subvert the late Tang Dynasty

The next day Zhu Wen took Zhu Cun and Zhu Zhen to his own camp. Because Kuang City was too small, many troops were stationed outside the city, and Zhu Wen's 1000 troops were stationed outside the city.

When Zhu Wen arrived at his camp, 1000 people lined up to greet him. Zhu Wen glanced at the 1000 people in various costumes. The team was also in disarray. How could it look like an army?Thinking of the military appearance of my army in modern times, it was a world of difference.

He thought to himself: "Where is this an army? It's clearly a bunch of bandit troops... Uh, it's really a bloody bandit army."

Although Zhu Wen knew that one day he would lead the army by himself, but when this day really came, he didn't know what to do.

Think about what the superiors always said when they inspected the troops in the past, "Hello, comrades, you have worked hard!" Zhu Wen followed suit, and saw him standing there in heavy armor, fully armed, holding his left hand. With the hilt hanging from his waist, he swung his right hand and said, "Hello, brothers, you have worked hard!"

He was tall and handsome, and with his heavy armor, he really looked like a general.

At that time, pawns were nothing more than pawns of others, and few generals would treat ordinary pawns as human beings.When they saw the young general, they greeted everyone as brothers and sisters as soon as they arrived, and most of them developed a good impression of the new general.

Zhu Wen said some symbolic words again, nothing more than saying that he is a newcomer, so he asked his brothers to take care of him, and if there is anything wrong in the future, feel free to speak up, etc.Everyone saw that he didn't have the airs of a general at all, and they immediately liked him greatly.Some people even think that it is worth dying to follow such a person.

Seeing the smiling faces of the 1000 people, Zhu Wen thought to himself: "I, the counterfeit Zhu Wen, don't know how to lead ancient soldiers. I can only use the experience of some modern leaders who are wrong in leading soldiers. According to historical records, Zhu Wen led soldiers He is notoriously strict, and his soldiers and generals are quick to kill if they make a slight mistake. I can’t do it for a trivial matter, and it’s okay to punish me lightly.”

Then he talked about some things to let everyone consciously observe discipline, etc. Zhu Wen said: "We are a rebel army. Most of you used to be poor people, and I am the same as you. But since you have joined the rebel army, you must understand the discipline of our rebel army. We We can't harass the people everywhere like the officers and soldiers, because we are the people ourselves, and we know the sufferings of the people.

"I hope that no matter where we go in the future, we will not arbitrarily plunder the people. We can rob the government's granaries, rob the government's silver treasury, and we can also rob the property of wealthy merchants, but I hope that my army will not kill people at will. They are bad people. If there is no great evil, they should not be killed easily. Also, we should not rob civilian women. Think about it, we all have brothers and sisters. If our brothers are killed and our sisters are robbed and defiled, we What mood will it be? Comparing our hearts to our hearts, can we do that?"

"No! No!" 1000 people shouted in unison.

"The reason why we joined the rebel army was because the government's stupidity made us lose our living environment. We joined the rebel army to save more poor people who could not survive. Let the people all over the world have their own land and have their own land. They have their own food and their own houses, so that they can all live a happy and comfortable life... But this process will be very long. The 300-year foundation of the Tang Empire cannot be wiped out overnight. During this process, many brothers will pay Precious life, brothers, are you afraid?" Zhu Wen asked loudly.

"For the sake of thousands of poor brothers, we are not afraid, not afraid..." shouted Qianqian.

Zhu Cun looked at the impassioned Zhu Wen, and he realized that he really didn't understand this younger brother, and he didn't know how this younger brother could talk in a different way.In his memory, this younger brother was used to being naughty since he was a child, and he was good at sneaking and stealing. Since he came back after going out for three years, everything is different from before.Maybe the younger brother has grown up, he thought.

Zhu Zhen admired this distant cousin even more, "Unexpectedly, he still has this skill, no, I have to learn from him, maybe I can be a general in the future!" Zhu Zhen seemed to be daydreaming Dream thought.

Zhu Wen let Zhu Cun and Zhu Zhen both be generals. Zhu Cun led 100 people to form Zhu Wen's personal army, and the remaining 900 people Zhu Wen let Zhu Zhen lead. For Zhu Zhen, a famous general in the late Tang Dynasty, Zhu Wen Wen is quite confident.

Zhu Zhen was so happy now, she suddenly changed from a small captain leading 900 soldiers to a "general" leading [-] people (in any case, Zhu Zhen regarded herself as a general in her heart), she was so beautiful in her heart, "Unexpectedly, I, Zhu Zhen, would have today!" Zhu Zhen thought to herself.

Zhu Zhen was very happy. Zhu Wen asked him to discuss the plan of military training. Zhu Zhen scratched her head and said embarrassedly: "Training soldiers? How to train? I have no experience in this..."

Zhu Wen said with a smile: "What experience is needed? Your archery skills are good. You can give advice to your captain, and let the captain guide the soldiers. By analogy, you only need to tell your captain what you want. The training is done by them, but you have to supervise their training. The main focus is on training soldiers' group combat ability, as well as endurance, physical strength, and perseverance. Only in this way can they become a truly powerful army. "

Then Zhu Wen explained to him the training methods of the modern army. Zhu Zhen was taken aback for a while, and could not stop nodding.Zhu Zhen frowned and said, "The task of training soldiers is entrusted to me, and now you are not fighting, what are you doing?"

Zhu Wen smiled and said, "My task is to supervise you."

Zhu Zhen chuckled, and said, "Third brother is still smart, you really deserve it."

Zhu Wen said sternly: "Leading soldiers to fight is not a joke. Train soldiers with heart. One more day of training on the battlefield will give them more hope of surviving. Suffering now may make them bleed less. The battlefield is not a child's play. Now that we have become their officers, we must be responsible to them, and we must not make fun of the lives of our brothers. Only by training them to be truly strong can they survive better on the battlefield. On the battlefield, the weak The only ending is death."

Zhu Zhen nodded solemnly. He felt that Zhu Wen seemed to be a different person. His tone of speech was surprisingly heavy, without the humor of the old hippie smile, but a little more solemn and majestic.

"Perhaps this is the temperament of a person in a superior position. Will it be the same when I become a general someday?" Zhu Zhen thought to herself.

Since Zhu Wen was stationed outside the city, he rarely saw Huang Chao and his daughter, but Lin Yan often visited Zhu Wen's camp.

Lin Yan felt amused when he saw the 1000 troops led by Zhu Wen doing all kinds of training all day long. He had never seen such training before!What's the use of running?And what does that one (push-ups) lying on the ground look like?And the one who lay down with his head in his arms and went back and forth endlessly, so tired, what kind of shit is there?

Lin Yan said with a smile: "Brother Zhu, do your soldiers usually train like this?" His tone was somewhat disapproving.

Zhu Wendao: "In the beginning, they were asked to practice in this way first, to enhance their physical fitness and endurance, to practice arm strength and waist strength, etc. Later, they were asked to practice combat capabilities and the coordination between various arms."

Lin Yan said: "Junior brother, now is an extraordinary moment. We have tens of thousands of troops nestled in a small county like Kuangcheng. Is it a long-term plan? I think we will attack a few nearby counties in the next few days, and then attack Baima City in Huazhou. You will lead your troops to attack Changyuan County in three days, so make preparations earlier."

Zhu Wen said in his heart: No way?Let me take the recruits who have just practiced for a few days to fight Changyuan?You don't want me to die, do you?

But I thought so in my heart, but the military order was like a mountain, so I had to bow and say: "Okay, I will prepare in the next two days"

Suddenly Zhu Wen thought of a question, and asked, "Uh, by the way, Senior Brother Lin, did Li Hanzhi lead the team to fight Suanzao County?"

Lin Yan said, "Yes, how do you know?"

Zhu Wen said: "I heard that Li Hanzhi was quite neglected in Suanzao County when he was a monk, please tell him not to poison the people for his own selfishness, it will make us lose our hearts."

Lin Yandao: "Junior Brother Zhai has a kind heart and never forgets the people of Li, so I wrote it down for my brother." He said in his heart: "Zhu Wen, Zhu Wen, let me see how you, a thousand recruits, can defeat Changyuan City!"
