"Why don't you write it down!" Li Jing proposed.

Hou Junji also echoed: "If His Royal Highness King Qin is allowed to say it first, then it is likely that there will be nothing to say." But if you let someone say it first, it is disrespectful to His Royal Highness King Qin. So Li Shangshu proposed to write, but it was a very haode method! ”

"Send out the pen and paper, and you will start the literary examination." Li Yuanxing apparently agrees.

Li Yuanxing and the others had small tables, while the officers of the eight and nine grades could only choose to sit on the ground, and the distance between each person was about ten steps, and they were not allowed to talk or turn their heads. Any action is considered to be abandoned, or simply handed in.

Li Yuanxing, Li Jing, and Hou Junji quickly finished writing, and the three sheets of paper were literally placed face down.

After half an hour, what can be written has been written, and what cannot be written is naturally a blank piece of paper.

However, these junior officers did not seem to care whether they passed the examination or not, and put all their minds on the three pieces of paper on the stage.

"General Hou writes, some generals are defeated by their own mistakes!"

A scribe was reading aloud

"Li Shangshu wrote, fortunately I didn't meet that card first!"

"His Royal Highness the King of Qin wrote, anything useful is a treasure, and useless will harm his body."

After reading, the entire school field was quiet, and no one was allowed to ask any more questions, and Li Yuanxing handed over the three pieces of paper to the general on duty of the left leading guard, and then stood in the middle of the platform again.

"The game of military chess is for generals. This king has arranged a kind for you to play with. Li Yuanxing signaled that Lu Maofeng could start, and Lu Maofeng led someone to carry the box to the school field. After the general in charge of the guard gave the order to beat a brisk drum, all the junior officers lined up on one side.

Regarding that competition, in fact, the key question is in a card.

From the third round of Hou Junji, after a team of cavalry found a warehouse card, he was already doomed to failure. For there was a huge amount of grain, so high that all the sergeants on both sides could fight for forty rounds. But Hou Junji only had a cavalry team, and he couldn't even carry a tenth of the grain.

At that time, Li Jing saw that Hou Junji sent 5,000 main forces and 3,000 infantry.

Li Jing began to set traps.

The most direct result of this game was that Li Er ordered the improvement of military chess. It is the number of troops drawn by both sides. You can only let the other party see the troops, but the number of sergeants and the configuration of ordnance are only known to you and the referee.

And what was found in the warehouse became a secret.

One of the most interesting improvements is. The dice represent the force of movement. And because the arms are different. In this round, that is, in one day, the troops of the station can be moved. As long as it matches your dice points, you're good to go. Such a change means that the troops can be divided, and even more than a dozen teams can be divided. The smallest team, limited to one hundred people. The largest team is limited to 10,000 people.

The clever improvement has completely raised the combat power and wisdom of this military chess to a new height.

The reason for the improvement is very simple, in the face of a commander of Li Jing's level, any kind of troop transfer will expose the next ten or even twenty rounds of army mobilization.

Clearly speaking, this is a chance for Hou Junji to challenge Li Jing again.

But at the same time, Li Jing will also use such new rules to play more and more weird tricks.

Over there, Lu Maofeng was already ready, and first took out a bamboo tube that was just enough to hold in one hand. Motioned for all the sergeants in front of him to leave, and then there were a few straw men and planks in front of him. Lu Maofeng threw out the bamboo tube that ignited the fuse.

With a bang, the straw men and planks were blown down and burst into flames.

"This is the new weapon of the Four Guards of the Heavenly Strategy, called Thunderbolt. Infantry weapons, then the next gameplay of this game is. Li Yuanxing pointed at Lu Maofeng.

Lu Maofeng took out a ball sewn from leather, which was filled with hemp.

In modern parlance, this is a baseball ball.

The guards of the Qin Palace, who had already been trained, immediately began to draw lines with lime on the school field, and then set up a formation, attacking one side and defending the other.

"If the ball is thrown into the hands of one's own person, it is a success, but the rule is that it must be thrown within that line. Otherwise, it's a bad ball, and the attacking side hits the ball out with a stick, and the king won't go into details, just watch them play a game and you'll understand. This is a sergeant's game, and there will be a match between the twelve guards, and the winning side will be rewarded. ”

At this time, a clerk from the military department stood up.

"The twelve guards will be ranked, divided into one to six class meals. The strongest team is a first-class meal, and the weakest team is a sixth-class meal. Among them, the second place, the second class food. Third, fourth, and third class food. 5th to 8th, 4th class food. 8th to 11th, 5th class food. The weakest guard, the sixth class food. ”

Just talking about food standards, I'm afraid that these old coarse people don't understand the situation.

The guards of the Qin Palace's mansion brought six more tables.

On the first table were two whole pigs, each weighing 400 pounds, plus two sheep. There was even a basket of peaches, as well as a few baskets of vegetables, white rice, and white noodles.

"A brigade, a lunar eclipse."

The military system of the Tang Dynasty is that there are 12 guards, and each guard is divided into about 50 prefectures, which are divided into three classes, with 1,200 people in the upper government, 1,000 people in the middle government, and 800 people in the lower government.

However, what Li Yuanxing is now in charge of is a standing army, so the establishment here is only regiments, brigades, and teams. Each regiment has 200 people, and there are two brigades, each with 100 people. Two teams per brigade, fifty men each. Each team is divided into five fires, and each fire has ten people.

This fire is the fire that first cooks rice, and one fire is exactly what makes ten people's meals.

The soldiers of the government usually return to the prefectures and take turns to come to Chang'an every year to be responsible for guarding Chang'an. However, after Li Yuanxing reformed the military system for the first time, the Twelve Guards left a standing army. In addition to the government soldiers who still come over every year, there are also one hundred and twenty regiments of standing troops in each guard, which is exactly one army.

One army is 12,000 men.

The full strength of the first guard is the fourth army to the fifth army.

On the table, there are various levels of food standards. The onlookers were also discussing, according to this standard, each person in the first-class meal had almost twelve catties of meat per month, and half a catty of meat per day.

This is the rule set by His Royal Highness the King of Qin, no officer dares to withhold food, then twelve catties of meat per person per month, this level is that even a rich family in Chang'an may not be able to do it.

But when it comes to second-class food, there are only six catties of meat per person per month.

The third-class food is only three catties. The fourth-class two catties of meat have no fruit at all. When it comes to the fifth class, there is only one pound of meat in a month.

When it came to the sixth-class meal, Li Yuanxing personally went to the table, pulled a horizontal knife from Lu Maofeng's hand, cut off a pig's tail at the No. 1 table, and threw it at the No. 6 table.

"The weakest, this king thinks that this meat is enough."

After Li Yuanxing finished speaking, he threw the knife back to Lu Maofeng, and clapped his hands gently: "If you are not convinced, you will be the strongest." Since it's the weakest, I'll fight back next month. Only three fires per guard can be registered as official sergeants for the competition, and these sergeants are given an additional level of food regardless of their rank. ”

"Your Highness, what if you are the strongest?" The general on duty of the left guard came out and asked.

He had to come out because that's what everybody in the whole left guard wants to know.

Li Yuanxing approached him with a smile: "There are two conditions for a formal sergeant, the first is to pass the nine-grade literary examination, and the second is to pass the personal physical fitness of the martial arts examination. ”

Li Yuanxing said that the literary examination is the main topic, the martial arts examination is complete nonsense, and those who can be selected will definitely be the strongest.

Immediately afterwards, Li Yuanxing said loudly: "Special food, every month Qin Wangfu gives fifteen braised hooves, three whole chickens, a pair of braised sausages, plus two jars of good wine from Qin Wangzhuang." ”

It can be clearly seen that the fanaticism in the eyes of the sergeants of the left guard.

Lu Maofeng led people to play an exhibition match, and a scribe explained the rules of the game next to him.

The attacker's swing is key, and the team's cooperation allows them to study it themselves. In terms of distance, Li Yuanxing drew a line according to the standards of later generations, but after the real game here, Li Yuanxing's brows were furrowed.

"Gorou, do you think there are any shortcomings in the rules?" Li Jing asked beside him.

"The distance is too close, the pitcher's arm strength is too strong, this will definitely hurt people if it hits people, and it may break bones if it is heavy, should we consider extending the distance." Li Yuanxing said softly.

Li Jing shook his head: "This distance is just right, I heard that this is carefully calculated by Gorou." If the sergeant who swings the baton on the field blinks, he will miss the opportunity, which also means that he is afraid. Don't be a coward, so this distance is just right! ”

As the two of them were talking, they heard a muffled sound, and they saw the ball fly out like an arrow, far away.

"Good arm strength!" After Li Jing praised loudly, he said to Li Yuanxing: "If this is replaced by a knife, even people and horses, haha!" ”

Li Jing was right, the ball flew out and landed at least a few miles away.

Suddenly, Li Jing's eyes narrowed: "Someone, shoot him!" Let him fight again! ”

With arrows! Thirty steps away from an arrow, without the slightest suspense, was easily knocked down.

These thirty steps of an arrow are far less difficult to hit than a small ball.

"Very well, this can be continued." Li Jing was very satisfied with this result.

Running the base, sprinting, in Li Jing's eyes, this is the rhythm of the charge, and the sergeant's rapid rush can play a decisive blow in a battle at a critical time.

In addition, the garrison side is exactly nine people, which is a fire except for the fire chief.

The teamwork, the team-up kill, also seems to be the coordination between the smallest teams in the training army.

"Gorou, this game has an extraordinary intention."

Li Yuanxing smiled and nodded, what kind of curved ball, outer string ball, etc. Li Yuanxing didn't mention it at all, thinking that he would definitely come up with it after coming to this group of sergeants.

"After a month, the three days of the month are the preliminaries, and the first day of the following month is the finals. This king is looking forward to it, and that Yiwei can take this first. Of course, normal military affairs, river repairs, and city patrols, the guards did not complete their respective tasks, and the right to participate was cancelled!" (To be continued......)
