Ma Chao and Zhang Yang arrived at the training school, and their soldiers had already gathered and were waiting for them.

"Brother Meng Qi, I have already asked people to gather all of them together, just waiting for you to come!"

Then Zhang Yang said loudly to the soldiers below: "Brothers, let everyone gather here today, the main reason is that there is an important matter to announce to everyone!" ”

Zhang Yang paused and said: "From today on, Brother Meng Qi will be my lieutenant, leading everyone to train instead of me!" You've heard me say before that when all the 200 people in our battalion are gathered, we will train together for a month, and then select some people to have a drill and competition with the brothers who are trapped in the camp. This is related to the face of our elite battalion, so everyone should train with the Meng Qi brothers from now on, and don't embarrass our battalion when the time comes, do you understand! ”

"Got it!" The soldiers below answered in unison.

"Didn't you eat in the morning? Be louder! Zhang Yang shouted.

"Got it!" The shouts of the soldiers were deafening.

"Okay, let's start now, we'll see you in a month. If any of you don't obey Brother Meng Qi, you can come to me! After speaking, Zhang Yang left the training school, leaving Ma Chao alone.

"Brothers, from now on, I will lead you to start your daily training. Some of my brothers know me, but many don't. First of all, let me introduce myself, my surname is Ma Mingchao, the word Meng Qi, a native of Longxi, Liangzhou. In the past, our training was three hours a day, but now it has been changed to four hours a day, two hours in the morning and two hours in the afternoon, I hope you will understand more and don't complain. I believe that no one will admit that they are worse than those in the camp, so after a month, we will show our strength to prove ourselves to our opponents, do you have confidence! Ma asked loudly.

"Have faith, have faith! We are confident! The soldiers shouted in unison.

"Sun Yi is out of the ranks!"

"The subordinates are here!" Sun Yi stepped forward from the first platoon of soldiers.

"From now on, you will still be your hundred chiefs and lead the old department!"

"No! Subordinates receive orders! ”

Because Sun Yi was the best martial artist among the hundred, Ma Chao naturally appointed him. As for the rules of competition, of course, it will not change, and anyone who wants to disagree can challenge him casually, but at present, the candidates for the hundred chiefs still have to be appointed first.

"If anyone has any objections, they can say it to their faces, and if they don't, start training!"

"My subordinates have something to say!" Another man stepped out of the first row of soldiers and said.

Ma Chao looked at it and frowned slightly, this person was not someone else, but another Baichang, named Wang Da. On weekdays, he and Ma Chao train separately and do not interfere with each other. But Ma Chao knew that this Wang Da had actually been dissatisfied with himself, because he could not challenge each other at the same level, so Wang Da had nothing to do about Ma Chao.

Now that Ma Chao has become his superior, he feels that his opportunity has come, so he boldly stands up.

"Oh? I don't know what Wang Baichang has to say? Ma Chao asked.

"If your subordinates want to learn in person, please ask Adjutant General Ma for guidance!" It is said to ask for advice, but everyone understands what it means.

The soldiers below were immediately in good spirits when they heard this, this thing is not easy to encounter, but it can be regarded as a good show. Let's fight, let's fight, or it's boring day by day, the soldiers thought to themselves.

Ma Chao raised his eyebrows, "If Wang Baichang has any advice, I will accompany him to the end!" ”

"The subordinates just want to have a sword with the deputy general, I don't know what the deputy general thinks?"

"Okay, Wang Baichang, please! Hao Yang, go get my knife! ”

"No!" The little mouse went to Ma Chao's tent to get the knife, and Wang Baichang also prepared his own ring-head knife.

After a while, the little mouse came back, but he came back with a knife, and forty pounds was not light for him. …,

Ma Chao took the snow drinking knife, pulled it out, held it with one hand, and made a gesture of invitation with the other hand.

"Wang Baichang, please!"

"Please!" Wang Da came to the stage and came to Ma Chao.

In fact, when Wang Da saw Ma Chao's momentum, he suddenly regretted it. Although he often sees Ma Chao, he doesn't know how capable Ma Chao is. Not to mention him, even Zhang Yang doesn't know how capable Ma Chao is, and he thinks that Ma Chao is a third-rate level.

This is not Zhang Yang heard about the competition between Ma Chao and Wang Da, so he went back to the training school, he didn't want this, but he also knew that he had no way to interfere in this matter, so he could only be a spectator.

Wang Da is also a native of Bingzhou, speaking of which, he and Sun Yi are still fellow villagers, both from Yanmen. It stands to reason that fellow villagers should take care of each other more, but the two don't know what to do, they don't get along at all, and they don't like each other.

Sun Yi lost to Ma Chao before, and the two didn't know each other if they didn't fight, and they got along well. Wang Da also looked at Ma Chao unpleasantly, because Ma Chao and Sun Yi had a good relationship, and he became a hundred chiefs at such a young age, Wang Da hated and jealous him, so today Ma Chao's official position surpassed himself, and he finally couldn't help it, but he saw Ma Chao's knife and Ma Chao's posture, and he suddenly felt that he might not be Ma Chao's opponent.

Both of them were holding knives in their right hands, looking at each other, and neither of them made the first move.

Wang Da didn't dare because he was afraid, and Ma Chao felt that Wang Da was a bit interesting, and he was wondering if he would play more with the other party, so the two had their own thoughts, and it turned out to be a stalemate.

After about half a minute, Wang Da couldn't hold his breath and took the lead. As a result, Ma Chao looked at it like this, the so-called experts stretched out their hands, and they knew if there was any, and at first glance, Wang Da's level was indeed stronger than that of ordinary soldiers, but in Ma Chao's eyes, it was still not enough to see, there were a lot of flaws, and Ma Chao was embarrassed to compare with him.

The level of the two is equivalent to Ma Chao bullying people, but he still has to make a move. Wang Da's first move was to stab Ma Chao directly in the chest with a knife, seeing the knife coming towards him, Ma Chao was not in a hurry at all, until the knife was about to stab the chest and it had not yet arrived, he dodged the blade.

Wang Da saw that the first knife was dodged by Ma Chao so easily, and he hurriedly changed his move and swept Ma Chao's chest with the blade, if he was swept away, he would definitely be injured.

Ma Chao took a step back and put the knife out of the way. As soon as he saw the situation, he thought it would be better to solve it quickly. Without waiting for Wang Da to react and make another move, Ma Chao took a big step forward, grabbed Wang Da's right wrist with his left hand, and with a little force, Wang Da's ring knife couldn't be held and fell to the ground, and at the same time, the snow drinking knife in Ma Chao's right hand was already pointed at Wang Da's throat.

The sudden change made Wang Da have no time to react at all, he closed his eyes and waited for Ma Chao's next move, but of course Ma Chao couldn't make any more moves.

"Admit it!" Ma Chao withdrew the knife and said to Wang Da with a fist.

"I lost, and I lost today because I was convinced!" After speaking, Wang Da picked up the ring-headed knife on the ground and returned to the military column with a red face, while there was a thunderous applause from the audience.

"Deputy General Ma is mighty, Vice General Ma is mighty!" The soldiers below shouted, Ma Chao stretched out the palm of his right hand to Lu, and the audience was silent. "Brothers, from now on, it's time to start a month of hard training. But I promise that our efforts today will not be in vain, and you will understand what I said today in future drills, competitions, and battlefields! ”

"No! Everything is arranged by the lieutenant general! So from this moment on, Ma Chao started a month of devil training for the soldiers.

Ma Chao's training is arranged like this, every day for an hour of running, he must carry weapons to run around the valley, half an hour in the morning and afternoon. Then there is the daily practice of marksmanship and knife skills, which is also half an hour in the morning and afternoon, and Ma Chao has really put a lot of thought into it. …,

The last hour is one hour in the morning and one in the afternoon to simulate the battle, not counting Zhang Yang and Ma Chao in the battalion, the whole is 200 people, and Zhang Yang and Ma Chao each lead 100 people to simulate the battle. Fortunately, the valley is also large, and the place where 30,000 or 40,000 people can be stationed is certainly not too small, even if there are 800 people in the camp, it will not affect anything.

Ma Chao let the two teams fight in the valley, sometimes directly head-to-head, sometimes in ambush, but fortunately, the valley is enough for them to toss casually. However, the soldiers' daily battles for one hour in the morning and afternoon, coupled with running and martial arts training, made them very tired every day, and Zhang Yang and Ma Chao also understood, but they had to do so. Only serious training can lay a good foundation for future battles, so the two of them are indeed ruthless.

And just like that, the time of the month was fast up. On the seventh day of the eighth month of the first year of Guanghe, just yesterday, they had been training for a whole month, and today was the day of the elite battalion and the trapping camp to drill and compete. I heard that today's flying general Lu Bu will also come to watch the drill and competition between the two battalions.

To say that Lu Bu has only been here twice, the people in the camp have seen him, but many people in the elite battalion have never seen him. Therefore, many people in the elite battalion are very excited, which shows that Lu Bu is indeed the idol of many people in the Bingzhou Army.

In fact, Lu Bu had already arrived here yesterday, but he didn't show up. Now he is talking to Gao Shun and Zhang Yang in Gao Shun's big tent.

As for the content of today's drill and competition, yesterday they all discussed it and had already gone down to the two battalions so that the two battalions could be prepared. This drill competition is a best-of-three system, with three people each presenting a question.

The first question was written by Lu Bu, and it was a fighting general. The lieutenant generals of each battalion competed on kung fu, and the three of them unanimously passed, thinking that this was good, and they could inspect the martial arts of the lieutenant general.

The second question is from Gao Shun, which is a fighting array. Each battalion leader will select a hundred men to form a formation, and the two sides will attack each other. The three of them also unanimously passed, which was to examine the formation of each battalion, and to cooperate with the commander of the commander and the troops.

However, Gao Shun's question is of course no problem. But Zhang Yang is a bit bitter with a gourd face, and his cooperation with his subordinates is really not good, let alone any formation.

Of course, the third question after the most Lu was made by Zhang Yang, in fact, it was Ma Chao he asked, which was compared to fighting soldiers. The content is that two battalions grab the military flag, and Lu Bu will plant a military flag in any place in the depths of the valley, and then each of the two battalions will select twenty ordinary soldiers, led by a hundred commanders, and the two battalions of soldiers will hold spears and carry bows and arrows.

Of course, the head of the spear was wrapped in several layers of cloth, and it was covered with white ash, and the arrows of the bow and arrow were cut off, and they were also wrapped in cloth, and covered with white ash. The rule is that if you are attacked by a gun or arrow to a vital part, you will die, and the soldier will automatically withdraw from the competition, and if the non-vital part of the body is attacked in five or more places, you must also withdraw from the competition, and if the leg is injured three or more times, you must withdraw from the competition. If it is not withdrawn and is reported and discovered, it will be dealt with by military law.

No matter what method the two battalions used, the side that grabbed the flag last won. However, there is a time limit, and it can only be done within the time of one stick of incense, otherwise it will be considered a loss.

This is unanimously passed, especially Gao Shun, who thinks this competition is particularly good, it can test the combat effectiveness of individual soldiers, and the degree of cooperation between Baichang and his subordinates, and there can also be strategies or something. In this way, last night, the three topics had been notified to the two battalions, and the soldiers of both battalions were all gearing up to try.

"It's time to get ready!" A tall and mighty young man in the tent said to Gao Shun and Zhang Yang.

"It should be about the same." Zhang Yang replied.

"Fengxian, what's the hurry, isn't the time yet up?" Gao Shun said to the young man.

It seems that the young man is a native of Jiuyuan in Wuyuan County, and Lu Bulu is the first. Lu Bu is majestic and magnificent, if Ma Chao is here, he will definitely say in his heart, he is so handsome. Indeed, if Lu Bu looks crooked and cracked, could it be Lu Bu among people, Lu Bu among people not only says that Lu Bu's martial arts are superb, but also that he is handsome and manly. …,

Lu Bu's height can be nearly nine feet, more than one meter nine and nearly two meters, he is tall and big, and he looks like a general of a bear and a tiger. The sound of speech is like a bell, deafening.

"Fuyi, I'm really anxious, both of your battalions have been training for two years, and today is also the time to test the results of these two years, I can't wait!" Speaking of Lu Bu's big smile, he really had a bit of arrogance.

"The time is almost up, or Fengxian and Fuyi, let's go to the school first, it's better to go early!" Zhang Yang answered.

"Good! Just listen to Uncle Zhi, Fuyi, let's go! ”

So the three of them walked out of the military tent and walked towards the school field, and after a while, the three of them came to the largest military training school, which is the place where the trap camp and the elite battalion gathered together, and it was more than enough to fit a thousand people.

By the time they entered the school grounds, the time for the competition had not yet arrived, but everyone had already assembled in the school field, and they were all waiting for the three of them to arrive.

The three of them walked to the stage, only to hear the soldiers below holding their weapons and shouting loudly: "Flying general! Flyer! Flyer! Flyer! Although the 1,000 people below belong to two battalions, the shouts are so neat, of course, they are not arranged, it can be seen that the two battalions still have some tacit understanding.

Lu Bu was very satisfied with the soldiers, and he stretched out his palms to the court, and the audience was silent. Lu Bu said loudly, "Brothers, I, Lu Feng, have come to see you today!" The voice was loud and resounding throughout the audience.

Many of the soldiers looked at Lu Bu excitedly, with the fanaticism of celebrity fans, it seems that there were also star chasers in ancient times.

"It's been two years, it's been two years! I know that everyone has been working hard for two years. Today, our two battalions are going to hold a drill and competition to test the results of our efforts in the past two years! I know you won't let me down, right, you answer me out loud! ”

"Yes, yes! We won't let the general down! The soldiers replied in unison.

"You are all hot-blooded men in my state army, let me see your demeanor today!" Lu Bu continued to shout.

"Okay, everything is up to the general!" The soldiers below shouted in unison again.

"Okay, worthy of being a man of my state army! I announce, the barracks drill competition, the first game of fighting, begin! ”

As soon as Lu Bu's words fell, Ma Chao rode out of the elite battalion, and in the camp, a deputy general also rode out.

The middle field had already been given up by the people of the two battalions, and now the eyes of the whole audience were focused on the two of them.
