Chongzhen Chat Group

Just under the spotlight, the newly armed soldiers made their debut. There was not a trace of noise, nor the commotion that some people expected. They all had serious expressions, the infantry trotted, and the clanging of armor and footsteps were uniform. It's as if these new soldiers used themselves as beating machines and the earth as drums. The sound they made even drowned out the sound of real drums and was shocking!

This was not over yet. The cavalry officers of the new army appeared under control of their horses. There were five horses in a row, marching in unison, entering at a medium speed. The rumble of horse hooves added to the medley above the school grounds, adding to the shock!

Before the three tongs and drums were finished, more than 5,000 new troops had already lined up on the school field, divided into three square formations, neatly organized.

Those civil and military officials who wanted to see the joke were speechless. Although the practice competition has not yet been conducted, the momentum of the appearance has already shocked them.

Although this is a new army, the soldiers who make up the new army are all elite veterans from the border armies, and they have basically seen blood. Just standing there, the murderous aura of more than five thousand people gathered together can make ordinary weak scholars tremble.

With such an army and such momentum, who dares to laugh at the fact that this is a silver gun and a candle head?

Emperor Chongzhen looked very satisfied on the general stage and did not say anything. He just ordered the new army's chief instructor Mao Yuanyi to give the order to start.

As a result, on the school grounds, all that was heard was Mao Yuanyi's loud orders, and the three square formations below began to drill in accordance with the military orders. All kinds of tactical movements were basically in order, and the orders and prohibitions were followed, especially the military formation drills, which made many knowledgeable generals couldn't help but nod.

Zu Dashou, who was standing on the stage, knew more than anyone else. He believed that if he told his colleagues that all the generals with official positions such as captain and above in this army were very familiar with military theory and had passed the examination of the martial arts hall with good or above, they would definitely be shocked.

Not to mention this, the emperor also arranged for the supervisory army to teach all the soldiers of the new army. It can be said that there are no soldiers in this army who cannot read yet. The only difference is how much we know each other. It is estimated that such an army has never existed in all dynasties. It is simply extremely luxurious. Well, this is also where the hope lies in whether the military attache can turn around! I hope you won’t live up to the emperor’s expectations!

At this time, when Emperor Chongzhen was watching the drills of the new soldiers, he also glanced at the civil and military officials. Seeing that each of them looked surprised, he couldn't help but feel very happy. I devoted myself wholeheartedly to the new army, and now I have finally gained something.

This is just a military formation and tactical drill, and the skills of these elite soldiers have not yet been demonstrated. Otherwise, I am afraid these civil and military officials will be surprised.

Not to mention that the spears of the spearmen are longer than ordinary spears, which can be used at an advantage on the battlefield; just the archers, when they were originally selected, all of them must be of the standard of a sharp archer, capable of firing strong bows and shooting accurately. , even Jianlu's white-armored soldiers would probably be unlucky if they encountered them.

There is also an artillery battalion, which has not yet been trained. When it is completed, people of this era will be able to see what it is like to fire a group of artillery!

After half an hour, the drill ended. The three square formations reunited in front of the general stage. Cao Bianjiao, Zhao Jie, and Sun Lei each stood at the front of the square formation, waiting for the announcement of the drill results.

Mao Yuanyi turned around and strode to the front of the imperial court. He clasped his fists and loudly reported: "Your Majesty, the new army has completed its drill. Your Majesty, please appoint the generals!"

When the civil and military officials heard this, most of them couldn't help but turn 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 obey the orders and prohibitions. 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 perspective, they can see that there are differences in the performance of the three square formations. If the emperor is also knowledgeable, judging from the drill just now, he will definitely choose this.

No surprise, Cao Bianjiao's hard work finally paid off. Emperor Chongzhen appointed him as the new military advisor.

"General Cao Bianjiao and division supervisor Feng Dehua of the First Division of the Ming Empire Army came on stage to express their gratitude." The shrill voice of the eunuch on duty shouted, which immediately made many civil and military officials puzzled. Forget about Cao becoming a dragon, who is this division supervisor Feng Dehua?

Several people knew that Zu Dashou was also involved in the New Army affairs, so they asked for advice in a low voice. Zu Dashou pointed at the eunuch who came on stage with Cao Bianjiao and said, "That's him. He is the supervisor of Cao Bianjiao's command. Because Cao Bianjiao was promoted to division general, he also became a supervisor of the division level and a division supervisor." , from the fourth grade!”

Upon hearing this, they quickly looked over and found that the fourth-grade supervisor was very young! There are a lot of new things in this new army, so I couldn't help but ask each other about them again.

However, the noise immediately attracted a scolding from the censor who was supervising etiquette. I had no choice but to hold it back and prepare to inquire more about it after this matter was over.

Of course, those who are interested in the big shots in the DPRK and China have already inquired about it, and it is not difficult to understand the organization of the new army. For them, it is naturally not surprising.

On the general stage, Emperor Chongzhen saw two young men, Cao Bianjiao and Feng Dehua, thanking the emperor. He smiled and asked them to stand down, and then said a little more seriously: "Today is when the new army will truly become an army. The flag of the new army will be , I have already prepared."

After finishing speaking, he nodded to Cao Huachun, the eunuch in charge of the ceremony and eunuch standing next to him. I saw Cao Huachun taking the tray from a palace maid at the back and personally delivering it to Cao Bianjiao and Feng Dehua. He handed it over to them and whispered something.

Therefore, Cao Bianjiao and Feng Dehua teamed up to unfurl the military flag and display it for everyone to see.

I saw that the bottom of this military flag was red, with the word "明" simply embroidered in the middle. Under the word "明", there are two firearms embroidered crosswise, which are somewhat similar to blunderbuss, but not exactly the same. 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 flag 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 bright eyes, he looked past 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 promote the power of our Ming army and make the enemies of the Ming Dynasty fearful. Reserved The fine style of the army condenses the soul of the new army and is passed down from generation to generation, making this military flag immortal forever! Answer me, can you do it?"
