Chapter six hundred and thirteen: orderly inspection

The cold winter is approaching, and on the 21st of November, it is the capital. This is the first time Ye Chunqiu has spent the winter in the north, and he has never seen the snow in the north. Compared with the stinginess of the south, the heavy snow of the goose feathers floats down like a drifting tide with the strong wind. The trees outside the window are covered with snow, and the branches and leaves are icy. The snowflakes cover the ground layer after layer. Ye Chunqiu has a jacket, put on a cloak, and then stepped out of the room on the snow.

The weather was chilly, but Ye Chunqiu was still warm. Now the training of the new army has shown some atmosphere. More than a month of training has made these disciples no longer a group of young birds.

The matter of the practice can be roughly left to Wang Shouren. Today is different from usual. It is mainly because the new army has been practicing for some time, and the capital inspection at the end of the year, and the palace intends to inspect the guards, so the Minister of War Xie Qian was appointed to take charge of the leadership, and the officials of the Ministry of Personnel, the Imperial Horse Supervision, and the Censorate to inspect the battalions to observe the results.

The emperor was too concerned about this military affairs. Since the cabinet issued a special order, there was no objection, so Xie Qian began to inspect the personal guards. He just inspected the Warriors' Camp yesterday. Even Xie Qian praised the Warriors' Camp. The Warriors' Camp was originally an elite soldier selected from the guards. Even if they were recruiting from the outside, most of them were recruiting young and strong. In addition, they were sufficient food and salary and were properly trained. Zhang Yong was willing to work hard, so after the exercise, he almost had unanimous praise.

What we are going to inspect today is the new army of Zhenguo. Originally, Zhenguo New Army was not qualified to be inspected, but because the emperor specifically mentioned it in the will, the new army became Xie Qian's final inspection target.

Ye Chunqiu walked out of the door in the morning and rushed to the camp. Wang Shouren had arrived long ago. It would be a lie to say that he would not pay attention to this inspection. So Ye Chunqiu asked his disciples to eat early, and then waited at the school ground. After a while, someone came to report that Xie Gonghui and the officials arrived.

Ye Chunqiu and Wang Shouren cheered up and went to the gate to greet each other. Today, the situation has been quite large. In addition to Xie Qian, Zhang Yong also came in person. The head of the Ministry of Personnel came, and the Censorate came from Deng Jian.

Ye Chunqiu stepped forward and said, "The lower official Ye Chunqiu has met Mr. Xie." Wang Shouren also saluted together.

Xie Qian patted Ye Chunqiu on the shoulder with a little smile and said, "Ha... I'm anxious to wait, I'm anxious to wait, I'm just about to see the atmosphere of the new army."

Zhang Yong also smiled and said, "Our family is just about to see it under the reputation of the new army."

Ye Chunqiu met Zhang Yong. Zhang Yong changed his previous attitude and said with a smile: "No gift, no gift, no gift, we are just accompanying Mr. Xie to watch the fun."

Ye Chunqiu thought to himself, it’s almost the same thing you want to see a joke!

However, Ye Chunqiu was not sure whether his new army could be effective. However, Wang Shouren looked tired and seemed to have not slept well last night.

It's really hard for him.

He welcomed Xie Qian and others into the schoolyard. Xie Qian was most looking forward to inspecting the new army. He saw more than a hundred new army in a row from afar, and his impression seemed to be quite good.

So he walked into the awning near the schoolyard. Ye Chunqiu asked to take the charcoal basin. Xie Qian and Zhang Yong sat down one after another. Deng Jian was embarrassed to say hello to Ye Chunqiu, but he exchanged glances with Ye Chunqiu. As for the master of the Ministry of Personnel, Ye Chunqiu did not recognize him, but seeing that he kept holding his face, Ye Chunqiu did not greet him.

The clerk poured hot tea, Xie Qian drank the hot tea, and his whole body became warmer, and said to Ye Chunqiu: "I have been inspecting the camps in the past half month, especially the new soldiers of the guards who are to be tested. Among them, the Warriors Battalion is the best, but I don't know what your new army is."

Zhang Yong, who was standing beside him, said leisurely: "Mr. Xie Gong praised him. If those bastards knew, wouldn't they have to lift their tails to the sky?"

Xie Qian smiled and said, "Let's start."

Ye Chunqiu went to give an order, and the sound of gold sounded, and a hundred new recruits immediately became solemn, and they were lined up in an orderly manner, and then they began to stand in the military posture of physical refining.

Xie Qian nodded repeatedly when he saw it. Zhang Yong on the side couldn't help but feel a little suspicious. Ye Chunqiu really trained the new army? Look at this posture, it looks a bit like this.

Xie Qian smiled with relief. In the blink of an eye, the Beijing inspection was about to begin. Many conflicts that had covered up the year were about to break out. Ye Chunqiu's training here was the first time. It was already the focus of everyone's attention, but now he can finally test the results.

There are about a hundred scholars who maintain a solemn posture, without moving at all.

They seem much more agile than before. The training for more than a month is enough to transform them. Now such training is no longer a difficult task for them.

Time passes by bit by bit.

At first, Xie Qian was quite confident, but gradually became a little uneasy. He took a sip of tea, but looked at Zhang Yong beside him. Zhang Yong smiled and said, "Comrade Ye Xiu."

Ye Chunqiu said: "The lower official is here."

Zhang Yongren couldn't help laughing: "Uh, Zhenguo. Army training... is that?"

Ye Chunqiu and Wang Shouren, who was beside him, looked at each other. Yes, their performance was roughly like this.

Seeing the reactions of Ye Chunqiu and Wang Shouren in Zhang Yong's eyes, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Why don't you set up a formation to see? After practicing for more than a month, you just stood like this? We have never heard of it. Isn't this... a joke?"

His understatement was meaningful, and Xie Qian and Deng Jian's faces looked a little ugly.

In fact, they were also a little depressed, and it was still fresh at the beginning, but the new army just kept standing on the school ground. What kind of soldiers are they practicing? These days, they inspected each battalion, and some were powerful and powerful, and some were ever-changing in formations, such as plum blossom formation, one-character long snake, and swordsman and spearman constantly changing. People who saw it were not only dazzled, but also felt that this was a first-class elite soldier.

But... what if you do is this? Yesterday, I also saw the training of the Warriors Battalion recruits who had been practicing for more than a month, but they are much more elite than this one.

Zhang Yong couldn't help laughing in his heart, and said, "Okay, even if the new army has just started training, we can't be too arrogant. Since that's the case, let's take a look at it." While he said, he held up the teacup with a smile in his eyes, held his long nails and picked up the tea foam floating on it, and couldn't help laughing.

This irony is really obvious...

However, after being a clerk in the Imperial Horse Supervisor for so long, Zhang Yong is familiar with military affairs. He is familiar with how to train this army. He couldn't help but secretly look at Xie Qian. This Xie Gong, the minister of the Ministry of War, must have known a little about military affairs. He wants to see if this scholar Xie will be angry to death.
