Chapter 85: The Praetorian Guard

"Morning!"

"Early, early!"

Early in the morning, in the playground of Yenching University, freshmen gathered here to greet each other. www.biquge.info Although they are all freshmen who have only been in contact with each other for a few days, they are all students in the same class after all, and they quickly became very familiar with each other.

Tang Qian also stood among these people, greeting a few of his classmates. Although Tang Qian passed the exam of the elite building two days ago, it shocked the whole school and his classmates.

But after all, the students who can be admitted to Yan University are all top students in their own schools, and they all have their own pride. After being surprised for a while, they regained their calm, and they just regarded Tang Qian as their ordinary classmate.

At this moment, several of their classmates were chatting about these things about military training.

"It's going to be military training, I don't know if it's going to be strict!"

"Yes, I don't know where the instructor will come from to train us, if it's too strict, then this time will not be easy."

On Tang Qian's side, several people spoke.

"I just got the news, we are miserable this time, I heard that the people who came to be our instructors were all selected from the Praetorian Guard." Hearing their words, the other spoke.

"What, picked out from the Praetorian Guard?"

"My God, isn't that the one who guards the palace and our Yanjing? But our most elite army in China, they are actually our instructors? ”

"It's scary, I heard that their standards are the strictest in the world."

When a few people heard that it was actually the Praetorian Guard, they all complained bitterly.

Tang Qian was the same, his heart was moved when he heard that it was actually the Praetorian Guard, and he had also heard of this famous Praetorian Guard.

At the time of the founding of the Great Shun, there was no so-called Janissary Army, until the time of Emperor Sejong, when the reform had just begun, and Emperor Sejong trained a new army according to the Western army model.

However, before the whipping was completely completed, and the whole country had less than 100,000 new troops, northern Russia brazenly invaded and demanded the cession of millions of square kilometers of territory, including Northeast China and Outer Mongolia. Emperor Sejong, of course, did not agree, and decided to concentrate the forces of the whole country and fight a decisive battle with Russia in the northeast.

In order to ensure victory, all the new troops were transferred to Russia. As a result, during the fierce battle with Russia, RB suddenly attacked again, controlled the sea control of the Yellow Sea, and the army landed from the Bohai Bay, and came straight to Yanjing, and also demanded compensation of 200 million taels for military expenses and the cession of Taiwan, the Penghu Islands, and so on.

Since the reform of the law, China has never faced the attack of two major powers at the same time, so the people of the people at that time were panicked, and someone in the court immediately proposed to Emperor Sejong to temporarily negotiate peace with RB, or move the capital.

These two suggestions were naturally strongly rejected by Emperor Sejong, and he also issued an edict to the world: no surrender, no negotiation and no relocation of the capital, and a decisive battle with the Japanese to the end!

When RB heard the news, he was naturally furious and immediately called Yanjing. At that time, there were still hundreds of thousands of troops in the old Dashun army, but they were all about to collapse at the touch of a button, and they were completely vulnerable.

The commander-in-chief, who led the new army in the northeast to fight the decisive battle against the Russians, asked Emperor Sejong for instructions on whether to return to Yanjing. This request was also denied, and Emperor Sejong instructed that the Russians must be defeated before they could be returned, and in the end only an army of less than 5,000 men was brought back.

It was this army of less than 5,000 people who traveled day and night, and returned to Yanjing in just a few days, and in less than half a day of short rest in Yanjing, the Japanese army had already hit the vicinity of Yanjing, and the vanguard Yanjing City was only more than 30 miles away, and the walls of Yanjing could already be seen in the telescope.

Under these circumstances, the army of 5,000 men immediately rushed to the front line, and under the slogan of shouting 'Although China is big, we have no way to retreat, and behind us is Yanjing', it firmly held back the Japanese army like a nail for 20 days.

It was not until the Northeast New Army completely defeated Russia and returned to Yanjing that it withdrew from the battlefield, and when it withdrew, there were less than 1,000 of the 5,000 people left. Then the Japanese army was completely surrounded and annihilated by the new army that was driven back, and the RB side surrendered.

Winning the two major powers at the same time, Russia and RB, China shocked the world all of a sudden, and made Britain, France, the United States and other countries re-examine their views on China. And the deepest contribution in this war was the army of 5,000 people, so this army was later awarded the title of Dashun Janissary by Sejong, and since then it has remained in the capital of Yanjing Gongwei.

Although more than 100 years have passed, this Praetorian Guard has always been the most elite army in China, with the best equipment, the highest morale, and of course, the most stringent requirements.

Therefore, after hearing that the instructors were actually selected from among them in this military training, many of Tang Qian's classmates complained. Although Tang Qian also felt that he was afraid that the future would not be easy, he was very curious about this legendary army, wanting to see what kind of army it would be.

Dada!

Not long after, there was a sound of neat footsteps in the distance, as if a person was stepping out. But the voice was very loud, and Tang Qian knew that it was absolutely impossible for him to step out alone.

"Here we are, here the instructors are."

"It's really worthy of being an instructor of the Praetorian Guard, this step is so neat, it's like stepping out alone."

"It's amazing, but if we are allowed to step on it like this, then we will be miserable, this is too demanding, and it is completely impossible for us to do it."

Not only Tang Qian, but also his classmates heard that this was definitely not a one-man step, and they all knew that it must be someone from the Praetorian Guard. Hearing this footstep, one by one, in the case of some admiration, but also a little worried, worried about the next few days.

Sure enough, soon a group of people with footsteps walked in front of them, everyone was wearing military uniforms, looking very heroic and majestic.

"Hello everyone, we are your instructors for this military training, and the next period of time will be the days when we get along together. But you can rest assured that in the next period of time, we will definitely not release water, and will definitely use our strictest requirements to train everyone, so that everyone can grow as quickly as possible. ”

After walking in front of Tang Qian and them, the instructor who led the team stood up and said to all the first-year students of Yenching University. He has a tall figure, a resolute face, and a standard military look.

And hearing his words, everyone knows that this time is miserable, and I am afraid that the next few days will be very sad.

As a result, all the freshmen of Tang Qian and his family began to shout and scream, and they also experienced what the training of the Praetorian Guard was.
