Chapter 133: Selection of Non-commissioned Officers
Chapter 133: Sergeant Selection
"What Marquis Zhongxin said is true. There is not much difference in military strength between the two armies. With the addition of these people from the sect, our army was immediately defeated." A sinister light flashed across Liu Xiu's eyes: "I will return to the camp immediately.
Write a letter to the emperor and ask him to transfer some masters from the 100,000-strong army of the conquering sect to the northwest. This time the sect participated in the war between the imperial court and Dihuang. If I find out that they are from the Central Plains
The Taoist sect and the demonic sect will definitely gather a large army to destroy their orthodoxy!"
"Well, what the prince said is true. During this period, I will use the terrain to strengthen the defense. The mountain is steep, which is not conducive to cavalry charge. Xie Daoyun is good at the art of war, so he should not be so unwise. Now, I will trouble the prince to come from the court.
, call in some experts who can deal with the power of the ten dragons. We can launch a counterattack immediately!"
Marquis Zhongxin nodded and said.
The master of the power of ten dragons, who can shake the mountains and shake the mountains, is already a strong person in the realm of rebirth. Looking at the great Zhou Dynasty, there are not too many such people. Di Huang this time, nearly twenty appeared at one time, so many
The master is so extraordinary!
The two exchanged pleasantries in the tent, and the prince immediately stood up and left.
Returning to the barracks, Prince Liu Xiu spread out the rice paper and began to write the memorial. Halfway through the memorial, he suddenly stopped.
"Muyi!"
"My subordinate is here!"
Behind the prince, a burly guard wearing a white robe responded.
"Your whole body is full of royal martial arts, and now that you have entered the spirit realm, you have the power of three dragons. Logically speaking, you are enough to be the general of Anguo. But since you have become my bodyguard, you cannot be awarded an official title.
I can't help you anymore."
Liu Xiudao.
"It is an honor for me to serve the prince." The guard named Mu Yi stood tall and said expressionlessly.
"Now, I will give you a chance to make a name for yourself. - Captain Cao Xu died in battle, and the post of Captain became vacant. Tomorrow, I will give you an order. You go and join the Captain's camp where Cao Xu is. Can you seize it?
The position of Captain depends on your ability. However, no matter what, the second son of Marquis Sifang must not be allowed to take the position of Captain!"
"Yes, Prince!" Mu Yi finally had an expression on his face. In the tent, when other guards glanced at him, a trace of envy flashed in their eyes.
As a guard of the royal family, no matter how high your martial arts skills are, you are destined to have no identity. Opportunities like this to become famous are really rare!
"You go now. The royal guard is more than enough to serve as the captain. Now, you go to the captain's camp to serve as the captain. Tomorrow, you will compete for the position of captain. - Go!"
"I obey my orders!"
Mu Yi cupped his hands and strode out of the tent. The moment he stepped out of the tent, there was an astonishing light in his eyes. It was like a piece of wood that was rejuvenated.
Behind him, a strange light flashed in the eyes of Prince Liu Xiu.
"This Fang Yun does have some talents. If he hadn't impeached Yang Hong, maybe I would have tried to recruit him. But now, because of his reasons, Yang Hong has temporarily canceled the canonization of Wuhou, and the two of them are already at odds.
There is no room for it. It is expedient, so I can only choose Yang Hong over him. What a pity..."
Prince Liu Xiu sighed in his heart. Fang Yun was able to defeat Yang Hong in the military deduction, and now in Dihuang in the northwest, he can fight with Xie Daoyun in commanding and controlling troops. His talents no longer need to be proven. If given
In ten years, he will definitely become a unique general in the Zhou Dynasty. As the prince, it is his duty to recruit as many talents as possible. But when Fang Yun met Yang Hong, it was different.
Fang Yun still needs a few years to grow up, but Yang Hong can now take charge of his own role! Since the two are incompatible, who should be taken and whom should be discarded, as long as a discerning person can tell at a glance.
…
On the second day, dawn breaks in the east.
"By the order of the loyal and trustworthy Marquis, the officers and men of the entire army will decide on the positions of new commanders, commanders, centurions, captains of thousands, captains, captains, and generals based on military merit and strength! If no one has enough military merit, the position will be decided based on strength.
Belongs to the position!”
An orderly soldier, with the leader holding an order flag, appeared in the captain's camp where Cao Xu was located and announced an order. As soon as the order came out, the entire captain's camp was in excitement.
The battlefield has always been the best and fastest place to win fame. In the past three days, there have been continuous battles, and the soldiers have suffered a lot of losses. But the low-level non-commissioned officers have also suffered a lot.
"Zhou Xin, Chu Kuang, now your opportunity has come. With your strength, you can compete for the captain of thousands. It's a pity that you are not strong enough. Otherwise, you can take this opportunity to rise to the rank of captain!"
Fang Yun said. Fang Yun had already expected this order from Marquis Zhongxin. Yesterday, those elite masters suddenly launched an attack. The target was directed at the captains, captains, and generals of Great Zhou. With their terrifying strength, these
The captains, captains, and generals were almost powerless to resist. The low-level non-commissioned officers suffered heavy losses. It is completely reasonable to re-elect non-commissioned officers today.
"Well, we will try our best to fight for it!"
Zhou Xin and Chu Kuang nodded. This time was an opportunity for them to be promoted in the army, and it was also an opportunity for Fang Yun to expand his strength. Fang Yun's intention was naturally not to let them compete for the centurions and thousands of men in his own name.
Instead of being the captain, they competed for the centurions and thousand-centurions of other captain camps.
"Meng Qing, Liu Shui, He Feng, do you know what to do?"
Fang Yun turned his eyes and looked at these three people. In the three consecutive days of fighting, the three of them also suffered injuries of varying severity, but as long as they survived, it was a big opportunity.
"Thank you for the promotion, sir, we know what to do!"
In the reserve camp, these three people were all at the rank of captains. But as soon as they were transferred to the army, they were immediately demoted one level and became captains of thousands. Naturally, the three of them were a little unwilling to accept it, but there was nothing they could do about it.
.Nowadays, there are a large number of vacancies for captains and captains in the army. This is naturally an opportunity for them.
However, if Fang Yun does not agree to let them go out and participate in the competition, no matter how willing and powerful the three are, it will be useless. Therefore, the three of them are grateful to Fang Yun.
Hooves!
There was a sound of horse hoofbeats, and on the path leading to the top of the mountain, a general wearing black golden armor came flying over with several lieutenants. After reaching the foot of the mountain, he immediately reined in his horse.
"Listen up! The selection of Centurions and Thousand Commanders at all levels will be carried out in their respective camps. I will send people there to supervise. As for Cao Xu's death in battle and the vacancy of the Captain's post, I will personally preside over it. The names you hear below
Yes, come out immediately..."
The Wu Jinjia general took out a name book and read from it: "Colonel Fang Yun, Colonel Yang Ye, Colonel Liu Ming, guard Zhao Xiong."
Fang Yun was slightly surprised when he heard the name of the guard Zhao Xiong. This Zhao Xiong was Cao Xu's guard and should have at least the power of a dragon. Yesterday, he luckily escaped with his life.
"Cao Xu died in battle, and even his bodyguards were able to participate in the battle for the captaincy... And this Mu Yi, why do I have no impression at all!"
Fang Yun thought in his heart.
"Everyone whose name was just read, come here!"
General Wu Jinjia said loudly. As soon as his voice fell, Fang Yun and others immediately ran out from their respective camps.
The captain's camp of the regular army usually has seven to ten captain's camps. Yesterday, the warrior with the power of six dragons used his strength and killed a large number of captains, leaving only a handful of them.
"You have been together for a while. You should know each other's strength. If you feel that there is no hope of competing for the position of captain, just quit. This is an army, not a training ground. Just keep everything simple."
A man with a thin body but piercing eyes turned his head to glance at Fang Yun, then suddenly turned back and cupped his hands: "Sir, I will quit automatically."
Fang Yun knew this captain, his name was Yang Ye, and he was a veteran in the army.
"Hmm? Then go ahead."
"Captain Fang, with your strength, you can become a captain a long time ago. I hope you succeed, so that brothers will have another way of life!"
When returning to the military camp, Yang Ye deliberately stopped next to Fang Yun for a while, and then passed him by.
In the past few days, he followed Fang Yun's captain's camp and handed over the troops to Fang Yun's command, which reduced a lot of military losses. He was most aware of Fang Yun's ability to command troops and his martial arts cultivation.
"The captain with the power of three dragons!..., even if you go up there, you can't compete with him!"
Yang Ye thought in his heart and returned to the camp.
"Well, there are only three people left. - Fang Yun, you have only been in the regular army for a short time. According to your military exploits, you are not enough to be promoted to captain. However, yesterday you killed one of the Six Dragons.
A powerful warrior, Zhongxin Hou Youling, this warrior with the power of six dragons is calculated according to the general level. In other words, you killed a general. In this way, plus your achievements in the previous few days, you will be promoted to captain this time.
The qualifications and military exploits are enough." General Wu Jinjia opened the book in his hand and glanced at Fang Yundao.
Fang Yun looked calm. He knew this information yesterday. A warrior with the power of six dragons should have been calculated as a third-class meritorious service. However, that person should be dressed as an ordinary soldier. According to military regulations, he is an officer.
Downgraded one level. From the third-class merit of a general to the fourth-class merit of a general. Calculating carefully, it was just enough for Fang Yun to participate in the competition for captain.
"Liu Ming, you are Cao Xu's bodyguard, and you have the strength of Qi level. In addition, you have served in the army with the captain for many years, so it is enough to be promoted to the captain..."
"Mu Yi..." General Wu Jinjia turned to the next page, hesitated for a moment, and then mumbled a few words: "You are the prince's guard, which is enough..."
"Huh?" Fang Yun's eyes were like lightning, and he glanced at Mu Yi instantly: "It turns out he is the prince's man!"
Fang Yun didn't believe that all of this was accidental. The group of experts who suddenly appeared yesterday, the eight dragons, nine dragons, and ten dragons, wherever these people appeared, not to mention the captains and generals, they all lost.
Very big. If the prince really just wanted to promote this subordinate, he should have sent him to participate in the selection of generals, not this so-called captain.
Fang Yun turned his head and immediately thought clearly about the cause and effect.
"This prince doesn't want me to become big in the army!..."
