Li Jun originally wanted to defend himself, but Shen Cha's word "stupid" made him speechless. His whole face turned red in an instant, and he wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl in. .
"Ji Zhi..." After a while, Li Jun regained his composure, took a deep breath, and said with a serious expression, "Ji Zhi has to take full responsibility for the failure of this competition. It's because he was not calm. It led to the annihilation of the entire army. If you want to punish the marshal, the marquis, and the generals, please punish a person in a low-level position."
"You are really a man who dares to do what you do!" Xue Ruitian touched his chin, stood up and walked in front of Li Jun, "If I remember correctly, you have already made preparations to fight Colonel An Ming. I have seen the rough tactical plan, and the overall feeling is good. If you follow the plan you made, it is not impossible for the weak to defeat the strong." He leaned on Shen Haolin's small table and hugged him He crossed his arms, looked at Li Jun, and then at Wen Daishan, "So, how did it evolve into the situation just now?"
"At the beginning, you were not in a hurry to attack." Shen Cha also stared at Li Jun, "This is the right thing to do. You are on the weaker side. Even if you delay for a long time, the impact will not be as great as the other party. Why didn't you continue to persist and instead took the lead in attacking?"
"It was Beiji's fault. Beiji thought that if he continued to delay, he would fall into the opponent's scheme." Li Jun's attitude was very sincere, "I didn't expect... Beiji's rash advance was the real step into the opponent's trap. Later I watched When all the brothers were knocked to the ground, I got hot-headed and rushed out regardless of Captain Wen's dissuasion."
"A hot-headed one?" Jin Jing raised an eyebrow, "Captain Li, why do you get a hot-headed one at a critical moment? I heard that you usually don't like Captain An, and as soon as you meet, there will be a quarrel. It’s not a deal-breaker, is it?”
"Yes, humble enough to admit it."
"Well, just admit it. Your inaccurate judgment of the situation on the spot, your inability to resist irritation, and your selfish motives led to the final defeat. Lieutenant Li, do you think you are suitable to be a vanguard officer, leading your brothers to charge into battle?" ?"
"……Not suitable."
"I know myself very clearly. I hope you can think calmly about why you came to join the army. After you have thought about it, you can tell General Lu, or you can come directly to me." Xue Ruitian regretted Sighing, "Although your attitude of admitting your mistakes is very good and makes us all satisfied, I'm sorry, the mistake you made is very serious. At least I will not give you my vote." He stood up straight. He walked up to Qin Zheng and Uncle Yan, "Master Deputy Commander, Uncle Yan, do you two have anything else to ask?"
"No." Qin Zheng shook his head, "Our two votes go to Captain An Ming."
"Captain An Ming has three votes now." Xue Ruitian touched the teapot on the table between the two of them. It was already a little cold. He picked it up and handed it to Mei Lin, asking her to help refill the water. "Marshal, General Shen, and Military Advisor, what about you? ?”
"Captain An." The three people named said in unison.
"Okay, Captain An has already received six votes." Xue Ruitian looked at the generals and smiled, "Everyone, if you want to vote for Captain An, please raise your hands." Seeing that all the generals raised their hands, he Turning around to look at An Ming, "Congratulations to Captain An, you passed unanimously. You can wait for the next competition."
"Thank you for your humble position, Marshal, Lord Marquis, and generals for your training!" An Ming saluted, "Thank you two veteran generals!"
"No need to thank us, you performed very well today." Qin Zheng glanced at An Ming, "You four will stay here first, we still have some questions to ask."
"...I humble my duty and obey my orders!"
Xue Ruitian walked up to Shen Cha, bent down slightly, and whispered in her ear, "Let them wait in the big tent. This is not the right time to ask about such a personal matter."
"I know!" Shen Cha nodded, "Merlin!"
"Don't call Merlin, I'll take them there!" Jin Miaomiao stretched, "I still have some things to do, and I can watch them while I do it."
"Okay, they'll leave it to you."
Seeing Jin Miaomiao leaving with An Ming, Li Jun, Liu Shan and Wen Daishan, Shen Cha asked Mei Lin to go down and announce the results of the competition. At the same time, he took the two teams out of the school and replaced them with the second group for a new round of competition. .
In the next four groups of competitions, the strength of both sides was relatively equal. Compared with the group of Jing Ming and Li Jun, the scene was very exciting. There was no situation where one side suppressed the other side.
The last two teams participating in the competition were composed entirely of cavalry. Their riding skills were very superb, especially the two leading captains, whose performance was even more eye-catching. During the entire competition, there were two thrilling situations where they were about to fall off their horses, but in the blink of an eye, they turned over lightly and sat back on the horses again.
"These two..." Qiao Zi came to Lu Shengyuan's side, "They are quite powerful. I didn't expect you to have such powerful talents. Why have I never heard of them before? I have never seen them before."
"You have heard about it, and you have seen it. Aren't you just waiting to be robbed by you? Can you count how many people you have robbed from me over the years?" Lu Shengyuan rolled his eyes and asked Qiao Zi His big head was pushed to the side, "Learning from the past, it's better for me to be on guard against you."
"Why are you so vindictive?" Qiao Zi curled her lips, "This is not like your style."
"You have been robbed too many times, and you will be like me." Lu Shengyuan snorted, "Didn't you hear what the Marshal and the Marquis said? Our rear army also has to shoulder the task of attacking." He looked at his seat The person in the front row lowered his voice and said, "A few days ago, I heard the military advisor's suggestion that the rear army should be divided into three parts, the left army, the right army and the rear army."
"Do they have this plan?" Qiao Zi raised an eyebrow and replied in a low voice, "Actually, there are indeed too many people in the rear army, and many outstanding talents will be overwhelmed. If you can separate some of them, you can manage them too. Very convenient, isn’t it?”
"Silly!" Lu Shengyuan rolled his eyes at Qiao Zi again, "Is this a problem that is inconvenient for the management? If you do this, the left army and the right army will have to bear the same responsibility for the attack as the former army, and the entire regulations will be the same as yours Yes. And..." He looked at Song Qiyun and Xia Jiu behind him, "I'm afraid these two will get their wish."
"Isn't this great? It saves them from bothering me every day and asking me when I can transfer them over." Qiao Zi couldn't help but rolled his eyes, "Although they are not weak, they are also in the Pioneer Camp. Outstanding person, but how could I do something under the nose of the Marquis? If we can really get them to go to the left army or the right army, both of us will be free."
"...That makes sense."
"Right? Also, the rules of our Shen family army have not changed for so many years. The Jin people and the Liao people have figured it out, so it would be good to change it now."
"A backup plan?"
"Yes, it can play a big role at a critical moment. I think they seriously considered this suggestion, and it was also based on this. After all, neither Jin nor Liao were easy to get along with, allowing them to take advantage of the loopholes. They're in big trouble." Qiao Zi glanced at Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, who were whispering to each other, "Speaking of which, it's really incredible that they have such ambitions at such a young age, but they are much better than us. We are At their age, it’s not as much as they think.”
"It's better to be young than to be young." Lu Shengyuan raised his chin and pointed at Qin Zheng and Yan Bo's hands. "I'm afraid those two old people have never thought that they will see the day when Jin Fan is defeated in their lifetime! Although they don't say it, they I'm not sure how happy I am. People of their generation hate Jin more than Liao. Don't forget..." He turned his eyes to Xue Ruitian, "The case back then seemed to be a foregone conclusion, but anyone with a discerning eye could see it. The witness testimonies were insufficient and could not withstand scrutiny. The reason why the case was hastily closed was simply to comply with public opinion. But in the minds of the two elders and the Marquis, the case was far from over. It was settled. Jin, maybe we can find the truth of that year."
"..." Qiao Zi was silent for a while, "Perhaps this is the main reason why they agreed to Liao's request. They used Liao's power to break into Jin and look for ironclad evidence from that year. Only by finding evidence in Jin can they prove their innocence."
"The point is, His Majesty supports them in doing this. In other words, that case is also a thorn in the heart of His Majesty and the Queen Mother in the palace." Lu Shengyuan looked at Qiao Zi and patted him, "Take your time and take a look, maybe … We’re seeing something great happen.”
"It's not a witness, we are also part of it!" Qiao Zi saw that the last group of cavalry had finished the competition and commented, "It can basically be said to be a tie. Which one do you favor?"
"Why should I tell you?" Lu Shengyuan once again pushed away Qiao Zi's big head, "No matter who it is, the strength of our rear army is pretty good, right?"
"Then just wait and see. I hope these few who come out will not stop at the first round."
The final result of the competition was that the black-armored camp had slightly better luck. Including An Ming's group, three teams entered the next round, while the red-armored camp only had two teams. However, they felt that no matter which side represented their rear army, it was best to disrupt the positions of the front army and the middle army.
Xue Ruitian fulfilled the promise he made before the competition and ordered a sufficient amount of grilled fish in advance to be delivered to the army. The soldiers who had been fighting all morning were already hungry, and their stomachs were growling when they smelled the aroma of grilled fish. Very powerful. Fortunately, the marshals, marquises, and generals were considerate of their subordinates. After the last group finished the competition and announced the final results, they all left the field and rushed back to the camp to enjoy the delicious food.
Except for Lu Shengyuan and Shen Jiu, no one else returned to the Chinese army's tent with Shen Haolin, Shen Cha, Xue Ruitian and Jin Jing. They all had their own affairs to be busy with. The competition between the rear army and the front army was about to come to an end. It's time to start. They need to prepare well, let the marshal and marquis shine in their eyes, and tell them with facts that the former army is irreplaceable.
Shen Haolin and Shen Cha knew what these generals were thinking and did not insist on staying, so they just let them go.
"Master, the big tent is over here." Shen Cha saw that Qin Zheng and Uncle Yan were going in the wrong direction and quickly reminded them.
"You guys should be busy with your own business. We've been working hard all morning. We're going back to have a rest. We're going to the theater to listen to a play in the afternoon!"
Looking at the backs of Qin Zheng and Yan Bo leaving, the few people left behind looked at each other.
"Listening to operas? Have they ever had such a hobby before?"
