then took a helmet from a polite guru beside him and put it on Lou Jiye's head; then took the waist card that proved his identity and a flag gun to hand it to his left hand; finally, Chen Wen took out a ingot of silver worth one or two taels from the box next to him and placed it on his right hand.
"Brother Lou, do your best. Qi Shaobao will never watch us heroes who join the army to drive out the Tartars cannot return home in glory."
When he got the money, Lou Jiye did not show any joy. He had been in the army for many years and was not short of money. But when Chen Wen said that, Lou Jiye's eyes flashed with tears. He immediately clenched his flag and gun, clasped his fists with his hands, and said loudly: "The humble position will never let down the general's high expectations!"
After signaling Lou Jiye to stand aside, Chen Wen shouted out his second name: "Niu Ping'an!"
Niu Ping'an, like Lou Jiye, is from Yiwu, but he came to Dalan Mountain with Wu Dengke and others, and is not familiar with Lou Jiye. This man is taciturn on weekdays, but he will do his best to do what he arranges for him. When Chen Wen told ancient times, Wu Dengke arranged for him to watch the bonfire. Even if Chen Wen's story was wonderful, he would never forget what he needed to do while listening.
Chen Wen admired such a man who knew how to be loyal to his duties very much, but he was not literate and did not understand the Yuanyang Formation and military tactics very much, which made Chen Wen not have a reason to promote him for the time being. However, this man was tall and did not disappoint his surname. According to the selection standards of Yuanyang Formation, his personality and figure were very suitable for being a long-term player. So Chen Wen arranged him under Lou Jiye's command.
After Chen Wen put on his helmet, Niu Ping'an took the waist card, long card, waist knife and one tael of silver handed to him by Chen Wen. Mu Nao, after taking the silver, immediately expressed his loyalty to Chen Wen.
Handing weapons with one hand and silver with the other hand is Chen Wen’s method to motivate soldiers in the camp to practice martial arts diligently. The idea is very simple, which is to tell soldiers to practice martial arts diligently through psychological hints, and they will not have to worry about wealth if they make military achievements. Of course, this is not enough. You should also have team spirit and strict military discipline to become a truly army.
After signaling Niu Ping'an to stand on the side of Lou Jiye, Chen Wen called out ten people one by one, and in addition to the money, these ten people got rattan waist knives, wolves, spears, palladium and pointed shoulder poles respectively.
Seeing the twelve people standing in a row, Chen Wen said to them: "From now on, you will be members of the First Killer Team of the Yuanyang Formation at the Base Camp. Those who hold flag guns are the captains, those who hold licensees are the commanders, and the two commanders respect long cards, and those who hold pointed shoulder poles are fire soldiers. The captain leads directly, and the others are all combat soldiers, divided according to their queues. Go!"
"As for the order," said the first members of the First Killer Team, leaning on their own weapons, kneeling in front of Chen Wen, and after getting up, they stood in line with the guidance of the tutors.
Next, Chen Wen organized one killer team after another according to this example, and began to organize the cavalry team and the firearm team that only one-third of the soldiers used firearms according to the roster.
He also wore a helmet, handed over weapons and money in the other hand, organized into teams, and also accepted the oath of allegiance from every soldier and their group. Chen Wen did everything tirelessly in order to build an army that could truly compete with the Qing army in more than a month.
Of course, this is not enough. In addition to the high-intensity training that is about to begin, he also needs some natural or supernatural powers as a supplement.
Under the witness of Wang Yi, the supreme commander of the Ming army in Simingshan area and the Lu Jianguo Xingchao behind him, under the attention of the soldiers who had been reorganized from the field, Chen Wen climbed onto the military platform and placed three incense sticks in front of Qi Jiguang's portrait. Then, he took a few steps back, lifted the scarlet cloak he was wearing, and fell to the ground facing the portrait, and kowtowed a few times.
After getting up, Chen Wen straightened his helmet, nodded to Wang Yi, then turned around and walked to the edge of the troop platform, facing the officers and soldiers standing in a row on the school ground and began his speech.
"You guys, today we stand on this Dalan Mountain, on this land where the young master once protected, rebuild the Qi family army that was invincible and invincible, and both Japanese pirates and northern captains would be frightened by their reputation."
"This road may not be smooth sailing. We need to work harder than ordinary people. We need to leave more sweat for training and fighting than soldiers in other armies. Even some of us, including this, will pay the price of blood and life."
"But no one can stop our steps, no one can resist our soldiers, and no one can erase our pride as a Han family!"
Speaking of this, the military commander Qi Xiufeng climbed the troop platform under the escort of two poliest soldiers. He saw him solemnly handing the flag in his hand to Wang Yi, who had already stood up and walked to Chen Wen's side. After Wang Yi took the flag, he also solemnly handed it to Chen Wen, who was already preparing to pay his respects in front of him.
After getting up, Chen Wen suddenly waved the flagpole back and forth, and the pattern on the flag also appeared in the true face at that moment - it was a colorful tiger with wings, trying to sway on the flag.
At this moment, Chen Wen continued to say to his soldiers in an excited tone: "In the three dynasties of Jiajing, Longqing and Wanli, Qi Shaobao was called Qi Laohu by Japanese pirates and northern captives. Although this general did not have the surname Qi, as long as our camp flag was still there, we were the Qi family army, and Qi Shaobao's heroic spirit would also be with me!"
On the school ground, the soldiers listened to Chen Wen's exciting speech, especially when they saw the flag and heard everything represented by the flag would be with them, each soldier wanted to make a confident cry. However, the power and majesty represented by the court represented by Wang Yi on the military placing platform, the strangeness that he had just entered the team was no longer familiar with, and the stern eyes of officers and soldiers at all levels around them, which made them have to temporarily suppress these shouts in their chests.
"From today, we will rebuild the Qi family army under the protection of Qi Shaobao. Then we will defeat the enemy, recover lost territory, and establish a larger military formation, so that the Tatars will tremble when they hear our name."
"One day, we will fight the Tartars in the two capitals of the north and south, one day, we will recover all the lost lands, and one day, we will use the Tartars' heads to comfort the spirits of the Han brothers and sisters who have died in vain in the hands of the Tartars over the years."
The breeze in the mountains raised the flag, and the tiger on the flag shone out its bloody fangs. On the military striking platform, Chen Wen's set of mountain literary armor that he wiped was shining brightly under the sunlight.
At that moment, in the eyes of the soldiers in Chen Wenying, their general seemed like a god in the noon sun, in front of Qi Jiguang's portrait, and under the banner they would fight for in the future.
"Wan Sheng!"
"Wan Sheng!"
"Wan Sheng!"
“…”
On July 24, 2018, the fourth year of Yongli, Zhejiang Chengxuan announced that the Siming Mountain hinterland at the border of the three prefectures of Shaoxing, Ningbo and Taizhou. All the soldiers of a small army with only more than 300 people were shouting for their desire to win in the future battle, and their voices shook the sky.
