When Xiao Cong went to the Jingnan Army to patrol the army, the Jingnan Army was also conducting a selection competition for this year's Hexi Five Army Competition, because soldiers who have joined the army for more than one year according to the regulations are eligible to sign up, so Xiao Yan and their new recruits have no chance to participate in this year's competition, even if the army is lively and booming, it has nothing to do with them.

Xiao Ji felt that since the seventeenth cousin had met the fourth cousin, she had worked harder, not only in her harsh training and practice routine—there was no free time at all except for eating and sleeping—but also in her strict requirements for a group of recruits: "Those who are lazy and slippery, and those who can't achieve their goals, will get out of here!" Those who do not obey orders and do not react quickly will all get out! A regiment of soldiers must be strong soldiers! No, get out! ”

During training, she rode a horse and held a bow to patrol the school field, and if she found that she was lazy and slippery, the arrow with the broken arrow would shoot at the recruit's round hat with a "bang", which was simply terrifying! - Most of these people are ruffians, rangers or rich people who go to the army to avoid trouble, and of course they have some skills to enter the first regiment, but they do not seek to be motivated, and they only want to achieve seven points during training. But after Xiao Yan's elusive "frightening arrow" is rectified, how dare he not train with his dead strength? I cursed in my heart, could it be that the masked man had opened his eyes, and even their laziness without a trace could be seen?

In order to train the recruits' quick reflexes, she rode back and forth in order to train the recruits to react quickly, and in each team, in which direction she shot the arrows, all the soldiers of the team had to shoot arrows in that direction at once, and those who did not shoot, or shot one beat slower, or shot in the wrong direction, were severely punished - not only for running with weights, climbing, and clams. Physical training such as toad jumping, as well as miscellaneous chores such as washing clothes, rubbing socks, and cleaning toilets, are all painful.

The rigor of her training is also reflected in the extreme training plan she has formulated, the first regiment of recruits to run with weights, clams. The distance of the toad jump was raised to a new limit by her, according to the different physical abilities of each recruit, different standards were drawn, and finally the standard was reached after exhaustion, and the next time the standard was raised, so that everyone's body and will were tested every day, and even the mixed days were forced out of their potential - there was no way to mix under this kind of extreme training.

Some people couldn't hold on, and felt that the training was too harsh and unreasonable, so some complained to the instructors and battalion owners, and they were all reprimanded, and those who were not convinced during the training were all kicked out by her, "When you enter the first regiment, you can only say okay, you can't say no, and if you say no, get out!" After having a few "killed" chickens, the rest of the monkeys had no opinion, and they were tired and tired. Fortunately, the reward after each goal is made people cry and gratify, not only giving a day off, eating a big meal, but also giving three taels of barley wine - this is a great temptation for the wine worms, and they also fight for these three taels of wine.

The daily combat training is also a painful experience, Xiao Yan carried a long stick to patrol, met a soft shot, whipped down with a stick, and shouted: "Are you killing people or killing chickens?" What about momentum? "When you encounter a wrong move, you will also be beaten with a stick, "Where are the eyes?" Is your brain gnawed by a dog? "When you encounter a dull move, or whip it with a stick," the brain is all pasted with slurry? Do you know how to be flexible? ”…… The strength of her whipping is skillful, it will not hurt people's muscles and bones and will not leave marks, but it hurts into the bone marrow, anyone who has been beaten by her once, really doesn't want to have a second experience, when eating, he is gesturing with straight eyes, and he dreams of how to make moves and dismantle moves at night.

After training like this for half a month, when Xiao Cong came to inspect the recruit camp, he obviously felt that among the six recruit regiments, the first regiment standing at the head of the left was violent, and all of them looked like wolves, and the momentum alone could compare with the other five regiments.

Xiao Yu let out a "huh", turned his head to Xu Chong and said, "Your first regiment is good." ”

The left deputy general (deputy army leader) Ge Shuye touched his thick beard and said, "It's good." I don't know, I thought I had been on the battlefield, all of them were like wolves and tigers, and they were very imposing. He laughed, "Hello boys!" ”

Xu Chongmo and the instructors of the first group thought to themselves: Can you not have momentum? If you don't have momentum, you will be beaten with sticks! Even if the soft dough is beaten too much, it is also bitter and hateful!

The right deputy general (deputy army leader) Cheng Shizheng glanced at Xiao Cong's smiling expression and said, "I don't know who the captain of the first regiment is?" The good soldier is a talent. ”

Ge Shuye scolded "sycophant" in his heart, these generals are not blind and deaf, who doesn't know that the first regiment of recruits this year is the son of Liang Guogong and the son of the military master leading the troops? This knowingly asked, obviously to Xu Chongmo to hand over the talk, and sell it in front of the prince and the military master. The former general of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, who was transferred from Qinzhou Assassin Shiren, muttered in his heart, "Han people are cunning", and he regretted letting Cheng Shizheng steal this talk.

Xu Chong saluted and replied: "The captain of the first regiment is Xiao Yan, and the brigade commanders Xiao Ji and Mu Fu are all in the realm of martial arts integration, although they are recruits, they are very disciplined in training, especially the captain Xiao Yan, who is very creative in training......

Xiao Cong's face smiled even more.

Ge Shuye, Cheng Shizheng and other generals saw it in their eyes and praised it one after another.

Changshi Huanyi asked Xu Chongmo: "It's just that the first regiment is training like this?" ”

Xu Chongmo replied: "The second to sixth regiments are also training like this, but the effect is not as good as that of the first regiment. ”

Xiao Yu smiled and said: "Extreme training and Mingdi training can be included in the training project, but to accurately observe the situation of each recruit like a regimental captain, the 'frightening arrow' is shot accurately, and the strength of the whipping recruit is appropriate, then it is not something that ordinary people can do - these two points should be used with caution, change the officer with the soldier to paint the cat and the tiger, but don't cripple the recruit." ”

Ge Shuye didn't care and said, "Look at this method." Training, it is necessary to draw out the desperate strength of these soldiers. As long as it does not exceed the disability rate. ”

Recruit training is disabled in every army, especially the cavalry army, which is known for its harsh training, there are deaths, which seems to be normal in the army, joining the army is to eat with your head, training is not strict in peacetime, and going to the battlefield is to die, so recruit training is allowed to have a disability rate, as long as it does not exceed the disability rate, it doesn't matter if your recruits are scolded or beaten, as long as they are not intentionally hurting or taking revenge, the superior generals think that this is nothing- This is the reason why Xiao Yan's rigorous training plan can be used by the Captain of the Overseer and Xu Chong.

Cheng Shizheng asked Xu Chongmo: "What is the disability rate of the first regiment?" ”

"Nothing disabled." Xu Chongmo replied, "Those who can't hold it are eliminated." The number of soldiers of the 1st Regiment is now one hundred and seventy-seven. "Twenty-three people were eliminated.

Because of the harshness of Xiao Yan's training, the recruits of the second to sixth regiments have changed their complexions, and those who want to compete for the first regiment have also been discouraged, and there may be those who are waiting and waiting to measure whether they can persevere, in short, the current soldiers are dissatisfied.

All the accompanying generals took a breath, such a rigorous training, the disability rate turned out to be zero, it can be seen that this degree is mastered very well, both strict and moderate, this is not easy. Cheng Shizheng praised heartily: "It's really good." ”

Ge Shuye ha: "Lao Xu can dig up a treasure this time." ”

Xiao Cong's handsome eyebrows were curved, and the genuine smile on his face could see the joy of his mood. Well, in fact, there was a little shock in the pleasure, he didn't expect Xiao Yan's training to be so harsh, and his sister in his impression was like two people, and he was relieved when he thought about it, because his sister was so strict with herself in martial arts, and of course she had to be strict in training her own soldiers, and it also reassured him that Xiao Yan would not have the situation of "Ci is not in charge of soldiers".

After inspecting the team shooting, fighting, and physical fitness drills in the recruit camp, Xiao Cong expressed satisfaction with the training of the recruits, and Xiao Yu and other generals were also very satisfied. Xu Chongmo and the instructors were rewarded.

After Xiao Yan announced the overall formation of the recruit battalion as the eleventh battalion after the inspection, the recruits were stunned, only a small number of people showed such an expression, Xiao Yan raised his arm first, "Eleventh battalion!" The recruits of the 1st Regiment followed suit and raised their arms and cheered, "Eleventh Battalion!" All the recruits raised their arms and cheered: "Eleventh Battalion!" "Eleventh Battalion!" "Eleventh Battalion!"

The next day was the reorganization of the entire battalion and the appointment of a new commander. The first regiment was reorganized into a cavalry regiment, with the regiment leader Xiao Yan; The second regiment is a heavy infantry regiment, forming a Modao formation, with the regiment leader Xiao Ji; The 3rd to 6th regiments were all mixed crossbow infantry regiments, with the 3rd Regiment being the head Mu Fu, the 4th Regiment being the head Xiang Ying, and the 5th and 6th Regiment being appointed.

After Xiao Yan's first regiment was reorganized, only 50 people who were good at riding and archery were retained, and the other recruits were assigned to other regiments according to their arms, including Xiong Wu, Yuan Hui and several team leaders and fire commanders, among the people who stayed, Guo Houze, the fire commander of the second brigade, was promoted to the commander of the second brigade, and the first brigade was led by Xiao Yan himself, and the brigade commander was not appointed. There is also a brigade fire that wants to be her personal soldier Chang'an Ye Xi was appointed as the captain of the first brigade and one team because of his outstanding appearance, but this kid doesn't seem to be interested in being a team member and has been pestering to be her personal soldier, which makes Xiao Yan a little annoyed.

But compared to training, it's just a small annoyance. The cavalry training of Xiao Yan's first regiment is of course different from the previous recruit training, in addition to the original physical training, there are also riding skills, horse warfare, horse archery training, and another focus is the plateau climate survival training. The main enemy of the Jingnan Army was Tubo, which was different from the battle in the northern Gobi Plain faced by the Weisheng Army and the Zhenwu Army. Tibet has been able to dominate the plateau for so long because of its topography and climate. Compared with other Tang armies, the Jingnan Army was stationed in the border with Tibet for many years, and one of the key points of training in peacetime was survival training in the snow-capped mountains of the plateau.

After the new battalion was formed into the 11th battalion, such training will also begin.

The first regiment's snow-capped mountain survival training was the first batch, which was scheduled for the ninth day of August. Before leaving, she received a pass pass from the camp owner and went to the fourth brother's tent to say goodbye.

Xiao Cong was delayed for a while because of the Daomen incident, and he couldn't stay long in the Jingnan Army patrol, and he had to leave on the 10th day of the first month of August - September 15 was the big competition of the five armies of the Hexi Army, and he had to return to Hezhou in advance to prepare.

After the two siblings talked for a while, Xiao Cong asked her, "Your cavalry regiment is not full yet, right?" ”

Xiao Yan nodded, "There are still thirty-five people left." Xu Chongmo only gave her one hundred and sixty-five people, and the vacated thirty-five places were for people from other regiments to fight, because the cavalry regiment and the heavy infantry regiment were the best treated.

Xiao Cong said: "There are eight of my tooth soldiers, and if you want to stay in the army, five of them will be put in your first regiment." ”

Xiao Yan was surprised, "Isn't it good to be a tooth soldier of my brother?" "Being a tooth soldier of the world is a high salary, where can the cavalry of a cavalry regiment compare? And the status and honor are also high, how can anyone want to go back to the barracks?

Xiao Cong smiled: "Everyone has their own ambitions. Some people are used to living in the army, and they like to kill on the battlefield. Although the salary of being a tooth soldier is good, there are fewer opportunities to go to the battlefield. "Even if he becomes a metropolitan governor in the future, he will not charge into battle, and when he is a tooth soldier, of course, he will have no chance to kill the enemy.

Although it is an honor to be a soldier of the governor and the prince, and the salary is also high, there are always some strange things, nostalgic for the days when the military camp killed the enemy, and there is no need for money to support the family, so it is not surprising that the idea of returning to the military camp is moved.

Xiao Cong originally wanted to leave some capable people for Xiao Yan and protect her on the battlefield, so he passed on his meaning from Xiao Chengzhong, and finally eight people reported to him, but three people wanted to return to the original old camp, and the other five people had seen Xiao Yan's martial arts skills of killing thieves, and they were convinced, and they were willing to belong to her.

“…… These five are all in their early thirties, although they have not learned internal kung fu, but they are very skilled in horse archery and horse fighting, and the important thing is to have experience and murderous spirit against the enemy, which should be able to play a role in your cavalry training. ”

Xiao Yan thought for a while and nodded, "Since they are voluntary, of course I have no opinion." ”

"That's it. Tomorrow, the order will be issued by the Chinese army, and the soldiers will be transferred to the Jingnan Army after I return to Hezhou. Tomorrow they will report to the camp master first, and then they will be assigned to your first regiment. ”

Xiao Yan said: "Okay." Smiled again, Xie Xiaocong, "Brother is bothered." ”

Her smile made the candle tent light up for a moment, as if a pearl was shining in the light.

Xiao Cong's eyes were stunned, he felt that his sister was really beautiful, thinking of Ah Yan's life experience, his gaze was extremely soft, but in an instant, he was worried again, and said with a frown: "It's always inconvenient for you to have no personal soldiers by your side, Aunt Seventh has a female soldier escort, let her assign three people to you?" "According to the military system, the regimental leader can have three personal soldiers.

Xiao Yan shook his head and said, "No." I can't assign Aunt Seven's people either. "How can a soldier who is a military master be stronger than a personal soldier who is a regiment master, why let people go down, and transferring to the side does not make people secretly resentful.

Xiao Cong hesitated for a moment and said, "Then please ask Aunt Seventh to pay attention to it and see if there is a suitable candidate." He is always worried about Ah Yan's beauty, thinking about Ah Yan's mother back then...... His aunt...... What a peachy storm it has set off!

Xiao Yan said, "Okay", and said: "If you can't find a suitable one, don't force it." "I thought to myself, there is really nothing good, just let An Yexi be a personal soldier and not let him serve closely.

Xiao Cong wrote down the matter of his own soldiers, and told her to put on the mask, the brother and sister talked for a while, and the first watch in the camp (eight o'clock in the evening) banged, Xiao Yan got up and prepared to return to the camp.

Xiao Cong stopped her, "Ah Yan......"

Xiao Yan turned around, "Brother still has an explanation?" ”

Xiao Cong hesitated for a moment and said, "The Jingnan Army has received a military letter from the Governor's Mansion - the Qingchuan County Lord will arrive in the Jingnan Army tomorrow to practice. …… It may meet you. Her mind is deep and unfathomable, and when you meet her, avoid a little. ”

Is the main county of Cheongcheon coming?

Xiao Yan's first thought was to return the peace vase to her, and seeing Xiao Cong's worried look, she knew that the relationship between the Xiao family and the royal family was delicate, and said with a smile: "I will lead a group to the Qingjia Mountains tomorrow, and I will come back in ten days." The county lord can't stay in the Jingnan Army for long, right? September 15 is the great competition between the five armies. Maybe I'll come back, she's already gone to Hezhou. ”

Xiao Cong thought about it, even if the county lord of Qingchuan arrived in the Jingnan army, there were eight or nine days of staggered time, and it was impossible for the county lord of Qingchuan to have too much interaction with Ah Yan.

But he still had unspeakable anxiety in his heart, and finally said: "Anyway, you avoid her, don't believe what she is talking nonsense." ”

Xiao Yan: "Huh? "What nonsense will the county lord say?" ”

"It's just gibberish and sowing discord." Xiao Cong gave people eye medicine first.

Xiao Yan couldn't help but laugh, "Don't worry, brother, I won't listen to her sow discord." As he said goodbye to his brother, he turned back when he came out of the account, "Don't forget, brother, go back and ask about your father." As he spoke, he flashed out.

Xiao Cong smiled, watching the tent door fall, but his face turned solemn.

When he returned, he wanted to ask his father for clarification.

On the third day of the Jingnan Army, he learned about Ah Yan's possible life experience from his seventh aunt, and his mood was complicated and indescribable, and all kinds of feelings gathered in his heart...... This kind of background is really ...... He doesn't know how to tell Ah Yan in the future, or hide it from her for the rest of his life? I'm afraid that I can't hide it for a lifetime, not to mention the unidentified "business lady"!

After learning about Xiao Yan's background, he was more worried about the county lord of Qingchuan, guessing her background from Ah Yan's similar appearance to her mother, and piercing the secret.

Hopefully, that's just his concern.
