In the next few days, Li Si took the Jing family class to run in the equipment, and Ying Zheng continued to join in the fun.
One day, Ying Zheng was accompanying Hu Yu to play with the imitation of "my weapon" when Zhao Gao walked up and said: "Your Majesty, Sima Jie sent someone to announce that Cao Liao from Yongcheng has returned to Xianyang. "
"Oh?" Ying Zheng summed it up briefly and said to Zhao Gao, "Go tell Sima Jie and ask him to take Cao Liao directly to Jingyao, and then go to Meng Mansion to call Meng Wu, and we will meet there. "
Zhao Gao responded and ran towards Wen Leiju.
Ying Zheng also got up and rushed to Jingyao, but unexpectedly Hu Yu wanted to follow him again this time.
When they arrived at Jing Kiln, Ying Zheng ordered Jing Fan to take out the ancient magic weapon "My Weapon" so that Cao Liao could observe it.
Hu Yu also brought his own imitation and placed it next to the original, carefully comparing the differences between the two.
In fact, the imitation made by Jingjia Ban is so realistic that it is difficult for a layman to tell which one is real and which one is fake based on its appearance.
What's more, the fake ones are pretty good too.
Not long after, Sima Jie took Cao Liao to Jing Kiln first.
After seeing the ceremony, the two people were brought to the front of the two magic soldiers by Ying Zheng.
"Let's take a look. This is the magic weapon I found - 'My Weapon'." Ying Zheng waved his hand and said.
Sima Jie looked at the magic weapon in front of him and looked suspicious: "Your Majesty, why are there two weapons here? Isn't there only one weapon?"
Although Sima Jie has never seen it, he has already heard that Ying Zheng brought back only one magic weapon.
Ying Zheng smiled and said: "There is indeed only one, isn't this another one created?"
Sima Jie looked at the two "weapons" on the table in surprise. He had also heard that it was very difficult to forge this magic weapon. Otherwise, why would he have spent so much time searching for minerals.
Cao Liao calmly sat down at the table and carefully looked at the two magic weapons in front of him.
Hu Yu also deliberately moved to the side to give Cao Liao some space. She heard Ying Zheng say that the rather bookish man in front of her was a descendant of the Guiguzi clan and knew how to study military formations.
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
Hu Yu respects this kind of people the most.
Ying Zheng felt that Cao Liao was looking intently, so he said, "I wonder if Mr. Cao Liao can tell which one is the real thing and which one is a fake?"
Upon hearing that Ying Zheng said that his one was a fake, Hu Yu raised his mouth but didn't say anything.
"Let me take a closer look." After saying that, Cao Liao took one of the two weapons in his hand, then turned it over and looked at it carefully.
Although Sima Jie didn't know much about weapons, he stepped forward and picked up another one, turning it over and over.
Looking at Sima Jie's appearance, Ying Zheng couldn't help but feel a little funny.
Not long after, the two men exchanged weapons with each other and looked at each other for a while.
I saw Cao Liao tapping with his fingers more professionally, then picking up the two magic weapons and weighing them one by one.
Finally, Cao Liao asked for a bowl of water, and then put a drop on each of the two magic weapons.
Cao Liao tilted the two magic weapons and saw the drop of water on one of them slide down quickly and fall to the ground.
Cao Liao grabbed this magic weapon and handed it to Ying Zheng: "Your Majesty, this one is genuine."
Ying Zheng couldn't tell which one was true, so he looked at Li Si and asked Li Si for his opinion.
Li Si nodded slightly, indicating that this one was indeed the real one.
Ying Zheng smiled at Cao Liao and said, "Mr. Cao does have some tricks, but I don't know how to distinguish them?"
Choosing one of the two has a high chance of getting it right. Ying Zheng wants to know if he really knows the difference.
Cao Liao held up the magic weapon in his hand and said: "Back to the king, although the weight of this one is slightly lighter, the texture is even and dense, the edge is smooth and flat, and the surface seems to be very smooth. Sure enough, it is dripping down. I tried it with just a drop of water."
A few words reveal countless vital points.
Ying Zheng nodded lightly and said, "I don't know, sir, can you
Enough to have fun? "
Sima Jie didn't expect that Ying Zheng would let Cao Liao test his kung fu, and looked at Cao Liao in embarrassment.
Cao Liao smiled slightly and said, "Then I'll give it a try. Your Majesty, don't make me laugh."
After that, Cao Liao took "my utensil" and walked outside.
Everyone followed behind, wanting to see the excitement.
At this time, Meng Wu and the Meng brothers also arrived at Jingyao.
After greeting each other, Cao Liao came to the open space in the middle, formed a posture, turned his arms and waved "my weapon".
At first, it seemed that he was getting familiar with the feel of his hand, and then, Cao Liao turned around and waved the magic weapon gracefully.
Everyone can see that Cao Liao's Kung Fu foundation is really excellent, his steps are strong and solid, his body skills are fast and agile, the magic weapon in his hand is like a dragon entering the sea, and the silver light dances in the air, making people dazzled.
Forward thrust, back block, left hook, right stroke, the usefulness of this magic weapon is basically displayed one by one, but it is more than a little more subtle than Li Xin's previous brutal charge.
Everyone stayed there.
This guy even said he was just giving it a try, but he clearly has a unique skill passed down from his family!
Cao Liao seemed to want to save some energy. He danced for a while and then stopped. He carried the magic weapon back to Ying Zheng, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I have made a fool of myself."
Ying Zheng finally came to his senses and praised: "Sir, what a skill!"
Meng Wu also praised: "What a handsome kung fu!"
Sima Jie asked in confusion: "Is this really the first time Brother Cao has seen this magic weapon?"
Cao Liao smiled and said, "Of course it's the first time I've met you. How dare you deceive the king when he's here?"
"Sure enough, the reputation is well-deserved." Ying Zheng said, "Sir, you dance this magic weapon to perfection, but I wonder if you can create a special formation for this magic weapon?"
Cao Liao cupped his hands and said, "I have to give it a try. I don't dare to be arbitrary."
"What kind of trial method?" Ying Zheng asked.
"Back to the king, I will draw up several tactics based on the characteristics of this magical weapon, and then summarize a unique formation from these tactics." Cao Liao said, "Then, wait for this magical weapon Once it is used skillfully enough, the soldiers will try to use it as a whole, and if there are any shortcomings, they will be corrected."
Ying Zheng looked at Meng Wu, as if asking for advice.
Meng Wu, who had been doubtful before, no longer had any doubts after seeing Cao Liao using "my weapon". He admittedly said: "Mr. Cao is really a great talent. Meng Wu admires him. As for this special formation, it's still... I hope we will take it seriously and realize the King’s wish as soon as possible.”
"Yes." Ying Zheng said, "If you really know how to create your own formations, it will be a great achievement. I will order you to train the new army with full authority. If you can train the new army properly in a short period of time, then you will be the new army." The commander-in-chief and the post of Si Guowei."
"Guowei?" Meng Wu asked in shock.
Although the rank of a lieutenant is lower than that of a general, it is slightly faster to directly promote a guest minister.
Ying Zheng looked at Meng Wu and said: "General Meng, there is no need to panic. This captain is responsible for the future establishment of our army. Besides, if there is no reasonable military rank, how can we cooperate with General Meng."
Meng Wu smiled and said: "The king is right."
Meng Tian said from the side: "Father, what the king said is that if you can successfully create your own formation, you will be considered worthy of merit. If Cao Liao wants to be a national captain, he still needs his father's full cooperation."
Yes, this new army using "my weapons" are all the elites of the Meng family army selected by Meng Wu. If Meng Wu deliberately made things difficult, it would be difficult for even ten Cao Liao to succeed.
What Meng Tian meant on the surface was to explain that it would be difficult for Cao Liao to become a national captain, but in reality, he was trying to persuade Meng Wu to cooperate fully.
Although Meng Wu's thinking is a bit conservative, he still understands the general situation and contributes to Ying Zheng and Da Qin, even if it cannot be done, he will do it.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the Meng family will fully cooperate with Mr. Cao to create a new army formation." Meng Wu said resolutely.
Ying Zheng was extremely happy when he saw Meng Wu's change of attitude: "Then I am looking forward to the cooperation of you two."
"The Meng family will definitely live up to the king's order." Meng Wu cupped his hands and said.
This sentence includes the brothers Meng Tian and Meng Yi.
"I will do my best." Cao Liao also said with his hand.
"Hahaha..." Ying Zheng grinned from ear to ear happily, "Okay, okay!"
Li Si used the topic to ask: "A few days ago, General Meng said that he would personally select 'our soldiers'. How is the progress?"
Meng Wu said: "After many layers of screening, half of the candidates have been selected. They have been brought to Jing Kiln today and are now waiting outside the door."
Ying Zheng said happily: "Since we brought it, let them come in. It will also let them see what this magic weapon looks like."
"Your Majesty, wait a moment." Meng Wu turned his head and pointed at Meng Tian outside the door.
Meng Tian hurried out and looked for those elite soldiers to come in.
Not long after, more than fifty fine-armored soldiers followed Meng Tian into the gate. They were neat and orderly, and even their sizes seemed to be about the same. They all looked at Ying Zheng in high spirits, with great momentum and high fighting spirit.
In this situation, as a leader, Ying Zheng seemed to have to say something.
Ying Zheng strode forward, stood in front of the elite soldiers of the Meng family, and said loudly: "Soldiers, after being selected by General Meng Wu, you are finally standing here!"
The elite soldiers of the Meng family all looked at Ying Zheng.
"I know that you are all the elites of the Meng family army, outstanding soldiers, the most outstanding men in the Qin Dynasty, and the backbone of the country!" Ying Zheng said with great emotion.
The elite soldiers were so praised by the King of Qin that they became even more excited. Their leopard eyes were wide open and their gazes were as bright as fire.
"I believe that you have all heard that I accidentally obtained an ancient magic weapon called 'my weapon', and now it is placed in front of you." Ying Zheng pointed to the "my weapon" next to him.
Meng Tian cooperated and raised "my weapon" high.
"This magical weapon, after tests and drills, is undoubtedly the king of weapons! Anyone who uses this magical weapon can defeat one against ten, and behead the enemy in a matter of seconds."
"The reason why I see you here is because I am making this kind of magic weapon in Jing Kiln, and you are the first batch of users and the backbone of the new army in the future! The future of Great Qin lies in your hands! "
The elite soldiers were all gearing up and eager to give it a try, as if they had been given a shot of blood.
"I will call this new army 'our army', and you will be called 'our soldiers'. The weapons you are equipped with are all these ancient magic weapons - 'my weapons'!"
The soldiers could no longer hold back the blood boiling in their hearts.
"I hereby promise that in the future, the new army's military salary will be double that of ordinary sergeants, and the merits of the new army can be directly promoted to two levels. My only condition is that the number of enemies killed by the new army must be three times that of ordinary sergeants. Times!"
"Is it difficult?"
"No!" All the soldiers said in unison, the sound was deafening, as if the sound was about to break through the sky.
"Okay!" Ying Zheng also said excitedly, "To achieve this, you must practice hard and not slack off. The hard work must be twice that of ordinary sergeants."
"No problem!" The shout was still loud.
"Your daily training is still conducted by General Meng Wu." Ying Zheng said, "And the unique formation method of using 'my weapon' was created by Cao Liao."
Ying Zheng waved his hand to Cao Liao.
Cao Liao walked out of the crowd and stood beside Ying Zheng.
Ying Zheng pulled Cao Liao and said: "I announce that this Cao Liao will be the captain of the new army in the future. When the formation is completed, he will be promoted to the state captain. From now on, everyone will call him Wei Liao. Remember?"
"Remember!" the soldiers shouted in unison.
Ying Zheng changed Cao Liao's name according to his official position, firstly to make it easier for him to manage the soldiers, and secondly because he didn't want Lao Ai to notice.
"Okay!" Ying Zheng said loudly, "The big deal has been decided, now let's watch 'my weapon' being hammered out."
Everyone agreed in unison and rushed to the backyard in an orderly manner.
