"You look down on people." Gongsun Yan glared, ignoring her brother who was standing beside her constantly rubbing his hands and stamping his feet, and said crisply: "I designed all the slogans in this military camp and in the county. There is a task you gave my brother to design the troop flag, and that was also designed by me.”
"Oh," Zhou Xing became interested when he heard Gongsun Yan say this. After he faked a fight with Yong Kai last time, he discovered that his troops didn't even have a flag. He had always been lazy in this regard, so he gave this task to Gongsun Shu. He came here this time to see how the flag was designed. "Where is it? Let me see!"
"It's in my brother's house." Seeing Zhou Xing's change of attitude, Gongsun Yan's face lit up, she jumped up to the door and opened it, "Junhou, please come in!"
Zhou Xing smiled, turned to look at Gongsun Shu who looked helpless, couldn't help laughing, and walked inside.
When he entered the room, he saw a piece of silk cloth about eight feet long and five feet wide with a black background and yellow edges placed on the four-corner table in the middle of the room. On it was a fierce white tiger with lifelike teeth and claws.
"Back then, during the reign of King Zhaoxiang of the Great Qin Empire, white tigers were causing harm. Qin, Shu, Badi, and Hanzhong all suffered from it. Within one year, more than 2,000 people died from the tigers. The King of Qin then publicly announced it in the four places. Recruitment said: There are people who can hunt white tigers, and they are called by thousands of families in the city, with gold and silk. There are three people in Badi called Liao Zhongyao, He Shehu, and Qin Jing, so they go together. After several months, they finally shoot the white tiger in Taibai Mountain. The King of Qin was overjoyed and carved a stone to commemorate his merits. The people of Ba are still proud of it." Gongsun Yan talked about her creation with great enthusiasm, "Our Bo Dao belongs to Badi, so I used the white tiger as a symbol. What do you think of the king? ?”
White tiger?
White Tiger Group?
Zhou Xing thought of something inappropriate for children for a moment, and glanced at Gongsun Yan, who was looking at him eagerly, and couldn't help but feel a bit dumbfounded.
"Ahem," he immediately realized his gaffe. After coughing twice, he solemnly praised loudly: "Very good. The first battalion of the elite army of Bodao people will be called Baihu Camp in the future! Gongsun Shu, you will let the entire battalion today." Be prepared. After the flag presentation is completed the day after tomorrow, we will set off for Deyang. By the way, you call the company commanders of each company to come over, and I will talk to them all."
Huang Yuan has been a little unhappy recently.
As the first monk to join Zhou Xing's army, Huang Yuan originally had high expectations. Even though many monks have appeared in the entire first battalion, Huang Yuan still looks down on them. Because his status as a monk was certified by the imperial court, certified by the Zhongzhong of Jianwei County, and registered, but those people were not.
Huang Yuan even looked down on Gongsun Shu, the commander of the first battalion, from the bottom of his heart.
You, Gongsun Shu, are a commoner, and I am a monk! Even if you are from the Gongsun family, civilians are civilians and monks are monks. Commoners are inferior and monks are noble. This is a matter of course in the Jin Dynasty.
In addition, due to various reasons, Zhou Xing taught Huang Yuan a few moves, the "Seventy-two Moves of the Divine Ape", which he could practice with the spiritual power contained in his current Qi sea, making Huang Yuan always think that he was Zhou Xing. A good disciple considers himself a disciple.
Ever since he learned those moves under Zhou Xing's guidance, he would practice them diligently as long as the spiritual power in his Qi Sea was full. The effect of practice is also immediate. The "Seventy-two Divine Ape" postures taught by Zhou Xing were originally one of the top techniques in the game. Although Huang Yuan can only practice three postures, it has already benefited him a lot. . Huang Yuan himself felt that his strength had been greatly improved compared to before, and his body and muscles were also much stronger. He was confident, and even with his bare hands, a dozen men from the first battalion were no match for him.
However, not to mention that the commander of the first battalion was not him, even the three company commanders below were not him.
"This villain, Gongsun Shu, is rejecting me and jealous of me." Huang Yuan couldn't help but grit his teeth every time he thought about this.
Every time at this time, he would silently recite in his heart how much Zhou Xing trusted him and taught him such Zhou Xing's cultivation techniques, and he wanted to repay his gratitude. But even so, the feeling of loss in my heart became stronger and stronger.
"What kind of shit is Qiao Feng, Xu Zhu and Murong Fu? Now he is also the company commander?" Seeing Qiao Feng, Xu Zhu and Murong Fu being informed one by one that Gao Junhou wanted to see them, he looked at their extremely proud expressions. , Huang Yuan felt that everyone's eyes looking at him were full of ridicule and sarcasm.
"It must be Gongsun Shu who deliberately suppressed me. He was afraid that the prince would replace him with me." The more Huang Yuan thought about it, the more he resented it.
At the same time, what Huang Yuan didn't know was that Gongsun Shu was talking to Zhou Xing about him.
"Huang Yuan is incompatible with everyone." Gongsun Shu explained: "He always talks about his status as a monk and always feels that he is superior to others. When everyone gathers to run, he is late or runs fast or slow, and he keeps saying Who can't do this, and who can't do that. But he is a monk after all, and everyone is afraid of him from the bottom of their hearts."
Gongsun Shu smiled helplessly when he said this, "You also know, Lord, that in our Jin Dynasty, civilians have to give way and salute when they meet monks, including myself. It was the same in the past. You ask my sister, I used to be in There is no status at all in the family, that is, my father is a monk and my sister is a monk, which is better. If my child is not a monk in the future, his status will be even lower. "
"Since my brother was appointed as the battalion commander by the Lord, my grandfather ordered everyone in the Taoist family to treat my brother as a monk." Gongsun Yan proudly interjected at this time, "My brother has been talented since he was a child. It’s just that you can’t practice true cultivation without spiritual veins.”
When Gongsun Shu heard what his sister said, he smiled, interrupted his sister and said: "So, in the first camp, I can't manage just this Huang Yuan. What's more, he talks about himself every day He was personally taught by you, the monarch, and is your personal disciple. Such a person made a mistake in the military camp. Who dares to punish him? Of course, no one is close to him, and he is alone every day. . How can such a person lead a team and convince everyone?"
"Uh." After listening to Gongsun Shu's description, Zhou Xing couldn't help but patted his forehead and felt a big headache. As someone who has never managed anyone before, he would never think of these things at ordinary times. He said subconsciously: "I see there are many monks in the state army. What do they look like?"
"Junhou, the army of the Jin Dynasty is the same as elsewhere. The monks are noble and the common people are humble. The concept you told us, Junhou, is that there are only grades and no status in the army. Regarding this, I disagree. I agree from the bottom of my heart. But in other armies, this is not the case at all. The monks are aloof. In the military camp, the monks just beat and scold civilians at will, and no one will say anything. And no civilians will take the responsibility. Officials hold only half-job positions, while civilians are just coolies and cannon fodder." After saying this, Gongsun Shu couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Immediately afterwards, he added: "Only with Junhou, did I see hope and understand why Zhuge Wuhou's army was invincible. It is what Junhou said, no matter what the status, rewards and punishments are treated equally. I Gongsun Shu himself is not a monk, so his inability to clearly reward and punish Huang Yuan is really due to my dereliction of duty and limited ability."
Zhou Xing looked intently, and Gongsun Shu's eyes clearly showed a sense of unwillingness and loss. He knew that Gongsun Shu was unwilling to accept that he was not a monk.
He took a step forward, patted Gongsun Shu on the shoulder with an encouraging smile, and said: "You have always done a good job. I am very satisfied with the training and appearance of this army. Are you a monk or not? This is not my promotion of talents. Standards. Whether you can do things well is my standard for promoting talents. As long as you are qualified, not to mention the battalion commander, but also the future regiment commander and division commander, I will let you do it."
Seeing Gongsun Shu's expression of gratitude, Zhou Xing was very satisfied and continued to speak loudly: "As for Huang Yuan's problem, it's because I didn't think it through well and it has nothing to do with Battalion Commander Gongsun. There cannot be no monks in the army, but How monks and civilians get along in the military camp is a big issue, a big issue related to the unity and combat effectiveness of the army. I will seriously consider this issue and find a suitable way to solve it."
"Report, first company commander Qiao Feng, second company commander Xu Zhu, and third company commander Murong Fu are here to report!" At this moment, three loud voices sounded outside the house.
"Hahahaha." Every time he heard the names of these three people, Zhou Xing couldn't help but want to laugh, but there was still a trace of regret in his heart. Why couldn't the man named Duan Yu become the captain of the third company? He was snatched away by Murong Fu. A position. It seems that I didn't name it well at that time. "Please come in quickly, my warriors!"
"Qiao Feng, you have become a lot stronger." Zhou Xing punched Qiao Feng's chest affectionately. This action immediately aroused the envious eyes of others in the room. "It seems that your cultivation has made great progress."
"Report to the Lord," Qiao Feng stood up straight with his legs and said loudly excitedly: "I have just made a breakthrough. I will train even harder in the future."
Yong Kai spoke very highly of Qiao Feng and the others. In the process of Yong Kai's unification of the Five Feet Dao, the 100 men led by Qiao Feng must be the first to ascend. Although there is not a single monk, the kind of machine-like cold team combat makes Yong Kai, Boss Wu and others look forward to it. He was so frightened that he even had an incomparable sense of fear. After every battle, the casualty rate of Qiao Feng's company wearing rattan armor was very low, and sometimes even one person would be killed before the opponent was defeated.
"If there are ten thousand men like this, they can do it all over the world." This is Yong Kai's private emotion to Wu Lao Da Ehu and others. It's just that he doesn't understand why Zhou Xing always only maintains a scale of 500 people.
Xu Zhu and Murong Fu also emerged in this process.
In the process of conquering the bandits along the Wuchi Road, rich trophies also followed. With this capital, Zhou Xing was not stingy with money and asked Ling Pu to check the spiritual veins and sea of Qi one by one for these people who had made contributions to the expedition.
Although Zhou Xing is an otaku, he still knows some basic things very well.
You can't have a big pot of rice, and you can't get a reward for nothing.
In his memory, there was a small story that impressed him very deeply. It is said that a man gave five yuan to a beggar at the subway station every day. But one day he went out with his girlfriend and spent all the money. When passing by the subway station, he said to the beggar: "Sorry, I am with my girlfriend today." I’ve spent all my money to play, so I’ll give you money tomorrow.” Hearing this, the beggar was furious and said, “You actually used my money to treat your girlfriend to play?”
Those who have merit will be rewarded, and those who have done nothing will not be rewarded. Not only did Zhou Xing say this to Gongsun Shu, he also acted in strict accordance with this principle.
When he originally planned to send people and Yong Kai to fight together, well, it was actually Zhou Xing who wanted to train his team among the bandits who were not very effective in combat. Zhou Xing did not let Gongsun Shu forcefully assign them, but asked Gongsun Shu to volunteer in the military camp. How to register.
Qiao Feng, Xu Zhu, Murong Fu and others immediately signed up to participate, but Huang Yuan did not participate from beginning to end.
Gongsun Shu only led Qiao Feng and others a few times in the front. Later, he found that Qiao Feng was very good at these things, so he handed over the hundred or so people to Qiao Feng to lead, and he returned to the camp to train the remaining others. people.
When Qiao Feng and others returned and Ling Pu checked the spiritual veins and seas of the people who went on the expedition one by one, those who did not go on the expedition were all jealous and shouted why they didn't sign up to participate in the first place.
You must know that checking people's spiritual veins and seas has always been the exclusive preserve of those monk families. Although there is no explicit regulation, no one is willing to check other unrelated people.
An extra monk who is not one of your own comes out for nothing?
Isn’t this going to create competition and trouble for yourself?
Therefore, generally without special circumstances, in a place, the ancestors of a civilian family have been civilians for generations, while the ancestors of a monk family have been monks for generations. As long as we can monopolize this opportunity, no one would be a fool not to monopolize it.
To Zhou Xing's surprise, among the hundred or so people who went on the expedition, Ling Pu detected six people who could cultivate. Among them, Xu Zhu and Duan Yu have the highest talents. They both have four spiritual veins, while Qiao Feng only has two spiritual veins and Murong Fu only has one.
Even so, Qiao Feng and Murong Fu were ecstatic after knowing that they had spiritual veins. Murong Fu knelt on the ground on the spot, crying, laughing, and kowtowing to Ling Pu. No one else laughed at Murong Fu. Everyone looked at Murong Fu with only deep envy and jealousy in their eyes.
Monk!
Unattainable monk!
Once you become a monk, you will be in two different worlds from the common people.
Not only that, Zhou Xing immediately announced that the monks in his army would be able to receive one Dou of Spiritual Valley as military pay per month, and he would personally teach Qi and body refining techniques.
Of course, after this order was announced, Zhou Xing himself felt a little regretful, and Wang Tianyun even complained from time to time that he was too generous.
"The imperial court of the Jin Dynasty only gave each ninth-grade monk a dou of spiritual grain a year. How can our family have so much money? How can anyone in the world give such spiritual grain to us? How much spiritual grain can our Bodao Kingdom harvest in a year? , have you calculated it?”
This was one of the reasons why he did not dare to expand his army.
He originally couldn't stand the unfairness the most, and naturally he didn't want this kind of situation to happen in the team he built, and he was the one who caused it.
