Qian Song

Chapter 13 This Is My Kindness, Li Cun

...

tired!
pain!
The recruits of the Huben Army never thought that just standing at attention would make them so tired and their feet so painful!
Su Dong, a recruit, couldn't help but move his fingers and tugged at his sweat-wet pants.

"Snapped!"

The rattan whip in Zhang Goudan's hand hit Su Dong's back immediately.

Although his back was scorching hot, Su Dong didn't dare to move even a second - he immediately stood with his hands on his thighs as taught by the general, with his chest raised, his head retracted, and his stomach retracted.

When Li Goudan visited other places, Su Dong moved his eyes to look at the three people lying on the ground not far away.

Those three just didn't want to practice and wanted to break away from the Huben Army.

The general said that the opportunity had been given to them, but they didn't cherish it. Now they can't easily leave the Huben Army, otherwise, what is the military might of the Huben Army?
The general also said that if it was on the battlefield, he would have the heads of the three deserters beheaded without hesitation.

The general also said that if we are not on the battlefield now, we should give the three deserters a way to leave the Huben army alive. Whoever wants to leave can take his family and leave the Huben army as long as he can withstand a hundred army sticks.

As a result, among the three deserters who wanted to leave the Huben army, the strongest one only managed to hold back the [-]th army stick, and shouted that he would never be a deserter again.

Some people say that the general didn't want to let the living leave the Huben army. Who can resist a hundred army sticks and survive?
So they don't want to leave Huben Army alive.

The general then ordered that the three deserters lie down in front of the recruits for military training for one day, and then clean the hut and bathroom for seven days.

It's nothing to do some work, but it's too embarrassing to lie there and let the big girl and the little daughter-in-law poke her back. I'm afraid I won't even be able to find a daughter-in-law in the future.

So you can't be a deserter even if you die.

Su Dong looked at the group of corporals and chiefs in front of him again. They were being tossed upside down by a bamboo whistle from the general's mouth.

The general is constantly disbanding the group of corporal leaders and special leaders, and then blows the whistle to assemble.

But it seems that such a simple thing, these corporal chiefs and even chiefs can't do it well.

——After disbanding every time, these corporal and chief officers would forget where they should stand, and huddle together in a mess. A crooked horizontal line, let alone aligning to the right, these corporal leaders and chiefs have no sense of left and right at all. When they shouted to align to the right, a group of people's heads turned around in disarray, in disarray.

Su Dong wanted to laugh, but he had to hold back, because as long as he moved, he would definitely be whipped by the twenty best recruits who stood at attention.

Yes.

Zhang Goudan was able to enforce the law on behalf of the general, not because the general favored him, but because he was one of the twenty best recruits who stood at attention.

It's strange to say, I don't know if the general's vision is too good, Zhao Han'er, Kong Lengzi, Sun Sandai, Er Ganzi, Zhang Goudan, the "Five Idiots for the Queen", all entered the second quarter who stood at attention best. A rank of ten recruits.

Su Dong saw it, Zhao Han'er and the others really stood up well, when the general gave an order, they just stuck in place like a log and did not move.

This also made Su Dong a little reconciled, Zhao Han'er and his five golfers with obviously problematic heads can stand upright, why can't I?
Su Dong tried his best to hold his chest up and his stomach in, clasping his hands firmly on his thighs.

In the front, Li Cun continued to train those corporal leaders and special leaders.

"dispersion!"

"gather!"

This time, Niu Meng made a mistake - he couldn't find his place.

Li Cun kicked Niu Meng in the stomach without hesitation.

Niu Meng was immediately kicked by Li Cun and sat on the ground.

Niu Meng's ferocity surged up immediately, and he wanted to get angry immediately!

But when Niu Meng saw Li Cun's ancient and calm eyes, Niu Meng's anger immediately dissipated, and then he found his place and stood up.

Li Cun didn't take a second look at Niu Meng, and regarded Niu Meng as a recruit exactly like the other recruits: "The Battle of Kunyang was the most critical battle between Liu Xiu and Wang Mang. In this battle, the two sides suffered 36 casualties!"

Li Cun came to a corps leader who couldn't find You, slapped him, and helped him find You directly: "The Battle of Pengcheng was a decisive battle between Liu Bang and Xiang Yu, with more than [-] casualties on both sides!"

Li Cun kicked an obviously protruding head back: "In the Battle of Hebei, the Tang army had more than 60 troops, while An Qingxu's army was 20, plus Shi Siming's reinforcements of 28, a total of 40. , the casualties of the Tang Dynasty were as high as 50, and the casualties of the rebels were also more than [-], and the total casualties of the two sides were [-]!"

Li Cun came to Sun He, looked at Sun He who clearly knew what he was talking about, and continued: "In the Battle of Feishui, Fu Jian relied on an army of 97 and was defiant. The result was a disastrous defeat. reached 62, while the Jin Dynasty only suffered [-] casualties!"

Li Cun came to Zhang Shi again, looked at Zhang Shi and said: "In the Battle of Changping, the number of Qin's participants reached 60, and the number of Zhao's participants in the battle was more than 46. The two sides fought for more than 40 days. During this process, 45 people died in Zhao State, 40 were killed by Bai Qi alone, and more than 30 soldiers were killed or injured in Qin State!"

Li Cun stretched his arms around Zhang Shi's neck, and said in a cold voice: "Do you know what these numbers are? The entire population of Qingxi is not enough for 30, that is to say, the entire population of Qingxi It's not enough to kill or wound in a battle of Kunyang!"

After turning Zhang Shi's head to the right, Li Cun said loudly: "As a general, my responsibility is not to make you like me, but to teach you how to kill the enemy. You wait to go home alive and enjoy the credit and glory you deserve, this is the kindness of me, Li Cun!"

"Someone wants to ask me why the soldiers just need to stand there, but we have to be trained and tortured by you Li Cun?"

"Now I will answer you wait!"

"First of all, they don't just need to stand there, they are also training. This is the training that you have to make up later!"

"Secondly, they will soon have to experience what you and others have experienced now, but at that time, it was not me, Li Cun, who trained them, but you and others!"

"Finally, I want to tell you that if you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight. If you want to be an officer of our Huben Army, you must do better and more than the soldiers. Otherwise, why do you dictate to them?"

Li Cun stood still, looked at the group of corporals and chiefs, and said: "Who among you is not willing to bear this weight, go stand among the soldiers and follow them to train step by step. I will not stop you." wait!"

Li Cun looked at the ordinary soldiers again: "And among you, whoever wants to stand out, want to fight for fame and wealth, honor ancestors, and seal his wife and son, he can call "General, I want to practice more", and then he can join them." Accept additional training, as long as you train better than them, you can replace them as the first batch of officers of our Huben Army!"

As soon as Li Cun's words fell, the second pole who was supervising the recruits standing at attention said loudly: "General, I want to practice more!"

Li Cun: "Come here and stand to the far left!"

Er pole: "No!"

Li Cun: "Who else?"

Kong Lengzi, Sun Sandai, and Zhang Goudan scrambled to be the first to shout: Tell the general, I want to practice more! "

In addition, Zhao Han'er, who had been elected as the corps leader before.

The "Queen Five Idiots" have all been mixed into the officer training class.

In addition to the two poles and the others who responded positively no matter what Li Cunrang did, there were more than [-] recruits who wanted to give it a go.

This includes Su Dong.

Li Cun took a deep look at those soldiers who missed such a good promotion opportunity, and then continued to train his own teaching...
