Liu Haojia immediately called an officer to hand him the wooden sign, and said at the same time: "Tell them to gather immediately and rush to the school field! From the moment you step down from the general platform, I will start timing!"
Then he loudly said to the officials: "I wonder which of your lords sent someone to follow the person who sent the order to check?"
At this time, he saw Zhang Juzheng actually nodded to a person behind him! Then the man walked quickly to the corner table and made a gesture! It seems that someone below is waiting for his order!
When this person came back, Liu Haojia discovered that the bun on this man's chest was actually a second-grade military attache's bun! After seeing Buzi, Liu Haojia's heart was moved! Looking at this person's face again, I saw that this person has a thin face and a short beard! The bridge of the nose is straight and the lips are pressed into a straight line! Especially his bright eyes!
Look at him walking around with his hands on his belt, his steps are steady and his upper body is not moving! The hands holding the jade belt have thick joints and protruding muscles! At first glance, he looks like a man with superb martial arts skills!
So Liu Haojia guessed that this person must be the famous Qi Jiguang! At the same time, he also wanted to know why Zhang Juzheng took the initiative to postpone his participation. He probably wanted to wait for Qi Jiguang's return! Let him give a true evaluation of the New Army! After all, several of their cabinet ministers are civil servants and don’t understand martial arts at all. They can only watch the exercise for fun!
Thinking of this, Liu Haojia stepped forward and cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, Liu Haojia, may I ask if this gentleman is Marshal Qi?"
As soon as Liu Haojia spoke, everyone turned their attention! The man in front of him was obviously hesitant under the gaze of many people, but he still returned the courtesy and said: "Don't dare! The official's surname is indeed Qi!"
At this time, I heard Zhang Juzheng say: "Marquis Wu Ning, this is Mr. Qi Jiguang Qi! Would you mind if he comes to observe the new army you have trained?"
Liu Haojia immediately said loudly: "Of course I don't mind! Xiaguan is really hoping that Mr. Qi will give you more advice! Compared with Mr. Qi, Xiaguan is far behind!"
Qi Jiguang hurriedly said: "Where, where! All the subordinates have heard of the battles in which Mr. Hou suppressed the bandits! It was very exciting!"
Liu Haojia and Qi Jiguang began to compliment each other, and Liu Haojia was really happy to see Qi Jiguang! Because no matter at any time, Qi Jiguang has made significant contributions to China, and he has naturally been yearning for it for a long time!
Especially since he had long wanted to meet a historical celebrity like Qi Jiguang, but because they were too far apart and didn't have an introducer, he didn't get in touch! And the most important point is that everyone knows that Qi Jiguang is Zhang Juzheng's man. If Liu Haojia contacts him privately, Zhang Juzheng may misunderstand that he is here to poach someone! Moreover, what Zhang Juzheng said before introducing Qi Jiguang just now also told Liu Haojia, don't make any plans in this regard! So the two people didn't meet until today!
As for Qi Jiguang himself, who was born as a warrior, he naturally had a similar fondness for Liu Haojia, who was also born as a warrior and had some achievements! So I respect Liu Haojia a lot! But if you rely on this to expect Qi Jiguang to tell lies, that's impossible! Qi Jiguang also has his own pride, especially in martial arts, and he is unwilling to cheat!
After Liu Haojia and Qi Jiguang complimented each other, they naturally talked about some battle cases! Although the two people's voices were low, the way they gestured was very eye-catching! But both of them talked about the busy place and didn't care about other people at all. They just treated it as being watched by others!
Emperor Wanli saw that the two of them were talking happily in low voices, so he interrupted and said: "I know Lord Qi's ability to train troops! So I asked Lord Qi to come forward and explain to me what is good about this new army." ? What are the shortcomings! Liu Aiqing, you stand on my left hand side! As for the Qi Qing family, they stand on my right hand side!"
Qi Jiguang was overjoyed when he heard this! But he still glanced at Zhang Juzheng very quickly, and when he saw his extremely small nod, he immediately bowed and said: "Yes! I will try my best!"
At this moment, there was a faint sound like thunder coming from outside the camp! Everyone stopped talking and laughing, and some even looked to the sky! But then all of them reacted and looked at the camp gate. Many of their expressions even changed drastically!
Because everyone realized that this was not thunder, but the sound of dense footsteps! Wanting to understand what this sound was about, many officials had expressions of surprise on their faces! How long did it take before the army arrived? What elite soldiers these are!
Since the judging table was facing the gate of the school ground, everyone stretched their necks to look towards the gate! And as the sound of footsteps approached, the door was completely pushed open with the force of ten soldiers!
The moment the gate was opened, more than a hundred fast horses rushed in! As soon as these cavalry rushed into the camp, they scattered and ran around all over the place! Upon seeing this, Emperor Wanli's hopes turned into disappointment, and he couldn't help but snorted and said, "How come the cavalry are running around everywhere!"
After he finished speaking, he glared at Liu Haojia dissatisfiedly, feeling that Liu Haojia had lost face to him! But Liu Haojia smiled and bowed his hands to Qi Jiguang and said: "Master Qi, please explain to His Majesty!"
When Emperor Wanli heard this, he guessed that he might have made a mistake, so he hurriedly looked at Qi Jiguang. Qi Jiguang immediately bowed and said: "Your Majesty! These cavalry who rushed in first are the scout horses of the army - they are not collected at night! Their biggest role is to scout for the army and ensure the safety of the army! So as soon as the camp door opened, they rushed in to take a look It looks like they are running around without any structure! In fact, they are trying to clear the way for the army! If you look carefully at their movement trajectory, they should be moving according to the layout of a city!"
Emperor Wanli hurriedly opened his eyes when he heard this, and slowly he saw some clues! Because the urban layout at this time was similar, with almost no changes! There is usually a straight road into the city, and the rest of the roads are in a grid based on this road! So after thinking about it in my mind, I can see that the trajectory of these cavalry is indeed traveling along an invisible city layout!
Emperor Wanli had just seen some clues, and someone among those who were not in charge of the night blew a sharp whistle! Ye Bu Ting, who was galloping around on horseback, immediately ran to the far left side of the school field when he heard the whistle! And when they got together, they actually started riding horses to form a team!
The most surprising thing is that these night warriors have outstanding equestrian skills, and their horses are very obedient under their control! Some moved forward, some retreated, and they slowly formed a similar square formation!
