Chapter 32: Giving Fame to the Army
Summer and autumn come.
The temperature turned cold, near Gucheng, business travel was extinct, Siye was sparsely populated, the fields were barren, no one cultivated, and the whole Gucheng County seemed more bleak.
Within a radius of dozens of miles, there is still popularity in Guanghua County, which is more than ten miles away around the county seat and on the opposite bank.
And the culprit of all this is a pair of enemies in the late Ming Dynasty, the Eight Kings and Zuo Liangyu, the destructive power of the two can be described as half a catty against eight taels.
Now the defeat of the exile army from all walks of life has almost fallen into the lowest period, but the eight kings who captured the valley city seem to stand out from the crowd and have the strongest strength.
This made Xiong Wencan, the governor of the five provinces who was sitting in Xiangyang and had just taken office, feel like a fish in his throat.
Since the defeat of the two official armies last time, he has ordered several times to urge Zuo Liangyu to cross the river to recover Gucheng and exterminate the eight kings.
However, Zuo Liangyu's old fritters are not something Xiong Wencan can settle with, not only ignoring his orders, but also sending people to Xiangyang every day to ask for rewards.
The officers and troops of Yunyang and Xiangyang also disobeyed the yin and yang.
On the one hand, the military generals kept begging for money, food, and military salaries before they were willing to send troops, and on the other hand, the civil officials and gentry in various places were desperately crying poor and not pulling out a dime.
This made Xiong Wencan, who had the title of governor of the five provinces, very nervous, and helpless to the extreme, so he could only watch the eight kings occupy Gucheng and claim the king's hegemony.
At this time, in the wilderness north of Gucheng City, the benchmark of the three hundred teenagers standing was straight, their faces were nervous, and they were holding the spear tightly in their hands, and the tip of the spear was shining with a hint of coldness.
After a month of hard work, all the tips have been recast, and a total of 270 diamond-shaped tips and 30 high-quality waist knives have been created.
Directly in front of the team, the leader of Qin sat on a mule and horse, wearing a red cloak, a sword tied around his waist, and a handcuff on his thigh.
Looking at this 300 army that had been training hard for more than a month, Leader Qin was also full of heroism in his heart.
Temeow finally has some capital.
"In today's assessment, the top ten will not only be promoted to captain, but the leader will also personally give their names!"
When the teenagers heard this, they all looked at the Qin leader on the horse with burning eyes, and everyone secretly gritted their teeth, they must enter the top ten.
"The first physical fitness test, start!"
As Qin Yu's words fell, the three hundred teenagers began to resist the spear, and trotted away into the distance without hurrying or slowing.
During this period, no one scrambled, and it was obvious that they all understood that they could not rush to the front and hold on to the end.
This assessment, which has been notified half a month ago, is a total of four items of physical fitness, culture, and personal skills and tactics, as well as battle formation cooperation, and the top 30 comprehensive results are the captain and vice captain.
The physical fitness assessment is the easiest, armed off-road fifteen miles, in fact, it is just carrying a spear, running to the river and running back.
After a stick of incense, teenagers began to return one after another, and the mother and daughter were busy registering their rankings.
The thirty who ran at the top were almost all one of the first hundred teenagers to join, and Qin Yu didn't care about this.
After the physical fitness assessment, just take a short rest and start the personal skills and tactics assessment.
Rows of wooden ring targets were inserted in the field, and the teenagers stabbed at the targets in turn for a minute, and then calculated the score according to the number of rings, and the wooden planks pierced, and the number of rings doubled.
For a while, the shouting and killing continued, and the strong ones tried to pierce every time, and the small ones fought for the number and accuracy.
This time, she didn't let Li Wan'er use her mouth to time again, but made an hourglass, and thirty people were assessed at the same time each time, and the assessment was not completed until an hour.
Although Qin Yu had stayed away from the county seat in order to avoid harassment, the shouting of killing still attracted the heroes who were hanging around nearby to come and watch.
Seeing this, Qin Yu immediately conducted the third battle formation cooperation assessment.
The first is to stab in groups of three at the same time, then thirty people stand in a row and thrust forward, and finally alternate stabs in each row.
The rules are also simple, Qin Yu is responsible for shouting the password, and the teenagers evolve various formations according to the password, execute tactical actions, and if there is a mistake in any link, the teenager will be deducted ten points.
As a result, after a set of actions, no teenager did not make mistakes, and in the end, there was no formation at all, some couldn't even distinguish between the southeast and the northwest, and some couldn't find their usual training companions.
In this regard, Qin Yu did not have too much demand, after all, there were two hundred talents who were trained for a month, and these teenagers were obedient, if they were replaced by the heroes of each battalion, I am afraid that they would not even be able to distinguish between left and right.
Originally, Qin Yu wanted to come back a few more times, and then go back after dark, but he found that there were more and more people coming from the city to see the excitement, so he was so frightened that he hurriedly collected his troops and returned to the city.
After dinner, the last cultural assessment was carried out, and this time the mother and daughter were completely responsible.
In fact, it is to let the teenagers write the words that have been taught, three points for two words for the old boys, and three points for the new teenagers.
On this night, the three hundred teenagers will be destined to be sleepless, full of expectations for tomorrow's results.
And Qin Yu and Mrs. Li were busy until the middle of the night to count the data.
"Childe, this is the top ten, the first place is a monkey, and the second place is an iron head..."Mrs. Li handed the list to Qin Yudao.
"Can the stupid iron-headed guy get the second place? Madam, aren't you cheating on the cultural assessment? ”
Qin Yu was a little surprised, although the iron head was tall and big, and he usually trained hard, but he was a hard flaw in literacy.
"Childe, where does the concubine dare to cheat, although the iron head of the cultural assessment is the penultimate one, but the other three are the first place, and the personal assessment is thirty-two points more than the second place, so the comprehensive score is the second place."
Mrs. Li smiled wryly and explained.
"Well, madam, you are highly educated, give me ten names!" Qin Yu said with a smile.
"Don't laugh at the child, where can the concubine's body be as good as the child's ink, presumably the child's heart already knows, the concubine body will never dare to do it for him."
Mrs. Li quickly shook her head in fright and waved her hand.
"Alright! Then the lady should go and rest early. ”
Qin Yu just tested her, and was relieved to see that she had no ambitions, otherwise he would have to ask Gao Ming for another cultural class in the future.
The next day, Qin Yu announced the comprehensive results of the three hundred teenagers, and the top ten were named Qin Tie, Qin Gang, Qin Yong, Qin Meng, Qin Zhong, Qin Yi, Qin Wu, Qin Shuang, Qin Wen, and Qin Wu.
The sum of the ten people is steel and brave, loyal and unparalleled, civil and military, which is easy to understand and easy to remember.
Originally, Qin Yu planned to accept ten people as his righteous son, but he was afraid that the Eight Kings would be suspicious of him, after all, this set of Eight Kings was playing by himself, and Lao Zhu also played this set back then.
In addition, he was too young, so he thought twice before he came up with a routine such as giving a name instead.
At the same time, Qin Yu also divided the 300 people into ten teams, each team of 30 people, one captain and two vice captains.
Among them, the first team is the pro-guard, with Qin Tie as the captain, that is, the iron head, and the thirty members of the pro-guard team, all of whom are the most powerful among the teenagers, each with a waist knife and a shield.
Although the twenty vice-captains were not named, each of them was rewarded with a chicken, and the others were given a day off as a consolation prize.
