On the way back, Wu Kai smiled broadly, but felt a bad breath in his heart.
Thinking about how he was deceived by the man named Shen into boarding Xuan Qingwei's pirate ship before, although he got a lot of benefits, it also made him worry about it for half a year, for fear of being implicated in the case. Later, due to his breakthrough in cultivation, he became eligible for promotion, and many generals in the Tun Army were purged and died, so Wu Kai was considered to be on the list of supplementary generals in the Tun Army, and he could be promoted as soon as the opportunity came.
Yesterday, he received an order from the Daoxing General Manager Yamen, asking him to join a Jingnan Army troop of ten thousand people entering the border area and march south to Zhuohuo Pass tomorrow.
Although he did not receive the promotion order, Wu Kai still clenched his fists happily. Although it is foreseeable that he will be transferred from the Tun Army to the Jingnan Army and will be in the position of a subordinate army and cannot be the main battle position, Wu Kai is not afraid. He believes that he and his soldiers will definitely get the 10,000 yuan from the Jingnan Army. Approved by the border army.
Besides, isn't this the greatest blessing for Wu Kai to be able to escape from the miscellaneous situation of the garrison army?
Of course, he was happy, but Wu Kai was not blindly proud. While arranging the soldiers and waiting to rendezvous, he was also thinking about how to open up the situation for this expedition.
In addition to military affairs and matters in the battle formation, there are also some external constraints that Wu Kai dare not ignore. For example, it is difficult not to pay attention to those supervisory envoys who are making a lot of noise in the border army.
Who looked down on those black men in the past? Scorned by the military and ostracized by the supervisors, he has long been reduced to a lookalike that no one cares about. In the army, he just eats and waits to die. But who dares to call these people "black-skinned" now? On the contrary, smiling and being pleasant to others is a common phenomenon among border troops nowadays.
It's a pity that the previous dislike of Junwu made the supervisors regard Junwu as passers-by. Now it is difficult to repair the relationship, at least not in a short time. Anyway, Wu Kai can't get along without acquaintances in this field. Familiar faces.
But now the supervisory envoy's weight in the military is no longer the same. The main reason is that the supervisory envoy's authority is to curb the supervisory army, which is very critical.
For the supervisory envoy, the army used to dislike him, but for the supervisory army, everyone in the army is disgusted. A group of military officers who had read military books for a few days but had never led an army in a battle were gesticulating in front of a group of generals who had survived the war. If it weren't for the pressure of the law, none of these supervisors would have survived more than three days.
Now that Wu Kai has entered the main battle establishment of the border army, this is a good thing, but it also means that all his actions will be restricted by the supervisory army. Even military training may be criticized as "careless fatigue" Soldier!" or "So easy, is it called training?", anyway, it's too easy to label you.
Therefore, if you can win the favor of the supervisor in the military, it will be of great benefit to your flexibility in battle and the writing of battle reports. In many cases, it can even be directly linked to military merit.
After Wu Kai thought about it, he decided to target the newly appointed supervisory officer, Mr. Shen. He knew what this man was capable of. Although the situation in the border army was complicated, it was still difficult for him. Moreover, he had been tricked by this man before. Why not take the opportunity to make some money back?
Just do what comes to mind. He sent people to hunt for a cartload of game in the mountains, and asked someone to collect a cartload of local specialties from the homes of fellow villagers in the surrounding military villages. Then he went to them with great fanfare.
Why? It was not just to let others see his visit.
Who can come to the door with a gift and not be beaten with a stick by Master Shen? He can do it with Wu Kai! Shen Hao was sure that he would wonder why he suddenly came to the door and let him in. Doesn’t this taste like “old” from the outside?
Then he went round and round with his words, became more enthusiastic, and stunned the man named Shen, and actually sent him to the door. And we chatted at the door for a long time.
Now the gossip that "Wu Kai and Master Shen are old friends" should spread quickly among the supervisory staff, right?
Nowadays, among the border army inspectors, people named Shen are respected. As long as Wu Kai is related to people named Shen, is he afraid that he will not be taken care of? Now that he is no longer working in the army, as long as he survives the war, he will definitely get the opportunity to be promoted. Compared with these benefits, being labeled as a personal relationship supervisor is nothing.
As for whether the person surnamed Shen would be upset after reacting, Wu Kai didn't care. This kind of trick can only be played once and he doesn't expect to do it again next time.
Back at the camp, most of the soldiers under his command have been packed up and the baggage has been loaded, and they are waiting to officially break camp early tomorrow morning.
"Send all these edible things to the kitchen and give the brothers extra food in the evening."
Bringing things here is just for show, which is why they are all local products and game instead of expensive things. These things are not valuable, even if they are gifts, they are still on the line, and Wu Kai can move in and out freely.
After having a solid meal, before dawn the next day, the camp where Wu Kai was located received a formal order to mobilize soldiers, and then they broke out of camp and headed for Zhuohuo Pass in batches from the teleportation circle.
The 10,000-person team here is not just a miscellaneous one named Wu Kai, but a full five. The two sides add up to 20,000 people. It seems that they are going to be unified into a mixed army, but will it happen in the future? It's unclear if he is used as the main force.
After reaching the Zhuhuo Pass, I thought there would be an adjustment and adaptation period. Generally, the new mixed organization will use this to sort out various connections, so that everyone can quickly upload and distribute and concentrate their efforts when in the battle formation. However, the entire team showed no signs of stopping for repairs or setting up camp. Instead, they stopped at the Zhuhuo Pass for about an hour and then immediately moved on.
"Are you going to leave the country directly and go south?!" Wu Kai was slightly shocked. Because no time has been set aside for rectification and adjustment, this means that the situation outside the customs has become urgent and is definitely more serious than he thought before.
"Think, thump, thump..." A fast horse ran over, checked Wu Kai's waistband, handed him an order, and then ran away quickly.
It was a mixed military order issued by the commander of the mixed army. It asked Wu Kai to rectify his subordinates and follow the mixed army to pass Zhuohuo Pass and go south. The running-in of the mixed army will be carried out along the bamboo road after leaving the customs. It will mainly focus on cooperating with the march and offensive and defensive drills, requiring Wu Kai to prepare in advance.
Wu Kai quickly called his adjutant to lay out the requirements in the order. At the same time, he asked the soldiers to check their weapons and equipment again. There was a long march ahead. If there was anything wrong, it was best to replace it now. Not so convenient anymore.
Half an hour later, Wu Kai followed the surrounding soldiers and lined up through the long pass. After exiting, the first thing he saw was the long and narrow bamboo path in the middle of the mountain with no end.
