Chapter 463 Military Soul
Under the eyes of everyone, the fully armed new soldiers appeared on the stage.There was no noise, let alone the chaos that some people expected. All of them had serious expressions.It was as if these new soldiers used themselves as the hammer and the earth as the drum. The sound they made even drowned out the sound of the real drum, which was breathtaking!

This is not over yet, the cavalry generals belonging to the new army appeared in charge of the horses, a row of five horses, neatly in one line, marching side by side, entering the arena at a medium horse speed.The rumble of horseshoes added to the sound of the medley in the air above the school field, adding to the shock!
Before the three-way drum was completed, more than 5000 people from the new army had already lined up on the school field, divided into three square formations, neatly.

Those civil and military officials who wanted to see a joke were already speechless in a daze.Although the rehearsal competition has not yet been carried out, the momentum of their appearance has already surprised them.

Although this is a new army, the soldiers who make up the new army are all elite veterans from all sides, and basically all of them have seen blood.Just standing there like that, the killing spirit gathered by more than [-] people can make ordinary frail scholars terrified.

Such an army, such an imposing manner, who would dare to laugh at the candle head of a silver gun?
Emperor Chongzhen was very satisfied with the generals on the platform, and he didn't say a word, but ordered the new army's chief instructor, Xie Mao Yuanyi, to give the order to start.

So, on the school field, only Mao Yuanyi's loud order was heard, and the three phalanxes below began to practice following the military order.All kinds of tactical actions are basically neat and orderly, and the orders are prohibited, especially the drills of the military formation, which made many knowledgeable generals nod their heads.

Zu Dashou who stood on the stage knew more than others.He believed that if he told his colleagues that the generals above the rank of captain of this army were all familiar with military theory, and all of them passed the assessment in the martial arts hall above good, they would definitely be surprised.

Not to mention, the emperor also arranged for the supervisor to teach all the soldiers of the new army.It can be said that there are no soldiers in this army who do not know how to read.The only difference is how much you know.It is estimated that such an army has never existed in all dynasties, and it is simply extremely luxurious.Well, it is also the hope that the military attache can stand up!Hope you don't disappoint the emperor's expectations!
At this time, Emperor Chongzhen also glanced at all the civil and military officials when he was watching the drill of the new army soldiers, and he couldn't help being very happy to see that all of them showed surprise on their faces.I have devoted myself to the new army, and now I have finally gained something.

This is just an army formation and tactical drill, and the skills of these elite soldiers have not yet been reflected.Otherwise, these civil and military officials would be even more surprised.

Not to mention that the spears of those spearmen are longer than ordinary spears, which can be advantageous on the battlefield; the archers alone, when they were selected at the beginning, all of them had to meet the standards of a sharp archer, with strong bows and accurate shots. , even the white armor soldiers of Jianlu, it is estimated that they will be unlucky if they meet.

In addition, there is also the Artillery Battalion, which has not yet been practiced. When the practice is completed, let people of this era see what it is like to fire a group of cannons!
After half an hour, the drill ended.The three phalanxes reunited in front of the point general's platform.Cao Bianjiao, Zhao Jie, and Sun Lei stood at the front of the phalanx, waiting for the announcement of the drill results.

Mao Yuanyi turned around and strode to the front of the imperial court, clasped his fists and shouted loudly: "Report to Your Majesty, the new army's drill is over, please Your Majesty to select the generals!"

When the civil and military officials heard this, most of them couldn't help turning their heads to look at Emperor Chongzhen.In their eyes, the drills of these three phalanxes are very good, and the soldiers are also very elite, and they can all obey orders.In this case, how would the emperor choose?

However, some military officers with real talents and knowledge among them turned their attention to Cao Bianjiao.From their expert eyes, they can see that the performance of the three phalanxes is still different.If the emperor is also knowledgeable, judging from the situation of the drill just now, it is estimated that he will definitely choose this.

Not surprisingly, Cao Bianjiao's hard work finally paid off.Emperor Chongzhen's hand-picked appointment was to appoint him as the new military adviser.

"General Cao Bianjiao of the First Division of the Ming Empire Army, and Feng Dehua, the division supervisor, came to the stage to thank you." The eunuch on duty shouted in a high-pitched voice, which made many civil and military officials wonder again.Forget about Cao Bianjiao, who is this supervisor Feng Dehua?

A few people knew that Zu Dashou was also involved in the new army, so they asked for advice in a low voice.Zu Dashou pointed to the eunuch who was on stage with Cao Bianjiao and said: "That's him, the supervisor of Cao Bianjiao's subordinate, because Cao Bianjiao was promoted to division general, he also became a division-level supervisor, and is a division supervisor. , from the fourth grade!"

Hearing this, they quickly looked over and found that the supervisor from the fourth rank was very young!There are a lot of new things in this new army, so they couldn't help asking each other again.

However, there was a lot of noise, which immediately attracted the scolding of the censor who supervised etiquette.I had no choice but to hold back and prepare to inquire after this matter is over.

Of course, those bigwigs who are interested in the court have already inquired about it, and it is not difficult to learn about the formation of the new army.For them, it is not surprising.

On the platform, Emperor Chongzhen saw two young men Cao Bianjiao and Feng Dehua thanking the emperor, he smiled and let them flatten, and then said a little seriously: "Today is the time when the new army will really form an army. The flag of the new army , I have already prepared."

After finishing speaking, he nodded to the eunuch Cao Huachun, who was standing beside him.Cao Huachun took the tray from a maid in the back, personally delivered it to Cao Bianjiao and Feng Dehua, and gave it to them while whispering a word.

Therefore, Cao Bianjiao and Feng Dehua jointly unfolded the military flag and displayed it for everyone to see.

I saw that the underside of this military flag was red, and the word "Ming" was simply embroidered in the middle.Under the word "Ming", there are two firearms embroidered crosswise, which are somewhat similar to bird guns, but not quite.On the vertical strip on the inner side of the flag, the words "First Division of the Ming Empire Army" are embroidered.

Emperor Chongzhen said with a serious face: "This is the flag of the new army, which represents your new army. You are brave and good at fighting, and you are invincible. The enemy will be frightened when they see this flag. On the contrary, this flag represents shame! This The military flag represents what all of you have done. The future glory of this military flag depends on each of you. It can be said that this military flag is your military soul."

At this time, with piercing eyes, he crossed the military flag, looked at all the new soldiers in the audience, and continued to say loudly: "I hope to see that this military flag can raise the prestige of our Ming army and make the enemies of the Ming Dynasty feel terrified. Keep it up." The excellent style of the army, gather the soul of the new army, and pass it on from generation to generation, so that this military flag will be immortal forever! Answer me, can it be done?"
