Chapter 194 Look how scared the army doctor is!
The entire Yunzhou City was filled with a joyful atmosphere.
Children were running and jumping on the street, laughing happily, while older children were using firecrackers to scare the younger children.
Only when the child was scared to tears and his face was covered with tears and snot did he stop laughing and run away.
The child's parents were so angry that they cursed and touched their child's head to comfort him.
From New Year's Eve to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, you can hear the sound of firecrackers almost every day.
It is said that firecrackers can drive away evil spirits.
The people of Yunzhou City seem to want to drive away all the evil and bad luck of the year in order to pray for good weather, peace of mind and no disasters in the coming year.
But the military camp seemed much duller.
They only had some fun on New Year's Eve and the first day of the New Year, and then resumed their usual training.
Especially those new recruits who are weak and cannot adapt to their high-intensity training at all.
Xiao Ning could only reduce the intensity of their training and instead strengthen their coordination training.
After all, time waits for no one. They don't have time for more advanced training and can only make up for it from other places.
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month passed quickly.
When the weather warmed up, Xiao Ning reorganized his troops and set out again to quell the rebellion.
But this time, the 7,000 soldiers and horses became 30,000 soldiers and horses, and they looked mighty and powerful, and finally had some form.
Zhang Yuanzheng was leaving the city to see him off, and he was terrified when he saw this scene.
What are your Highness and the Prince Consort planning to do...
This army is several times more than 5,000, yet they have not yet submitted a letter to Your Majesty...
Zhang Yuanzheng watched the huge team disappear from his sight before turning around and returning to Yunzhou City.
He has to build Yunzhou City well to prove his worth.
…
Xiao Ning and his men were still the same. When they encountered bandits on the road, they took care of them. Those who could be reformed were recruited, and those who could not be reformed were sent back to their hometowns.
When encountering an occupied city, they would recapture it. The same approach would be used to treat rebels: those who could be recruited would be recruited, and those who could not be recruited would be killed.
Thanks to the growing strength of the Xiao family army, Xiao Ning became more and more adept at deploying troops.
All their property and food supplies were confiscated, so the court's food and supplies were delayed in arriving, and Xiao Ning didn't even say a word.
After all, they have plenty of food and supplies.
Moreover, she felt embarrassed for using the emperor's things and then hitting others.
If she met military governors from various prefectures and counties along the way, Xiao Ning would order people to take the imperial edict from the emperor and enter the city to greet them politely. However, if the other party was shameless, she also knew a little bit of fighting skills.
However, the troops led by the governor are regular troops after all, and are much more difficult to deal with than a group of ragtag troops.
Xiao Ning would not start a fight rashly.
She sent people to gather information and understand the defenses in the city, and from time to time she sent small groups of troops to harass the enemy and familiarize herself with their military habits.
When he understood everything thoroughly, he would act decisively and kill the enemy with one blow!
In the blink of an eye, spring goes and autumn comes, and another year has passed.
It was midsummer.
"General, the heat is unbearable. Why don't we set up camp first? The soldiers are exhausted. Fortunately, this place has a good terrain and is easy to defend but difficult to attack."
Li Yuan approached Xiao Ning and said.
Xiao Ning glanced back at the soldiers and nodded, "Li Yuan, plan the outposts and have them stand guard according to the previously drawn up roster."
"yes."
Li Yuan retreated in response.
"Soldiers, set up camp!"
After such a long journey, the soldiers were already exhausted. Upon hearing what Li Yuan said, some joy finally appeared in their eyes, and they immediately set up camp according to Li Yuan's request.
Set up the tent and take a rest!
Everyone worked diligently on their tasks.
Xiao Ning stood on a high place, squinting his eyes and looking into the distance.
There were footsteps approaching.
"What are you looking at?"
It was Shen Zhiyi’s voice.
Xiao Ning didn't look back, "Let's see how many days it will take to reach Jinzhou."
Shen Zhiyi stood shoulder to shoulder with her, looking at the vague city surrounded by mountains in the distance, and said: “Such a natural barrier is not easy to fight.”
Xiao Ning said: "There will always be loopholes. There is no battle that my Xiao family army cannot win!"
Shen Zhiyi tilted his head and glanced at her.
The young general is always confident and outspoken, and never afraid of difficulties or obstacles.
Since leaving Beijing that year, they have been fighting for almost two years, dozens of battles large and small, but have never been defeated.
Xiao Yanqing is a natural born general.
Unfortunately, she was always unpleasant to him. He had tried to win her over for two years, but even if he humbled himself, it was all in vain.
Occasionally she would look at him with that same lustful expression she had before.
Sometimes he even has the idea of seducing someone...
When this idea first came out, Shen Zhiyi was really scared.
He will be the emperor in the future, how can he sacrifice his looks just to win over a minister...
But this person won't listen to any persuasion.
If she said she liked him, she wouldn't even give him a good face. If she said she didn't like him, she would stare at him with a lustful expression from time to time.
Finally, Shen Zhiyi concluded that this person clearly separated private and public affairs.
If that's the case, when they find out that he is the late emperor's son, will they switch sides and pledge allegiance to him?
Just like the late emperor and General Zhenbei...
Xiao Ning didn't stand on the top of the mountain for long before going down.
The sun shines on my skin, and it feels like a burning sting. The weeds on the roadside have curled leaves and look wilted.
I'm afraid there will be another severe drought this year.
Xiao Ning wanted to try to draw a blueprint of a waterwheel so that he could divert river water for irrigation.
But she had been so focused on fighting during the last nine years of the apocalypse that she had forgotten many things.
While Xiao Ning was trying hard to sort out the things in his mind and thinking about the general shape of the waterwheel, he unknowingly walked to the river at the foot of the mountain.
"Army doctor, are you a man? I just invited you to take a shower in the river, why are you so grumpy?"
"I'm not hot."
Xu Chong's noisy voice reached Xiao Ning's ears from a long distance away.
Then came Lu Li's low, hoarse male voice.
"You're kidding me! Aren't you hot and smell of sweat? You look clean, why are you so dirty?"
"Wait, do you look down on me?"
"General Xu misunderstood."
Xu Chong is skilled in martial arts and has a fierce temper. He is very decisive in fighting and has made many military achievements in the past two years. Xiao Ning promoted him to vanguard general last year. He led a team of vanguard soldiers and always rushed to the front line in every battle.
"Since there's no misunderstanding, then come with us into the water to cool off!"
"That's right, Army Doctor. You're so young, don't learn from those old men!"
"Brothers should be neat and tidy!"
"I, I can't swim. I'm afraid of water..."
Lu Li was so nervous that his voice became tense.
"What are you afraid of? Don't worry, with so many brothers like us, how can we not protect you?"
Xiao Ning walked closer quickly and saw Xu Chong, with his upper body naked, pulling Lu Li and trying to jump into the water.
Lu Li stuck his butt out and tried to back away, but Xu Chong still dragged him towards the river like a chicken.
A group of shirtless men were splashing in the water and laughing loudly.
"Look how scared the army doctor is, hahahaha..."
Xiao Ning stepped forward, grabbed Lu Li who was almost dragged into the water, then raised his foot and kicked Xu Chong into the water.
“Crash—”
Heavy objects falling into the water create huge splashes.
"Who kicked my ass?"
