Shen Cha's words were not nonsense at all. Soon, Shen Haolin saw how courageous Qin Zheng was.
According to the rules of the competition, except for the final camp duel, which requires the leaders of each team to take action, in other aspects, everything depends on the performance of the soldiers themselves. Even small suggestions or opinions are not allowed. of.
There is such a requirement because the generals of each camp will participate in the formulation, discussion and arrangement of the competition session before the big competition. If reminders or hints are given, it will be very unfair to other camps.
Moreover, the annual competition itself does not test and examine the strength, experience and overall outlook of the generals. It is to train the soldiers under their command. Naturally, they will not help. If they cannot make it to the end in the competition, they will It shows that they still have room for improvement and have many shortcomings, and more rigorous training is needed to make up for these.
However, such rules have long been the default in the Shen Jiajun camp, and no one raised any objections, whether they were new recruits or veterans.
It was Qin Zheng's first time to participate in the Shen Jiajun's big competition. When he was still a member of the Shen Jiajun, there were not so many tricks. At that time, everyone practiced step by step and then went to attack the invading enemies. . Moreover, at that time, the situation was not very good, the border was not very peaceful, and various frictions occurred from time to time. There was no time to engage in such a large-scale competition. They had never even thought that there would be so many soldiers in training. All kinds of strange tricks.
Ever since he knew that Shen Jiajun had so many tricks, Qin Zheng always lamented to Uncle Yan that if they had had such a training method when they were young, their strength might have been greatly improved, and they might have defeated Liao and Jin. Fell down to dryness.
Yan Bo agreed with Qin Zheng's statement. Although they lost very few times at that time, every battle they fought was very difficult, and the wins were lucky. After all, the innate physique of the Daxia people was quite different from that of the Liao and Jin Dynasties. If there is a gap, they can only continue to make up for this gap through acquired efforts. But at that time, they only followed the rules when training, so the effect was not very obvious. Thankfully, even though the process was difficult, they won.
As for why Jiaping Guancheng became so dilapidated, miserable, and open to bullying, His Highness Prince Ning, who also knew about this past event and insisted on seeing what the secret room exploration was like, was like Shen Haolin, Shen Cha, and Xue Ruitian. A group of children complained because some people in the court were afraid that the Shen family's momentum would develop too fast and something they didn't want to see would happen. They used various methods to force his father to transfer the Shen family's army and use the lives of the people at the border as a measure. The price is paid to soothe the uneasiness in their hearts.
"The corpses are just eating. Just to worry about things that haven't happened yet, you put the lives of border officers and people at risk!" Xue Ruitian slapped the wall next to him fiercely, "These people should be killed!"
"However, the imperial grandfather can actually agree?" Song Qiyun looked at His Highness Prince Ning, then at Qin Zheng and Uncle Yan, "This is not reasonable!"
"If you don't break it, you won't establish it. My father is using facts and hard lessons to tell those so-called Qingliu who are so full that they can't defeat the Liao and Jin Dynasties just by talking." His Highness Prince Ning yawned and curled his lips in disgust. "You would never have imagined that those sanctimonious people and scholars who always talk about their family, country, and world would, when faced with such a tragic situation, simply say in an understatement that they are just reckless men and untouchables. It’s worth their trouble, it doesn’t matter whether they live or die.”
“These beasts!”
"No wonder those scholars who committed crimes were later exiled to the border. Was the Imperial Grandfather particularly angry when they heard what they said?" Shen Cha looked at His Highness Prince Ning, "When they said such words, weren't they seeking death themselves?"
"Didn't you seek death yourself? My father, Long Yan, was furious and killed these beasts directly in the court. Their families, relatives, friends, old friends, and the nine tribes were all implicated. Adult men and women were all killed. Those who are minors will be exiled to the border. Moreover, my father also said that no matter whether these minors have made meritorious service on the battlefield, they will not be promoted and cannot be promoted. Moreover, from their generation downwards For three generations, one is not allowed to leave the military household, and only after three generations can one be promoted."
"Understood!" Shen Cha nodded, "What the Imperial Grandfather means is that since you don't treat the border guards and people as human beings, then let your descendants treat these as you do not treat them as human beings."
"That's right." His Highness Prince Ning nodded, "And the most heartbreaking thing is that every once in a while, special people will be sent to explain to their descendants why they ended up like this and why they fought so hard to kill the enemy. It is impossible for them to get promoted, let them know what their ancestors did and said."
"I have to say, Your Highness, this move is too cruel." Xue Ruitian sighed, "It kills people and punishes the heart, but that's all. Even if he is allowed to be promoted after three generations, after knowing what his grandfather and great-grandfather did, , I probably have no intention of being promoted, right?" He thought for a while, "By the way, where were these people exiled?"
"Where else could it be?" His Highness Prince Ning raised his eyebrows and shook Qin Zheng's arm, "Of course it's the southwest border pass where our Azheng was stationed before. Although the number of battles in that place is not higher than here, but those in the southwest People in the tribe are not easy to get along with. As the lowest status and class, they will bear the brunt of any disputes or frictions. This job is not easy, and they will be beaten, scolded or otherwise. They have to suffer any bad luck. Besides, Ah Zheng knows how evil the situation there is. They are good at using poison and will attack anyone they don't like. So, this is A lesson from my father to these bastards who despise everything."
"Southwest?" Shen Cha thought for a while, looked at Shen Haolin, then looked at Xue Ruitian, and thought for a moment, "So it's Southwest? Is this a coincidence?"
"What did you think of?" His Highness Prince Ning tilted his head and looked at Shen Cha, "What is a coincidence?"
"Those southwest merchants in the dungeon are also from the southwest." Shen Cha sighed softly and waved to Ying Wu, who had been following them waiting for instructions, "Look for a chance to see where those friends are from. Yes, by the way, please keep an eye on the Dianhe brothers and their men with the shopkeeper."
"I know!" Parrot nodded, "Boss, what do you mean..."
"There will never be a shortage of dissatisfied people and people who want to make a comeback."
