Chapter 72 It's just a turkey!

Di Youmu took hundreds of riders to gallop across the mountains.

His task is to sweep the passage in the west of Wohu Mountain, and he needs to clear the passage within two quarters of an agreed upon.

According to information from the Staff Office, a checkpoint was set up in the passage to the west, with about twenty people guarding it.

There are no more deer antlers, just use wood to throw them on the ground, and don’t let the caravans pass by.

This can stop the convoy, but it cannot stop the cavalry.

Di Youmu's hundreds of riders roared past, and the temporary house made of wood was thrown away by the banking supervisor's guards. It soon started to burn. The man with more than a dozen rushes out of the inside, waving his sword and gun to boost his courage.

Diyoumu ordered coldly: "Shoot the arrow!"

After a rain of arrows, more than a dozen people lie in pools of blood and have long lost their lives.

Di Youmu glanced at him and ordered: "Continue to clean up!"

There is also a level ahead.

After arriving half a quarter of an hour, the level was still not noticed. It was quickly cleared by Di Youmu and could not even send messages.

Similar situations are the same in other directions.

After cleaning up, Di Youmu asked the horse to take a short rest, and then spread out the horse to monitor the area on this side.

This is the order of the Advisory Office. After cleaning up, the intersection in this direction must be controlled to prevent the Wohu Mountain bandits from escaping from here.

"Captain Di, let's just watch this?" Di Youmu's deputy wiped the blood-stained gun tip and said.

Di Youmu glanced at his deputy. This deputy was brought by Zhong Yi and was also a veteran in the army. When he came here as the backbone of the team building, Zhong Jiabing, Di Jiabing and Zhe Jiabing were all in the banking supervision guards, intertwined and checked and balanced each other. They did not deal with it very much in normal times.

Di Youmu looked at the instructor who was talking to the soldier who was vomiting for the first time not far away, and smiled and whispered: "As long as you are not afraid of military law, you can go up and grab the credit."

The deputy's neck shrank slightly and said with awkward smile: "I think it's good to keep your head on your neck."

The deputy was just a fun thing. Since its establishment, the Banking Regulatory Commission has established a military law with severe military laws. The treatment was extremely generous, but the cost of committing crimes was extremely high.

The three major disciplines and eight points of attention are not a joke. Every soldier must remember it and blurt out the corresponding punishment, and the soldiers must be able to recite it.

In fact, Di Youmu was also a little surprised. Although the army of the Song Dynasty had military disciplines, not even the officers might know it, let alone memorize it.

The military disciplines of the Song Dynasty were generally not very good. In this case, the imperial guards were like this. The military disciplines of the Xiang army were even worse, especially when performing military affairs outside, they were even more incapable of losing their heads.

In this 100-man team, not only are there two officers Di Youmu and his deputy, but also an instructor.

The instructor is specifically responsible for policy promotion and military discipline within the team. On weekdays, soldiers are not only skill training, but most of the time they spend teaching the soldiers.

Including literacy, learning the military's laws and regulations, rules and superiors' resolutions, orders, instructions, implementation of various contents and systems of various education, etc.

Diyoumu and his deputy also had to learn these courses together. Originally, the officers did not want to learn them, but the instructors were directly under the Staff Office, so they had to obey.

However, although the instructors have great power and responsibility, they are not allowed to intervene when carrying out military operations.

Di Youmu and his deputy were not used to this at first and did not understand it, but gradually they found that there were many benefits.

With instructors here, they don’t have to worry about soldiers fighting against them. No matter how ruthless they practice or how big the soldiers have to say, the soldiers’ resentment will disappear after the instructors finish the class.

The little tricks in it are quite magical.

The instructor just asked Di Youmu and his deputy to talk about how their comrades died on the battlefield and how cruel the war was. Then the instructor concluded that if he said that if he sweated more in peacetime and bleeding less in wartime, the soldiers' spirits calmed down.

There are many other things like this.

In addition, soldiers' obedience to orders and their ability to understand orders is improving.

Because most of the soldiers in the Song Dynasty did not recognize words but had no knowledge, most of them had their understanding, but these soldiers learned calligraphy under the guidance of their instructors.

Then they will also tell them stories, such as loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, and defending their country.

Many of them are based on the Song and Liao Wars, the Song and Xia Wars, and more are stories about famous generals from all dynasties and people protecting their homes, etc.

Di Youmu was confused and felt that this method was to make the soldiers more loyal, but he didn't quite understand what the principle was. After all, he didn't read much of his own books.

He didn't understand, but found it useful.

The soldiers under him were extremely obedient and had strict discipline. What’s even more bizarre is that although these soldiers were strong, they were actually a bit elegant in their behavior?

In fact, what he didn't know was that this was the power of knowledge.

Ouyang Bian's purpose in organizing the banking supervision and security was not only to protect the central bank, but also wanted to build an experimental army to see if the experience of future generations can be realized and to accumulate some experience at the same time.

Although Ouyang Bian didn't know how to build a gun and even though he knew the formula for gunpowder, it was not a good time to make it now, but letting soldiers know what to fight for is the most important thing at the moment.

Therefore, he asked the soldiers to learn to read and let them know why they fought for. The Song Dynasty was rich, the weapons were not bad, and the generals were actually very good. Although there were fewer cavalry, the problem was not these. The key was the low quality of the soldiers.

The Song army's military discipline was corrupt, the generals took the vacancies, the soldiers were trained too little, and the discipline was too poor. Such an army would not have been strong in combat, so it would be strange to use it to fight Xixia and Liao Kingdom to fight against the Liao Kingdom.

So Ouyang Bian started a new foundation and established an army that was not affected by other armies, or it could be said to be a new type of army, to open up a new path for future military reform.

While the cavalry team was sweeping and blocking, the central army began to advance.

Originally, Ouyang Bian and the staff officers could command the battle from a distance, but this was a good opportunity to observe the combat capabilities of the Banking Supervision Guards at close range, so Ouyang Bian and the staff officer both followed behind to observe.

Ouyang Bian observed it very carefully.

He could not see too many deep-seated things, but he could understand whether the orders were implemented or not.

Under the command of their respective team leaders, the Banking Regulatory Commission advanced slowly. The soldiers looked calm and had a good arrangement between advancing and retreating.

The Zhe family of the Staff Office participated in the war personally, and his vision was even sharper, so he explained it to everyone.

"...Please see, with the command of the forward captain, the cavalry began to accelerate slowly, with the carriage half-hanging, and everyone was very skillful in movements. It can be seen that the training was very hard and fruitful;

It has only been more than half a year since the recruitment of personnel. The training time for cavalry is far from enough, but the effect now is equivalent to at least two years of training. There are three reasons for this result.

First, the source of troops is very excellent. Most of the sources of troops are from the north. They have experience in riding since childhood and have great physical fitness.

Second, the training time is very compact. Our Banking Supervision Guards' diet includes meat and food and food to fill. In this case, soldiers are durable in their bodies. The time for exercise training and equestrian training arranged by our staff office is intensive and compact, so that they have more time to train and are not afraid that their bodies cannot withstand it.

Third, the instructor system is really a great innovation. Because of teaching soldiers to read, soldiers' comprehension ability becomes stronger and their obedience becomes higher and higher. Therefore, this miracle occurs in more than half a year.

But this time is still too short, so you can see that although everyone is skillful, the movements cannot be uniform. If you encounter an experienced opponent, you can penetrate our cavalry through the gap and cause major casualties.

Moreover, our current cavalry can only attack in this way, and they do not have the ability to use more tactical skills and the ability to fight against the opponent immediately. Although it is enough to deal with bandits, if you want to fight against the regular army, you still have to practice more.

But the president is right. The Banking Regulatory Commission can first use sweeping bandits as a training process. In this process, it is forged into elite iron army soldiers and become an army that is prohibited from orders and can fight tough battles!"

Ouyang Bian nodded and stared at the front.

Dozens of cavalry threw out the hook sickle, which stuck the simple fence, and then the cavalry pulled the horses, and the simple fence was broken with a bang. The bandits squatting inside were immediately frightened and urinated.

The cavalry began a volley, shooting the bandits down one after another, and then the central army rushed in and used a saber to harvest the heads with condescending savages.

Lin Heita stood at a high place to watch, and his heart was filled with coldness.

From his perspective, the cavalry were covered in black and indifferent, like messengers from hell.

When they rushed, they didn't shout, unlike the yamen runners' messy calls and the seemingly mighty shouts of the squad.

They simply ordered, then executed, shot arrows, rushed in and harvested his head with a saber.

During this period, only the howling of war horses, while the cavalrymen were silent. Only the clear sound of breaking the wind and the sound of bowstrings and archery that they heard when waving the saber were the most terrifying.

I don’t know if I can be recruited?

This is Lin Heita’s idea at this time.

But he immediately gave up the idea because the military advisor who knew a few words around him told him that the words written on the flag were - the guardian of the Central Bank of the Song Dynasty.

The central bank is familiar with it. They are now eating and drinking, and the money they spend on their swords and gorgeous clothes on their bodies was stolen from the central bank last time, and they killed more than a dozen people in the central bank at that time.

So, are they here to take revenge this time?

"We all surrendered, are we?" suggested the Dog-headed Military Advisor.

"Can you surrender?" someone asked tremblingly.

The Dog-headed Military Advisor said: "Why can't it be? If you want to get an official, you will kill someone and set fire to get a fire. If you want to get a wealthy person, you will be rushing to sell wine and vinegar. As long as you get an official position, we may be able to get a job!"

"Is that so good? I didn't expect that Zhang Erniu would have a promising day, hahaha, then I'll be recruited!"

"Yes, yes, go and go to Zhao An. I didn't expect that my savage head would have a day when I would shine on my ancestors."

"Yes, you'll surrender quickly, the village master, what do you think...hey, where's the village master?"

...

Lin Heita waded through the mountains and rivers as if walking on flat ground, and he quietly left the whimsical country bumpkins.

It’s all the blame for those people. If he followed his method, he would not have caused such a big disaster.

In fact, they shouldn't have taken them in from the beginning and had a good foundation. Now they are collapsed as soon as they see them. If they don't leave, they will have to pay their lives.

"Hmph, this kind of stupid guy looks like those who kill without blinking. Those are the ones who come to recruit people, and they are all here to recruit souls!

Recruitment, haha, you have to beat them to cry and call them to mom. You will only come back to recruit you when you have no choice. Who will be able to cut off your head and ask for me? Is stupid!"

Lin Heita ran along the mountain road cursingly, and then was blocked by Di Youmu's Bailai Cavalry, and was stabbed to the ground by several long rifles and tied up.

Di Youmu came over to inquire and found out that this was Lin Heita, and couldn't help but say joyfully: "I didn't expect that great contributions would come from the sky. I'm really lucky this year. My mother is right. This year, I'm a snake three-way match, I deserve to be rich!"

The reward for 1,000 guan when catching Linheita!

Ouyang Bian looked indifferently at the corpses piled up like hills, prisoners trapped in pigs and sheep, and a large group of girls with some mental disorders.

Wang Shao came over and asked, "What should we do with these people?"

Ouyang Bian raised his eyelids and said, "Lin Heita has caught it?"

Wang Shao nodded: "The first culprit Lin Heita and several important accomplices have all been arrested."

Ouyang Bian nodded: "All the first culprits and accomplices must be killed. The others will be sent to Yuen Long County. The trial should be made, and the ones that should be sent home will be sent home. This is our work."

Wang Shao nodded.

Ouyang Bian ordered: "When you go back, remember to summarize. From soldiers to team leaders, from the instructor, you must write a summary report to summarize the gains and losses of this battle.

Logistical gains and losses, whether the strategy is formulated, and what compensation plans are made for gains and losses must be summarized after the war, so don’t make such mistakes next time.”

Wang Shao and Zhong Yi both nodded.

Ouyang Bian looked back at the girls again, sighed softly, and turned his horse's head to look at the sunset in the sky.
