Chapter 212: Martial Arts

The three-meter-high viewing platform is covered with a red felt carpet, which is particularly eye-catching, under the stage, forty cowhide drums are lined up, forty drummers are waving drumsticks, they are neatly beating hard, the sound of war drums resounding between the heavens and the earth, with the sound of war drums, the soldiers holding the flag rush into the field, the flag flutters in the wind, making the sound of hulala, dozens of flags are inserted around the perimeter of the school field, and there is a soldier standing with a knife next to each flag.

In the sound of drums, Gao Yuan took the head, followed by Wu Kai and Zheng Jun, after the three of them, there were dozens of gentry from the two counties, everyone walked to the table covered by the big red felt carpet, and looked at it, at the entrance of the school field, thousands of soldiers stood in line with black pressure, but there was no sound, standing on the stage, a heavy pressure rushed in, and the gentry who were still talking and laughing just now immediately restrained the smile on their faces, and stared at the cyan ocean without turning their eyes.

Although they are all gentry of a county, and they are all figures who have seen the world, but like this kind of military parade, and it is an army parade of thousands of people, they have never seen it, and they are excited, but they are also a little trembling.

This is a lofty army, in another sense, this is also their army, because Zhang Shouyue has divided Fufeng and Chima into a defensive area, and the army in this defensive area is only this one, and his strength determines their life and death, as well as the rich and poor.

An officer walked towards the viewing platform from a distance, walking very slowly, very steadily, with big steps, a little closer, and the people on the stage let out an exclamation, they all recognized this person, it was Cao Tiancheng. The reason for the exclamation. It's because Cao Tiancheng is very familiar with them, and everyone on this stage has dealt with him, and the one is wearing plain clothes. With a smile on his face, some of them are in the study, on the wine table, fighting with them, and the middle-aged man who is red-faced and red-eared for every penny of profit is a lively businessman. They barely saw Cao Tiancheng wearing a military uniform. Until this time, he was seen wearing a new military uniform. Cao Tiancheng, who held the waist knife in his hand and walked to the stage step by step, suddenly woke up. This guy seems to be the second-in-command second only to Gao Yuan in this army!

Cao Tiancheng walked to the stage, stood with his feet together, and raised his eyes to the top. Meanwhile. Forty drums stop at the same time.

Standing solemnly under the stage, his right hand clenched into a fist, and struck the leather armor on his left breast, "Lord Yu County, all departments have been prepared and can be paraded." He used all his strength and shouted vigorously.

Gao Yuan took a step forward and returned the salute with the same movements as Cao Tiancheng. "It's good to go."

"Yes! Cao Tiancheng replied loudly and took a step back. Huo Di turned around, his right hand was on the hilt, and with a choking sound, the cold and shining war knife came out of its sheath, held high in the air, and fell heavily, as the war knife fell, the forty drums sounded again, different from the previous rapid drum beat, this time, it was a blow, and the interval between each time was longer.

With the sound of a drum beating on the tip of the heart, heavy footsteps sounded from the left side of the school field, and the neat queue of the first row of Tsing Yi soldiers began to advance forward, and at the front of them was Sun Xiao, who was holding a war knife high.

A row, another row, a full twenty rows of soldiers, a phalanx of twenty-five soldiers in each row with a total of five hundred soldiers marched towards the center of the school field with neat steps, hundreds of people acted together, trampling on the ground, but it was a rhythm, Bai Yucheng stood on the platform, and could see clearly, these soldiers almost even trembled in their bodies, which made him a little shocked, how much effort does it take to train these soldiers who are like dolls.

More than ten steps away from the first phalanx, the second phalanx began to set off again, Naha walked in front of the second phalanx, and a thousand soldiers of the Fufeng battalion officially appeared.

The rumbling footsteps came and gradually walked into the viewing platform. Sun Xiao turned his head to look at the stage, the sword in his hand was pressed down, and as he pressed down, the soldier with the spear in his hand let out a roar at the same time, the spear in his hand slanted forward, and with a bang, the people watching the ceremony on the stage let out an exclamation, in their eyes, the bright spear almost grazed the head of the soldier in front of him and stabbed out, and in the blink of an eye, in their eyes, they could only see the black spear shaft and the snow bright spearhead. It wasn't until the procession walked past the front of the stage that they could see the rows of soldiers between the spears.

At this time, the soldiers' heads turned around in unison, looking at the stage, their eyes were looking at only one person, that is, Gao Yuan, fanatical eyes, which made Bai Yucheng's body a little numb.

The layman looks at the excitement, the insider looks at the doorway, Bai Yucheng himself is a person who leads the troops, much more understanding than everyone on the stage, he knows what this look means, because in his horse bandit team, his subordinates look at him like this, as long as he gives an order, even if they want them to die, they will rush towards the scythe of death without hesitation.

But compared with his own team, this team has another advantage that he can't compare with at all, that is, discipline, listening to the neat footsteps like a person, looking at the team that looks like a straight line whether it is horizontally or vertically or obliquely, the spear that is almost on a parallel line, and the hand of Bai Yucheng in his sleeve is trembling slightly, which the layman thinks is beautiful, but in his eyes, it presents another scene.

On the boundless grassland, the cavalry galloped to the horse, but they were greeted by a forest of guns standing tall and motionless, standing like a mountain, all the guns were obliquely inclined to the ground, the arrows rained wildly, the spears stabbed rapidly, no matter which direction the cavalry dodged, they would be pierced off the horse by the neat bayonet spears.

He took a deep breath.

After the first phalanx, there was the second phalanx of the Fufeng Battalion, led by Naha, followed by the two phalanxes of the Red Horse Battalion led by Zheng Xiaoyang.

Two thousand people, four phalanxes, in Bai Yucheng's eyes, but there is no difference, they are all exactly the same and make people feel scared, I really don't know how this Gao Yuan trained such a force.

Gao Yuan seemed to feel the hot gaze of Bai Yucheng behind him, turned his head, looked at Bai Yucheng, smiled and whispered: "Some fancy shelves, just to amuse everyone!" "

Bai Yucheng smiled bitterly, such a strict military discipline, I am afraid that even the relatives and guards of Donghu Wangting Miranda will be out of reach, and they are actually said to be a showmanship. Although this was the first time he had seen Gao Yuan's infantry team, just looking at this extremely strict military discipline could basically explain the problem.

The most difficult problem in an army is how to ensure military discipline.

The four phalanxes gathered under the viewing platform, and finally it was the turn of the cavalry to appear. Bai Yucheng perked up, he had seen this cavalry, and his command was full of cavalry, he wanted to see what tricks these cavalry could play.

But this time he was disappointed, the cavalry one after the other, head to tail, circled, stopped behind the foot soldiers, and actually did it, compared to the shock of the infantry, the cavalry was simply simple to the extreme.

Under the stage, Cao Tiancheng's sword crossed and slashed once, two thousand soldiers lifted their spears, and began to trot on the spot, in the trot, the team slowly spread, from the previous four tight phalanxes, slowly spread all over the school field, no more and no less between each soldier, horizontal and vertical are separated by one meter.

"The drill begins! Cao Tiancheng shouted loudly.

With a roar of rage, the spear was raised, with the sound of the wind, stabbed forward, and another roar, took a step forward, the tail of the gun swung obliquely, and then a roar, the tail of the gun forward, and poked forward again.

The action is very simple, there are no fancy movements, but it is difficult to play the same action at the same time in the two thousand people, at the same point in time to play into an action, this is very spectacular, Wu Kai and a group of gentry on the stage are excited, they are all cheering and cheering and their palms are red, even a depressed Zheng Jun is also dancing with eyebrows, there is such an army, the Donghu people are coming again, but they are not afraid.

All the spear movements of the soldiers are so six or seven moves, each move is the simplest, but the most practical, the only difference is that the soldiers' movements are getting faster and faster, but no matter how fast, the two thousand soldiers are all at the same point in time, and unconsciously, Bai Yucheng's palms are already wet with sweat.

"Close! With Cao Tiancheng's roar, Bai Yucheng realized that the soldiers who were performing martial arts had returned to their original positions. Qi bowed down and put the spear on his side, it was such a simple action, Bai Yucheng also found that the spears in the hands of the soldiers of a column were actually put in a straight line, and the spears were connected from end to end, without any difference.

"Knives! Cao Tiancheng's roar sounded again, and two thousand soldiers reached out to their backs with their backs, and with a snap, the big knives held in both hands appeared in their hands at the same time.

The roar resumed, and the action was still very simple, chopping, teasing, cutting, blocking, stabbing, but compared to the spear, the broadsword was more dazzling and dazzling.

After the knife, there is a whole set of boxing techniques, compared to the previous marksmanship and knife techniques, although the boxing method is very good-looking, but it is not so practical, this is purely for the soldiers to refine the body, but also to train the agility and flexibility of the soldiers, the lethality is very limited. But then, the fight between each two rows of soldiers surprised Bai Yucheng again, just now he felt that the useless boxing technique was impressively displayed at this time, because every move and style of his every move was incomparably yin, dealing with the enemy's joints, lower yin, lower abdomen, these vital points. Twist people's joints, kick people to the yin, and make people unguardable.

Glancing at Gao Yuan, there was no expression on this person's face, it seemed that these were all expected by him, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, what kind of monster can this train such a soldier! (To be continued......)
