Chapter 63: Han Xin's Promotion (1)
Now all the soldiers in the Bashang battalion have not yet started the training of the battle formation, so naturally they can't all be pulled into the field to have a head-to-head duel, which has no effect!
What's more, the reason why Hu Hai made the real military exercise in advance was mainly for Han Xin!
Today's Great Qin is not the original history of Liu Bang at that time, Liu Bang was defeated by Xiang Yu at that time, and he couldn't be defeated anymore, and all the soldiers under his command fled if they could, leaving a group of remnants around him.
At that time, Liu Bang would listen to Xiao He's words so happily and worship Han Xin as a general. Isn't it the mentality of treating a dead horse as a live horse doctor! Liu Bang's situation at that time naturally couldn't be compared with Daqin!
Which commander of the Great Qin who can lead the army alone is not a high-ranking person? For example, Meng Tian, Wang Li, Feng Quji, Zhang Han, Li Xin and others. These people are either the three princes and nine kings of Great Qin, or they are generals with outstanding military achievements!
And what does Hanshin have?
In terms of age, he is still a young man in his twenties!
If you want status, he is the head of a cloth!
If you want to make war achievements, he has never led the army to fight, how can he get war achievements?
……
In this way, it can be said that Han Shin has nothing from any point of view. The only one who can take the shot is estimated to be Wei Yi's students, but what about Wei Yi's students?
The soldiers of the Great Qin advocated bravery and military exploits. Even if Han Xin is a student of Wei Yu, who is a national lieutenant, it is impossible to convince the public!
Of course, Hu Hai can naturally issue an edict to directly appoint Han Xin as the main general, even if the generals in the army, including the soldiers, are dissatisfied, I think that Hu Hai's prestige in the Bashang camp can be just as successful!
But the main general Han Xin can be the one, and when the expedition is out, it is a question whether the lowly generals can obey him!
Discord between generals has always been a taboo in marching and fighting, if Han Xin's army really appears that the generals are not in harmony, then I am afraid that Hu Hai will not have to think about how to quell the chaos, but how to keep the undefeated!
So Hu Hai thought about it, and decided to take out the actual military exercise in advance, just so that Han Xin could convince the public. Of course, this is naturally indispensable to try Han Xin's real ability!
If Han Xin was really a military wizard as he was in the original history, he would naturally be able to shine in this exercise that was extremely close to actual combat, and he would naturally have a basis for Hu Hai to order him to lead the army later!
If Han Xin is a straw bag, then Hu Hai is not to blame, and Hu Hai of the province buried the army that spent money and food training in the hands of Han Xin. It can be said that everyone is happy!
Hu Hai took great pains to ensure that Han Xin could lead the army smoothly! Of course, Han Xin naturally didn't know all this!
May 6 of the first year of Great Qin II!
After breakfast, the first and second battalions, with a total of 2,000 soldiers, left the Bashang battalion! Of course, the two battalions are not in the same direction, their target is the area of Bagong on the south bank of the Wei River!
Since the Black Ice Platform was taken over by Hu Hai, there are not many people in the Ba Palace, of course, the four lieutenants of the two, three, four, and five are still stationed in the Ba Palace, and at the same time, the new dead soldiers are still training in the Ba Palace!
The area around Bagong, which is vast, flat, densely jungled, sparsely populated, and close to the camp on the Ba Shang, is suitable for the exercise. So Hu Hai didn't hesitate to choose Bagong as the location of the exercise!
Hu Hai led hundreds of generals above the rank of captain of the battalion, such as Win Yi, Wei Yi and Wang Gan, all the way to the high platform set up by a Win Yi leader in Ba Shang in one day and one night!
The high platform is on a hundred-zhang high soil slope, from here you can overlook the boundary of more than ten miles above the ba! What's more, the first and second battalions are both at the foot of this small mountain, and the straight-line distance is probably less than three miles, so everyone on the mountain can still see it very clearly.
Han Xin's first and second battalions are on both sides of the hill, and the distance is about ten miles, of course, the first battalion and the second battalion don't know where the other party is, which is also a special request from Hu Hai for his real surname!
The weapons used in this exercise are all wooden, including the crossbow arrows have been lowered, and all the weapons, including the crossbow arrows, are wrapped in cloth, and the cloth is stained with white ash.
Hu Hai looked at the two battalions of soldiers who had been prepared on both sides of the hill, and still felt a little regretful in his heart.
Why the regrets? The main thing missing, the telescope! This is also the reason why the two battalions of soldiers are so close, you can't see clearly from a distance!
Hu Hai found several immaculate crystals from the First Emperor's treasury, all of which were priceless. Hu Hai threw it to Tian Ren with a big hand and asked him to polish the telescope!
However, yesterday, Hu Hai asked Tian Ren about his progress, and it seems that a few crystals have been scrapped, but there is no telescope that can be used in the experiment!
When Hu Hai gave these priceless crystals to Tian Ren and asked him to find a way to chop and polish them into lenses, Tian Ren was so frightened that he almost threw these crystals out directly.
Anyone knew the value of these pure and flawless crystals, and Tian Ren thought that Hu Hai wanted his life. Later, after Hu Hai's explanation, he trembled and went back with these crystals in his hands!
Hearing Hu Hai ask this time, Tian Ren, who had been worried in his heart, hurriedly assured that a sample would be made in the near future. Hu Hai was naturally overjoyed when he heard it! After wasting several crystals, Tian Ren had indeed preliminarily touched the doorway of the telescope, but he hadn't yet met Hu Hai's requirements!
I think after a while, these telescopes can come in handy when Huhai conducts a 10,000-person exercise!
With Hu Hai's words "the exercise begins", a puff of wolf smoke rose from the top of the hill!
The reason why wolf smoke is used instead of the order flag is that I don't want the two exercise troops, who have not yet figured out the situation, to realize that the other party is nearby! Because what Hu Hai told them was that there were two armies within ten miles.
In the same way, the exercise is also very simple, the two armies can use all means to attack at will, and in the end, which side does not have more people killed in the battle, which side will naturally win. The winning side will be awarded the Iron Medal of Merit of the First Class!
In fact, there is no need to say anything else, that is, this small first-class iron medal for combat merit is enough to arouse the fighting spirit of the soldiers of the two battalions to regard each other as real enemies! Because this is the first time that someone in the Great Qin soldiers has been able to award a medal!
What's more, the soldiers who perform better will be awarded the second-class bronze battle merit medal!
Although it is only the lowest level of the Battle Meritorious Medal, Hu Hai stipulates that as long as a soldier can have three first-class iron Battle Meritorious Service Medals, he will automatically have the title of Gongshi!
The Duke title is only the lowest level of the twentieth rank of Great Qin, but it is still a title!
Daqin 20th class title, Gongshi, Shangzao, hairpin, not more, doctor, official doctor, public doctor, public ride, five doctors, left long, right long, left, middle, right, less on the top, big on the top, the car is long, the big is long, the Guannei Hou, the highest Che Hou.
Now Great Qin only has Li Si, Meng Tian, Wei Yi, Wang Li, and Feng Zheng who are the titles of the twentieth-level Marquis of Che! There are very few other three princes and nine kings such as Dun Weak, Feng Quji, Yao Jia and so on who can be rewarded with the titles of Marquis of Guannei and Dashu, and most of them are at the first level!
It can be seen that the Great Qin title is strictly awarded! Especially the last four lords, they can't be rewarded just by virtue of military and political merits!
But now Hu Hai has opened another way for these titles, as long as anyone in Great Qin can obtain seven Great Qin Medals at the same time, no matter which level, they will be given priority to reward the last four knights! How can you not let the Great Qin soldiers go crazy for it!
Seeing the wolf smoke rising, the two battalions of soldiers on both sides of the hill began to act!
The battalion officer of the first battalion is called Lu Rong, who was originally the 500 lord of the forbidden army, and after the 200,000 forbidden army was mixed with the 400,000 prisoner army, he was appointed as the battalion officer of the first battalion! The battalion officer of the second battalion is called Feng Yu, and like Lu Rong, he is also the five hundred masters of the original forbidden army!
This time, it can be said that both of them are full of energy and want to show their faces in front of His Majesty the Emperor!
"Do you know who is on that mountain, you turtle sons?" Lu Rong pointed to the small Tushan that was not tall but heavily guarded, and shouted at the top of his voice, and without waiting for more than a thousand soldiers to answer, he touched his huge head and continued: "Above is His Majesty the Emperor, His Majesty the Emperor is watching us from above!"
In this first battalion, there are the original Forbidden Army brothers, and there are also the later New Army brothers! However, His Majesty the Emperor said that now we are all brothers, and we are all robes! Should we show His Majesty the Emperor that the brothers of our first battalion are the most elite in Bashang?
I won't say much about the truth, but if I win this time, I will definitely ask you to eat and drink when I go out of the camp! If you are defeated, you turtle sons will blame me for returning to the camp and waiting for you! ”
Lu Rong has a strong figure, of course, the most prominent thing is the huge head on his neck, which is extremely prominent, so he doesn't know when he got the nickname "Lu Datou". This Lu Datou's nickname is generally in a hurry as long as someone dares to call Lu Rong, so the soldiers of the first battalion are only shouting in private!
Now that he heard that Lu Rong actually called himself Lu Datou, he couldn't help laughing one by one, and I don't know who took the lead and shouted: "Long live Your Majesty!" ”
"Long live Your Majesty!" Suddenly, more than a thousand soldiers suddenly shouted in unison.
Lu Rong probably wouldn't have thought that his nickname was given by His Majesty the Second Emperor of Great Qin, who was smiling bitterly at the moment on the top of the mountain!
Because on the morning of the first day when His Majesty the Emperor went to train with the first battalion in a mask, he was trained half to death by Lu Rong! I did 500 push-ups, and I was stunned that Hu Hai didn't get up for three days!
Although Hu Hai is a little jealous, he naturally won't be as knowledgeable as Lu Rong! What's more, Lu Rong didn't know his identity, he deserved to be punished for his non-standard actions and mistakes!
But Hu Hai doesn't clean up Lu Rong openly, it doesn't mean that he just counts it like this, Hu Hai, who has studied for more than ten years and received several military trainings, is still very good at popular nicknames!
As a result, the nickname of "Lu Datou" inadvertently spread throughout the entire first battalion, and it spread more and more widely throughout the entire Bashang battalion!
