Chapter 30: Training into an Army

Two days later, at about five o'clock in the afternoon, the large school field outside the Yuanmen, where flags were displayed, and the generals of the Han army were neatly arranged in different positions according to different military branches. Military generals and ordinary civil officials stood next to the point platform. Liu Bang, Deng Yulong, Xiao He and other important personnel stood on the platform.

Through the competition between these two people, the first place has been decided by all six military branches. These people were all excited, waiting for the official announcement of the results, waiting to be a petty officer.

The clerk holding the bamboo slip said loudly: "The outcome of the individual soldier assessment has been decided, and the first place in each military branch is: cavalry - Ouyang Ling, halberd soldier - Qian Deya, sword soldier - Gong Zhi, spear soldier - Yu Wei, archer soldier - Weizhou, Tiance army - Wang Dahu." ”

The name Tiance Army, which Deng Yulong had already thought of, was officially named two days ago.

Deng Yulong, who was on the platform, took two steps forward and said loudly: "Han soldiers, in the past few months, you have trained hard every day, and you are all doing well. Today, the Han army is the best soldier in the world, the first in all branches of the army, and the best in the army, let us congratulate them with warm applause. ”

As the words fell, tens of thousands of soldiers applauded almost at the same time, and the applause that gathered resounded in the sky.

During this period, there was no such way as applauding, which was requested by Deng Yulong after he became a general.

Wang Dahu and the other six people felt the loud applause for themselves, which was an honor, and the sense of honor brought them great happiness and satisfaction.

More than a minute later, Deng Yulong made a gesture with both hands, signaling everyone to stop applauding, and the applause at the scene quickly stopped.

Next, the list of people who have been promoted is announced.

The first of the six branches was promoted to Dub, the 2nd-10th to the rank of sergeant, and the 11th-100th to the rank of sergeant.

Since Liu Bang came here, of course he would not do nothing, and the Dubo officer certificates, which ranked first in the six services, were all issued by Liu Bang personally, and the six of them respectfully accepted them.

After several months of training and undergoing a major assessment, Liu Bang announced on the spot that the Han army had been officially trained into an army and would celebrate tonight, and that civil and military officials would go to the court tomorrow to discuss matters concerning the march into Guanzhong.

At night, the camp was brightly lit, and Deng Yulong asked the military kitchen to add food to the soldiers to celebrate the completion of the training army, and the soldiers were eating heavily.

In the tent, there are many tables here, Liu Bang and the main ministers are concentrated here, Liu Bang sits in the position of the original general in the middle of the top, the civil official is on the left, and the military general is on the right, and they have lunch together.

Liu Bang said: "Everyone, Aiqing, in the past few days, everyone has watched the drills and assessment skills of the Han army, our Han army is the best soldiers in the world, which depends on the drills of the generals. Drinking alcohol is not allowed in the army, so everyone replaces wine with tea and toasts him with a bowl. ”

As he spoke, he picked up the bowl of tea on the table, and the others did the same.

Deng Yulong hurriedly stood up, bowed his hand to Liu Bang, and said respectfully: "Minister, King Han!" Then he bowed his hand to the crowd and said, "Thank you, my lords." ”

Liu Bang brought the bowl to his mouth, and everyone drank it again, Deng Yulong stood and drank a bowl of tea, and then sat down.

After a bowl of tea, Liu Bang said: "The army assessment system pioneered by the general is very good, and it can be implemented in the Han army for a long time in the future." ”

Deng Yulong said: "Everything the minister did was to assist the King of Han to seize Guanzhong and defeat Xiang Yu. ”

Fan Xu immediately said: "General, you have some ability to train soldiers, but how can you fight Guanzhong?" Even if the plank road is repaired, as long as Zhang Han's army guards the other side of the plank road, can the Han army capture it? ”

He admitted that Deng Xing did have a set of military training, but he was not good at training troops and was not qualified to be a general, unless he really had a strong ability to command troops, he would be convinced.

Lu Wan said: "General, you have promised the King of Han that you will lead the army to fight Guanzhong within a year. ”

Deng Yulong said: "Since I have received the handsome seal of the general, of course I have the certainty of capturing Guanzhong and defeating Xiang Yu." After going to court tomorrow, everyone will naturally know the plan to send troops. ”

Fan said: "As long as you can lead everyone to fight Guanzhong, my old Fan will make amends to you." ”

Fan Xu is not a fool, but he is more upright, and if he thinks like this in his heart, as long as it is not a military secret, he often can't help but say it.

Now is not the time for formal discussions, mainly to celebrate, Liu Bang will not discuss the matter of sending troops until tomorrow.

At about nine o'clock in the evening, Liu Bang and the officials returned to Nanzheng, and Deng Yulong continued to live in the army.
