Late into the night, Zhuang Yong was still thinking about Shen Leng’s words. What kind of person does that young man want to be? He had led the troops for so many years, and had encountered many young men with acute determination. However, most of them had high aspirations, but they lacked the strength and ability. They could only talk big.
Shen Leng was different. That fella had that kind of fortitude in his bones that astonished everyone.
With so much weighing on his mind, it was no wonder it was hard for him to sleep. It was not only because of Shen Leng. He was also concerned about the letter that was sent from the imperial court today. His Majesty was angry. He was very furious.
Great Ning was already almost invincible when it came to land combat. As for allegiance everywhere, it was a non-issue. However, the areas outside of the waters were a huge source of concern. Even a tiny country with a powerful navy could create trouble for Gr
Because the Navy needed to be expanded urgently, the new recruits’ camp would hold an evaluation test every month, ever since it was founded. They tried to select as many talents as possible to join the Navy, and get them familiarized with the battleship and drilled them with military tactics. The locally recruited children from poor families were very hardworking. That was because they knew that they did not have much opportunities that could allow them to change their lives. Ever since His Majesty announced that new recruits could attain the status as a military soldier if they got selected after the evaluation test, the new recruits became a lot more motivated. Disregarding everything else, just the fact that military families did not have to pay taxes alone was enough to fight hard for it. However, the number of new recruits who got selected to join the combat military force every month was very little. This was because Zhuang Yong was very strict - h
The day of the new recruits’ evaluation was not exactly a special day - no matter how much one flipped through the almanac, he would not be able to find any good omen. Before daybreak, there were already people who had gotten out of bed and headed to the competition grounds to perform the three kneelings and nine kowtows. To the combat soldiers, these people looked like clowns - they could not understand their intense desire to change their family’s situation. Naturally, performing the three kneelings and nine kowtows was not efficacious. Whenever this day arrived, the breakfast for the new recruits would be very sumptuous. The majority of them would wolf down their food in the hopes that eating more would contribute to greater strength, in preparation for the competition. After Shen Leng was about seventy percent full, he put down his bowl and chopsticks. Being seventy percent full was more than enough for him. Early in the mo
Zhuang Yong did not know how he managed to get persuaded by that fella. Was it just because he said he wanted to buy good tea leaves for Mr. Shen?He thought about the life Shen Xiaosong used to live, as compared to his current situation, where he was hard pressed for money because he had to raise two children. He had to even deliver vegetables for the kitchen here…even though on the surface, they used Cha Yan wanting to see Shen Leng as an excuse, it was evident that they used that excuse to conceal the fact that they did not have much money left.Zhuang Yong gestured at him. “Continue with your evaluation. We will discuss this matter again at a later time.”Shen Leng finally released his hands that were grasping tight. He bowed and said, “Thank you, general.”Zhuang Yong thought to himself: So in your eyes, I’m still a general?He shook his head and did not utter a single word. Shen Leng did not say anything else eit
After the bow and arrow test was over, a soldier went over and told Zhuang Yong that he had a visitor. Due to the fact that Mr. Shen had visited twice in the past, the soldier recognized him and was aware that he was a good friend of the general, hence he quickly made his way over to report to him. Zhuang Yong went back to his study and realized that Mr. Shen had already brewed himself some tea. He did not stand on ceremony at all. “Did you come here to thank me for sending someone over to buy your vegetables?”After Zhuang Yong sat down, he hinted to Mr. Shen to pour a cup of tea for him. However, Mr. Shen acted as if he could not bear to part with it, making Zhuang Yong second guess if the tea was even his in the first place. “I guessed that it was you.”Mr. Shen sipped his tea and leaned against the chair comfortably. “Even though the person who bought the vegetables had changed into casual clothes, the moment h
When Shen Leng returned to the barracks, the sky was starting to get dark. Shen Leng was not elated at all about the fact that he broke all the records of both segments, including more than ten items in total. In his eyes, it was not because he was that strong, but rather…the records were set at a standard that was too low. What made him happy however, was his black cord sword. Naturally, his scabbard was still his treasured object, but the black cord sword was his first official military weapon. It was probably going to accompany him on the battlefield for a long time. Yang Qibao ran over to congratulate him. He looked so excited to the point it seemed as though he was the one who broke the records instead. Shen Leng truly wanted to take Yang Qibao out for drinks and food but the discipline in the military was very strict. Without any special reasons, they were not allowed to leave the camp as they wished.Because of Shen Leng’s impressive
After Shen Leng got out of bed, he ran three rounds around the new recruits’ camp before he washed up and changed into the combat military uniform that he received yesterday. He did indeed look a lot more assertive than before. The new recruits’ uniform was rather ordinary when it came to workmanship and material used. Its color was not as robust as compared to the all-black combat military uniform. There were three uniforms in total for combat military - an all-black one, a dark blue one, and a black vest with a red cape, that was only worn during celebrations and large-scale exercises. Of course, it was a light cotton vest, and not a leather one. It looked nice, but it was not practical. In order to distinguish themselves from the other troops, there was a metal anchor design embroidered on the left side of the Navy uniform around the chest area. After he was about seventy percent full, Shen Leng rested for a while after eating. He followe
“Did you think that you’ve saved Du Weiming?”Zhuang Yong paced within the tent slowly. “You know that Du Weiming got bribed, so I’m sure you also know that he must die, without a doubt. The person who bribed him will not allow him to live in order to get rid of any evidence that could be traced back to him. From the moment that he acceded to his request, the safety of both him and his parents has already been compromised.”Shen Leng laughed cunningly, “General, since you already know about this so well, Du Weiming’s parents will surely escape death.”Zhuang Yong scoffed. Indeed, he did not like Mu Xiaofeng’s way of doing things. He was a ruthless person who implicated the innocent; he might not have great prospects in the future. More importantly, Mu Xiaofeng had put the favorable conditions he was born into to waste. He was too narrow-minded.“I had sent someone to Huaiyuan city, and have arranged to relocate his parents. You can
Mr. Shen said that a gentleman should be humble and modest most of the time. Shen Leng felt that he himself was a perfect person - for such humble words to come out of his mouth… The rest of the competition was nothing significant. In truth, even if the new recruits, who passed both segments, were to fight each other, there was nothing much to praise or admire. Compared to Shen Leng, they were way beneath him - not just a level beneath him; they were worlds apart. When the sky was about to be dark, Shen Leng walked into Zhuang Yong’s tent. He greeted the general with an exceptionally embarrassed smile. Zhuang Yong shook his head slightly. “Fake. Save it.”Hence, Shen Leng laughed, feeling pleased with himself.Zhuang Yong nodded his head. “Young man, allow yourself to be happy if you’re happy. Shen Leng replied, “It’s not good if you let yourself grow dizzy with success and get too carried away. After
Meng Changan with black eyes walked to the small courtyard where Shen Leng and Master Tea temporarily lived, and wanted to push the door to enter, but suddenly thought that when he was about to come in before he saw a drop of childish things, so he stopped, his face was a little difficult."Got to knock."Black eyes as if showing off some unearthly skill, "Don't you know it? To knock."Since he learned the knocking technique in the Wei village not far from the marine division camp in Anyang County, he has always felt great, and I don't know where the point of pride ...... is.Knock on the door and enter, right on the spot.About half an hour later, a pot of meat buns made by Shen Leng himself was placed on the table, Black Eyes reached out to grab it, and the small wooden stick in Master Tea's hand accurately hit his fingers, "Wash your hands!"Black Eyes: "Oh ......"He stood up to go wash his hands and said to himself, "Why does this feel
Regardless of whether the princess's request will be accepted by the talk of the nine states, there is a fact that the princess has to accept, the Tubo army of nearly 200,000 people ...... No food.Kill the horse can last about a week, if you save some food barely keep people can walk, can eat ten days, but this ten days without combat effectiveness to speak of the Tubo soldiers can let the Ning people to kill to the corpses, there is no power to fight back.Before coming to the Tubo people are still saying that the Ning people are only good bragging is actually a twolegged sheep to be slaughtered, after the fight only to understand that the Ning people if sheep, but also can be swallowed by tigers and wolves of the kind of sheep.Shi Zihai City, Shen Leng did not let their own people to participate in the army pursuit, at the time of the war, as a general of the Ning can not avoid the war, and then heartache of their own men must also take people to kill up, but a
If in any other place, any country, a war as the commander of the army of the great general but left the main battlefield, leisurely in the riverside waiting for a few days, will be scolded out of the bed, the Imperial Historical Office of those adults if they know, the zhang folds will be like snowflakes like flying to His Majesty's table, but in Daning will not be, and can not find any reasonable reason to explain, probably even the Imperial Historical Office of the The adults all felt that this was not a big deal.The adults of the Da Ning Imperial Historian's Office would seize on a general's private life, but would never just enlist a general who was leading a battle without any actual evidence or results, quite a bit of chivalry.Chang'an Night.The moon in the city of Chang'an is nothing special. Poets praise the moon in Chang'an as brighter, of course, because His Majesty the Emperor is in Chang'an.When the moon is full there will be a few poets in e
Lone Camel Mountain.There is a small river at the bottom of the mountain, no one knows what the name of the river is, this is Chechi Kingdom not Tufan, and here there are only Tufans, a group of Tufans who seem to have lost their pride and selfrespect, not to mention that no one cares about what the name of the river is, no one cares about what the people around them are called, and the team establishment is in complete disarray, with nearly two hundred thousand people, not many of them are still able to find a lot of familiar faces around them.The vast majority of the people sat in silence, conversation would show them the wretchedness and fear of each other.From loss of pride to loss of selfrespect may also be a person's journey from decadence to ruin.The river is shallow, the fish in the water have long been trampled muddy the bottom of the water horse hooves scared out of sight, this side of the people holding the water to drink, the other side of the
Shen Leng naturally refused to take his clothes off in front of Master Tea, that full of injuries if he let Master Tea see it, he did not know what to do, Master Tea is not a brutal and unreasonable person, never, but Master Tea this time really saw the battlefield how people kill each other, even though she has not yet opened her mouth, she is already looking for a chance to open her mouth.She hoped that Shen Leng would live well, and on the battlefield, swords were blind, and no one would be lucky for the rest of his life.But Shen Cooling can not give up, although Mr. Shen until now has not told him why he has to spell it out like this, but Mr. Shen told him that he must spell it out, Shen Cooling knows that Mr. Shen will never take his life to joke around, betting on it must be very big and big, because Mr. Shen is so so caring about him, caring about tea.Chang'an City.Baogi Palace, Mr. Shen after changing the medicine lying on the bed looking at the h
This battle was fought in a vast and magnificent, 300,000 threatened to take the Shannan Road within seven days of the Tubo army thousands of miles of land finally even Shi Zi Hai City this line has not been able to cross, not to mention cross, close to the not.At least 60,000 Tubo soldiers died in the chaotic battle, more than half of them were killed when their morale collapsed and retreated, even if it was when they were routed, their strength was still at least more than three times that of the Ning army.Le Qinqiao Mingtai was injured by the generals under the rescue all the way to the south southwest of the wild run, the road lost how many soldiers have been countless, from the stone sea outside the battlefield to one hundred and sixty miles away from the lonely camel mountain, more than two hundred thousand people are still left 180,000, tens of thousands of people either lost the direction of do not know what to run to the place, or simply do not dare to follow
Shen Leng cleaved Kuo Shan with a knife, seized Kuo Shan's horse and rushed forward to meet with his own team, and the team of more than one thousand people rushed towards the side of the large group of people of Tubo country, blatantly and fearlessly.The big banner on the opposite side indicated the identity of the other party, Shen Leng led his soldiers to charge straight towards the big banner, killing countless enemies along the way like a thorn in the side."Unbridled!"Caoge Mingtai was furious when he saw that very small number of Ning cavalry charging over, how could he endure such a disregard for him?In his horse next to a bear and a leopard, around the arm of the guards also stood a Haidongqing, broad brother Mingtai most like to hunt, this bear and a leopard are tamed by him, the most ferocious is that Haidongqing."Let go of the bear panther."At the order of Cuoge Mingtai, the beast tamers under his command immediately unlocked the
Tamuta is taller than Meng Chang'an by half a head, looking at that arm than Meng Chang'an's leg seems to be thicker, although he did not understand what Meng Chang'an said he big fork that sentence means, but thinking that after all is not what good words, so a knife toward Meng Chang'an's head cut down, the knife carries the wind might, the wind with the Running Thunder.When!Meng Changan actually didn't dodge again and still met him with a solid slash.This knife Meng Changan backward two steps, Tamuta also backward two steps, two people holding the knife's hand are some slight tremor, that kind of strength, if you split a horse, will be cut in two, split a monument, will also be cut in two ...... Favorably, chopping a person can not."There are two things."Tamuta fighting spirit, stride up a kick to Meng Chang'an's face, he is tall, this kick actually has a kind of whistling power, Meng Chang'an left foot moved back half a step, waist on the power
Often times, people outside of the Ninjas don't understand a lot of what the Ninjas decide to do.For example, the western frontier heavy armor general talk jiuzhou led 40,000 heavy armor to break the chechi capital city, and then like a high wall to stop the return of 300,000 tufan country's army, 40,000 to stop 300,000, and a kind of you're already surrounded aura, in addition to ningren no one will be able to understand.Where does the confidence come from to be reasonable?Shouldn't Tan Jiuzu sit in Shizihai City to take care of the big picture? He's a great general leading troops to block the road, who's in command?Now that the Land King was the biggest in Shizihai City, he was really eager to give it a try, yet he eventually held back.The great general talked about Jiuzhou rate of heavy armor around the road to attack the Chechi country before the explanation is not much, there are two sentences is probably the focus ......
