~~~~~~

The north wind blew past, making the clothes on his body rustle, causing a burst of snow foam in the distance.

Five miles north of Anzhou City, on the edge of an old forest on the west bank of the Daning River, dozens of Ming soldiers wearing bright red mandarin duck jackets were guarding three to four hundred ragged Korean refugees, cutting down trees.

Surrounding trees.

In the middle, a general flag officer with a stout figure, a hideous scar extending from his chin to his neck, was shouting in Yi dialect at the top of his voice: "Brothers from North Korea, listen up! Do your best today.

Today, our general is showing mercy and has a fat pig slaughtered. In the evening, everyone will have hot broth to drink! If he does a good job, everyone can get another big steamed bun.

A bowl of porridge. But I’ve said ugly things before. Who dares to be lazy? Don’t blame me for not having eyes on the whip in my hand!”

As he spoke, he whipped the tendon whip in the air, making a crackling sound.

These North Korean refugees immediately began to chop down branches as if they had been given a shot of blood.

At this time, a thin Ming Army Commander-in-Chief, carrying a large bowl of hot tea, quickly came to the ferocious Commander-in-Chief, and said with a flattering smile: "Master Cui, this is

It's so cold. Brothers, please take a few sips of the hot water you just boiled and the tea leaves I specially saved to warm yourself up."

If anyone else saw this scene, their eyes would probably fall to the ground.

In the highly hierarchical battle formation of the Ming Army, it is simply unimaginable that the main officer, who is known as the commander-in-chief, wants to please a commander-in-chief.

But at this time, the Ming army officers and soldiers around them had already become accustomed to it.

At this time, it was already past noon, and all the work that needed to be handled was almost completed. Except for a few soldiers on duty, the rest of the people came closer to the ferocious flag officer.

The ferocious flag officer was not polite. He took the tea bowl, blew it a few times, carefully took a few sips, and soon drank most of the big bowl of tea in one breath.

After drinking, he put the bowl aside, smiled and handed over to the chief officer: "Mr. Liu, thank you very much."

The commander-in-chief Liu Ye and Liu Ziqiang hurriedly smiled and said: "Ahem! Master Cui, where are your words? Our brothers, who is following whom?"

Cui Ye, the ferocious commander-in-chief, smiled without being polite and carefully took out an exquisite box from the cloth bag on his waist.

The eyes of everyone around him suddenly lit up.

Even General Manager Liu Ziqiang's eyes immediately widened a lot, he chuckled and stared at the box in Master Cui's hand.

Master Cui smiled: "Master Liu, brothers, I am not stingy, Lao Cui! Brothers, watch out, I only have three pills in this box now. Come on, Master Liu, give you one. Me and I

One for several brothers, and the last one for all the brothers!"

"Master Cui is so powerful!"

"Master Cui, this, this is our Li Shuai's favorite cigar, right? Hehehe, I didn't expect that I, Old Wang, would also enjoy this treasure!"

"Master Cui..."

Everyone was overjoyed and complimented him endlessly.

Mr. Cui smiled calmly and responded with his hands. Obviously, he was already used to this kind of scene.

Soon, the scent of cigar tobacco began to spread among these Ming soldiers.

A younger Ming army soldier boldly smiled and said: "Master Cui, tell us. What is Nanyang like? Are those white-haired ghosts really the same as monkeys?"

"Yes! Mr. Cui, tell us about the war! What are these dog Tatars capable of?"

Looking at the excited brothers, Master Cui first instinctively scanned the surrounding area to make sure that nothing was abnormal. Then he sat on a wooden stake next to him and said with a smile: "Nanyang? This is what Nanyang looks like, except

There is a lot of water, there are a lot of woods, and it is extremely hot. It is incomparable with our Liao land! However, when I go back to Nanyang this time, brother, I am really lucky. I have the honor to follow our general and fight with those white-haired ghosts.

We fought a battle!"

When everyone heard this, they became even more excited.

"Master Cui, what about those white-haired ghosts? Are they more powerful, or are the dog-Tatars more powerful?"

"Master Cui, you have experienced hundreds of battles with Li Shuai, and you are also a soldier of Li Shuai. Please tell us about it!"

"Master Cui, tell me, tell me!"

"..."

"Go, go, go! Let's go together."

Liu Ziqiang hurriedly waved his hands, eager to disperse the soldiers who were fighting Master Cui: "Master Cui has been busy for a long time, and he hasn't had time to take a breath yet! Are you bastards all itchy?"

Master Cui smiled: "Master Liu, it's okay. The morale of the brothers is very high! This is great! We can't work all the time, so we have to leave some rest time for the brothers, right? Come! I will tell the brothers.

The Battle of the Gulf in Nanyang..."

As Mr. Cui started to tell the story, the Ming army soldiers around him suddenly gathered around, listening to it intoxicated!

This Master Cui, whose name is Cui He, is a half-directed soldier of Li Yuanqing. He is a half-old man who followed Li Yuanqing in the third year of Tianqi.

This guy is a native of Zhenjiang. He is a herbal collector. Because he has been trading with Koreans all year round, he is proficient in the Yi language. In addition, he has been hanging out in the mountains all year round. His archery skills are also good, his body is quite strong, and he is very strong and brave.

such a pity.

God is jealous of talents.

In the battle of the Gulf against Executioner Jack at the Changsheng Camp, he was slashed several times by a tough white pirate from his face to his chest and his left elbow.

Although the tough white pirate was eventually beheaded by him, during the melee, he cut off the tendons of his left hand.

The injury on his face was nothing, but the injury on his left hand caused him to no longer be able to hold a shield.

As an excellent sword and shield soldier, Cui He naturally knew what this meant.

After returning to Liaodi, according to the opinions of the Town and Fu Department and the Political Affairs Bureau, they hope that Cui He will be discharged from the army and receive a generous reward. He can then work in a school on the island or in the logistics department. It is not too tiring to do a job.

Work idle and live the rest of your life comfortably.

But Cui He has been in the army for almost five years, and has been Li Yuanqing's personal soldier for nearly a year.

He looks a bit mature, but he is actually less than twenty-five years old!

After so many years, he has long been accustomed to this magnificent military career, accustomed to the most familiar wake-up call, accustomed to brothers gathering together to brag, accustomed to brothers drinking and eating meat together...

Ask him to go to school and ask those seven, eight, or ten-year-old brats to keep their wives and children on the bed every day. He really doesn't have the patience.

And if you ask him to go to the logistics department to count goods, it would be better to kill him!

He still wants to earn a family fortune for his fat, smart and precious son, follow the general and earn a reward!

Finally, this guy begged directly in front of Li Yuanqing, crying and shouting that he wanted to stay in the fighting order. He said to Li Yuanqing at that time, "General, I can't use my left hand very well, but I still have my right hand! I have my right hand."

You can kill Tatars even with a knife! If you want me to retire from the army, you might as well kill me."

Li Yuanqing also admired this guy very much.

In particular, the placement of retired soldiers from the Changsheng Battalion was Li Yuanqing's top priority in logistics affairs, and Li Yuanqing did not dare to neglect it at all.

As the saying goes, 'It's better to do it once than to say it a thousand times!'

How does Changsheng Camp form cohesion?

How to make these soldiers of the Changsheng Battalion, who are as tough as tigers and wolves, to be used by Li Yuanqing with peace of mind?

The most direct way is not how beautifully you say it, but how Li Yuanqing does it!

The retired soldiers of Changsheng Camp, especially the retired soldiers, will enjoy the highest honor on the island!

Except when facing General Li Yuanqing and other generals, they do not need to kneel when facing other generals. They only need to clasp their fists and salute.

Including rewards, land, women, etc., these retired soldiers will also have great privileges.

It seems that these people have retired and have no fighting power. Li Yuanqing's actions will inevitably increase the financial burden.

But~~, these people are almost all veterans, good old men, and the cornerstone of Li Yuanqing’s success!

With their word of mouth and their example, why would Li Yuanqing worry that the soldiers would not serve with all their heart and soul?

In the end, Li Yuanqing placed Cui He in Duan Xiliang's No. 1,000 Corps and served as the flag-bearer of the third team of the baggage train.

Logically speaking, Li Yuanqing's personal soldiers should at least enjoy the treatment of the general flag.

For an old veteran like Cui He who has made many achievements, he should be at least the deputy commander, or even the commander.

However, this guy went beyond the level to meet Li Yuanqing and threatened Li Yuanqing with life and death. How could Li Yuanqing not let him have a better memory?

However, although he was demoted, Cui He was extremely happy with this position.

He is a veteran!

He understood very well that as long as he could stay in the ranks of soldiers in the Changsheng Battalion, even if it was a baggage train, would he still worry about not having a chance to kill the enemy?

Based on his ability, are you still worried about not being able to get promoted?

Since the four divisions merged, Cui He has become increasingly aware of the wisdom of his decision.

As long as they are the soldiers of the Changsheng Battalion, even the top soldiers? When the brothers from the other three divisions meet, they are definitely the center of the center.
