School grounds.

Six thousand soldiers lined up neatly, and all the officers went out alone.

Wang Yuan shouted: "Pan Gui! ”

"In!" Pan Gui stepped forward.

Wang Yuan asked, "What does the Central Thousand General Banner look like?" ”

Pan Gui immediately said: "Yellow heart, red edge, blue belt." ”

Wang Yuan said: "Go find it!" ”

Pan Gui trotted to the bottom of the stage, and from a pile of flags, he turned out the central thousand flags.

Wang Yuan shouted again: "Zhong Changsheng! ”

"In!" Zhong Changsheng took a step forward.

Wang Yuan asked: "What does the general flag of the center left division look like?" ”

Zhong Changsheng replied: "Blue heart, yellow edge, white belt." ”

Wang Yuan said: "Go find it!" ”

The queue training that was originally planned to be three months was terminated early after only two months of practice, and the practice of recognizing flags was accelerated instead.

There is no way, the anti-thieves have returned to Gyeonggi.

The Beijing battalion, the border army, and the troops of the local guard station surrounded and intercepted the anti-thieves in Shandong. Yang Hu and Zhao Qi's troops were driven to Henan, and Qi Yanming and Liu San were killed back to Gyeonggi.

Qi Yanming even returned to Bazhou, and once again he was only two or three hundred miles away from Jingshi.

Wang Ruyi, the governor of Bazhou, Wang Cong, the general of staff, Xu Chengfang, the commander of the military garrison, Wang Yong, the garrison of Zhuozhou, and others, because they only dared to defend the city and did not dare to go out of the city to intercept, led to the rampant thieves in the Gyeonggi area, and the county of Zonghengzhou was like walking in a no-man's land, and finally even approached nearly 100 miles outside Beijing!

Wang Ruyi, the governor of Zhizhou, was sent to prison for questioning, all the other military attaches were suspended and demoted, and their deputies handed over by the army to their deputies were guilty of meritorious service - if they could not make great contributions, these military attaches would definitely be settled by the autumn queen.

The 6,000 regular soldiers trained by Zhang Yong were led by the eunuchs Wang Fang and Wang Ming with 3,000 each, and each selected 10,000 strange soldiers to be responsible for guarding the capital.

The remaining more than 10,000 old, weak, sick and disabled people were immediately pulled into the barracks for training, and the military headquarters ordered them to drill every five days. There is also a person in charge of the matter and a royal historian, who is responsible for inspecting the troops in the capital and rectifying the corruption and laziness of the officers. He was promoted to supervise the imperial history of Ningpu as the chief judge of Shandong, and was also in charge of the armaments of Tuntian in Beizhili and Bazhou.

The bigwigs of the DPRK and China have gone completely crazy, and in just one year, they have been beaten to the outskirts of Beijing by anti-thieves three times, and they really use the Gyeonggi area as a public toilet.

This time, there was really no mercy and the military system was strictly rectified, and in just a few days, more than 30 people were questioned. Now it has been so much that even those hereditary officers who don't know how to pay all day long have begun to go out early and return late to fulfill their duties.

Leopard room.

Yang Yiqing, who resigned twice in a row last month, forced the emperor to shadow his son as a Jinyi Wei Qianhu, suggested at this moment: "Your Majesty, the thieves have arrived dozens of miles away from the outskirts of Beijing, and they must not let their soldiers come to the city, otherwise the imperial court will inevitably be swept away." The minister asked Wang Yuan, a scholar in the Hanlin Academy, to immediately lead the troops out of the city to quell the chaos! ”

"The minister seconded the proposal," said Sun Jiao, the head of the household department, "the money and grain in Jingcang are exhausted, and if the chaos is not quelled as soon as possible, the military salary will not be paid next month." The king of the Hanlin Academy is brave and good at fighting, and the anti-thieves will be able to defeat the enemy in one battle when they hear his name! ”

Zhu Houzhao asked Li Dongyang: "What does Mr. think?" ”

Li Dongyang replied slowly: "The minister seconded the proposal." ”

Zhu Houzhao said worriedly: "Do you want Wang Erlang to only bring more than 100 elite horsemen to break the enemy?" ”

Zhu Houzhao's leopard cavalry, although he planned to expand to five hundred. But for the time being, there are no fine war horses, and there are no elite knights, and now it is still the more than 100 people that Wang Yuan brought back.

Yang Tinghe said: "Didn't Master Wang train six thousand elites? ”

Zhu Houzhao patiently explained: "The 6,000 soldiers in Wang Erlang's hands were left over from the Jingying before, and Zhang Yong went to pick up 6,000 young people. Choosing soldiers twice in a row, what good soldiers are left? According to Wang Erlang, when his 6,000 soldiers first entered the camp, more than half of them were so hungry that they were like refugees in a famine. Now that I've only been training for two months, how can I take it out to kill the enemy? ”

Yang Tinghe thought for a while and said, "You can order Master Wang to lead his troops out of Beijing and camp fifty miles away on the outskirts of Beijing." I don't ask him to defeat the thieves, I only hope that he can block the thieves and not let the thieves come to the city. At the same time, he ordered Xianning Bo Qiu Yue to rush to the aid immediately, and formed a north-south attack with Wang Bachelor, and the thieves naturally fled at that time. ”

Xianning Bo Qiu Yue is also a border general, and his position is the chief military officer of Ningxia, but he is a military attache recommended by Yang Tinghe. Moreover, Qiu Yue, as a border general, commanded the 3,000 battalions (all cavalry) in the capital at this time.

Qingliu said that whoever befriended the border generals, in fact, everyone was similar.

In this chaotic situation, military merit is paramount, but how can any civilian bigwig who wants to make merit not support the military generals?

Zhu Houzhao thought about it carefully and said: "According to what Mr. Yang said, let Wang Erlang lead more than 100 elite cavalry and 6,000 foot soldiers to go out of Beijing to intercept the thieves." Then ordered Xianning Bo to Qiu Yue, and immediately led 3,000 battalions to rush to the aid of Wang Erlang. ”

Li Dongyang suddenly asked, "Bachelor Wang should be given a temporary position." ”

Zhu Houzhao said: "It's still to patrol the imperial history and inspect the North Zhili!" ”

Wang Yuan inspected the two prefectures and two prefectures last time, and this time he directly inspected the northern Zhili, which is already a disguised governor or governor, and the operation is greater than the governor's power.

It must have broken the rules, but this time no one objected, and the bigwigs even hoped that Wang Yuan would lead his troops out of Beijing as soon as possible.

Although the impeachment of Wang Yuan has been piled up in the past two months, and Yang Tinghe and others are very dissatisfied with Wang Yuan's fortunate behavior, they all agree with Wang Yuan's military talent - with two hundred elite horsemen, they can bring back Liu Liu's head and Liu Qi's head. This time, with a larger force and thousands of cavalry to help, how can you kill the anti-thief!

……

In the sixth year of Zhengde, on the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month.

Seeing that the Chinese New Year was about to come, the emperor came to Xuanwu Gate with hundreds of officials of the imperial court and personally gave Wang Yuan, who was about to go on the expedition.

If you don't block the anti-thieves, this Spring Festival will be very sad, maybe you will have to defend the city in the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve.

How humiliating it is, the capital of the Ming Dynasty, there are anti-thieves who come to attack the city on Chinese New Year's Eve. Although the city must not be broken, there is no city wall in the southern suburbs, and the houses built with the city were burned by the thieves, which is also a slap in the face of the court!

Li Dongyang was supported by his sick body and was helped to the barracks.

In front of him is the Son of Heaven's honor guard, a masterpiece of ceremonial music, although it is not a worship of the general, but this time it is also very grand.

The school field was empty, only Wang Yuan and the law enforcement team, as well as more than 100 elite cavalry brought by Zhu Zhi and dozens of Jinyi guard cavalry brought by Wu Liande.

Yang Tinghe frowned, thinking that Wang Yuan was too lazy, and the discipline of the army seemed to be very poor, and the emperor came and did not see the soldiers.

Zhu Houzhao asked scoldingly: "Master Wang, where are your foot soldiers?" ”

Wang Yuan said with a smile: "It is waiting for His Majesty to review." ”

After speaking, Wang Yuan gestured to the law enforcement team, and the law enforcement officer immediately blew the camp whistle.

Six teams of 1,000 men rushed out from all over the barracks, and even though they trotted all the way, they still maintained a neat formation. When they came to the school grounds, they immediately stopped and formed a team, and then held high the flag, held weapons in hand, and stepped towards the side of the general platform.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

Every step was taken with a neat sound, and thousands of steps gathered together, with the momentum of thousands of troops.

Yang Yiqing had also fought in the border area, and at this moment he was shocked: "Master Wang, this is the Beijing camp where you have been training for two months?" ”

Wang Yuan smiled and said, "More than two months." I just taught them to recognize the flag order, and they are not very familiar with it, so they just want to forget it. ”

Yang Yiqing was speechless for a moment.

Li Dongyang stroked his beard and said: "With such elite soldiers, why worry about thieves?" We sit in the capital and wait for the good news. ”

Zhu Houzhao was already so excited that his face was red, he had been here once before, and the soldiers at that time couldn't even tell the difference between left and right. At this time, the whole army seems to have been reborn, and this formation is even more elite than the border army.

In fact, they are all goods, Wang Yuan is afraid that the training will be hard, but when he receives the enemy, he will be defeated by a blow.

Yang Yiqing personally commanded the border army, he couldn't help but wonder, and asked again: "Master Wang, how many days will these soldiers do it?" ”

Wang Yuan replied: "One exercise a day, and even night exercises." ”

"Night?" Yang Yiqing was even more surprised and asked, "Aren't you afraid of Yingxiao?" Can you see it clearly at night? ”

Wang Yuan explained: "As long as you eat meat and eggs for a long time, you can solve the problem of night blindness. As for the battalion roar, I blew the whistle every three or five nights, and within half a burnt of incense, I had to carry a torch to organize the army in the school field. If it fails to arrive within the time limit, the soldiers will deduct the military salary of the month, and all the officers at all levels will have demerits, and the whole team will practice on the second day! Now that they hear a noise in the middle of the night, how can they still have the heart to roar? They are all in a hurry to light the torches. ”

Yang Yiqing couldn't help but clasp his fists and salute: "Bachelor Wang is really born to be a talent!" ”

Whether it is a day exercise or the whole army in the middle of the night, it is beyond Yang Yiqing's imagination, and at the same time, he understands that Wang Yuan must not have embezzled military salaries.

This kind of training method, if you don't give enough food, the officers and soldiers will already make trouble!

Zhu Hou followed the instructions and immediately read out the holy decree, and promoted Pan Gui and other six officers to all the false thousand presidents, that is, acting thousand generals, and promoted them to 100 households (non-hereditary).

If this battle is won, the hundred households will become hereditary, and the word "fake" will be removed from the front of the thousand presidents.

If the merit is huge, such as the total annihilation of the main force of the thief army, the six people can even directly become hereditary thousand households, and the position of general or guerrilla can also be hoped to obtain.

Other officers at all levels are also formally appointed.

In the end, it was Wang Yuan's turn to take the oath, and he held an iron horn and said: "Open the salary, only half of it will be received as usual, and it will be sent directly to your home." The remaining half, come back after winning the battle and take it again, anyway, Lao Tzu will not deduct you. Brothers who have fallen in battle, I promise to make arrangements for the aftermath for you. If there is a person who fights to the death and kills the enemy and captures the flag, he will die on the spot, and I will also ask your children and grandchildren for a hereditary military position. If there are those who are afraid of the enemy and flee from the battle, wipe their necks to understand, don't let Lao Tzu waste time to kill. Hear no! ”

"I heard you!" The whole army shouted.

Wang Yuan raised the wine bowl: "Come, drink this wine!" ”

The six thousand soldiers looked at Wang Yuan with wine, and when they saw Wang Yuan drinking, they drank it.

Wang Yuan drank a bowl of wine and gently put the wine bowl on the ground: "Don't drop the bowl to vent, save your strength to kill the enemy." We don't have many bowls in the barracks, and now that we've fallen, we can't find a bowl to eat when we return from victory. ”

"Hahahaha!"

Six thousand soldiers laughed.

"Wan Sheng!" Wang Yuan drew his sword and shouted.

"Wan Sheng! Wansheng! ”

Six thousand soldiers brushed and raised their weapons, the momentum was like a rainbow, and the sound shook the sky.

The cabinet bigwigs looked at each other and were shocked, this army completely broke their stereotype of Jingying.

Wang Yuan's behavior of wearing armor to beg for food has completely subdued the hearts of the army!
