By the time it got dark, all the people who had signed up in the counties around Luoyang had entered the military academy, and the total number had been counted, which was more than 14,000 people. Gao Shi thought about Liu Hao and asked: "With so many people, how many are you going to eliminate in the Ming Dynasty?" ”

Liu Hao thought for a while and said: "I can't say this well, at least six thousand must be eliminated, but I don't know how many people abstained, maybe many people will leave by themselves halfway through." After all, this is more than 30 miles of road, although it is running on a cement road, there will still be many people who can't eat. ”

Gao Shi nodded: "More than thirty miles away, not to mention these newcomers who have not yet enlisted in the army, it can be said that in the entire Tang Dynasty, except for military cadets, no army can run so many roads." Let's hope there won't be any accidents tomorrow. ”

Liu Zhicai smiled: "Tomorrow, except for those who patrol or guard along the road, when they run, they will all blend into the crowd and run together." Since it is a military academy recruiting people, how can it be shown, let them know that there are people outside the world. I don't like those people who have low eyes and low hands, and keep saying that they want to open up territory for the Tang Dynasty, but they can't even carry the most basic military training. ”

Gao Shi smiled: "The military cadets who participate in running tomorrow will definitely make their eyes shine, those who have trained for half a year have already learned the tricks of body coordination, and their endurance has made great progress, which they can't compare." ”

In the campus of the military academy, the lights were bright, and all the people who signed up were waiting in a long line to prepare for dinner. It was their first meal at the military school, but for many, it may also be the last. We will gather early tomorrow morning to run, and in order to prevent these people from feeling unwell after overeating, there will be no breakfast tomorrow morning. Because of this, even if these people are full today, they will stuff things into their stomachs.

Liu Hao and Gao Shi shuttled through the crowd, looking at the faces that were still slightly immature, and both of them were laughing in their hearts. These are all good seedlings of military schools, the younger they are, the more malleable, and the longer they stay in the barracks. There are more chances to climb to the top in the future. Of course, this premise is to be able to survive the chaos without dying.

After Cen Shen received his own food, he casually found an open space and squatted on the ground to eat. He already knew the importance of tonight's meal, whether he was hungry or not. Since entering the military academy, Cen Shen has completely forgotten his identity, sitting on the ground very unsightly, chatting with those who signed up with him, completely forgetting the fact that he is a literati.

When Liu Hao found him, this thing actually talked about Liu Hao's previous things while eating. As a person who has been following Liu Hao, Cen Shen naturally knows all the things about Liu Hao, especially some of the experiences of doing business in Luoyang when Liu Hao was not yet gaining momentum, and it is a story that everyone wants to hear. This will make them feel a sense of intimacy and more grounded.

A military cadet walked up to Cen Shen and patted him gently: "The general is invited!" ”

Cen Shen wiped his mouth and got up from the ground, and saw Liu Hao and Gao Shi standing not far away, Cen Shen's face was a little red, he was talking about Liu Hao's romantic affairs, who knew that he was caught by Liu Hao.

He walked up to Liu Hao and whispered, "Brother Hao, did you already know that the younger brother was going to join the military academy?" ”

Liu Hao nodded: "I already knew it from the time you signed up." Tell you in advance, don't expect me to favor you in the early training, it's useless to find anyone in this matter, it's good for you to be strict with you now, only then you won't be cut off when you go to the battlefield. Since you have chosen a military school, you have to work hard, you know my temper, if you don't do the best in one thing, I will look down on you. ”

Cen Shen said with a smile: "Brother Hao, don't worry, I know what to do." Tomorrow's physical fitness test will definitely not disgrace you. ”

Liu Hao nodded: "It's good to know, in fact, don't eat too much at night, so you don't have to squeeze the toilet with others when you get up tomorrow morning." It's best to get up early tomorrow morning and do some warm-up exercises on the school grounds, which is more conducive to running. Tomorrow's assessment is almost thirty-five miles, don't run too fast in front, it's best to move forward at a constant speed, and you will slowly overtake until you become the leader. ”

Gao Shi also said: "Don't look at others tomorrow, just stare at the people in front of you and surpass them one by one, which will distract you from your exhaustion." Tomorrow the military academy will also have someone running with you, but hopefully you won't be too far behind. The military academy can admit the first 7,000 people at most, which means that all the later ones will be eliminated, and whether you can enter the military academy or not depends on yourself. Neither a certain nor a certain can help you. ”

Cen Shen grinned: "The two brothers can say so much, for the younger brother, they have already gone through the back door." Tomorrow's runner will definitely remember the words of the two brothers, regardless of others, only run his own. ”

There was nothing to do all night, and by the time the sky was bright, Cen Shen had already gotten up, but there were already many people chatting on the school ground, and some people didn't even sleep all night, after all, not everyone was as stress-free as Cen Shen. Nervousness before exams has been around since ancient times, especially in this kind of test that is related to the future.

The whistle blows, and the team assembles.

More than 10,000 people lined up in a line and walked out of the gate of the military academy under the leadership of the military academy officers.

Liu Hao rode on a horse, looking at this huge team, and remembered those city marathons held in his previous life, and it seemed that many people were crowded together like this. The route has been announced, starting from the military academy, running west along the official road from Luoyang to Chang'an, and setting up a checkpoint more than 30 miles away, and people who are not in a hurry on the official road will be stopped.

The fork in the official road outside the military academy was also blocked, and all people, cars and horses were forbidden to pass unless it was an emergency. Liu Hao will not give anyone the means to cheat.

When they started running, these people rushed forward as fast as herding sheep, and many people started too hard because they did not have the habit of running long distances, and several people got entangled and fell on the road.

However, there are also people who are calm and slow to speed up, bypass the crowd, and then run calmly and slowly. Cen Shen and the cadets all ran like this.

After everyone was on the road, Liu Hao and Gao Shi rode forward. This time, they have the intention that even if you reach the finish line, you will be admitted, more than thirty miles is not easy to run, at least not enough stamina is not good at all. In order to make it easier for them to drink water, the military academy has arranged many drinking points along the way, which is not only convenient for them to drink water, but also to know how many roads they have left and other things that are closely related to themselves.

After five miles, the people who rushed to the front lost their popularity, and they were dejected to find that they couldn't move on their legs at all, and their chests felt like a big rock had fallen, and they couldn't breathe at all. On the other hand, some people, two mouthfuls, two mouthfuls and two mouthfuls and one inhale, move forward very regularly. These people have been surpassed in the beginning, and there are even cadets in military uniforms. Many people are laughing at it, the cadets who have been blown into myths are at this level?

No one laughed at them anymore, because the cadets had now begun to surpass, still the kind of people who were unhurried and unsquinting, forming a formation that constantly surpassed the people in front. It didn't seem like they were running fast, but they were still overtaking them step by step.

At the finish line, Liu Hao looked at the still empty road and said: "I'm worried about whether someone will forcibly run and have an accident, in this case, the military academy will be responsible." ”

Gao Shi smiled: "When I signed up, I already told them that life and death were fateful, as long as they entered the gate of the military academy, they would face the threat of death at any time." That's all we can do, they force their runs regardless of their bodies, and it's no wonder that we don't blame us. ”

Liu Hao sighed: "That's what I said, but you have to know that if these people have an accident, they will all be counted on us in the end." It doesn't matter once or twice, but once there are too many accidents, the prestige we have accumulated in front of the people is gone. ”

Gao Shi thought for a while and said to Liu Hao: "In that case, for my brother, I will send people to shout along the way now, once they feel unwell, they will stop running immediately, people's lives are at stake, and I believe that no one will not value their lives." ”

Liu Hao nodded: "That's the only way, I hope they don't have too strong utilitarianism." Stop walking when you feel unwell, don't keep running, and don't stop immediately. Only walking can relieve the discomfort of the body and allow the body to relax. ”

In fact, in order to prevent accidents, Liu Hao arranged a carriage from SF Express at each drinking point, which were emergency measures, but Liu Hao felt that it was not enough. Now that time is pressing, this is the only way to go.

Halfway through the journey, now the cadets are far ahead, and they are still running forward at the same pace, with their breathing, at a constant speed. The people behind followed them sparsely, including Cen Shen.

Because he knew the number of places to be recruited, Cen Shen was not in a hurry, all he had to do now was to follow the cadets, and there was no need to rush too much. Now the distance is still average, and he has to save his strength. For those who complained while running, Cen Shen didn't even look at it now, and he wouldn't miss any opportunity to conserve his strength. Now Cen Shen is very grateful for what Liu Hao and Gao Shi said to him last night, and he didn't think so last night, but when he ran today, he found out that what they said was absolutely good.

The people who rushed to the front at the start are completely invisible, and the people who run at the front are the ones who are behind at the start. All of these people have one thing in common, which is running without saying a word.

At the back of the line, followed by a large carriage, several teams of Jin Wuwei guarded by the carriage, and at a glance they knew that the people in the carriage were not simple.

Li Longji and Li Hong were sitting in the carriage, looking at the people outside the window, Li Longji smiled and said to Li Hong: "Hong'er, did you also experience this when you trained in the military academy that day?" ”

Li Hong nodded: "Long-distance running increases endurance, and the first training for every military cadet when he gets up in the morning is long-distance running." However, due to other training, running was only a little more than ten miles at that time. This thirty miles, Erchen has not run. ”
