"Raise your head, lift your chest, tighten your abdomen, lift your buttocks!" Holding a dark whip, the instructor's eagle-like eyes glanced back and forth sharply. Li Yan and his cousin Li Mou stood upright with serious faces.

In the entire campus, there are dozens of classes like them, with a total number of one thousand people. They were all selected from among the five thousand Jinshi to receive officer training at the Royal Military Academy.

The standard is that they have answered some questions on military formations in the exam.

From the time they received the transfer order to today, they have been training like this for more than two months. It is now late April, and the spring plowing, which is crucial to the Chinese, has ended for more than a month.

"Brother, standing in this military posture is more tiring than standing on horseback." As the instructor walked away, Li Mou hurriedly glanced at his cousin Li Yan who was on his right.

The two brothers have been studying and practicing martial arts together since they were young. Although they can't be said to have the same mind, they can still communicate with each other through their eyes. Li Yan understood what his cousin meant at a glance.

"Don't move around, be careful of the instructor's whip." Li Yan returned a look that kept quiet. Li Mou was helpless, his cousin didn't want to chat in this way to relieve his boredom, so he had to restrain his temper and stand patiently. For someone like him

For people who are successful in martial arts, military posture is even more difficult, far more uncomfortable than ordinary people.

Therefore, in this subject, they did not persist much longer than other Jinshi. However, although they are proud of their physical fitness, they can practice it here, but not much. Instead, they mainly focus on various rules and regulations and military tactics. This

Everyone's .asxs. were the same, so after some time, the two brothers sadly discovered that they, a talented person with both civil and military skills, had the same grades as those weak Jinshi.

This often made Li Mou curse secretly, saying that the people who set up this system had stifled the display of his talents as a general, leaving him with no chance to succeed. Of course, the scolding was reciprocated, but in various daily training, they still

You have to participate and work hard to complete.

Soon, an hour passed in silence. All the Jinshi were sweating profusely and their waists and legs were sore. But no one dared to move. This was a habit developed after being whipped countless times. Face the instructor a little.

Unrelenting whips, these proud men quickly learned the concept that rules and discipline are greater than God.

Da da da

Suddenly, a clear and sonorous sound came. The experienced instructors immediately determined that it was the sound of horseshoes trampling on the concrete pavement. A knight was running towards this direction.

This strange behavior immediately attracted the attention of almost all the instructors. You must know that this is the Royal Military Academy. Officers from the Yulin Army, Xiliu Army and even the Imperial Guard are trained here. Riding horses is not allowed on the campus.

Yes, even when the emperor came here to inspect, he dismounted at the door and walked in.

Such a strict rule was actually broken today. How could these instructors not be curious?

Soon, a knight appeared in their field of vision. His tight-fitting training uniform with separate clothes and pants made him look very capable. Behind him, there was a small flag, which was fluttering in the wind.

Military order in two big characters.

This is because the General Staff does not serve as messengers, and only messengers like them can ignore all the rules and run wild inside the school.

Soon, the messenger stopped in front of the commander-in-chief of military training and handed over an official document with both hands. He then mounted his horse and headed deeper into the academy, where the training center for serving officers was located.

Soon after, the order was conveyed. This officer training was over. All the trainees had finished their training and were assigned to the troops below. Before the astonished Jinshis could digest the news, the school officers with strong breaths and sharp expressions came.

Come and get people.

They were also trained in the military academy. After this general training, they will return to the military camp outside Yongding Gate, just in time to take back the new officers who have been assigned to their respective territories.

Amidst the chaos and noise, Li Yan and Li Mou were led away by a colonel who looked relatively honest.

"My surname is Zhang Mingya, and I am currently the commander of the Yulin Army's Cavalry Division. You two, come with me now." These simple words made the two of them understand where they were going.

"Yes, sir." After giving a military salute, the two brothers followed each other with their own military uniforms and daily necessities.

"Commander, which company are we divided into?" Li Mou, who was relatively thick-skinned, asked with a smile, not caring at all about the fact that young Zhang Ya was several years younger than him.

"Cavalry Division Staff." Zhang Ya replied with a sullen face, looking as cold as ice.

"Oh." Perhaps it was the other person's expression of "Don't get close to strangers" that made Li Mou feel a little scared, so he didn't ask further.

Seeing this, Zhang Ya breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Although his face was calm and he seemed to refuse people thousands of miles away, in fact, it was all pretending. Facing the Jinshi who had passed the college entrance examination, he felt a little panicked.

He was afraid that the other party would see that he had no education (compared to He Jinshi who was uneducated).

Although he has been with the emperor for seven or eight years, and he has been promoted from a soldier to the current rank of colonel, he is still worried when facing these old Jinshi masters who were called Wenquxing in the past. This has nothing to do with experience, but with academic qualifications.

It is related to knowledge and social atmosphere.

However, he was not an ordinary person after all. After dealing with it for a while, he took the two of them to the school gate and got used to it. In fact, he just needed to ignore their status as Jinshi and treat them as new recruits. Even though this recruit.

asxs. Very high, starting with the rank of lieutenant, but still cannot escape the identity of a recruit.

After thinking about this, Zhang Ya gradually calmed down and was able to treat the two of them with a normal heart. The cavalry division was assigned a lot of Jinshi, but these two were the only ones on the staff. I heard that these two were both good at both civil and military affairs.

Miaozi was not very old, so Zhang Ya went to pick her up in person out of concern.

After arriving at the school gate, the place was already full of horse-drawn carriages. Without hesitation, a few people picked one at random and drove away when it was full.

The entire carriage can seat ten people. In addition to Zhang Ya, there are two lieutenant colonels and several newly assigned Jinshi. Obviously, these two lieutenant colonels Zhang Ya know each other, but at this time they seem to have no idea.

There was no mood to speak, they just nodded to each other, leaned on the seats, closed their eyes and rested.

There was still a long way to go out of the city from here, so Li Mou couldn't bear it just sitting like this. After the carriage had been driving for a while, he finally couldn't restrain his curiosity and asked, "Sir, what on earth did you order him to do?"

, asking you to be so cautious."

Li Yan and Li Mou have been studying martial arts since they were young, and their achievements in both areas are not low. Naturally, they are not stupid people. They can tell something about the troops from the faces of the three school officers.

Hearing his message, Zhang Ya opened his eyes. After taking a deep look, he answered directly without covering up, "It's nothing, it's just arranging the army to prepare for war."

"Is there going to be a war?" Li Mou asked excitedly, and the surprising news attracted other Jinshi.

"Yes, and His Majesty is driving the expedition in person!" Zhang Ya once again broke the shocking news.

"The imperial commander personally goes on an expedition?!" Several Jinshi people cried out. They didn't expect that they would encounter the plot of the emperor's expedition in the play as soon as they arrived.
