Chapter 10

At the east gate of Minshan Fort, Yuan Wenshao stood there with more than ten soldiers.

"Lieutenant, why did Duke Ding come to Minshan Fort to inspect?" Zhang An asked doubtfully.

Yuan Wenshao said: "Winter is coming soon. In previous years, this time was the most frequent time for raids from Western Xia and Zhou Dynasty. Duke Ding would patrol around to see the situation of various fortresses."

"But I heard from the soldiers of Minshan Fort that Duke Ding has never visited Minshan Fort in these years." Zhang An said.

"There are so many fortresses, it is impossible for Duke Ding to inspect all of them, so it is not surprising to come to Minshan Fort," Yuan Wenshao said.

That's what he said, but Yuan Wenshao felt that the reason why Sun Qi came to Minshan Fort for inspection was either to cause trouble for him, or he also felt that Xixia might choose some trails because of the tight defense of some important fortresses.

But no matter what the possibility is, it is a good thing for Sun Qi to come to inspect.

Since taking office, Yuan Wenshao has not been idle. When Sun Qi comes, he can also let him see his answer sheet.

"Captain, Duke Ding is here." Qin Li reminded.

In addition to Yuan Wenshao, the school lieutenant, Min Shanbao also had two centurions, one of whom, after he took office, acted in a false manner, and was beaten by dozens of military sticks by him as a young bird.

And Qin Li was originally a corps leader, but he was promoted to be a centurion.

Although Yuan Wenshao was the biggest official in Minshan Fort, he did not have the right to appoint or dismiss the centurion, so he had to be represented by Qin Li.

Even so, Qin Li was very grateful to Yuan Wenshao, and he followed his lead.

Without Qin Li's reminder, Yuan Wenshao also saw dust flying in the distance, and a large group of people was rushing here.

The first person was riding a tall horse, wearing silver armor. He looked to be in his forties and full of majesty. He was Gongsun Qi of Dingguo.

Sun Qi joined the army incognito at the age of 15 and rose from a small soldier to the rank of General Yang Wei.

It wasn't until Duke Lao Ding died in battle that his identity was revealed.

Sun Qi's ability to control the military power in the northwest has a lot to do with his ability, in addition to the Dingguo Palace.

Because of this, Sun Qi looked down upon the noble families in Bianjing.

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, literature was more important than military affairs, and many people in Lord Bianjing had already abandoned martial arts and followed literature.

A lord who does not join the army is still called a lord?

Sun Qi thought that Yuan Wenshao was the kind of educated boy who wanted to join the army and become an official because he was not good at writing.

Naturally, he didn't want it because of his temper, but the first generation Zhongqin Bo was his ancestor's subordinates, and Yuan Weichangtuo's people had a high status in the Northwest Army, so he had to give face.

Yesterday, when I inspected Guining Fort, which was dozens of miles away from Minshan Fort, I remembered Yuan Wenshao from Minshan Fort, so I turned over.

"My subordinate Yuan Wenshao meets Duke Dingguo and Cheng Shoubei!"

When Sun Qi and his party approached, Yuan Wenshao quickly led people to greet them.

"Excuse me."

Immediately, Sun Qi nodded slightly, looking at the soldiers behind Yuan Wenshao, with a flash of surprise in his eyes.

Whether an army is powerful or not can be seen from its spirit.

The soldiers behind Yuan Wenshao had solemn faces, with spirit in their eyes.

As a veteran general in the army, Sun Qi could naturally see that these soldiers were much more powerful than ordinary soldiers.

Yuan Wenshao noticed Sun Qi's strange behavior and smiled to himself.

No matter in his past life or this life, Yuan Wenshao had never led a soldier, but the original owner had read many military books, and he had also participated in military training in his previous life, and had seen many methods of training soldiers on TV.

During this period of time, he was training and groping, but with little success.

Sun Qi recovered quickly, lightly clamped the horse's belly with his feet, and took the lead towards Minshan Fort.

Yuan Wenshao took the horse from Zhang An, rode on it, and followed Sun Qi, half a body behind Cheng Shoubei.

It stands to reason that many of Sun Qi's entourage had higher official positions than Yuan Wenshao, so he shouldn't be ranked so high, but he was in charge of guarding Minshan Fort, so naturally he had to follow Sun Qi's side, so that he could answer any questions Sun Qi had in a timely manner.

Sun Qi drove his horse to the gate of the city, stopped, and saw two teams of soldiers standing upright and neatly lined up on both sides of the gate.

"Dong Guo, why did you stop?" Wu'an City guard Cheng Deyuan asked in confusion.

"Look at these two teams of soldiers." Sun Qi raised his chin and said.

Cheng Deyuan was taken aback for a moment, and began to size up.

"How?" Sun Qi asked.

"Judging from the momentum and military appearance, they are very elite." Cheng Deyuan said.

"Deyuan, are you old with the Yuan family?" Sun Qi asked.

Cheng Deyuan was taken aback, and quickly explained: "Mr. Ding, this subordinate has wronged me. The soldiers in Minshan Fort are still the same people, and my subordinate did not replace him."

"Really not?" Sun Qi asked with some doubts.

It is reasonable to say that Min Shanbao are all ordinary soldiers, but looking at them now, they are very elite. He suspects that Cheng Deyuan has transferred some of the elite soldiers of Wu'an City to Yuan Wenshao.

But Cheng Deyuan didn't look like that, after all, this kind of thing can be found out, Cheng Deyuan should not dare to lie.

"Mr. Dingguo, Wu'an City has too few subordinates, so how can you be willing to transfer the elite to others?" Cheng Deyuan said aggrievedly.

There are three Xixia cities within a hundred miles of Wu'an City. Every year when Xixia loots, Wu'an City loses the most.

Although Minshan Fort is one of the bridgeheads of Wu'an City, for him, Wu'an City is the most important. How can he be willing to mobilize Wu'an City's elite to guard Minshan Fort.

Sun Qi felt that what Cheng Deyuan said should be true, looked at Yuan Wenshao who was not far behind Cheng Deyuan, and asked, "You trained all these soldiers?"

"Duke Hui Ding, he was trained by his subordinates." Yuan Wenshao cupped his hands.

Sun Qi was a little surprised when he heard the words: "I remember that you have only been in office for more than a month, right?"

"My subordinate has been in office for one month and nine days," Yuan Wenshao replied.

"In a little over a month, you can train ordinary soldiers to such an appearance, even the old man can't do it, how did you do it?" Sun Qi asked.

If Yuan Wenshao can really train his soldiers like this in a month, it means that Yuan Wenshao is very capable in training soldiers.

Could it be that he picked up the treasure by himself?

Yuan Wenshao said: "Back to Ding Guogong, these soldiers are just showy, and their combat effectiveness has not improved much."

If they could be assigned to guard Minshan Fort, naturally the elite would not be able to go anywhere. In addition, the military discipline of Minshan Fort had been lax these years, and these soldiers were not much better than civilian husbands.

Even if Bai Qi Han Xin came, he would not be able to train these people into elites in a month.

The reason why he was able to train the soldiers to look like this was nothing more than adding items such as the military posture of the queue to the usual training.

It looks like a bluff, but the combat effectiveness has not improved much.

Just like some guards of honor in later generations, when they walk in formation, they are more imposing than the army, but their actual combat ability is far worse than that of the army.

Sun Qi didn't quite believe it, and said, "Then I want to take a look, let's go to the school grounds."

After speaking, he drove his horse into the city.
