Wang Quan's meaning is to let the soldiers of the two general flags face off directly, which can not only shorten the assessment time, but also allow the soldiers to experience confrontation, and by the way, test the ability of each small flag officer to lead the troops.

As soon as the two chief flag officers went back and said, Liu Yunshui suddenly jumped up, the nine soldiers under his command were already proficient in military discipline, and they could be invincible no matter how they faced off with that small flag, "My lord, let's let the small flag come first!" He looked at Li Zicheng from several people, his eyes were reluctant to leave for a long time, and he was naked and provocative.

How could Li Zicheng not know his intentions? didn't look at him, clenched his hands into fists, and said loudly to Chen Chuan: "My subordinates are also willing to come first!" ”

Chen Chuan smiled slightly, "Zicheng, let the soldiers not be nervous, don't smear my face!" ”

Li Zicheng nodded and signaled to Chen Chuan: "Don't worry, the soldiers will never embarrass the adults!" ”

The soldiers of his small banner, and the soldiers of Liu Yunshui's small banner, lined up in two long lines, standing in front of Wang Quan one-on-one, reciting "Seventeen Laws and Fifty-four Cuts", next to Li Jun was also assessing the other two small flags, the two chief flag officers Chen Chuan and Ma Ke were all around Wang Quan, and Li Jun's side was not very concerned.

After nine rounds, eighteen soldiers can memorize military discipline, if compared to proficiency, Li Zicheng's soldiers have a slight advantage, almost every round of duels, the time is less.

But they are recruits, and the content of the assessment is whether they can recite military discipline, as for the degree of proficiency, there is no requirement for the time being, as long as there are no typos, according to such assessment standards, the two sides are considered to be tied.

Liu Yunshui looked at Li Zicheng proudly, this time he finally didn't lose, for him, a draw was a completely acceptable result.

Li Zicheng took a step forward, clasped his fists with both hands, and saluted Wang Quan, "My lord, this round of assessment is not over yet!" ”

Wang Quan was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, "The soldiers are so skilled, the little flag officer will never be inferior to the soldiers, right?" Anyway, you two little flag officers will carry it again in front of Lord Ben, and it will also open the eyes of the soldiers. ”

Li Zicheng coughed and cleared his throat, Liu Yunshui suddenly became embarrassed, his face rose as if he was smeared with pig's blood, he glared at Li Zicheng fiercely, but Li Zicheng turned a blind eye, leaving his sword with nowhere to focus.

"Let's go!" Wang Quan's personal soldiers snorted with a straight face.

"One: Hearing the drum does not advance, the gold does not stop, the flag cannot be raised, and the flag is not subdued, this is called rebellion, and the offender is beheaded;"

"Second: the name should not be called, the time is not enough, the time is not violated, and the law of the teacher is changed, which is called a slow army, and the offender will be beheaded;"

"Third: Spreading the battle at night, neglecting and not reporting, even more planning and disobedience, and the voice is unknown, this is called slacking the army, and the offender will be beheaded;"

……

Li Zicheng did it in one go, and blurted out the seventeen laws and fifty-four slashes, and when he finished reciting them, Liu Yunshui memorized the twelve laws, and all eyes were on Liu Yunshui's body at this time.

Liu Yunshui was in a hurry, fine beads of sweat suddenly appeared on his forehead, and when he memorized the fifteenth law, he actually said "escape" as "escape", Wang Quan's personal soldiers bent their thumbs and recorded his first typo.

After the fifteenth law, Liu Yunshui began to stutter until he stood in the cold wind, unable to say a word with his mouth open, as if someone had choked his neck, and it seemed that he was stuck.

Marco was angry and reprimanded him to his face: "Bastard, how did you become a little flag officer?" It's not even as good as your own soldiers! ”

In good conscience, Liu Yunshui's soldiers in this small banner are generally good, although they are slightly worse than Li Zicheng's small banner, but they are much stronger than other small banners, and half of the other eight banners can fully recite "Seventeen Laws and Fifty-four Cuts", not to mention the understanding of the content.

Wang Quan shook his head and didn't speak, Liu Yunshui took his small flag and silently returned to the place where he was lined up just now, but the corner of his eye was staring at Li Zicheng deadly, if his gaze could be as good as a sword, Li Zicheng would have been pierced a long time ago.

The second assessment is naturally long-distance running, saying that it is an assessment, Wang Quan and Li Jun did not give a standard, what they meant, that is, let 100 soldiers go to the same training ground, and if they can run the whole course, they will pass the test.

But Liu Yuanshui begged Wang Quan to give him another chance, he wanted to defeat Li Zicheng's little flag on the training ground.

Li Zicheng felt strange, in the training ground, you have never won against me, you can't do it as a little flag officer, can your soldiers still win me? But I heard Liu Yunshui say: "...... This assessment is for the entire small flag, just like the military discipline assessment just now, one to one, see the real chapter on the training ground, and ask the adults to fulfill! ”

One against one, aren't you afraid that I will adopt the method of Tian Ji horse racing? Li Zicheng was puzzled, but he heard Wang Quan smile and said: "Yes, this is indeed a method, you were going to challenge Li Zicheng last time, and this time it happened to be an opportunity to let the twenty soldiers of the two small flags play together, Zicheng, how about it, dare to accept the challenge?" ”

Twenty soldiers are on the same track, Tian Ji's horse racing method is not good, at this time, how can Li Zicheng retreat? It was Li Guo, who also clenched his fists, but Li Zicheng understood that the soldiers under his command really had to be compared, the first place was against the first place, and the second place was against the second place...... My side really doesn't have an advantage.

I don't know what the reason is, the soldiers assigned by Li Zicheng this time, except for Li Guo, who was brought by him, the rest of the soldiers are generally slightly worse than other small banners, He Xiaomi is not yet sixteen years old, and he is the youngest soldier in the whole battalion.

Although he was relatively strict in the training of soldiers, in twenty days, the progress was still not obvious.

Thinking of this, Li Zicheng smiled slightly, hugged his fists to Wang Quan, and said: "My lord, my subordinates are willing to accept the challenge and let the twenty soldiers of the two small banners walk on the training ground together, but my subordinates have a question to ask Lord Liu." ”

Liu Yunshui challenged him, that is, he put his own small flag under Li Zicheng, just like a boxing challenge, others challenged the boxing champion, when he didn't fight, Liu Yunshui had already degraded himself, at least in Wang Quan's eyes, why wouldn't Li Zicheng do it?

Without waiting for Wang Quan to reply, Liu Yunshui hurriedly said: "If you have anything to say, adults are still waiting for the assessment!" "He's obviously impatient, he's just lost a point in military discipline, and now he's desperate to get it back.

Li Zicheng was unhurried, and said word by word: "Lord Liu, if you use ten wooden planks to form a bucket, may I ask how much water the bucket can hold, and which plank determines it?" ”

This is not a brain teaser, but Liu Yunshui has no experience in later generations, so he naturally doesn't know the ready-made answers, especially the questions are more lively, he didn't know where to start for a while, so he glared at him, and said angrily: "What messy bucket plank, what does it have to do with today's assessment?" Let's get to the point, if you're afraid, then change people! ”

"My lord," Li Zicheng turned to face Wang Quan, "This question has a lot to do with today's assessment, and my subordinates have the courage to ask my lord to wait for a while, so that Lord Liu can answer this question first!" ”

Wang Quan pretended to frown, made a thoughtful look, touched his chin again, and suddenly felt joy on his face, as if he had found the answer, but turned his eyes to Liu Yunshui, "Yunshui, you can answer quickly, the assessment is not for a while." ”

Liu Yunshui squeaked, but he couldn't answer why, so he had to push the question back, "Then according to you, which plank should it depend on?" ”

Li Zicheng's soldiers immediately burst into laughter, although they didn't know the answer, but their little flag officer must know, at least better than Liu Yunshui.

"My lord, my subordinates have heard the ancestors say a 'bucket rule'," Li Zicheng bowed his hand to Wang Quan, and glanced at Liu Yunshui from the corner of his eye, "Use ten wooden planks to form a bucket, how much water the bucket can hold is not determined by the longest plank, nor by the medium-length plank, but by the shortest plank." ”

"What's the shortest plank? Isn't the longer the plank, the more water it holds......" Liu Yunshui suddenly found that he had misunderstood Li Zicheng's meaning, and without waiting for everyone to laugh at him, his face was already red like a boiled lobster, but fortunately, his complexion was already a little dark, and it was not too obvious in the black.

Wang Quan had already woken up and couldn't help laughing, "It's exactly this truth, the 'Bucket Rule', this is the first time Lord Ben has heard of it." ”

Although Liu Yunshui was embarrassed, he was still unconvinced, "What kind of bucket is this, and what does it have to do with the assessment of adults?" Li Zicheng, don't make extraneous branches. ”

"Naturally, it has a relationship," Li Zicheng put his hands behind his back, looking complacent, "The military law says that the drum should be advanced, and the flag should be down, but the speed of an army's charge or concealment is not determined by the soldiers who are fast, but by the soldier who is the slowest. ”

When Li Jun heard this, he looked at Li Zicheng and bowed slightly, but he didn't say a word.

Li Zicheng continued: "If it is a rapid march, the biggest reason for the army's attrition is not the enemy's ambush, but the soldier's fall, and the lag starts with the slowest soldier. ”

Liu Yunshui was still unconvinced, but he couldn't say anything, "But, it's ......"

"It's nothing," Li Zicheng interrupted him, "You also said just now that today's adult assessment is the entire Xiaoqi, and the training ground is true, but we should be comparing the slowest soldier," and looked at Wang Quan again, "My lord, do you think this is the truth?" ”

At this time, Wang Quan wanted to oppose Li Zicheng's suggestion again, which meant that he didn't know anything about the "bucket rule", and he laughed dryly, "Hehe, just do what Zicheng said!" ”

Li Zicheng usually trains soldiers as a group, and there is no suspense about the result of such a competition, and the twenty soldiers have all completed the whole race, but the two soldiers who fall behind are Liu Yunshui's small banner.

Liu Yuanshui's face was blue, and he couldn't wait to stab the two soldiers out of a few holes with his eye sword, and the two soldiers who "broke into trouble" knew that they were guilty, and stood at the back of the team without saying a word, no matter how Liu Yunshui used the eye sword, he just refused to raise his head to accept the move.

Wang Quan smiled, and didn't blame Liu Yunshui, but just gestured to Li Zicheng with his eyes: Do a good job, brother is optimistic about you!
