"I don't want to fight anymore, I don't want to fight anymore." Lin Wanrong jumped out of the ring with a smile. "General Li's martial arts are outstanding, I'm no match for you. I admire you, I admire you."
Li Wuling's martial arts were not bad, but compared to a semi-expert like him who had been on the battlefield, he was far inferior. Lin Wanrong fought with him for a few rounds, but did not fight back, letting him attack wildly to vent the impatience in his heart.
Although young, Li Wuling was very smart. He understood what was going on, and hurriedly stopped, a trace of gratitude flashing in his eyes. He cupped his fists and said, "General Lin, thank you!"
Lin Wanrong put his arm around his shoulder. "What are you thanking me for? Next time when you go fishing for lanterns, just remember to call me along. I still want to get to know more noble ladies! Speaking of which, a few days ago I was bullied while guessing lantern riddles, so I didn't report your name. It's really a loss. "
Li Wuling said, "Of course! In the capital, as long as you report my name, everyone has to give me some face. Those who dare to bully my Li family are not even born yet. "
Lin Wanrong laughed heartily. He had served in the army for generations and was famous throughout China. This kid indeed had the qualifications to be arrogant.
The two of them fought on the drill ground and had already attracted many people's attention. Xu Zhen saw the two of them chatting and laughing, and was very impressed. General Lin was like a magnet, no matter who came near him, they would uncontrollably get along with him.
After sending off Li Wuling, the little devil, with great difficulty, Lin Wanrong secretly bared his teeth and said, "This little bastard, he doesn't know how to control his strength. I was kind enough to let you have your way, but you, little brat, still chose to kick the weakest parts of my body." Although Li Wuling was young, he was somewhat barbaric. Today, I deliberately took a few blows from him, so that I could cultivate a fierce general for China, so my efforts were not in vain. Lin Wanrong comforted himself.
Saint Li, Du Xiuyuan, and Hu Bugui had already received Xu Zhen's report and were hiding in the distance to watch General Lin teach Li Wuling a lesson. Seeing that he was enduring the pain, they hurriedly walked over and wanted to laugh but had to suppress it.
Seeing the three people in front of him, Lin Wanrong cupped his fists and said with a smile, "Big Brothers, long time no see. Little Brother wishes all of you a happy new year. I wish everyone a happy and happy retirement. "
The several people burst into laughter, and the four of them shook hands. Hu Bugui said, "General Lin, we just saw the fierce battle between you and Li Wuling on the drill ground, it was really a fierce battle between a dragon and a tiger, a magnificent scene."
Lin Wanrong laughed it off. He had deliberately admitted defeat to Li Wuling, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it. These generals had killed countless enemies, so they could naturally see it. Everyone deliberately teased him, but it was because of the close friendship between the brothers that no one would argue.
"Brothers, how are you doing at Jinghua Academy? What new things have you learned? "Lin Wanrong said with a smile.
Hu Bugui shook his head and sighed. "I have hated the academy since I was a child, and the teachers who taught me how to read and write have changed countless times. I didn't expect to have to go back to the academy at this age, it is really unexpected."
Du Xiuyuan said, "That's true, the time you spent in the brothel is countless times longer than the time you spent in the academy. The academy naturally can't compare to the brothel. "Everyone burst into laughter. Hu Bugui blushed, but surprisingly did not refute.
Saint Li smiled and said to Lin Wanrong, "General Lin, you don't know. After Big Brother Hu came to the capital, he found a mistress in the brothel, and now they are glued to each other like glue, and are preparing money to redeem that sister! "
Sweat, so Old Hu likes this, it is comparable to Gao Qiu's liking for mature women. Hu Bugui was somewhat embarrassed, looking at Lin Wanrong, "General Lin, you also came to the academy to study? This is great. With your leadership, us brothers will learn well. When the Moon Empress heads to the frontlines, we will kill those barbarians until they piss their pants in terror. "
Lin Wanrong smiled and said, "Brother Hu, I'm here to send someone to the Academy today, not to study."
Du Xiuyuan asked, "General Lin, why is that? Marshal Xu has already prepared a letter of recommendation. As soon as you arrive, the tens of thousands of brothers of the Right Army will gather again. At that time, when he went to the battlefield and killed the Hu, he would be able to make great contributions. How can General Lin give up? "
Lin Wanrong smiled faintly and said, "Brothers, with my status, do these military and national affairs have anything to do with me?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was stunned. They had been recognized and promoted by Lin Wanrong. After the bloody battle, they had been promoted from the Head of Hundred Households to the Marquis of Ten Thousand Households in a short period of time. Their love and gratitude towards General Lin came from the bottom of their hearts. They had never thought about his identity. However, General Lin was different from them. He did not have a military status, and he had no interest in joining the army. That was why he had rejected Marshal Xu's kind intentions to ask for contributions for him several times. If he did not want to go, no one could force him. They had seen General Lin's courage with their own eyes, but they could not understand why he was so negative at this moment.
They looked at each other and did not know what to say. Lin Wanrong smiled and said, "I'm just a commoner with no great ambitions. I've never had extravagant hopes of making great contributions. It's good that everyone doesn't have too much hope for me."
They exchanged glances with each other. They had all seen General Lin's unique personality. He would usually laugh and mingle with people, but he would not go back on his word at crucial moments. To convince him, it would take time and opportunity. Perhaps they would have to wait for Xu Wei to make a move.
Hu Bugui and the others were here to further their studies, and they dragged Lin Wanrong to their academy to take a look. The military academy was very spacious, and there was a huge sand table in the middle. Lin Wanrong glanced at it, and was dumbfounded.
He saw that the roads, mountains, and rivers on the sand table were all made according to scale, and even the city towers were built according to the real city walls. It was unusually exquisite, and the height and length were extremely accurate. Compared to the military sand table that Lin Wanrong had seen in his previous life, this sand table was a bit crude. But in this cold weapon era, to have such thinking and innovation, and to put it into practice, was really a great achievement.
Du Xiuyuan saw Lin Wanrong's dazed expression, and said with a smile, "General Lin, what do you think?"
Lin Wanrong nodded, "Big brother Du, who built this sand table?"
Du Xiuyuan said with an envious expression, "General Lin, even if you don't believe it, it will still make us men blush with shame. This sand table was made by a female teacher in the academy. This female teacher is not only proficient in the four arts, but she is also very skilled in the art of war. It is said that Old General Li Tai often asks her for advice. This sand table was personally made by this female teacher after painstaking research, and when we first saw it, we were all very surprised. "
Li Sheng interrupted, "My Divine Arms Battalion's chain cages were also modified by this female teacher. The structure is smaller, but the power is greatly enhanced. Although we are men, we are also full of admiration for this lady. "
Female teacher! Sand table! Chain cages! Needless to say, it was obvious who it was. That girl is actually so capable? Damn it, should I take back my words? It's too difficult!
As they were talking, Li Wuling came over with a white-haired, dignified old man.
When Hu Bugui and the others saw this old man, their expressions turned cold, and they hurriedly cupped their fists and said respectfully, "Greetings, Old General Li!"
Old General Li? Could this be the legendary pillar of China, Li Tai? Lin Wanrong raised his head to take a glance, only to see that this old man had white hair and a white beard, his forehead and eyes were full of wrinkles, but his face was ruddy, full of energy, and he walked with large strides, full of vigor, and had a dignified temperament.
Li Wuling giggled and said, "Grandpa, this is the Lin San I told you about. He personally said that he has never heard of your great name. If you don't believe me, you can ask him. I am not lying."
Sweat, this kid has no conscience, I have played with you for so long. But you dragged my parents to take revenge on me. Lin Wanrong hurriedly cupped his fists, "This kind-looking, majestic person, could it be the legendary Old General Li Tai that the Hu people are terrified of?"
Li Tai looked at him up and down, then suddenly said, "You are the Lin San that Xu Wei mentioned? I see that you look ordinary, I can't tell what abilities you have, how did you lead the army to defeat the White Lotus? "
Lin Wanrong laughed, "What General Li said is correct, ability is not something that can be seen, and has nothing to do with appearance! That Pan An has peerless looks, but he is not comparable to Great General's copper muscles and iron bones, leopard's face and tiger's might, what use is there for him? "
Li Tai stroked his beard, smiling, "Comparing this old man to Pan An, only you can think of that. Let me ask you, what is the most important thing in an army? "
Lin Wanrong laughed, "Old General, can I not answer this question? This one's knowledge is shallow, even if I can answer, I am afraid it will not satisfy you. "
Li Tai's face stiffened, "If you want to answer then just answer, why do you have so much nonsense to say?"
This old man is really straightforward, Lin Wanrong wanted to say some flowery words, but was immediately seen through by Li Tai. Immediately thickening his face, he awkwardly laughed a few times, saying, "In an army, morality is the most important thing. Without morality, one will lose the morale of the army, only by caring for the soldiers, being lenient to others and strict with oneself, can one win over the hearts of the people, and the army will carry out smoothly. "
Li Tai smiled, "You really know how to generalize, but how to win over the hearts of the people is a great knowledge, tell me about it."
"This is simple." Lin Wanrong shamelessly said, "Eat, live and travel together, treat them like brothers, charge at the front, enjoy at the back, cherish the lives of your brothers, learn to escape!"
Hearing the last sentence, Hu Bugui and the others could not help but laugh, remembering the shocking words of General Lin when he was commanding the army in Chuzhou. Li Tai asked curiously, "Learn to escape? What do you mean? "
"Preserve your strength, don't make unnecessary sacrifices, learn to pull back your fist and then punch." Lin Wanrong said with a smile, "Sometimes, escaping is the only correct choice."
Li Tai did not comment, he glared at him, saying, "If you dare to say such words under my command, I will definitely deal with you first."
This Li Tai was a veteran of hundreds of battles, he had spent his entire life in the army, his glare was full of vigor. Hu Bugui and the others did not dare to speak, even the mischievous Li Wuling also quietened down. Lin Wanrong was not afraid of him, he said with a smile, "Even if General Li dealt with me, I will still do the same. General Li has to be responsible for the China, I have to be responsible for my brothers. Our starting point is different, so the way we deal with things is naturally different. "
Seeing that he was arguing with General Li, everyone was secretly anxious. Hu Bugui secretly pulled on his clothes, Lin Wanrong slightly shook his head. Li Tai suddenly smiled, "You are young, but you have some ideas, rare, rare! Xu Wei has repeatedly recommended you to me, seeing you today is indeed somewhat unexpected. How about this, you come to my camp, I will give you the position of general, if you have any ability, then use it. If you lead the soldiers well, I will promote you to commander, if you do not, then you can just pack up and leave! "
Hu Bugui and the others were overjoyed, so the reason why Li Tai was so strict, was because he had his eyes on General Lin. To go to General Li Tai's tent was the dream of countless soldiers in China, it signified that they would have outstanding military achievements and countless glory. Li Tai directly told General Lin to go to his tent to take the position of general, this showed how much he valued General Lin. Although it was not without Xu Wei's recommendation, but General Lin's performance also played a large part.
Du Xiuyuan saw that Lin Wanrong was in a daze, he quickly pulled him and said, "General Lin, General Lin — —"
"Oh?" Lin Wanrong sobered up a little, seeing that Li Tai was looking at him, he let out a bitter smile, "Thank you General Li for your kindness. It is just that I am shallow, I have no plans to join the army again, I am afraid that I have disappointed you. "
"What?" Li Tai snorted, "You are not willing to come? What, after becoming the commander of the right army of Xu Wei, you are not willing to be a general under my tent? Let me tell you, fighting the barbarians and exterminating the White Lotus are not the same thing, the barbarians are ten times more ferocious than the White Lotus, they are not something that a few bandits can compare to. "
Seeing that Li Tai's beard and hair were standing on end, Li Wuling quickly pulled his sleeve and said, "Lin San, it is rare for grandfather to think so highly of you, you should agree. You are recommended by me after all! "
Lin Wanrong did not know whether to laugh or cry, when did I become so popular, even the pillar of China wants to invite me to join the army, if I do not go, this old man will be extremely angry.
Lin Wanrong sternly said, "General Li, I have never been interested in the matters of the country, nor do I have the intention to join the army. This time I came to the capital, it is because I have something else to do! I hope that old general can forgive me! "
"Nonsense! The rise and fall of the country, every man has a responsibility, as a man, it is the right time to gallop across the plains, to accomplish great deeds, how can I be burdened by trifling matters? What matter is more important than the safety of our China? "Li Tai angrily said.
How could Lin Wanrong have the nerve to say that because he wanted to find a wife, he could not join the army? He knew his own situation, the last time he was dragged by Xu Wei to exterminate the White Lotus, the successive victories were purely accidental. This time, going to the frontlines to fight the barbarians was not like the extermination of the White Lotus, ten against one, this was a life and death battle, there was not the slightest possibility of taking advantage of the situation. If he died in battle, it would be fine, at most there would be a few more widows in the world, but if he implicated his brothers, a hundred deaths would not be enough to atone for his crimes.
No one understood his feelings, looking at Lin Wanrong firmly shaking his head, Li Tai was greatly disappointed and sighed, "Xu Wei's foresight has always been unique, it is just that this time, he also lost his accuracy. What a pity, what a pity! "
