Jiapingguan Chronicle

Chapter 244 The Cat Catches the Mouse 3.0

"The lights are on inside. Has anyone come early?" Approaching the big tent of the Chinese army, Shen Cha heard Mei Lin, Mei Zhu and a few shadows chatting and laughing inside, "It turned out to be them, it seems that the Nuan Pavilion It's already packed, ah, these guys are doing things faster and faster!"

"Come in!" Shen Haolin lifted the heavy curtain of the tent and let Shen Cha in. "You guys keep your voices down, your laughter can be heard from far away."

"Commander, General!" Mei Lin, Mei Zhu, Ying Fifteen, Ying Seventeen, and Ying Eighteen saw two people coming in, stopped what they were doing, and bowed to them, "It's not time yet, Why don't you rest for a while?"

"It's good to come here to rest, don't worry about being late." Shen Cha looked at the guards and shadows who had changed into soft armor, "Are you all so impatient?"

"If you have a chance to show your strength, of course you have to be more active!" Merlin put another charcoal basin next to the handsome case, "Although there are several charcoal basins burned in the big tent, it is not as warm as the room. The cold wind is blowing here, and the subordinates brought a few thick blankets. If the marshal and general feel cold, they can cover them. Also, this..." Merlin stuffed the three prepared hand stoves to Shen Cha, "Don't take off the cloak. You have to go to the school ground later. You can easily catch cold if you put it on and off. Getting sick during this solar term is very fatal!"

"Okay, listen to you!" Sitting with Shen Haolin behind the handsome table, Shen Cha held the hand stove, "What should we talk about before we come in? I feel very happy."

"Boss, I just went to check the school grounds." Ying Shiqi came over with a big teapot and refilled the cups in front of Shen Haolin and Shen Cha. It’s a much more lively time.”

"Oh? Why don't you hide it?" Shen Haolin picked up the teacup, blew on it twice, and took a sip, "How many people do you think there are?"

"It's not as many as we imagined." Ying Shiqi sat on the lower head of Shen Haolin and put the teapot aside, "There are more people than before, about ten thousand people, I wandered around the school grounds twice, almost They are all from the rear army, and, more interestingly, they are all under the command of the two county princes, none of the soldiers under the front army, the middle army, or the other generals of the rear army."

"Already thought of it!" Shen Haolin and Shen Cha nodded at the same time, "What kind of general is there, and what kind of soldiers are under his command. Look at us two county princes, what we are thinking about is not to be transferred to the vanguard battalion Even if they are not transferred to the Pioneer Battalion, it is very good to be transferred to the former army. Moreover, the two of them once said that they cannot go alone alone. If there is such an opportunity, they want to take all the people with them They were all transferred to the former army. Therefore, the brothers under them didn't want to disappoint the two county princes. That's why they practiced without day and night. They didn't want to drag the county prince back, and they didn't want to affect themselves. Brother's future."

"Hearing what you said, why are you suddenly a little moved?" Mei Zhu also came over, "But, after going on like this day and night, it's easier to miss when it comes to the real competition? Don't they understand that, Only when you have a good rest can you devote yourself to training better?"

"People's potential is unlimited." Shen Haolin smiled, "When encountering difficulties and hardships, they will explode violently. Seeing them like this, I suddenly don't have the heart to punish them. What should I do?"

"Small punishment and big punishment, just give them a deterrent. It can't really be that harsh. The new barracks can't stand up now. The punishment is too harsh. In the end, we will be the ones who will be unlucky." Shen Cha looked at him and kept frowning. Unzhan Ying Shiqi said, "Your brows are twisted into two knots, what are you thinking about?"

"I don't quite understand their thinking. What's so good about this vanguard battalion? Everyone has to go in." Ying Shiqi yawned, "I will accumulate a lot of military exploits, I admit this, but This time is very short, and the chance of being injured is very high. Just look at the speed at which Lord Hou’s vanguard battalion is being replaced. How fast, Lord Hou said two days ago. We need to change a group of people."

"It's not just that every year is getting faster and faster, but now things are getting faster and faster month by month." Ying Shiba also sat down, "Don't talk about the past, let's talk about the past year, in just a few months During the fighting period, the vanguard battalion had changed three times. There were too many injured and sick people, and it was impossible to make up for it. Especially the elite battalion led by Xiaojiu, he was very careful and careful, but he still couldn't resist. Stop your brother from being injured. If it weren’t for our Shadow Battalion going to support and helping out from time to time, the Pioneer Battalion would have existed in name only.”

"The replacement speed of the vanguard battalion is too fast, which has always been a problem that we are very worried about." Shen Haolin nodded, ""But there is no way, as long as there is a war, it cannot be avoided.Not only our Shen family army, but other armies and the vanguard battalions of Liao and Jin are facing the same predicament.

"The pressure on Liao and Jin is a little bit less, because the offensive and charge capabilities of their central and rear troops are almost the same as those of the vanguard, and they can be supplemented at any time. But they are completely offensive. Once the attack fails , they can only end up in a panic, which is their biggest problem. But we don’t have this kind of situation, we can attack and defend, and in the long run, we still have the advantage.”

"The advantage belongs to the advantage, but this problem still needs to be solved." Shen Haolin sighed, "So, I have always had an idea."

"Oh?" Shen Cha raised his eyebrows, and smiled at Shen Haolin, "What a coincidence, I also have an idea."

"Your idea is not to have each army choose a vanguard battalion, is it?" Seeing Shen Cha nodding slightly, Shen Haolin smiled, "This is a tacit understanding."

"It's a tacit understanding." Shen Cha put down the teacup in his hand, "Although each army is equipped with a vanguard battalion, the emphasis is different. During the meal just now, I talked about the reorganization of the crossbow team. It is necessary. The duties of the front army remain unchanged. They are responsible for charging and investigating the enemy's situation. The central army is the epitome of the entire Shen family army. The rear army... sometimes also needs to play the role of the front army, so let them feel it What kind of experience is it to go to the front line?"

"To sum up, no matter the front army, the middle army, or the rear army, they must be omnipotent!" Ying Shiqi stretched his waist, "If the news of your intentions gets out, the entire Shen family army will be blown up, and they will be very happy Yes. The daily practice will be very serious and full of energy."

"This is what I want." Shen Haolin saw that Shen Cha took out the roster and the merit book and looked through it carefully, and asked, "Do you want to select the members of the bow and crossbow team from it?"

"Yeah!" Shen Cha nodded, took the pen and paper, wrote the name of the target he had chosen on it, wrote about one or two hundred names, and handed the paper to Ying Shiqi, "Go and see if these people have If it’s not on the school grounds, circle it and mark it.”

"Okay!" Ying Shiqi took the paper, stood up and ran to the door of the big tent, opened the curtain, and saw Song Qiyun and Xia Jiu were about to come in, he turned sideways to let the two county princes advance.When Song Qiyun walked in front of him, Ying Shiqi bared his teeth at him, "Your Majesty, it's really great, very touching!"

After speaking, he blinked at Song Qiyun and Xia Jiu, and Ying Shiqi ran away in a hurry.

"This..." Song Qiyun and Xia Jiu looked at each other, and looked blankly at Shen Haolin and Shen Cha who were sitting behind the handsome table and waving at him, "What did we miss? What is the situation now?"
