Emperor Guangxu nodded and said: "Well, I have also heard Nie Shicheng and Lao Aiqing mention this person many times, it seems that he is indeed a talent, and when the Sino-Japanese war stops for a while, the Queen Mother and I will personally summon him and entrust him with important tasks." Today, what Lao Zhongtang said, every sentence is reasonable, if Japan is really as Zhang Yi said, to promote peace with war, naturally it is the best policy, I am tired in the Qing Dynasty, it is the season that needs to recuperate, it is not appropriate to cause more trouble, provoke the suspicion of the Western powers. I hope that Nie Shicheng and Ding Ruchang, the two Aiqing, will pay more attention to national affairs, win the class as soon as possible, and calm their hearts. Today's court meeting is here, and Lao Zhongtang still has to stay in Beijing for a few days in case I consult with the Queen Mother. ”

Li Hongzhang replied: "The minister obeys the order, but now that the war is urgent, the minister should not stay in Beijing for a long time, and he needs to go back to Tianjin to sit in Haijiang, and he can't always accompany the holy driver, so please ask the queen mother and the emperor to be more considerate." ”

Guangxu said in a low voice: "In this way, let's disperse." Master Weng and Lao Zhongtang dined with me and the Queen Mother. ”

The courtiers thanked each other and dispersed.

North Korea, Kaesong.

Zhang Yi was entrusted by Nie Shicheng to start the training of 30 battalions of the Qing army, and in less than two months, it was not easy to raise the combat effectiveness of the Qing army to a higher level.

Zhang Yi transferred all the backbones of the Blue Wolf Brigade, arranged them into various large battalions, and began comprehensive training, while he began to prepare to select the elite and reorganize the Blue Wolf Brigade.

Within a few days, Zhang Yi and Tan Feng selected 600 strong recruits from the army, all of whom were in their early twenties. Zhang Yi looked at these still immature faces, and nodded secretly in his heart, this will be the new force that will outline the rise of China in his future, and they are the cornerstone of his dream to realize!

Under the entrustment of Nie Shicheng, Zhang Yi began a new round of training, just a little more than a month of recuperation, wanting to twist these troops into a rope, in a progressive way to improve combat effectiveness, how easy it is to say, the various departments are not subordinate to each other, but the Sino-Japanese war, these Qing troops gathered together, secretly, not convinced by each other, that is a normal thing.

Fortunately, some time ago, Zhang Yi had already anticipated today's situation in addition to training, and in his spare time, he compiled a simple army training regulations, which were concise and to the point, and selected the essence of the army regulations in the future, and made key arrangements, which really helped Zhang Yi in his training.

However, even so, the Blue Wolf Brigade infiltrated the large battalions of various departments, and there were still many officers and soldiers who did not obey the discipline, and Zhang Yi felt a headache. When Zhang Yi and Nie Shicheng and others were anxious, a telegram from the imperial court came, and Nie Shi was promoted to become the secretary of the military department, given the sword of the Son of Heaven, and had full authority to supervise the war of the imperial court.

When the news spread, Zhang Yi and Nie Shicheng were overjoyed.

Zhang Yi crossed his heart and handed down an order, gathering all the members of the blue wolf brigade to admonish: "******, how Lao Tzu trained you at the beginning, you will train them for me, and those who are disobedient will be shot directly, and those who dare to obstruct the training of the whole army will not be merciful!" A month and a half, a little more than a month and a half at most, the Japanese army will make a comeback, there is not much time left for us, in a month, I want to see the results of the training, if I am not satisfied, see how I clean up your group of ****, when the time comes, I will conduct a whole army exercise, ranking last, I want him **** to do push-ups for me all night! Disband, each back to the camp! ”

The wolves who got Zhang Yi's order, did not dare to slack off, returned to their respective camps, and began hellish training, this group of soldiers were made miserable, all day, either a rapid march, or a fight, and then there was a lighter shooting training, there were more than 1,000 old, weak, sick and disabled people who could not support it, and were directly asked by Zhang Yi to ask Nie Shicheng, sent a little entanglement, and sent back to China.

How can a group of soldiers allow these blue wolves to "act as a blessing" and keep making trouble, but as a result, they are all obedient to the blue wolves. These people are not comparable to each other, in terms of martial arts cultivation, they are not the best, but when it comes to effective technical strikes, one blow is fatal, then they are definitely masters among masters. What Zhang Yi taught them were simple and direct fighting techniques, and after a few faces, they were beaten to the ground, motionless. As soon as the blue wolves made a move, they shocked a group of Qing troops so that they no longer dared to talk nonsense. During this period, several unconvinced sentry officers took the lead in gathering a crowd to make trouble, and the blue wolf was merciless, raising his hand to shoot a shot, killing two on the spot, and the other two were dismissed on the spot and rushed back to China. Zhang Yi's harsh methods of training the army finally made this group of soldiers and ruffians honest, and they didn't dare to make trouble anymore, bear with it, who let us not have a big fist, this one has the grace of Governor Nie, and the training matters are all decided by Zhang Yi!

A month of training, so that these Qing army although did not produce a reborn change, compared with the blue wolf, far away, but also greatly improved the combat effectiveness, no longer a group of guerrilla scattered brave, wilted heads, at least have the courage to fight, high morale, compared to the previous training army under Nie Shicheng is only strong but not weak, as for the veterans of the battalions under Nie Shicheng, they have long since experienced the Battle of Kaesong, the achievement of the iron-blooded hero, even if it is placed among the Western powers, it is also a strong force.

However, compared to the new version of the Blue Wolf Brigade trained by Zhang Yi himself, the training of the Qing army is just an appetizer, which is a big dish.

Zuo Guigui has always had a high prestige in the Qing army, and he is known as a madman, and his army and Nie Shicheng's Lutai Training Bureau are known as the Huai Army. Zuo Guigui's prestige is still above Nie Shicheng, but Zuo Guigui did not catch up with the Sino-Japanese war, and was surpassed by Nie Shicheng in terms of official rank.

Zuo Guigui is quite obsessed with military training, and is even more interested in the blue wolf brigade trained by Zhang Yi, as long as he has free time, he will be by Zhang Yi's side, for Zhang Yi's rigorous training, the old army gate was stunned, and those young men who had just joined the army were tortured by Zhang Yi to death, and the old army was very distressed.

However, since Zhang Yi was appointed by the imperial court as the chief teacher, he did not add a beak, but just silently observed with the army. After more than half a month, Zhang Yi's training results began to be revealed, the high combat power of these new blue wolves was really breathtaking, Zuo Guigui was full of praise, and he no longer felt distressed before.

However, Zhang Yi was scolded in the army, and the Qing army hated and feared this chief teacher, calling him Hades Zhang, and even some of the pipe bands were released, one day, if Zhang Yi fell into his hands, he would definitely let him experience the next devil training that life is worse than death, so that he would know what retribution is!
