Datang: Empress mother-in-law sent Li Er to test me

Li Er sighed, when he first saw the memorial on this person, he didn't know it at all.

However, he underestimated the determination of the soldier Uiro.

This person actually goes to memorials every day.

The daily memorials are full of cursing in different ways.

The more Li Er thought about it, the more angry he became, and cursed: "It's a pity to put him in the Ministry of War, he should be sent to Yushitai!"

"Such literary talent, such rhetoric, should be a censor!"

Empress Changsun picked up the memorial from the case and looked at it, and said in surprise: "Your Majesty, this man is very good at managing troops."

Following Li Er's side for so many years, she also knew a lot about the art of war, and she could tell at a glance that this person's proficiency in the art of war was extraordinary between the words in the memorial.

"Does he know more than Zhang Dun?"

Li Er raised his eyebrows, he was speaking to Empress Changsun, but his eyes were on Li Jing.

Li Jing laughed dryly.

With such a comparison, he dared not draw conclusions.

However, he knew that this Yuanwailang was not an ordinary person.

He has really been on the battlefield and made a lot of military exploits.

Moreover, it is still a rare general.

On the battlefield, he was able to complete the tasks assigned to him meticulously.

Let him defend the city, and the city will never be broken.

Let him go to the surrounding area to fight for aid, and he will definitely wipe out the opponent.

It can be said that his appearance made Li Jing feel that there was someone who would succeed him.

"This Su Dingfang..."

Li Er sighed, tapped the memorial with his fingers, and said slowly: "It really hurts me."

"Your Majesty, since he is so unconvinced, why not let him compare with Zhang Dun?"

Li Jing said suddenly.

Li Er frowned, looked Li Jing up and down, and asked, "Is this your idea, or his idea?"

Li Jing said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty Qi Zuo, this is not only the minister's idea, but also Su Dingfang's idea."

"Nowadays, in the Ministry of War, many people hold great opinions on His Majesty's new establishment of Pingkang Zhechong Mansion. The reason is that His Majesty's attitude towards Pingkang Zhechong Mansion is different from other Zhechong Mansions."

"Your Majesty only received the memorials from Su Dingfang, while I was in the Ministry of War, but I received reports from my subordinates on the left and right. On the case files of the Ministry of War, the ministers were almost drowned out by the memorials."

"I believe that the reason for this kind of thing is that the people in the Ministry of War are dissatisfied with Zhang Dun."

"If you want to convince the public, you must let the people in the Ministry of War see Pingkang's ability to Zhechongfu. It is indeed worth His Majesty's hard work for this."

"That's why I thought of asking people from the Ministry of War to compete with Ping Kang Zhe Chongfu. Only in this way can we convince the public."

Li Er was silent for a few seconds, and then slowly said: "You are right."

"This matter... I will consider it."

I don't know if Zhang Dun will agree.

After all, Pingkang Zhechong Mansion had only been newly established for half a month. In half a month, no matter how powerful Zhang Dun was, he might not be able to make those recruits form combat power in such a short period of time.

Hmm, I'll have to ask in a while.

Li Er was thinking in his heart.

……

The next morning, it was just dawn.

The yamen of Jingzhao Mansion.

After breakfast, the one thousand recruits who blacksmithed the iron yesterday, under Zhang Dun's order, took steps and ran like flying along the official road.

Of the other 950 recruits, [-] began to forge.

Zhang Dun put his hands behind his back and looked at the 50 people in front of him.

This is a carefully selected candidate from among the two thousand recruits in Pingkang Zhechong Mansion.

At this time, the fifty recruits headed by Yan Chou looked at Zhang Dun in confusion, not understanding why he singled them out.

"Starting today, you will have to train separately."

Zhang Dun looked at them with a smile on his face.

Yan Chou asked curiously, "Ping Kangbo, what do you want these people to do?"

The other 49 people looked at him in awe.

Chapter 461 The Greatly Changed Pingkang Zhechong Mansion Recruits

When I first came to Pingkang Zhechong Mansion, I followed Zhang suddenly.

They felt that Zhang Dun was torturing them.

But now, they understood that Zhang Dun's intention was to strengthen their bodies.

Today's them, both in terms of physique and strength, are quite different from before.

This is fed meal by meal!

Even they find it incredible.

It turns out that their strength can be so great.

They used to use pens at home.

But after they came to Pingkang Zhechong Mansion, they no longer used pens, but fists with both hands.

Yes, they have been here for so long.

No weapons were touched.

They also once asked Zhang Dun, would it be an act of death if he went to the battlefield without a weapon?

But Zhang Dun told them.

Their weapons are still being refined.

They just realized that the weapons Zhang Dun was talking about were those flintlock guns.

Flintlocks are also being manufactured in full swing.

Although they do not understand.

But shocked.

Zhang Dun said in a deep voice: "From today onwards, you only follow me to do things, do you understand?"

"understand!"

Fifty recruits straightened their waists and said loudly.

"Ping Kangbo, what do you want us to do?"

Yan Chou said with a smile.

"Run."

Zhang Dun said with a smile.

The fifty recruits couldn't help but startled, isn't this the same as the thousand recruits who just ran out?

"But unlike running in the past, today you need to bring this."

Zhang Dun turned around and pulled a bullock cart from a distance.

The bullock cart was covered with a piece of cloth. When Zhang Dun lifted the cloth, a pair of iron wrist guards and leg guards on the bullock cart were exposed to everyone's eyes.

These are the things that Zhang Dun asked the Ministry of Industry to create in the past few days.

Zhang Dun threw one of the iron wristbands to Yan Chou, and Yan Chou took it quickly, almost being dragged a few times, and said in surprise, "So heavy?"

Everyone was equally dumbfounded, wearing this thing, can they still run?

But Zhang Dun said, they could only grit their teeth and picked up the iron wrist guards and leg guards on the bullock cart, and tied them on their bodies.

"I'm running with you."

Zhang Dun said suddenly.

Fifty recruits watched Zhang Dun pick up a pair of wrist guards and leg guards from the bullock cart, and they felt warm in their hearts.

Zhang Dun put it on skillfully, stood up and moved around, and nodded with satisfaction, the weight was just right.

However, for the recruits, it might be a little heavy, but it will be almost the same after getting used to it.

After all, I was so used to it at the beginning.

Zhang Dun looked at the recruits and said, "Follow the official road of Chang'an City and run in the direction of Hedong Road!"

"promise!"

Everyone made a promise and stepped forward, but soon found that it was extremely difficult to move a step under the iron wrist guards and iron leg guards.

Zhang Dun, on the other hand, seemed to be strolling in the garden, as if the iron wrist guards and iron leggings on his body were fake.

Everyone gritted their teeth and insisted, if Ping Kangbo can do it, so can they!

One day, two days, three days...

It lasts a full week.

Every day their training is to run with iron wristbands and iron leggings.

Whether sleeping or eating, I have never removed it once.

Half a month later, the 950 recruits have become a bit more burly due to daily blacksmithing and training.

There was even more determination on his face.

As if reborn, I can no longer see the bookishness of the past.

In addition, the fifty recruits headed by "Yan Chou" were the burliest among the crowd, and their arms were a bit thicker than them.

Half a month later in the morning, Zhang Dun brought out Yan Chou and other fifty recruits again, looked at their physiques, and nodded in satisfaction.

"From now on, you can put down the burden."

Yan Chou and the others looked happy, and quickly removed the iron wrist guard and iron leg guard and threw them on the ground.

The sound of surprise suddenly sounded.

"Why do you feel as light as a swallow?"

"Me too, I feel lighter!"

Everyone clicked their tongues in amazement, waving their arms, feeling an indescribable comfort in their hearts!

Zhang Dun looked at them deeply, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and said, "Call everyone over here."

"promise!"

Soon, all [-] recruits lined up in the courtyard of the Jingzhao government office.

Zhang Dun looked at them standing upright, looking more and more like soldiers of the government. He put his hands behind his back and said with a smile, "Today, let's go to Ertun Village to buy grain!"

"promise!"

Everyone clasped their fists together.

"set off!"

Under the leadership of Zhang Dun, the crowd ran to Ertun Village dozens of miles away.

On the official road, everyone galloped like the wind.

The people on the road looked at them dumbfounded and clicked their tongues.

"Who are these people? How come they run so fast!"
