(After finishing my medicine, I got up to type and saw a book review. Here is a reply: 1. I have only deleted 21 book reviews and one was a personal attack that contained the word "slutty" and was deliberately provocative; 2. I deleted the post if you questioned it.
That one was the first comment I saw since I started writing the book. I wanted to reply to that one but I didn’t have enough points, so I never deleted it or touched it. 3. I will reply in the book review after I reach 5oo points, which is fair and reasonable.

"Have you heard of my name?" Suo snorted heavily, clasped his fists and said, "Mr. Xiao, I really admire your character, but we are the officers and soldiers of Daming Mansion's left-behind department, not your helpers, nor
You are not a servant of the escort agency. I only want to ask you: What will I do when I get Master Xiao? Will I be a man of honor who can build a career? Or will I just be a soldier who guards the gate for you? "
Xiao Tang heard this and understood the reason for Suo's anger. Except for several wars with Xixia, especially after the signing of the Chanyuan Alliance, the Song Dynasty, which basically maintained a huge army, had basically no war. Except for the Western Army of the Song Dynasty,
The other imperial armies were of little use in suppressing bandits among the people. In addition, most of the recruits were thieves and prisoners to serve as soldiers. The disaster caused the refugees and they were underestimated in the eyes of the people. Therefore, it was common for training in various places to be neglected and military discipline to be loose.
It must be that the hero of the left-behind department in Daming Mansion has no use for this rope, or he was ordered by the prison officer to go here to fill the scene, and was sent by the chief to guard the access control, making the big ax in his hand unprofitable.
, as time passed, my mood became impatient.
However, the word "urgent" in this urgent request is really not wrong. Xiao Tang is now his immediate boss, and he has already asked so urgently. It is conceivable that this request does not please his boss. It is no wonder that with his
He was so capable that when he appeared in Water Margin, he was just a legitimate soldier.
It is said that Yang Zhi, the green-faced beast in Water Margin, was exiled to the left-behind department of Daming Prefecture. He immediately came into Liang Shijie's eyes and wanted to take a heavy responsibility. When he wanted to take away the identity of Suo's younger brother Zhou Jin and give it to Yang Zhi, Suo's hair exploded on the spot and came out.
He was about to compete with Yang Zhi, and the two fought brilliantly for more than 50 times. Liang Shijie was dumbfounded, and then he realized that he had such a tiger general under his command.
Suo's career in the army was dusty, and his talent was not appreciated. Although he didn't know how to cater to his superiors, his horse fighting skills ranked among the Eight Hussars of Liangshan. I'm afraid Xiao Tang couldn't compare to him now. Xiao Tang couldn't.
He stopped talking and said: "Are you eager to make a name for yourself and earn some fame? In my opinion, this is just a dream on your part, right?"
"What!!??" With a pinch of salt in his temper, he became furious when he heard Xiao Tang's sarcasm: "You look down on my ability? Okay, okay, come on! Let's see how we do it!!"
Zhou Jin, the follower next to He Suo, saw him and hurriedly went up to comfort Suo. Wang Ding, the deputy commander of the Ma Army, also quickly said to Xiao Tang: "Haha, Commander Xiao, this Suo has such a temper. Don't take it personally."
go......"
"Of course I've heard about the ability of vanguards to be extravagant..." Xiao Tangzheng was talking, and suddenly pointed at Suo and shouted: "But you think you can rely on one person, one horse, and one big axe?"
Will it bring peace to the world and help you become a marquis and a general!? Are you eager to make achievements? Okay, go and wipe out the bandits in hb's mountain strongholds? Why? Just because the dozens of cavalry behind you are not like that
Soldiers, don’t bandits look like bandits?”
"Me!..." Suo was so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas passed into nirvana. Not only was he extremely angry, he was just a bannerman at the moment. How was the training of his cavalry army, what did it have to do with him? How could he care about it? ?
"What am I?" Xiao Tang then scolded: "The right way is to raise an army for a thousand days and use it for a while. Look at the virtues of you guys. What kind of soldiers have you raised? How useful can they be!? You still have the face to face me. Looking for a chance to fight?"
Not only Suo, but all the lazy horse soldiers also stood up and glared at Xiao Tang with an angry look on their faces.
"You fart!!!" Suo Geng was so angry that he couldn't speak any more and scolded sternly: "I, Suo, a good man, how can I accept being insulted by you!? It seems that you are just trying to cater to the left-behind husband Ma Junjun. Give me the job! Do you think I am not useful? If it were not for the left-behind department, the military and political affairs department would be a mess. They would only teach good men like us who are determined to serve the country to do trivial things like looking after homes and nursing homes. You and I are asking for it. You can’t train good soldiers!?”
"Okay!" Seeing that General Suo Ruo was getting angry, Xiao Tang said, "Don't say that I won't give you a chance. You Suoruo is really a good man who spits on you and nails him every time. Don't forget what you said today!"
After speaking, Xiao Tang said to Wang Ding: "How do this horse army usually train, and who supervises it?"
Wang Ding suddenly returned: "According to the order of the left-behind Prime Minister Jun, the future training and supervision will be decided by the Xiao Jun envoy, except for the orders of the left-behind commander."
Xiao Tang nodded and said to Suo: "In that case, I will order you to be the commander of our army. You will be responsible for the daily military training. Tomorrow you will set off to gather at the Xiao family and meet with me in the town." Xiangyong and all my friends are accompanying me to practice together!"
Suo, who had an argument with Xiao Tang and was promoted to a military rank, didn't have time to wonder. After hearing the second half of Xiao Tang's sentence, Suo became anxious again: "What?! After all, we are also the imperial guards of the Daming Prefecture's left-behind department, how can we fight with the capital?" Home-protecting soldiers, and your nursing home assistants are training together!?"
Xiao Tang curled up his lips and said: "What, are you afraid? Are you afraid that the Imperial Guards of the Remaining Department of the Daming Palace are not as brave as me, who is brave in the towns and villages, and my helpers in the nursing home are more heroic?"
"I'm afraid of you!?" Suo said angrily, "Okay! I'll tell you to see what I'm capable of!"
"Brother Suo! That Xiao Tang bullied us so much!" When Suo and other Ma Jun drove away the Xiao family gathering, Zhou Jin, the follower beside Suo, said angrily: "It's true that he is favored by the left-behind husband, but he is such a coward. You looked down upon our officers and soldiers!"
"It's not like that..." Wang Ding, the deputy commander of the horse army, drove his horse to Suo. He had missed three times in the Water Margin, but now Suo's superiors sighed: "If Xiao Tang really Why bother to go to such trouble if you want to regulate you and me? As the saying goes, magistrate D is better than being in charge now. Since you are acting under him, brother Suo, you need to restrain your temper."
And Suo slowly urged the horse forward without saying a word. This vanguard's temper came and went quickly. Although he was so aroused by Xiao Tang's words that he wished he could rush up and fight with him, he remained calm. After I came down and thought about it carefully, I realized that although what Xiao Tang said was unpleasant, it was also true that the Daming Mansion Imperial Guards had neglected their training and were being used for private purposes even by others.
In addition, Xiao Tang allowed him to become the commander of the army without saying a word, and he became the military envoy in this horse army, the third most important rank outside the deputy soldier and horse envoy. Wasn't this just trying to inspire me to exert all my strength? How to train this soldier well?
Kesuo was still feeling angry in his heart, saying that no matter what, he could not lose face in front of Xiao Tang. Even the other soldiers of the horse army were the same. The clay figures were still earthy, not to mention the soldiers who were eating the imperial food. The imperial army of the Song Dynasty is strong? At this time, everyone is holding back their strength, thinking that Xiao Tang looks down on us so much, what are the brave men in your market town so great?
Waiting for Ma Jun to arrive at the school grounds where Xiaojiaji teaches Xiangyong, one person was immediately shocked by the sight in front of him:
I saw more than 300 Xiangyong in a team of 11 people. The two people in the front were holding swords across their waists, one holding a long card and the other holding a rattan card; the two people behind them were holding bamboo poles about one foot long. A spear head was placed on the top, and bright daggers were tied to the branches. Two bamboo poles long enough to sweep, so that no one else could get close. Then there were four spearmen and two palladium hands. More than thirty pairs of warriors advanced and retreated in an orderly manner, and their unison shouts were even more powerful.
With Xiao Yi and Xue Yong diligently teaching these local warriors, Xiao Tang also trained them according to the mandarin duck formation of the famous anti-Japanese general Qi Jiguang in his memory. Although it is difficult to achieve the Qi family's illustrious performance by following the gourd and painting the gourd, but Tengpai, Langzhen, The reasonable combination of long guns and palladium can also effectively block the enemy while minimizing one's own casualties.
But seeing the yellow sand flying and the slogans of the local warriors loud and clear, Suo, Wang Ding, Zhou Jin and others couldn't help but secretly wonder, thinking that not to mention the Xiangjun Xiangyong, they were the imperial guards of Daming Prefecture's left-behind department, and they could only be called elites. Li Cheng, Supervisor of the Army and Horses, heard about the few battalions of men and horses under his command. How could he have imagined that in such a market town, it was just a group of rural soldiers training with such momentum?
When a group of cavalry troops were surprised, they suddenly heard the sound of hooves. Xiao Tang came to the school grounds with eighteen cavalrymen. The eighteen cavalrymen were all wearing black thin felt cloaks and black leather armor. Each one looked like a horse. Tigers and horses, like dragons, rushed into the school grounds and each took off the carved bows from their backs, pulled the strings and nocked arrows, and all shot at the haystack target in the school grounds. Accompanied by the sound of the wind, a round of arrows rained down. Have a head start.
Since Xiao Tang obtained the military records of Brother Yelu Xiu and Yelu Xiezhen, he was determined to train his own cavalry team. He selected eighteen young men from the Xiao family, equipped them with good horses, bows and armor, and established such a cavalry team. The branch is a private armed force mainly engaged in riding and shooting.
When Shi Xiu was going about business, there would be bandits on the border between Song and Liao from time to time pretending to be officers and soldiers "grabbing the grass valley" to make huge profits. These eighteen horsemen had gone through several small-scale conflicts and had become proficient in horseback riding skills. Compared with those in the northern border, The nomadic elite cavalry on horseback may be a little lacking, but in the Song Dynasty, the skill of riding and shooting is not to be underestimated.
While Xiao Tang was galloping, he pulled out an arrow cluster with a crescent shovel-shaped blade from the quiver on his back, and put it on the bowstring of Lang Jiujun's bow. Although his archery skills had not yet reached the level of being able to pierce a poplar with a hundred steps, it was better than With extraordinary arm strength, he used a hard bow to shoot an arrow with a sudden sound of wind, and with a crisp crackling sound, he smashed an arrow target forty or fifty steps away.
Suo saw it in his eyes. Although he didn't say anything, he secretly praised him in his heart. He thought that although Xiao Tang had done something righteous, he was just a rich young man who was not familiar with military affairs. His methods didn't seem to be just to please Liang Shijie, the left-behind husband. Only then can you ride on his head.
Xiao Tang rode his horse and rushed to Suo and said energetically: "How about Suo Juntou?"
"The military envoy does have some skills in training troops." Suo nodded, and then said proudly: "But give me some time, and the soldiers I train may not be as good as yours!"
