Late Tang

Chapter 42

(Thanks for the reward of Heavenly Sword, thank you!)

Li Jing's words boosted morale, and was about to order the training to start, but saw a cloud of smoke and dust rising, and more than ten riders came straight to Li Jing and others.

Lin Wu, the deputy head of the team, stepped forward to greet him first, and then ran back quickly.

"Team leader, Song Du Yuhou, Coach Lin, Wang Coach and Wendengying Song Ten Generals came to inspect, and Zuo Yidu Wang Jiangtou and Zhang Yuhou accompanied him." The identity is reported to Li Jing.

After hearing this, Li Jing couldn't help being stunned for a moment, not to mention that Wang Zhong and Zhang Hong who accompanied him are both their direct superiors.As far as Zhang Duyuhou, the two coaches and the top ten generals of Song Dynasty are the top figures in the Dengzhou Unity Camp.

There are four battalions under the Dengzhou United Army, each named after the county.There are ten generals in charge of each battalion, and there are five capitals on the left and right, and two teams in each capital.Wendeng camp has 1000 troops and is commanded by ten generals Song Xi. There are five capitals on the left and right, each with a general.And Li Jing's first team is exactly the first team of the two teams controlled by Wang Zhongzuoyidu.

Both Wang Zhong and Song Xi are Li Jing's immediate superiors, but Zhang Du, Yuhou, and Lin and Wang's coaches are even bigger.

In the late Tang Dynasty, whether it was in the imperial army, the yamen army of the feudal town or the soldiers of the border towns, as well as the soldiers of the Zhizhou counties, the county towns, or the united soldiers, all of them had the post of Marquis of Yu.At the army and town level, there is the Marquis of Yu, at the battalion level there is the Marquis of General Yu, and then until the level of the capital, there is the Marquis of Yu.

Regarding the responsibilities of the official position of Marquis Yu, it is clearly written: the job is to assassinate rape, and the power belongs to the whole brigade.The advance and retreat of Qi's military orders, and the denial of Ming lawyers.This sentence points out that the greatest duty of Marquis Yu is to enforce the law in the army, clean up military discipline in peacetime, and supervise battles in wartime.Moreover, Marquis Yu is not only law enforcement in the army, they are also in charge of the army.In the late Tang Dynasty, Marquis Yu and Marquis Yu were important military posts, usually held by cronies of the governors of feudal towns.

In the Dengzhou Unity Camp, the highest position is the regiment training envoy, which is concurrently held by the governor of Dengzhou.Further down, Shi Fengyanqing, governor of Dengzhou, also served as the deputy envoy of regiment training.

But in actual control, the actual control of the Dengzhou Unity Camp is controlled by Du Yuhou and the ten generals of the Fourth Battalion, who were appointed and dismissed by the commander-in-chief of Ziqing Pinlu Jiedu.Song Wen, the envoy of the Marquis of Yu in the capital of Dengzhou, is the confidant of Song Wei, the governor of the Jiedu envoy, who is also a fellow of the same family. Among the five officers sent down, Song Wen is above the ten generals of the four battalions, and is actually the head of the Dengzhou battalion. .

As for the two coaches, although their positions are not high, their positions are very important.The gathering of Dengzhou solidarity troops in Penglai in January was not a real training.The real purpose of their gathering in Penglai was to carry out a roll call and reorganize the list of officers in each battalion and even each team.The appointment and dismissal of officers at the battalion level was basically decided by the commander-in-chief of the Jiedu envoy, but the appointment and dismissal of officers at the capital and brigade levels were assessed by the two coaches.

Li Jing had never met Song Wen, Song Xi and the other four ten generals before. When he entered the city, these five chief officials had not yet arrived from Qingzhou.He didn't expect that Song Wen and others arrived in Penglai so quickly, and as soon as they arrived in Penglai, they would be in the first team of him immediately.

"Li Jing, the head of the first team of Zuoyidu in the humble Wendeng camp, pays homage to Song Du Yuhou, Wang Coach Envoy, Lin Coach Envoy, Song Ten Generals, Wang Jiangtou, and Zhang Yuhou!" Li Jing stepped forward quickly, Respectfully greet Song Wen and others.

Suddenly a large group of bosses arrived, and Li Jing was indeed a little apprehensive.Although he is a protégé of the governor and Sima, Song Wen is the confidant of the Jiedushi, and he is also the Marquis of Duyu of the Dengzhou United Army and the de facto commander of the Dengzhou camp. Said, not to mention his little disciple.

Unexpectedly, Song Wen was very young, which surprised Li Jing a little.Song Wen is six feet tall, about the same height as Li Jing, but very dark and thin.To Li Jing, Song Wen seemed to be a skeleton, and he was very young. Li Jing guessed that he was 27 or [-] at most.However, his bony figure and several scars on his face made people feel afraid to look directly at him.

Song Wen's gaze was very sharp. He sized up Li Jing for about half an hour, and when he saw that Li Jing felt uneasy, he got off the horse and stepped forward to help Li Jing get up.

Li Jing and Song Wei held hands together, feeling that they were very rough and calloused hands.His hands are very strong, and Li Jing can feel a huge force coming from his hands.

"You are Li Jing? You look more like a scholar." Song Wen smiled, but when he laughed, the scars on his skinny face were even more frightening. "I saw from a distance that you seemed to be lecturing just now, what did you say?"

Li Jing replied respectfully: "There are still two days before the start of the camp, and our team has no tasks for the time being. Therefore, I want to take this opportunity to conduct an assessment and training for the whole team, to find out the bottom line, and then form groups according to the length of each person, and will Among them, the outstanding ones are elected as the chief and deputy corporal chiefs, and the chief and deputy team chiefs."

Song Wen smiled noncommittally, "Daying will start this matter as soon as the camp opens, but if you can take the first step instead of waiting, it shows that you are very motivated. Yes, just right, I just started today. When you arrive in Penglai and enter the camp for the first time, then watch your team's assessment training first, don't worry about us, just proceed according to your plan, I'll just wait here and watch."

"I also ask Song Du Yuhou to teach the brothers a few words, so that the brothers can also feel the Shangguan's admonition!"

Song Wen looked at Li Jing and smiled, making Li Jing feel a little nervous.For this new Shangguan, Li Jing always has a feeling that he can't see through.He is young, he is indeed young, that is, he is not yet thirty.However, the many scars on his face are obviously scars from the battlefield.In addition, I heard that he is Song Wei's kin and confidant, and thinking that Song Wei is a general who fought many big battles in southern Xinjiang and Nanzhao, then Song Wen is definitely not someone to wait for.However, he doesn't have the domineering feeling of a general, so Li Jing can't figure out his thoughts.

"Just now, my officer took a closer look at your queue. If you consider that you were farmers in the fields in the countryside ten days ago, then your queue is still neatly arranged, which is very good. It can be said that even the queue of new recruits from the Shence Imperial Army may That's all."

Hearing this, the recruits below were all a little excited, it was not easy to get such a big official to praise in person.

"Do you feel very happy after hearing what I said, or even a little proud?" Song Wen smiled, which was uglier than crying.

Li Jing always felt that something was wrong when he heard this, and sure enough, Song Wen's tone immediately became severe.

"You are wrong, although you may be stronger than the mud legs in the field, but that's all. Compared with the veterans who have survived the sea of ​​swords and blood, you are a pile of scum, and you are not even as good as scum As you are now, if you are brought to Nanjiang to fight with the Nanzhao people, I bet that none of you will come back alive."

"War is not a child's play. Don't think that you will not go to the battlefield because you are just a unity camp. I tell you that there are bandits everywhere. I tell you the truth. Maybe in March, maybe half a year, you may be on the battlefield. No matter Whether it's banditry in the mountains or fighting in the frontier, even a group of veterans have a very high chance of dying under the feathers of swords, guns and arrows. If you want to ask if there is any chance of improving your survival, I can tell you that it is time to eat now The guy is still on your necks, train hard, only in this way can you have a chance in the future."

"I won't say much about it. Now that I have entered the military camp, and I am now Du Yuhou who is in charge of law enforcement in the army, I will say a few words about it now. That is, from now on, the Dengzhou Unity Battalion will implement the seven bans and 54 cuts. Military orders, anyone who dares to violate military orders will be executed according to the law."

"Listen well, the seven prohibitions: underestimate the army, slow the army, steal the army, deceive the army, betray the army, disrupt the army, and misuse the army; anyone who violates this prohibition will be executed."

"Whoever commits the following 54 items shall be beheaded immediately: [-]: Hearing the drums, not advancing, hearing the gold, not being able to raise the flag, not holding down the flag, this is called disobedience to the army, and the offender will be beheaded."

"Five: Raise your voice and laugh, disregard the prohibition agreement, and rush through the gate of the army. This is called a light army, and the offender will be beheaded."

"Six: The weapons used, the bows and crossbows are absolutely stringless, the arrows have no feathers, the swords and halberds are not good, and the flags are withered. This is called deceiving the army, and the offender will be beheaded."

"Seven: Rumors and deceitful words, fabricating ghosts and gods, pretending to be asleep, talking heresy, bewitching soldiers, this is called a lewd army, and the perpetrators will beheaded."

"Eight: Having a sharp tongue and sharp teeth, acting recklessly, mobilizing soldiers to make them discord, this is called slandering the army, and offenders will be beheaded."

"Nine: Wherever you go, abuse the people, if you rape women, this is called a treacherous army, and the perpetrators will beheaded."

"Ten: Stealing people's property for their own benefit, taking someone's head for their own merit, this is called stealing an army, and the perpetrator will beheaded."

"Eleventh: Soldiers and civilians gather to discuss matters, sneak into tents privately, and listen to military planes. This is called spying on the army, and the offenders will be executed."

"Twelve: If you hear the plan, or hear the order, leak it to the outside, so that the enemy will know it. This is called betraying the army, and the offender will be beheaded."

"Thirteen: When invoking, be tongue-tied, lower your eyebrows and bow your head, with a look of embarrassment on your face. This is called a ruthless army, and the offender will beheaded."

"Fourteen: Going out to march in the army, helping the front and the rear, talking loudly, and not obeying the forbidden instructions, this is called a disorderly army, and the offenders will beheaded."

"Fifteen: Suspicion of injuries to avoid conquests, pinching wounds and feigning death, so as to escape. This is called cheating the army, and the offenders will beheaded."

"Sixteen: In charge of money and food, when giving rewards, A private relatives, causing soldiers to quarrel, this is called a malpractice army, and the offenders will beheaded."

"Seventeen: Observing bandits without interrogation, scouting bandits without details, when they arrive, they don't say anything, if there are many, there will be few words, and if there are few, there will be more words.

A series of beheaded characters, every time a beheaded character was said, the faces of the soldiers in the first team couldn't help turning pale.When Song Wen announced the 54 beheading in one breath, Li Jing even smelled a smell of urine, and someone was scared to pee by this extremely severe military order.
