The First to Fifth Army of the Imperial Guards were born from the Fifth Battalion of the Supervisors. They were Zhao Bing's starting troops and his basic cadre. They continued to expand from the five battalions to become the main force of the current Song army, and the troops separated from these five battalions also became the backbone of other units. Although Zhao Bing did not divide the entire army into clearly hierarchical upper and lower armies, they were recognized as the Imperial Guards.

Since Chen Fenglin served as the commander of the front battalion of the General's Mansion, to the First Division Commander and the First Army Commander, he has always been the leader of all generals. Of course, he has also undertaken the most arduous tasks in all wars and has made countless military achievements. Zhao Bing has always been very eye-catching to him and has never been stingy with rewards.

Because he was given high hopes, Chen Fenglin was defeated in the first drill during the school review. How could he not disappoint and annoy Zhao Bing? Of course, he came this time to sound the alarm and find faults. With Chen Fenglin's prestige in the army, he was also the unlucky chicken that killed the chicken and scared the monkey.

All the generals in the tent experienced the darkest period of the Song Dynasty with the little emperor. They can be said to be confidant. They can usually hold their arms around him, drink and eat meat, and talk about family matters, but once they get rid of their faces, they are also brave. Now the emperor has grown up and has full control over the court, and his power is even more powerful. The turtle's aura is enough to shock them.

Now the emperor is getting angry. The atmosphere in the tent is tense for a moment, as if the air has solidified. The generals are also afraid of being ashamed of the cicadas, and they dare not show their anger. They secretly see His Majesty's frowning and his face is stretched, and no one dares to speak out. And they are also unsure. Who knows who the next unlucky guy is?

"Your Majesty, why are you so angry? I heard it outside the tent." Just as everyone was worried, the door of the tent opened and someone said with a smile.

"I am paying homage to the Empress, Thousand Years, Thousand Years, Thousand Years!" Everyone in the tent immediately stood up and saluted.

"You don't have to be too polite to me!" Wu Xi stepped forward and raised his hand and said.

"I am discussing the matter, how did the queen be born here?" Zhao Bing said a little unhappy.

"Your Majesty, the generals have just arrived here. They practiced for a night last night. The breakfast has not been used yet. I ordered people to make some food to relieve their hunger and thirst for your Majesty and the generals!" Wu Xiliu bowed and bowed to the emperor and said.

"It's such a nonsense..." Zhao Bing frowned and whispered in a low voice.

"I'm grateful to Empress, I'm already hungry!" Zhao Mengjin thanked loudly in the first voice.

"Thank you for the meal..." Everyone didn't know what it meant and echoed loudly.

"Your Majesty, as the saying goes, 'The emperor still won't send hungry soldiers'. From yesterday to the present, all the generals have not yet entered." Jiang Jin was also on the sidelines.

"That's right, the death row prisoner must give him a full meal before he was sentenced. If you are wrong, your Majesty must be killed and punished. Let me wait until you have enough food!" Chen Fenglin bowed to the emperor with his fists.

"Your skin is getting thicker and thicker as you get, and your heart is getting bigger and bigger. You can still have a meal if you are so defeated last night!" Zhao Bing was angry and pointed at him.

"Your Majesty once said: The sky is great and the earth is great, and the food is the greatest. I always keep it in mind and dare not forget it!" Chen Fenglin said with a smile.

"Even if Your Majesty is not hungry, you must be polite to the generals and the soldiers outside the tent!" Wu Xi advised with a smile.

"Okay, good... to eat!" Zhao Bing waved helplessly when he saw this.

The emperor nodded, and Wu Xi smiled and waved to the little yellow sects who had been waiting outside the tent to deliver breakfast. Although the meal came from the imperial kitchen, it was just buns, pancakes, a large pot of soup and a few side dishes to accompany the food. "Because Your Majesty's meals have always been crude and time is in a hurry, please forgive me!" The food was placed on a long table, and Wu Xi personally served the soup to the emperor, and turned around and said a little apologizing to everyone.

"How dare you, thank you!" Everyone politely said again.

"Don't need too much politeness, everyone will do it themselves, I won't disturb the discussion!" Wu Xi nodded and smiled, then bowed to His Majesty again before leaving the tent.

"You sit down and eat too. Are you still waiting for me to move a chair for you?" Zhao Bing looked sideways and saw Chen Fenglin standing with a bowl of soup in one hand and holding a pancake in the other hand. He was not so angry.

"Thank you for your seat!" Chen Fenglin smiled and thanked him, hooked the chair with his feet and sat down.

Everyone in the tent was not a military general, but was also a military general. Everyone knew that they would quit words when eating, so there were only the "gurgling" sounds and swallowing sounds of drinking soup. Zhao Bing thought while eating. In fact, today he scolded Chen Fenglin seriously and was also annoyed that his defense was lax and defeated, but his words were too harsh, which scared everyone to plead, which made him feel a little difficult to make him feel.

Chen Fenglin was a brave general in the army. He had prestige and loyalty in the court and the army. Naturally, Zhao Bing could not dismiss him because of a failure in an exercise, but he could not stop him from splashing water, and he could not speak out. At this dilemma, Wu Xi entered the tent and delivered food to him, so he could not let him go.

However, Zhao Bing would never think that this was accidental. With Chen Shu's understanding of military relations and Wu Xi's wisdom, it is not difficult to think of his embarrassing situation. He took the opportunity to get himself out of the predicament, and at the same time defeated the rumor that the rumor of "the emperor and the empress are incompatible" that was rumored by the government and the country. It was a killing two birds with one stone...

After the meal, he took a break. Zhao Bing ordered the troops to rest for two days, but these military generals were not so lucky and had to continue to stay in the account to summarize their experience. This time, the school review did not report, did not inform the drill subjects, and did not designate troops. Instead, he used the temporary sudden transfer method. It was a test in itself to ask them to arrive at the specified location within the specified time without any preparation in advance. The subsequent infantry and cavalry confrontation was also a test for their training results at this stage.

Therefore, Zhao Bing had already expected that at the beginning of this review, someone would make mistakes and make trouble. He was not afraid of problems. Only by discovering problems can he solve problems better, and in this way he could avoid making mistakes in actual combat. In this way, the generals could only wait for scolding the emperor who was deliberately looking for trouble.

After Chen Fenglin, the third army commander Zhuang Siqi was scolded. He began to feel very wronged. After receiving the order from the Privy Council, he immediately gathered the team and set off. At an average daily marching speed of 80 miles, he traveled from Yancheng nearly one day in advance to the scheduled exercise area.

Then, despite the fatigue of the long-distance marching, Zhuang Siqi commanded his subordinate troops to build camps, dug trenches according to the standards, built walls of villages, and arranged the Corsair Corners. He also sent scouts to lie secretly outside the camp, sent scouts to cruise around, search, and sent 30% of the troops on duty in accordance with the regulations to prevent night attacks.

Therefore, when the "enemy cavalry" attacked at night, the third army was ready. The cruising reconnaissance cavalry was showing warnings and entangled with the enemy, disrupting the enemy's attack rhythm and winning time for the camp to mobilize troops. When the enemy cavalry rushed to the front of the camp, the entire army was on guard and forced the enemy cavalry to give up the attack and retreat.

"Zhuang Dutong, your troops can arrive at Duliangshan in advance before stepping forward. They performed well, but what did you do on the way?" Zhao Bing asked with a calm face.

"Report to Your Majesty, I have not done anything wrong except the generals to move forward!" Zhuang Siqi thought for a while and replied.

"Okay, I will remind you!" Zhao Bing threw a stack of folds on the table and said, "There are soldiers who plundered the granaries of prefectures and counties along the way and forced the food and grass; the soldiers of your army trampled on fertile fields and destroyed wheat seedlings; the soldiers who drove away the merchants on the road and occupied the post road; and the merchant ships were forced to recruit at the ferry, destroying goods, and carrying soldiers to transition..."

"Your Majesty, my subordinates' military situation is like fire. Everything should be done first, and we should not be limited to minor details." Zhuang Siqi stood up and bowed and replied, "Due to the time limit, if we want to arrive on time, it is too late to mobilize supplies and food, so we can only borrow food from the prefectures and counties along the way. They refused to provide it on the grounds that there was no relevant documents, so our subordinates had to take some extraordinary measures. As for trampling on the fields, our subordinates could only borrow roads in order to win the world, and those merchants occupied the main road and blocked the marching route, so our subordinates had to ask them to give way."

"It's so good!" Zhao Bing heard his defense and teased, "The military situation is as hot as fire, but even if you act in the enemy's territory, you still have to consider whether it is appropriate. However, you have to make such a bad deed on your own territory and feel confident that you have no guilt. Do those prefectures do something wrong, and the people are worthy of the people, and merchants deserve to suffer unrestrained disasters? You also regard military discipline and national laws, and let the people view our army!"

"Subordinate..." Zhuang Siqi was questioned by the emperor and looked at the memorials on the table. He couldn't help but feel distressed. He thought for a moment, "Subordinate is wrong. He should not have done anything that violates the laws of the court, damages the prestige of the country, and harms the interests of the people. He is willing to be punished. He immediately sent someone to apologize to the prefectures and the people who suffered damage from our department, and do his best to make compensation and obtain their understanding!"

"Well, the attitude is pretty good, but these are not just talk. You must remember them in your heart. You are also from a farmer family. You know the hardships of farming and the difficulty of selling in merchants and travelers. You must also be clear that the national laws are like furnaces and military laws are ruthless!" Zhao Bing said, "You all want Sun Dutong to learn about this matter. His troops also marched for a long distance. However, in addition to ensuring that they arrive at their destination on time, they have also solved a series of problems such as insufficient food and grass and poor access, and I have not received any relevant complaints."

"Yes, I will definitely ask General Sun for advice!" Zhuang Siqi turned around and bowed to Sun Kai.

"You are polite to the President Zhuang, why don't you talk about advice? Let's learn from each other!" Sun Kai hurriedly replied with a smile.

"Hmph, don't be proud, I'm going to talk about your problem below!" Zhao Bing looked at Sun Kai, who couldn't help but be proud, and snorted coldly.
