Daming: From the end of Hongwu

Chapter 12 - 012 - Act 1

Chapter 12 012 - Let's Play It
In the evening, the autumn wind blows again, and it always happens again and again, regardless of whether people who seek fame and fortune in the world can bear it or not.

Zhen Wu covered his face and rushed into his residence, blowing out a few mouthfuls of sand.

"Grandma, you poured me a mouthful of sand as soon as I got to the sand mound. Could it be that God is worried that I won't have enough to eat at night?" Zhen Wu complained, patting the sand on his body.

He lived in the residence of the Chief Banner Officer, with six people in one room.

One hundred households has two general banners under its jurisdiction, and among the six general banners, the four older members are subordinates of other hundred households, while the remaining one who belongs to Tan Yuan's banner like Zhen Wu is also a young man named Zhang Wu.

This person is not a famous person in history, but he is not a small shrimp either.

In the future, he will follow Zhu Di to settle the disaster, make great military exploits, and be granted the title of Marquis of Yang. However, he will die of illness in the first year of Yongle, and finally be granted the title of Duke Lu.

When Zhen Wu saw Zhang Wu for the first time, he was also a little surprised. He didn't expect him to be the first calf in history, and now he is just like him, just a general banner position.

But then he was relieved, the world was uncertain, and everyone was a dark horse.

Being both young and belonging to Tan Yuan, Zhen Wu and Zhang Wu naturally became acquainted within two days. At this time, Zhang Wu laughed loudly when he heard Zhen Wu's complaints.

Zhen Wu walked over in three or two steps, and said: "You are so gloating, could it be that you also ate sand just now?"

"How can I be as unlucky as you." Zhang Wu raised his eyebrows proudly.

However, just as he spoke, Zhen Wu pinched a small clod of soil from his hair and handed it to his eyes.

Zhang Wu was stunned for a moment, lost his composure for a moment, sighed, shrugged his shoulders: "Oh, God probably thinks I don't have enough to eat."

"Huh?" Zhen Wu was also taken aback for a moment, and then he held back a smile and said, "This little clod is on my body, it's just on your head to put on a show, I didn't expect you to confess it?"

Zhang Wu immediately understood that Zhen Wu had teased him.

"Zhen Dawu!"

Zhen Wu suppressed a smile: "Don't be annoyed, don't be annoyed, it's just a joke."

"How can there be such a treacherous person like you in the world." Zhang Wu said angrily.

Zhen Wu couldn't hold back, and finally burst out laughing, but seeing Zhang Wu's face getting darker and darker, he quickly endured it, then turned his face, and said seriously: "Stop making trouble, stop making trouble, I have something to do with you discuss."

"That messed with you." Zhang Wu crossed his arms, a little arrogant, but his expression became serious, and he listened carefully to Zhen Wu's next words.

"I remember that tomorrow, the sergeant's bedding will be distributed. I want to discuss it with you. Let's withhold half of it, and then our two general flags will have a show."

"Acting? Why?" Zhang Wu was at a loss.

However, following Zhen Wu's explanation, Zhang Wu's eyes became brighter and brighter.

After Zhen Wu explained everything clearly, he asked: "How is it? This is also good for you. It can increase the cohesion of your sergeants. In the future, our two general banners can also form effective competition and encourage each other."

Zhang Wu never thought that leading soldiers could lead like this, but his face became more and more excited: "Sure enough, only a treacherous person like you can come up with such a method."

"Why are you talking about treachery again, the way of leading troops is upright, you can say whether you should or not."

Zhang Wu chuckled: "Although it's treacherous, I really like it."

……

The next day, normal drills in the camp.

The frowning Xue Lu gave Zhen Wu winks from time to time, he hesitated to speak, but he couldn't get any response from Zhen Wu. He really had no choice. If he hadn't suppressed him, Li Erniu and Cao Yang would have fought last night .

He was so worried that he didn't even pay attention to the training, but Zhen Wu didn't seem to know the seriousness of the matter at all, and devoted himself to his training, exactly the same as usual.

until the end of the exercise.

Zhen Wu, who was standing in front of the phalanx, changed his usual style.

Zhen Wu's face was ashen, and he clenched his fists tightly, as if he had suffered a great insult. He didn't say to disband, but asked in a deep voice.

"Does everyone know about the distribution of bedding today?"

Many people knew it and nodded, but they didn't know what Zhen Wu meant.

However, they didn't wait for them to think about it.

The next moment, Zhen Wu shouted angrily: "But there was an accident, the original quantity was not enough, and Mr. Tan, our hundred households, only received fifty sets."

Fifty sets?
There was an uproar among the sergeants.

There are two general banners under the jurisdiction of one hundred households, and each general banner has more than [-] people. There are only [-] sets. Which general banner is it for?

Everyone felt a little uneasy. The temperature had dropped in the past two days. When it was cold, no one could not care about this.

Zhen Wu continued.

"At noon, when I went to get the quilts, I found that Zhang Wu had taken all the [-] sets of quilts, and there was no one left. It was really deceptive. Do you think our general banner does not exist? Does our general banner have no one? Or do you think Even if our general banner knew, no one would dare to ask for an explanation?"

Zhen Wu's tone became more and more serious, and anyone who heard it knew that there was endless anger in it.

"Hmph! I, Zhen Wu, are the first to count on this matter, but I have to ask you, among the fifty indomitable men present, can you suffer this kind of humiliation? Can this matter be left alone?"

All the people present were young men, and after hearing this, they said in unison: "No!"

Even Xue Lu felt the same way, as if he had personally experienced this insult.

"General Banner, this matter can't be settled like this. We have our share of the fifty sets. Why should they get all of them and let our brothers suffer from the cold? We don't accept it."

"Yes, we are not convinced."

"Whoever says no, don't accept it, why, we are no worse than them."

……

One by one shouted in a hurry.

Seeing this, Zhen Wu felt that the heat was enough, suppressed everyone's voices, and then waved his hand.

"Go, everyone, come and ask me for an explanation."

Immediately, Zhen Wu took the lead, and the rest of the people followed behind with angry faces, heading straight towards Zhang Wu's phalanx.

far.

Seeing that Zhang Wu was lecturing, Zhen Wu shouted angrily, "Zhang Wu! If you don't give me an explanation for today's matter, I will never end with you."

Zhang Wu waited for Zhen Wu and the others to approach, and cast a disdainful glance at everyone.

"An explanation? Zhen Zongqi brought many people over, and asked me for an explanation."

what.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Wu is still an acting school.

Zhen Wu quickly put away his expression. It would be embarrassing for his acting skills to be compared, so he immediately pretended not to be able to suppress his anger, and gritted his teeth: "Bedding, fifty sets of bedding."

"Oh, this matter." Zhang Wu picked out his ears, and then explained to his subordinates: "Today, the bedding was distributed, but the quantity was insufficient. Mr. Tan only received fifty sets. They are better than them in every aspect, it doesn’t make sense for some of us to suffer from cold, so we all took back our general flag.”

Zhang Wu paused for a moment, then asked his subordinates: "So, tell me, shall we distribute these fifty sets of quilts to Zhen Zongqi and the others?"

His subordinates were taken aback, and all looked at each other.

Only fifty sets?
Minute?
How to divide?
After the division is gone, who will cover and who will not?
Immediately, these people felt that their general flag was doing well, and they started shouting one by one.

"Let them dream, and divide the eggs."

"That's right, go back where you came from."

"If you enter our general banner, it belongs to our general banner. Do you still want to divide it?"

……

Even if there are one or two sensible sergeants who don't want to expand their influence and cause fierce fighting between the two sides, they don't know what to say when they see this tense posture, especially when they look at the two general flags.

The two general flags are the ones leading the charge, so what else do they say?

Immediately began to shout.

"Go away, look at your useless looks, do you deserve a quilt?"
