The Great Qin Western Regions War Chapter 7 Forming an Army

Bashang, the camp of the New Army.

In the early morning, the morning sun is rising, and the sky and the earth are golden and fiery red. The huge barracks were shrouded in the warm morning sun, as if a flame was burning.

Today, it is neither the Spring Festival nor the Triumphant Christmas, but the entire camp of the New Army is full of lights and joy.

The reason is very simple, because today is the day when all the new armies are formed, and it is also the day when Chen Tang, the cavalry of the new army, is formed.

The eyes fell on the cavalry battalion of the new army, and almost every new soldier had a happy smile on his face, which was a kind of expectation, a kind of desire, from the content, from the blood.

"Good morning!" Morning!" The soldiers who came out of the camp greeted each other warmly, and the silence and solemnity of the usual barracks were gone, and there was only a festive atmosphere.

Chen Tang also got up at this time and was carefully dressing in the tent.

The Qin army has never liked to wear armor, which is a well-known 'stubborn disease', but today Chen Tang is dressed very neatly: he wears a cowhide round hat unique to cavalry on his head, and he wears carefully sewn cowhide armor on his body, and he ties every ribbon, which looks very spiritual and mighty.

At this moment, suddenly the tent door opened, and Song Jian and Chen Jiang rushed in.

"Chen Tang, it's not good yet." Song Jian said with a grin.

"What's the hurry, today's military appearance is very important." Chen Tang tightened the silk rope of the cowhide round hat on his chin without being harsh.

"Yes, General Guan values Chen Tangdi. Maybe Chen Tang will be awarded an official position today, of course, he has to dress up carefully. Chen Jiang squeezed his eyes at Song Jian.

Song Jian laughed: "Yes, yes."

Chen Tang smiled: "I hope." Finally, the army was reorganized and ready to leave the camp.

Suddenly, there was a roar of laughter and horses' hooves outside the tent, mixed with the exclamations of many soldiers.

"What's going on?" Chen Tang walked out of the tent in surprise, and Song Jian and Chen Jiang also followed closely.

I saw not far away. A group of more than 100 cavalrymen came, all of whom were officers.

Only then did Chen Tang remember: Today is the day of the army. These officers had come to take over the new army officially.

"Chen Tang, these officers are very majestic." Chen Jiang was envious.

Chen Tang looked carefully, and the military appearance of these officers was really unusual:

The standard sturdy figure of one color, the cold and bloody face of the subway, and the cold murderous aura and incomparable pride in the indifferent eyes, this is an officer corps that reveals arrogance from the bones, and the murderous aura of the rest of the battle is even more chilling.

"It seems. They must be battle-hardened elites. Chen Tang concluded.

Soon, the officers approached, looked at the new soldiers who were watching nearby, and said presumptuously:

"Lao Jia, what do you think of this year's new army?"

"How can it be, how can we be strong with the children of the land before."

"Hehe, what's the same, our old troops are all elites who follow His Majesty to fight in the south and in the north. What kind of hairy boy can be compared. ”

"It's the pole, it's the pole."

"Hahaha......" The officers burst out laughing, their eyes revealing a hint of contempt.

The new army is also Qin people, and they all have the belligerent and unyielding blood of Qin people flowing in their blood, and they were immediately unconvinced when they heard this, but the strict military discipline made them dare not refute it out loud.

Suddenly. Someone in the crowd shouted unconvinced: "What's the big deal, our new army will not take a step back even in the face of an enemy ten times larger than mine!"

The new soldiers cheered up and raised their arms one after another and shouted: "Qin Feng! Qin Feng! Qin Feng ......"

The deafening sound suddenly suppressed the voices of the officers, and the officers were angry, pouting and sneering: "A group of rookies who don't know the so-called!" He drove his horse away.

Chen Tang suddenly turned around and glared at Song Jian, kicked Song Jian's buttocks, and glared: "You kid doesn't want to live anymore, do you, what can you do just now, inciting the army to laugh at the officers." If you get caught. Your ass is bound to bloom. ”

Song Jian said with a grin: "Hehe, Chen Tang." Isn't it like no one sees it!"

Chen Tang smiled bitterly: "You, sooner or later, you will suffer."

"Hehe......" Chen Jiang covered his mouth and snickered gloatingly.

Suddenly, a bell of "Dang Dang Dang ......" passed over the camp rapidly, and the sound was rapid and majestic, shocking.

The army is reorganized.

Suddenly, the sergeants who were originally a bunch of people laughing in the east and a bunch of people in the west were like a stimulant, and their faces immediately became solemn, and without saying a word, they rushed to the school field in the middle of the barracks like a black torrent.

Soon, there was the first person on the huge school field, and then there were ten, hundred, and even thousand.

Without the shouting of the officers, and without the slightest noise, the new army quickly gathered together like a well-run machine, and quickly arranged into a strict formation.

This is the innate strong discipline of the Qin people, and it is also the basis for the Qin army to be invincible in the world.

Soon, a strict cavalry column was lined up on the school field, and a cold murderous aura rose into the sky, although it was a new army, it had begun to take on the fierce military soul of the Qin army.

Suddenly, a war drum rumbled and shook on the Dianjiangtai, and a large number of officers galloped from afar, and when they rushed to the Dianjiangtai, they stopped drinking and reined in together.

"Bang-" In the high-pitched sound of a million neighings, more than 100 war horses stopped in unison, showing a beautiful riding skill.

"Praise, worthy of being my Great Qin's soldiers." Chen Tang secretly praised in his heart.

"Dismount." The officer cavalry team was a mighty-looking and round-shouldered lieutenant general of Daqin, and it was Guan Yi who waved his hand and jumped off his horse first.

A large number of officers also dismounted one after another, handing over their horses to the soldiers who were waiting on the side. He lined up a neat officer corps under the stage.

Guan Yi took a few personal soldiers to stride onto the general platform, his sharp eyes glanced at the strict and mighty military appearance of the audience, nodded with satisfaction, and suddenly said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, no matter what your identity was before, but from today on, you will be an iron-clad soldier." Right now. I announce that the First Cavalry Column of the Great Qin Tiger Wing Regiment has been officially established. ”

"Qin Feng! Qin Feng! Qin Feng ......: "The new army is boiling with enthusiasm. His eyes were full of pride: he was finally a member of the glorious and invincible army of Great Qin.

Guan Yi pressed his hand, and the huge cheers calmed down for a moment: "Soldiers, our Qin army is a powerful and brilliant army. Destroy the Six Kingdoms and create the first unification; Sweeping outside the fortress, all nations surrendered, all of this is a great feat of the end of ancient times. You should be proud and proud to be a new member of this great army.

But. The honor of our predecessors is only the past, and we cannot lie on it and sleep on it, otherwise, no matter how powerful the legion, no matter how glorious the history will become. Therefore, the officers and men of the New Army, let's work hard to create our own glory. I believe that the whole of Great Qin will be proud of you. The honor of our Qin army's invincibility in the world will be extended in your hands. Qin Feng!"

Guan Yi suddenly raised his right fist and roared angrily.

"Qin Feng! Qin Feng! Qin Feng ...... "The soldiers were so excited that they only felt that the blood in their chests seemed to be boiling and splashing, and even the high-pitched cheers trembled a little.

Yes, honor and pride are the fierce soul of the invincible army of the Qin army. For thousands of years. The blood of countless ancestors of the Qin army has forged the deep and powerful foundation of this legion.

Guan Yi waved his hand again, and in an instant, the school field was quiet again.

"Soldiers, on the orders of His Majesty the Emperor, you will go to the western border of our country as a cavalry unit of the newly built Tiger Wing Legion to take on the heavy responsibility of defending your home and country. Ten days later, you will be ordered to be promoted, but you do not have officers yet, and these loyal officers in the audience are all excellent soldiers drawn from the elite legions of the Taiwei Mansion, and they will become your commanders. Fight alongside you in the years to come. Defend the supreme honor of my Great Qin with life and loyalty. Guan Yi pointed to the hundreds of officers in the audience, and his tone was very warm.

"Qin Feng! Qin Feng! Qin Feng ...... "The officers and men of the New Army welcomed these officers from afar with warm cheers.

Suddenly. The officers' waists were straighter, their eyes were more bright, and the military temperament tempered from thousands of bloody battles made them so proud and proud.

Next, Guan Yi began to publicize the appointment of each officer: soon, each ten-man lieutenant and hundred-man division of the new army had its own officer.

After a while, there was only one young officer left in the audience: this officer was wearing black armor and a pale red purple ribbon on his shoulders, and judging by his rank, he should be a captain.

Chen Tang looked at the officer carefully: he was very slender, but he appeared strong and powerful; faintly lying on the silkworm eyebrows, revealing a bit of domineering in the elegance; The face is handsome and solemn, with a faint short beard under the forehead, which looks mature and majestic; Coupled with the poignant armor and well-sworn sword, it looks murderous, but with a bit of Confucian style, it looks very unusual.

This should be the supreme commander of his own column, right? Chen Tang guessed in his heart.

Sure enough, after announcing the appointment of the junior officers, Guan Yi glanced at the entire New Army column and said with a smile: "Next, is the appointment of the supreme commander of your column. Believe, you've already guessed who it is. Guan Yi pointed to the audience: "This officer is Captain Li Kuang, after the famous family of Great Qin, from today on, he is the highest commander of your column." In the future, you must obey his orders and fight in the north and south for the honor and dignity of Great Qin. ”

"It turns out that his name is Li Kuang, after the famous family? Then which noble descendant of my Great Qin is he?" Chen Tang guessed.

At this time, Li Kuang strode to the front of the new army formation and glanced at the entire column majestically.

The strict appearance of the column made Li Kuang speechless, he nodded with satisfaction and smiled. At this time, this smile has a bit of indescribable charm, as if it is a warm spring breeze, and it is as trustworthy as a good fighting veteran.

"Officers and soldiers of the new army, Li Kuang is not talented, and he is in charge of your column by the order of His Majesty the Emperor. In the future, we should share weal and sorrow. Life and death together. I won't say much else, as long as everyone is worthy of the words 'military honor' in the future, I, Li Kuang, will be everyone's most reliable friend and brother. Qin Feng!" Li Kuang raised his arms and shouted.

"Qin Feng! Qin Feng ...... "The soldiers cheered and warmly welcomed the commander, who seemed to be very good.

Guan Yi strode down from the point general platform, and said to Li Kuang with a smile: "Brother, I will hand over this little effort to you, you have to take it with me." Don't smear my face. ”

"Brother Guan rest assured, my Li family has never had a bad seed. This new army will definitely become a powerful force in my hands. Li Kuang said confidently.

Chen Tang heard it a little strangely: It sounds like Captain Li and Guan Jun have a good personal relationship, otherwise they wouldn't be called such an old brother and brother. Who the hell is this Captain Lee?

"Hahaha, that's good, brother can rest assured that I will hand over these fierce Guanzhong children to you." Guan Yi laughed out loud, and glanced at the new army in front of him with some reluctance.

After all, this is the brainchild of indoctrination for half a year. It's like he himself took the children of the earth. Now that I am going to hand it over to others, how can I not have a deep attachment in my heart, which is the feeling of a soldier: deep and thick, tenacious and persistent.

Suddenly, Guan Yi slapped his forehead and said with a smile: "Hehe, I forgot one thing." He said loudly: "This is the last military order of General Ben to your soldiers, this is an appointment. With the permission of the Taiwei Mansion. There will be a second lieutenant officer in your new army, which is one of only a few in the new army this year. I'm sure you've guessed who it is, right?"

"Chen Tang! Chen Tang ...... "The new army immediately cheered, without a trace of hesitation or thinking.

Indeed, in the entire New Army, only Chen Tang was able to gain such respect and love from the New Army.

"Hahaha, guessed right." Uiyi burst out laughing. scolded: "Chen Tang, what about you kid, why don't you get out of here for General Ben?"

Chen Tang's mood at this time was really excited, and he couldn't bear the surging tide, strode out of the queue, and bowed down: "Subordinate Chen Tang has seen the general and Captain Li."

"Good boy, get up, from today onwards, you will be a second lieutenant. Well done. Don't discredit General Ben. Guan Yi picked up Chen Tang, laughed and patted Chen Tang on the shoulder.

"Yes. General, Chen Tang will live up to expectations. Chen Tang's face was solemn, his bright eyes were full of strong confidence, and his natural leadership made people involuntarily feel cordial and convincing.

Li Kuang looked at Chen Tang for a while, and then nodded as well: "The person that Brother Guan likes must be unusual, yes, he is a man."

"Hehe, of course." Guan Yi became proud, and said loudly: "Brother, this kid Chen Tang is a master of riding and shooting, and he is stronger than my old Guan Yi, but the difference is just training." You kid has learned from his family, take care of it more in the future, and he will definitely be a strong man for you in three or five years. ”

Li Kuang raised his eyebrows, with a look of surprise on his face, he didn't expect Guan Yi to have such a high evaluation of Chen Tang, and said with a smile: "Brother Guan trusts, brother should do his best, don't worry, I will definitely temper him seriously."

"Captain Xie Li takes care of it, Chen Tang will go to Tang in the future, and he will not give up." It was difficult for Chen Tang to seize the opportunity and immediately express his position.

"Well, do it well in the future." Li Kuang thought for a while, and suddenly said, "That's it, Chen Tang, how about you select ten sergeants from the army to serve as Captain Ben's personal team?"

Chen Tang was overjoyed, so that he could accompany Captain Li for a long time, and understand the way of commanding the troops, and hurriedly said: "Captain Xie, Captain Li, my subordinates have received orders."

"Okay, General Ben is fine now, and he will pat his ass and return to Xianyang in the afternoon. Brother Li, let the brothers go to the bar, and our brothers will also go and have two drinks, and we won't go home if we don't get drunk. Guan Yi smiled and rubbed his hands, and the throat knot chuckled up and down in his throat, obviously a little hungry.

"Okay, respectful and disobedient." Li Kuang smiled, turned around and said loudly: "The three armies listen to my orders: disband, each return to the camp, today, everyone can drink bitterly."

"Oh-" The new army immediately cheered, the Qin people were addicted to alcohol, but they were not allowed to drink in normal times, and they couldn't help but be overjoyed when they heard about the opening of the precepts.

At that moment, the soldiers who were seduced by the greedy insects scattered in the blink of an eye, and the speed was much faster than usual.

"Haha, these bunnies, they're running so fast. Brother Li, Chen Tang, let's go drink too. Guan Yi laughed and strode back to the camp with Li Kuang, Chen Tang and the pro-soldier team.

……

Midday. There was a table of good wine and food in the camp of the Chinese army.

It is said to be the best, but in fact, it is roasted whole sheep, roasted suckling pig and Datandi wine. The Qin people were not very particular about their diet, and eating meat in large pieces and drinking wine in large bowls were the happiest things they did, especially for soldiers.

Guan Yi sat down with a big grin, Li Kuang also sat on the side, and Chen Tang was now the captain of the personal guard, standing quietly behind Li Kuang to perform his duties.

Guan Yi saw it at a glance. said unhappily: "Chen Tang, what are you doing there with a pestle like a pillar?" Sit down. Drink together. ”

Chen Tang was taken aback and hesitated: "General, this is not in line with etiquette, right?"

The Qin army is highly hierarchical, and a little beyond the thunder pool can be executed, Chen Tang is in mind, how dare he be so disrespectful and inferior.

"What is rude, today into the army. On the big day, don't be so polite. I look up to you, so you can sit down for me. Guan Yi bluffed, a little unhappy.

Li Kuang also smiled and said, "Yes, Chen Tang, today is special, just sit down."

Chen Tang gritted his teeth and sat down. arched his hand: "Then the subordinates will be bold."

"Hahaha, that's right." Guan Yi was happy: "Come, the three of us today regardless of the size of the official position, just about heroes, drink!"

After speaking, Guan Yi picked up the big bowl. He drank a full bowl of liquor in one go, and then exclaimed happily, "Happy."

Although Li Kuang has the style of a Confucian general, he is also extremely bold in drinking like the Qin people in Guanzhong, and he drinks the wine in one go without changing his face.

Chen Tang picked up the big bowl, his face was a little hesitant, he was born poor, he was barely fed and clothed, and the Donai government and the neighbors were relieved, so there was no chance to drink, so the amount of alcohol has never been high.

"Chen Tang. How. Timid? It's not like I'm a man. Li Kuang laughed when he saw this, and said in a long song: "Bare chest." Holding a long blade, drinking spirits and being bold; Bold and arrogant, roaring like thunder, angrily coercing the captives to break the army of 10,000, break the army of 10,000!"

Chen Tang's pupils were bloody, and he roared angrily: "!" With the wine in his mouth and his neck raised, 'Gudu, Gudu' is a hearty drink.

"Okay, happy!" Li Kuang and Guan Yi applauded and laughed.

The spicy liquor poured into his throat, as if a fire was burning in Chen Tang's chest, and his face turned red in an instant.

"Hehe, a good man should be like this, break the enemy for 3,000 miles on the battlefield, and drink 300 cups off the field. Do it again!" Guan Yi nodded in satisfaction.

The soldiers were full of Guanyi, Li Kuang, and Chen Tang, and the three of them laughed and drank it all again.

Two bowls of spirits in the stomach, the old soup wine swelled up, bold, but a pair of eyes were brighter, and there was no longer a little restraint and twisting.

Guan Yi and Li Kuang looked at each other and smiled, picked up the sharp short knife, cut the favorite part of the meat on the roast fat sheep, and chewed it in a big gulp.

Chen Tang was not polite at the moment, and also picked up a short knife, cut off a leg of mutton, and refused to chew on it.

Li Kuang glanced at Guan Yi, Guan Yi understood, put down the short knife in his hand, wiped his mouth arrogantly, and said with a smile: "Chen Tang, do you know what His Majesty's intention is to transfer your new army to the western border to garrison?"

Chen Tang was silent, thought for a while, and said, "Your Majesty wants to use troops against the Da Yue Clan?"

Guan Yi and Li Kuang were taken aback, and Li Kuang deliberately said, "How can you see it?"

Chen Tang hesitated for a moment, and said with a smile: "Chen Tang, but it doesn't hurt to say it, let Brother Li take a look at your eyes."

"Then the subordinates will be bold." Chen Tang carefully analyzed: "Now that the four seas are peaceful and the Xiongnu are annihilated, it can be said that at least fifty years, my Great Qin will no longer have internal and external troubles in the land. According to normal practice, at this time, we should reduce armaments, encourage agriculture, reward workmanship, and create a peaceful and prosperous era.

However, according to the observation of his subordinates, although His Majesty has reduced some armaments, he has eliminated the weak and retained the strong, and has preserved the backbone. Moreover, the scale of recruitment of new soldiers is still large, and the most important thing is that the scale of cavalry in the new army is significantly larger than in previous years. Obviously, Your Majesty does not intend to stop the expansion of my Great Qin, and at this time, the best and only target is the Great Moon Clan in the west. As soon as our new army was formed, we were transferred to the western frontier, which is also confirming the conjectures of our subordinates. ”

Guan Yi and Li Kuang glanced at each other in surprise: the long-term national policy of conquering the Dayue clan is a secret that only the middle and high-ranking members of the army know. I didn't expect this Chen Tang to be guessed with some clues, it is really a keen sense of smell.

Li Kuang immediately looked at Chen Tang from the depths of his heart, and smiled vaguely: "Hehe, maybe you're right, it's not what we said anyway."

Guan Yi also smiled warmly, noncommittal.

Chen Tang was so smart, he immediately knew that he had guessed correctly, and he was overjoyed in his heart: a good opportunity to make a contribution had arrived. But he also snorted and said: "Hehe, my subordinates are also guessing, Your Majesty is my Great Qin Ancient Holy Lord, how can his mind be guessed by a person like me." General Guan, Captain Li, let's have a drink. ”

"It's pole, it's pole, drink, drink." Li Kuang said with a grin.

Guan Yi also laughed, holding a large bowl in response.

At the moment, the three of them sympathized with each other, unrestrained, and drank bitterly, but their words were much more cautious.
