"All those who were not present just now were punished for standing in a military posture for one day and one night, and anyone who made any abnormal movement in the middle of the way was immediately dragged out to beat the military staff for twenty and expelled from the third team." Li Xuanqing stood there and roared angrily: "Xu Tianxiang, you lead the team to supervise." ”

As soon as this sentence came out, the color on the faces of the dozen or so people who went out with Chen Yu just now suddenly became wonderful, the method of punishing the military posture was really ruthless, this was even more ruthless than beating a military staff, for a day and a night, Chen Yu's face suddenly turned darker than the bottom of the pot, but seeing Li Xuanqing's cold eyes staring at him, he didn't dare to say anything at this time, and hurriedly bowed down to receive the order.

"No, how can the food in this camp smell meaty?" Li Xuanqing didn't know what was going on when he smelled the smell of meat, and asked deliberately.

The originally heavy aura was diluted all of a sudden, and the people below suddenly became active again, and Li Xuanqing also had a smile on his face, "Hu Xiaosi led the team to continue running, taught marksmanship in the afternoon, and the others stood in a military posture, let us take a good look at the demeanor of these heroes." Deliberately gritting their teeth while speaking, the others suddenly didn't dare to laugh anymore and hurriedly started training.

Li Xuanqing watched everyone get back on track, turned around and walked into Ma Laosan's tent.

"You're here, and it looks like you're doing pretty good." Ma Laosan was already waiting for Li Xuanqing, and when he saw him walk in, he motioned for him to sit down, and said with a smile.

Li Xuanqing sighed and arched his hand: "Thank you for forgiveness, this matter is negligent on the part of my subordinates, I have been thinking about how to train and improve my martial arts, but I have forgotten the most important military regulations and military discipline of soldiers." ”

"I don't blame you, after all, this is the first time you have experienced these things, and it is rare to be able to react so quickly." Ma Laosan waved his hand and said: "It seems that the third team is in your hands, and I am relieved, now I want to tell you about the process of this selection competition, I hope it will help you, after all, there is not much time, and you beat Old Man Zhang's guards to the ground today, and he will make it difficult for you when the time comes." ”

Li Xuanqing was stunned for a moment before he spoke: "My subordinates see that Yingzheng is not a person who will be repaid, no, and I don't have a heavy hand." ”

"Do you know why the third team has been repeatedly undrafted?" Ma Laosan did not answer Li Xuanqing's question, but instead asked something that everyone in the third team wanted to know, which was also a question that Li Xuanqing couldn't figure out, it stands to reason that although Ma Laosan was waiting for death and was unwilling to worry about military affairs, it would not be impossible to find even the most basic people, and with the relationship between Ma Laosan and Zhang Tianhu, even if he was unwilling to train soldiers, he would assign a deputy team at will, just like now.

"Actually, Old Man Zhang was forcing me before, and he wanted to use this to force me to be more careful, don't be depressed, don't languish like this anymore." Ma Laosan knew what Li Xuanqing was thinking, and slowly explained: "Since the accident ten years ago, I have applied to the new barracks, and I want to find a place to support the elderly. But Zhang Tianhu knew that I came to the recruit camp and transferred me to his command, and I didn't want to worry about recruit training, so I just wanted to do a job as a rear camp soldier. But he got the third team. You guessed what happened after that. ”

From Ma Laosan's chattering and disorganized words, Li Xuanqing also roughly sorted out the ins and outs of the third team, but what happened ten years ago made Ma Laosan suddenly disheartened? Looking at the trace of pain that occasionally flashed in Ma Laosan's expression, Li Xuanqing chose to keep silent and diverted the topic: "Then what is the process of this selection competition?" ”

Ma Laosan glanced at Li Xuanqing deeply, eased his expression and said with a smile: "Actually, it's nothing, this is all a boring idea that a few of our old guys came up with to adjust you little guys who are not afraid of tigers when they are just starting out of calves." To put it bluntly, it's nothing. There was a hint of mockery in these words, but there was a hint of a different meaning, and it was also revealing the secrets of the past.

Seeing Li Xuanqing's calm eyes staring at him, he knew what he meant by this, and Ma Laosan couldn't help but have a hint of other meaning, but he still continued to explain: "The selection is divided into three parts, team exercises, orders and actual combat simulations. He slowly continued: "Team drill is actually military appearance and military discipline, which has actually become unimportant now, and may even be canceled, so you can learn well, but the final actual combat simulation is very important." ”

"Why isn't team drill important? Li Xuanqing was a little stunned, according to his understanding, this military discipline and military appearance are the core of the army, how can it not be important? ”

Ma Laosan was silent for a long time when he heard this, and only after a while did he say in a leisurely voice: "Yes, military appearance and military discipline are the core of the army, but you are not the commander of the Lingwu Army, and people think differently from you now." The world is changing, how can people remain the same? The current Lingwu Army is no longer the Lingwu Army it used to be. ”

"Xuanqing, do you know why I'm telling you this?" Ma Laosan suddenly asked an inexplicable question, and even his tone was inexplicable.

Li Xuanqing shook his head, he actually thought about this problem, but he didn't come up with the result, although his performance during this period of time was good, but according to Ma Laosan, he came to the new barracks for ten years, even if he was discovered by Zhang Tianhu later, according to the position of the third team, but there are fifty people in each team, how many years have passed, how many people have been sent out of the new barracks, as the saying goes, how many people have been seen in the battalion over the years, why do you have a blue eye for yourself?

"Because I see in you who I used to be. Back then, I was just like you, there was a group of brothers around me, thinking that I could fight a world from the army and end this troubled world. It's a pity. Ma Laosan smiled slightly when he saw Li Xuanqing's contemplative expression, and explained: "The most difficult thing to change in this world is the human heart, and the easiest thing to change is also the human heart." ”

"Go ahead, I don't have much more to teach you. It's up to you to go forward. Don't take that so-called selection in your eyes, the Lingwu Army is no longer the Lingwu Army of the past. But I hope you can demand yourself according to the requirements of the former Lingwu Army, ask them, don't let me down, I have been disappointed once. Li Xuanqing came out of Ma Laosan's tent, but his ears were still recalling what he had just said.

What happened ten years ago to make Ma Laosan like this? According to what he said just now, it seems that the Lingwu Army has also begun to become no longer the Lingwu Army it used to be. But Li Xuanqing doesn't remember what happened in Lingzhou ten years ago, what secrets did Lingzhou hide in 876? Did Han Zun become the envoy of the Lingzhou Festival ten years ago? Doesn't it see? It seems that Han Zun became the envoy of the festival because of the coup d'état in history, right?

Coup? Li Xuanqing was startled, and his eyes suddenly became fierce in an instant, God, the old man next to him just now shouldn't have survived the last coup, right? And it has a close relationship with the supreme ruler of Lingzhou today, otherwise it would be impossible to use that indifferent tone when evaluating the Lingwu Army, as if the Lingwu Army was created by him, so it would be so casual.

Thinking about his last few words, what did he really mean? Or what does he ask himself to do? Overthrow the current Lingwu Army? But now he is just a small deputy of the recruit battalion, how can he shake the behemoth of the Lingwu Army?

Li Xuanqing forcibly suppressed the distracting thoughts in his heart, worked hard to digest these conjectures, and came back to his senses after a while. No matter what Ma Laosan's mind is, he still has to follow his own pace, and according to his own plan, this Lingzhou is not the best choice. Thinking of this, Li Xuanqing's eyes turned to the northeast again, the place a few hundred miles away is the base he chose, as for Lingzhou, let's talk about it then.

Li Xuanqing thought about it on the school field, but he forgot that there were more than a dozen "heroes" below who were neatly arranging the phalanx and standing in a military posture. Chen Yu, who was standing in the front row, saw that Li Xuanqing's face had changed since he came out of Ma Laosan's tent, and he thought something had happened? They all thought that because of their affairs, Li Xuanqing was scolded by Ma Laosan, and this time they felt even more uncomfortable. In fact, Xu Tianxiang stopped him when he rushed out, but during this time, seeing that his brothers had mastered the entire third team, and Ma Laosan was willing to give up the power of the team to let Li Xuanqing take care of it, he was a little disapproving, thinking that as long as Li Xuanqing was not to blame, it would be fine, but he completely forgot the military regulations and military discipline that he recited every night.

Xu Tianxiang took Hu Xiaosi and them back to the field at this time, and when he saw Li Xuanqing standing in front, he walked over, but saw a team of more than a dozen people with six carts coming towards him, and immediately knew that this was probably the meat that Li Xuanqing had eaten before, and hurriedly stabbed Li Xuanqing.

Li Xuanqing came back to his senses and saw that the team had arrived in front of him and walked up.

The people of the baggage team also knew that the third team had a deputy team during this time, and probably Zhang Tianhu also estimated that he had also explained, so when he saw Li Xuanqing coming, he unconsciously took a step back, bowed down and said: "The baggage team was ordered to come to the third team to deliver materials, a total of six cars, a total of one pork fan, five mutton fans, and three hundred catties of other meat products, please receive it from the third team." After speaking, he handed over the list of supplies.

Li Xuanqing glanced at it, Lingzhou is close to the grassland, and beef and mutton are extremely rich, so Li Xuanqing didn't care about the meat products and the like above, and called Xu Tianxiang to take someone to receive it, and he returned to the tent and walked out with the soul breaking gun. At this time, Hu Xiaosi and the others had also completed the task in the morning, and returned to the center of the school with people, and saw Li Xuanqing holding the soul breaking gun in his hand, knowing the task of the afternoon, and without saying much, everyone changed into spears, set up the array, and prepared to learn marksmanship.

"Marksmanship is the most important martial art in the army, and it is also the most important weapon skill for big guys to go to the battlefield in the future. Since ancient times, marksmanship is easy to learn and difficult to master, and now that everyone has learned the first style, I will teach you two styles below. After Li Xuanqing saw that Hu Xiaosi was getting ready, he began to teach everyone today's training course. Ma Laosan had a comment on Li Xuanqing's fifteen-style marksmanship before, so Li Xuanqing further simplified the fifteen-style marksmanship according to Ma Laosan's words.

The most basic moves of marksmanship are stabbing, blocking, and sweeping. Only after you are familiar with the most basic moves can you perform the most suitable moves in a sudden environment. Therefore, Li Xuanqing has asked everyone to learn these three tricks in the recent period, and only individual talented people will be tutored individually.

I saw that the Soul Breaking Spear was glowing with a silvery white cold light in Li Xuanqing's hand, but the simple three moves could bring boundless power when each move was cast, and the eyes of everyone under him jumped straight at the bottom.

"Let's start, the first move, spear thrust." Hu Xiaosi, the leader, walked steadily with his legs, and the spear in his hand stabbed out flatly. The others followed him in an instant.

Li Xuanqing walked into the middle of the field, corrected everyone's mistakes one by one, and explained the main points. The later twenty-one people did not study for as long as the previous ones, but there was an advantage, that is, Li Xuanqing would do exactly what he said, which was also the reason why Li Xuanqing deliberately taught them to practice marksmanship in front of Chen Yu, and sometimes the resoluteness of executing orders on the battlefield is of great significance.

I have to say that the people brought by Hu Xiaosi are basically around twenty years old, it is a good time to learn martial arts, strong receptivity, good physical strength, this afternoon's study, these three moves have been freely converted.

At dinner, Li Xuanqing made another bad move, asking everyone to stand in the middle of the field with rice bowls and still eat in front of the people who insisted on standing in a military posture, and now those rice bowls filled with the smell of meat hooked everyone's gluttony, and the queue that had been held for an afternoon began to loosen, but under Li Xuanqing's cold eyes, everyone was stunned and didn't dare to move.

"I emphasize again that at all times, military discipline and military regulations need to be engraved into everyone's minds, and orders and prohibitions are not empty words, but need to be done by everyone at all times." Li Xuanqing stood on the stage and roared, the sound shook in all directions, and with this roar, everyone straightened their waists and accepted this unusual lesson.

And decades later, when these surviving veterans stood at their respective posts and looked back on this day, their faces showed an expression of pride.
