Chapter 36 West Garden
Chen Mo didn't expect that the first thing he did when he entered the military camp to take the teaching test was to stand at the stand.
On the Xiyuan campus, a group of recruits who had not yet had time to get to know each other stood in a stance under the scorching sun. They stood there all morning.
Since Chen Mo learned zhanzhuang at the age of nine, he has not done any zhanzhuang homework every day. Even if he later started to practice writing and literacy with Zang Hong, he could not do zhanzhuang for an hour every day. It only took a whole morning to stand, and judging from Gao Shun's appearance
, and had no intention of stopping. Even Chen Mo felt his legs starting to tremble.
"Don't worry, everyone, this stance will not affect your stay, but what you want to do is to be a lieutenant general in the army. If you don't have excellent skills, who will obey you?" Gao Shun's tiger eyes kept scanning the crowd.
, in one morning, more than 200 of the 300 people could no longer hold on, and the rest just gritted their teeth and struggled to hold on. What he didn't expect was that Chen Mo, who finally came with Lu Zhi's name card, actually persisted.
So far, it seems that there is still some energy left.
"Don't tell me about your family backgrounds. The army only recognizes military regulations. Military orders are like mountains, that's it!" Gao Shunyou walked in the military formation, stopped beside Chen Mo, then turned around and left, continuing:
"No matter how noble you are, but since we are in this camp, we are our strong soldiers. Standing in a stance may seem simple, but it is a test of perseverance, courage, and physical strength. We are going to the battlefield. If there is no one else, we will go to the battlefield."
How can you defend the country for my great Han Dynasty and kill the enemy thieves in front of the battle line?"
"I hope you can understand that joining the army is not a child's play. From the moment you enter the camp, you should be prepared to die on the battlefield!" Gao Shun said this, frowning and looking around at those who had given up their stance and were watching the show.
People who even pointed and commented: "Although this assessment will not affect your decision to stay, it is good that you can persevere until now. At least you are a hundred times better than those who are proud of giving up and don't even have the slightest sense of shame."
The voices around him suddenly became quieter, and many eyes focused on Gao Shun, somewhat dissatisfied. After all, the person who came to Xiyuan this time was a selected general. Who doesn't know about his family background?
Gao Shun glanced over, not too sharp, but it made people inexplicably panicked.
"The weak mock the strong?" A rare smile appeared on Gao Shun's face, but this smile was a bit embarrassing to those onlookers. He said nothing, but the disdain hurt people's self-esteem.
"Stop standing still! Everyone rest where they are!" Gao Shun waved his hand, stood in place, looked at the ten people who were still insisting and said: "We will eat later. Those who persist will receive an extra piece of meat.
"
"General, you just said that this matter will not affect whether you go or stay!" A man became anxious and stood up and said loudly.
"But I didn't say it wouldn't affect the preferential treatment." Gao Shun glanced at the man and said: "In addition, military orders are respected in the army. Next time you want to speak, you must ask for instructions first, otherwise you will be punished by military law!"
"you……"
"Um?"
"Here!" The man was startled when Gao Shun glared at him, and he quickly bowed in response!
"Eat!" Gao Shun looked at the carriage being pushed from a distance. The aroma filled the air from the rice bucket. A group of people had been standing there all morning. They were already hungry and their limbs were weak. When they saw the food being delivered, a group of people stood there all morning.
A man stood up with excitement on his face, howling and rushing towards him.
"Presumptuous!" Upon seeing this, Gao Shun raised his thick eyebrows and shouted loudly. Dozens of soldiers immediately rushed up to protect him around the rice bucket, watching these people with eager eyes.
Chen Mo ran the fastest and had already taken out a wooden bowl. Just as she was about to ladle out the soup, a cold knife was placed on her neck, causing her movements to freeze.
"You are soldiers, not bandits. There are military etiquette in the army." Gao Shun came to Chen Mo, took the wooden bowl from his hand, handed it to the cook on the cart, scooped out a bowl of broth, and handed it to him.
The man behind Chen Mo looked at Chen Mo and said: "There is also etiquette for eating. Today, the last person eats first. In addition, there is a queue. You can run like this. It seems you still have enough energy. Then these dozen people
You will be the last one to eat."
"Here!" Chen Mo is a man who has experienced the dream battlefield and been killed hundreds of times in various ways. Most of them were hacked to death by his own generals. He knows the iron law of the army that military orders are like mountains.
At that moment, he almost instinctively retracted his hand, raised his chest, and shouted loudly with great energy.
"Not bad." Seeing Chen Mo's appearance, Gao Shun nodded with satisfaction, pointed back and said: "Go to the back and line up!"
"Here!" Chen Mo agreed, his eyes flashed over the rice bucket, turned around and walked quickly behind a dozen people. Under the envious eyes of others, the dozen or so people who persisted until the end received a bowl of broth one by one.
A bowl of corn rice and a piece of dog meat.
Chen Mo found a place in the shade of a tree, sat down and took a bite of the meat. Although he also liked dogs, this dog meat was well cooked and delicious.
"Young man, you are so gentle, why do you eat so boldly?" A man in his early twenties sat next to Chen Mo with a bowl in his hand, and said in surprise as he watched Chen Mo gobble it up regardless of his image.
"Outside, of course, I have to eat more delicately, otherwise those girls will say I'm vulgar, but in this military camp, who am I pretending to look like? Besides, we will definitely fight in the future when we join the army, so meticulous
You chew slowly, if the enemy comes to attack, should I eat or not?" Chen Mo chuckled, and he used swear words with his mouth, which was completely different from when he interacted with Cao Cao and others.
"It's rare." The man's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he looked at Chen Mo and said, "You are a young man who knows a lot. It seems that you have lived a hard life."
"My name is Chen Mo. I'm from Xuzhou. My brother is also very powerful." Chen Mo has a very good memory. This is the person who persisted to the end just like him.
"My name is Cui Geng." The man smiled.
"Cui family of Qinghe?" Chen Mo looked at Cui Geng in surprise. He didn't know until he entered the West Garden that the court was mainly selecting generals for the new army. He came here with some background, but he didn't expect Cui family of Qinghe.
Someone will also be sent.
"I can't reach that high." Hearing this, Cui Geng shook his head and sighed: "Nanyang people have nothing to do with the Cui family."
"Nanyang is not bad. The land of Longxing, when Guangwu Zhongxing was established, wasn't it in Nanyang? I heard that there are outstanding people there. If there is a chance in the future, I must go and see it." Chen Mo was not disappointed and said casually.
"It was indeed prosperous in the past, but since the Yellow Turban rebellion, Nanyang today is not as prosperous as it used to be. I was able to enter the West Garden this time and almost lost all my family wealth." Cui Geng shook his head and sighed. During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Nanyang was so prosperous.
It is one of the places where Yellow Turban thieves are most rampant. Even though three years have passed since the Yellow Turban chaos broke out, it has not recovered much vitality.
"After the great chaos, there must be great governance, and I think Brother Cui is also a capable person. If he enters Xiyuan this time, he will definitely be selected as a general and shine on the family lintel."
