(The first update, the previous chapter was changed first, and the typos are going to explode!) ）

Ye Kai's opening remarks immediately resonated with everyone, and there were more surprises, just now they were still speculating in their hearts, and the high-level may have to carry out a long period of foreshadowing before announcing the winner, singing praises to the superiors and encouraging the subordinates, this is the consistent style, it is conceivable that the meeting will once again enter the cliché routine, so many people are ready to stand for an afternoon.

However, they didn't expect the Supreme Commander to be so direct, and as soon as he came up, he went straight to the point, not giving them room to think at all, and for a while, there were whispers in the field, and the discussion of who would win on both sides escalated again, and at the same time, a sense of tension no less than that of a great enemy gradually spread in the crowd

Of course, Ye Kai will not bother with some polite and useless words, this kind of procedural bureaucratic sentences can still be saved, he skipped those high-sounding opening words, and stepped directly into the most critical issues, focusing on efficiency, which is in line with his style.

The situation off the field was not Ye Kai's surprise, there was a faint tendency to be noisy and restless, no wonder, he looked at the people on the rostrum, and after glancing at each other, he gave his answer.

"The winner is Red!"

Ye Kai's fluttering words suddenly caused an uproar, the red soldiers lagged slightly, and broke out into fierce cheers, for them this victory was a little too sudden, and on the other hand, the blue soldiers were dumbfounded, looking at each other and not knowing what to say, especially on the face of the commander Yang Yuting, the mouth under the bridge of the nose almost comically appeared a big 0 shape.

"Could this be wrong?"

After hearing the results, I am afraid that more than one of the thousands of soldiers on the blue side thought of going together with Yang Yuting, how could the blue side lose with a small advantage? Even if the final result is not obvious, the worst should be a draw, how can it be a direct defeat, the sudden defeat makes all of them a little unwilling.

"The winner and the loser are commonplace, the winning side is not arrogant or discouraged, and the losing side should be brave, as for why the result is so, this is the decision of the Supreme Command."

Ye Kai's words are very subtle, but the meaning is already very clear, this is the final word, this is the highest authority, this is the collective will of the highest level of the Praetorian Guard, what? Anything else you'd like to say? This is tantamount to extinguishing all doubts about the outcome of the defeat on the blue side.

Yang Yuting gritted his teeth, his face under the neat military hat was a little ugly, and the huge gap between the ideal and the reality made him feel like falling into an ice cellar, rubbing his fingers uneasily, and it was difficult to endure every minute and second.

"This drill focuses on preparing for war, regardless of winning or losing, marching in the rain, running long distances, in just one day, with all difficulties and dangers, all the soldiers and soldiers are meritorious people."

What kind of atmosphere is at the scene, Ye Kai can naturally feel it clearly, so he will lose no time in speaking, but the appeasement is also stopped, he doesn't want everyone to be glass-hearted, losing now is much better than losing his head in the future.

"Since there is merit, it should be rewarded for meritorious deeds, the Praetorian Guard implements a military rank system, and it is the first time that it has been transmitted to our country from the West, and those who have made military merits will be awarded titles according to the size of their merits in the future, and all official positions and promotions are related to this, and no matter can be replaced."

Ye Kai re-emphasized the importance of the military rank system, looking at the countless armored soldiers underground, he seemed to be faintly able to hear the sound of rapid breathing, full of longing. Many people's eyes lit up, and it seemed that more people were on the red side, and for the blue side, it seemed that the reward was not related to them

Ye Kai and a group of high-ranking Janissaries stepped down, which naturally attracted countless attention, and in the passionate Imperial Army song, the atmosphere at the scene became more and more hot, just like the weather.

When passing by Yang Yuting's side, the latter lowered his head and looked ashamed, this young general is only twenty-five years old this year, and this age has always been competitive and competitive, and his previous defeat has slightly frustrated his self-confidence.

Ye Kai glanced at it, remained silent, slowly walked to the center of the team, and announced loudly to the list in his hand.

"The sixth team of the blue side participated in the exercise, that is, the third team of the first standard and one battalion of the second infantry association of the Praetorian Guard, a total of 135 people, during the exercise, the combat was brave, resolute and powerful, after the consultation of the headquarters, the team was awarded the title of "sharp knife", 51 outstanding performers, each of whom was awarded a third-class green dragon medal. ”

Not only the named troops, but also everyone including the red and blue sides did not expect that the first to be awarded the medal was not the winning side, but the losing blue team.

As long as he performs well, whether he loses or wins, he treats everyone equally, Ye Kai will not engage in even sitting, courage is equivalent.

After the announcement, the military soldiers on the side brought a wooden box, in the red cloth base of the wooden box, there are metal medals, engraved on this vivid cyan dragon, polished delicate edges and corners, shining in the sunlight.

For all, it was the light of honor.

Ye Kai walked in front of every decorated soldier, saluted, returned the salute, shook hands, signaled, and hung the medal with his own hands, with strange and excited faces, I don't know whether I was nervous or excited, and they turned red.

Whenever Ye Kai hung the medal on the soldiers' uniforms, he could clearly feel that the chest under the clothes suddenly became straight, and the whole person's mental state became erect, and the golden medals were even more dazzling.

The third-class Blue Dragon Medal, also known as the Yangwei Green Dragon Medal.

The Praetorian Guard Medal is divided into five kinds of three classes and a total of 15 levels, from high to low in order to be divided into yellow dragon, red dragon, white dragon, black dragon, green dragon, corresponding to the traditional Chinese five elements color, on the front of the medal, without exception are carved a majestic and vigorous coiling dragon, which is the most important totem of the Chinese nation.

On the basis of the original medal system at the end of the Qing Dynasty, Ye Kai deleted the overemphasized dignity and inferiority level, as well as the red dragon is limited to the royal family.

Ye Kai walked up to the officers of this team, and in addition to wearing a medal, he also handed him a stacked flag, and then stopped and stared.

"What's your name?"

"If you go back to your lordship, the last general will be called Red!" The team officer said very hard.

"You're a flag man?" Ye asked.

"The last general's ancestor was cut off the flag, and now he is not a flag man." Red lowered his head.

"Flag man or not, remember, you are a member of the Praetorian Guard."

Ye Kai said, pointing to the flag in Red's hand, and said word by word: "This flag, no matter when it is for me to stand, no matter whether you leave or stay in the future, whether you live or die, this flag cannot fall, as long as the flag is there, the dead will not be a rootless ghost." ”

"Yes! The last general will follow the instructions of the adults, and the people are in the flag! People are dead! ”

Red replied conditionally, but after thinking about it, he was still a little surprised, how could this high-ranking big man suddenly say these unlucky words on such a grand occasion? But he didn't dare to speculate, and still stood like a stake.

"Okay, good work."

Ye Kai smiled and nodded, it wasn't like an order, his last words were more like some kind of hope.

"Do you know why it's called Yang Weizhang?"

"Fight bravely to kill the enemy and promote the country." After a moment's thought, Red replied.

Ye Kai didn't judge this time, he just smiled, and said after a long time: "You'll know later"

Looking at the bronze medal on the other party's chest, the smile on the corner of Ye Kai's mouth was even stronger, and on the back of it, sixteen small characters were neatly engraved with a simple bird seal.

-- In the east of the country, there is a country in the middle, and the prestige is in the world, and life and death are the same glory.

These sixteen words, clinging to the chests of the fifty-one soldiers, fell together with their surging heartbeats, and suddenly stopped.
