golden scales

The official office of the Donggong guard camp is located in the former residence of a rich family in Ruyang.

When the city of Ruzhou was destroyed, it is said that the head of the family scolded the thief and died, all the children and nephews were slaughtered, and all the wives and daughters were taken away, leaving only this empty house.After Zhu Cihong arrived in Ruyang, he liked that the house was close to the city gate and his temporary residence, so he asked the state officials to requisition it, and erected a monument for the family, which can be regarded as a meritorious deed of human relations.

If Xiao Mo didn't live in the barracks, he would spend the night here. He knew the house like the back of his hand, so he ordered someone to arrange a spacious main room as an office, to receive incoming and outgoing lieutenants, and to arrange marching and garrison matters.Although he is only a fifth-rank bodyguard in the imperial court system, all the civil servants know that he is the real commander of the bodyguard battalion, and they should contact him for anything to ensure that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince lives comfortably in his one-acre three-point land. Safe and happy.

"Colonel, it's time." The orderly reported to the door.

Xiao Mo stood up, holding the belt around his waist, straightened his military uniform, and glanced at the Taixi clock on the tall table.He has paid more and more attention to the time now, and always looks at the clock unconsciously.Sometimes he even wants to equip each of his officers with one, so that the execution time of the general's order can be more detailed.

There are still 5 minutes until noon, and it is eleven o'clock in terms of hours.

The official office has long been filled with heads of departments and bureaus in order, and the stars on their shoulders are from high to low, without any difference.Although in Zhu Cihong's design, there may be a situation where military ranks and military positions are intertwined, that is, there may be the same commander, some are majors, and some are captains.

But now that no one has military merits, this gap has not appeared.It is precisely because of lack of military merit that these top players who stand out on the training ground want to prove themselves more and more with a bright military merit.

Both humans and horses are highly competitive animals.A horse can't stand being overtaken by other horses, and would rather run and die than fight.The same is true for people. Although there may be an abyss ahead, a group of people are running forward, and the person who runs in the front may fall first, but for the sake of the infinite scenery, there are still people who muster their strength to surpass everyone.

As for an army with these two as its backbone, one can imagine how unwilling it would be to lag behind.

The force-feeding by the trainer, and the slogans that you must learn first when you first learn to read characters—"Being a soldier means going to the battlefield", "Beheading the general and killing the enemy, and confiding his wife and son"... Such consciousness is subtle day and night, The Donggong guard camp has long been filled with the belief in winning.

"Chief Commander Qian Xiao!" The orderly registered loudly: "Get up! Salute!"

"See command!" Everyone stood up and saluted.

Commander Wei is at the third rank, while Xiao Mo is actually only at the fifth rank, but that doesn't prevent him from enjoying this favor.Under the attention of everyone, he walked towards the chief tiger's seat-a sheepskin had already been laid on it.Xiao Mo had a vague feeling that the Eastern Palace system seemed to be in harmony with the imperial court system. For example, the prince did not have a commander-in-chief and did not send a general with a seal, but instead had an untouchable commander, which seemed to have other meanings.

—but it doesn't matter.

Xiao Mo calmed down and pumped up his dantian: "You are all loyal and brave people, so I won't talk nonsense about boosting morale. If the morale of any party is not high and you want to avoid war, you might as well say it now. This general can send him to guard the food and grass." Xiao Mo said, his sharp eyes swept over the faces of the school captains, and seeing the determination and expectation on each face, he continued: "If you don't say it now, After the military order is issued, you have to go through fire and water! Who dares to frown, the general will know him, but the military law will not know him!"

"Willing to die!" Everyone shouted in unison.

Xiao Mo relaxed a little, and spread out his memo pad, which contained the assignment of tasks and the division of defense zones for each department.These contents have been copied clearly by the military scribes in accordance with the format of the military order. As long as they are read here, they will be issued to the ministers, and then the receipt will be returned, which can be regarded as the proof of the military order.In Xiao Mo's own small book, there are references to the results of the training subjects of each department, and the deep impression on people on weekdays, so as to ensure that he uses good steel for various blades.

——As long as you arrange the right people in the right place, you are already standing in an immortal place.

Xiao Mo remembered what the prince had said, checked the military order herb in his hand for the last time, and blurted out a series of military orders, and everyone who was summoned restrained himself and stood up happily to accept the order.

Wang Mafu had already put the topography of this area in his mind, and every time Xiao Mo reported a vital point of the garrison, he could connect it in his mind.Seeing that the vital points in the mountains were assigned to the divisions with many miners; then the important tasks of city defense were also assigned; in the end, the two divisions who had always been at the top in comprehensive evaluation became Xiao Mo's personal guards, and it was probably this battle the main attacker...

But there is no mission for Wang Mafu.

He was even kicked out of the department by Xiao Mo alone, but he didn't receive the task for a long time.

"Wang Mafu!" Xiao Mo snapped.

"Here!" Wang Mafu seemed to have a spring under his buttocks, and it bounced with a thud.

"You act guerrilla with the military guards." Xiao Mo finally dispatched the task.

Wang Mafu was stunned for a moment, and immediately noticed that Commander Xiao Mo's gaze sharpened, and only then did he realize that the flow of ordering and receiving orders was broken by him.He quickly stood up and said: "I am humble and obey the order!"

Xiao Mo glanced at him again, with a hint of warning, and then let him go, saying: "Everyone knows that military law is ruthless, if anyone dares to ignore military law, this general will not follow personal relationships!"

"I hope that I will be smashed to pieces and never let down the emperor's grace!" Everyone responded in unison.

They lived at the bottom of the society back then, brushed shoulders with death day and night, and came eagerly when they heard that they were recruiting soldiers, and they no longer cared about life and death.At the beginning, some people wanted to eat and drink and run away, but the military camp is a melting pot. Now that they are here, how can it be so easy to leave?What's more, the prince provided them with good food and drink, and all kinds of "torture" training sharpened them. After three months, they have been reborn.

At least when it comes to chanting slogans, it is simply that blue is better than blue. Even those training officers who were born in the inner palace have to admit that the back waves of the Yangtze River pushed the front waves, and the front waves died on the beach.

Everyone came out of the office, and the military clerks of the Right Army Department outside had come to find someone to issue military orders.Wang Mafu soon got his own card, and went to the head of the Guard Bureau to confirm it, and found that the content of the military order was indeed different.The Guards Bureau acted with the main formation and fought hard to kill the enemy, but my piece was "guerrilla action with the Guards", and didn't even kill the enemy.

Wang Mafu tried his best to conceal his disappointment, and suddenly saw Xiao Tugeng with a more bitter expression, he stepped forward and said, "Brother Xiao, what is your mission?" At the military meeting just now, Wang Mafu was focused on waiting for him Xiao Tugeng completely ignored the task.

Seeing his former "roommate" approaching, Xiao Tugeng's face became more and more ugly, he tightly grasped his military order, and said simply and clearly: "Defend the city."

Xiao Mo put all the main force in the field, and even asked the auxiliary soldiers of the left army to build two extra earthen fortresses to observe the enemy's situation.The focus of the battle is to fight in the wild, I am afraid that the defenders will not see the bandits at all!Xiao Tugeng felt depressed and felt a deep sense of loss in his heart.

——This is almost the treatment of the Zuo Military Department!

There is no general manager in the left army, and now he is thrown into the leadership of Master Wu Sheng, who stays behind on the grain road, builds fortifications with the auxiliary soldiers, and repairs the city wall... It really is a motherless child like a grass.The divisions and bureaus of the Zuo Military Department also have self-knowledge, and the few leaders can't speak loudly, but Xiao Tugeng is not the Zuo Military Department!

——We are the Firearms Bureau of the Central Military Department!The only bureau that is not named after a number!

Xiao Tugeng couldn't restrain the gap in his heart: We are biological!

"Which city is guarding?" Wang Mafu asked thoroughly.

"Ruyang! Ruzhou! Baisha!" Xiao Tugeng almost gritted his teeth and squeezed out the words, never wanting to talk to Wang Mafu again.He originally had a good impression of this cowardly reed stick who was almost destined to die, but now he found that this guy became more and more hateful, and people wanted to beat him when they saw him.

"Guard the three important places! Brother Xiao is indeed favored by the crown prince." Wang Mafu said out of time.

Xiao Tugeng turned around and left, cursing in his heart: Use a fur ball again!There are so few people in the bureau, what firepower is there in three divisions!The high-power intensive shooting that the prince has always emphasized will destroy the enemy in pieces!In Xiao Mo's hands, dare to divide the troops!

For a while, Xiao Tugeng suddenly realized that Xiao Mo was a scumbag who didn't know much about it, and remembering that he had even worshiped him, it was as disgusting as swallowing a fly alive.He squeezed out a mouthful of phlegm and spat heavily on the tree beside him. (To be continued.)
