Chapter 156: Chongying
Chen Zhengtai found that Xue Li was a little bit 2.
Of course... I was probably the same when I was at his age.
Although he came to the Tang Dynasty, he was still very young. It’s a pity that he was a human being for two lifetimes and his state of mind was already very experienced.
Young people like this will definitely suffer a lot.
Chen Zhengtai shook his head with emotion and soon returned to Li Shimin's side.
Li Shimin just looked at the military horses of various battalions and rated them with the generals.
When he saw Chen Zhengtai go and relapse, he thought he was just going to Xiaojie. He glanced at him and then said, "Everyone has had lunch and is hunting with me. The quality of these battalions is of varying quality. Although the army is a little more neat, it is less energetic when I was leading the army."
Qin Qiong nodded from the side: "What Your Majesty said is that these military and horses were all fought on the battlefield. In the past few years, there will inevitably be some abandonment."
Li Shimin thought about it and immediately said to Chen Zhengtai: "Zhengtai, do you know where the problem with your Erpigou Cavalry Camp is?"
"Students don't know this." Chen Zhengtai said modestly.
Li Shimin smiled and said, "Then let Cheng Qing family teach you, Cheng Qing family, you can say."
Cheng Yaojin smiled and said, "It's because he said the most, and he was very cautious, like Qin Qiong, Li Jing and others.
At this time, Cheng Yaojin's eyes suddenly widened, looked straight at Chen Zhengtai and said, "Boy..."
He shouted loudly at first, and looked like he was scolding.
All the generals laughed.
This is not a normal day, it is in the army. In everyone's opinion... Since Chen Zhengtai has come to the army, he is a rookie among the rookies.
Don’t say you are a kid, even if you scold you, you have to respond obediently.
Li Shimin couldn't help but smile. He was looking forward to Cheng Yaojin scolding Chen Zhengtai.
Since you are my disciple, you should know what the rules are in this army, how to know the soldiers and generals, there are rules here!
If you can't integrate into it, then... no one in the army will be convinced by you, and no one cares about you.
This is by no means a general, a title of a county duke, or a qualification of a disciple of the emperor, which can make people convinced you.
Although he had long been used to Cheng Yaojin's temperament, Chen Zhengtai still looked speechless and said, "I'm so humble."
Cheng Yaojin then looked terrified and continued, "Do you know why you call me boy?"
Chen Zhengtai shook his head: "I don't know."
Cheng Yaojin said excitedly: "This is because you are just a boy who knows nothing. Here, it is different from outside. Where is the army? Look at how many people are here, do you know that if these people are brought to the battlefield, then... the lives of countless people will be held in the general's hands?"
"A general's thought will determine the life and death of thousands of people. What is this? This is life-and-life, so... the way for generals is to believe in you first, and to respect you and fear you. If everyone doesn't believe it, you can lead everyone to survive. Who would be willing to work for you? If no one respects you, on this messy and bloody battlefield, do you really think you are driving these people who put their lives on their belts?"
After Cheng Yaojin said that, he slapped Chen Zhengtai hard on the shoulder. Chen Zhengtai suddenly felt that Taishan was pressing on the top, and almost thought that his shoulder was about to break, so he grinned.
When Cheng Yaojin saw Chen Zhengtai grinning and grinning, he scolded again: "Look at you, your emotions are in the face of joy and anger, and others can see through you at a glance. If the thief army comes in a vast way, with your appearance, the soldiers will be timid before they fight."
"Also, your shoulders are soft, and you must be used to being lazy all day long. You have to fight. Fighting well is not to let you fight. You are a general, but you don't have to do it yourself. But... this fight is just a matter of a moment, at most a few hours, or even a few incense sticks, and a battle may end. It's just that before the battle, you need to lead troops to fight thousands of miles. Most of the time, you are going to go back and forth, sleeping in the wilderness, or chasing with the thief repeatedly. If you are not in good health, you will only be hungry for a few meals, a small injury, or sleeping in the open for a few days, your body will not be able to bear it."
"You are already angry before you see your enemy. What's the use of this? Look at Your Majesty... you are covered in flesh. Look at me, look at you, which of your uncles don't have a copper-skinned iron bone? Look at you, you are soft and thin, just like you, who can't believe you can fight thousands of miles away?"
Chen Zhengtai's face was dull. It turned out that this was his mentor and someone who was working together to give him a warning.
He didn't show off his pleasure for a moment, so he argued with Cheng Yaojin, and just nodded obediently and said, "Yes, yes."
Cheng Yaojin continued to scold, "Don't say yes, you should speak in a good manner. Damn, look at you, like a woman. I have long seen that you are uncomfortable, so you should speak loudly."
"And... Look at your cavalry mansion, you must have a backbone. Do you know what a backbone is? You are a general. What the general needs to do is to select capable subordinates. Just say, my other nephew, Liu Hu, the cavalry general of Fufeng County. Did you look at his camp? Why can he be covered in everything and the soldiers can perform their own duties? It is because he has other generals, chief ministers, military officials, and military officials. These are his backbone!"
"He still needs to have prestige. With a command, these generals can obey his orders and go through fire and water! No generals, soldiers and soldiers have chosen them, and they can command the commander of the regiment. The commander will restrain the team and the chief of fire. In this way... the command is like one thousand, two hundred people, like the arm and finger. Look at you again, you can't even manage fifty people well. What's the use of you?"
"I have no selfless grudge against you. The reason why I taught you a lesson is that you are itchy and you have to come to this army. Since you are here, you must teach you a lesson, so as not to become a joke. You are the disciple of the emperor, how can you lose your majesty's majesty? When you are hunting in the afternoon, follow me and I will take you to fight a tiger."
This is not just a scolding. Chen Zhengtai felt that he was being scolded so much that he was just a little confused.
But when he heard that Cheng Yaojin was going to fight the tiger, he couldn't help but feel speechless and hurriedly said, "This... this... I have agreed to my mentor and follow him to fight the rabbit in the afternoon."
Li Shimin was standing aside and smiling at Cheng Yaojin teaching Chen Zhengtai a lesson.
But when he heard Chen Zhengtai say he was going to beat the rabbit and pulled himself in, he pulled his face and wanted to interrupt Chen Zhengtai and clarify the facts, but then he chose to remain silent.
Cheng Yaojin glared at his eyes and said angrily: "Your Majesty will give you a temporary care for me. I said that if you hit a tiger, you will be hit by a tiger. Even if your Majesty has pleaded with love, it is useless for a man to beat a rabbit, why not be a lowly person?"
Chen Zhengtai said in his heart that this cannot be said like this. In later generations, a certain saint emperor was famous all over the world for beating rabbits. How could he be said to be a lowly person?
He simply didn't say anything. Anyway, he ignored anything he said now, so he just followed Cheng Yaojin's reprimand.
Everyone else was there, looking at it with a smile, wanting to see how Cheng Yaojin trained Chen Zhengtai.

Xue Li ran down the mountain excitedly and arrived at the camp of Erpigou Cavalry Mansion. Before he could get close to the camp, he heard Su Lie's roar: "Didn't you eat? Look at your appearance, you have stood up straight for me, Your Majesty is still reading..."
When Su Lie saw Xue Lilai, he stepped forward: "What's wrong? Didn't you let your guard be by General Chen? Why are you here?"
"General Chen has been insulted." Xue Li said angrily: "I saw it with my own eyes. General Chen was furious and told me that we wanted us to avenge General Chen."
Su Lie was shocked and a little unbelievable: "Isn't he by His Majesty's side? Who dares to insult him? Don't talk nonsense."
"How dare I talk nonsense? General Chen specifically told me to avenge him." Xue Li swears.
Su Lie still felt a little incredible, and then asked: "Who is the enemy?"
"Fufeng County's Cavalry Mansion is up and down."
Su Lie was dumbfounded: "So many people insult him?"
Xue Li said indignantly: "Yes, I can't understand either, but if you think about it carefully, General Chen is a strong man and is prone to offend people. It may not be impossible to be insulted by them."
Su Lie's face was gloomy.
The army is different from outside. If you are insulted by others, you must fight back. Otherwise, you will be looked down upon.
He gritted his teeth and said, "What do you say to General Chen?"
Xue Li said seriously: "General Chen said, let you and me beat the damn cavalry mansion of Fufeng County to vent his anger."
"You and I?" Su Lie was a little confused, as if General Chen looked down on him a little too much.
"What, you dare not?" Xue Li glared at Su Lie.
Su Lie held his chin and said, "I'll go up the mountain and ask General Chen."
"I'm just asking, General Chen has lost all his face. If you ask again, he will bite his tongue in shame and anger." Xue Li said angrily: "What I heard with my own ears is fake? Lao Su, do you dare not? If you don't dare, I will just put on my robbers now and will not beat these dog thieves who bullied General Chen to the ground for their teeth. I'll be considered a waste of General Chen's favor."
As he said that, Xue Li whispered and wanted to find his horse.
Su Lie was shocked and hurriedly grabbed Xue Li: "Hey, hey... who said he couldn't go? It's just... There are 1,200 soldiers in Fufeng County. Even if you take revenge, you should not do it. You must have a rule. Follow me, let's see where their camp is and observe the terrain."
Xue Li was so excited at this moment that he raised his eyebrows and muttered, "What are you afraid of? You are just rushing to the camp. I am the best at this. When I was in Hedong... I always chased dozens or hundreds of people and beat them. This is what I compare to. I am not bragging, no one in the world is more courageous than me."
