After discussing Liu Bang and his person with Li Si, Yingzheng decided to rest for a day, and then take Liu Bang to Lishan to worship Liu An.

Since it is a rest, it is time to rest and adjust.

What do you have to do when you have a break?

Of course, it is to accompany a few ladies.

The night before, Ying Zheng was busy sending off his son, and at this moment, he wanted to accompany Nansu and Hu Yu more.

In the morning, Ying Zheng accompanied Nansu, chatting, drinking tea, and teasing the child in Nansu's belly.

At noon, I accompanied the five ladies to dinner.

After lunch, Ying Zheng accompanied Hu Yu to the training ground in Mengfu.

Although Hu Yu came here almost every day to watch the New Army's drills, this time he was accompanied by Ying Zheng, and his mood was naturally very good.

"How do you feel about watching the training of the new army in the past few days?" Ying Zheng asked.

"Of course." Hu Yu said with a smile, "It's the first time I've grown so big, it's the first time I've seen soldiers trained like this, it's really fun." ”

In Hu Yu's cognition, the training on the training ground is always much better than the singing and dancing in the palace.

"They're just practicing a foundation." Ying Zheng said meaningfully, "If the widow creates all the divine soldiers, then the training method will be very different. ”

"How different?" Hu Yu asked curiously.

"Well...... Ying Zheng didn't know what was different, so he could only deal with it mysteriously, "You'll know when the time comes." ”

"Cut." Hu Yu pursed his lips and said, "You haven't seen the king either, don't think about being a concubine." ”

Ying Zheng: "......"

At this time, Wei Yu had just finished the training of a group of armor soldiers, walked to Ying Zheng's side, and bowed down to greet him.

Ying Zheng held Wei Yi's arm and asked earnestly, "How is it, has there been any progress in the past few days?" ”

Wei Yi smiled and said: "Back to the king, since it is a new army, and the training is a new way, it is natural that there is progress every day, especially in the early stage, the progress is especially obvious. ”

"Okay, okay." Ying Zheng couldn't close his mouth with a smile.

Hu Yu asked on the side: "Lord Duwei, this palace has been here for a few days, and when I saw your training, I asked the armor to do some strange movements, and sometimes I practiced climbing over the wall, crossing the river, or something, why is this?" ”

Hu Yu asked a question that had been bothering her for a few days, and if it weren't for Ying Zheng accompanying her, she would not be embarrassed to come forward to disturb Wei Yu and ask casually.

"Madame Hui." Wei Yu arched his hand to Hu Yu and said, "This kind of training method, in fact, is mainly practiced as the basic personal quality of the soldiers, which can enhance their physical fitness, endurance, speed, explosiveness, etc., and only when these foundations are laid can their individual combat ability be greatly improved, otherwise, if the ability is not good, not only can not use the magic weapon better, but also delay the use of the formation." ”

Hu Yu nodded thoughtfully: "So that's the case." ”

"Wei Chen saw that his wife came to watch the training of the new army every day, presumably out of hobby, I don't know what to say, and I hope to give advice." Wei Yu said modestly.

"Don't dare to teach." Hu Yu smiled and waved his hand, and said, "I'm just curious, and everything is new." ”

"If you think it's good, Madame can watch it as much as you like." Wei Yu said with a smile.

Hu Yu said with some eagerness: "If it weren't for the fact that I was pregnant, I really wanted to go up and practice with them, your lord, look at that group, how interesting." ”

Ying Zheng looked in the direction that Hu Yu was pointing, and the group of armor soldiers were jumping forward like frogs.

The scorching sun was in the sky, and the light refracted from them felt quite dazzling, probably because of sweat.

"Hehe, it's funny." Ying Zheng laughed and put on a straight face, "However, you must be patient, and after the birth is over, you can practice as much as you like." ”

"The concubine knows." After Hu Yu agreed, he made a grimace.

"This training method, if you like it, you can recommend it to Zhao Guo, and if King Zhao likes it, you can also try to practice." Ying Zheng said sincerely.

"Really?" Hu Yu asked.

"Of course it's true." Ying Zheng said with a smile, "You can ask King Zhao and his old man to send an envoy to come and study with you, so that you don't get bored alone." ”

"Haha......" Hu Yu said with a smile, "I am still the wise king, and when I turn around, my concubine will write a letter to my father." ”

A country's military is a very important core secret.

However, Ying Zheng seems to be very generous to the New Army.

In fact, this is also the strategy that he and Li Si have agreed on a long time ago, highlighting the deterrent power of "my weapon", and letting the countries chase the wind and catch the shadows, and if they want to study it, they can't find a clue, so they can only hear every day that Qin Guo has recently made some magic soldiers and trained new troops.

In this way, even if the countries have a plan to unite to attack Qin, they will be timid and dare not take action easily.

And the Qin State can develop with peace of mind for ten years, and these ten years are the agreement between the old man in white and Ying Zheng, and it is also the opportunity for the Qin State to further grow.

And Ying Zheng can concentrate on developing his own power in order to take the lead in regaining royal power.

Therefore, there are many benefits to publicizing the "self-weapon" of the divine soldier to the outside world, but of course it will not let the countries come into contact with the core things.

At this time, Wei Yu said to Ying Zheng: "I heard that Admiral Wang sent most of the craftsmen of the Jing family class to Lishan, so our gambling contract will be canceled." ”

Wei Yu was probably afraid that he would not be able to win.

Ying Zheng smiled and waved his hand, and said: "It's not necessary, this Jingjia class forging divine soldiers does not rely on people, but on those instruments that have been manufactured, as long as the number of craftsmen operating the equipment is enough, it will not delay the casting of divine soldiers, besides, Jing Fan They have already made a complete set of instruments for backup, if you want to speed up the rate of production, you can start the two sets of instruments at the same time." ”

"In that case, Wechen may not really be able to win." Wei Yu said.

"Hahaha......" both laughed at the same time.

Ying Zheng seemed to have thought of something, and after suppressing his laughter, he asked, "By the way, the widow remembers that the captain once said that he had written some books on military affairs and the art of war before. ”

"Not bad." Wei Yu nodded and said, "If the king wants to read it, Weichen will give it to the king." ”

"Okay, then there's Captain Laudu." Ying Zheng arched his hand and said.

Ying Zheng left Hu Yu to watch the training in the training ground, and then came to the residence arranged by Meng Wu for Wei Yu with Wei Yu.

There are really a lot of military books and military techniques written by Wei Yu, some of them are written in brocade silk, some are written in bamboo slips, some are Wei Yu's own works, and some are Wei Yu's analysis of the famous works in history.

Ying Zheng was overjoyed, picked up what he liked, handed it to Zhao Gao, and ordered Zhao Gao to send it back to the palace.

However, Ying Zheng didn't pick a very important one, after all, Wei Yu was still trying his best to create a new army formation, and his main purpose was to deal with Liu Bang.

The two returned to the training ground, Wei Yu continued to train the new army, and Ying Zheng accompanied Hu Yu to watch.

At the same time, within the Qin realm, there were two other new armies that were also training.

One is the new army established by Chang Yu in Yongcheng, named Changxin Army.

One is the Western Chu Army composed of mountain bandits recruited by Changping Jun Xiong Qi.

Yongcheng, Changxin Marquis Mansion.

"Master Hou, this is the roster of the warriors recruited today, please take a look." Master Liu Yuan handed a roster to Chang Yu's eyes.

Chang Yu took the roster, looked at it briefly, and then handed it to a warrior dressed as a general sitting beside him.

This person's name is Tuoba Hai, and he is also a descendant of the Yiqu tribe, strong, tall and strong, and has excellent martial arts, and it is said that he is still the clan of the Yiqu royal family, and is quite respected in Yongcheng, and now he is the commander of the new army established by Chang Yu.

"Since King Qin left, how many people have been recruited?" Chang Yu looked at Liu Yuan and asked.

"Back to the Hou Ye, a total of about 32,000 people have been recruited." Liu Yuan replied.

"Good!" Chang Yu said happily, "Continue to recruit, don't stop, when you recruit 100,000 horses, Ben Hou will further consider whether you need to continue recruiting." ”

"One hundred thousand?" Liu Yuan was quite surprised and said, "With this amount, I'm afraid our military salary can't afford to supply it." ”

"Don't worry." Chang Yu said quite calmly, "Benhou will reduce some of the expenses of the Qi Nian Palace, and if there is still a shortage, then the taxes in Shanyang and other places will be filled." ”

"I'm afraid it's not appropriate." Liu Yuan doubted, "Those taxes are the private property of the Hou Ye, if they are all used to fill the military, I am afraid it will be ......."

"Aren't these soldiers also Benhou's private soldiers?" Chang Yu raised his hand to block Liu Yuan's words, "It is only natural to provide for the government soldiers by yourself, not to mention, if you don't plant seeds, how can you harvest food?" ”

"Hahaha, what the young master said is reasonable." Tuoba Hai on the side said with a smile.

Chang Yu looked at Tuoba Hai and asked, "What support do you need for your training over there?" ”

Tuoba Hai looked slightly embarrassed: "Back to the young master, this recruit is increasing day by day, and the most difficult thing is that there are not so many weapons, if there are no weapons, then daily training is difficult to guarantee." ”

Indeed, according to the preparation provided by Xianyang, the ordnance is also a vacancy.

"Then buy from a foreign country, and if you can't buy it, borrow it, and return it to them when we have made our own ordnance." Chang Yu said, "I heard that King Qin's side has created a few new weapons, and we can't afford to fall behind in this regard." ”

"Yes." Tuoba Hai arched his hand and said, "The subordinates obey the order." ”

"And." Chang Yu looked at Tuoba Hai and said, "In the future, don't call Benhou Young Master again, the identity of Benhou can't be known to anyone, especially at this critical time." ”

"The last general commands." Tuoba Hai said.

"You two go and get busy, Ben Hou is going to talk to the Queen Mother about military salaries." Chang Yu said.

The two men answered, and bowed their hands back.

Looking at their backs, Chang Yu's eyes rolled rapidly, not knowing what he was thinking.

On the other side, on the outskirts of Yingcheng, the camp of the Western Chu army.

Several centurions gathered around a thousand-commander, looking at the crossbow in the commander's hand with burning eyes.

"Commander, this is the new type of flying crossbow?" One of the centurions asked.

"yes." The commander said, "This is a flying crossbow, how about it, it looks good." ”

"Beautiful." Several centurions said in unison.

"Why is it just this one, don't we have any?" One of the centurions asked.

"Not yet." The commander replied, "Just this one, it was not easy to get it, it is said that the king of Qin gave five hundred to General Xiang Yan, and General Xiang Yan gave three hundred to Changping Jun in return." ”

"I also heard that the entire Western Chu Army can only be equipped with generals above the commander of a thousand commanders, and the rest, I heard that a flying crossbow battalion is going to be formed." Another, slightly older centurion, said.

"That's true." "It is said that this crossbow takes a lot less effort than a longbow and has a longer range. ”

When everyone heard this, their eyes became even more eager.

"However, in charge, why did you say that General Xiang gave so much to Changpingjun, wouldn't it be better to bring them back to Chu himself." A centurion said.

"What's in charge." The commander reprimanded, "We are no longer on our own mountain, and we will all be commensurate with the commander in the future, remember?" ”

"Yes, yes, my subordinates remember." The centurion scratched the back of his head.

The commander glared at him, and then didn't say anything.

"Anyway, since this flying crossbow has been given back, let's not think about any reason, just use it." Another centurion said.

The commander thought for a moment and said, "I'm just wondering if General Xiang is hinting at something." ”

The crowd was silent, pondering what the commander had said.

I don't know who said it again: "You say, is it possible for us to be incorporated into the Chu State by General Xiang in the future, and now it is just a transition." ”

The commander looked around, lowered his voice and said: "I called you together, just to hear your opinions, at the beginning, we rushed to General Xiang's reputation to be recruited to become the Western Chu Army, and this next step, how to go, have you thought about it?" ”

Two of the centurions shook their heads.

Those who didn't shake their heads must have thought about this issue.

One of them said: "I have thought about it, after all, this is not a trivial matter, the opinion of the whole family, is that since there is a chance to take off the hat of the mountain bandit, then we must grasp this opportunity to be a soldier, after all, Changping Jun He is also a Chu person, and he is also upright, follow him, you can't be wrong." ”

"Yes, no matter whether Daqin recognizes us or not, as long as Changping Jun recognizes us, then we are no longer mountain bandits." Another said.

"Yes, follow Changpingjun to the end."

Everyone chimed in.

The commander motioned to everyone to be quiet: "Okay, with your words, let's practice seriously in the future and become an upright Western Chu army!" ”

"Good!" The crowd almost cheered.
