Chen Cha stood next to Shen Haolin, quietly listening to the exchanges between Xue Ruitian, Jin Jing and Bai Meng, and observing the hourglass standing in the corner from time to time.
"It's almost time." Shen Cha lightly kicked Hongye and then turned to the lieutenants headed by Song Qiyun, "Let's get started!"
"Old rule? The front army takes the lead?" Hongye stood up straight and twisted his neck, "Hey, why don't you test the results of the rear army these days? I think they really hope that they will be the first to go on the field and put all the hard-trained people on the field. Show the results to everyone.”
"No need, follow the rules." Shen Cha shook his head, "Go ahead!"
"Got it!" Hong Ye nodded, turned around and glanced at the soldiers in the audience who had already stood up and started to move their legs and feet, and shouted loudly, "Young boys, stand up and move around, let's get ready to practice!"
After saying that, Hongye jumped up and jumped directly in front of the huge war drum. She didn't use the drumstick, but turned around in the air, raised her foot and kicked the drum head, making a "dong-dong-dong" sound.
With the rapid beating of drums, Song Qiyun led several lieutenants and saluted Shen Haolin and others, then jumped directly from the high platform and rushed to the center of the school field.
The situation inside the school grounds also changed with the sound of drums. The Shen Jiajun soldiers who heard the drums quickly changed their formations. The front army stayed in the center of the school ground, while the middle and rear troops quickly lined up around it.
"Hey, I don't know what this girl's biological parents do for a living." After hearing what Hongye said just now, Xue Ruitian sighed helplessly, "This girl has such a gangster spirit, her parents can't be the same. King, right?"
"She has a lot of gangster spirit. Didn't she learn it all from you?" Jin Jing snorted, "You two don't have to dislike the other. There is a male bully and a female bully. Those little bad things you did, which time? We can do without her, right? Whenever you were punished by the old marquis, she wouldn’t come with you!"
"Brother Xiaojing is right." Shen Cha smiled and glanced at Xue Ruitian, "The gangsterism in Hong Ye's body has something to do with Brother Xiaotian. However, it's good to have a little gangsterism, so as not to be bullied by you. "
"Bullyed by me?" Don’t make an exception, why don’t you take a gamble?”
"Betting?" Bai Meng looked confused, "What are you betting on? How to bet?"
"There will be ten groups left in this competition. We will bet on how many groups from the front, middle and rear will be left until the end." Xue Ruitian raised his eyebrows, "The amount is arbitrary, and the money will not fall into our own pockets in the end. Here, part of it will be distributed to the final winner as a reward, and the other part will be used to buy some delicious food to reward all the brothers." He patted Bai Meng, "What's up, little Baizi, what are you going to bet on, what are you going to do? How much is the deposit?"
"One thousand taels." Bai Meng took out a thousand taels of silver note from his sleeve and patted it in Jin Jing's hand, "Rear Army, three groups."
"Oh, that's quite generous!" Xue Ruitian nodded towards the guards who had been waiting for a long time, "Remember, Bai Datong will escort three groups of rear troops, one thousand taels."
"The rear army, two groups, the center army, two groups." Shen Cha threw the money bag he carried with him to Jin Jing, "One hundred taels."
"I'm the same as Cha'er." Shen Haolin took back Shen Cha's money bag and took out a banknote from his arms, "Five hundred taels."
"Hey, we are quite optimistic about the rear army this year, but our front army and our vanguard battalion have not been taken seriously. In this case..." Xue Ruitian took out two silver notes, "Forward army, ten groups, two thousand taels." He looked at Jin Jing, and then at the generals who were watching with gusto, "Guys, stop just watching, there should be some action or some action!"
"Master Marquis, you and the marshal and the commander-in-chief are so generous that we are embarrassed to place bets." Qiao Zi weighed the money bag in his hand, "Former army, ten groups, two hundred taels."
"Hey, I've said it before, how much you bet is based on your ability. We don't agree with following the trend." Xue Ruitian handed Qiao Zi's wallet to Jin Jing, "Where are the other people? Aren't you going to participate this year? "
"Five hundred taels, two groups for the Chinese army." Jin Jing took out her banknotes, "Every year it is your former army that takes the limelight, and this year it is the turn of the brothers from the other two armies. Mr. Hou, one family is alone. It’s not a good thing to see, it’s easy for a tree to attract trouble!”
"Then let's just wait and see who has the last laugh." Seeing Lu Shengyuan, Tian Yun, and Chen Qing waving their hands not to participate, Xue Ruitian raised an eyebrow, "What, not confident?"
"That's not true. We have all our money sent home by others, so we won't join in the fun this year." Lu Shengyuan stretched out, "Let's talk about it next year. Besides, the situation this year is more complicated, so we'll just wait and see. "
"Okay!" Xue Ruitian nodded. When he heard Hongye's drumming getting more and more urgent, he took a few steps forward and paid close attention to the situation in the audience.
The school field has already shouted "Killing Formation", and the soldiers of the former army have been divided into groups and started the annual confrontation competition.
Shen Cha stared at the people on her list, looking at them one by one, feeling very satisfied. However, what caught her attention the most was a captain named Duan Xian. He was agile and dexterously avoided his attacker, causing the two people who were attacking him to collide. Because the collision between these two people also knocked over a group of soldiers, but he himself was able to escape without any effort.
"Anyone interested?" Shen Haolin glanced at Shen Cha, "Duan Xian is very eye-catching. It's quite difficult for you to want him."
"The surname is Duan..." Shen Cha raised an eyebrow, "My ancestral home is in the southwest. No matter how outstanding he is, I don't dare to transfer him here."
"I've thought too much. The surname Duan is also a common surname in the southwest border of Daxia, and has nothing to do with the Duan family." Shen Haolin raised his eyebrows, "Duan Xian is Xiaotian's trump card. When necessary, , they still need people who are good at qinggong."
"It turns out that this is how the more important things came about." Shen Cha nodded clearly, then looked at the performance of other people in the field, and sighed, "I always thought that there was no such thing as the former army vs. the competition. I took it to heart and thought they didn't care at all, but I didn't expect... they were also under pressure, and their skills have improved a lot compared to before the Chinese New Year."
Just like Shen Cha said, the soldiers of the front army still paid great attention to the pressure from the rear army. They were holding a breath in their hearts and prepared to release it completely in the first major training after the Chinese New Year. They We need to let the people in the rear army take a closer look. If they want to join the front army or the vanguard camp, they must first reach their level.
Because of this belief, everyone's morale is extremely strong. Even if it is a duel between themselves, they will not slack off. They will almost always punch to the flesh without any mercy. By the time the entire duel was over, everyone had some stains on their faces and bodies, but it wasn't particularly serious.
"Sure enough, it is right to ban weapons competitions." Jin Jing hooked Xue Ruitian's shoulders, "Your people are becoming more and more cruel."
"That's necessary." Xue Ruitian crossed his arms and said with a bad smile, "There are people who are interested in their position. If they don't work hard, their past glory will soon be wiped out."
"That makes sense. If it were me, I would do the same..."
Jin Jing frowned slightly when she felt a silver light flashing in front of her eyes. Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Shen Jiu, who was closest to him, pounce on him and kick the guy who secretly used a hidden weapon. out.
