My brother is the most handsome man in the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 429 Ying Chengyu: Little Taotie, I won’t come tomorrow, will you come?

Ying Chengyu specifically asked a group of veterans to enter the venue under the witness of the Taotie Army, naturally to establish their prestige.

In the military, seniority and power are also discussed, but what is most talked about is strength.

Most of the veterans who showed their superb riding skills and cooperative combat capabilities, making the Taotie Army mistakenly think they were Iron Eagle Swordsmen, were successfully incorporated into the Taotie Army as generals.

The few who are not included are due to physical disabilities.

This time the lone army went deep into the desert to fight in the hinterland of the Xiongnu. The mobility requirements were much higher than those in the battle against Zhao.There are really no reinforcements, and there are enemies everywhere, and the requirements for mobility and combat effectiveness are higher than before.

One or two fingers and toes are missing, the nose is missing, the ears are missing, and half of the face is ruined. Such disabilities do not have a serious impact on the battle. Ying Chengyu can be incorporated into the army.

But those like Wang Wu who are missing an arm or even two legs, which seriously affects their ability to gallop and fight on horseback, cannot be incorporated into the army.

The implementation standards are as Ying Chengxuan said just now. You cannot free your hands to shoot bows and arrows while riding a horse, so you must stay behind.

Including veteran Wang Yan, there were a total of 530 veterans, of which 230 were left behind.

War is cruel, and you are lucky to survive intact.

The total number of the Taotie Army and the veterans once again exceeded [-], reaching a small peak of less than a thousand.

Ying Chengyu canceled the military system originally assigned to the Taotie Army by Meng Tian and reorganized it.

Five people form a team, with a team leader.

Ten people make one Shi, and set Shi Long.

A hundred people are one hundred, and a hundred leaders are called centurions.

There are 500 people in a battalion, and there is a battalion commander, also called a five-centurion commander.

Ten thousand people form an army, and there is a partial general, also called a captain of ten thousand men.

According to the military system of the Qin Army, there is no concept of a battalion, so 500 people are 500 people.

Between the 500 and the [-], there is also a thousand - a thousand is a thousand, and a thousand is a leader, also called a thousand captain, and a thousand is the smallest troop establishment of the Qin army.

But Ying Chengyu was not used to using thousands as the unit. He was used to the smallest team establishment being a battalion.The Taotie Army was a little uncomfortable, and the veterans were used to it.

The reason why Ying Chengyu stayed for a month was not only to allow the veterans to get used to the Taotie Army, but also to get the Taotie Army accustomed to fighting in battalion units.

The 5 men were divided into five armies: the front army, the rear army, the left army, the right army, and the center army.

Each army leads twenty battalions.

From the corps commander to the battalion commander, Ying Chengyu spent half a day making a preliminary decision.

Then he told the Taotie Army that because the veterans have traveled a long distance and are not in good condition today, if there are any who are dissatisfied with the veterans and want to be a corps commander or commander, please come to the martial arts field early tomorrow and challenge on the spot.

Each person has one chance, and each veteran only accepts one challenge per hour.

If you win, you will be the corps commander or commander; if you lose, your training will be doubled for the next month.

The next day.

The rising sun has not yet risen, but the sky will be bright.

The martial arts arena was already overcrowded.

There are three competitions: horse fighting, archery, and equestrian skills. Win two to win.

When the challenge started, the scene was in full swing, and there were many people who were unconvinced.

Wen Wu is the first, Wu Wu is the second. Even if you know you are powerful, you will fight. This is the case in the army.

You will know if you can beat it or not.

The two were fighting, and swear words were constantly being heard; arrows were flying, and targets were buzzing; horses were galloping, and people and horses were flashing.

Ying Chengyu changed into a plain white gown. After Gai Nie left, he preferred white.

There is a green jade belt with a dragon's head on the waist, and his hair is scattered behind his head without a crown. He does not look like a general, but like a noble prince who accidentally entered the military field.

Beside him were Wang Yan, Meng Wu, Meng Tian, ​​Li You, and Ying Jianglu.

The four people's eyes reflected the competition on the field, and they all watched it seriously.Wang Ye looked at it for a long time and said softly:
"General, how can this be compared to anything else? I'm afraid it won't take more than half a month. Training will take a month to get into shape. This is too much of a delay."

Ying Chengyu's eyes drifted towards his third nephew.

Ying Jianglu understood this and knew that this was not only a test for his uncle, but also an opportunity for him.

Since the arrival of Ying Chengyu, Ying Jianglu's position has been awkward.

If the king is not a king, there will be no general.

Apart from the title of Third Young Master of Great Qin, he has no other identity.

His ultimate goal as General Lu was to occupy the Xiongnu land and become king, not to be the Third Young Master of the Qin Dynasty.

He must prove himself in front of everyone. If he is still breathless after being suppressed by Meng Tian, ​​Ying Jianglu wants to return to Xianyang.Not to mention that he couldn't convince others, his uncle would definitely not let him become king outside the wall.

He took a breath and relaxed.

He and Li You chatted for half the night last night, analyzing the actions of Ying Chengyu, Meng Tian, ​​and Meng Wu.Wang Ye's problem today happened to be what the two of them had discussed yesterday, so he just had to follow the script.

"My lord, these challenges are meant to be a run-in, and the veterans are gradually integrating into the Taotie Army.

"Uncle, Lord Chang'an came to Jiuyuan for the first time. I don't know how capable the original Taotie Army is. This soldier competition can give you a rough idea. It can also be used to pick out those who are truly capable.

"No one will be dissatisfied with the corps commanders and chiefs selected in this way. When executing orders during combat, no one will be suspicious, move slowly, and delay the opportunity for combat."

Ying Jianglu was still a bit unfamiliar at first, but he became more proficient as he talked, and by the end he was able to talk eloquently.

After finishing speaking, Ying Jianglu looked at his uncle, seeking his reaction.

Ying Chengxi smiled.

"It's okay, I've made some progress."

Ying Jianglu wanted to hold back his laughter, but he couldn't help it. This was the first time he had been recognized by his uncle since he met him in Jiuyuan.

Wang Ye nodded, thoughtfully.

"I see."

Meng Wu's face was expressionless, as if he and Li Mu had provoked his son last year.He didn't believe that Wang Ye, a veteran as famous as his father, could be so ignorant.

My uncle has been fighting all his life. What is there about war that he doesn’t know?Does Xiu'er really think he can take over the Xiongnu land by cultivating the Third Young Master like this?

Meng Tian had the urge to hide his face. He recalled the time when he got angry in front of Li Mu and vowed to fight to the death in Jiuyuan and Yanmen.

Ying Jianglu now is the same as Meng Tian then.

Those who were in authority at the time were so mesmerized that they were confused.

As a bystander now, you can see it very clearly!
What a shame!
After a while, Meng Tian also thought of going with his father and looked at the back of Ying Cheng's head suspiciously.

Is Chang'an Jun really sure of victory?Or are you arrogant and don't take the Huns seriously?
After one day, the challenge was suspended and will continue tomorrow.

"Prince, please don't interfere with the outcome of the challenge. On the battlefield, the most capable will always win. If a veteran is defeated, you will only let him die if you push him forward."

Ying Chengyu warned the veteran.

He watched it all day today and basically figured out the general strength of the Taotie Army. He will not come to the martial arts field in the next few days.

"Yu understands."

Wang Ye nodded.

Ying Chengqiao smiled and glanced at his third nephew.

"Little Taotie, if I won't come tomorrow, will you come?"

Ying Jianglu was alerted and excited.

"Come!"
