Chapter 165 Final Examination

The malaria curse once appeared as a killing weapon in a certain incident that caused an uproar in the whole country at that time... But now, it was used by Han Zhongwei as the final assessment of them, which made the more than 2,200 applicants very distressed. Many people made careful preparations before registering, but now it seems that there is no use, and everything depends on real strength.

As a soldier in the age of cold weapons, the most important thing is the power of his arms. The reason is that today, no matter which army, the crossbow is the most important weapon. To be able to become an excellent archer, the strength of his arms is naturally their biggest factor. The size of the bow can be directly related to the combat effectiveness of the soldiers. As a bow and arrow, it is not only necessary to shoot accurately, but also to shoot steadily and shoot far away, and these are all related to the strength of the arm.

Originally, Han Zhongwei wanted to pull a bow and shoot archery directly, but later he thought that this method was difficult to intuitively reflect the real strength of each applicant. Because some people might have been able to shoot archers before this, while some people were only in the first contact. This is unfair to those who have been exposed to bows and arrows since the end. Push-ups, as a sports in later generations, were absolutely no one specifically exercised in this era, so push-ups can reflect the true level of these people fairly and intuitively.

The afternoon assessment was actually very simple. In the huge cement floor in the cement factory, more than 2,200 people participated in the assessment at the same time. Several guards first demonstrated them several times. As long as they were not blind, they could tell them about such movements. Soon, under the order of neatly, more than 2,000 people supported the ground with their palms and started to do them in a similar manner. There was basically no skill in push-ups, and Han Zhongwei did not require them to be side by side with their palms. In that case, he had to send hundreds of people to monitor them. Now the method is the most labor-saving way. Let them use it. Soon everyone found the trick and tried to support the double rear.

This is the last assessment set by Han Zhongwei. Among the more than 2,000 people, it depends on who can last the longest, and the one thousand people who persist until the end will become lucky.

"These people are actually very good. Bi Zaiyu has been with those applicants since noon. As an excellent general, he knows how to contact the subordinates he will lead in advance. In his eyes, he is qualified in height and weight, and can still run over twenty miles, which is really good.

Such a person, as long as he practices hard, he will definitely be an excellent soldier. Bi Ai met not only a good general, but also a soldier. When he saw a good soldier, he would feel itchy when he didn't let him lead. Just like now, he wished he could take all the people here.

"You think beautifully, but without trust, you won't stand. Don't you want me to be a trustless person? You should know that adding 1,000 new recruits at once can double the escort. This is not a good thing for the escort. Too many new recruits will probably affect the combat effectiveness of the escort. If there are more than 2,000 new recruits at a time, I'm really a little doubtful whether the escort can keep up with it." Han Zhongwei shook his head. No matter how good these people are, he can only use 1,000 people for the time being, and of course he will not let go of the remaining people. He will not let go of those who have not been able to hold on to cement. As long as those people are physically qualified and their physical fitness can be improved through strengthening training, the conscripts will still rely on them in half a year.

"What a pity, I'd let you recruit 3,000 people if I had known it." Bi Zai felt a great pity, but he quickly understood Han Zhongwei's idea, and he thought more deeply. There was a very shortage of middle and lower-level officers in the guard team. Although the hundreds from Yingzhou had been practicing for more than a month, there were no talent among them. Such an environment often made him unable to do so, and now he has almost doubled the number of new recruits, and he needs more middle and lower-level generals and generals, and he has a long way to go. If he can bring dozens of his classmates from martial arts, this problem can be calculated immediately. He won't have to watch them here and drool in vain.

In the afternoon push-up assessment, Wanyan Xun finally withstood the test. For a man who can be called an archer, long-term archery made his arms full of strength, and just a few hundred push-ups were nothing. Although he felt uncomfortable in the morning and was even injured accidentally, it was mainly a test of his lower limbs. When it comes to push-ups with his upper arm, he could easily pass the level, and even count the person who lay down at the end. Wanyan He was still in the fifty place. If he hadn't felt that it had been not long before he insisted on and stopped automatically, it would have been a problem to enter the top three with his strength. This assessment finally made him find his confidence and disappearing. He looked at the few "survivors" on the field with a gentle curl upwards.

In addition to Wanyan Xun, the original friends of Fulai Restaurant Wang Jing and He Liqi also successfully entered the top 1,000. They had been in the army before, but in terms of archery, they were not as good as Wanyan's mother, so they lay down a little earlier than him. Although they had already stood up at this time, their arms were like lead, and it was very difficult to raise their hands.

A thousand new recruits were generated on the spot after passing the final assessment, which left all those who signed up for the registration were all based on their strength. Although they were exhausted, they soon became cheerful because each of them received a new military uniform on the spot, and a reward of five stakes for the first month.

This made those who had not left the election look envious. They can get five stagnant a month and eat and live in the military camp. In the future, the families of these selected people will get better and better. Since the new guards selected this time are all Black City, Bi Zaiju gave them two days off after asking Han Zhongwei to take care of their family affairs and wait for three days later to return to the cement factory to receive training for new recruits.

Daxia Zhongxing Mansion, Yue Wang Mansion, Yue Wang Li Renyou's dormitory.

"Father, are you in good health?" Li An came to Li Renyou's house with a bowl of medicine, sat beside the bed, and served his father himself. For some reason, over the past few months, Li Renyou's body suddenly became worse and worse. At first, he felt a cold, but he had not been able to break the roots. Instead, it seemed to be getting heavier and heavier. Now it has reached the point where he needs to rest in bed, and he can only walk outdoors with the help of his servants for half an hour every day.

"I'm old, if I had been in the martial arts training ground ten years ago, I would have been sweating all over." Li Renyou sighed and said, "I'm old and I can't help but be in my body. He is now the commander of the Capture Army. But judging from this posture, it's unlikely that I'd even ride a horse with armor and riding a horse in my arms.

"The disease comes like a mountain falling, and the disease goes like a thread pulling. The father doesn't need to feel his mouth. After a few more days of rest, he will be able to reappear in the spirit of the dragon and tiger. Although Li An was worried, he did not show any expression on his face.

"I hope this is the case. Li Renyou took the medicine. He reached out to take the towel handed by Li An and wiped it on his mouth. In fact, the reason why his disease has not been cured for so long is that he himself knows a little bit of the reason. This is because of a person, his appearance disrupted his plan, and because of his appearance, everything is no longer under control. Because of his appearance, he almost shot himself in the foot. In the end, he was given a discount and was even named a marquis, and he could still live in the fief.

Needless to say, the one who caused King Li Renyou of Yue was Han Zhongwei. Of course, they didn't know the name Han Zhongwei in their eyes, but only knew Zhong Wei, a merchant from Song State. Because they successfully solved the problem of Xi Ji's concubine Pingzhangtian's military achievements, they were named Kehou of Heicheng by Li Chunyou, the county's wife, after successfully resolving the collective defeat of the recommendation of the two wives of Daxia.

Although the army of Heicheng was transferred away, almost making Heicheng an empty city, Han Zhongwei was awarded the honor of being able to return to the fiefdom in person. At the beginning, Li Renyou was not good at him. He was in a border town without heavy troops. Needless to say, facing the Iron Cavalry of Mongolia and Jin Kingdom, even several tribes in Heicheng and the bandits and horse thieves around Heicheng could make him overwhelmed. At that time, Li Renyou even thought about how long Zhong Wei could stay in Heicheng, but he didn't expect that he not only gained a firm foothold in Heicheng, but also had great potential. Even if he was in the capital, he had heard of Heicheng occasionally.

"By the way, how is that guy Zhong Wei? Heicheng has not made any trouble in his hands, right?" Li Renyou has been ill for more than two months and is not very clear about the news outside the mansion, let alone Heicheng, which is hundreds of miles away.

"Didn't Heicheng build a Buddha of Dingguang some time ago? The mansion also sent two people there, but there has been no reply yet." Li An said casually. When he heard that Zhong Wei became the Marquis of Heicheng, Li An was unhappy. Without thinking too much, he sent the nephew of the mansion's chief manager, Dai Deqiu and another guard to Heicheng. However, except for sending a few letters back at the beginning, there has been no news since then. More than ten days ago, he finally couldn't sit still, so he sent several people to Heicheng, but the information has not been sent back yet.

"I heard about this. It should be said that the little guy did a good job. Without this Dingguang Buddha, I am afraid that the Black City would probably become an empty city, and there will definitely be no more than 10,000 people." Li Renyou sighed and said. Since Zhong Wei came to the Yue Palace, he felt that this son was not a thing in the pool. As expected, in his eyes, the Black City, which was dead in his eyes, was actually a prosperous place by him, and everyone in the world knew it.

"Now the Black City is probably crowded with people, and crowds are everywhere." Li An said with a wry smile. He never thought that Zhong Wei would encounter such a great wealth in Daxia. He didn't know what Huang Ge thought. Not only did he grant a title but also granted a fief. The most incredible thing was that he also allowed him to return to his fief. This made Li An completely unacceptable and simply subverted his concept. "Zhong Wei is a very special person. Although he was suspected of using us in Zhongxing Mansion, you must not get into evil with him because of this. Maybe he will be your noble person in the future." Li Renyou knew that his son was still resistant to Zhong Wei. In fact, even if he could not accept this fact at the beginning, it was absolutely impossible to think about how much advantage he had taken. As a human being, he had to look at him for a long time. But for this period of time, Xian seemed to have been in trouble and could not activate himself.

"He is a purely profiteer and will not suffer any loss in anything he does. At that time, I shouldn't have led him to Daxia. Now that it's better, not only will our big affairs be ruined, but it also gives him great benefits. Li Ang said angrily. He has always been resentful of Zhong Wei. If it weren't for Zhong Wei's traits, the world would be completely different at this moment, so it would be difficult to make him forget the harm that Zhong Wei brought to him.

"Since you know that he is so smart, why did you attract him to Daxia?" Li Renyou was very dissatisfied with his son who had been trapped in the past. If he could not fight against others, he had to admit the gap between the two. Instead of having a strong opponent, it would be better to have a strong alliance. Although he couldn't figure it out at the beginning, he can now remain calm. If possible, he even wanted to win over Zhong Wei.

"At that time, I didn't like his cement, but Xiao Wu is a bad thing. That matter can be regarded as a wedding dress for him! It turned out that cement was the Weifu Army Division that supplies the Heicheng City. Now that Erqian has become his own door. Li Anjin's face was full of spoils. If he had known that the Liguijijizi was such a villain, he would not have attracted him to Daxia even if he beat him to death. It would have been like a wolf.

"I heard that cement seems ordinary, but it can be turned into solid stones when it encounters water. The Dingguang Buddha of Heicheng is made of cement. Otherwise, it would be impossible to complete such a large-scale construction in one month. Li Renyou had heard of the magic of cement for a long time. Some time ago, even Zhongxing Mansion was talking about the Dingguang Buddha of Heicheng everywhere. At that time, there was a news from Heicheng that it would be able to build a three-meter-high Dingguang Buddha in one month. Many people did not believe it, including Li Renyou, but later the Heicheng was completed as scheduled. Only then did everyone know that it was all the credit of cement.

"Cement is indeed magical, but unfortunately it cannot be used for me for the time being." Li An sighed.

"Didn't you have an agreement with him at the beginning? If cement is really that magical, then Xishui and Xiping are all in need. In the future, we can resist the Mongols and take advantage of the effects of heavy cement." Li Renyou remembered this, and the first time he heard that cement seemed to be the prince told him.

"Master, maybe I don't know that the monthly output of cement is not high, but it consumes a lot of consumption when used. It is still unknown whether the cement in Heicheng can be satisfied with its own use. With Zhong Wei's personality, how could he sell cement to others first?" Li Ann has now seen through Zhong Wei. Not only does this person never suffer a loss, but he can insert needles whenever he is in trouble. If he is not careful, he will take advantage of it.

"Mr. Dai, is there anything wrong? Li Renyou was about to speak when he saw Dai Deqiu, the head of the royal palace, standing outside the door, and occasionally poking his head.

"Prince, Prince, a letter of emergency came from Heicheng." The reason why Dai Deqiu was so anxious was because of this letter. The Heicheng incident made Dai Licheng a labor reform worker. He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. You must know that this was related to the safety of his nephew. He had no son and had long regarded Dai Licheng as his son.

"When Cao Cao was talking about Cao Cao, Cao Cao went to Li Renyou and said with a smile. He took the seal from Dai Deqiu's hand. After only a while, the smile on his face soon passed. In other words, he was solemn.

"Father, has something happened in Heicheng?" Li An said anxiously.

"You can take a look at it yourself." Li Renyou handed the secret letter to Li An and sighed.

"According to investigation, the manager Dai who was sent to Heicheng in the early stage, Meng Wei was missing. After many inquiries, he learned that he was detained in the gravel yard of the Heicheng Cement Factory to engage in coolie, but the charge was finally heard. In addition, the Heishan, Heishui and Yeli tribes of Heicheng surrendered because of the exercise of the Kehou Guard. At present, Heicheng is recruiting soldiers. Due to the favorable conditions, nearly 10,000 applicants were registered.

"It's too much to deceive others." Li An showed anger. If it weren't for the King of Yue here, he would have cursed. It was not because Zhong Wei recruited soldiers in Heicheng, nor because the three tribes surrendered to him. Instead, the people he sent were actually detained by him on false charges, and it was not enough that he actually let the managers and guards of the dignified royal palace be coolies? Who is Zhong Wei? Is he even bigger than the prince? Even in the royal palace, they don't have to be coolies.

"Safety, you need to be steady when encountering things. If you do this, I will be very worried in the future." Li Renyou looked at Li An's performance and was very worried. He was too impatient and it was difficult to achieve great things.

"Father, then Zhong Wei is really lawless. Let's not say that his friendship with me is still there. Even if he is neither a relative nor a friend, he is still from my dignified Prince Yue Mansion. How come he is closed, not even a official letter?" Li An was increasingly unable to see through Zhong Wei. This person is too bold. He is just a small marquis, with no roots or foundation in Daxia. Although Heicheng is his fiefdom, he has no support from the army, and no larger thief can stop him. Not to mention the army of other countries. Not only does he not establish a good relationship with the capital, he also ignores the existing American system! Can he stay in Heicheng for a long time?

"If I were Zhong Wei, I would do the same as him. You said you have a deep personal relationship with Zhong Wei, why didn't you contact him? Since you were doing a meticulous act, don't blame others for being unjust." Li Renyou snorted heavily, and he opposed it at that time, but the prince took action first and then reported him. If he followed his plan and went straight to see Zhong Wei, what could his little marquis do to take charge of the royal palace?

"King Jian, how can you speak for Zhong Wei?" Li An found that the King of Yue has been standing on Zhong Wei's side today, targeting him everywhere. Could it be that he is not his son, Zhong Wei? Of course, this idea just flashed through him and could not be true.

"I am right, not the right person. If you do it correctly, I will help you. Safety. You must always pay attention to your identity. When they went to Heicheng, I didn't know about it, otherwise I would definitely stop Li Renyou. Fortunately, he was just a minor illness. If he was really seriously ill, he really didn't dare to close his eyes casually.

"Do you really need to repair it with me, Zhong Wei?" Li Ang said.

"If you are willing to go to Heicheng, I believe you will definitely gain a lot." Li Renyou smiled and the prince seemed to have finally gotten enlightened.

"But my father, how dare I travel far? Li An looked at Li Renyou who was ill in bed and said worriedly. "Don't worry, even if I go, I will definitely be able to hold on for a year or two." Li Renyou was very happy for his son. If the prince could really reconcile his old friendship with Zhong Wei, it would be better than taking a few more medicines.
