Chapter 135: Divide formula

The two of them did not deliberately deal with Dai Ji, so Dai Ji made a fuss. Today, the first dichotomy to be held in the camp was about to begin. There were quite a few people invited to watch the ceremony. Among the people sitting on the reading stand, there were several powerful figures from the Dongping Army, and former general Xu Jingtian came in person. Such readings were more of a show of martial arts, and naturally there should be objects of showing off among the invited guests. Tao Ze, the envoy of Chunnan Kingdom, sat silently.

In the corner, and on the other side are several old men from the Dai family in Yunzhou. These old guys have been in the army since childhood or managed government affairs in Yunzhou. They did not retreat until they could not fight. They have very vicious eyesight. Although they are not core members of the Dai family, they all have great military achievements or political achievements. Inviting the Dai family in Yunzhou to participate in the review is to express their affection, and on the other hand, they are also to respond to the Dai family's temptation to Dongping, about whether they can send troops into Yunzhou.

With these old men present, Ye Tao smiled and ordered Dai Ji to be brought over and stuffed among the Dai family members. Sure enough, Dai Ji did not dare to make any sound in front of several old men, but instead had to worry about why they were asking why they appeared here. However, when the order began, Dai Ji could not move his eyes away. These were the elites of the Blood Qi Army, and the recruits had not yet been fully equipped.

What attracts Dai Ji the most is the cavalry and heavy infantry of the Blood Qi Army. When he slowly walked past the school reading stand in his shiny armor, Dai Ji compared the troops he saw with the Tie Yunqi, who was most familiar with, and felt a little jealous. It was too extravagant, really extravagant. The Tie Yunqi is also a strong army built by Yunzhou, but its equipment is much shabby compared to the Blood Qi Army in front of him. Not only are the cavalry of the Blood Qi Army each with very satisfactory armor, but even the mounts are equipped with carefully designed armor on key parts. The cavalry held the Snow Qi sword in front of him, and the dazzling reflection

It fully demonstrates the sharpness of the sword blade. The saddles and saddle bags of the cavalry are designed to fit the arc of the back of the horse. After installation, they objectively act as the leather armor of the horse. There are bows and quivers on the saddle bag, which fully demonstrates that this is a cavalry unit that is like the Iron Cloud Cavalry, and everyone has to pull bows and shoot archers. At this time, Zou Shuangwen, who was aggrieved to explain to the Dai family, explained: "On the other side of the saddle bag is a leather bag with folded hand crossbows. Our Blood Qi army and local cavalry units can draw bows and shoot archers, so it is natural to be a problem with hand crossbows. By the way, the cavalry bows of our Blood Qi army are all compound bows. As for arrows, arrow heads are specially made. Please see..."

Zou Shuangwen took out a special bloodletting arrow from his pocket and respectfully handed it to an old man from the Dai family. The old man was named Dai Ye, who was once one of the commanders of the Tie Yunqi. Because he had no other ability except for fighting, he did not continue to work in Yunzhou after retreating. He was a little reluctant to be sent to Danyang this time. It was because he was there. Dai Ji never dared to be arrogant. Dai Ye took the arrow, weighed the weight, looked carefully at the bloodletting air on the arrow, and said, "This thing is dangerous, it's amazing to win one. However, this thing is probably not cheap either. It's very expensive to fight a war."

Zou Shuangwen smiled and said, "Actually, it's okay. This arrow can still be recycled after it is used up. The steel used to make arrowheads is very good. It won't be bent or broken if you use it several times."

"What if it falls into the hands of the enemy? It will be a problem to shoot yourself." Dai Ye asked.

"We are the Blood Qi Army who can clean up the battlefield alive." Zou Shuangwen said confidently: "Besides, the cavalry armor and heavy infantry armor are generally not allowed to be shot. Other troops have few opportunities to expose them to the enemy's bows and arrows. In addition, the cavalry swords held by the cavalry are concierge swords, which are polished to look good. The old general can go to the camp with Dai Ji to see our cavalry armor and other weapons. The new cavalry swords are more good now, but they have not been fully equipped. The replacement part is for training the soldiers in our new camp. Moreover, the cavalry of my Blood Qi Army. In addition to the cavalry swords, most of the stabbing guns are also good. When you really march, there will be other equipment on the saddle bags, such as tents, dry food, water bags, medicine belts, and emergency ropes. These things are stunning and will not be taken out today."

Just as Zou Shuangwen explained, the heavy infantry platoon came over. Since he had not been in the Blood Qi army for a long time, Qiu Haohui was a little excited. Today he actually led the team to the demarcation. His luxurious cloisonne armor was amazing. Dai Ji's eyes were fixed on the heavy infantry with two half-person-high spears in his hands. Compared to the tip of the gun with cold light, the claw-shaped device at the tail of the gun could arouse his interest. He pulled Dai Ye, and the two looked at each other and understood that this was specially designed to allow the heavy infantry platoon to cope with the impact of the cavalry. They were all thinking in their minds that it was still a question whether such an infantry formation, even their Iron Cloud Cavalry, could rush.

Zou Shuangwen smiled and said, "The heavy infantry are working harder. They can only use long spears when walking in the parade, such as tower shields and long-handed knives. After taking them, they will walk in the parade. They will have no strength to compete in a while."

"What?" Dai Ye and Dai Ji were shocked. They walked around the campus wearing this kind of armor and were going to participate in the competition. What kind of monster's physical strength is this?

"Half of the training subjects of heavy infantry are physically training. It's not surprising that they are particularly strong in this regard. Moreover, apart from the long-handed swords with both hands, they don't need to master too many other weapons. They just need to stand there with such long spears, tower shields, etc.," Zou Shuangwen explained. Although his very unskilled explanation would inevitably be heard by Qiu Haohui, who has a lot of affection for heavy infantry, this is the most reasonable and convenient explanation for the Dai family.

After the baggage team that had just been formed and had not even participated in any type of combat training passed by the school reading stand, Dai Ji's expression had completely changed. He looked at Zou Shuangwen not as dissatisfied, but a little... a little angry. "So this is the case with the Blood Qi Army, then are you still practicing those useless things in the camp?" Dai Ji rushed out.

"Ball of the New Guard! All you are with the New Guard!" Zou Shuangwen said with confidence: "My task is to let everyone pass the 25 basic indicators and then divide them into different arms according to the different characteristics of different people. If the Governor had not asked our Blood Qi Army, the Imperial Guards and the City Guards to compete at the same time, many course camps should not have arranged any land. Although this group of new recruits have learned more because of such competitions this year. But if the basic items are not qualified, the heads of different troops will come to me to settle the score. I still want to throw you to the Cavalry Battalion now, but if you don't pass the twenty-five exams, it is my dereliction of duty. Even if there is a record of dereliction of duty, it is not easy to get involved in the Blood Qi Army."

"You can't let everyone get on a horse, be able to stab a gun, dismount, pull a bow and shoot arrows, or even build bridges, and use a catapult cart and a divine arm bow... Where can you train like this?" Dai Ji refused to give up.

"But, almost everyone in the Blood Qi Army can do it. There is no need to let the heavy infantry shoot archers be as accurate as possible. There is no need to let the cavalry shoot with a catapult cart, and it is just to use it. Instead of encountering a chaotic situation on the battlefield and then studying how to play, it is better for everyone to prepare first if they have time and energy. The standards in the recruit camp are not high, and when you go back and divide your troops, the days of suffering will begin. Don't think that you are very good at riding and shooting. As long as you can be a camp or above, you will not be much different than those like you who have been hunting on the grassland since childhood. As long as you don't enter the combat readiness state, you will be staring at any position. Do you think anyone is qualified to take the recruit camp? How many people who are better than you here are obediently serving as wardens and sergeant commanders."

Dai Ji said unconvincedly: "Who believes in you! There are indeed those who are better than me. But there are definitely not as many as you said."

Zou Shuangwen sneered and said, "Let's make a bet. You can participate in the standard 100 assessments according to the Blood Qi Army's Charter. If you can pass the 70 items, I will protect you. You can choose any army. You can choose any battalion. Cavalry, heavy infantry, longbowmen, equipment camp, and baggage camp. You can choose as long as you choose. As for whether you can go up in the camp, it's not my final say. If you can't pass the 60 items, then you obediently in the recruit camp."

Dai Ji said with almost no hesitation: "Okay, this is what you said." He looked at the Blood Kiri Army cavalry in beautiful and mighty armor with great gaze.

At this time, Zou Shuangwen patted Dai Jidi's shoulder and said, "Don't say I'm making things difficult for you, you know. Governor Dai only passed seventy-three items. The best-achieved Blood Qi army, but passed eighty-six items."

Dai Ji wanted to say something arrogantly again, but was forced back into his stomach by Zou Shuangwen's sharp eyes. Zou Shuangwen said coldly: "It's useless to say big things. Go back and ask your team of officers for exercises and test manuals."

Zou Shuangwen is no longer very interested in teasing Dai Jidi's temper. After he apologized to Dai Ye, he approached the officers who were gathering around Tan Weiming and Ye Tao.

"Your Highness, will the Blood Qi Army really go to Yunzhou?" asked an officer. Compared with other troops, the Blood Qi Army, which has many children from aristocratic families serving in the army, is faster than any other army in terms of information, even the imperial guards. The Dai family in Yunzhou sent a group of women and children to Danyang to settle down. He also asked a Su Lao of the Dai family to implicitly imply that he hoped that Dongping would help Yunzhou to a greater extent when he met the king. Even providing military support, this news spread to the ears of some people in the Blood Qi Army almost the second day after it happened. Especially Chi Lei. His father was the Grand Marshal Chi Xianping, and his brother was the deputy commander of the imperial guards, and the king of the country.

When we were asking for various opinions on whether to send troops to Yunzhou, these two men participated in the imperial meeting as representatives of the military at the same time. Since the news reached the Blood Qi Army, the Blood Qi Army was looking forward to sending troops to Yunzhou. The Blood Qi Army was powerful, and the Blood Qi Army wanted to test through actual combat. How powerful the Blood Qi Army was? Compared to the previous battles in the Xunshan Relations Line, and when the Blood Qi Army was stunningly defending and fighting in Baishi City, how much the Blood Qi Army grew. If the Blood Qi Army attacked again, it could bring more victory, results and honor to each of them, that would be the most ideal thing.

Tan Weiming did not avoid the problem. He already knew clearly what the tension in Yunzhou was going on. Judging from the current situation, it is not enough to make Yunzhou return to peace. Yunzhou is definitely not able to continue to be independent. The ownership of Yunzhou will ultimately depend on the military struggle of the barbarian tribes on the northern grasslands. Tan Weiming nodded and said: "There is indeed this statement,"

But it hasn't been decided yet. After all, Yunzhou is not my Dongping territory. Many ministers in the court have various concerns about going out to fight. Moreover, although the Blood Qi army has expanded one after another, it is only 30,000 now. Judging from the current situation in Yunzhou, the Blood Qi army is probably a little overwhelmed. But except for the Blood Qi army, an army that does not belong to the Dongping War, who is nominally not part of the Dongping War, if you send other troops, you may have to risk the full war with Xiling and Beiliao."

Han Hanlin said confidently: "Although our Blood Qi Army has only 30,000 people, it is not comparable to other troops. We can treat us as a 100,000 man." Han Hanlin is a senior officer who joined the Blood Qi Army since its founding. Now he is the commander of the two battalions with a total of 6,000 long archers. He has a deep affection for the Blood Qi Army, so that his family is moving to let him enter the imperial guards or go to the important border town to serve as a guard. And his evaluation of the Blood Qi Army is actually the thoughts of many people in the Blood Qi Army.

Ye Tao smiled and said, "I'm not a little bit. I ask you, what's the specific military situation? Do you know? Just based on the words you know now. What's the use of fighting when fighting? What's the map? The detailed topographic map of Yunzhou is now only one-third of the area of ​​Yunzhou. Do you draw on the spot when fighting? What about the supply? Going out to fight, it's on the grassland that everyone is not familiar with. What about your supply plan? At least, the list of materials needed. What should you always have? ... Also, I'm surprised, Han Hanlin, you are not a war-ready officer. It seems that you want to leave behind when going out to fight? You don't have to turn to the war-ready officer with such skill."

Han Hanlin felt a little embarrassed. Although he was in charge of the two battalions' chiefs, the longblades could not act separately on the scale of the two battalions during combat, and they had to be divided into different combat directions. Although Han Hanlin had high authority in daily training and drills, he was not a general who could lead troops after entering the combat readiness state. Although the transition between the two only required a few procedures. But just the procedures of the children of these aristocratic families, it was not an easy job to ask the elders of the family to sign documents to agree to enter the combat sequence.

Han Hanlin was not angry. During the exercise of the Blood Qi Army, everyone has always regarded "information, maps, and supplies" as the most basic issues and attached great importance to it. Without these basic guarantees, no tactics have any foundation. Now, there is really a chance to fight. For these life-and-death issues, everyone will only take them more seriously. Although Ye Tao is not a member of the Blood Qi Army, he has no position in the inspection mansion of the two armies except for an ordnance technical consultation, everyone still regards Ye Tao as the Blood Qi Army.

An important member of the group, Han Hanlin answered confidently: "Don't worry, the war preparedness officer's documents will come down tomorrow. When I hear the news, I will be active. If you want to talk about military information, everyone is actively mobilizing various forces to collect... If you want to talk about supplies and logistics... We have also started to prepare. However, sir, can you return General Suo to the Blood Qi army? The Lu army has elite soldiers and strong generals under the command of the Lu army, but there is no Lu army in your workshop to coordinate with us. You can at least assign someone to help us coordinate the military production, right?"

The problem Han Hanlin mentioned was really critical. In the past, the Blood Qi Army needed equipment and parts and all kinds of strange small products, and they could find Suo Zheng or Lu Dan. They would naturally arrange targeted production of workshops to meet the requirements in the shortest possible time. When Suo Zheng was there, their daily supply was naturally indescribable. When Suo Zheng took care of all the logistics supply matters in the canal project and showed his strength, the Blood Qi Army felt the serious problem of lacking an experienced, courageous and talented logistics supervisor. What's more serious is that although Suo Zheng was training a group of logistics officers for the Blood Qi Army, Suo Zheng's cultivation adhered to the usual style of the Ye Workshop: to seize people and work under his own hands. Now there is no logistics supervisor type in the Blood Qi Army who can arrange the preparations for the war.

Ye Tao pondered for a moment and said, "I can let Suo Zheng return to the Blood Qi Army. After all, the affairs here are more important than the canal. But..." Ye Tao turned to Tan Weiming and said, "Your Highness, can you help transfer someone to temporarily take over the part of Suo Zheng's work now?"

Tan Weiming frowned and asked, "Who do you want?"

"Lin Chengze, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue." Ye Tao said. Lin Chengze was a young official focused on training by the Ministry of Revenue, and was also the first group of students who gave Tan Weixin economics lectures in his mansion. Although the logistics work in the canal is more like military affairs, and is different from Lin Chengze, who has been dealing with paperwork, it seems that Lin Chengze has some management experience beyond paperwork. Whether it is Lin Chengze's future future, the current project progress of the Canal Governor's Office, or just the actual needs of the Blood Qi Army to let Suo Zheng come back to take charge of logistics work.
