Chapter 89 Punishment, Professor (Thanks to "Xie Xiaoxin" for becoming the leader of this book)
"Assault in the middle!"
Jiang Qing gave the order.
The flag wavered.
The big flag in the middle waved in response, and then launched an assault.
The imaginary enemy on the opposite side was not willing to be outdone and pulled people from the right to reinforce the middle.
The two sides were entangled.
"Left, charge!"
Jiang Qingzhi shouted.
Just when the opponent's attention was on the middle, an attack suddenly launched from the left.
The opponent's right wing had previously transferred a lot of people to reinforce the middle wing, and now after being hit like this, they were in a bit of chaos.
"Reinforcements." The one commanding the imaginary enemy on the opposite side was Yan Xu, who shouted hoarsely: "Middle road... Middle road cannot be moved, left road, left road reinforcements."
But if the left wing wants to reinforce the right wing, it must pass through the battlefield in the middle where the fighting is going on.
It will disperse the middle lane of our side.
If we are not careful, we will be defeated without a fight.
"Not right!" Yan Xu realized his mistake, "Go around it."
But if the left side wants to go around the middle, the price to pay is time.
When the left reinforcements bypassed, the right flank had already begun to collapse. The defeated army swept away the reinforcements and fled in disorder.
"Failed."
Yan Xu smiled bitterly and looked up at the big flag opposite. "I have always felt that I am a talented person who is not appreciated. If I could lead an army alone, I would definitely shine. I have tried my best these days, but... I have been defeated again and again when facing Lord Bo."
This battle is over.
The generals congratulated him, but Jiang Qingzhi frowned and remained noncommittal.
Yan Xu is here.
Everyone looked at him with complicated eyes.
Since Jiang Qingzhi came to Huben Zuowei, Yan Xu has become a favorite of this Lord. Huang Sande was driven away, and a new commander should be sent, but the Ministry of War has not made any move.
Jiang Qingzhi ordered Yan Xu to take charge of the Huben Zuowei, which was an opportunity for him to stand out.
Yan Xu did not let him down and managed the Huben Zuowei in an orderly manner.
Human destiny is truly amazing.
After being suppressed for many years, everyone thought Yan Xu had spent his life in such a timid and cowardly way. Who would have thought that in one day, the situation would change and he would turn things around.
Yan Xu came forward and said sincerely, "I accept defeat wholeheartedly."
Only then did everyone realize that he was sweating profusely. Looking at the sky, it was cloudy and quite cool today.
So, it was during the previous battle drill that he was exhausted by Jiang Qingzhi's various tactics.
"Your use of troops is interesting, but you lack adaptability." Jiang Qingzhi spoke, and all the generals quickly listened attentively.
This is a free military strategy lesson. You’d be a fool if you don’t learn it.
Thinking about how Jiang Qingzhi had been crushing and beating Yan Xu in drills recently, these generals were excited. If Jiang Qingzhi was willing to accept him as a disciple, the entire Huben Zuowei would become his disciples and be willing to be his lackeys.
"Array up!"
Jiang Qingzhi looked at the generals coldly.
The generals were startled, and Yan Xu was the first to react, shouting, "Form a battle array!"
According to Jiang Qingzhi's rules, unless he, the commander-in-chief, issued an order to rest, all the soldiers in the army were not allowed to slack off.
But now...
The generals were waiting for him to preach with anticipation, and the soldiers below began to become lazy.
The array took shape quickly.
Jiang Qingzhi said coldly: "If the enemy army was still there, and I were the enemy general, I would only need 300 elite cavalry to defeat the Tiger Guards!"
"idiot!"
Jiang Qingzhi was furious.
Zhu Xizhong stood aside with a calm expression, as if he was not the one leading this trip.
The attendants around him were also studying, so no one noticed what the old playboy was mumbling.
"...We must not slack off until the enemy leaves..."
Jiang Qingzhi's rage soared to the sky.
"What is a warrior's duty? To kill the enemy and serve the country. On the battlefield, what is your first priority? Kill the enemy, kill the enemy, and damn, kill the enemy!"
"While killing the enemy, he is also thinking about how to please his superiors. Such a general should get out of the army as soon as possible, so as not to drag his brothers to death!"
The soldiers were horrified.
It turns out that Long Wilbur was so strict for the sake of our lives.
"Go, everyone stand up!"
Jiang Qingzhi pointed at the array.
Yan Xu took the lead and the generals stood in the front row of the formation.
The wind blew and the clouds dispersed.
The sun is coming.
The sound of cicadas chirping is incessant. It used to be very pleasant to hear, but today it makes people irritated and uneasy.
No one dared to move.
Chen Bao, that beast, has gained Jiang Qingzhi's favor since the last fight in the Ministry of War. Now he leads a team of soldiers, specializing in military law correction.
Once someone was found violating military law, he would be beaten with a big stick first, and then dragged like a dead dog to the small dark room mentioned by Captain Wilbur and locked up.
At first, no one cared about the small dark room, but when the first group of people who had gone in and "enjoyed" it came out, their faces turned pale and they swore to strictly abide by military regulations from then on and not dare to step out of line.
Jiang Qingzhi was standing there. Zhu Xizhong came over and said, "Qingzhi, there are quite a few spies around..."
"It's almost done." Jiang Qingzhi said, "It's okay to let them take a look at the front. The rest should be kept secret."
"Brother knows."
The old dandy turned around and ordered, "Encircle them from behind, beat them all into pig heads, and bring them back to the small dark room."
"Leader!"
The spies from various families had been enjoying the show for a while. At first, they were alert and ready to run away at any time. But when they found that Jiang Qingzhi didn't care at all, they became more bold.
There were houses near the military camp, and these spies sat on the roofs of the houses, observing and commenting without restraint. Some even brought snacks and drinks, and ate and drank on the roofs while commenting on the situation.
"Even if Jiang Qingzhi finds out, what does it matter?" A spy drank a glass of wine, picked up a few roasted beans and put them in his mouth, chewing them until they were crisp. After swallowing, he said, "There are people from various families here, including the Jinyiwei and even the spies in the palace. Does he dare to expel your majesty's spies?"
"He dares?!" someone said disdainfully, gnawing on a leg of lamb with oil dripping from his mouth.
"Hahahaha!" Everyone laughed.
Chen Ji led more than a hundred people and approached the residential area quietly.
The last time his subordinates killed Wang Xintian, the head of the Ministry of Works, Chen Ji decisively took the blame. He was exempted from punishment afterwards, but he kept a low profile for a while.
This time, Jiang Qingzhi selected more than a hundred people from the army for him to lead. During this period, he did nothing else but worked hard every day, climbing mountains, climbing trees, and swimming... He would train himself to death as long as he was not dead.
His subordinates complained bitterly, and Chen Ji wanted to back down several times. However, when he thought of Jiang Qingzhi's kindness to him, he gritted his teeth and encouraged his subordinates to overcome their mental and physical limits time and time again.
Watching the agile movements of his subordinates, Chen Ji's heart moved slightly and he had some guesses.
Long Wilbur made us go through all this trouble, it seems like he has some ulterior motive!
He shook his head, dispelling all distracting thoughts, and stared at the dozen people laughing on the roof in front of him. "Do it!"
The raid involving more than a hundred people was conducted in a grand manner.
"Mom! Run!"
The spies on the roof were doing hopscotch, and some were running around on the roof. Someone even stepped through the roof and fell down, breaking his leg. His screams resounded through the sky.
In just a moment, more than ten spies were caught.
"Captain, two with broken legs, three who resisted, accidentally got caught by the brothers..."
The two with broken legs were screaming in agony, and the three who were resisting looked as if they had just been ravaged by a group of ferocious beasts. They were in a miserable state.
Chen Ji's cheeks trembled slightly, and then he went back to report.
"here you go."
Jiang Qingzhi nodded, and at this moment the training ground was completely silent.
Under the scorching sun, the soldiers dared not move.
Chen Bao slapped his palm with a wooden stick and said with some regret: "Damn it, the uncle said that if we catch one, we will be rewarded with fifty coins. Why didn't anyone break the rules today?"
Everyone in the array who heard this glared at him.
"If you have the guts, just jump out and hit me. The only one who doesn't dare is my grandson." Chen Bao smiled.
A small flag could not help but curse: "You bastard!"
Chen Bao was overjoyed, "Pull it out, it's him! Pull it out!"
Xiaoqi regretted what he said the moment he said it. After being pulled out and beaten with a stick, Chen Bao said happily, "Send him to the small dark room!"
Fifty coins in hand!
An hour later, more than ten people fell in the formation.
Then, people fell down one after another.
The people of Chenbao immediately carried out the fallen soldiers, treated them with the doctors who had been on standby, and then carried them to the shade of the trees to rest.
Another hour passed.
Jiang Qingzhi then spoke, "Collect!"
"Master Bo's order, receive it!"
The array was strangely silent.
Zhu Xizhong was surprised. "Damn it, have these people all become mutants? They are so hardworking."
puff!
puff!
One after another, the soldiers either collapsed or fell down, and few of them could walk normally.
"Dead, dead!"
"my leg!"
"I have a cramp, help me!"
"I can't move!"
Jiang Qingzhi turned around, his face pale.
"Qingzhi, you..." Zhu Xizhong was startled, and then he remembered Jiang Qingzhi's lung disease, "Hey! Next time my brother comes, you can take a rest."
Jiang Qingzhi moved his legs with difficulty, his smile was quite stiff, "I want you to come, but you are still a little short of the heat."
"Don't hit someone in the face!" Zhu Xizhong supported him, "I have only helped the elderly in my family in my life. Today you are blessed."
"Don't help." Jiang Qingzhi shook his head, "As a general, you must not show weakness."
"What do you mean?"
"art of war."
"Good brother, tell me."
"Isn't this included in your family's military tactics?" Jiang Qingzhi felt strange.
"What a bullshit military strategy." Zhu Xizhong smiled bitterly. "It was said that there were a few so-called military strategies, but when I compared my brother's and yours' methods of leading troops, damn..."
"What do you think?" Jiang Qingzhi thought that the first generation Duke Cheng was also a famous general of the Ming Dynasty, so the military tactics he passed down should be good!
Zhu Xizhong avoided talking about this topic. "I am very curious about where you learned those military tactics. They are so elusive."
The military tactics passed down by Zhu Neng were good, but compared with Jiang Qingzhi's comprehensive military tactics, Zhu Xizhong was ashamed to mention it.
"Read widely and gain a comprehensive understanding of the knowledge." Jiang Qingzhi felt that what he said was true.
"There are many people who read widely, but who has mastered the art of war?" Zhu Xizhong sighed, "Brother used to treat those military strategies as heirlooms, but..."
The heirloom that was carefully hidden in the Chengguo Mansion has become a common item in your hands.
"I am from the palace, fuck you, let me go!"
A spy was dragged backwards by two soldiers into a small dark room, struggling and shouting frantically.
Chen Ji bowed, "Uncle..."
Jiang Qingzhi glanced at him and asked, "What's the matter?"
Chen Ji suddenly remembered what Jiang Qingzhi said when he came to Huben Zuowei.
Military law, military law, and damn military law.
I almost violated the uncle's taboo. Chen Ji's heart trembled, "Yes."
Jiang Qingzhi continued the previous topic and explained Zhu Xizhong's doubts, "A general is the soul of an army. What kind of general you are, what kind of army you will lead. If you show weakness and expose your weaknesses or other flaws to your subordinates, you will not only lose your prestige, but more importantly, this will cause the soldiers below to lose all confidence."
Zhu Xizhong was startled, "It can't be that serious, right?"
"If all military merits become like you, brother! I'm really going to go crazy." Jiang Qingzhi thought of the 'famous generals' of the Ming Dynasty who were beaten by Altan Khan. Those guys were considered top-notch in the Ming Dynasty. One can imagine the leadership ability of traditional meritorious relatives like Zhu Xizhong.
He also didn't think about how the military heroes and generals of this era had the opportunity to systematically study the military strategies of ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad, and also to collect the comments of military masters from all dynasties.
If Jiang Qingzhi were to throw out that set of military books, it would cause an earthquake in the capital!
It can drive warriors all over the world crazy.
The things he disdains are priceless in the eyes of others.
"The success of an army depends on its generals. Do you understand?"
Jiang Qingzhi said to Zhu Xizhong who had some understanding.
"Yes, Chang Yuchun has a fiery temper, and his subordinates are aggressive. Lan Yu is as still as a mountain, and his subordinates are steady, and they will not be moved even if the enemy is strong... The general is the soul of the army."
This is a secret that is not to be passed on! But Qingzhi told me casually... Zhu Xizhong bowed and thanked him solemnly.
"Duke Cheng, save me!"
The spy in the palace saw Zhu Xizhong and thought to himself, if you, Duke Chengguo, dare not save me, His Majesty will not forgive you later.
Zhu Xizhong waved his hand, signaling to send him away, and then looked at his younger brother with burning eyes, "Qingzhi, I am old, and I am afraid I will never have the opportunity to lead an army alone in this life. But your nephew has some talent. Otherwise, I will ask him to kowtow and become my disciple one day?"
Jiang Qingzhi held a cigarette in his mouth and said, "It depends on whether he is interested. Forcing a cow to drink water will only make the relationship between father and son worse and worse."
He casually said something that was a commonplace in later generations, but Zhu Xizhong's expression changed slightly, and he bowed and said, "I'm grateful for your advice."
Jiang Qingzhi was stunned. "You and my nephew, are you..."
"Nothing, nothing."
Zhu Xizhong laughed it off, but turned around and said with a wry smile: "If I had met Qingzhi earlier, things wouldn't have ended like this between father and son."
……
The fourth update.
