At night, the lights are still bright in the commander's tent. Guo Song and the seven lieutenants will discuss today's riding and shooting competition. The competition has all ended. The results are beyond Guo Song's expectation. They are quite good. Only the generals with more than 27 points
There were seventeen people, including two with thirty points and three with twenty-nine points. This caused a little trouble. The two generals with thirty points undisputedly won the two general positions.
But three people had to compete for the third spot, and everyone was talking about it and had different opinions.
"Nothing to dispute!"
Liang Wu knocked on the table with his knuckles and said: "Xiao Lingfeng must be more skilled. After all, he had an arrow that hit the front door, and the other two people didn't hit the front door. We can't look at the score, but also the specific archery skills."
Down."
This brigade commander named Xiao Lingfeng was a subordinate of Liang Wu. Of course he made no secret of his partiality and wanted to grab the third spot.
Yao Jin shook his head, "The rules are the rules. Since the rules require scores to be used to determine the ranking, then compare the scores. Although Xiao Lingfeng shot an arrow in front of his face, his third arrow also hit his left shoulder. The other two did not have such big ups and downs. If it is true,
If you can't tell the difference, let the three of them compete again tomorrow morning."
At this time, Guo Song coughed lightly, and the tent immediately became quiet. Guo Song smiled slightly and said: "The original intention of the competition is to discover and select outstanding talents. Now that outstanding talents have been discovered, we must promote them in time. We can't just
The other two outstanding candidates will be eliminated with three quotas. The quota can be increased! We have nearly 20,000 troops, and there is nothing wrong with adding two more generals. This time the imperial court gave us 2,000 large yellow crossbows in the military resources.
, there are also a thousand sets of Modao Army equipment, so I considered establishing a heavy crossbow battalion and a heavy armored infantry battalion, so that the quota of five generals would be available. In addition, generals who have scored more than 27 points must register.
Priority will be given to promotion under certain conditions.”
It was very quiet in the big tent. Guo Song took two steps with his hands behind his back and said: "In the future, such a riding and archery competition will be held once a year. It will become the practice of the Ganzhou Army. Twenty-seven points will be divided into qualified lines. Those who score more than twenty-seven points will be qualified."
Everyone has the opportunity to be promoted, and even if they cannot be promoted temporarily, they must be rewarded."
.........
All the generals dispersed, but Guo Song kept behind him Pan Liao, the commander-in-chief, and Chang Wen, the military commander of the Bing Cao, Zuo. Guo Song asked them to sit down and said with a smile, "Thank you for keeping them here so late."
Pan Liao said quickly: "We are nothing, the governor is the hard worker. It has not stopped from morning to now."
"I have no choice but to try my best to make preliminary preparations before the Shatuo people invade in large numbers. There are too many things to do and time does not wait for us!"
Zuo Changwen bowed and said: "We are all willing to share the worries of the Governor. Whatever the Governor needs us to do, just ask us, and we will do our best to get it done."
Guo Song nodded, "When we were discussing just now, I mentioned the heavy crossbow battalion and the heavy armored infantry battalion. Starting tomorrow, we will start to form these two new services. The heavy crossbow battalion has 2,000 people, and the heavy armored infantry battalion also has 2,000 people.
, I have already selected the generals and deputy generals. The key is the soldiers. I know that the Bingcao Division has detailed records of all soldiers. I ask you to select suitable soldiers for me within two days. The task is very heavy. Just rely on the Bingcao Division.
The Secretary may not be able to make it in time, all the officials from the six Cao Cao are participating together, Pan Changshi, you will take the lead in this matter, select 3,000 soldiers for me within two days."
Pan Liao hurriedly said: "I understand this humble position!"
After all, Zuo Changwen was more professional. He asked: "I wonder what conditions the governor needs?"
Guo Song pondered for a moment and said: "The Big Yellow Crossbow is a seven-stone heavy crossbow. It requires two soldiers to operate it. The condition is strong strength. I remember that every soldier has a record of lifting a stone lock. At least he can lift a hundred kilograms of stone locks above his head. This is a heavy crossbow.
Conditions of Soldiers.
Then let’s talk about heavy armored infantry. Heavy armored infantry is also called Mo Dao Shou. The first requirement is height and long hands. The height requirement is over six feet two. If I remember correctly, this is also the condition for the Anxi Army to select heavy armored infantry. The weight lifting requirement is slightly
A little lower, you can lift a stone lock of more than 80 kilograms. If you select a thousand people and the other thousand people are to assist, there is no need for any special conditions."
Pan Liao quickly wrote down the conditions proposed by Guo Song, nodded and said: "We have written it down, and I will hand over the list to the governor in the morning the day after tomorrow!"
Pan Liao and Zuo Changwen said goodbye and hurried away.
Guo Song took a few steps with his hands behind his back, feeling a little regretful. In fact, he should have started to form these two armies a long time ago. He wasted four days in vain. He only discovered the rhubarb when he looked at the storage material report this morning.
Crossbow and heavy armor Modao suit, he had never thought of forming a Modao army before.
At this time, Kang Bao appeared at the door of the commander's tent, "Is the governor looking for me?"
Guo Song nodded and smiled: "Come in!"
Kang Bao walked in and saluted, and Guo Song asked with a smile: "How did the chief instructor do?"
Kang Bao smiled bitterly and said: "It's not bad!"
Guo Song smiled and said, "It seems that he is not very satisfied."
"Captain, I heard that a military camp has been set up, why don't you let the humble staff go back?"
Guo Song said with a smile: "The current personal barracks are just in name. They are actually internal affairs camps, specializing in searching for enemy spies."
"I am willing to join the internal affairs camp even if I hold a humble position. Being a soldier is enough!"
"I'm not here to ask you to join the internal affairs camp, but to give you a new position."
Although Kang Bao worked hard as the chief instructor, he still hoped to follow his master in his heart. However, he would never disobey Guo Song's arrangements. He bowed and said: "Please give me the command, Commander!"
"I want you to be the commander of the heavy armored infantry battalion, treated as a general, in charge of a thousand Modao troops and a thousand coordinated troops!"
The Modao Army was the most elite army of the Tang Dynasty and was a powerful weapon against the cavalry. During the Anshi Rebellion, it was the Five Thousand Modao Army from Anxi who came from thousands of miles away to turn the tide and stabilize the country of the Tang Dynasty.
However, the cost of building a Mo Dao army is also extremely expensive. A set of heavy armor and a Mo Dao will cost at least hundreds of dollars. It was only during the prosperous period of the Kaiyuan Dynasty that the Tang Dynasty had the financial resources to build a five thousand Mo Dao army.
Sword Army.
After the Anshi Rebellion, the Tang Dynasty was no longer able to build the Modao Army, and the Anxi Modao Army was also disbanded. Five thousand sets of heavy armor and Modao were scattered among the people, or were collected in the weapons inspection warehouse. The heavy armor and Modao have been well preserved so far.
There were only more than two thousand sets of knives left, one thousand sets were given to the Longyouhe Huang Army, and the other thousand sets were given to the Ganzhou Army.
Of course Guo Song hoped that this elite army would be led by his confidants. He immediately thought of Kang Bao. Kang Bao was undoubtedly the most suitable candidate. Kang Bao was not only loyal to him, but also had excellent conditions. He was two meters tall.
, was extremely powerful and once commanded an army of 100,000 men.
Kang Bao has always been unable to be appointed by Guo Song as Lang General or Zhonglang General because of his lack of qualifications. But for the special military branch of Modao Army, qualifications have been put aside and physical condition is the first priority. With this opportunity, Guo Song
Song finally got Kang Baoan involved.
Kang Bao saw the expectant look in his lord's eyes, and he said without hesitation: "I am willing to share my worries with my lord!"
Guo Song smiled and nodded, "Come over tomorrow afternoon and I will teach you a set of Modao sword techniques and master it proficiently."
After a pause, Guo Song continued: "In addition, tomorrow morning you go to the Governor's Office to find Pan Changshi. They will start selecting Thousand Modao soldiers tomorrow. If you have suitable soldiers, you can also recommend them to Pan Changshi."
"I humbly obey orders!"
The actual strength of the Mo Dao Army [Biquge www.biquger.info] should be two thousand. In addition to one thousand heavy armored infantry, there should be one thousand coordinated soldiers. The soldiers alone cannot wear dozens of kilograms of weight.
To wear armor, there must be someone beside you to help.
...........
Early the next morning, Yao Jin hurried to find his coach. Yang Jun, who was standing at the door of the tent, waved to him and pointed to the tent.
Yao Jin took a look and saw a tall and mighty heavy-armored general standing in the center of the tent, holding a long sword in his hand. It was their coach Guo Song.
Yao Jin asked in a low voice: "What is the governor doing?"
Yang Jun whispered: "The governor seems to be comprehending a set of sword skills."
Yao Jin suddenly realized that the governor was creating a set of Modao sword techniques, so he had to wait patiently at the door of the tent.
Guo Song wore forty kilograms of iron armor, which covered him tightly from head to toe, leaving only a slit for his eyes. He held a ten-foot-five-foot-long Mo Dao, which weighed about forty kilograms.
.
Although the weapons supervisor gave him a thousand sets of heavy armor equipment, they did not give him the corresponding Mo Dao sword skills. Guo Song could only create a set of simple and practical sword techniques on his own.
Mo Dao Army's battle is a collective battle, pushing forward like a wall, using collective strength to defeat the enemy. This requires that the sword skills of all soldiers must be uniform. If each soldier uses different tricks, there will be chaos, and it is very likely that
In order to avoid hurting one's own people, training is one aspect, and the number of moves in Mo Dao Dao Technique is small enough, which can also greatly reduce the probability of chaotic situations.
Guo Song stood still for half an hour, then suddenly shouted, "Come on!"
Mo Dao slashed diagonally from top to bottom. The force of the knife was extremely powerful and powerful. He shouted again: "Down!"
He stepped out with his right leg in a bow stance, and slashed the Mo Dao horizontally, about a foot and a half from the ground. This was the leg of the war horse. He then retracted his legs, opened his bow to the left and right, and struck out with one knife each.
In fact, it is four moves, in order, up, down, right, left, done in one go.
Yao Jin was so frightened by the sharp sword force that he couldn't help but applaud.
Guo Song turned around and saw that it was Yao Jin, so he put down his sword and asked, "What's the matter with General Yao?"
Yao Jin entered the tent and bowed and said: "To the Governor, there is news from Zhang Yun!"
