Chapter 116: Recruiting Soldiers

The three major battalions of Tieling, Zhang Qi, the commander of the Fenzi Battalion, the commander of the Yongzi Battalion, An Wanshan, and the commander of the Zhongzi Battalion, Zhang Baoguo.

All of them are generals raised by Ye Xun himself, and the Sharp Knife Battalion is an independent special operations unit, although the uncle who commands Cao Bianjiao is under Xiong Tingbi, Cao Bianjiao can be pulled by Ye Xun, so it can also be regarded as Ye Xun's descendant.

Qi Bingzhong's level is not low, but he has been by Ye Xun's side for a short time, and Ye Xun plans to observe it first, and then form a battalion and hand it over to him to command.

Kindness is kindness, leading troops is not a trivial matter, you must have real skills, Ye Xun can rest assured that the army will be handed over to him.

Today is the day of the expansion of the Sharp Knife Battalion, and the original 200 people are far from meeting the needs of the operation, so Ye Xun simply set the number at 1,000 this time, Cao Bianjiao is still the commander, and Qi Bingzhong is temporarily his deputy.

Qi Bingzhong is also a very smart person, he didn't look down on Cao Bianjiao because he was younger than him, nor did he have the slightest displeasure because of Ye Xun's arrangement, and he has always been very serious about completing the tasks assigned to him.

Qi Bingzhong's performance made Ye Xun very satisfied, and he was immediately ordered to be responsible for training recruits.

The selection of the sharp knife battalion is extremely strict, not only must the physical fitness be excellent, but the family background must also be innocent, Ye Xun wants a fist army, so he must be absolutely loyal.

And because of the high salary, the sharp knife battalion is the most valued by Ye Xun, so there are a lot of young people who come to sign up, and there are even soldiers from other military camps, and the scene is extremely hot for a while.

After Qi Bingzhong came, he had already gone deep into the army, and the elite and good atmosphere of the Tieling army were all deeply attracted to him, an army that can fight is called an army, not to mention that the officers bully the soldiers, don't even think about it, because every soldier knows that if someone dares to bully the soldiers, the hero in their minds, Ye Gonggong, will definitely stand up for them.

Being in such an army has always been Qi Bingzhong's dream, so how can he care about the level of his official position? After receiving the task, he devoted himself to the selection of soldiers.

Cao Bianjiao is more than brave, but not calm enough, and now with Qi Bingzhong, he can make up for this shortcoming.

It can be said that Ye Xun's arrangement, the happiest person is not Qi Bingzhong, but Cao Bianjiao, because he can finally be the shopkeeper.

Gao Ying reported like Ye Xun before, and the people who have fled from all over the country, plus the original soldiers and civilians in Tieling, the total number has reached nearly 100,000, so there is no worry about the source of soldiers at all.

Ye Xun walked around the selection site of the Sharp Knife Battalion for a while, and then went outside the city, because Altan had also begun to recruit Mongols.

Ye Xun remembered that when Zhu Di was martyred, Duoyan Sanwei's iron cavalry made a lot of efforts.

In terms of horsemanship, the ethnic minorities in the north can be said to have innate superiority, which cannot be questioned, so Ye Xun wants to make a cavalry that can really fight with women as soon as possible.

On the Mongolian side, the selection is much simpler, as long as you can ride a horse and wield a knife, and there is not much age limit.

Seeing this scene, Ye Xun's brows couldn't help frowning, it seems that if he wants to completely control this army in his hands, he can't just use the Mongols, do you have to send them some Han generals?

Thinking of this, Ye Xun couldn't help but regret a little, it was better to send Qi Bingzhong, at least he was more reliable than Altan.

Altan still has the style of the horse bandits, seeing that Ye Xun seemed to be a little unhappy, he hurriedly said: "Don't blame the father-in-law, these are rough people, and the subordinates will slowly rectify them."

Altan's words reminded Ye Xun that the Mongols have always worshiped heroes, so he might as well teach them a lesson first.

Thinking of this, Ye Xun smiled and said: "I have heard that there are many warriors in Mongolia, our family has nothing to do today, and my hands are a little itchy, you go and tell the warriors, if there is someone who can defeat me, I will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver."

Ye Xun originally wanted to say that the reward was 10,000 taels of silver, but he was afraid of scaring Altan, and if he set the number so high, it would seem unreal.

Hearing Ye Xun's idea, Altan was startled, others didn't know, he had learned Ye Xun's skills, how could these Mongolian men who could only wrestle with knives under his command be Ye Xun's opponents?

I just wanted to say no, but when I saw Ye Xun's smiling expression, I suddenly understood that Ye Xun was here to Liwei.

Thinking of this, the words that had already reached his lips changed directly, and said: "Since my father-in-law is interested, my subordinates will arrange it immediately."

After Altan finished speaking, he turned around and whispered a few words to the guards beside him, and after the guards received the order, they immediately ran to the place where the soldiers were recruited.

Soon, Ye Xun wanted to compete with the Mongolian warriors, and the news that he had won Ye Gonggong and had a heavy prize spread among the Mongolian warriors.

There must be brave men under the heavy reward, and these people have only heard that Ye Xun is very powerful, and few people have really seen it, so as soon as the news came out, it immediately caused a sensation among the Mongols, and some brave and powerful warriors came to sign up, and in a blink of an eye, there were hundreds of people who wanted to learn from Ye Xun.

Seeing this scene, Ye Xun couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart, he knew very well that although these Mongolians had the intention of competing, but also because their lives were too embarrassing, if there was no help from the Tieling government, some people would have starved to death long ago.

It must have been too late to build a temporary high platform, Ye Xun asked Altan to find a few tables, and then jumped on them.

After hugging his fists and bowing to the four sides, he said loudly: "Today Ye will meet friends with martial arts, and my father knows that Mongolian warriors are better at wrestling, so my father also uses wrestling to meet friends, and those who win will not only have a heavy reward, but also enter our father's personal guards, come on!" Which one came first? ”

Listening to Ye Xun's words, the Mongolian warriors who were watching around suddenly clamored, although a thousand taels of silver is a lot, but if you can enter Ye Xun's personal guards, then you can be regarded as holding an iron rice bowl.

And after hearing that Ye Xun was going to use wrestling to compete with Mongolian warriors, Altan also put his mind at ease, because wrestling is different from the Central Plains martial arts, although Ye Xun's martial arts are powerful, but wrestling is not necessarily powerful, right?

Altan doesn't know that martial arts in the world have the same goal, although wrestling requires certain skills, it is difficult for Ye Xun, because in the sanda of later generations, wrestling is also integrated into it, so for Ye Xun, wrestling is not unfamiliar.

With Ye Xun's words, a tower-like Mongolian man walked out of the crowd, and then jumped onto the stage with an arrow step.

When the Mongolian warriors around saw this person appear, they immediately burst into cheers.

This Mongolian man's name is Komur, not to mention his physical strength, and his riding and archery skills are also extremely high, and he is a famous man among the Mongols.

As soon as Ye Xun heard the shouts around him, he knew that this person must be very prestigious among the Mongols, and said in his heart that it was you!

Ye Xun has a lot of things, how can he compete with those Mongolian warriors one by one, what he wants to do is to deter these Mongolians, so a few people are enough.

He made a gesture to Komur and said, "Please! ”

Kuomur didn't look stout, but he was a very grateful person, he knew that it was the Ye Gonggong in front of him who gave them a place to eat and live, so he bowed to Ye Xun first, and then roared and pounced on Ye Xun...
