Feng Zhou rode on the "Treading Swallow" horse and followed behind the two of them, looking at ease.
Seeing him like this, Yu Jie couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart.
He and his general Gao Xiang are both loyal to their lord Liu Bei, so they naturally hope that his legitimate son can take over his armor as soon as possible and lead everyone forward with swords. After all, this is the "foundation of the country".
Everyone hopes that Mr. Zen can be like his father, but he is too young now.
I heard that Huo Qubing was already seventeen or eighteen years old when he first went into battle.
The current Master Zen is only twelve years old.
A twelve-year-old child, even if he becomes the emperor, cannot suppress the civil servants and generals, let alone serve in the army?
Army sergeants and soldiers, who have spent their entire lives in battles, are all rebellious and arrogant soldiers. When facing the general who is running the army rigorously, they all behave well. But once they face new recruits or young boys, they will behave in a good manner.
How could it be possible to obey?
"My lord, I'm afraid that haste makes waste in this arrangement."
Yu Jie sighed secretly in his heart.
And Guo Yuan even sneered secretly.
"Master Zen, don't feel good about yourself. If you don't have real skills, even if you are the lord's legitimate son, those soldiers may not listen to you."
At this time, the tribe's camp where Feng Zhou was going was setting up camp in a small valley, surrounded by hundreds of feet high peaks.
It's quite a distance from General Gao Xiang's Chinese army camp.
You must know that the Jinniu Road stretches far and wide and is surrounded by mountains. Therefore, each camp is built based on favorable terrain and is cleverly connected to the Chinese army's camp and echoes each other. The enemy cannot break it except by attacking by force
.
Qutun, where Feng Zhou was located, belonged to the elite of Gao Xiang's army. Although Guo Yuan, the uncle, had only two hundred soldiers, the logistics department built around them, including soldiers and civilians, totaled four to five hundred people.
At this time, in the open space of the military camp, the soldiers of the military camp where Feng Zhou was located were gathering together, waiting for the arrival of the new camp commander.
"Since he is Master Zen, he can directly serve as the captain of the school. Why should he be a village chief? It does not match his status!" said a tall and stern young man.
"If he serves as a school lieutenant, military affairs will naturally be handled by the military commander, and I'm afraid he won't learn anything." Another young man with thick eyebrows said.
"Yes, I heard that those young men from aristocratic families join the army and serve as at least a school captain, commander of other departments, etc., starting from the position of village commander. I'm afraid it has never happened in ancient times." Someone shouted.
"You are so rare and strange, haven't you heard? My lord's legitimate son, Master Chan is only twelve years old this year. How can he hold the position of school captain? I'm afraid there will be trouble."
"Only twelve?"
This was the first time for everyone to hear this news, and many of the warriors who were idle in a daze jumped up in shock.
But if you think about it, it's almost the same.
Back then, Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong faced Cao Cao's thousands of troops and fought against Changbanpo with Master Chan in his arms, killing one of them seven in and seven out. At that time, Master Chan was only one or two years old.
Ten years have passed now, Mr. Zen is twelve years old, and it is indeed right.
However, joining the army at the age of twelve is really unbelievable.
"I heard that Sun Bofu from Jiangdong was seventeen years old when he went to war with his father, and the champion Hou Huo Qubing was only eighteen years old when he went to fight against the Xiongnu. These are extremely young people, but Young Master Chan is only twelve years old?
Are you here to be the head of the village? Could it be that you are here to have fun?" the cold young man said.
"Leng Feng, be careful what you say. Who should be the commander of the camp and who should not be the commander of the camp? That is the consideration of the lord and the generals. We just obey the orders."
A man standing at the front said in a deep voice.
His body stood like a javelin, and he had not moved at all from morning to now. The other soldiers were all swaying around, sitting or standing, but he was the only one with a straight military posture, as if he was setting a benchmark.
"Yes, Captain!"
After hearing this, everyone stood up solemnly and answered in unison.
After they finished speaking, they all looked at the man with awe and respect.
Wu Tong, their former commander and current captain.
The position of Captain is under Du Bo, and he can be regarded as Du Bo's deputy. Because Feng Zhou is coming to serve as the commander of the camp, he is promoted to Captain. After Feng Zhou becomes familiar with and masters the army, Wu Tong will be promoted to Captain.
Bo, take charge of a song.
He is a born soldier.
Although he was young and joined the army late, he participated in several battles and gained considerable military exploits, but he gave all the rewards he received to his soldiers.
Some people say that if everything goes smoothly, with Wu Tong's qualifications, he will be promoted to the middle level of Liu Bei's army within two or three years.
It can be said that in this drama, his prestige is as high as that of Du Bo Guo Yuan.
Everyone saw that the captain didn't say much and stood blankly for a moment. Many people started discussing again.
"You think that after Mr. Zen arrives, should we give him a blow?" Leng Feng, a stern young man, said with a malicious smile.
"Lengfeng, didn't Lieutenant Wu say that just now, why do you still dare to make such noise?" The thick-browed young man frowned.
"Who said we were noisy? We support him with all our hands when he becomes the village chief. But since he is the village chief, he must have some ability to convince the crowd. He should show off his skills." Leng Feng chuckled.
"If he doesn't have the ability, then let him continue to be the commander of the camp. Just don't interfere in our training. After the war, you can just go back to the governor's mansion and continue your career as a son-in-law."
"Lengfeng said this makes sense." The warriors around him nodded.
"Then how can we tell that he is capable? Competing with spears? Competing with archery. Comparing with riding horses and galloping? I mean Lengfeng? Mr. Zen's master is General Zilong. He will beat you ten times." Someone laughed.
"Hey, when the two armies are fighting, the competition is who is in better health, who can run, who can shoot faster, who can grit his teeth and persist to the end. In the final analysis, it is physical strength." Leng Feng smiled evilly and revealed his inner thoughts, "
To put it simply, it’s a military fight. If he can’t defeat even one of us, it would be a bit unreasonable.”
"You are too bad. Mr. Zen is only twelve years old. He has been studying the art of war since elementary school. How can I fight with your bare hands? Why don't you compete with others in memorizing the art of war?" The thick eyebrows revealed his bad intentions.
"Hey, you don't know this, right?" Leng Feng said: "If he were to be a captain, Sima, of course he would have to learn how to command troops and how to fight. But if he came to be a commander, of course he would have to learn how to fight."
"good!"
"That makes sense."
Everyone nodded.
…
At this time, the three horses had approached the camp.
"Captain Liu, we are almost there. That's the small valley in front of us."
Yu Jie said loudly on the horse.
"Xu..."
Feng Zhou stopped the reins.
"Captain Liu."
Guo Yuan and Yu Jie were startled and quickly stopped their horses.
"Is it possible that he is getting timid as we approach the camp?" Guo Yuan thought in his mind.
"That watchtower is about ten feet high, right?"
Feng Zhou pointed to the watchtower at the entrance of the military camp and asked.
"Yes, that watchtower is twelve feet high." Guo Yuan said hurriedly.
Twelve feet, almost thirty-six meters, already as high as a ten-story building.
The ancients were able to use wooden structures to build such high-end equipment, which is indeed a sign of their infinite wisdom.
Feng Zhou nodded, admiring in his heart.
Yu Jie and Guo Yuan looked at each other, not knowing why.
"Captain Liu, we are about to enter the military camp. I have to say hello to Commander Liu in advance." Yu Jie thought about it, glanced at Guo Yuan, and decided to speak out: "The tough soldiers in the army have always been arrogant.
, but they are all strong soldiers, so sometimes the commander still has to take care of them."
"Of course you can ignore it, but in the subsequent training process, some people may not listen to discipline."
"I understand that in the military, force has always been king, and the strong are respected." Feng Zhou nodded calmly.
Compared with the tortuous officialdom, the rules in the army are closer to Fengzhou. Whoever has the biggest fist, who has the ability, and whoever has the merit. Everyone will obey him, rather than paying attention to his origin or background.
In this era when aristocratic families are in power, it is probably only the grassroots level of the military camp, and they have no influence.
Of course, I don't bother to influence it.
Seeing Feng Zhou's indifferent expression, Yu Jie couldn't help but feel a little worried.
'If he goes to the army like this, he will suffer a big loss.'
It's a pity that he is just a boss in Yu Jie, he can only make side remarks and can't really speak.
Guo Yuan, who was sitting next to him, had already begun to sneer in his heart, ready to see Feng Zhou's joke.
"Captain Liu, let's go in," Yu Jie said.
"No need to go to such trouble." Feng Zhou suddenly smiled and said to Guo Yuan: "Uncle Guo, please let all the brothers in my village gather under this watchtower."
After saying this, he suddenly dismounted from his horse and took a few steps to the foot of the watchtower next to the military camp. He jumped up, like a big bird. He clicked halfway and jumped onto the watchtower.
"What?" When Yu Jie and Guo Yuan saw this scene, they were stunned and looked incredulous.
