Zhu Guobi, the governor of Beijing, actually felt quite uncomfortable, because according to Chen Yue's method of selecting soldiers, most of the young and strong people in the entire Beijing camp would be picked up, and the rest were only some old and weak soldiers, but fortunately, there were more than 100,000 troops in Beijing, and Chen Yue took only 50,000 people.

Even if it is not a taste in his heart, there is no way, Chen Yue bears the responsibility of annihilating the thieves and rescuing the Ming Dynasty, not to mention that the selection of tens of thousands of soldiers is to pick him Zhu Guobi away, and he can only follow honestly.

Wu Mengming, the former governor of Beijing, was transferred to Yangzhou as the governor of Yancao, and now Huaiyan is too important to Chongzhen, and the annual salt tax revenue reaches more than 2 million taels of silver, accounting for half of the national treasury revenue.

Wu Mengming was transferred, and the governor of Beijing fell on Zhu Guobi's head, since he became the governor, it is natural to drink the blood of soldiers to make money, and Chen Yue's transfer of troops from Beijing has sharply reduced the number of Beijing camps, and at the same time, Zhu Guobi's income will be reduced, but fortunately, Chen Yue promised to allow him to develop in the east, which made Zhu Guobi feel better.

In the list of the Beijing camp, there are more than 70,000 suitable people, of course, Chen Yue cannot take all these 70,000 people away, but to select another 50,000 people from them, whether they can be allowed to abide by military discipline is a very important assessment criterion. Today, for example, anyone who fails to assemble on time will be removed from the list.

However, these 70,000 men were scattered in various battalions and outposts, and it was troublesome to assemble, so it was very inappropriate to stand in line. In order to facilitate today's gathering, Gu Junen took all the staff officers and three hundred personal soldiers to prepare for most of the day yesterday.

According to the information of the soldiers on the roster, the school field is divided into three areas, and each erects a flagpole as high as three zhang, which reads "Five Military Battalions", "Three Thousand Battalions" and "Shenji Battalion" respectively, representing the three major battalions of the Beijing Battalion.

In the area to which each battalion belongs, a number of areas are demarcated, and flags are erected two feet high, marking the front battalion, the rear battalion, the middle battalion, the left battalion, the right battalion, and so on, and in each small area, a number of small squares are drawn with white ash, and only one soldier is allowed to stand in each square.

There are soldiers on duty at the four entrances of the school grounds, and the pacification envoy Shan Minglei and dozens of his subordinates are specially responsible for guiding the soldiers of the Beijing camp to line up.

Whenever a soldier enters the school grounds, he will be told to follow the flag to find his battalion and stand in one of the squares.

Although there were many soldiers who were called, although they belonged to different battalions, as long as they followed the guidance of the flag, they could quickly find their positions and stand up. Therefore, although the convening was hasty and a little chaotic, it was orderly.

Zhu Guobi was shocked to see that the speed at which the soldiers assembled and lined up was much faster than when he had been training in the past. In the past, when the Beijing camp exercised, it often took more than an hour, and some soldiers could not find their own position, and the whole exercise was chaotic, and the queue was twisted and awkward.

However, Chen Yue was very dissatisfied with the gathering of the soldiers in the Beijing camp below, seeing that it was already two o'clock, the queue was still sparse, and many people did not come.

On the table, the incense burner curled with green smoke, and the shadow of the flagpole under the high platform slowly moved to the left. It's three o'clock in the morning, and the soldiers who haven't arrived at this time are counted as late!

......

Li Gang, the chief flag officer, and his soldier Ma Zuo entered the school yard with a smile, Li Gang is the chief flag officer of the left battalion of the Shenji Battalion, but he is a butcher part-time, and his subordinate Ma Zuo is his butcher shop.

The notice was gathered at the end of the day, but Li Gang didn't know how to kill a pig with his job, and only hurriedly came to the school after washing and peeling it, but it was already a pillar of incense late.

Two soldiers armed with knives and guns approached and ordered them to stand on the side of the high platform. Li Gang was surprised to find that there was a row of soldiers who came late like him standing next to the high platform, receiving the punishment of whipping.

More than a dozen executioners with large shoulders and round waists held their whips high and whipped them, and as the whips fell, there was a miserable howl, and then they saw the tragic scene of broken clothes and flesh under the whip.

Looking at this scene, Li Gang and Ma Zuo's eyes widened suddenly.

"I'm the Seventh Rank Chief Flag Officer, but I'm a moment late, you can't do this to me!" Zizhi was familiar with the chief officer of the Shenji Battalion, and had many connections in the Beijing camp, so Li Gang struggled desperately and refused to go to the execution area.

The two pro-soldiers dragged him, but the butcher Li Gangsheng's shoulders were big and his waist was so strong that he couldn't pull it.

"What's wrong?" A general dressed in mountain armor walked over and asked with a frown.

"This general, under Li Gang, the chief flag officer of the Shenji Battalion, and the general Li of the Shenji Battalion, and Deputy General He are very familiar, can the general be accommodating and avoid the punishment of whipping. They are all military brothers, give face. Although the officer in front of him was a little embarrassed, Li Gang still had a hippie smile on his face, in his opinion, it was not a big deal to be a moment late, and there was no problem in bringing out the name of General Li to settle down.

Shan Minglei frowned and quietly looked at the tired military household in front of him, and then said coldly: "According to military law, being late for drills, resisting military law, and making noise in the school field are three crimes in one, and they should be killed according to the law!" ”

"What?" Li Gang screamed, he couldn't believe his ears. It's just a quarter of an hour late, how can you shout and kill?

"Execute it now!" With Shan Minglei's cold words, the soldiers of the Zhenfu Division standing on Li Gang's left immediately raised the spear in his hand and stabbed deeply into He Gang's abdomen. Another soldier raised his long knife and slashed it down, causing blood to spurt out of his neck as the knife fell.

"Ahh Mazo, whose face was sprayed with blood, could no longer control the fear in his heart and screamed.

"The school yard is noisy, slash!"

With Shan Minglei's words, the long knife slashed heavily towards Ma Zuo's neck.

In an instant, the two soldiers of the Beijing camp fell in a pool of blood, their heads were hung high on the flagpole, and tens of thousands of people in the entire school field were in a deathly silence, and all the soldiers looked at the two hideous human heads on the flagpole in horror.

The slightest resistance was beheaded, which made the later late soldiers honestly accept the punishment one by one, even if their buttocks were beaten by the military sticks, they did not dare to howl loudly.

All the soldiers who were late were pulled aside after punishment and set up a separate column. As for those who didn't come at all, they would be removed from the military register and would no longer be able to enjoy the food and salary of the imperial court, which Chen Yue did not tolerate. If you don't even come to the drill assembly, what's the use of keeping such a soldier?

After statistics, more than 50,000 soldiers were able to assemble on time, which was just enough to meet Chen Yue's requirements of 50,000 people.

In the face of more than 50,000 people, Chen Yue reorganized according to the queue they were standing in now, divided them into five battalions, front, back, left, right, and middle, and appointed the officers of the Beijing battalion as the commander-in-chief of the battalion sentry, and did not place his own subordinates to serve.

Then give them three days to get acquainted with their subordinates, practice the queue, and wait until three days later to leave Nanjing! ()
