Chapter 5 Spring Dawn (Part 4)

Chapter 5 Spring Dawn (Part 4)

In three days, he trained fifty new and old soldiers to be able to command them, and then took them to maintain the order of recruitment at the campus. If anything went wrong, military law would be called upon! After a lot of effort, Wang Xun figured out what he wanted to do.

! What a pity, the total number of maids and servants in the Wang family is only this number. It all depends on Aunt Yun's command and control. Every time Wang Xun intervenes, the outcome will definitely be a mess, and nothing can be done in the end.

With no choice but to find a way to pass the task to Zhao and Li, the two team vice-presidents, the two team vice-presidents were also very worried. Zhao Huaixu spread his hands and told Wang Xun frankly that before he became the team deputy, he had always given

Captain Zhou is a private soldier. He can learn from Captain Zhou and give Wang Xun advice. If Wang Xun wants to force the burden on him, he will definitely break the pot.

Li Yuanqin was even more direct, pointing his fingers at Wang Xun to show him his past resume. He was a martial arts master, and because of his decent skills, he was privately hired by Feng Changqing to serve as a gun and stick instructor for the Anxi Army. He had never led the army alone.

The reason why Bing was able to advise Wang Xun before was partly because he had been in the army for so many years. Although he had never eaten venison, he had always seen how deer run. The other half of the reason was that Wang Xun was open-minded and eager to learn.

Let yourself take random orders.

"Then what should I do!" Wang Xun screamed loudly when he saw the two captains starting to drop their picks.

"It's okay!" Zhao Huaixu squeezed his eyes and comforted in a low voice, "Aren't there supplementary clauses under the military regulations? Even if you mess up, considering it as a first offense, it will only be a slap with a military stick at most. Still.

It can be divided into several times to fight..."

"Bah!" Wang Xun poured it over with a washbasin, drenching Deputy Zhao until he was soaked in water. "The three of us are like grasshoppers on a rope. I'll hit you with a military stick, but you two can't even think about running away. When the time comes,

I just said that you two relied on your elders and interfered..."

Even so, the three of them still made serious plans and tried their best to get familiar with and organize the team as quickly as possible. Fortunately, the contest between Wang Xun and Qi Heng was very sensational. The recruits of the second team of the seventh brigade

He felt that Captain Zheng was a face to the new recruits, so he was very cooperative with his command. The veterans of the Second Team of the 7th Brigade also felt that their team leader had some real abilities, and was not a second-generation ancestor who relied entirely on the shadow of his family.

He doesn't deliberately cause trouble for him. In addition, Wang Xun himself is generous and never stingy with money. He doesn't bother to take advantage of his subordinates. The rewards obtained during training are always distributed fairly to everyone. After several rounds,

After a lot of hard work, the appearance of the second team of the New Seventh Brigade was indeed second to none among all the teams that were reorganized.

Every morning, with a team of fifty people running around the White Horse Castle in neat steps, Wang Xun felt a surge of pride in his chest soaring into the sky. It seemed that he was not leading fifty people, but five hundred or five thousand.

, or even 50,000 people. Horses trampled Loulan, swords chopped Baekje, majestic and murderous. If I continue to fantasize, this path of joining the army is really the right choice. However, I suffered a lot in training and sparring, and even embarrassed myself in public.

At that time, he felt that it was better for him to just continue to eat at home and wait for death than to be like a dwarf performing on the streets and being laughed at loudly by so many people. In this way, between "Swearing to Break Loulan" and "It's Better to Go Back"

Wandering between these emotions, three days passed. Early on the fourth day, the Second Team of the Seventh Brigade of the New Barracks received the order, brought all kinds of equipment, and went straight to the main campus in the center of White Horse Fort.

The reorganization of the Feilong Guards and the selection of "talented and brave" sons from good families from public competitions among the people to join the army were personally proposed by His Majesty the Emperor and approved by the civil and military officials in the court. Therefore, many well-informed families in the capital,

They all paid great attention to it. You must know that the Tang Dynasty was founded by military force, and there is a saying that there are no scholars in Lingyan Pavilion. Although His Majesty the Emperor has focused on civil affairs in recent years and has no intention of expanding the territory, from Liaodong to Anxi, the great

The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty still fought until the barbarians everywhere changed their colors when they heard the sound of horns and drums. Moreover, the promotion path of military officers was much fairer and more convenient than that of civil servants. In the distance, there was Xue Rengui, a handsome man in white robes, and later there were Ge Shuhan, Gao Xianzhi, Guo Ziyi, and Feng Chang.

No matter which one of the four great commanders and deputy governors of the Qing Dynasty, their fame was based on their outstanding military achievements, not their family bloodline.

The Feilong imperial guards are the emperor's personal soldiers. Although they are not as valued as the inner palace guards, they are promoted very quickly. They usually only need to put out fires and clear the drainage ditches in the capital, and they can be awarded numerous honors. If you are lucky, you will be chosen by the emperor.

It is not impossible for His Majesty to make an exception and be promoted to a major general of the First Guard. (Note 1)

The combination of the above factors caused the gate of White Horse Castle to be packed this morning. Many wealthy people have sons and nephews who have neither the chance to inherit their father's title nor the perseverance to study hard day and night to gain fame.

Hope was weighing on the chance to win today. Seeing that the sun had already risen above the treetops, but the school gate was still not open, some people were impatient and shouted loudly, "Open the door, open the door, is there an officer's quota?"

It’s been decided internally. Once it’s been decided, don’t deceive everyone again!”

"It's weird if you don't open the door so late. There's nothing wrong with it!" Some people, fearing that the world would be in chaos, took the opportunity to loudly agitate.

"Your Majesty personally promised to grant official positions based on your martial arts skills!" "No matter how wise your Majesty is, you can't stand up to the treacherous ministers in the court!" In the blink of an eye, the restlessness became louder and louder, and I wished that the school gate would be knocked down to the ground.

"Come forward, no matter who it is, fight directly!" Wang Xun led the guards of his team to arrive at the scene, and ordered his brothers according to the previously planned routine.

"No!" The fifty Feilong Imperial Guards immediately raised their eyebrow-length sticks and without explanation, they started beating along the road at the entrance of the school ground. While beating, they cursed loudly: "Get out of the way, get out of the way, you want to rebel.

Ah, you guys are too anxious to eat hot tofu. If you don’t want to rebel, just stand in line on the roadside!"

As the saying goes, "Evil people will find their way to evil." The people who were noisy at the gate were beaten with bruises and swollen faces, but they immediately calmed down. Holding the bruises on their heads, they stepped aside and waited for the officer honestly.

command.

"Pull the snagging rope!" Seeing that the move was successful, Wang Xun became more confident. He looked around and ordered with a frown.

The guards agreed loudly again, and they were more tidy than usual. They tied the left and right doorposts of the school gate with red snagging ropes, and pulled them outward along the road. They pulled three lines at the top, middle and bottom on each side.

Five or six steps away, they used white wax poles as pillars to fix them, and stretched them from the gate to more than twenty feet away. Then they tidied up again. Then ten guards stood on each side, waved the sticks, and ordered

The good family members who came to take the exam lined up and filed in along the passage pulled out by the rope.

After entering the gate of the school grounds, two team vice-deputies were responsible for registering, verifying identities, and issuing badges based on the examination items of the good boys. Then, the other three team captains under Wang Xun each led several guards, and issued badges according to the badges.

Mark, and lead the candidates to the designated area one after another. During the march, he refused to give him even a smile. If anyone dared to go beyond half a step, he would immediately hit him with a stick, beating the other person repeatedly and begging for mercy.

Although this method was a bit rough, the results were not as good as usual. After being beaten, the good family members who came to take the exam immediately understood that the inside of the military camp was different from the outside. They put away all their arrogance and carefully followed the orders.

Act. But the Feilong guards of the second team of the New Seventh Brigade, because they beat the opponent to the point of running away, a sense of pride and belonging arose in their hearts. They felt that they were superior to others, even though a few days ago, they were also beaten.

The veterans had a miserable time dealing with it.

After bringing the good boys to the assessment site, the responsibilities of the Flying Dragon Guards of the Second Team of the Seventh Brigade of the New Barracks came to an end. Another team of guards accepted the candidates. They re-verified their identities based on the descriptions on the roster and began to arrange the competition.

After working frantically for an hour and a half, the flow of people who came to apply gradually thinned out. Inside the campus, the cheers became louder and louder. Apparently, among the good family members who came to apply, some of them were indeed very talented.

This was an eye-opener for both the examiner and the applicants. Wang Xun was thinking about Yu Wenzhi, so he told Zhao Huaixu a few words and asked him to guard the door for him for the time being. He turned around, wiped his sweat, and strode inside.

go.

After walking only a dozen steps, I saw Ma Fang running over from a distance. Under the sunlight, his face was red, and the beads of sweat on his forehead were clearly visible. When he saw Wang Xun, he immediately bent down, panting and shouting loudly.

: "Erlang, hurry up and see, boy Yuwen has met his opponent!"

"It's okay!" Wang Xun smiled and responded smoothly. "His boxing and kicking skills are very weak. He can't even beat me, and..."

"It's not fists and kicks!" Ma Fang gasped and waved his hands, "It's bows and arrows. I really met a master today. Compared with others, Yuwen boy is more than a little behind!"

"There is such a thing!" Wang Xun couldn't help being slightly startled. Yu Wenzhi had been with him since childhood, and he knew very well what level he was at. Because of his personality, this person could not endure hardship, so his skills in boxing and feet were very deep.

Generally. Otherwise, he would not have planned to bully Li Bai some time ago, but was beaten up by the opponent. But in terms of archery, Yu Wenzhi is simply a genius. It is an exaggeration to say that a hundred steps can pierce a Yang. Within a hundred steps, there are ten arrows.

It is not difficult for more than eight arrows to hit the target.

"Hurry up and go and see. There are many people who know you, see if you can help Zida cheat. Otherwise, he will definitely lose!" Without allowing Wang Xun to think about it, Ma Fang grabbed his arm and said, "Hurry up, hurry up, if you are one step later, you will lose."

Not to mention the first place, Zida may not even be among the top three!"

Note 1: Registration of honors is a method of recording merit during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Basically, after three rounds of registration, the official will be promoted one level.
