The 50,000 officers and men of the New Army went through 25 rounds of battles, and it took three full days before it ended.

Because each soldier was holding a wooden stick stained with pink paint, and there were no clusters of arrows on the arrows, those who were touched by the pink paint were considered "killed".

This is a last resort to avoid having too many casualties in a large-scale military exercise.

Rao is like this, there are not a few soldiers who have been injured and seriously injured, and some soldiers are even disabled for life, or some have died directly.

Why is this happening?

Because the soldiers of the Wu army were strong-blooded, they were really red-eyed, but regardless of it, the wooden stick directly greeted the head, or punched and kicked......

Some of the worse people were directly crushed by the wheels of the chariot, or trampled to death by the war horse!

This made Qingji extremely dissatisfied.

However, he knew that these casualties were inevitable in the military exercise.

"Meng Ben, Gou Jian."

"The minister is here!"

With the shouting of Qingji on the high platform, Meng Ben and Gou Jian, who were standing in the crowd behind, immediately stood up in response.

"The widow may not have seen the Royal Forest Army and the Tiger Army fight each other for a long time, so each of you will lead a thousand sharp soldiers under your command to conduct a military exercise. The winner will be rewarded with money and rice as in the old system. ”

"No!"

Meng Ben and Gou Jian suddenly received the order with excited expressions.

It is worth mentioning that at this time, Meng Ben was the Zhonglang General of the Yulin Army, called "Yulin Zhonglang General", and Gou Jian was the Zhonglang General of the Tiger Ben Army, called "Tiger Ben Zhonglang General".

Don't look at the position of just the lieutenant generals, their status is very high, and the title is not low!

Meng Ben's title is a doctor, and Gou Jian is a "Marquis of Yue", and they all have their own food.

In the twentieth level military merit title system, Gou Jian is now the seventh level, the public doctor.

Meng Ben is the eighth level, public ride.

Among all the generals of the Wu State, the person with the highest military merit title is none other than the Great Sima Sun Wu.

Sun Wu is the tenth level, and he is the head of the left!

However, Gou Jian is different from Sun Wu and Meng Ben.

Sun Wu is the minister of Qingji, the pillar of the country, with outstanding military achievements and a prominent reputation.

Meng Ben is Qingji's veteran-level hero, he has followed Qingji since he went to the battlefield, and has followed Qingji for more than ten years, born and died, and loyal.

In that year, Qingji raised troops from the defense of the country and went south, returned to Wudu, and successfully seized the throne, Meng Ben, Heifu and others made great achievements for Qingji.

What is Gou Jian's origin?

He was originally the son of Yunchang, the king of Yue, and the crown prince of the Yue Kingdom.

However, after the destruction of the Yue Kingdom, the Wu State still treated Gou Jian well, allowing him to inherit the title of "Marquis of Yue" in Yunchang, and was given 500 households by Qingji.

To a large extent, Qingji is to take care of the emotions of the Yue people, which is the kind of Goujian.

It's just that Gou Jian is very competitive, and he joined the Tiger Ben Army by himself, and since he joined the army, he has always taken the lead.

In the previous wars of Wu and the battle of Huaishui, Gou Jian also captured the Marquis of Qi and made great contributions.

After that, when Gou Jian followed Qingji out on patrol, he broke the Southern Barbarian army led by Fucha in Juwu.

Immediately afterwards, Gou Jian passed through the path of Queen Ji Qi and followed Sun Wu and Sun Li brothers and sisters to join the Southern Expedition Army, conquer the rebels in the six counties of Lingnan, and expand the territory for the Wu State.

Therefore, in just three years, Gou Jian, who is only seventeen years old, has already paid homage to General Yulin Zhonglang, the duke doctor, and his future is limitless!

"The king, Gu Qian (Gou Jian) since he joined the army, he has always fought bravely to kill the enemy, and he has worked hard to read the military book at night, and the concubine believes that this time Gu Qian will have a bright performance."

Queen Ji Qi, who was standing beside Qingji, smiled and said.

This made Qingji's heart very uncomfortable.

After all, he is personally not optimistic about Gou Jian.

Just like Wu Zixu said, Gou Jian has the appearance of an eagle and a wolf, and he can't live under people for a long time.

It's just that in Qingji's lifetime, Gou Jian could only work for him in a proper manner, and was born and died for Wu Guo.

Once the celebration is gone, it will be difficult to say!

If it was his sister Ji Qi's son who succeeded him, maybe Gou Jian would still be able to settle down, no matter how bad it was, it would be impossible to take away the Jiangshan Sheji of Wu State.

Gou Jian is good at forbearance, and he knows this Qingji.

It's just that because of the situation, Qingji can't deliberately suppress Gou Jian, or assassinate him unknowingly.

This is not because Qingji has the kindness of a woman, but that Gou Jian is really too reluctant, so that Qingji can't find any reason to put him to death.

Just like Cao Cao and Sima Yi in the late Han Dynasty, Cao Mengde dreamed of "three horses in the same groove", and saw that Sima Yi had a heart of disobedience, and he had a backbone in the back of his head, but he didn't kill him, why?

Because there is no excuse to find!

Although there is no excuse for wanting to add sin, how can an ambitious king kill a minister who has no trace of revenge and seems to be loyal to him?

Gou Jian is more powerful than Sima Yi is to Cao Cao!

Why?

Because Gou Jian is the younger brother of Queen Ji Qi, the brother-in-law of Qingji, and the heir of Yue Hou and Yue Kingdom!

With these identities, if Qingji dares to execute Gou Jian indiscriminately, he will definitely risk the condemnation of the world and be criticized by all the people.

Qingji is not afraid of being infamous by himself, but he is afraid that this incident will make Wu Guo deviate from morality up and down, and the courtiers are afraid of Qingji and alienate him.

It is precisely because it is too troublesome to kill Gou Jian for no reason that Qingji will always keep Gou Jian.

I didn't expect Gou Jian to be so competitive, relying on his military exploits and the relationship between Queen Ji Qi, he really stood out and became a real powerful general!

Fortunately, Gou Jian has always been cautious, and he has not formed gangs in the DPRK and the army, or has contact with the Yue people in private, otherwise Qing Ji will definitely punish him if he catches a handle of Gou Jian.

Even if you don't kill, you have to denounce!

To change what the big guy in a film and television drama said: Domineering and exposed, looking for death!

It's a pity that Gou Jian is too forbearing, and he can be the general of the Tiger Ben, which is still Qingji's own decision, and it has little to do with Queen Ji Qi, the "Brother Demon".

Because only by putting Gou Jian under his nose can Qingji be truly at ease.

"Queen, Gou Jian's efforts are seen in the eyes and remembered by all the widows."

Qingji smiled slightly and said, "However, Meng Ben is a rare member of the fierce generals under the command of the widow, and the Yulin Army is even more unstoppable under his training. ”

"Gou Jian led the Tiger Ben Army, whether he can defeat Meng Ben's Yulin Army head-on on the battlefield, it's hard to say."

Not long after, a thousand soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army and a thousand soldiers of the Yulin Army, under the leadership of Gou Jian and Meng Ben, came to the school field and started a confrontation.

However, what is extremely surprising is that the soldiers of the Yulin Army on Meng Ben's side can be said to have all kinds of troops, such as charioteers, infantry, crossbowmen, and shield soldiers.

On the other hand, the soldiers of Goujian's Tiger Army turned out to be all lightly armed, not even wearing armor, only wearing crimson battle clothes.

There were no horses or chariots!
