The Model Army already has perfect rules and procedures for selecting soldiers, but there are some differences between the commanders of different departments.

Like Zhou Guofeng in front of him, it is not only a test of the strength of the soldiers, but also a test of their physical flexibility, coordination, and flexibility.

Dahan was a little aggrieved at this time, but Zhou Guofeng had already spoken, and everyone was watching again, so he could only grit his teeth and come up.

"Hiss......"

Really.

Just as he expected, as soon as he smeared this fish oil on his hands and body, the slippery feeling with a rich fishy smell made him gasp.

Before he could step forward, the two soldiers had already gone over and smeared the stone pier with fish oil, and the stone pier, which was originally full of slippery and slippery color, suddenly became shiny, which also caused a low discussion among the onlookers.

It's as if they were waiting for the big man, the guinea pig, to go up first, looking for experience.

Dahan couldn't help but feel more aggrieved in his heart.

Knowing that there are so many routines in this, he must not be in a hurry to be the first to go to wow......

At this time, regret was useless, he gritted his teeth, strode forward, gathered his strength, and roared, he hugged the stone pier, but he adjusted it several times, but he still couldn't find the power point.

The Model Army is so bad.

Ordinary stone piers can have a place to start, but the one in front of me has obviously been carefully polished, but it is not a place to start......

"Hah-"

A few minutes later, seeing that he really couldn't find a place to start, the big man was already sweating profusely, so he didn't have time to think about it, so he directly clamped it with his arms. Tighten the stone pier, hold your stomach up, and hold it up.

The main reason is that the stone pier itself is not sinking, and it is only a small meaning for him to find the power point.

"Good!"

"This master is a good means!"

There was a burst of cheers all around.

Zhou Guofeng's eyes also lit up.

This damn thing, this big man's flexibility and flexibility are obviously not very good, but he can't beat the strength, just look at the appearance of this guy, not to mention the eight in front of him. Ninety pounds of piers, I'm afraid two hundred pounds is not a problem for him.

"Brother is a good means, it's over!"

Zhou Guofeng smiled and clapped his hands at the big man.

Dahan was suddenly relieved, and hurriedly threw down the stone pier, roaring like an excited bear, and the crowd cheered one after another.

His brother also gained experience and followed closely with all his might.

It's a pity that his brother obviously didn't have as much strength as him, and he dropped twice in a row, and only barely lifted it the third time, but fortunately, he passed it.

Suddenly, this man with a strong face couldn't help but kneel on the ground and cry with his head up to the sky.

After a while, the big man also rushed over, hugged him with great excitement, and the two brothers hugged each other and cried, finally coming out.

"The sky opens its eyes, the ancestors bless, and the Hou Ye opens the ......"

Their father was even more excited and excited that he couldn't find the north, and he was busy kneeling on the ground, desperately kowtowing in the direction of Xu Changqing's official hall.

But instead of anyone around laughing at them, there was uncontrollable envy in their eyes, this family will be developed in the future.

The more active ones were the matchmakers who were wandering around, who were already smiling and began to inquire about the details of their homes.

The identity of the model army, especially the soldiers, is undoubtedly the best pass for Haicheng!

As the backbone of Haicheng, Xu Changqing's siblings deserve the best treatment!

Zhou Guofeng couldn't help grinning, these two fierce men are good seedlings.

As for flexibility and flexibility, when they enter the army, there are ways to train them.

The two brothers won off to a good start, which also pushed the atmosphere of the scene to a small high. tide, the test continues.

But then many people don't have such good innate conditions as the brothers, and at least six out of ten people will fail, so they can only be helplessly brushed down.

Fortunately, there were other recruiting points around, and they didn't stay, hurriedly packed up their things and went to other places to try their luck.

……

Just when the recruitment activities in Haicheng were in full swing and Xu Changqing was constantly inspecting various recruitment points, new news came from the northwest again.

As expected, in the face of the Qing army's 'chain of buckles', Li Zicheng was already a little stubborn, and the model army did not realize at night in front that Xijing had begun to have population and materials, and moved towards Yunyang Mansion overnight.

Although they are very secretive, they have been operating at night, and they have all taken small roads, and have hardly walked the main roads, but they are still detected by the night guards of the model army.

Xu Changqing was inspecting Wang Hongyang's department at this time, and after reading it, he threw the information to Wang Hongyang.

Wang Hongyang couldn't help but gasp after reading it: "Dashuai, the Tartar is too poisonous!" If they do this, I'm afraid that Li Zicheng won't dare to go with them head-on, and he will retreat directly to Huguang's ......."

Xu Changqing nodded slowly.

This is exactly the cleverness of Dolgon, Hong Chengchou and others,—— the water leads to the east!

Moreover, it is very likely to contribute to the division within the Great Shun Kingdom.

After all, Li Zicheng had already divided a lot of land before, and it was still unknown whether these old soldiers of the Great Shunguo who had land could follow Li Zicheng.

Damn it, the Qing army obviously didn't exert its strength, but it used yang to directly reverse the passive situation and push the pressure on the Ming Dynasty......

"Lao Wang, there is not much time left for our brothers!"

After a while, Xu Changqing let out a long breath.

Wang Hongyang's face also fell fiercely: "Dashuai, we will have a scale of 90,000 people now, and we can at least draw out 40,000 people to go out to fight, if the dog Tartars really dare to mess around, we must not let them be so comfortable!" ”

……

In less than 10 days, the new 40,000-strong personnel of the model army had been fully recruited, and they quickly entered the state of training in the new barracks.

There is more news coming from all over the world.

After six or seven days of transferring population and materials from Dashun to Yunyang, Zuo Liangyu's night failure finally found out that he was tired.

However, instead of strengthening the defense of the northwest front, the 'Ping Thief General' used this as an excuse to open his mouth to the lion of the imperial court, demanding an additional salary of one million taels per year.

When the news reached Nanjing, the cabinet was in an uproar, and then the court was in an uproar.

Whether the Nanjing side is an 'alternate' government or not, they are all ineffective, how can they have the experience of dealing with this kind of thing before?

Now, the whole of Nanjing is in a mess.

Not long after, Zuo Liangyu's handwritten letter was also delivered to Xu Changqing.

In the letter, Zuo Liangyu cried poverty to Xu Changqing, claiming that many of his sons and daughters had not been paid this year, and everyone was tight and tightened their belts during the New Year, if he hadn't been trying his best to suppress it, I'm afraid something would have happened a long time ago.

In the end, Zuo Liangyu said vaguely that if the salary was formed, he would give Xu Changqing fifty percent......

Xu Changqing couldn't help but sneer after reading the letter.

Zuo Liangyu, this bad old man, is really bad!

A few words just wanted to pull him Xu Changqing into the water.

Xu Changqing was indeed very short of money at this time, but he would not use such a means to do so.

The imperial court did relieve some anger at this time, but at this time, it was only about to be ploughed in the spring, how could this year's autumn grain be harvested in the second half of the year, and where would he get so much silver?

This dog's day is clearly doing something!

He must have some kind of connection and tacit understanding with the Qing army!

However, after the anger, he really calmed down, and Xu Changqing gradually figured out Dolgon's big game.

The Great Qing Kingdom is to mess up the Ming Dynasty!

The more messy the better!

The key Daming gang really can't stand provoking, Zuo Liangyu is just throwing stones to ask for directions at this time, if the imperial court does not handle it well, Liu Liangzuo, Huang Degong, including Liu Zeqing, will definitely follow.

"The mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings. The era of real waves is about to begin! ”

Xu Changqing lit a bag of cigarettes and exhaled a long breath of turbidity, immersing himself in smoke.

The more difficult it is, the more you have to keep your heart, and the more you have to grasp yourself!

Now, everything is false, and it is true to grasp yourself!

Only by ensuring the sharpness of the model army can we have more choices in the future changes!

……

In the next few days, Shi Kefa, Ma Shiying, including Empress Zhou's handwritten letters, flew towards Haicheng like snowflakes, hoping that Xu Changqing would come forward to suppress Zuo Liangyu.

Xu Changqing ignored it directly and devoted himself to training.

At this time, the model army seemed to have recruited 40,000 people, but only 20,000 soldiers were really recruited from the people, and the rest were reserve auxiliaries who were replaced by the army. loadout, you can directly join the soldier sequence.

However, the follow-up reserve auxiliaries also need to be replenished, and more than 40,000 people are still recruited.

This seems to be a numbers game that doesn't matter, but the difference is very different, which can maintain the combat power of the model army and ensure the skeleton of the model army to the greatest extent.

In a flash, the time has come to the beginning of May, and the weather is gradually starting to dry and hot.

In the face of Xu Changqing's silence, it was not surprising that Liu Liangzuo, Huang Degong, and Liu Zeqing also made a fuss and demanded an increase in salaries from the imperial court.

Zuo Liangyu even threatened to give up Xiangyang and continued to increase the weight of the imperial court.

Empress Zhou couldn't hold back anymore at this time, and sent one of her confidants to see Xu Changqing in Haicheng in person, hoping that Xu Changqing would come forward.

"Woo...... Master Hou, the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is crying almost every day these days, and her eyes are a little bad......"

This palace maid is in her early thirties, and she looks very pure, but she has obviously been in the palace for a long time, crying aggrievedly, but secretly looking at Xu Changqing's expression.

"Is she alright?"

Xu Changqing looked at her slowly and methodically, without the slightest fluctuation.

The palace maid hurriedly said respectfully with a crying voice: "Lord Hou, the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother estimates that it will be ...... in the last ten days and a half months Gave birth to ......"

“……”

Xu Changqing was silent for a while.

What the fuck is this...... Iniquity......

However, at this time, the new army has gradually stepped onto the track, and the conditions for the model army to go out to fight have tended to mature, and it is time for Xu Changqing to express his position.

Seeing that Xu Changqing didn't speak, the palace maid didn't dare to breathe, and humbly waited for Xu Changqing's reply.

After a while, Xu Changqing said: "Queen Mother, what do you mean by the emperor?" ”

Seeing that Xu Changqing finally spoke, the palace maid breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said: "Back to the words of the marquis, what the queen mother and the emperor mean...... Yes, you can add a part of the salary, but you can't add so much. If Hou Ye is willing to come forward, the imperial court will pay Hou Ye and the model army an additional 200,000 taels. As for the others, they can only, only add 100,000 taels ......"

Xu Changqing couldn't help laughing.

He had long expected that Empress Zhou, including Zhu Cihong and the cabinet, would make this choice.

Zuo Liangyu and the four of them, with a total scale of three or four hundred thousand, are in the heart of the Ming Dynasty, directly threatening the security of Nanjing, and the Nanjing Imperial Court has no way to restrain them.

But compromising at this time is tantamount to quenching their thirst by drinking, and it will only make Zuo Liangyu's desire continue to increase, so that they can't be cleaned up!

However, for Xu Changqing, this is a good choice.

As long as the four divisions can be stable for a while, Xu Changqing and the model army will have more time and be more prepared!

At this time, there are two roads in front of Xu Changqing!

First, when the Qing army started, they stabbed the chrysanthemums of the Qing army and forced them to give up the encirclement and suppression of the exile army.

The second is to rush to the Huguang line in advance and prepare in advance.

Both have their advantages and disadvantages.

But how to choose, or according to the changes in the situation to make the right judgment!

After a while, Xu Changqing nodded and said, "I know, you go down to rest first, and I'll reply to the Queen Mother immediately!" ”
