After arranging all the new students, Wang Yangming went to check on the Yingyang military camp and saw that under Gu Xifeng's rule, everything was fine in the Yingyang army. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info there has been no war this month, everyone has nothing to do when they have practiced hard, and their spirits are more sufficient, Wang Yangming's heart is a little calmer, which is slightly more comforting.

Gu Xifeng saw that it was him who came, and grinned and said, "You can be counted as back, hurry up and take away the burden of the acting commander of the Eagle Yang Army on my shoulders." ”

Wang Yangming knew Gu Xifeng's temperament and knew that he was the most unbearable for mundane affairs, but there was no one else in the army who could be qualified for the position of acting commander for the time being. smiled and scolded: "I went back to Beijing this time, the saint has rewarded our Eagle Yang Army, your old Gu official has been promoted to two levels, and now he is also a four-rank Xuanjie captain, why don't you look like an official at all." ”

Gu Xifeng laughed: "My old Gu doesn't cultivate good fruits in his life, he loves to kill people and set fires, being an official or something, it's boring." ”

Wang Yangming was lazy to argue with him, and was about to go to greet others, but was stopped by Gu Xifeng: "There is something that needs to be reported to you." ”

Wang Yangming saw that he looked serious, and knew that Gu Xifeng wanted to talk about business, so he was busy listening.

It turned out that the emperor ordered the young people of school age in the country to join the army, and the administrative efficiency of the Great Xia Empire was extremely high, and within a few days, young people from all over the country joined the army, and more than 50,000 people were assigned to the Northwest Army. Wang Yangming didn't expect so many recruits to arrive so soon, and he was speechless. I thought that in this way, the headquarters must be busy distributing these recruits now, and some of them are busy.

Gu Xifeng said: "I have heard that the Holy Lord is very appreciative of the great achievements of our Eagle Yang Army in the hollowing trip, and ordered our Eagle Yang Army to expand, and it is estimated that the formation of the Eagle Yang Army will increase to 5,000 people in the Half Moon Festival, so I want to discuss with you." ”

Wang Yangming wanted to expand the organization, and he would start training after everyone was ready, so what was there to discuss. However, after listening to Gu Xifeng's words, he realized that he had thought about this matter too simply.

It turned out that Gu Xifeng had been in the army for a long time, and he was well versed in the truth that soldiers are expensive but not expensive. After the establishment of the 5,000-man army, how to reach the current level of the Eagle Yang Army is really a difficult problem. You must know that the original Yingyang army was only 100 people, and it was personally trained by Wang Yangming, and the so-called small ship turned around, and soon developed an extremely outstanding individual quality.

But with 5,000 people, Wang Yangming trains with this method, and he can't keep an eye on everyone personally, and the training effect will inevitably be greatly reduced. Wang Yangming frowned and was silent, thinking of a way, and in a blink of an eye, he saw that Gu Xifeng seemed to be confident, and then smiled: "I see that you have already achieved something in your heart, hurry up and tell me about it." ”

Gu Xifeng smiled slightly: "If you want to train these five thousand people well, the only way is to train separately." ”

Gu Xifeng's method is very simple, scatter the remaining 90 people of the original Yingyang Army, and each group of two is responsible for training more than 100 recruits. These old men of the Eagle Yang Army are all experienced in a hundred battles, and their strength is enough, and they will definitely be able to ensure that the combat strength of the expanded Eagle Yang Army will not be reduced. After the training of the recruits is successful, they will join forces again, and Wang Yangming will practice the formation to form a joint force.

Gu Xifeng said reasonably, Wang Yangming nodded his head, and decided to do so. The two discussed and agreed, Wang Yangming walked around the barracks, and saw that there was nothing else, so he took his leave.

Three days later, 5,000 recruits were indeed in place, including some students from Guozijian, students from other academies across the country, and young people from all walks of life who had been called to join the army. Hu Zongxian, a student of Guozijian who had a relationship with Wang Yangming, happened to be assigned to the Eagle Yang Army.

Wang Yangming saw that although these people were good and bad, they were all young people, and he expected that their plasticity was extremely high, and as long as they were seriously trained here, they could train into a new army of a hundred battles. He dispersed the Eagle Yang Army on the spot according to Gu Xifeng's method and went back to train separately. He himself left the barracks and went to Boyan's house.

Boyan had an important task entrusted to him.

Boyan was reviewing the list of personnel who had recently joined the Northwest Army, and when he saw Wang Yangming coming, he asked him to sit down with a smile and asked, "How is the training of the Yingyang New Army? Are those recruits still obedient?"

Wang Yangming nodded and said, "With Lao Gu in charge of the overall situation, don't worry." ”

Boyan was noncommittal: "Don't take it lightly. Among these newcomers, there are some people who come from unusual backgrounds, but they are not easy to convince people. ”

Wang Yangming was puzzled, Boyan saw his expression, and knew that he really didn't know anything, so he had to explain: "I have already read the roster of recruits, and this time even the children of the four royal martial arts families have come to join the army, these people are not comparable to ordinary recruits. ”

I've never heard of the four martial artists.

After Boyan's explanation, Wang Yangming learned that the original Great Xia was established by force, and the emperor started with soldiers and horses, resisted the Great Shang Dynasty, fought against the Xiongnu in the north, and also blocked the second invasion of the demons.

In this protracted war, San Yisheng certainly played a great role, but he is not an immortal, and he can't rely on him alone. The emperor also gathered a large number of elite warriors around him to serve him. These people came from the four big families, and after the founding of the Great Xia, the emperor rewarded the four families as the four families of the imperial martial arts.

The four families of the imperial martial arts, swords, guns and swords. These four are the Heavenly Sword Gate, the Dragon Spear Gate, the Immortal Sword Gate, and the Divine Fist Gate. The status of the four major families in the Great Xia Kingdom is transcendent, and the disciples in the sect are all martial arts practitioners, and they set up separate family private schools to teach their children martial arts and literature, and the main parts of these four families are scattered in the provinces of Great Xia, not in Chang'an. Therefore, Wang Yangming has been in Chang'an Guozijian for so long, and he has never seen these four people.

Wang Yang Mingqi said: "Since you are the emperor's minister, do you dare to disobey the military orders?"

Boyan sighed lightly: "There is a difference between relatives and aliens. Although my Great Xia army is loyal to the emperor, the four royal martial arts families have been following since the emperor started the army, and after so many years, they have long been regarded as henchmen by the emperor, and their children are naturally different from the children of ordinary scholars. Therefore, I am worried that after these people come to our Northwest Army, they may not be able to listen to the dispatch of superior officers in everything. ”

Wang Yangming saw that Boyan was such a high-ranking official, and he was very concerned about the so-called four royal martial arts, and he couldn't help but be a little worried in his heart. But after thinking about it, these children of the family were born in the peaceful years, pampered, as long as they take them to see the cruelty of the battlefield once, these people will definitely understand the truth that training is for their own survival, and then they don't have to force themselves, they will also train desperately.

Boyan closed the roster and stood up, Wang Yangming also hurriedly stood up, Boyan pondered for a long time, and said slowly: "I called you here today because I have a big deal to explain." ”

Wang Yangming saw that his expression was serious, and he didn't know what big thing he was going to say. At present, there is nothing to do in the Northwest Army, and everyone is stepping up preparations for war. Although the matter of uniting the Khorezm Kingdom to wage war against the fifteen countries of the Western Regions next year is still in a state of top secret, the high-ranking officials above the third rank above the court know the inside story, and no one else in the Northwest Army knows the news except for Boyan, Qin Chonghai and himself as Eagle Yang soldiers. However, the tense atmosphere in the army still aroused everyone's emotions, and everyone knew that there would be a battle plan in the near future, but they just didn't know where to use the troops.

"I want you to catch a mysterious spy lurking in our army. ”

Bo Yan's words were shocking, Wang Yangming's heart moved, and he looked at him nervously, not knowing why he suddenly said this.

"Do you remember the last time we fought with the 40,000 allied forces of the Hu people led by the black-robed guy?" Boyan looked at Wang Yangming and asked slowly.

Of course I do. Although a long time has passed since that incident, because of that battle, Wang Yangming was forced to pair with the black robe alone, and forcibly opened the Eight Doors Dunjia and was seriously injured. This is the first time he has been so seriously injured since his debut, and he naturally misses it.

"That time, I thought I was using myself as a bait to lure the black robe out, and then ordered Qin Chonghai to set up an ambush on the periphery to wipe out all the black-robed military horses. However, I failed. Although Boyan said that he had failed, he had no shame on his face, and he did not care about victory or defeat for a while.

After he reminded him, Wang Yangming finally remembered that the battle situation was very strange at that time, originally they estimated that there were only 15,000 soldiers and horses, and the 40,000 people on their side could eat all the other party no matter what.

When Wang Yangming and others went to the Savage Valley to rescue Boyan, they heard him say that there was a traitor in the army. At this moment, thinking of Boyan's words at that time, Wang Yangming's heart was shocked, but he asked: "The marshal already knew that there was a problem in the army, why did he endure it until today?"

Boyan shook his head lightly, his eyes were a little unhappy: "I didn't just do it today, I have already paid attention to this matter." ”

After returning from the last battle with the Hu people, Boyan immediately ordered the scout battalion to secretly investigate the spies, but after a year of searching, nothing was found. Bo Yan was shocked in his heart, this spy must be very deeply hidden, and his position in the Northwest Army is extremely high, so the scout battalion can't find this person's head. He was afraid that he would be alarmed if he continued to investigate, so he suspended the investigation.
