As soon as Zhang Han and Wang Qian left, Hu Hai was left alone in the big tent.

"Dragon Eight Dragon Nine!" Hu Hai sat for a while and shouted.

"The slave is here~!"

"You send someone to the Ba Palace to call Yingyi, I have something to order. In addition, I went to Wang Qian to bring me a piece of white cloth. ”

"Slave obeys!"

After a while, Long Ba, who was holding a white cloth, came back with Zhang Han.

Zhang Han respectfully handed Hu Hai is seal to Hu Hai, looked at the white cloth on the bronze case and asked, "Your Majesty won't go back to Xianyang tonight?" What is this white cloth for? ”

Hu Hai took the seal and said, "I won't go back tonight." As for what this white cloth is used for, Zhang Aiqing will know. ”

There is a brush on the bronze case, and legend has it that this brush was invented by Meng Tian; In addition to this, there is an ordinary stone slab the size of a palm, with a small finger-length stone on it, and a small box next to the slate.

Hu Hai picked up the brush, but did not find the inkstone and ink, Zhang Han saw Hu Hai pick up the brush and look around, and hurriedly said: "The subordinates came to study ink for Your Majesty!" As he spoke, he opened the small box next to the slate and took out a black bead the size of a black finger.

Zhang Han then placed the black beads on the stone slab, poured water, and began to grind them with a long stone.

The brush and inkstone in the pre-Qin period are very simple, the inkstone is very ordinary, and there is no decoration and carving, the inkstone is not developed until later generations, and there are four legs with exquisite carvings. At this time, the ink was ground with ink pellets and water.

With Zhang Han's ink, Hu Hai moistened the brush and began to draw on the white cloth. It took less than a dozen breaths to put down the brush.

From the perspective of Zhang Han's grinding of ink, Hu Hai just casually used a brush to draw a few strokes on the white cloth, and then stopped.

Hu Hai picked up the white cloth and looked at it, and then asked, "Are there craftsmen in this big camp?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, my Great Qin Engineers are all in Xianyang Shangfang, and at this moment, the craftsmen in the army can only repair some simple siege equipment. You can't build complex tools. ”

"That Zhang Aiqing will see if this thing can be cast by the craftsmen in the army." Hu Hai said and handed the white cloth to Zhang Han.

Zhang Han took the white cloth, on which was a simple trumpet thing, oval, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, with a big opening at the bottom and a fist-sized hole on the top.

This is the simple megaphone invented by Hu Hai.

"Back to Your Majesty, this thing is very simple, and the craftsmen in the army should be able to cast it, but how big can this thing be?" Zhang Han looked at it for a while and asked.

Hearing that the craftsmen in the army could do it, Hu Hai was relieved.

"One person tall is enough, the top is the size of a fist, and the bottom opening is as big as possible." In this way, the sound amplification effect is good.

"The subordinate understands, and the subordinate will do it."

"Well, it's cast and shown to me. Okay, you go, see if Wang Qian's edict is issued, and if it does, call him over. ”

"Your Majesty obeys!"

……

After a while, Wang Qian came. Hu Hai raised his hand to stop Wang Gan's salute,

"Wang Aiqing, all the generals above the hundred generals who went to the general called here."

Hearing Hu Hai's order, Wang Qian was a little dizzy, and asked in a daze: "Your Majesty, are you a general above a hundred generals?" ”

"Well, yes. More than 100 generals! What's wrong? Hu Hai replied affirmatively.

"Back to Your Majesty, the 200,000 forbidden soldiers have been killed, and now there are 2,000 generals in 100, 400 in 500 masters, 200 in 2500 masters, 40 military marquises, 8 captains, and a few generals. The last general is afraid that Your Majesty's big tent will not be able to accommodate so many generals! Wang Qianqi replied.

"Oh!" Hu Hai slapped his forehead and said, "It's me who didn't think it through, I didn't think it through." Is there a quieter martial arts arena in this camp? Well, it doesn't need to be too big, it can accommodate a thousand people! ”

"Back to Your Majesty. There's a place for that kind of performance in the big camp! Wang Qian thought for a while and replied.

"Okay, you take me there immediately, and then send an order to all the generals above the five hundred lords to meet me in the martial arts arena!"

"Whoa!"

Originally, the generals gathered in the camp were generally directly beating drums and gathering generals, but Hu Hai's requirements were a bit high, so Wang Gan went out and immediately asked his own soldiers to go to the order to summon generals at all levels, and he took Hu Hai to the martial arts arena.

It is said that it is a martial arts arena, but it is actually a huge tent that can accommodate thousands of people. The large tent was half the size of a football field, and there was nothing except for the top case and futon, and Hu Hai was very satisfied.

After a while, all the generals rushed over one after another, although it was already night, but the emperor came to the camp late at night to summon him, and everyone rushed over as quickly as possible, who dared to make the emperor wait for a long time?

Hu Hai sat on the futon and closed his eyes to recuperate, Wang Gan stood in front of the desk to count, and after everyone entered the account, they first respectfully saluted Hu Hai, and then consciously arranged neatly according to the level of their positions under Wang Gan's instructions.

Thinking that the time should be almost up, Hu Hai opened his eyes and stood up.

When the generals in the tent saw Hu Hai standing up, they hurriedly knelt down on one knee and said, "Welcome Your Majesty!" ”

"Get up." Hu Haixu raised his hands and said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

When everyone got up, Hu Hai asked, "Wang Qian." Are all the generals in the army here?"

"Back to Your Majesty, the 656 generals of the forbidden army of 500 and above have all arrived."

"Well, good. Today, I summoned you Aiqing late at night to come, and there are two things. The first thing is that I will issue an edict to give the forbidden army the name of 'Tiger Ben', and this 'Tiger Ben Army' will be the pro-army of the emperors of our Great Qin, the first army of Great Qin, and only obey the emperor's order! ”

The generals in the tent were stunned when they heard Hu Hai's words, and then they were all overjoyed, and everyone knew what it meant.

"I am willing to die for Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live! ”

More than 600 people knelt in unison in the tunnel.

"Don't be too happy, the 'Tiger Ben' I gave it to you, but it doesn't mean that you are the people of the 'Tiger Ben Army'. I'll talk about that later, and now I'll talk about this second thing.

The second thing is that the 400,000 prisoners and slaves who are about to be formed into an army. I am calling you here to pass on the method of training to you, and you need to use this method to train the prisoner army and the 200,000 soldiers of the forbidden army.

I told you that in half a year, I would choose from the 400,000 prisoner army and the 200,000 forbidden army, and only the most elite Great Qin soldiers would be able to enjoy the name of 'Tiger Ben'. Do you understand? Hu Hai said loudly.

The generals below were stunned when they heard that Hu Hai was going to select people from the 400,000 prisoner army to join the soon-to-be-established "Tiger Ben Army" and become the Son of Heaven's pro-army. Everyone couldn't understand why His Majesty chose someone from the prisoner army to be the Son of Heaven's pro-army.

There was silence in the tent for a while.

"What? Don't want to? A man who looks down on a prisoner and a slave? I told you and others that the Tiger Ben Army will be the soldiers of our Great Qin. My 'Tiger Army' only needs the most elite and brave men of my Great Qin, no matter what they were born in, no matter what they used to be. And after the Tiger Ben Army is completed, it will be re-selected every year in the future, and the capable will enter and the inferior will come out. Can you understand now? ”
