Chapter 33 Recruitment
Liu Chengzhi knew that because these soldiers were recruited in a hurry, the quality of the soldiers was not very good, and the effect could not be guaranteed when the war really started.
He carefully studied the Supreme Art of War and thought of a way.
Liu Chengzhi first asked the newly recruited soldiers to conduct a competition, and selected the best of the best in terms of strength, flexibility, weapon use technology, riding skills, etc., and finally took out one out of ten, took out 40,000 elite soldiers, and then disbanded the rest of the soldiers.
Twenty elite soldiers were selected from 40,000 elite soldiers as soldiers to recruit new soldiers from all over Mianzhou Prefecture.
The quality of the newly recruited soldiers is indeed much better than that of the original soldiers. Due to the population of tens of millions in Mianzhou, the supply of soldiers is relatively sufficient, and although the requirements are harsh, 400,000 capable soldiers were finally recruited in Mianzhou.
Then, Liu Chengzhi established a new command system with the original 10,000 Jin troops as the backbone.
With Xiang Wuji as the deputy commander, Zhu Shanchang, Liu Yan, Li Xiuqi and others each commanded an army and was promoted to army commander, and the first army was about 100,000 people. He also scattered 10,000 Wucheng troops into 400,000 soldiers and held military positions at all levels.
At this time, Liu Chengzhi carefully consulted the supreme art of war, and found that the three people recorded in it were extremely powerful.
After discussing with Xiang Wuji, Zhu Shanchang and others, he carefully introduced the three-person tiger formation contained in the Supreme Art of War, and everyone felt that this was a good way to improve their combat effectiveness. Therefore, through the backbone of the Great Jin Army in the army at all levels, the three-person tiger formation was awarded to the soldiers as a key training content, and the training was intensified.
After a month and a half, Liu Chengzhi's troops gradually became stronger, as if a new army system had been established.
Because of the Chaos Qi Diagram, Liu Chengzhi's day was six hours longer than others.
He spends six hours during the day dealing with official business, and at night through the Chaos Qi Diagram, he has another six extra hours to practice his palms, and then uses the remaining six hours to rest.
Now, Liu Chengzhi has cultivated the second palm of the Flying Dragon's Thirteen Palms, "Seeing the Dragon in the Field", to Xiaocheng, but because he does not have the world's No. 1 alien fire, the Blue Fire Refining Heart Lotus, the palm technique cannot reach the perfect state.
On that day, Liu Chengzhi was discussing official business with Chang Shanjie, Shangguan Ruyun, Liu Yan and others, but he heard the doorman report that four old men with crane hair and childish faces came outside.
Liu Chengzhi announced that the future would come in.
As soon as the four of them entered the foyer, Chang Shanjie's face was suddenly extremely embarrassed, and he got up quietly, wanting to slip away.
Who knows, as soon as one of the old men moved, he came to Chang Shanjie's side, and as soon as the giant hand grabbed him, he wanted to grab him in his hand.
Liu Chengzhi was afraid that Chang Shanjie would suffer, so he hurriedly stopped the two.
The old man pointed with his hand and moved his mind, and a thunderbolt fell from the sky and hit Liu Chengzhi.
Liu Chengzhi waved his palm upward, and a sound of dragon roaring sounded, and as soon as it was connected with the thunderbolt, the thunderbolt disappeared invisibly.
Chang Shanjie hurriedly said: "Lei Bo, don't fight, it's all your own people!"
When the old man heard this, he grinned and retreated.
Liu Chengzhi said curiously: "Do you know each other?"
I saw an old man at the head stand up and said: "General Liu, I have admired it for a long time! We are the four envoys of the Lingdong Sword Sect, the four envoys of wind and thunder, and we are the envoys of the wind! There are also these envoys of the dark clouds, the envoys of the divine thunder, and the envoys of lightning!"
"Chang Shan Jie by your side is the eldest lady of our Lingdong Sword Sect Sect Sect Sect Sect Chang Shan Zongwu!"
"Chang Shanjie, eldest lady?" Liu Chengzhi's eyes widened, and he said, "How many people, is there a mistake? Chang Shanjie is obviously a man?"
At this time, Chang Shanjie blushed, pulled the wind envoy, and said, "Why are you here, you follow me to the residence first!"
After that, several people left Liu Chengzhi's residence.
The next day, Liu Chengzhi habitually came to knock on Chang Shanjie's door, but saw a letter inside, and the envelope read: "Brother Chengzhi opened it personally." Liu Chengzhi opened the envelope, and there was a letter paper inside, with several lines of words written in beautiful handwriting.
The letter reads: "Brother Chengzhi has been talking to each other for several months, and he feels very speculative. A month ago, regardless of the danger, he forced back the five demons of Shangshan, and felt the brotherly affection even more. If you don't give up, at noon today, meet in the woods in the east of the city, see you or leave!"
Liu Chengzhi didn't know what this little brother was going to do, but seeing the solemnity of what he wrote, he decided to go to this appointment.
At noon that day, Cheng Zhi came to the forest in the east of the city, saw that there was no one left and right, and thought: "This little brother Chang Shanjie always doesn't know what to say, the letter is so formal, but people don't come!"
At this time, he heard someone behind him laughing lightly, and Cheng Zhi looked back, but it was a woman, wearing a golden hairpin, her skin was better than snow, and she was dressed like a fairy, which seemed to be a little familiar. I couldn't help but be stunned.
But I heard the woman laugh and say, "Brother Chengzhi, don't you recognize me?" Liu Chengzhi took a closer look and realized that this was Chang Shanjie.
The woman was followed by the four envoys of wind and clouds, thunder and lightning.
Liu Chengzhi said: "Brother Jie, I can't think of ......"
Chang Shanjie smiled: "My surname is Chang Shan, my name is clean, and I am as white as snow." From the beginning, I didn't hide my name, but my brother didn't tell my sister his real name at that time. Liu Chengzhi was embarrassed.
Chang Shanjie looked at the four envoys of wind and clouds, thunder and lightning, and said, "You guys go down first, I won't run." The four of them bowed, and about a few hundred meters away from the two of them, stood still.
Chang Shanjie took out a booklet from his arms, with the cover written "Wind and Microstep", stuffed it into Chengzhi's hand, and said, "Brother, this is the light skill that this Lingdong Sword Sect has passed down from generation to generation. I know that your next move is dangerous, if there is danger, you must not be reckless, you must escape!" ”
After that, he turned his head and walked back, Chengzhi looked at her back getting farther and farther away, and he was stunned in his heart, wanting to stop her, but he knew that it was impossible!
"Lingdong Sword Sect!" Liu Chengzhi thought silently in his heart, and he took out the iron plate left by the original Taoist in his arms, and these four big characters were also written on it.
Liu Chengzhi secretly made up his mind and planned to go there to see the mundane things around him.
At this time, only a loud "bump" sound was heard, and Liu Chengzhi only felt that the ground under his feet was constantly shaking.
He hurriedly returned to the palace to find out the situation.
I saw that the streets were full of panicked people.
Liu Chengzhi was shocked in his heart, and immediately remembered that Shangguan Ruyun didn't know what was going on.
He ran quickly to Shangguan Ruyun's residence. But the crowd shuttled through the street, but they couldn't show their figures.
After about a stick of incense, he came to the door of Shangguan Ruyun's mansion.
saw that Shangguan Ruyun was standing there, looking at him with a smile.
Liu Chengzhi's heart fluttered, and he pulled Shangguan Ruyun into his arms.
Shangguan Ruyun buried his head in Liu Chengzhi's arms, and after a while, he suddenly said, "What about the eldest lady of the Lingdong Sword Sect?
Liu Chengzhi's face turned red, and he said, "It seems to have been picked up!"
