Chapter 54 Child Army
Swish...
All the veterans turned pale after being rebuked.
They all lowered their heads, unsure how to refute.
wrong.
They probably didn't have the face to refute it.
They themselves know why they have fallen to this state.
Wei Shuyu's words not only stunned the veteran, but also intimidated the dozen or so troublesome soldiers.
They would never have imagined it.
A kid who was only ten years old was able to silence these veterans who even Qin Shuai found troublesome.
"You have shed blood for the Tang Dynasty. You can be proud, but you should not be arrogant!"
"The military camp is such a serious place. If new recruits come in and learn from you one by one, how can the officers and soldiers lead the troops? How can they issue orders?"
"They dawdle over even the most basic act of lining up, need to be supervised to maintain proper posture, and don't even understand the most basic respect for their superiors..."
"I have a question."
"Are you still soldiers?"
"What general would want soldiers like you?"
"If I don't send trash like you to play with a kid like me, do you expect me to send the elite troops of the Tang Dynasty to play with me?"
"Yes, I am a child!"
"But similarly..."
"I am still your superior!"
"As soldiers, obeying military orders is your bounden duty!"
"I'll say it again: whatever grievances you may have, you can go to Commander Qin or anyone else and apply for a transfer when you have some free time!"
"But now, you are my soldiers!"
"My soldiers must obey my orders completely and unconditionally."
After saying this, Wei Shuyu turned to look at the ten troublemakers...
"I'll give you one more chance. Line up again."
"If you still can't stand properly this time, everyone will be given thirty strokes of the cane and then sent home!"
Suddenly, as if remembering something, Wei Shuyu added a few more words to the veterans…
"Don't think you're so important, and don't assume you have many people protecting you."
"I'll get rid of you parasites, and maybe others will even thank me in their hearts..."
The sun is blazing overhead; it's summer again.
Wei Shuyu was already drenched in sweat.
His voice was slightly hoarse from shouting and lecturing for a long time.
But he seemed oblivious to all of this, simply watching them quietly.
"First team, line up!"
"Second team, line up!"
"Team Three..."
The ten troublemakers shouted in unison.
When they were appointed as squad leaders, their squads were already assigned numbers!
The veterans looked at their scars and thought about their current status.
A deep sorrow welled up in my heart.
Wei Shuyu's words shattered their pride completely.
He fought wars his whole life and got nothing in return.
He was just a parasite pitied by Li Shimin.
Is it ridiculous?
It's really quite ridiculous.
The veterans chuckled self-deprecatingly...
Upon hearing the troublesome soldier's answer, they instinctively stood in line.
"Young General, all soldiers have assembled!"
The team leader shouted sternly.
"good."
Wei Shuyu nodded: "Next time, you must shout 'Report!' before speaking!"
"yes!"
Wei Shuyu continued the military review...
Although many people are not standing correctly, it's much better than before.
Wei Shuyu moved through the ranks, correcting the posture of each person.
He kept lecturing her...
"I know many of you disagree with me, but that doesn't matter!"
"I know many of you are unwilling to accept this, but that doesn't matter!"
"I know many of you are feeling very upset, but that's not important!"
"You just need to figure out the most important thing... where you should go from here in the future?"
"You're all veterans, how many more years can you fight?"
"Now let's imagine, ten years from now, the world is at peace..."
"How will you live when there are no wars to fight in the world?"
"What did you do when you were injured and sick, and had no money for medicine or food?"
"Are you suggesting we go and beg your old brothers to give you some charity or help?"
"They are not your parents."
"I'll take care of you while you're in the military, and I'll still have to take care of you after you leave the military?"
"I won't say anything more..."
"If they were capable of listening, they should have listened a long time ago."
"She won't listen; no matter what I say, it's useless!"
"Now I'll give you an hour to think quietly about what to do next."
"Remember, thinking is one thing, but maintaining military posture is crucial!"
After saying that, Wei Shuyu stood in front of everyone, head held high and chest out, standing in a standard military posture.
"Remains, shouting 'So true!'"
Under a shady awning, Choi Shin-ki and Bang Yi-ae were munching on a cold melon, watching with great interest.
(Don't ask, the servant who accompanied them brought it.)
"Yes, Big Brother's aura is too powerful."
As Fang Yi'ai spoke, he spat out a few melon seeds.
"Your voice is hoarse from shouting, do you want to give me a melon?" Choi Shin-ki looked at the half-eaten melon beside him.
"Yes, yes."
The two rascals picked up the cold melon and ran up to it with great enthusiasm.
"Hah! Let's eat some cold melon!" Choi Shin-ki roared.
Swish...
Wei Shuyu's sharp gaze swept over them, and the two stopped abruptly.
The serious Wei Shuyu was truly terrifying.
A single glance was enough to terrify the two of them.
"Here's half a cold melon. Whoever stands at the most steady and perfect military posture gets to eat it!"
Wei Shuyu shouted to the soldiers.
He turned his head and looked at the two of them again, a smile curving his lips.
"Since you two are here, you can stand together."
ah?
The two of them stared wide-eyed.
Does this count as walking into a trap?
"Hah! I'm dizzy from the sun!"
"Brother, you don't know, I've had a problem since I was a child that I can't stand for long periods of time."
The two men's faces were full of resistance.
"Yeah?"
Wei Shuyu gripped his military baton and struck the two men's feet.
Swish...
The two of them immediately straightened up.
"Hmph, I can firmly decline."
"Brother, I will overcome this illness!"
Wei Shuyu nodded and stood proudly once more.
Despite his small stature, his military posture was more perfect than anyone else's.
The two guys, who had just started practicing military posture, couldn't hold it for long before their legs began to tremble.
Choi Shin-ki was even worse.
Her body was already weaker than Fang Yi'ai's, and she was holding half a cold melon in her arms. She looked so aggrieved, as if she had been abused a thousand times.
Wei Shuyu did not demand that the two freight stations meet high standards.
But as soon as the two dared to squat down, he would immediately whack them on the buttocks with a stick.
Under Wei Shuyu's tyrannical power, the two stood there with tears in their eyes.
Half an hour later, the soldiers, who were experiencing formal military posture for the first time, also began to tremble and could not bear it.
Wei Shuyu was not so lenient with them.
Anyone who dares to slack off even slightly will be struck with a stick!
"You can't even stand at attention, and you call yourselves brave?"
"See those two guys in front of you?" Wei Shuyu pointed at Cui Shenji and Fang Yi'ai.
"Both children are persevering."
"Are you even inferior to them?"
"If anyone can't hold on any longer, don't force yourself to. Tell me, and I can let you rest..."
"In addition, I will have someone pack your luggage and send you out of the military camp."
"This is not a place for cowards!"
Wei Shuyu's words seemed to ignite the passion in everyone, and they straightened their backs even more.
Wei Shuyu nodded in satisfaction.
We're not afraid of veterans lacking combat effectiveness, we're afraid of soldiers lacking fighting spirit!
As long as their fighting spirit remains, even if they are crippled or disabled, they will still be the bravest soldiers on the battlefield!
"Dinner's ready..."
Just then, the voice of a cook came from afar.
Then, one by one, the soldiers passed by their training ground.
Seeing them still standing there blankly, a burst of laughter rang out.
"Isn't this troublemaker Feng Fang? He's been punished again? Haha..."
"And these veterans, weren't you guys usually so eager to grab food? Why aren't you doing it anymore? Haha..."
"Look, the leaders are three little brats."
"You don't know yet, do you? I heard that General Cheng's second son is going to have a battle against a hundred-man army. I guess they are the ones who will be fighting."
"I just saw that Young Master Cheng is leading General Cheng's elite Tiger Warriors. Are they going to fight this bunch of rabble?"
"What rabble? These troublemakers are all ruthless and fierce."
"He's pretty fierce, but he only acts like a bully in the military. He wags his tail and begs for mercy when he encounters the sons of powerful and wealthy people. Bah..."
"The leaders are three kids; I think we should call them the Kids Army."
"Not bad, not bad, the Tiger Legion versus the Child Army!"
"Ha ha……"
