Wang Jing gave the order, and the soldiers of Nanzhai immediately gathered in the open space to the north in accordance with military orders.
In addition to the 100 soldiers Fan Yin brought to Donghu Village, there were more than 100 soldiers in Nanzhai.
They lined up in several rows under the leadership of their respective corps commanders and chiefs.
Half of the people who serve as corps commanders and chief commanders are meritorious people who made contributions in the last battle with the Liang Shanshui bandits.
The other half are talents who excel in training.
After lining up, the chilling atmosphere after rigorous training rose among the neatly lined up teams.
When Chen Yi saw this scene, he couldn't help but admire it.
Although the more than two hundred soldiers under his lord's command can't compare with the core elites of the Beggar Army and the Murong clan, they are much stronger than the Liang Shanshui thieves.
Even during the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty, he was regarded as an elite soldier.
You should know that during the Xuande period, the Ming Dynasty’s capital camps and garrison troops still retained the spirit of the founding of the People’s Republic of China and the Yongle period.
"With strong troops in hand, we will be able to defeat Murong's partial army this time!"
As a scholar, Shen Yi had deep in his heart the plot to assist the Ming Dynasty in making achievements and spreading his fame throughout the world.
Wang Jing was good at accepting advice and acted decisively, coupled with the army in front of him.
All these are in line with the image of the Ming Lord in his mind.
"I have seen how hard you have trained these days. Now our army is facing a powerful enemy. It takes a thousand days to raise troops but only a short time to use them. It's time for us to contribute!"
"The food you eat every day comes from the hard work of the people. If our army is defeated and the people suffer, everyone will not have a good ending... No one wants to go back to the days when they didn't have enough to eat every day, right?"
Wang Jing stood in front, looked at the people in front of him, and said in a deep voice.
Many soldiers did not speak.
However, Shen Yi could see that after hearing these words, they obviously thought of the days when they first came to this world and struggled to survive.
At that time, I didn’t have enough food and clothing, and I had to worry about my own safety every day.
If the beggar army is defeated this time and they lose their shelter, they will soon have nothing. When recovery first comes.
No, it's even worse than that time.
"If you don't want to live a hard life anymore, you have to work harder. Let's go to battle together and defeat the enemy! I promise here that as long as we can win, anyone who makes a contribution will be given a hundred acres of land, rice grains, and houses!"
"If someone has made great contributions, he will be directly promoted to team leader!"
In order to stimulate his soldiers, Wang Jing took out the fields and houses as bait.
All the soldiers' blood was irritated and their eyes were red!
Whether they are ordinary people or soldiers in the army, they all value their fields very much.
They didn't even think about the fact that Nanzhai had only opened a few hundred acres of farmland at this time, and the so-called land grant was only a reward on paper.
Everyone's attention was attracted by the words "granting a hundred acres of land".
Seeing the excitement on the faces of all the soldiers, Wang Jing was satisfied.
Boosting morale before a battle is an essential skill for famous generals, but Wang Jing has not yet learned this method.
But he has his own way.
As long as the soldiers under your command are fed and clothed, rewarded with land and houses, let them see hope for the future, and be generally fair when promoting meritorious service, it is easy to win over the morale of the army.
After boosting the morale of the army, Wang Jing immediately ordered that twenty soldiers be left behind, and then asked Tian Liangyun to organize the commanders and security chiefs of each armor to cut wood into soldiers and defend the southern village.
All the remaining soldiers crossed the river and stationed in Donghu Village, ready to attack at any time.
While crossing the river.
A soldier rushed over and brought unexpected news to Wang Jing and Shen Yi.
After Wang Jing learned about it, he immediately took Shen Yi first.
…
The two of them quickly arrived at Donghu Village, and team leader Fan Yin brought Zhang Che and Liu Song, two veterans of the beggar army, to greet them.
"Is there anyone inside?"
Wang Jing asked directly without greeting the other party.
"Yes, my subordinate arranged for the other party to wait in the lobby!" Fein said.
He nodded and quickly walked to the lobby in the center of the camp.
The people in the hall were pacing left and right, frowning slightly, as if they were thinking about something. When they heard the footsteps, they immediately turned and looked towards the door.
I saw a heroic young man striding forward, walking like a dragon or a tiger, and he was quite imposing.
To stay in his position and nourish his energy, Wang Jing has been obeying all orders these days.
Coupled with the confidence brought by his own Zhao Yun inheritance and the aura from the source world, they together formed his current temperament.
It is naturally far worse than "the appearance of a dragon and a phoenix, the appearance of the sun".
But just by virtue of temperament, you can stand out among many people and leave an impression.
The people in the hall also caught Wang Jing's eyes at the same time.
The people in the hall are not tall, have short beards and bright eyes.
The clothes on his body were stained with a lot of blood, and he looked quite embarrassed. There was a sword hanging on his waist, but it didn't look like he was fighting a man. He had a scholarly air about him.
"Zhu Wu pays homage to the deputy lieutenant!"
He stepped forward and saluted with his hands in hand.
"I have heard about the name of Shenji Military Advisor Zhu Wu for a long time. I didn't expect that I would be able to meet Mr. Zhu today!"
Wang Jing laughed.
The person who appeared in the hall was none other than the leader of Liangshan who had a relatively good reputation in the source world. He was the thirty-seventh among the leaders and the number one Earth Evil star, Zhu Wu, the divine machine strategist of the Earth Star!
Zhu Wu was not one of the five leaders of Liangshan Water Village.
Not long ago, he was unfortunately trapped by Murong's troops. He had no choice but to temporarily stay under Murong's command, and he didn't find a chance to escape until yesterday.
According to normal circumstances, after he escaped, he should go to Liangshan Water Village in East Lake.
But no one expected that after escaping, he would meet the spy Wang Jing sent to Bailian Village to inquire about the news. He learned about the current situation from the spies.
He took the initiative to come to Donghu Village and asked to see Wang Jing.
Wang Jing was very polite and invited Zhu Wu to sit down and talk. Except for Shen Yi, who sat beside him, everyone else stayed outside the door.
"To be honest, I am meeting the deputy lieutenant this time and I have something important to ask of you..."
After sitting down, Zhu Wu took the initiative to speak with bitterness on his face before Wang Jing asked.
When they first came to this world, Zhu Wu and his two brothers Yang Chun and Chen Da appeared five hundred miles to the north with more than a hundred of their men.
The three of them gathered the refugees, farmed and trained soldiers, and developed rapidly.
Unfortunately, they did not have the same luck as the Beggar Army. As soon as they developed a little power, they encountered Murong's cavalry.
Zhu Wu is good at arranging troops and is proficient in military strategy. He is a rare military talent among Liangshan leaders. Yang Chun and Chen Da are also brave men with strong abilities, much better than parallel imports like Wang Dingliu!
But no matter how powerful the three of them are, they can't withstand the trampling of Murong's cavalry.
During the resistance, Yang Chun, nicknamed White Flower Snake, was killed on horseback by a general of the Murong clan. Chen Da, the jumping tiger, was severely injured. Zhu Wu saw the opportunity early and managed to escape with his life by hiding among the crowd.
The three of them were dead and injured, and the rest were all captured by Murong's cavalry.
It wasn't until the Murong clan sent two groups to collect food not long ago that Zhu Wu found a chance to escape.
"Now my brother Chen Da is still trapped in the hands of the Murong family... If the deputy lieutenant is willing to come to the rescue, my brother Chen Da and I are willing to join the deputy lieutenant!"
Zhu Wu said.
Wang Jing and Shen Yi looked at each other, pondered for a moment, and then asked: "I understand Mr. Zhu's conditions, but I have a question. Please clarify it!"
"There is Liangshan Water Village in the East Lake. I wonder why sir didn't go to the water village to ask for help, but came to me instead?"
