back to ancient times to be emperor

Chapter 226 Preparations

After a night of tossing, nearly [-] imperial guards did not need to sleep at all.It was almost July, the dawn was relatively early, and half an hour later, the sky began to have some light.Soon it will be daylight.

The roosters in Jinyang City were already crowing one after another, announcing the arrival of a new day.

As for the Forbidden Army camp, it was still immersed in a dull atmosphere. The originally silent Forbidden Army seemed even more weird at this moment.After dawn, the soldiers of the Imperial Army, who had no sleepiness, began to dismantle the tents, pack up the sundries, and prepare to go to the next place.

The death of the same robe gave the imperial army, who thought they were here for military exploits, a sap. After they were in pain, they saw the facts clearly. This time, the suppression of the bandits was definitely not as simple as they imagined.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, you will know the result. If it is so simple, why should you recall the Xiang army to Chang'an and replace the imperial army?This clearly tells you that this time the non-forbidden army can't solve it!
As long as they are the people of Dashun, they have some understanding of the fighting power of the Xiang army.This is not an army at all, but a group of farmers!On weekdays, there would not be more than one-third of the soldiers in the decent Xiang army camps, and most of them went home to plow the fields.Otherwise, he would be plowing the land for the landlord. How could he support a large family with that bitter salary?

He didn't even take a weapon on weekdays. I'm afraid most of the knives and guns in the armory are already rusted.If relying on these Xiang troops, Dashun would not be far from perishing.

Thinking about it from another angle, the soldiers of the Forbidden Army have tasted something.Dare to love this time, the idea is so hard!

Last night, the Military Jurisdiction Department notified the whole army of criticism overnight, and dealt with the dereliction of duty generals as quickly as possible. The efficiency was astounding.The most unlucky one was the captain of Yuanmen. He was not supposed to take turns guarding this day, but the Military Law Department said that he was not strict with his subordinates, and his subordinates neglected their duties. He also had an unshirkable responsibility.Not only was he lost his official position, but he was also pushed down to the end and directly reduced to an ordinary soldier, becoming a glorious "secret sentry" in order to give an explanation to the sentinel of the imperial army who died.

The Yuanmen school lieutenant didn't complain either, instead he accepted it very frankly.In fact, he was not feeling well in his heart. The sentinels who died were all brothers who had gone through difficult training times with him.Just because of a momentary negligence, he ruined his life. Even if he escaped a catastrophe, he wished to die together in his heart, so there is no need to be criticized.

Not to mention being reduced to a secret whistle, even if he was reduced to a cook, he would have recognized it.This is using his own actions to atone for his sins, because he thought from the beginning that the enemy has been eliminated and there is no need to be on guard all the time.It was this carelessness that cost the lives of his brothers, so how could his conscience live with it?This is not a matter of 10,000+ money, but a fresh life!Those brothers were no more than 25 each, and the youngest was only [-]. Many of them were unmarried and just disappeared.How can you call this Yuanmen captain's conscience at peace!
What debt is the hardest to repay?Debt of conscience!
The captain of Yuanmen finally realized what it was like to live rather than die.As a soldier, he will not shed tears, because a man does not shed tears lightly, he will only silently do everything within his power to atone for the mistakes he has made.As everyone knows, he is the saddest person in the entire forbidden army.

No one objected to the handling of the Military Justice Department.After being informed by the whole army, all the imperial guards cheered up, knowing that this time it was not a joke, and a negligence would really kill them.

In the oppressive atmosphere, an auxiliary soldier who was tidying up the camp muttered in a low voice, "It seems that suppressing the bandits this time is not as simple as it seems..."

An auxiliary soldier next to him took up the conversation and said, "Isn't it? I don't know if you watched the battle last night. Those thieves are really vicious. There are so many brothers, so these people are kept..."

"Wu Liulang, did you see it?"

"How dare I rush up, I can hardly see anything at night, a thief who is not easy to be hacked twice, wouldn't it kill me..."

The surrounding auxiliary soldiers all covered their mouths and started laughing.In fact, they are only a hundred steps laughing at fifty steps. Which of them is so heroic?

While talking, a military captain who heard the laughter came over from the cracks in the camp tent, grabbed these auxiliary soldiers, and reprimanded: "Dare to joke here during the war?"

Those auxiliary soldiers pleaded guilty again and again, and the captain of Yuwu finally let them go.At this moment, the gathering drum in front of the tent of the Chinese army suddenly rang, and the captain Yuwu heard the sound of the drum and said quickly: "What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and gather!"

After all, he took the lead and ran.Those auxiliary soldiers didn't dare to be negligent, and ran along with them.After dismantling a lot of tents, the original huge Wengcheng can be regarded as able to stand so many forbidden troops.

After waiting for half a quarter of an hour, Lu Chenhuan, seeing that the gathering of troops was over, sank into his dantian, and said loudly: "I think everyone knows what happened last night. I don't want to say any more here. I just want to say one more thing. In the next battle, if anyone still doesn't do their best, this general's Ma Qian will not be able to recognize him!"

Nearly [-] imperial soldiers and auxiliary soldiers were silent after hearing this sentence.Lu Chenhuan obviously made up his mind that if he wants to fight the next battle well, he will definitely not be as leisurely as before.Fatty Lu, who is serious, is really scary.

"I am not afraid to tell you that the next battle is not a land battle, but a water battle. This is what I want to say. Whoever knows how to fight in the water can come to the tent of the Chinese army before pulling out the army. I will recommend myself to the general, and I will not wait when it is too late. I am not afraid to tell you clearly that I will not fight in water. If no one will, then I will immediately send a flying horse to report to Beijing to let His Majesty change the commander. That's all I was going to say, disband!"

After hearing Lu Chenhuan's words, the soldiers and officers of the Forbidden Army below all had their own thoughts and dispersed slowly.

Lu Chenhuan had just returned to the camp of the Chinese army, and instead of waiting for someone to recommend him, he was told that Liang Zhongwen, governor of Taiyuan Prefecture, was asking to see him outside the barracks.

The military discipline of the imperial army is very strict, not to mention the governor of Taiyuan, even the emperor of Dashun, Lu Chengqi, needs a token to enter the barracks.If there is no token to break through, the sentinel's bow and crossbow will be unrecognizable.

In fact, it was because Lu Chenhuan didn't know the power of Hong Xiang's rifle, otherwise the secret sentry had arranged for a musketeer, how could the thief last night have injured so many people?The sound of the gunpowder gun, which can be heard for several miles with one shot, is best used as a warning.

However, Fatty Lu has always disliked this kind of "high technology", so why would he reuse it?The tragedy of last night was caused by a combination of circumstances, and he was almost robbed under his nose. This slap made Fatty Lu's face burn and hurt.

Hearing Liang Zhongwen's request to see him now, Fatty Lu thought to himself: "This Liang Fu Yin, what medicine did he take wrongly, why did he suddenly come to the Imperial Army barracks? Could it be that his head was caught by the door?"

At this time, civil and military officials were wary of each other, even to the point of not communicating with each other. It was really rare for civil officials to show their kindness so courteously.

Out of safety considerations, Fatty Lu thought about it for about a quarter of an hour before he said to his soldiers: "Go out and tell Governor Liang that the Imperial Army is about to leave, and I won't have time to see him..."
