All the recruits whose names were read by Cao Zhen straightened their waists one by one, and proudly greeted the envious eyes of others.

As the saying goes, a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier. Since these young people have chosen to join the army, they must have wanted to get a chance to be promoted, but this time they chose the captain of the army, but there was an incredible scene.

Originally, according to this performance, Ye Ying's five-person group would be dismantled, and Qi Jiao, Zhao Hu and Shan Fu, who had outstanding performance, could all be adjusted to other teams as captains, but these guys were like their heads were caught by the door, expressing their desire to stay and serve as an ordinary soldier.

The appeal of the three of them quickly reached the ears of Cao Zhen, the commander of the battalion, and he quickly agreed, so several members of the five-person team successfully became at least the second strongest in the recruit battalion.

It is the nature of young people to worship the strong, Ye Ying's wonderful performance also conquered all the recruits in the same camp, I don't know when it started, everyone began to call him the boss and became the most famous figure in the camp.

Every day when he returned to the camp, there were always people who actively did all kinds of things for Ye Ying, but he refused, because he wanted everyone to get along like brothers.

Why do everyone think that they are the second most powerful? That's because this time in the competition in the recruit camp, there was a super bull, and his realm actually reached the middle realm of a second-grade martial artist.

This person's name is Zheng Hao, and he is recognized as the first person in the new barracks, and someone in the new barracks has analyzed his strength, thinking that with his strength, he can defeat Ye Yingyi, who has four martial arts realm powerhouses.

There is also Qi Jiao, this guy is a strange person, after fighting with Ye Ying, he lost convincingly. After that, this guy, who has always liked others to respect him, actually willingly became Ye Ying's little brother, like Shan Fu and Zhao Hu at any time, "boss" and "boss" kept calling.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this selection is just the beginning, those who enter should not be arrogant, and those who do not enter should not be discouraged. In the army, only if you are willing to work hard, there will be many opportunities to surpass others, and the fear is not that you are weak, but that you do not have an upward heart. The voice of the battalion commander Cao Zhen sounded in the field again, which brought brilliance to the eyes of some people who were a little depressed.

"After January, there will be an opportunity to test the results of everyone's efforts, that is, "100 warriors to compete for the championship", I hope that our new battalion can make a historic breakthrough in this competition, I am very optimistic about everyone. Cao Zhen's voice was sonorous and motivating.

Strictly speaking, the training in the early stage of the recruit camp is actually a kind of ability test, and the officers in the battalion have roughly understood the basic situation of the recruits from the training in these days, and have found out some recruits with various specialties, and also found some objects that can be focused on training.

The next month was the official training, and the content and intensity of the training were very different from the previous period.

The first is a set of simple boxing techniques, which require each recruit to be proficient, which is a life-saving skill in hand-to-hand combat, so each recruit also learns it very seriously.

More important is the training of weapons, the battalion sent experienced veterans to carry out training in several common weapons in the army, such as swords, shields, spears, bows and arrows, and broadswords.

Sword and shield, the soldier needs to hold the shield in his left hand and the knife in his right hand, and when the opponent makes a long-range attack, raise the shield in his left hand to block the bow and arrow thrown by the enemy.

In melee combat, the knife in the right hand will be used to engage in melee combat with the enemy. In other cases, countless sword and shield soldiers can be combined to raise a huge shield in front of the soldier as a bulwark against enemy attacks.

In siege warfare, you can stand your shields on top of your head, and then lean against each other to get closer to the enemy's city, which can greatly reduce the damage of the enemy's arrows and crossbows and flying stones.

This veteran is indeed very experienced, from how to hold a shield and a sword, how to use a shield for defense, and how to cooperate with a sword and shield for hand-to-hand combat, and even rolling to cut the legs of cavalry horses.

Bows and arrows are the most commonly used weapons for long-range attacks, while archery training requires the coordination of hands, eyes, body, and mind.

The veteran told in detail from the several links of standing, archery, stringing, pre-pulling, opening the bow, aiming, unstringing, and relaxing, and carefully guided every movement of the recruit.

Although many recruits had been exposed to bows and arrows before, they had never undergone such systematic training, so in this training, the bows and arrows they shot had greatly improved in terms of strength and crosshair.

Even people with outstanding archery skills like Ye Ying and Qi Jiao, through the teaching of these veterans, have a deeper understanding, which has greatly helped them improve their archery skills.

The spear has the reputation of "the king of weapons", it is the most visible close-quarters long weapon on the battlefield, it can attack and defend, it can fight with the enemy with a gun, and it can also attack and project from a distance.

When the two armies fought in close combat, the spear had a clear advantage over the sword, shield, sword or bow and arrow because of its length and piercing ability.

Ye Ying's kung fu is mainly passed on by the second master Ye Fei's Ye family skills, among which the spear skills are the most prominent, so Ye Ying's marksmanship attainments are much better than the veterans who taught marksmanship. But he didn't show it, because the second master had told him that once Ying Shuai's famous stunt "Ye Long Eight Style" was performed, it might cause him a lot of trouble.

The marksmanship training in the recruit camp mainly collapses, points, pierces, splits, circles, picks, and plucks, etc., which are all common methods of marksmanship, requiring winding and turning in a circle, and appropriate strength. This is still a big gap with the Ye family's marksmanship, but it is better than simple movements, and most of the recruits can master it quickly.

A master of using a gun like Ye Ying can master the essentials almost a few times, unlike the "Ye Long Eight Styles" he learned, it took two years of hard work to learn the first style of "Lazy Dragon Turning".

The long-handled broadsword is a good supplement to the spear, and it is also a very important long weapon in the army, although its attack speed and flexibility are slightly inferior to the spear, but this kind of long knife can be cut and stabbed, for the soldier with sufficient strength, it is used to break through the opponent's defensive formation, especially the sharp weapon of the shield formation.

Other weapons, such as crossbows, halberds, hammers, axes, etc., were used by the recruits. According to the words of Cao Zhen, the commander of the battalion, the battlefield is changing rapidly, and any situation can be encountered, so every weapon should be used, and only those with strong adaptability will have a greater chance of being alive on the battlefield.

In general, this month's training has played a very obvious role for these recruits, and their personal abilities have been greatly improved, regardless of whether they have a foundation or not.

For Ye Ying, the greater gain is the ability to fight collectively, and the battalion commander Cao Zhen told all the soldiers that on the battlefield, if they only rely on individual combat, the casualties are particularly huge. Even if your kung fu is very high, if you are surrounded by enemies, it will be difficult to have a chance to escape.

Therefore, the recruit battalion attaches great importance to the coordinated operation between soldiers, and sets up a very effective five-person formation with each group of five people.

In this formation, everyone has a clear division of labor, some people are responsible for the central scheduling, using long weapons or bows and arrows for long-range attacks, some people are responsible for attacking, attacking the enemy from the front, and some people are responsible for defense, so that the people in front can tear and kill the enemy without hesitation.

You can also rotate with each other, so five people can coordinate and work together to kill as many enemies as possible on the battlefield and reduce their own casualties.

Considering the possibility of attrition due to casualties on the battlefield, the battalion also trained four, three, or even two people to work together in some ways, so that the soldiers could work closely together even if they were temporarily grouped.

I have to say that Cao Zhen was able to become the battalion commander of the new barracks, and he did have his advantages. After more than a month of training, the combat ability and self-confidence of the soldiers in the new barracks have been markedly improved.

The training of the recruit camp has been in full swing for more than a month, but it has to be suspended for the past few days, because an activity that is very important to the new barracks -- "100 Warriors Fighting for the Championship" is about to begin.

Cao Zhen, the commander of the battalion, announced that all soldiers would rest for two days and be ready to participate in the "100 Warriors Competition."

These days, all the recruits already know what is going on with the "Hundred Warriors Competing for the Championship", and although this "Hundred Warriors Competing for the Championship" is called "Hundred Warriors", there are more than 100 Warriors (500 people) actually participating.

In addition to the 500 people from the recruit battalion to participate, the other two battalions stationed near the new barracks, the Shaoshan Battalion and the Baisheng Battalion, will also have 500 people to participate in this competition.

And the soldiers of these two battalions are not new recruits, they are all veterans of at least one year in the army, and many of them have even really been on the battlefield, so their experience and combat power are definitely stronger than those of the new battalion.

The process of "100 battalions fighting for the crown" is that the 100 battalions sent by each of the three battalions will continue to be eliminated after three stages of fighting with each other, so as to determine the final winner.

The first stage is called "Narrow Road Encounter", that is, the recruit battalion, the Shaking Mountain Battalion and the Baisheng Battalion each send a team to "tear apart" each other in a specified space, and each team "kills" the enemy as much as possible, and only by "killing" all the enemies can their own team be considered or victorious.

The five-player team that "died" will be eliminated and will not be able to participate in the next round of battles.

After a hundred tear-ups, two hundred soldiers (one thousand) will be eliminated, and the remaining one hundred will be able to enter the second stage of the competition.

The second stage is called "You Have Me", and the remaining 100 troops are randomly arranged in a wide area with complex terrain, attacking each other, and the loser must hand over the small wooden card representing the qualification to the winner, and then withdraw from the competition area.

The time of this competition is three days, and after three days, if there is no annihilation, the army can enter the third stage of the competition, and the participating teams determine the ranking of this round of competition according to the number of small wooden cards obtained.

Compared with the first stage, which only has strong combat power, the second stage is much more flexible. Contestants can hide their teams, form a defensive formation, or take the initiative to attack, which can not only combine vertical and horizontal, but also act alone, so it is more a test of the decision-making ability of each participating team.

The third stage is called "Victory of the Banner", in which the surplus soldiers of the three battalions are no longer in separate formations, but gather together and work together to rush to the top of the mountain, and the battalion that is the first to reach the top of the mountain to obtain the "victory flag" placed on the top of the mountain and spread it on the top of the mountain is the victor.

The first two phases tested the individual combat capabilities of each armed force, while the third stage tested the ability of the various armed forces to coordinate operations, not only to prevent the soldiers of the other two battalions from going up the mountain, but also to find ways to let their own people climb to the top and capture the flag as soon as possible.

This kind of competition is actually a great loss for the recruit battalion, and in the past competitions, there have even been tragic cases in which the recruit battalion soldiers were all eliminated in the first stage of the competition.
