The force realm warriors in the government army must be at least centurion level.
A warrior in the realm of strength like Wang Meng even became a captain.
According to the military establishment of the Qianyuan Dynasty, there were five hundred people per school, and the school captain could also be considered as the five hundred captain.
Of course, there is no such name.
Above the centurion is the lieutenant, and above the lieutenant is the captain of thousands.
The title of Commander-in-Chief is preceded by some miscellaneous titles, and he was also the lowest-level general in the Qianyuan Dynasty.
As for Qi-blood warriors, it is possible to become a centurion, but most Qi-blood warriors are at the rank of commander, commanding ten ordinary soldiers of the government army.
These more than a hundred Qi-blood warriors gathered together and expanded according to a one-to-ten ratio, and they could quickly raise a new army of a thousand people.
Previously, there were only more than a thousand standing troops in Pingcheng.
Such an eagerness to expand the army was obviously affected by the rapid deterioration of the situation.
Cao Su didn't know.
After the rebellion in the three southern states, the imperial court issued an imperial order to punish the thieves and perform meritorious service.
Pingcheng is to the south of Jiangning Mansion. If the Wanping Cult bandits move north, this will be the first line of defense.
Therefore, the order from Jiangning Prefecture was sent to Pingcheng, and the city lord of Pingcheng was ordered to recruit troops on his own.
Pingcheng used a large number of Qi-blood warriors to saturate the middle and lower-level officers of the army, and he was able to quickly raise an army of three thousand people.
"I am Liu Chuang. From today on, you will all be Pingcheng's army."
"The army must look like an army. Since you are all from martial arts schools, I can give you three days to adapt and learn the military regulations and orders."
"The government army does not support idlers. If you join the government army, you must abide by the rules of the government army..."
The powerful generals in the square made loud noises like thunder.
The sound of speech reached everyone's ears clearly.
The government army is the guardian of the city, slaying demons, defending the road, and guarding peace.
The social status of the Fujun is also very high. Ordinary Fujun sergeants are also separated from the disputes at the bottom of the rivers and lakes. Gangs in the rivers and lakes no longer dare to mess with the families of the Fujun sergeants.
The government army is integrated from top to bottom, and a general who can be the commander of the government army or even a higher level will naturally stand on the shoulders of this huge system.
With the government army at their back, even top sects have to avoid retreating.
The uniqueness of martial arts schools stems from this.
After Liu Chuang finished speaking, the rumble of horse hooves suddenly sounded outside the military camp.
Dozens of cavalry roared in from the south.
A mysterious flag is hung high, and the leader is wearing silver armor and a red turban. He is strong and majestic.
"The Lord of the City is here!"
After the defenders saw who was coming, they lowered the camp gate and let the cavalry drive straight in.
Dozens of riders ran around the school grounds, and the strong man in red turban jumped up and came to the school platform.
"See City Lord Wei!"
Liu Chuang bowed his hands and bowed.
Everyone was not stupid and knew that this was the person in charge of Pingcheng, the city lord Wei Tao.
So they all saluted.
Just because of the different reactions, the movements when saluting were very irregular.
Wei Tao's coming over was equivalent to formally recognizing the legitimacy of the New Army.
He said loudly: "Everyone, the demons are causing chaos and the country is facing a crisis."
"Now that the Wanping Cult bandits have arrived in ** City, there is not much time left for you to adapt to the government army. You must adapt on your own."
"Behind here are thousands of ordinary people in Pingcheng, including your family, friends, teachers..."
"Pick up the sword and gun in your hand and prepare to fight."
"Although there are many thieves, they are vulnerable to attack. A good man makes great achievements at that time."
........
The Wanping Sect swept in, faster than anyone imagined.
After the roll call of more than a hundred inner disciples of the martial arts hall, all of them moved into the military camp that day.
Then someone distributed weapons and armor.
The weapons are okay, although there are various styles and they don't look neat.
But some of this armor is old armor.
On the second day in the military camp, recruits began to be sent in one after another.
They are all new recruits who have not broken through the blood.
In this forced recruitment, many strong men were sent.
Cao Su was assigned ten strong men, all under thirty years old.
When they saw that although Cao Su was very strong, his face was very tender, he was a young man in his infancy, and they immediately looked down upon him.
"I see."
Cao Su suddenly understood why he had to have a Qi-blood warrior from the martial arts school to be this low-level officer.
Because the Qi-blood warrior can easily suppress these ten seemingly strong recruits.
As talented as they are, they also have the responsibility of supervising the army in order to better manage the new army.
"What do you call me, sir?"
Among the ten strong men, a bearded man walked out and took the initiative to say hello to Cao Su.
Cao Su looked at him with squinted eyes, and then said calmly: "Shouldn't you state your name first?"
The man hit a soft nail and was a little angry.
But I heard that these masters are all Qi and blood warriors and they don’t dare to make mistakes easily.
So he held back his breath and said, "I'm Zhao Xi."
"Okay, I get it."
Cao Su walked up to him and was a little taller than him.
He looked at him condescendingly and said calmly: "From today on, you will be the corps commander. Practice hard and strive to be my position."
Cao Su arranged the candidates for "Wu Commander" very casually.
Generally speaking, a ten-man team can have two captains.
But Cao Su had no intention of appointing a second corps commander. He spotted Zhao Xi and directly promoted him to corps commander.
Zhao Xi didn't know whether he should be happy or not. For a moment, he was stunned on the spot.
It took him a while to realize what he was doing, and he cupped his hands to express his thanks.
Cao Su glanced at the other people.
Several other people somewhat regretted it. If they had known that this guy was so casual, they would have taken the initiative.
"You all know the casualty rate of the government army."
"After joining the government army, train well."
"The war is about to begin, and no one can escape. Knowing one more trick to save one's life is better than anything else."
Cao Su gave a few words of advice.
No one dares to refuse to listen if everyone's lives are at stake.
The training of the government army is also very simple, just ordinary battle formation training and boxing and kicking skills.
The qi and blood stages are all about hard work. If you practice a lot of boxing and kicking, some of them can break through the qi and blood. You don't necessarily have to rely on qi and blood pills or special meat.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But if the resources are average, the efficiency of slowly breaking through is very low.
Therefore, although many soldiers in the government army are physically strong and can carry more than ten kilograms of weight, they have not yet broken through to the realm of Qi and Blood warriors.
Not as good as some disciples in the martial arts school who have been practicing for several months.
.......
Outside the Northern Army camp.
Hundreds of new recruits from the government army were "transported" into the camp under the shining blade.
Cao Xing was also among them.
As an honorable representative of the Cao family who enlisted in the army this year, he was even directly placed in the front row, and was received and rewarded by the veteran generals of the recruitment office.
"The national crisis is facing us, this is a typical example!"
The general hung a red flower on Cao Xing's chest, and Cao Xing walked into the Northern Army camp in glory.
Cao Xing was also a strong man over seven feet tall. The veteran general in charge of recruiting liked him very much and asked him to be specially recruited as a personal soldier.
He also personally introduced to him the structure of the Northern Army camp.
"Currently, there are four schools in the Northern Army camp, two for the old army and two for the new army."
"In the past two days, new troops have entered the camp one after another to participate in training. Logically speaking, you should also participate in new army training."
"But considering that you are a representative figure who took the initiative to join the army, I will include you in the pro-army. You will directly participate in the training of my pro-army. The conditions in all aspects are better than those of their new army."
The old general sat on a tall horse, his whip pointed at the military camp, where many logs were cut and cross-tied objects were cut.
"These are "antlers", specially used to block horses' feet and disrupt cavalry charges."
Cao Xing nodded after reading it, thoughtfully.
"Cao Xing, your martial arts talent is pretty good, but when you join the army, you still need to learn the art of military formation. Otherwise, you will always be just a general who can charge, and you won't be able to do anything important." The veteran general reminded Cao Xing casually.
.
Cao Xing also quite agreed.
He secretly said that he was really lucky to have met this old general and appreciated him.
"Today is the training day for the new army. You should hear the sound of the new army training."
The veteran general led everyone to the new military school field and saw hundreds of new soldiers practicing slashing with knives on the school field.
The shouts were particularly loud.
"Mr. Cheng, why are you here in person?"
After Liu Chuang saw the old general, he rushed over and bowed his hands.
Mr. Cheng waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need to be polite.
"I am responsible for recruiting new troops, and I will personally deliver them to you."
"Liu Chuang, all the commanders of the new army didn't train together?"
Mr. Cheng also knew that the new army was using "reserves" this time, and a large number of inner disciples from the martial arts school were recruited into the army. He glanced at the school grounds, and all he saw were ordinary warriors who had never broken through.
"Yes, all the commanders are trying to improve the military formation."
Liu Chuang said in a deep voice: "This time, some of the inner disciples are still very young and are not familiar with military rules and disciplines and do not understand military orders. If they go to the battlefield, I am worried that they will damage the military formation."
Mr. Cheng sighed and said: "Time is running out, and there is no other way. I have to go ahead."
"As long as they are on the battlefield and see blood, these recruits can grow up quickly."
Liu Chuang smiled and said: "That's true."
"I think most of the inner sect disciples have seen blood, and their combat power is much stronger than that of the Wanping sect's thieves. Three thousand government troops are enough to defeat ten thousand people."
Although the thieves are powerful, in the eyes of many people, they are just a mob.
In addition to issuing imperial preparation orders, the imperial court also conscripted the Lingzhou Tiger Division for a crusade, but the mobilization of the army took a long time.
In the early stage, the front lines such as Pingcheng can only be passive defense.
As long as you can block the early stage and defend the city.
The thieves behind will defeat them without attacking.
