【Chapter 407】 A rule that will not be broken for a thousand years

"Qiang, Qiang, Qiang!"

The Xu family compound, the former college field.

This was once the school ground for the young and strong training families of the Xu Chu and Xu Ding brothers, and it was also the martial arts training ground for them to practice martial arts since childhood.

The venue is not small, enough to accommodate 500 young and strong training, and there are eight weapon racks around the school field, and 18 kinds of weapons are readily available.

However, there was no one training on the school field today, and nearly 400 young men from the Xu family all stood on the sidelines, staring at the fierce fight on the field with wide eyes and intent.

"Click!"

After the two horses misplaced, the two sides went in opposite directions.

At this point, the two people fighting in the field gradually revealed their true faces, and it turned out that the people who fought fiercely just now were indeed Chen Zhi and Xu Ding. At present, the two have been fighting for 47 rounds, but they have no winner or loser, and they still need to fight again to see which is stronger.

Actually, before this, Chen Zhi had already fought with He Man. It's a pity that He Man's left leg injury has not healed, and after 50 rounds of fierce fighting with Chen Zhi, the wound collapsed, so he had to take a truce halfway and give up.

After a short rest, Chen Zhi and Xu Ding fought again, and now the two have been fighting fiercely for nearly an hour, but the battle is getting more and more intense, and it can be said that the war is in full swing.

The reason why there is such a battle today is that Huan Fei made two sentences lightly, prompting several military generals who had recently joined Li Li's command to catch and fight.

"The generals of my Xiliang Army have no bad race, and the battlefield battles are the most important martial arts and horsemanship, as for the art of war, I have not experienced a big war, and it is difficult to see which is better or worse. Therefore, if you want to lead a battalion of people as soon as possible, you must show your outstanding martial arts. Otherwise, how to convince the officers and men of the army? ”

This is what Huan Fei said in public this morning when everyone was exercising, which provoked a war.

When Li Li heard the news, Chen Zhi and He Man had already stopped fighting. The battle with Xu Ding has also begun.

"Flying Tiger, what's going on? How did I hear that you provoked a competition between the generals, and you were encouraging everyone to make a commotion on the sidelines, lest there be chaos in the house. Is there such a thing? Li Li walked quickly to the edge of the school field, brushed aside the crowd to see the excitement, and asked Huan Fei with an unkind face.

Seeing that the lord Li Li didn't seem to be really angry, Huan Fei suddenly pretended to be stupid and laughed: "Lord, you have wronged me!" These guys are all militants, and they don't feel well for a day without fighting. Outcome. And they fought, and that's how it happened. Hey, hey, hey??????"

"Hmph, full of lies and nonsense!" Li Li snorted coldly, and then pulled Huan Fei to the sidelines. Asked softly, "Tell me, what the hell is going on?" I want to hear the truth. If you dare to be untrustworthy again. Fifty rods, I do what I say! ”

"Ahh Huan Fei's expression changed greatly when he heard this, and he exclaimed, and said honestly: "Here's the thing. Early this morning, Chen Zhi, Xu Ding, Xu Chu, and He Man asked the last general about the situation in the army, and the last general seemed to be a little eager to try. I was eager to immediately command a battalion of men, so I told the rules in the general. As a result, they fought each other in order to distinguish between the superior and the inferior. ”

"The rules in the army? What rules. How did I not know? Li Li frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice.

"Ahh Huan Fei was shocked when he heard this, looked at Li Li in disbelief, and said in surprise: "Lord, this is a rule you set personally, how could you not know it?" ”

The more Li Li listened, the more confused he became, and he said puzzledly: "What's going on, you tell me 1510!" ”

"Okay." Seeing that the lord Li Li really didn't seem to remember, Huan Fei shook his head helplessly, and said truthfully: "Does the lord still remember the scene when you personally led the Long Xiang camp to prepare to recover Guzang City three years ago?" Halfway through, you stay overnight in Peach Blossom Village, and then meet Teng Xiao, Teng Yu, Meng Chong and others. At that time, you said to them: The strong are respected in the army, and it is clear whether it is a mule or a horse that comes out for a walk, and I will give you a great official position as much as you have! As a result, the two brothers Teng Xiao and Teng Yu stood out and became deputy commanders, directly leading a thousand people.

Since then, this has been the rule in our army. Any newcomer general, after receiving the appointment of the lord, must have extraordinary skills and submit to the generals under his account, otherwise it will be difficult to gain a foothold in the army. Even when the last general was in charge of the Tiger Roar Battalion, he defeated the two deputy commanders successively before he was able to successfully take charge of the entire battalion. However, this rule seems to be limited to the main battle camp, and there is no such rule among the county soldiers, because the county soldiers are mixed and often transferred, so there is no such rule. ”

"Seems to be the case." Li Li nodded with a deep sigh, but remembered the scene when he recruited the Teng brothers, which is still vivid in his mind, and it is indeed as Huan Fei said.

Thinking of these, Li Li's heart warmed inexplicably, and a long-lost sense of familiarity came to his heart. There are rules in the army, veterans bully new recruits, and veteran generals despise newcomers, and this phenomenon is also common in later generations of the army. Back then, "Li Zhengfeng", a high-achieving student who graduated from a military academy, was a lieutenant officer as soon as he entered the army, but he was disdained and extremely rejected by the soldiers. It wasn't until the first month of his entry into the army that he made a third-class meritorious service, which made the soldiers look up to him and truly regarded him as a member of the army.

This is the rule of the army, and only those who are capable will be respected and supported by soldiers; This rule has been the same since ancient times and has remained unchanged for thousands of years.

The army has its own rules, and the strong are respected, which is an unbreakable iron-like fact. The reason why the Xiliang Army can be famous all over the world for its courage and good fighting is because of its own perseverance and perseverance and the will to fight without fear of death. This precious tradition must not be lost, both now and in the future!

As the commander of the army, Li Li is very aware of the situation in the Xiliang army, and he is also well aware of the relationship between the generals in the army, which has both cooperation and competition. At present, the Xiliang army is no longer the small number of generals and lonely soldiers at the beginning of the army's initial construction, but has many masters and generals, and has grown into a relatively mature army system. The middle and senior generals who commanded the battalions, it was a turnip and a pit, and there were no vacant positions at all; In many cases, once there is a vacancy, there are immediately a dozen or even dozens or hundreds of generals vying for blood.

Because of this, it is indeed very difficult for a new general who has recently joined the army to gain a foothold in the army if he does not have outstanding skills and cannot convince the generals and officers under his account. Even coach Li Li thinks highly of him. Entrusted with important tasks, he also needs to surrender his generals with his own ability before he can take charge of the army.

Just like the current Chen Zhi, Xu Chu, Xu Ding, He Man and He Yi, who first joined Li Li's command, they will definitely not get too high military positions, let alone the opportunity to lead a battalion of men and horses in a short period of time. Unless Li Li deliberately expanded a battalion of people for them alone, in addition, they could only slowly polish their qualifications and gradually promote step by step. And adding a battalion of men and horses alone is not something that can be done if you want to. Weapons, armor, horses, food supplies, job structures and stations, etc., all need to be properly procured, and there are many implications. At a time when Xiliang was stable and there was no large-scale war, Li Li would never easily expand his army, thereby increasing the burden of money and grain supply in the Xiliang Mansion's treasury, which was already very tight.

Li Li was thinking about things in his head. While walking to the sidelines, he watched the fight between Chen Zhi and Xu Ding on the field.

"Bell!" Fierce slamming. Chen Zhi raised his spear and attacked continuously as fast as electricity. But seeing that his hands were unreined, holding a spear with five zhangwu, the spear was stabbing at the edge, swinging the spear horizontally, the attack was fierce and fierce, and the spear skills were exquisite. Every time the gun is picked. It was to hit the key point, prompting Xu Ding to swing his knife to parry and fall into a passive situation. It can be seen that Chen Zhi has the essence of spearmanship - fast. With a swift and fast attack, Xu Ding was forced to defend passively, and then replaced defense with offense, and firmly occupied the main offensive advantage of the battle.

Compared with Chen Dao, who attacked fiercely, Xu Ding was extremely calm when he fought, and his knife skills were skillful, and he had rules and regulations for every move, and he had both offense and defense. In the face of Chen Zhi's strong attack, Xu Ding defended calmly and counterattacked from time to time, seemingly deliberately consuming Chen Zhi's strength and waiting for the opportunity. As long as Chen Zhi's strength shows a slight flaw, Xu Ding will quickly counterattack, not only reversing the situation of passive defense, but also defeating Chen Zhi in one fell swoop and winning the final victory in the battle.

Carefully observing the martial arts and riding skills of the two people in the field, Li Li then knew in his heart that he had already seen which of the two was superior and which was inferior.

Chen Zhi, who is at the age of the crown, is undoubtedly strong, there is almost no defense in the battle, and he completely replaces defense with offense, forcing Xu Ding to have no time to clone with a fierce offensive as fast as lightning, and he is unable to counterattack. This kind of combat skill is actually the correct strategy among the fighting generals, and it is the way to win the battle. What's more, Chen Zhi has been fighting fiercely with Xu Ding for an hour, and it is undoubtedly wise to chase and fight fiercely at this time; Because he has roughly figured out the characteristics of Xu Ding's martial arts and the strength of Liliang. On the other hand, Xu Ding's swordsmanship is pure, his personality is calm, and he has both offense and defense, but he seems to be more defensive and less aggressive. Under such passive defense, he was passively beaten everywhere, and he was already in an extremely disadvantageous situation.

The truth is exactly as Li Li predicted.

"Boom!" When the fierce battle on the field reached seventy-three rounds, as Chen Zhixuan shook a shot, it seemed that the spear was stabbing suddenly, but when he was about to die, he suddenly changed his moves, and the barrel of the gun shook, and the blade of the gun shook Xu Ding's horizontal blade in front of his chest, and the tip of the gun flashed coldly, reaching Xu Ding's chest. At this point, when the two fought fiercely for nearly two hours, the victory and defeat had been divided; Chen Zhi was superior in skill after all, and Xu Dingqi was one move short of it, and unfortunately lost to Chen Zhi's men.

"Uncle Zhi will rest for half an hour, and after the rest, a certain Chu will fight with you!" Seeing his brother's defeat, Xu Chu, who was already itching while standing on the sidelines, immediately raised his voice to fight.

"It's just that they are all their own brothers, and there will be opportunities to learn from each other in the future. That's it for today, no more fighting! Hearing Xu Chu's challenge, Li Li suddenly strode into the middle of the field, waved his hand to stop Chen Dao, who was about to fight, and said aloud with an easy-going expression.

That's right, the look on Li Li's face is indeed very easy-going, but the tone of his voice is unquestionable, and he is decisive in one word. The reason why he did this was not to oppose the martial arts among the generals under his command, but that Chen Zhi, Xu Chu and others had been together for too short a time, and they did not have a deep friendship with each other, so it was easy to fight real fire, and they had a gap between each other, which was not conducive to unity. After they get acquainted with each other in the future, no matter how they fight, Li Li will not interfere, because that is the real martial arts, but at this time, there is indeed a sense of a battle of will. Therefore, Li Li directly spoke out to stop it, causing the school battle to cease and end hastily.
