Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but no one answered his question.Gu Changfeng felt as if he had punched the soft cotton with full strength, and he felt very depressed.

From the moment he decided to go to the frontier to inherit his father's last wish, he was ready to fight the enemy, so he did not hesitate to attack the enemy.But these people have no such awareness at all.In the past few years, the weather in Daqi has been smooth and the people live and work in peace and contentment, causing many people to forget the barbarians who stared at Daqi and brutally killed their compatriots with iron cavalry.

Gu Changfeng clenched his fists and his face was gloomy.

The recruits swallowed, ready to bear his anger, but Gu Changfeng clenched his fists and then loosened them.

"Right now the barbarians are just sending a small team to test things out. When the full-scale war starts, it will not be a small fight like this tonight. Everyone will go to the battlefield. The sword has no eyes, you die or you live. We can't hide behind forever... ..." Gu Changfeng looked at these recruits calmly with his dark eyes, "If you continue to disobey orders and act without authorization like tonight, you may be the next to die."

"Laziness, weakness, cowardice, and ruthlessness will only bring Hades closer to you."

"I don't want you to become anyone's stepping stone."

After finishing speaking, Gu Changfeng didn't say any more, but ordered everyone to clean up the battlefield, and then retreated to the camp.

Everyone looked at his cold and resolute face with complicated expressions.As the heir of the Zhenguo government, Gu Changfeng has a valuable status, but he did not insist on being special because of his status. Instead, he enjoys the same treatment as recruits as they do, and the daily training is stronger than theirs.

This person has never been on the battlefield, but when facing the enemy, he is calm and calm, decisive and ruthless. Could it be that this person is a born fighter?

But he is a twin...

They are not even as good as a twin.

On the way back, the recruits were not as excited and eager as when they came, everyone was silent, and the atmosphere was a bit heavy.Gu Changfeng could see the bewilderment in their eyes.

The silence of the crowd just now really made him angry, but thinking about it again, except for a few who yearn for the military camp, most of the recruits are ordinary people with no lofty aspirations.They just want to earn two more money, then marry a wife and have children, and live this ordinary life.

The concept of war is too far away for them. Although they have joined the army, they are not yet qualified soldiers mentally.

He felt a little powerless, but the next moment he thought of Shen Yanbei.

His youth is flexible in mind and always has his own unique insights into things.If he encountered such a situation, he would definitely not think of using reprimands to force the recruits to change their mentality and correct attitude, and it can't be changed.

So what will he do?

Find a contradiction in things?To solve it from another angle?

Thinking in this way, Gu Changfeng's heart suddenly brightened.

There is no such lofty ambition as defending the country, which involves oneself

Interests should always be taken care of, right?Gu Changfeng felt relieved, feeling that he had found the right entry point.

Back at the barracks, Gu Changfeng went to pay his errand first.Just as Tai Qi asked about the night attack, Gu Changfeng truthfully responded and reflected on himself.

"Although they did not obey the command, it was also my lack of thoughtfulness and improper command."

Tai Qi just finished listening, but frowned.He looked at Gu Changfeng with a serious expression: "Even though you are strong in martial arts, what you fight on the battlefield is not your personal force, but the cooperation and assistance of various military services."

"Once a war starts, you can't care about everyone." Tai Qigang said solemnly, "To care too much about their life and death will affect your command."

"Long Feng, people will die every day on the battlefield, you have to learn to look down on life and death."

"They are soldiers you brought over, but they are not your responsibility."

Gu Changfeng was taken aback.

"Go back and think about it." Tai Qi just patted him on the shoulder

"Yes." Gu Changfeng replied in a muffled voice.

……

On the next day when there was an exercise at Maoshi, Gu Changfeng arrived at the school early as usual, but he didn't sleep all night last night, his eyes were slightly bloodshot, and he looked a little scary.

Before the horn sounded, all the recruits were neatly dressed and lined up in the school grounds to wait for the roll call by the captain.The drums sounded, and the recruits began to drill.

Gu Changfeng was patrolling the queues with a long whip in his hand. The usual lazy recruits saw him walking towards him with red eyes and a sullen face, and they cheered up and repeated the movements they had practiced countless times.On the other hand, the recruits who made up the [-]-man team last night didn't know whether they felt guilty or they were awakened. They were very serious during the drill, and no one was whipped.

Gu Changfeng saw it in his eyes, and the corners of his lips were slightly loosened.

In the following days, barbarian squads continued to visit and harass, and the atmosphere in the Daqi barracks suddenly became tense.

Finally, in mid-July, a menacing cavalry appeared on the other side of the wasteland.

The dust was flying, covering the sky and the sun, and tens of thousands of cavalry were unstoppable driving thousands of miles like raging sea waves.

The barbarians invaded the country!

In the past, the barbarians came to invade after the autumn harvest, but this year, the barbarians launched before the end of summer.Taiqi just dispatched troops and generals to meet him, and the army was sent to Yongjing city in a hurry.

At the same time, Shen Yanbei, who had just received the secret order, packed his bags and waited for the opportunity to run away.

There was a plague of locusts in Shangrao County, and Zhao Yu ordered him, an imperial envoy, to go to deal with it.He found an excuse to go to the county below Minzhou to check the post-disaster reconstruction situation early in the morning, and slipped away with the imperial army who had followed secretly.

"My lord, accept the order." The dusty little eunuch reminded King Jinyang again, looking at King Jinyang who had been frozen there as if struck by lightning since he read out the imperial edict.

King Jinyang's face turned from white to blue, from blue to red, and finally to gloomy black.

The imperial decree said that the national treasury was empty, there was another locust plague in Shangrao County and needed assistance, and a large amount of money was needed for border training, and the imperial court really couldn't afford 10 taels.The event of the earthquake has been announced to the world, calling on the relatives of the emperor, officials, wealthy businessmen, nobles, etc. to donate money, rice, food and other materials, to inform the world of their names, to issue silk banners to commend their good deeds, and to reward them when the treasury is full.Order him to pay attention to whether someone donates, and be sure to register the name of the donator and report it to the court!

20 taels are gone...

"Ah—" With a low growl, the King of Jinyang rushed over like a raging lion and grabbed the eunuch's lapel, and asked with a ferocious expression, "You just said that boy Shen Yan was on the road in Linshui County. Already?" The little eunuch went south with two imperial decrees, and they read out when they met Shen Yanbei on the road together!

"Yes, Mr. Shen said that the situation is urgent, so he will not come back to bid farewell to the prince. He said that the remaining disaster money will be distributed to the families of the victims as burial expenses for the victims. People have notified the villages that they will come to the yamen tomorrow. Receive it. He also said that the details of the use of the disaster silver have been posted on Changsheng Street for people to check, and the amount is correct, so you can rest assured, my lord..."

The blood in the chest was overwhelming, and King Jinyang was so angry that he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

After dismissing the little eunuch, King Jinyang was furious, red-eyed kicked Zhizhou who was kneeling on the ground fiercely, and shouted: "Chasing! Chase me! Take that bastard Shen Yan back and smash him into pieces! "

"Yes! Yes!" Zhizhou, who was sweating profusely, ran out scrambling.

Frantically smashing everything in the room, the distorted Jinyang Wang Hong drew out the sword hanging on the wall and rushed out.Seeing his disheveled hair and crown, no hideous appearance of slashing at will with a sharp knife in his hand, the servants of the palace shouted and scattered in fear of being touched by the sharp sword.

"Ah, God, you are deceiving people too much!" King Jinyang roared at the sky.

Because there were too many victims, he was forced to take out the other half of the hidden supplies to distribute, but now that the 20 taels were gone and the supplies were gone, what would he use to support those hidden soldiers?Zhao Yu said that he was asked to organize officials and wealthy businessmen to donate, but he forced officials and rich households and others to donate the money to buy those supplies!

Shen Yanbei, who had cheated the King of Jinyang again, was riding on the horse, listening to the noisy cicadas singing all around, feeling not at all relaxed.In order to run away quickly, he didn't even sit in the carriage!

"Master Shen, there is a post station ahead, why don't you take a rest and drink before you go?" The scorching sun and no wind, it was very hard to travel in such weather. The leader of the imperial army who was traveling with him was worried when he saw Shen Yanbei's face was flushed. As a civil servant, he couldn't stand it, so he spoke.

As the imperial army, their duty is to guard the imperial city. When they received the order from the superior to escort the imperial envoy to the south for disaster relief, everyone was not happy.Firstly, the long-distance travel is really hard, and secondly, the Hanlin officials are so noble that they look down on these warriors.But along the way, Shen Yanbei overturned their perception of Hanlin officials.

Being approachable is their first impression of Shen Yanbei.When they met for the first time, Shen Yanbei clasped his fists and said that this trip to the south will help you all, which really flattered them.It is their duty to protect the imperial envoys, so where is the hard work?He travels day and night, and often sleeps in the open air, but this person doesn't care, and shows them his hand from time to time, which is really surprising.

Second impressions are chatty.These military officers don't know a single character, bragging and beating are very vulgar, but this man listens with a slight smile, he can catch up with whatever he says, and he can say one, two, three, with a calm voice, humorous, No arrogance at all.

But what impressed them most about Shen Yanbei was his wisdom.

As an imperial envoy, the young official was at his most striking.He is witty, calm, and well-founded. No wonder the emperor appointed him as an imperial envoy.

"Okay, brothers have worked hard too, let people serve two good dishes and two jugs of good wine, everyone have a rest." Shen Yanbei laughed.They ran for so long, even if King Jinyang was blown up, he would not be able to catch up.

"Yes!" The leader of the forbidden army greeted his brothers to get off their horses.

Drinking slightly bitter tea, Shen Yanbei looked up at the blue sky high and far outside the window, feeling a little irritable.The summer is scorching hot and the heat is unbearable. His wife must have worked harder than him at the border.

Originally, he was thinking of asking the emperor for an errand to go to the border for a walk after the disaster relief, but he didn't expect that there was a locust plague in Shangrao County.

The locusts crossed the border, and there was no harvest. It was impossible to fight without food at the border. He could only think of a way to solve that thing before looking for a wife.
