Chapter Twenty-Three: The Seed of the Famous General
After watching the inhuman performances of the two chief officers, the soldiers were shocked. Any soldier who can complete the six class tests can be called the elite in the army, and as for Li Rong and Wei Chi Xiu, it is simply unheard of.
Amid the cheers of the soldiers, Li Rong smiled and rode back to the front of the army. The brigade commanders have already begun to call for the soldiers to line up and prepare for the class examination in order.
"Zuo Qianqi has just passed the class test, and there are more than 100 soldiers who can pass the middle and upper exams," Wei Chi Xiu said.
"The 100 riders selected from Zuo Qiancai, there are many flying riders and veterans, and there are many people who usually train, so it is not an exaggeration to achieve such results." Li Rong said disappreciatively.
"To be honest, you're too humble. At the beginning, when selecting soldiers, there should be a fight with reason, and more veterans should be wanted, and now it would be good if thirty people in this group could pass. Yu Chi Xiu said.
When selecting soldiers from the left and right thousands of cavalry, Li Rong did not fight for those old soldiers. Yang Zhi has been in the forbidden army for a long time, and his qualifications and connections are not comparable to a newcomer like Li Rong, Li Rong has no need to make enemies with him because of these trivial things, and it is not suitable for Li Rong to establish prestige if there are too many veterans. Therefore, there are more new pawns in the right thousand horses, and the current quality of the new pawns is not as good as that of the old pawns.
"It doesn't matter, this batch of new pawns is not bad, but they have not been trained, and they will catch up with Zuo Qianqi after a while. There are many old soldiers in Zuo Qiancai, and it is easy to become an army, but the room for improvement is limited. Li Rong said.
"Knock knock," the soldiers beat the war drums and cheered hoarsely for their comrades.
The examination training of the right thousand riders has officially begun.
"The strength of an army depends not only on the courage of a single soldier, but also on strict discipline and skillful cooperation." Li Rong said.
The results of the class examination are not unexpected, and there are only more than 20 people who can pass the upper and middle exams in the class examination, which is far less than Zuo Qianqi.
Ge Fushun performed well in the class examination, and he showed a very high level of horse archery and horse pistol, and he was also superior in foot shooting and warping weight. In addition to the excellent results of several brigade commanders, there are also several new strokes who have achieved good results, especially Dong Renyun and Dou Mingfu.
The news of the right thousand cavalry's class test soon spread throughout the forbidden army, especially the competition between Li Rong and Wei Chi Xiu was the focus of attention. Some people appreciated it, some people sighed, but Li Rong's strength was unanimously recognized by everyone. As a soldier, victory is the final judgment, and no matter what means you use, of course, the means you use should also be within the rules.
"Li Rong's mind is ingenious, far above Wei Chi's cultivation, if he doesn't take the wrong path, he has a bright future." Yuan Xingchong said to Yang Zhiyi.
"In the same way, he doesn't follow the rules, and it's hard to control such a character," Yang said.
"There are whips, hammers and daggers against horses, and if they are horses, there is no need to exist." Yuan Xingchong said.
"I hope you don't make it self-defeating." Yang Zhiyi sighed.
"If you are afraid of a strong person, you can't become a strong person," Yuan Xingchong laughed.
"I hereby order Ge Fushun, Dong Renyun, and Dou Mingfu to be the team," Li Rong said loudly while standing on the stage.
According to the previous agreement, Li Rong and Wei Chi Xiulian appointed the right thousand cavalry team leader, fire commander and other grass-roots military attachés according to the results of the class examination, and initially established a set of command system from top to bottom.
"Stand up straight, keep your head up!" Li Rong shouted loudly.
A thousand soldiers on the school field were neatly arranged, standing there in full force against the early spring sun. The bright light armor shone in the sunlight, reflecting the beads of sweat that constantly oozing from the soldiers' faces, exuding a colorful brilliance.
A quarter of an hour passed, half an hour passed, and an hour passed.
"Captain Li, what's the use of letting everyone stand here all the time and do nothing?" Yang Beifeng said loudly.
"Did I order you to speak?" Li Rong said in a deep voice, "Speak without permission, fifty military sticks, pull down and fight!" ”
The two guards quickly ran to Yang and grabbed his arms and were about to pull him down to fight.
Yang Beifeng was so angry that the blue tendons on his forehead were exposed, and he almost wanted to fight against him, but he felt the sharp gaze in Li Rong's eyes, and he helplessly let go of his fist, and let the guards pull him away.
"Bang Bang" The tiger wolf-like guards beat Yang Beifeng with fifty military sticks.
Of course, these guards are also from the original hundred riding system, and Yang Beifeng is quite familiar, that can really be ruthless, it looks very strong, in fact, the hand is not heavy, just caused some skin trauma, and came over after a day or two.
"The two of you have a deep relationship with Yang Beifeng's robe, and he is beaten to the point of flesh and blood, so it's not miserable!" Li Rong looked at it and said sarcastically, "Go down and get ten military sticks each." ”
"Captain's forgiveness!" Two guards shouted.
Li Rong motioned for two soldiers to run over and grab the two guards who were favoritism, and beat them ten times.
Two hours later, one of the soldiers finally fainted and couldn't resist it. Li Rong immediately sent someone to carry the soldiers away for treatment.
After a morning, nearly 20 soldiers fainted, and the rest were too tired to stand upright, and when they heard the order to disband, they fell directly to the ground and couldn't get up for a long time.
"What's the use of you letting the soldiers stand stupidly?" Yu Chi Xiu asked puzzled after looking at it all morning.
"Exercise their discipline," Mr. Li said.
"You can't stand this kind of iron man." Yu Chi Xiu said quietly.
"It's good to get used to it," Mr. Li said.
In the remaining few days, under Li Rong's high pressure, the soldiers of the right thousand cavalry lived a happy and miserable life.
Every day, the meat is all-you-can-eat, and the food is enough, but the amount of training is unprecedented before, and the training method is boring and almost tasteless queue exercises, which almost provoke mutiny. Fortunately, Li Rong also insisted on practicing with everyone, eating together, and living in tents together, so that the training could continue. Of course, Li Rong's superhuman strength is also an important factor, and it is a big killer to suppress the audience.
"A team of all runs ten laps around the camp!" Li Rong shouted loudly.
"It was Li Changben who made a mistake alone, why should a team of people follow him to be punished?" The first team's team leader Ge Fushun said dissatisfiedly.
"Li Chang is a team of people, your people are punished, you are embarrassed to watch!" Li Rong said.
Ge Fushun reluctantly led his fifty soldiers and began to run around the camp.
When one person makes a mistake, the whole team is punished as a rule set by Li Rong, and naturally he is cursed by countless soldiers behind his backs.
"This Li Rong's training skills are different from ordinary people, which is somewhat interesting." Yuan Xingchong, who had been paying attention to Li Rong, listened to the report of his subordinates and said to himself.
Li Rong did not let the soldiers practice foot archery, horse archery, horse pistol, etc. based on the content of the class test at the beginning, but cultivated the discipline of the soldiers, the sense of group honor, and the training of skills was secondary.
Yuan Xingchong is familiar with reading military books and battle strategies, and can be placed in the position of the commander of the Yulin Army by Wu Zetian, taking care of the guards for her, and his ability is recognized by Wu Zetian.
According to Yuan Xingchong's view, Li Rong has the essence of governing the army and has the potential to become a famous general. Li Rongneng and the soldiers eat and live together to show his benevolence, strict military discipline shows his strictness, training methods directly grasp the key points to show his wisdom, rewards and punishments are strict is faith, as for bravery, Li Rongneng will never lack to become a master of the five grades.
"Just like when we learn martial arts, no matter how advanced martial arts are, they are all composed of basic knife skills, fist skills, marksmanship and swordsmanship. The same is true for archery, horse shooting, and carbines, you have to learn to tie a horse step, learn to hold a big gun pile, and you are only one step away from passing the class test," Li Rong instructed the soldiers to practice horse stepping and hold a big gun pile.
Ma Bu and the big gun pile come from the memory in Li Rong's mind, and they are all the basic pile methods for practicing martial arts in his previous life. Horse steps to exercise waist strength, the big gun pile is to exercise the whole body, seemingly simple, but it is difficult to practice well, of course, the benefits of practicing are great, it can be said to be the introduction of boxing and marksmanship.
"Big guns! Was this helpful? Yu Chi Xiu said.
"If you practice to the flat-end spear, you feel that the gun has a few pounds and taels, and even a mosquito on it can feel it, and the marksmanship can be regarded as practiced." Li Rong said, "If you want to break through to the eight-grade subtle realm, it's best to stand up for this big gun pile." ”
Yu Chi Xiu tried the so-called big gun pile with half a doubt, and the result was quite good, and the marksmanship that had not progressed for a long time actually made a little progress, which made Yu Chi Xiu Xiao less and less aware of Li Rong.
