Chapter 122: All Officers Promoted to One Level
"Come on."
Qin Duan didn't say much, it seemed that this Cao Chongyue's strength was more than a cut above that Kang Younian just now. Cao Chongyue lifted the halberd gun in his hand and slowly walked out of the queue, while Qin Duan took the iron shield and the Pu knife that Kang Younian had used just now from the soldiers next to him.
The surrounding soldiers couldn't help whispering, just now Qin Duan defeated Kang Younian with a spear and a shield, then Qin Duan should be good at spears and halberds, but now the other party is holding a halberd gun, but he has changed to a sword and shield, it is not that he is proficient in all aspects, if so, I am afraid that he is not much better than Kang Younian, Cao Chongyue, who does not have much confidence, looks more dignified, and he does his best, and he can be regarded as living up to the hearts of his brothers.
Thinking of this, Cao Chongyue couldn't help but cheer up. With a low shout, Cao Chongyue launched an attack first with a bright sprint of progress, this move won the applause of the soldiers outside the field, Qin Duan was not lazy, his left arm held the shield, his body turned obliquely, and with a slight knock, the opponent's very fierce offensive was invisible, and the cheers of the soldiers did not fall, and they couldn't help but applaud Qin Dui's easy resolution.
Resolved Cao Chongyue's moves, Qin Dui bullied forward, the right hand Pu knife was chopped on the head, the other party opened the knife, the halberd spear slashed down obliquely, Qin Dui raised the shield to block it, the right hand knife stabbed forward, Cao Chongyue dodged and dodged, the halberd gun slammed Qin Duan's lower abdomen from the bottom up, Qin Dui took a step back, let this ruthless move, Cao Chongyue took advantage of the situation and made another oblique lift, the halberd was close to Qin Duan's waist and ribs, Qin Dui saw Cao Chongyue's fierce momentum, and no longer retreated, otherwise Cao Chongyue will be more imposing, not retreating but advancing, and the iron shield side pressure blocked Cao Chongyue's halberd gun, The knife in his right hand slashed at the waist with a ferocious slash.
Cao Chongyue didn't expect Qin Dui not to retreat but to advance, killing moves one after another, a little caught off guard, had to borrow the iron shield to hit the power of the halberd gun and retreat at the touch of a button, Qin Dui was unforgiving, step by step, the iron shield in his left hand was smashed up and down, the right hand Pu knife danced like a snowflake, and the move was directly to the point, Cao Chongyue was restrained by one move, trapped step by step, and the halberd gun in his hand could not give full play to the advantages of long weapons, and fell into frequent defense.
Qin Duan gave full play to the characteristics of short weapons, did not let Cao Chongyue get out, and finally took advantage of the loopholes in Cao Chongyue's defense, and cut off Cao Chongyue's shoulder strap with a diagonal pull of the right knife, which was also the mercy of Qin Duan's subordinates, otherwise if it was on the battlefield, one of Cao Chongyue's arms would be reimbursed.
Cao Chongyue was not surprised, because from the beginning he was mentally prepared for his failure, he could hold on for so long, and the defeat was not ugly, and he was worthy of everyone. Saluted, Cao Chongyue said respectfully: "The subordinates have been defeated, thank you for your mercy." ”
"It's all about learning from each other, don't care, you will all be my soldiers in the future, everyone is your own people, as long as you work hard for me, I will definitely not treat you badly." Qin Du walked over and warmly shook Cao Chongyue's hand and said.
Seeing that Qin Dui was still very humble after his victory, which was very different from the domineering appearance of other high-ranking officials he had seen, Cao Chongyue and all the soldiers were a little moved, and he had no reason to disagree.
In this way, Qin Duan proved his strength with facts, and also won the respect of more than 100 soldiers and officers, and quickly established his prestige in front of these people, and no one dared to regard him as a weak scholar official, and regarded him as a general who could lead him to the south and the north.
"Liang Qiming."
Qin Duan shouted to Liang Qiming, the thousand-commander standing at the front of the line.
"The subordinates are here." Liang Qiming immediately replied upright.
"Now I appoint you as the commander of the Guard, and I will take charge of these soldiers for the time being."
Qin Dui said, Qin Dui felt that this person who could be a commander was definitely capable of managing these soldiers, for these hundred soldiers, Qin Dui would not adjust the personnel for the time being, and would leave them all to this Liang Qiming for a few days.
For more than a hundred soldiers and officers, Qin Duan must be adjusted, but Qin Duan does not want to adjust this army in the capital, after all, Qin Duan has his own officer system in his heart, which is somewhat different from the officer system of the Great Qin Empire, and if he adjusts it according to his own ideas in the capital, he may cause himself some unnecessary trouble.
"Yes, my subordinates obey." Liang Qiming responded.
"General Wu, do you see now?"
Qin Duan looked at Wu Dalong and asked, after all, now that the soldiers and sergeants have been selected, he should also take people back.
"Lord Qin, you can take them away now, from now on they are no longer soldiers in my military camp, they will be adults in the future, wait a while, Ben will send someone to transfer their military files to your lord." Wu Dalong said.
"Then thank you, General Wu." Qin Duan said gratefully.
"Lord Qin is polite." Wu Dalong hurriedly said, for Qin Du and Gonggong Li, Wu Dalong, a general, would not dare to slack off.
"Master Wu, then I'll take someone away now, and next time I have a chance, I'll invite Master Wu to drink." Qin Du said.
"Lord Qin, if you want to drink, you must go down here, and I will send you away." Wu Dalong said.
After a few polite exchanges with Wu Dalong, Qin Duan returned to the Wei Mansion with the hundred or so soldiers selected this time, this Wei Zhongxian Mansion is very large, covering an area of hundreds of acres, and there are many houses, the housekeeper of the Wei Mansion found a big courtyard, and settled down these hundred good people.
"Let's all come out and line up, Lord Ben has something to say."
After these soldiers and officers were settled, Qin Duan stood on the flat ground in the middle of the courtyard and said, this courtyard is very large, and there is no problem for one or two hundred people standing in the open space in the middle.
These are veterans of more than five years of military experience, plus the suzhì of the city guards in the capital, which is much higher than the local army, and a quarter of the time of the incense, all the soldiers have already come out of the house and lined up in the open space.
"Very good, I'm quite satisfied that everyone can finish the line so quickly, but this is the first time, my requirements are a little lower, I will be strict with you in the future, train you to be elites, and train you to be soldiers who can become generals in the future."
The soldiers and sergeants below quietly looked at Qin Duan and did not speak, I have to say that the army in the capital of the Great Qin Empire was very good, and when Qin Duan spoke again, no one below spoke.
"Okay, I'm here to tell you, from now on, you are my Qin Dusk's soldiers, and I will cover your food and clothing, honor, disgrace, and wealth in the future, but I also have my requirements, you must unconditionally obey my orders from today onwards, and be unconditionally loyal to me, is there a problem?" Qin Duan asked.
"No problem." The soldiers and officers below shouted.
"Good."
Qin Dui said with satisfaction, Qin Dui knew that what the following soldiers and officers said might not be true, but Qin Dui was not in a hurry, Qin Dui believed that in the future, under the means of continuous brainwashing, he was not afraid that these soldiers and officers would not be loyal to him, but those special brainwashing methods were not used now, and after leaving the capital, they would be carried out.
"Now gather you all together, there is good news and bad news for you, which one do you want to hear first?" Qin Duan asked.
"Your Excellency, you'd better tell the bad news first." Li Daring said loudly.
"Okay, I'll talk about the bad news first, the bad news is that on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, we are about to leave for the northwest, and the time you can stay in the capital is only two days." Qin Du said.
"And what about the good news?" Ding Daniu asked loudly.
"The good news is that Lord Ben is ready to move each of you up to the next level." Qin Du said with a smile.
"An officer?"
The sergeants below are dumbfounded, the overall officer has been promoted to one level, which is a big deal, but there are a total of more than 100 people here, all of them have been promoted to one level, and there are no soldiers, who cares whom.
"How can you be promoted to a higher level?" Cao Chongyue asked suspiciously.
"Is it that an ordinary soldier is promoted to a captain of the wood, a captain of the woodman is promoted to a captain of ten, a captain of ten is promoted to a centurion, a centurion is promoted to a commander of a thousand, and as for the commander of a thousand? He was promoted to division commander. Qin Duan said.
"What is the division commander?"
Zhu Yongqing asked with concern, after all, this Zhu Yongqing is now the deputy commander, and the commander of this division corresponds to himself, but there is no such thing in the military attache level of the Great Qin Empire, in the Great Qin Empire, the commander is a deputy garrison, and a military attache in charge of 3,000 people comes.
"The commander of the division is what I have come up with on the spot, a division commander is in charge of ten centurions, a commander of a thousand is in charge of ten centurions, and so on, a division has about 10,000 soldiers." Qin Du explained.
"My lord, there are only a hundred of us now?"
Liang Qiming asked a little puzzled, all of his people added up to less than one hundred and twenty people, and they were far from ten thousand.
"That's what I'm going to say, tomorrow I will take you to the outskirts of the capital to recruit troops, how many soldiers can be recruited, whether you can be a veritable centurion, a thousand-commander, it's up to you, if you can't even find a soldier, your level will not be promoted, the opportunity is given to you, whether you can grasp it, it's up to you, whether you have any problems." Qin Duan asked.
"No problem."
Hundreds of soldiers said excitedly, isn't it just to recruit refugees to enlist in the army? This is too easy, many of these people were refugees before they became soldiers, and they know best what refugees need.
"Very good, magnolia and cherry, give each of them ten taels of silver." Qin Du said to Little Cherry and Magnolia who were standing at the gate of the courtyard peeking.
"Yes, sir."
Xiao Cherry and Magnolia answered, and hurriedly took Liu Wu and Liu San, who had been waiting on the side with a box of silver, into the courtyard.
At this time, these soldiers noticed that there were two beautiful girls standing at the door, and all of them were stunned with wide eyes.
"It's going to die, is this a fairy?"
These days, I stayed in the barracks every day, and I had never seen a beautiful woman, and when I saw two women as beautiful as fairies, I was stunned, and some people even drooled.
