Father-in-law Zhu Di, I am so happy to marry the disfigured princess

Chapter 133 The Cooking Class vs the Strongest Hundred Household Team!

Three days passed in a blink of an eye.

In the Yan Army barracks, Zhu Di was inspecting the soldiers.

After inspecting the army meeting, go back to the barracks to rest, and discuss matters with a group of generals, Zhang Yu, Zhang Wu, Zhu Neng and others.

Since the 24th year of Hongwu, Zhu Di followed General Fu Youde to go deep into Mobei, and persuaded Naier not to spend that battle. Apart from learning countless war skills from Fu Youde, it hurt Bei Yuan's vitality.

After this war, the Beiping frontier fortress was much more peaceful.

Bei Yuan lost his vitality, so he would not often cross the Great Wall thinking of coming to the Central Plains to plunder.

However, Zhu Di, a grassland ethnic group in the north, knew very well that without sufficient supply lines, it was almost impossible to exterminate the nomads.

It can always grow like weeds, so the military affairs of the frontier cannot be slack, and year-round military training is also necessary.

At this time, a soldier came and sent a letter to Zhu Di.

Zhu Di unfolded it and took a look. He was taken aback for a moment, and then thought about it carefully.

This letter, of course, was sent by Zhu Gaosui. It recorded the formation of mandarin ducks, and it said that Li Xiao and others defeated the bandits without any casualties.

"Last time, I just talked casually with the third child. I didn't expect the third child to be so reliable!"

Zhu Di was quite surprised by this point, and was very glad that he called the third child, otherwise he would not have gotten so many interesting news.

"Hey, in the border of Cangzhou, there is such a thing. There are bandits blocking the shipment of grain to Beiping! Fortunately, this matter was encountered by Li Xiao, and he solved it easily. Is this mandarin duck array used?"

Zhu Di wasn't too surprised. He had seen Li Xiao's ability to form troops on the football field last time, but he didn't expect that he could actually use it on the battlefield!
"Li Xiao, Li Xiao, you have given me too many surprises."

Looking at the letter, Zhu Di couldn't help smiling.

"Your Highness, why are you so happy?"

Seeing that King Yan was suddenly happy, Zhang Yu asked curiously.

"Haha, I just studied a new formation, and I just happened to be in the army today, so I might as well practice it and try the effect of the formation!"

Zhu Di is a person who puts more emphasis on practice, and immediately plans to try this mandarin duck formation.

He looked at everyone and asked, "Who dares to compare with this king?"

Upon hearing this, everyone waved their hands and said, "Where is the enemy better than His Royal Highness King Yan?"

"No one to fight?" Zhu Di smiled, his eyes kept scanning these generals, "Then the king will have to choose by himself."

Finally, his gaze rested on Zhang Wu.

Pointing to Zhang Wu: "It's you!"

Hearing this, Zhang Wu's face turned black, he was really unlucky, how could he compare to King Yan.

Zhu Di slightly raised his voice: "Zhang Wu, are you not confident?"

Zhang Wu was stunned for a moment, then roared: "Yes!"

Provoking other people to laugh, this is obviously a guilty conscience.

Zhu Di laughed and said, "Since you are so confident, let's add some cheer."

After thinking about it, in order to prevent Zhang Wu from being passive and idle, he pointed to Zhang Wu: "How about betting on your salary for three months?"

"This is absolutely impossible."

Zhang Wu was immediately discouraged.

The competition is the competition, don't joke about the salary.

If you lose the three-month salary, will you drink northwest wind in the days to come?
Zhu Neng joked: "Zhang Wu, are you a man? It's okay. If you lose, come here for a drink."

Zhang Yu also teased: "Don't be afraid, losing to King Yan is not ashamed, it's only shameful if you lose your guts."

Zhang Wu glanced at these two people, watching the excitement is not a big deal, you are not the one who picks on the relationship, right?

Zhang Wu said with a flattering smile: "Well, Your Highness, how about gambling a month's salary?"

"What? Are you still asking the king for advice and bargaining?"

Zhu Di smiled secretly in his heart, waved his big hand and said: "Then the salary for half a year, that's it!"

"." Now, Zhang Wu really looked bitter.

"However, this king can't bully you, let you have some."

Zhu Di just wanted to try the formation method, not really to blackmail Zhang Wu's money, and added: "In this way, you can pick the reference personnel. The king's people are also yours to pick, and the king doesn't personally How about going into battle?"

This statement came out.

Everyone was taken aback for a moment.

Isn't this sending money to Zhang Wu?
His Royal Highness Yan Wang did not play, but Zhang Wu could play, which was a big difference.

Moreover, let Zhang Wu choose people by himself?

Can you still choose someone from His Highness King Yan?
Isn't this a must lose?

Soldiers are also divided into good and bad, there are strong and brave soldiers.

There are also thin, slightly timid soldiers.

Zhang Wu can choose some of the most elite soldiers for himself and the weak ones for His Royal Highness King Yan.

In addition, Zhang Wu himself played to lead the team, even His Royal Highness King Yan couldn't win.

What kind of formation can make up such a big gap?

Hearing this, Zhang Wu was stunned, and it took him a long time to recover, and asked, "Your Highness, are you serious?"

Zhu Di said unhappily: "Your boy, is this the first day you know me? This king keeps his promises. When did you say such a big thing?"

"Ha ha ha ha."

Zhang Wu couldn't help laughing: "Your Highness, don't blame Zhang Wu for not reminding you to prepare half a year's salary for bidding."

Zhu Di chuckled: "You have to be able to get it."

Zhang Wu asked again, "Are you fighting cavalry or infantry?"

Zhu Di said: "Comparing pawns, one hundred households against one hundred households!"

In the military system of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, 10 people were a small banner, 50 people were a general banner, 112 people were a hundred households, 1120 people were a thousand households, and 5600 people were a guard.

Once he heard that he was against pawns, he would have an advantage!
Because when infantry confronts, the soldiers are stronger and can give full play to their advantages.

"Okay! That's it!"

In order to prevent King Yan from repenting suddenly, Zhang Wu quickly bowed and said, "Under the bid, I will go and choose pawns for His Highness King Yan."

After speaking, he slipped away without looking back.

Zhu Di smiled and shook his head, this Zhang Wu.
In fact, Zhu Di didn't think he would definitely win, it was just practice anyway.

It doesn't matter if you lose, Zhang Wu's family is not good, and there are still mothers and children to support at home, so use this method to subsidize him.

Zhu Neng, Zhang Yu, Qiu Fu, and others beside him now looked envious.

This is money!
Still infantry vs. infantry, the gap has widened again!

Zhu Neng clapped his hands and said regretfully, "Oh, if I had known that His Royal Highness Yan Wang still had this condition, I would have taken it!!"

Qiu Fu also bared his teeth: "Your Highness, can you give me another chance?"

"Giving you a chance is useless."

Zhu Di said unhappily: "I asked you just now, but you all avoided answering, and your eyes dodged. Oh, I regret it now, it's too late!"

the other side.

Zhang Wu walked a lot more briskly, as if his heart had been wiped with honey.

He first chooses his own people, he is Yanshan Zuowei Qianhu, and his subordinates manage ten hundred households.

In order to ensure that the strength of each hundred households is equal, the soldiers are all strong and weak, and evenly matched.

He directly selected the head of each hundred households, and then selected the ten most valiant soldiers from each hundred households.

As a result, the strongest team of hundreds of households has been formed!

These are his confidants, and he knows their strength very well.

Zhang Wu picked out the people and began to give lectures.

"I selected you today to form the strongest team. We will fight against the strongest opponent. You all cheered me up and won today's competition. I invite everyone to dinner!"

Upon hearing this,
This newly formed team of hundreds of households is eager to try.

These people are all good fighters, very powerful characters on the battlefield.

After getting your own team.

Zhang Wu began to help His Highness King Yan choose the team.

"What should I choose? The weaker the better"

Zhang Wu was thinking as he walked, he walked to the territory of the Huotou army in the barracks, and they were cooking.
Huh?
Looking at these fire-headed soldiers with fat heads and big ears, Zhang Wu's eyes lit up immediately!

Yes, fire soldiers are also soldiers, why can't they fight?

Choose these people for His Highness.

As a result, Zhang Wu immediately walked into the Huotou army, held up his waist card, and said loudly: "Following the order of King Yan, come here to select 100 people for a martial arts competition!"

Hearing this, the people who were cooking for the Huotou army were stunned.

Did you hear that right? ?
Let them engage in martial arts drills? ?
Isn't this a joke?
One of them shouted, "General Zhang, have you made a mistake? We are the Huo Tou Army."

Zhang Wu said seriously: "That's right, you Huotou army were selected. You guys lack exercise in daily life, and His Royal Highness King Yan just wants to train you."

Everyone: "????"

Is this really true?
A fire-headed soldier pointed to the cooking dish in the pot and asked, "Then can you still cook this meal?"

Zhang Wu said with a smile: "Of course we have to do it. How can we practice if we don't have enough food? You continue to cook, and I will pick 100 people. After eating, the people I selected will come to King Yan's camp to wait for orders."

After listening, the people in Huotou Army were speechless.

Why do you have to cook, why do you need people to perform martial arts, and don't let people rest?

Zhang Wu didn't care so much, he walked in and began to choose candidates.

"You, you, you and you. Remember later, don't forget."

Zhang Wu walked in and picked out several big fat guys in succession.

One of the fat people who was panting while walking said: "General Zhang, you are not mistaken, right? How can I compete with my physique? Aren't you trying to make things difficult for me? We are doomed."

Zhang Wu said in a deep voice: "Look at you, you are a big fat eater, you don't eat less on weekdays, don't you?"

The fat man explained: "I misunderstood, I only have this physique, and I will grow flesh even if I drink water."

Zhang Wu sneered: "Stop talking nonsense, come if you are told, you dare to disobey the military order?"

The fat man withered immediately.

Good guy, the feeling is that His Royal Highness Yan Wang found out that they were stealing food, so he specially asked Zhang Wu to pick someone, right?
Thinking of this, these fat people who were selected couldn't help being afraid for a while, and said to themselves how to explain it when they see His Highness King Yan.
Why are you taking care of this all of a sudden?

Isn't it well-known that the Huotou army steals food, who knows if they eat two bites of each dish.
That's not called stealing, that's called trying dishes, try salty! !

That's it.

Zhang Wu chose more than 100 fat people for Zhu Di.
After noon, the whole army ate.

This group of fat people was taken by Zhang Wu to the open space in front of Zhu Di's camp and waited.

These fat fire fighters are all in a nervous mood, ready to meet Zhu Di's wrath
"His Royal Highness, everyone has been selected for you."

Zhang Wu walked into the tent, Zhu Di and others were eating.

Zhu Neng said teasingly: "Zhang Wu, after choosing for so long, I'm afraid it took a lot of effort. I guess, they are all thin soldiers?"

The voice fell,

Including Zhu Di, everyone else burst out laughing.

Zhang Wu's expression remained unchanged, he cupped his hands and said: "Your Highness, it is absolutely impossible for you to do such a thing, the ones chosen for you are all physically strong."

After speaking, he almost laughed himself out.

A group of fat people are not just people with strong physiques, but they are a little too strong
"Oh?"

Zhu Di was a little puzzled and said, "Why don't a thousand people believe me? Are you so kind?"

"Your Highness doesn't believe it, just look at it."

Zhang Wu pretended to be calm.

"Then take a look."

After speaking, Zhu Di dropped the food in his hand, got up and planned to go out to have a look.

Zhang Yu, Zhu Neng and others also dropped the food in their hands and walked out of the tent.

When they left the camp, they were all stunned.

Good guy!
Definitely not a skinny soldier.
This is to select all the fattest people in the Yan army, without exception, they are all hot soldiers.

Even if it is to pick some weak soldiers.
This piece of martial arts is too outrageous. He actually selected all the cooks in the army and gave it to His Royal Highness King Yan.

"Ha ha ha ha."

Zhang Yu, Qiu Fu and the others couldn't hold back anymore, and burst out laughing.

The corner of Zhu Di's mouth twitched, he pointed at the group of fat men, and looked at Zhang Wu: "This is the soldier you chose for this king?"

Zhang Wu laughed and said, "Your Highness, let me ask you whether you are strong or not."

"Your mother, you are really a 'good' general of this king!"

Zhu Di was very angry, with black lines all over his head.

Zhang Wu teased: "Your Highness, don't underestimate the Huotou Army. Xue Rengui, a famous Tang Dynasty general, came from the Huotou Army!"

"Get out!" Zhu Di put his foot on Zhang Wu's ass, kicked him out, and cursed, "See you in the martial arts field in two hours!"

"okay."

Zhang Wu touched his butt, and ran away in a hurry.

Zhang Yu couldn't stand it anymore, and said from the side: "Your Highness, why don't you cancel this competition?"

Zhu Di waved his hand: "Since I have promised to let Zhang Wu choose someone, then I can't go back on my word!"

He walked in front of this group of fire-headed soldiers, and said loudly: "You all eat fat heads and big ears. No wonder the army is short of food. It seems that my king's food has been eaten by you fat rats."

Hearing this, the faces of the fire fighters off the field changed drastically.

"His Royal Highness, forgive me, we just can eat some."

Someone even quibbled, "Your Highness, that's a test dish."

Zhu Di was too lazy to listen to these nonsense, and waved his hand and said: "However, today I will give you a chance to make a contribution to your crime. I will personally train you and win this competition, otherwise your salary will be deducted for one month!"

Seeing that things had turned around again, everyone thanked him one after another: "Thank you, Your Highness King Yan!"

That's it.

Zhu Di began to train the group of fireheads patiently.

According to the formation drawing sent by Zhu Gaosui, they were divided into ten teams, forming ten groups of mandarin duck formations.

The weapons needed for the formation are all available in the barracks, even the firecrackers, but the firecrackers have been changed to bows and arrows, and arrows without arrows are used. After all, it is a martial arts performance and cannot really hurt people.

As for the wolf constitution, Zhu Di also immediately called someone to prepare it, and it was ready in less than a quarter of an hour.

Although it is the Huotou army, it is a soldier of the Yan army after all, and the training is not difficult.

Moreover, it was the King of Yan who trained in person, each of them was extremely serious, and no one dared to slack off.

Two hours passed quickly,

The formation is almost trained.

He led the soldiers to the martial arts arena, and all the generals followed.

As for Zhang Wu, he had brought people along and waited in the martial arts arena, looking like he was about to win.

The soldiers put on their armor one after another, and replaced their weapons with blunt weapons that they had tried.

For example, the spear with the tip removed from the spear, and the arrow without the arrow.

Once a vital point is hit, the soldier will lie down consciously and become a "dead man".

Even in this case, someone will still be injured during the martial arts performance.

After both parties are ready.

Zhu Di sat on the martial arts platform, and began to appreciate the competition, to see if the formation of mandarin ducks was so miraculous.

At this time, Zhang Yu acted as the referee, waving the small flag in his hand.

woo-

dong dong dong ——

The trumpet sounds, the war drums!
The competition has officially started!
"Brothers, rush for me!"

Zhang Wu took the lead, holding a spear and shouting: "Archery!"

The 100 people rushed towards each other in a dense manner.

The archers behind, shoot arrows towards the sky.

On the other hand, this group of fat people stood still, waiting for work.

In each team of the mandarin duck formation, there was a commanding captain who immediately ordered to block the arrows, and directly blocked the arrows with a large shield.

Then, he ordered the archers behind him to shoot arrows, and the archers shot arrows one after another.

However, this archery technique is obviously not something that can be practiced in a day or two. This bow and arrow only hit one or two people, causing one or two casualties to the other party.

Seeing this, Zhang Wu laughed, these fat people are really useless.

Wait for the next charge to knock them all down.

Zhang Wu's soldiers had already rushed forward, preparing for a hand-to-hand fight.

But at this time, the wolf gendarmes on both sides shot, and the big bamboo swept away, forming a crossfire, and immediately swept the people in front to the ground.

Although these fat people are not flexible, they are very strong.

The three-meter-long bamboo danced effortlessly.

Someone fell to the ground, and the pikemen behind them stabbed up with their pistols immediately, replenishing their pistols, one barrel at a time.

Zhang Wu's staff was instantly reduced.

"Damn, what a sinister move."

Zhang Yu scolded, can you still play like this in a war?

"Grab this bamboo and pull it back for me!"

But they ignored the fat man's strength and couldn't pull it at all.
Zhang Wu commanded the team again, don't be afraid of getting hurt, and you're not really dead, just charge inside as hard as you can, as long as you disperse the two people in front, the formation will break by itself.

Since you can't rush through the middle, then rush to the side.

"Side impact!"

Zhang Wu commanded.

The soldiers began to attack from the side, but soon found that something was wrong.

Both volumes have four spearmen, using two-meter-long spears.

In a blink of an eye, another person was turned into a hornet's nest.

On the other hand, on Zhang Wu's side, in order to quickly resolve the battle and improve mobility, the soldiers were equipped with long knives and no spears at all.

There are people on both sides with big forks, and they can't get in at all.

As soon as he entered, he was stuck in the neck, and then he would be stabbed a few times with a long gun.

Don't look at the people led by Zhang Wu are all brave people, but they can't hold back their strength and have nowhere to use them. Facing this mandarin duck formation, it feels like fighting a bastard again, which is airtight.

"Damn, surround them first."

Seeing that the number of soldiers in the team is getting smaller and smaller, Zhang Wu is also a little anxious.

He began to feel that something was wrong. The most feared thing about this formation is other people's active attack. It is almost a completely defensive formation.
If we fight like this, I'm afraid we'll lose!
