The soldiers who were still playing immediately ran towards the surrounding barracks, and people ran out of the barracks one after another! Standing on the high platform, Emperor Wanli watched with great interest as more and more people gathered in the middle of the playground, while Zhang Jia pinched his fingers and kept counting with his lips moving! This scene even attracted the attention of the guards around Emperor Wanli! This is a point of force. I haven’t seen this scene in many years!
Before the three-tom drums were finished, two square formations, one large and one small, were already lined up on the playground. The big square formation is the people brought by Liu Haojia, and the small square formation is the military police stationed here!
When Liu Haojia saw that the soldiers were already standing, he smiled and said, "Zhang Banban, how many did you count?"
Zhang Jia immediately said: "Four hundred and ninety-three!"
Emperor Wanli had no reaction when he said this, because he had no impression of the emergency gathering. But the guards behind him are all smart! In their impression, no one in the capital could assemble so quickly! Let alone more than 400 numbers, even if they can complete 1,400 numbers, they are looking up to them!
Emperor Wanli looked at Zhang Jia, who was expressionless, because Zhang Jia didn't know what it meant to gather more than a thousand people in such a short period of time? So he turned his head to the guard behind him and said to a man who clearly looked like a leader: "Old Zhang, tell me, is this emergency gathering fast or slow?"
Guard Zhang took a step forward, glanced at Liu Haojia with a complicated expression before bowing and saying, "Back to my Lord Long Live, judging from this speed, I'm afraid the only one in the world who can compare with it is the Qi Family Army!"
As soon as he said these words, Emperor Wanli immediately understood how elite these soldiers in front of him were! Because the best way to praise soldiers at that time was "Just like Qi Jiajun!"
After the Japanese pirates were wiped out, the civilian officials immediately transferred Qi Jiguang and Qi's army to the north and incorporated them into the border army.
When Qi Jiguang first arrived in the north, he was not welcomed by the border troops. Because in the eyes of the border troops, only the Japanese are the most difficult to deal with in the world. As for the Japanese, they have never seen them, and they don't think much of them! Therefore, they did not show the proper welcome attitude towards Qi Jiajun.
But just when Qi Jiguang was ordering his troops, it suddenly rained heavily! The border troops ran back to the camp to take shelter from the rain, but the soldiers of the Qi Army stayed motionless in the rain for most of an hour, until the heavy rain stopped! This suddenly shocked the border troops! From then on, the news spread that the Qi family's army was unrivaled in the world!
But Liu Haojia didn't feel happy or proud when he heard what the guards said! Because in his opinion, Qi's army is definitely not as well-trained as his own soldiers!
He does not think so to belittle Qi Jiguang and Qi Jiajun, but because no matter how talented Qi Jiguang is, he cannot compare with the development of later generations over hundreds of years, and the experience gained after scientific summary! Not to mention anything else, just in terms of emergency gatherings and queues, he can beat the Qi Jiajun!
When the Qi family army advanced towards the enemy, they had to pause and organize their queues every twenty steps, but Liu Haojia dared to say that his soldiers were absolutely unnecessary! Read the book
However, he did not express his thoughts. Instead, he turned around and said, "Long live my lord, when you look at this square formation from the high platform, you can only see its orderliness, but you can't see anything else! If you want to have an intuitive view of my army, If you don’t understand, please step down from the stage and walk around the phalanx!”
Emperor Wanli was very interested when he heard this. He led everyone directly off the high platform and ran towards the phalanx. At first he didn't notice anything, but when he got closer to the phalanx, he realized that these soldiers were standing there motionless, even their body postures were exactly the same!
All of their heels were together and their toes were spread apart. From the heels to the top of their heads, they were as straight as a javelin! In particular, the right hand is slightly stretched forward to hold the firecrackers. The row of firecrackers looks like a line whether viewed from the front or the side!
But what surprised Emperor Wanli was yet to come! As he walked forward along the side of the team, he couldn't help but say "Huh?"! Then he took two steps forward, then two steps back, and lingered in place for a long time!
Zhang Jia originally thought that Emperor Wanli had discovered something, but he followed Emperor Wanli's gaze and said "Ah!" in surprise! And the guards behind them simply started whispering
Let’s talk!
The reason for their surprise was simple, because when they walked from the front to the side, from this angle they could see all the soldiers in the entire phalanx, no matter it was horizontal or vertical, it was a straight line! In particular, the movements and postures of the soldiers on each line were consistent, as if they were cut out of the same mold. This made them deeply aware that the soldiers in front of them were not the elite, but the elite among the elite!
After seeing this situation, Emperor Wanli became very excited and walked around the phalanx again and again, constantly marveling at it! He even stretched out his hand and waved it in front of a soldier's face. As a result, the soldier didn't even blink, as if the person was not in front of him! This made Emperor Wanli even more convinced that the soldiers in front of him were indeed elite!
But Liu Haojia left them with more shocks! When they returned to the high platform, Liu Haojia waved the flag and performed the team's march, formation, goose step and square formation combination! What he saw in front of him made Emperor Wanli completely excited. He almost jumped up and down on the general stage, shouting repeatedly: "Strong army! Strong army! No. 1 in the world!"
After the entire queue had finished performing, Emperor Wanli still hadn't calmed down from his excitement! His face turned red and he said directly to Liu Haojia: "Liu Aiqing is indeed capable of training troops! These troops are indeed the strongest in the world. I'm afraid no army can match them!"
Liu Haojia was naturally overjoyed when he heard this and bowed and said, "Thank you so much for the compliment! I will definitely train more elite soldiers in the future!"
Just when he finished speaking, someone behind Emperor Wanli said angrily: "Long live Lord, these soldiers and horses are for fighting, not for walking! If walking can kill the enemy, there will be no one in the world." What an enemy!"
Liu Haojia looked up and found that the person speaking was the guard surnamed Zhang whom Emperor Wanli had just questioned. Liu Haojia knew that his identity might not be as simple as just a bodyguard, because when he spoke to Emperor Wanli, he called himself minister. Only high-ranking officials dared to call themselves such!
However, Liu Haojia was not prepared to treat him politely, because he came here to show his results in front of Emperor Wanli, and anyone who belittled him would be hit by him! Especially the palace guards are the best stepping stones!
