Duan Zhixuan knew that it was not appropriate to touch Qiu Xinggong at the moment. As Li Er was the emperor, he naturally knew this too.
And out of personal emotions, Li Er didn't want to touch Qiu Xinggong!
In the fourth year of Wude, Qiu Xinggong followed Li Er to attack Wang Shichong and fought a decisive battle with Wang Shichong's army at Mang Mountain. Before the battle, Qiu Xinggong followed Li Er to test the enemy's strength and led dozens of cavalry into the enemy's formation. They were unstoppable and killed many enemy troops.
Soon, Li Er and the cavalry were separated due to the long embankment. Only Qiu Xinggong followed Li Er. Afterwards, several enemy cavalrymen came after them, and a stray arrow hit Li Er's horse. The situation was extremely critical. Qiu Xinggong turned his horse back and shot at the chasing enemy. The arrows were all fired, and the enemy did not dare to move forward.
So Qiu Xinggong dismounted and pulled out the arrow that was hit by Li Er's horse. Then he gave his horse to Li Er. He walked in front of the horse, holding a long knife in his hand, shouting loudly, intimidating the enemy formation, and killed several people in a row. The enemy troops protected Li Er from breaking through the encirclement and returned to the Tang Army's camp. In the end, the Tang army defeated Wang Shichong.
It was precisely because of that battle that Li Er began to really use Qiu Xinggong! Li Er worked as a knight-errant in the Taiyuan area in his early years, and he had a sense of the rivers and lakes in him. He knew very well the principle of repaying a life-saving favor with a spring of water. Although he later became the King of Qin and even the emperor, he still had the aura of the rivers and lakes in him. He gradually restrained himself, but Li Er never treated those people badly who saved Li Er's life on the battlefield!
Like Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Duan Zhixuan, Yuchi Jingde and others, which one of them is not holding an important position or a prominent official position now? Qiu Xinggong is no exception!
Therefore, Li Er was reluctant to punish Qiu Xinggong unless he had to. In fact, what Qiu Xinggong committed this time touched his bottom line. The Xuanjia Army was the key to the victory of the national war, and this national war War is the key to the future survival of the Tang Dynasty. Li Er will not allow anyone to destroy it!
Thirty military sticks were Li Er's warning to Qiu Xinggong. If Qiu Xinggong still ignored the importance and insisted on going his own way, then no one could be sure whether Li Er would cut off the tumor for the Xuanjia Army on the battlefield!
"...Keep a line from your shoulders to your ankles, place your arms on your chest, with your hands slightly wider than your shoulders, and then use your arms to lift your body up from the ground. During the whole process, your shoulders, buttocks and ankles, Always keep a straight line, like I am now..."
At the Xuanjia Military Academy Ground, Li Zexuan is doing push-up training with the sergeants of the C-shaped battalion. The D-shaped battalion and the E-shaped battalion are now doing pull-ups. Because the number of horizontal bars in the army is limited, each battalion needs to "Staggered peak" training.
Since the entire C-zi camp had never been exposed to this training method before, Li Zexuan had to teach step by step all over again. He had done the same thing before in A-zi camp, D-zi camp and E-zi camp, but who made this C-zi camp Are you a new member of the "New Training Code Camp"?
"If you move up and down like this once, it will be counted as one push-up. If you do one hundred push-ups, you will be considered qualified. If you can't do one hundred today, you will add as many push-ups as you are missing tomorrow. After five days, if there are still people If you fail to meet this condition, you are not qualified to stay in the Xuanjia Army! Do you understand?"
After Li Zexuan demonstrated it to everyone, he stood up and said to them.
"I understand!"
Everyone was shocked, and then they realized that this newly appointed captain was not an easy character to deal with. At least in terms of training, Li Zexuan was much stricter than the original Zhang Kangnian!
But today, Duan Zhixuan just punished so many people on the general stage, and eleven people will be beheaded at 3:00 noon today. At this time, even if they are dissatisfied with Li Zexuan's "tyranny", no one dares to speak out. After all, Everyone can see that Li Zexuan's status in the Xuanjia Army is now second only to Qiu Xinggong, or even higher than Qiu Xinggong!
"Okay! Next, we will use the fire as a unit and two people as a team to supervise each other. The fire chief will make statistics on the training status of the soldiers under the fire and report it to the team leader. The team leader will report it to the deputy general in the camp. The deputy general and I will inspect at any time. If anyone is found to have concealed or made a false report, the fire chief and team leader will each be punished with two hundred push-ups!"
Li Zexuan stood with his hands behind his back, looked at the sergeants of the C battalion in front of him, and said loudly.
Logically speaking, these one hundred push-ups should not be difficult for the strong Xuan Jiajun. When Wuzi Camp first started doing push-ups and pull-ups training, there were only a few push-ups on the first day. Several people failed to pass, but all passed the next day. The overall quality of the soldiers of the C-shaped battalion was no worse than that of the W-shaped battalion, so there would be no problems.
"Here~!"
The soldiers agreed with a loud voice, then dispersed to train in groups.
"Gaogong, have you memorized the key points of push-ups?"
Li Zexuan walked towards a tall sergeant at this time and said.
This man is more than six feet tall (about 1.89 meters tall), and his weight is unknown, but judging from his size, he should weigh at least nearly 200 kilograms. This big guy is the deputy general of the C-shaped battalion, named Gao Gong , Li Zexuan didn't know if this guy was in the same group as Zhang Kangnian and Qiu Xinggong. He planned to test the deputy general today, and then during lunch, he would inquire about this person from Sun Zhiping.
"Come back to the school captain, I've written it all down!"
Gao Gong scratched his head and responded.
"Okay! Let's do a hundred push-ups first!"
Li Zexuan said lightly.
"Okay! Then when you join the army, please help me see if my actions are standard!"
Gao Gong responded, and then he lay down neatly on the lawn in front of him. He supported his body with his hands and pointed his toes on the ground. He began to do push-ups, and he counted while doing them:
"One, two, three, four, five..."
In addition to Li Zexuan correcting his movements at first, Gao Gong was very fast at doing push-ups later. He did thirty push-ups in a short time, and this guy did more than thirty push-ups without gasping for breath. , which shows how good this guy’s physical fitness is! No wonder he became the deputy general of the C-shaped battalion!
Oh, no, in terms of force value, this big guy is totally awesome [Shuquge quge.xyz] Zhang Kangnian, logically speaking, the previous leader of the C-shaped camp should be a high-ranking general!
Li Zexuan thought secretly in his heart.
"Ninety-five, ninety-six, ninety-seven, ninety-eight, ninety-nine, one hundred! Captain, I've finished one hundred push-ups!"
Li Zexuan was so lost in thought that Gao Gong completed one hundred push-ups. Calculated in modern time, the total amount of this time is just over a minute. In other words, it only takes about the same amount of time for this guy to do one push-up. one second! And more importantly, one hundred push-ups is obviously not the limit of high skill. According to her method, five or six hundred push-ups will not be a problem!
This guy's physical fitness is really good!
"Good! Good work!"
Li Zexuan smiled and expressed sincere appreciation.
Gao Gong scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "Colonel, you are joking. I am a brute force. In terms of kung fu, how can I compare to you, Colonel?"
His words were not meant to flatter or flatter Li Zexuan. He himself was not a person who liked to flatter others. In fact, when it came to martial arts, he really could not compare with Li Zexuan, who was a famous teacher. After all, Li Zexuan had experienced the system in martial arts. The training was guided by famous teachers, but he just had brute strength and just fumbled around on his own!
In fact, situations like his are common in the military, and even account for the vast majority. After all, not everyone can join a famous sect like Li Zexuan, and have famous teachers to guide them. Most people are just groping blindly. Those who have come here, this kind of cultivation method is destined to fail them to reach the highest level in martial arts!
Martial arts, to put it simply, is nothing more than techniques for exerting force, but to put it more complicated, it also includes changes in moves, predictions, restraint, and the way internal force operates in the meridians, etc.! Without the guidance of a famous teacher, it is difficult to master these things through personal exploration! This is why most of the Xuanjia Army are warriors at the Body Forging Realm and Qi Entrainment Realm. The Qi Transformation Realm is already considered a master in the Xuanjia Army. As for the Grandmaster Realm, the entire Tang Army can count them with two hands. Come here!
"Okay! Without further ado, you will be responsible for supervising the training of the soldiers. Report any situation to me at any time. After all, I am also a member of the army and have to patrol other battalions!"
Li Zexuan waved his hand and ordered Gao Gong.
As he said, he is not only the captain of the Bingzi Camp, but also a member of the Xuanjia Army. It is certainly impossible for him to spend all his time here in the Bingzi Camp. What's more, he had just arrived at Camp C and was not familiar with the soldiers in the camp. It would be much easier for him if there was a "native" from Camp C to help him!
"Yes! Captain!"
Gao Gong did not hesitate and immediately responded with cupped fists.
"Well! Go ahead and train them hard!"
Li Zexuan waved his hand, and Gao Gong took the order and left.
"Xu Dashan, what are you doing with your butt so high? Do you want me to help you kick it down?"
"Fat Zheng, your belly is touching the ground, why don't you stop it soon!"
"Niu Daliang, can't you push this shoulder down? Do you want me to help you push it down? What you did just now doesn't count, you have to start over!"
Just as Li Zexuan expected, with the help of Gao Gong, a "native" of Camp C, the soldiers quickly mastered the essentials of push-ups. It can be seen that Gao Gong patrols very seriously and teaches very hard. He is a good helper!
Li Zexuan planned to go and inquire about this big guy's daily behavior and temperament when he was free at noon. If there were no obvious bad deeds, then he planned to reuse this big guy during this period!
Seeing that Camp B was training in an orderly manner, Li Zexuan left with peace of mind and walked towards Camp W. After all, Camp W would compete with Camp B in eight days, and he had to go check on the progress of the training!
Although such a big thing happened last night, it did not affect the competition between the two camps at all!
…………………………………………
"Dang Dang Dang~!"
At noon, the soldiers finished their morning training. Logically speaking, they should go to the kitchen to eat, but today was a little different.
"The general has ordered that all officers and soldiers must assemble at the school grounds!"
"The general has ordered that all officers and soldiers must assemble at the school grounds!"
Several sergeants rode war horses and shuttled through each camp, shouting loudly.
The soldiers didn't know why, but under the leadership of the commanders of each battalion, they gathered in front of the generals' stage in the center of the school field.
After everyone arrived and the team was organized, Duan Zhixuan stepped onto the general ordering platform, but the bright yellow silk brocade in his hand was particularly dazzling and eye-catching, and many people noticed it!
Qiu Xinggong also noticed it, and he couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in his heart. He had seen "big scenes" and knew that what Duan Zhixuan was holding was an imperial edict!
"Your Majesty has a decree!"
After Duan Zhixuan ordered the platform to stand, he directly spread out the imperial edict and said.
"Crash!"
In an instant, all the 5,000 Xuanjia soldiers under the stage knelt down on one knee. This was the etiquette in the army to welcome the imperial edict, including Qiu Xinggong, who also knelt down at this time.
Duan Zhixuan then continued to read: "The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty issued an edict that Zhang Kangnian, Bai Shanhai and other eleven people should be executed for conspiring to mutiny and committing crimes that cannot be punished. Qiu Xinggong, the general of Xuanjia Army, was not strict with his subordinates and was guilty of negligence. He received thirty sticks as a punishment: Li Zexuan, Marquis of Yong'an, had merit in formulating the new code of conduct and was well-organized in the army. He was ordered to concurrently serve as the captain of the B-zi battalion of the Xuanjia Army. All the officers and soldiers of the B-zi battalion obeyed his orders and were not allowed to do so. Disobedience!"
The content of the imperial edict is very short and straightforward. It is completely different from the previous imperial edict issued by Li Er to the ministers. The content is a bit too straightforward! In fact, this is a common practice in the military, and everyone is used to it! Because most of the military members are rough men, if the content of the imperial edict is elaborate, no one will be able to understand it. This simple and straightforward one is best!
However, after Duan Zhixuan read the imperial edict, everyone on the school grounds was shocked, not because Li Er wanted to kill Zhang Kangnian, Bai Shanhai and others, nor because Li Er officially appointed Li Zexuan to join the Xuanjia Army, but because Qiu Xinggong actually I was punished for this!
Of course, Qiu Xinggong cannot be beaten with thirty military sticks. After all, he is also a master of martial arts. But how senior is Qiu Xinggong in the Xuanjia Army, and now he is actually being beaten with a military stick? Wouldn't this make him lose face in front of the soldiers?
It can be said that the symbolic meaning behind these thirty military sticks is completely greater than the actual meaning!
"If you are not strict with your subordinates, you are guilty of negligence..."
Qiu Xinggong was also a little confused at this moment. He subconsciously guessed that Li Er already knew that he was behind what happened last night. But when he thought about it carefully, he found that it was wrong, because if Li Er had known about it, he would not only be punished. It was these thirty soldiers who sent people to arrest him directly!
So these thirty military sticks are more like Li Er's warning to him!
At this moment, Qiu Xinggong felt awe-inspiring and full of vigilance. He couldn't help but secretly regret that he had listened to that idiot Zhang Kangnian's words!
"My lord, Qiu Xinggong is willing to accept the punishment!"
Qiu Xinggong saluted in the direction of the palace, then stood up and cupped his hands.
Although it is embarrassing to be beaten with a military stick, at this time, it is better to lose face than lose your life!
"Excuse me, I will wrong you!"
Duan Zhixuan put away the imperial edict, walked over and patted Qiu Xinggong's shoulder, and then ordered the guards on his left and right: "Come here, help General Qiu to torture!"
