Wrestling is similar to free wrestling in later generations and is very popular in the military.
After a while, Liu Jingren and Xue Li were brought to Su Chen.
The two of them clasped their fists at Li Chengqian and Su Chen: "Your Highness! Marshal!"
Su Chen glanced at Xue Li: "Your name is Xue Li?
Tell me about your specific situation and where are you from?"
Xue Li cupped his fists and replied: "Xue Li, courtesy name Rengui, is from Longmen, Jiangzhou."
"Xue family from Hedong?"
"My ancestor did come from the south ancestral house of the Xue family in Hedong, but his family has fallen into decline long ago, and he is now just a white man!"
Su Chen was secretly surprised: "It's really Xue Rengui, why did he come to the navy?"
Historically, Xue Rengui was considered a late bloomer. He did not join the army until Li Er personally conquered Goryeo. He was already over thirty at that time!
Then he showed great prowess on the battlefield of Goryeo and was spotted by Li Er.
The Xue Rengui in front of me looks like a young man in his twenties.
But now that Goryeo has been destroyed, history has long been distorted, and it is normal for Xue Rengui to surrender to the army in advance.
Anyway, I found another treasure!
"Are you two vying for the position of Marine Corps Captain?"
The two looked at each other, and Liu Jingren replied: "Come back to the commander, yes! This is allowed by the commander!"
Liu Rengui covered his head and said to Su Chen: "Commander, there are too many people who meet the requirements of Marine Captain, and they are all generals' disciples. No one is convinced by anyone, so I allowed them to compete in private."
In the army, the strong are respected. Now everyone has little military exploits, and they are not convinced by each other.
Liu Rengui's simple and crude method is actually very effective.
Su Chen looked at the two of them: "I don't mean to blame you!"
"In this way, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and I will bear witness to you. You two will compete, and the loser will be the captain!"
The two clapped their hands happily: "Okay! That's it... hmm?"
Both of them stretched their legs and arms, but stopped midway and looked at Su Chen together!
Li Chengqian, Liu Rengui, and others also looked at Su Chen at the same time:
The loser is the captain?
The commander-in-chief made a mistake just now!
"Why did you stop? Keep going!"
Liu Jingren shook his hand: "No, Marshal, you just said loser..."
"You heard it right, the loser is the captain!"
"ah!"
Xue Li and Liu Jingren were immediately discouraged!
"This is nothing compared to nothing!"
Others also looked at Su Chen in confusion.
Su Chen stood up and looked at Xue Li and Liu Jingren: "Two unambitious people, is a Marine squad leader worth fighting over like this?"
Scanning the officers present again, Su Chen said loudly: "General Liu reported to me yesterday that we, the Royal Navy of the Tang Dynasty, have more than 10,000 people, but we can't find a few outstanding captain candidates."
"There are actually two main gunboats without formal captains, let alone those frigates. Most of the captains are temporary."
"I still didn't understand it at the time. Apparently there are more than 400 casual officers in our Royal Navy, and there are hundreds of seventh-grade Yihu captains and above!"
"With regard to the ratio of the number of officers, what he has created is more terrifying than His Majesty's Qianniu Guards, but he can't find a few qualified captains!"
"Now I understand that he is so eager to compete for a position like Captain of the Marine Corps!"
"Isn't the captain of a main gunboat no better than a squad leader of a Marine Corps?"
Seeing Su Chen suddenly getting angry, everyone lowered their heads and dared not speak!
"Liu Jingren!"
"exist!"
"What's your martial arts level?"
"To Colonel Guo!"
Su Chen went up to him and kicked him in the butt: "You're a fucking seventh-level martial artist, and you're going to compete with someone for the captaincy of a 300-man team. Do you still have any fucking face?"
"Commander, please spare your life! Commander, stop kicking!"
Liu Jingren squatted on the ground and held his head, and said aggrievedly: "Commander, as you said, we have just a few people in the navy, and we have forced hundreds of seventh-grade military attachés. These wolves have more meat than meat, and they are reduced to fighting for a small captain.
There’s really nothing we can do about it!”
"Are you still reasonable?"
Liu Jingren crawled and hid behind Li Chengqian: "Commander, it's not that I don't want the captain, but I don't have the ability to command a warship!"
"The younger one has learned some military tactics and battle formations, and is considered proficient in bows and horses, but it's useless for commanding warships, so that's why I can't snatch the Marine Captain."
Su Chen glared at the group of generals and disciples around him: "Do you all have the same reason?"
Everyone lowered their heads and dared not speak!
"A bunch of people who don't know how to make progress. Your elders came to my house to praise you for your bravery and fighting skills. I shouldn't believe them! They are leaving all the problems in the family to me!"
"Commander! You can't say that. We are indeed elite disciples of various schools, but..."
Does anyone dare to talk back?
Su Chen glanced at the crowd: "Qin Ying, get out of here!"
Knowing that he was in trouble, Qin Ying just wanted to hide in the crowd, but Yuchi Baolin next to him pushed him out.
"Commander, spare your life, I know I was wrong!"
"You know it's wrong?
You know shit!"
"Are you also a team leader?"
Qin Ying nodded.
"Master Yi Guo, at your age, is already famous all over the world. How dare you say that you are an elite disciple even if you are a team leader with 300 people?"
"What did you want to say just now?"
"Just what?"
"I just haven't seen a gunboat?
Just never seen a naval battle?"
"Don't you know how to learn if you haven't seen it before?
Don’t you know how to practice?”
"You were born knowing how to ride a horse and shoot arrows?
You just learned it bit by bit and practiced it!"
Su Chen pointed at a group of general disciples: "Huh! You are the ones who are indolent, indolent, and unwilling to make progress!"
"Navy! Navy! The battle is about the strength of the ship and the power of the artillery! What is needed is the spirit and courage to explore the unknown! What is needed is the skill and courage to fight against strong winds and waves!"
"Anyone who cannot meet these requirements is not a qualified navy!"
"Do you think you are a qualified navy?"
Everyone continued to bow their heads and say nothing!
"Master Sun Ren! Cheng Wuting!"
"The end is here!"
"The Marine Corps is under your command?"
Master Sun Ren returned and said, "Yes! General Mo and General Cheng each lead three thousand men!"
"Three generals in the Navy and two leading the Marine Corps, don't you think that's too much?"
The two of them were stunned, not knowing how to answer.
"You two can discuss it and one person can lead the Marine Corps!"
Master Sun Ren said, "Commander, after all, there are six thousand marines, accounting for most of the navy's soldiers, and according to the court's practice..."
Su Chen interrupted him directly and said: "The practices of the Sixteenth Guards do not apply to our navy!"
"If you think my decision is unreasonable, you can leave by yourself. I will ask His Majesty for two generals!"
Su Chen frowned again and said: "The generals of the other sixteen guards are all third-grade, and the lieutenants and generals of the five palaces are all fourth-grade."
