Daqin Engineering Corps

No wonder the gunners and craftsmen are so angry.

At least from this battle, the artillery division will kill no fewer enemies than the soldiers of the Qin army.

It can even be said that these soldiers of the Qin Army were rescued by the artillery division...

Without the stone bomb blockade of the artillery division, the Great Wall would have been breached long ago, and these soldiers had been chopped into several pieces.

But as soon as the soldiers of the Qin Army received the favor of the artillery master, they turned around and sneered at the artillery master.

The turmoil finally ended with the leader of the group adding a bowl of porridge to each of the gunners.

Thinking about it later, Shen Bing felt that this was actually caused by the rapid rise in the status of the artillery division.

But ten days.

The artillery division has suddenly become outstanding from the original dispensable, and may even challenge the infantry's main combat status.

It was so fast that other people hadn't reacted yet, and they couldn't accept it psychologically for a while.

This is not a good thing.

Because gunners are all craftsmen, although they have a bronze sword for self-defense, few of them know how to use it.

In the future, if you want to save your life on the battlefield, you will still need infantry.

Therefore, it is necessary to establish a good relationship with the infantry and integrate into this combat system.

After serious consideration, Shen Bing thought that there were only two ways.

One is to continue to make meritorious service on the battlefield. The battlefield is a place to fight for strength.

As the saying goes, "It takes one's own strength to strike iron." Only when the gunner is strong can he be respected by others.

But this is not difficult.

As long as Shen Bing is there, how can the gunner have no reason?

The trebuchet is almost improved and can still make a fuss about the shells.

The shells almost still have siege ladders, and after the siege ladders...

What is really difficult is how to build a good relationship with the soldiers of the Qin army.

You must know that the status of soldiers in the Qin Army is generally higher than that of gunners and craftsmen...

Among the soldiers of the Qin Army, there are many Gongshi, and almost all of them are Gongshi and above.

On the one hand, because the title can be inherited, many people can inherit the title from their father even if they have not fought in war.

On the other hand, after several rounds of battles, more or less some heads were chopped off to make meritorious deeds.

So for a soldier, a public servant is almost the lowest-level crossbowman who doesn't wear armor and can barely eat.

The reason why the gentleman's hair is turned to the right instead of the center is because the gentleman can only be a crossbowman without armor.

When crossbowmen fight in several rows, they should try their best to have a wide field of vision.

And the bun in the middle will block the line of sight.

Therefore, those below the official position should turn their heads to the left, and those above the official level should turn their heads to the right.

It is both a symbol of title and a requirement of the battlefield.

And there are not many public officers in the artillery division.

In such a situation of completely unequal status and status, the artillery division basically has nothing to please the soldiers.

Qin Jun was still struggling with this problem just now.

I don't want the opportunity to come right away.

Just thinking about it, Yang Ting asked:

"Is this true?"

"You want to atone for them with title and merit?"

Shen Bing put on an air of indifference to fame and wealth and a heroic boldness, and waved his hand grandly:

"It's true!"

"A real man keeps his word!"

"It's just some extraneous things like titles and merits, nothing trivial!"

Chapter 25 The Heart Is Bleeding

however.

When Shen Bing saw the "compassionate" look on Jian Yushi's face, he realized that he might have done something wrong.

Sure enough, in the next second, he checked the history of the prison on the bamboo slips and said:

"Shen Bing, the gunner operator."

"Improve the trebuchet for the duke."

"Improved the trebuchet again and bestowed upon it."

"Provide a strategy to defend the Great Wall of Cixian County and bestow a noble hairpin."

"Lead the artillery division to repel Zhao Jun to keep the Great Wall safe, and the honor will not change..."

Hearing this, Shen Bing couldn't help but "hum" his head.

Nima, I actually went up to "No Update" three times in a row.

Doesn't this "no change" mean that you don't have to do more service?

In other words, I can go home swaggeringly?

Can you leave the battlefield and go back to enjoy the happiness?

Then I'm still a coquette?

Of course I chose to go home!

You said earlier...you donate it only when your brain gets flooded!

Can I go back on my word now?

But it's too late...

The censor continued:

"Shen Bing voluntarily offered a three-level nobility to pay for his crime, and Zhang Xuan gave him fifty lashes."

"The rest of them have changed from punishment to facial tattooing."

"Shen Bing is still a first-class duke."

Shen Bing: %&%**####...

As soon as Yang Ting gave an order, the soldiers changed the torture tools.

Fifty lashes need no explanation.

Tattooing is to tattoo on the face and then paint it with ink.

It's almost like a tattoo that can't be washed off in modern times.

The difference is that modern tattoos are "cool" and voluntary.

In ancient times, tattoos were used to humiliate, admonish, or prevent slaves from escaping.

But these are much better than torture, and it can even be said that a life is left behind.

Therefore, Zhang Xuan and more than a dozen soldiers all turned their grateful eyes to Shen Bing.

In fact, it wasn't just them, the infantry of the Qin army around them also cast admiring glances at Shen Bing.

Shen Bing could only return a wry smile.

The title of Qin Jun is more and more difficult to get as you go up.

A first-class official only needs to behead one person.

The second-level noble needs five, and the third-level noble needs nine.

Level [-] and higher is not just beheading.

Because at that time, they are usually junior officers.

The merit of an officer is calculated according to the number of battles he commanded and won.

Sometimes even if you win a battle, you have to be punished instead of being promoted... For example, the number of casualties is higher than the number of enemies killed.

So the higher you go, the more difficult it is to get a title.

Back then, the God of War Bai Qi even reached the level of the master of the earthquake, but he only reached the sixteenth level Jue Daliang Zao. (Note 1)

Now Shen Bing donated his fourth-level noble with a wave of his hand...

This is too extravagant!

However, this title is not donated in vain.

The first is that the status of the artillery division is immediately recognized.

Zhang Xuan found Shen Bing immediately.

At that time, he had just served his sentence and was whipped fifty times.

Caning in this era is not simply a few lashes.

It requires the victim to be topless and then whipped on the back with a barbed whip.

Every lash will bring up a strip of flesh and blood, and after fifty lashes, the flesh and blood will be bloody and the bones can be seen.

If an ordinary person receives fifty lashes, he may not be able to get out of bed without lying on his back for a few months.

But this Xuan is also stubborn, and he was helped to find him just after serving his sentence.

He was pale and sweating profusely, and his wound would twitch even when he spoke.

"Shen Bing!"

"Kindness without saying thanks!"

"There will be places where I can dazzle in the future..."

Shen Bing hurried forward to help Zhang Xuan who was about to bow down.

"Two or five hundred masters are too polite!"

"It's just a little effort, don't take two or five hundred masters to heart."

Even though he said that, Shen Bing's heart was bleeding.

Zhang Xuan nodded, and only replied with one word: "OK".

After saying that, he left with the help of his subordinates.

After returning, Zhang Xuan gave an order:

"In the future, if anyone disrespects the gunner, I'll cut off his head!"

"Especially Shen Bing, take good care of me!"

then.

The soldiers of the Qin Army immediately lowered their heads when they saw the artillery division going up and down.

Even a considerable part of this is voluntary.

Of course, the problem of discrimination against gunners will not disappear because of this.

But at least with the thousand-man team led by Zhang Xuan, it wasn't a problem.

At the same time, Shen Bing also encountered a problem.

It was lunch time again in the afternoon.

Shen Bing, who had just returned from logging, heard a burst of shouting and cursing.
