The number of Qinghe rebels expanded like a snowball, and within a short period of time, the number exceeded 100,000.
The scale of the camp continued to expand. There were military tents all over the mountains and plains, and the noise of people and horses neighed, but it was also very lively.
Zhang Dayuan became the nominal commander-in-chief of the Qinghe Army, and Chen Ru and Xu Fu became the deputy commanders, with twenty battalions of soldiers under their command, which can be said to be strong and strong.
It took less than two weeks for Chen Ziang to be appointed as the general of the old battalion, and he became the general of the 9th Battalion of the Qinghe Army. The speed of promotion is astonishing.
In this era of wars and wars, where human lives are like nothing, power and status are easier to obtain.
It's just that Chen Ziang knew very well in his heart that he was able to become one of the twenty battalion generals in a short period of time, nothing more than the appreciation of the deputy commander Chen Ru and his previous achievements in beheading generals and capturing the flag.
Now Qinghe army is full of talents and there are many generals. If he keeps relying on his laurels, he will be eliminated sooner or later.
And simply relying on the appreciation of others is not long-term after all, and one's own strength is the cornerstone of a foothold.
Therefore, after Chen Ziang was appointed as the general of the 9th Battalion, how to train the 9th Battalion to become a tiger and wolf division that has been screaming all the time, and how to build it into his own confidant team has become his top priority.
In the 9th Battalion, apart from the 800 people that Chen Zi'ang originally compiled from the prisoner-of-war camp as his own, the rest of the 1000-man team and the 100-man team were allocated from the villagers and rebels who defected to their Qinghe Army.
After Chen Ziang inspected the troops he belonged to, his brows twisted into the word Chuan.
There are more than 4,000 soldiers and horses assigned to him, but at least half of them are family members, and half of them can go to battle to kill the enemy.
Moreover, there are good and bad among these people, including ex-rogues and bandits, and villagers who defected from nearby villages and towns, the composition is quite complicated.
Among these assigned teams, there are hundreds of generals, deputy hundred generals, thousand generals, and deputy thousand generals appointed by the Qinghe Army Command, far exceeding the standard.
In order to win over the various villagers and rebel troops who came to defect, the headquarters gave rewards so much that now the lieutenant generals of the Qinghe army are everywhere.
Chen Zi'ang and his 9th Battalion, according to the formal standard, only have ten chief and deputy thousand-man generals, and fifty chief and deputy hundred-man generals.
But now their officers are far beyond the standard. Although some of them are generals with a thousand soldiers, they only have more than a hundred soldiers, and most of them are women and children.
"Order to go on, tomorrow our 9th Battalion will hold a ring competition to select generals of one thousand and one hundred!"
Facing so many thousand generals and hundred generals, it is impossible for Chen Ziang to dismiss them directly. The only thing he can do is to conduct competitions in a fair and open manner. Otherwise, there will be great chaos, and his battalion will not be stable. .
"Boss, will all generals of one thousand and one hundred participate?"
Wang Hu has been following Chen Ziang all the time. Although the public competition made it possible for him not to become a powerful general, he still supports Chen Ziang because Chen Ziang has never treated him badly.
"In my 9th Battalion, whether it is an existing general or an ordinary soldier, as long as they can win the ring, I can award positions from high to low."
"No!"
Although Wang Hu felt that Chen Ziang's idea was a bit crazy, he felt that perhaps this way could select a real champion.
On the second day, Chen Ziang and his 9th Battalion set up ten arenas. More than 5,000 men, women, old and young were all present, eager to try.
Especially those soldiers who are strong in themselves but have relatively low military ranks are full of excitement, because as long as they win the ring, they can become generals.
The first round in the morning is the audition, that is, no matter who they are, as long as they feel that they are strong enough, they can enter the ring.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, everyone's strength is clear at a glance, and no one can cheat or play tricks.
Although the original generals felt that Chen Ziang's approach was too rough, but there were only so many positions, and they had to work hard.
The ring competition attracted the attention of many people from the very beginning, not only the soldiers of the 9th Battalion surrounded the rings tightly, but also the soldiers of the other battalions who heard the news also came to watch the excitement.
? In the ring competition, everyone showed the attitude of the eagle fighting the rabbit with all their strength, and there were not a few people who were beaten to the ground. Every fierce battle would arouse applause from the surroundings.
Chen Ziang's relatively new way of selecting generalsIt also aroused the curiosity of Chen Ru, the deputy commander of the headquarters, and came to watch the scene in person.
After a morning of fierce competition, more than forty ordinary soldiers stood out and entered the next round.
The group arena in the afternoon is mainly a challenge competition, starting from a hundred generals, but any challenger who enters this stage, as long as he has his eyes on a certain military position, he can directly challenge the party concerned, and the party concerned cannot refuse.
Those more than forty ordinary soldiers who stand out have the chance to become hundreds of generals only if they defeat these hundreds of generals occupying positions, so they all put on a posture of attacking with all their strength.
Those hundreds of generals suffered unspeakably, and many of them had to abdicate sadly in the face of powerful challengers one after another.
After the adjustment of the hundred generals, there will be a challenge for the thousand generals. All the hundred generals and vice-hundred generals will have the opportunity to compete for the positions of deputy thousand generals and thousand generals.
This round of competition is even more dangerous and cruel. After all, there is a world of difference between the status of a general of a hundred and a general of a thousand, and everyone has given their strength.
The group arena match lasted until night, Chen Ziang and the others had to light torches and bonfires to illuminate the arena.
? After a fierce group arena match, five people including Wang Hu, Li Lang, Lin Yu, Zhang Bao and Yang Zhong were successfully promoted to Thousand Generals.
Among the other hundred generals, more than half were brave men who stood out from his eight hundred brothers.
Especially Zhang Bao, who was originally just a fierce and brave ordinary hunter, and was no more than a hunting leader in their village.
This time, he went directly to the arena and progressed layer by layer, becoming one of the five thousand generals of the 9th Battalion, which made people look sideways.
Chen Ziang announced the appointment of the five of them in public, and at the same time announced the appointment of each of the hundred generals.
As for the hundreds of generals who were originally conferred by the headquarters, the thousand generals have now become polished commanders because they were not selected.
"You are officers conferred by the High Command. Although you have lost the election now, you will have plenty of opportunities in the future. From now on, you will be organized into the 9th Battalion General. There are vacancies, and you can compete for the top position at any time."
Chen Zi'ang organized these hundreds of generals and thousands of generals who were not selected into the army generals directly under the 9th Battalion. Firstly, they stayed by his side and slowly cultivated them.
After all, these people are all newcomers, and there are still many subordinates in the 9th Battalion. They cannot be beaten to death with a single stick, but they should be given some hope.
?Because it was an open and fair selection of generals, although these people lost the selection, they were convinced that they lost. Those who were not reconciled, now can only look forward to the next time. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
