Super Dictator

At this time, there were about 7,000 people left in the field. Yan Dunyuan and others repeated their old tricks, selecting those who could read and write first, and there were only a few dozen people in total, most of whom were still half-experienced.

The rest were still standing still. After going through the exam, it was already midday before they knew it. The sun was scorching hot. The sergeants standing on the playground were not only sweating, but also hungry.

However, they did not dare to move without an order.

An awning had been set up on the high platform, and Wei Jichen sat down first. Luo Rongguang looked at the many tables and chairs that had been moved in, and was a little confused.

"General Luo, could it be that when I came to Dagongou, you couldn't even entertain me with a meal?" Wei Jichen asked jokingly, touching his belly.

"Have lunch here?" Luo Rongguang was extremely surprised. He thought Wei Jichen would dismiss the sergeants first, and then come back in the afternoon to continue after lunch. Unexpectedly, Wei Jichen would open a table in front of the playground, and he obviously would not dismiss the soldiers.

"The soldiers I want to recruit must be people with outstanding willpower and endurance. If they are not allowed to stand upright for two or three hours, it will be impossible to tell which one is stronger and which one is weaker. We might as well just eat here and wait." "Wei Jichen explained briefly.

Although there is no systematic training on standing military postures in this era, sergeants will still stand for a long time during training on weekdays. However, it is really rare for sergeants to stand in the sun for two or three hours like Wei Jichen.

Standing in a military posture is definitely one of the simplest ways to test people. Standing motionless for several hours, those who have not experienced it personally will never imagine how difficult it is.

After hearing what Wei Jichen said, Luo Rongguang understood what he was thinking and ordered Han Zhaoqi to come forward.

Soon, several tables of food and wine were placed in front of the playground. After a while of greetings, Wei Jichen led everyone to sit down and eat with gusto.

In the field, the sergeants have been standing since the morning until now. Some people with poor physical fitness have begun to have their legs tremble and sweat profusely.

The crowds of people drinking wine in front of the playground made them feel even more empty in their stomachs and weak in their limbs.

"Admiral Wei's selection of soldiers is really novel." After drinking for three rounds, Luo Rongguang said with some emotion.

Wei Jichen toasted Luo Rongguang and stopped expressing his opinion on the matter. Instead, he changed the subject and asked, "How is the navy's condition now?"

The Beiyang Fleet broke through, and in the end only the three cruisers Dingyuan, Pingyuan, and Jiyuan, the three gunboats Zhenbei, Zhennan, and Zhendong, as well as some torpedo boats and auxiliary ships were able to escape during the night.

The commander of the 'Dingyuan' was Liu Buchan, the commander of the 'Pingyuan' was Li He, and the commander of the 'Jiyuan' was originally Fang Boqian. The rear was beheaded for escaping during the Battle of the Yellow Sea. The commander of the 'Jiyuan' was Lin Guoxiang, the commander of the "Guangyi" who had outstanding performance in the Battle of Toshima, took over. The commander of the "Kangji" in the training ship also survived. Together with some small ships, the once-prominent Beiyang Navy was left. Let’s get rid of this few people.

The remaining ships fled back to Dagu Port and did not dare to go out. In addition, there was no specialized repair dock in Dagu Port, so these ships stayed alone.

Now that the war is over, the Japanese still occupy Weihaiwei, and the remaining Beiyang ships have nowhere to go. They are all waiting for news. Fortunately, the Japanese will return to Lushunkou soon.

Wei Jichen estimated that the remaining fleet would join him in defending Liaodong.

When Luo Rongguang saw Wei Jichen talking about the Beiyang Navy, he couldn't help but put down his glass, sighed, and said: "Liu Buchan has been staying on the Dingyuan and refused to go ashore, saying that he would never set foot on land until he led the sailors to repair the ship. "

Wei Jichen never expected that Liu Buchan would have such a fierce temper and even use manpower to repair the ship without a dock. No wonder in the original history, with the sinking of the Dingyuan, he fulfilled his life-long belief of "If you lose the ship, you will commit suicide." oath.

"How is the repair of Dingyuan and other ships going?" Wei Jichen asked excitedly, thinking at the same time: If the Beiyang Navy's fleet can go to sea, he can just take the sea route, transport troops from Dagukou to Yingkou, and then enter the sea. City, this is much faster than taking the land route.

"I haven't seen this, it probably hasn't been repaired yet." Luo Rongguang replied with some uncertainty.

While the two were eating and talking, dozens of sergeants in the playground fell to the ground and passed out.

When someone raised his head, countless soldiers became discouraged and began to be unable to hold on. They fell to the ground one after another. The observing sergeants hurried forward and dragged these soldiers out of the field. They rescued them unconsciously and let them rest after they collapsed. , in short, they are all eliminated.

Not long after, less than half of the 7,000 sergeants were gone, leaving about 4,000 people.

Wei Jichen and others had finished their lunch and stood high in front again. Looking at the soldiers standing precariously below, Wei Jichen's expression did not change at all.

Luo Rongguang was curious to see if Wei Jichen could wait like this until there were only two thousand people left in the venue.

Unexpectedly, Wei Jichen issued a new order.

"Let the sergeants and the people in front fight each other in pairs. The loser will withdraw."

Luo Rongguang was secretly speechless. Wei Jichen was a little too harsh. Now the soldiers were exhausted, and letting them fight each other was really killing people.

Li Chun did not hesitate at all, and immediately issued the order. All the soldiers in the room looked at each other and hesitated.

They are all weak now, their hands and feet are sore and exhausted, and they just want to sit down and rest for a while.

Seeing this, Wei Jichen narrowed his eyes slightly, put his hands behind his back, and spoke to the soldiers for the first time.

"Everyone, I, Wei Jichen, have made up my mind to train the Dingliao Army into an army that can compete with the great powers. All the sergeants and sergeants in the army must be able to block hundreds of people with one. They are extremely brave. When given an order, they dare to go up the mountain to fight against the tiger. Go into the sea to bind the dragon."

Wei Jichen's energetic, sonorous and powerful voice suddenly resounded throughout the audience, and the sergeant immediately focused his gaze on this famous anti-Japanese general.

My dear, there will be more after this chapter^.^,

"A true warrior must have the blood of a wolf, the power of a tiger, and the ferocity of a leopard, and our Ding Liao Army will become an army composed of such brave people."

"The brave will win when they meet on a narrow road. Now it's the last minute. Use any part of your body to knock down the opponent in front of you!" Wei Jichen's voice gradually became louder.

"Fight, knock down anyone or anything that dares to stand in front of you, and you will be the one with the last laugh. Now, listen to my orders!" Wei Jichen paused, slowly surveyed the audience with his eyes, and raised his voice sharply. , raised his arms and shouted: "Knock down the enemy in front of you, become a member of our Dingliao Army, and fight with me, Wei Jichen."

Wei Jichen's words completely ignited the passion in the hearts of the soldiers below.

"Come on!" the soldiers roared and pounced on the opponents on the opposite side, then struggled wildly with each other.

For a moment, the entire playground was in chaos, and the sound of fighting resounded throughout the venue, making Luo Rongguang and others watching the battle change their expressions.

Fortunately, there was no such thing as human rights in this era, otherwise the soldiers might have sued Wei Jichen for mistreating him.

The soldiers who have been able to persist until now are the ones who absolutely refuse to give up. Therefore, they have only one choice, which is to defeat their opponents, make them fall to the ground, and win.

Luo Rongguang suddenly realized why Wei Jichen asked him to call the military doctors over. Now it seemed that these military doctors were definitely too busy and they had to find some doctors from outside to treat bruises and injuries.

The soldiers' eyes were red from the killing, their fists were punched to the flesh, their feet and legs were strong, roars came from their mouths, and they fought hand to hand in pairs.

Soon there was bloodshed in the fight. Some soldiers were beaten with bloody heads and fell to the ground wailing.

Fortunately, Wei Jichen had kept them standing for several hours and had not eaten lunch. On weekdays, there would have been a list of 'killed in action'.

Luo Rongguang looked at the cold-faced Wei Jichen and couldn't help but think in his heart: As expected of Wei Jichen, the God of Death, even the selection of soldiers was carried out in the most barbaric way.

In less than half an hour, the winner had been decided, and groans could be heard intermittently.

Even the victorious party was barely standing, but with a confident smile on their face.

As for the loser, either they knelt on the ground unwillingly, or they lay on the ground as if they had lost all their strength and refused to move. Of course, some of the injured and bleeding people were no longer present.

Wei Jichen twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, hinting at a sneer.

After these defeated soldiers returned to the original army, they will definitely remember this day. When they encounter the Dingliao army in the future, they will definitely be timid before fighting.

And the winner will definitely have the upper hand psychologically when he encounters an army composed of sergeants who were defeated by him in the future. This is how confidence is slowly generated.

"Lord Qi, there are 1,956 people standing, more than 400 people have withdrawn injured and bleeding, and the rest are losers." Ruan Zhongshu soon counted the number and handed it over to Wei Jichen.

"Yes, as expected." Wei Jichen took it with one hand, hiding his inner expression very well.

Looking at the soldiers on the field who were using all their strength to remain standing, Wei Jichen said calmly: "Very good, you are all victorious today, but you are not the final winner yet!"

Wei Jichen's words immediately attracted the attention of the soldiers on the field. Even the soldiers who fell to the ground opened their ears, and Luo Rongguang secretly guessed in his heart what else Wei Jichen wanted.

Wei Jichen did not disappoint everyone and continued: "I will stay in Dagukou for a few days. During this period, I will give the losers a chance, a chance to turn defeat into victory. Please remember to stand by your side." That face in front of me, these days, as long as you are dissatisfied, you can challenge me at any time. Before I leave, the final winner will be the one with the last laugh. "

As soon as Wei Jichen said these words, some of the sergeants who had been kneeling on the ground with expressions of reluctance ignited new hope. They clenched their fists tightly, looked at the high-altitude victor, and silently swore in their hearts - tomorrow, I will Must defeat you.

Of course, those soldiers who lost the courage to fight again were not included.

And those who were lucky enough to win just now were all nervous. If the situation were reversed in the next few days, they would lose a lot of people, so their hearts, which were originally relaxed, became tightly clenched again.

Luo Rongguang couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Wei Jichen's work was really impeccable.

Now that more than two thousand elite soldiers have been recruited, Luo Rongguang was about to order the disbandment of other armies, but Wei Jichen stepped forward to stop him and said: "General Luo, we have one last test to do."

"One more thing?" Luo Rongguang couldn't help but widen his eyes and thought in his heart: This General Wei looks gentle and elegant, but he would not be merciless when he tortures his soldiers.

Wei Jichen seemed to have guessed what he was thinking. He smiled casually and said, "Don't worry, there will definitely be no bleeding this time. After all, you can see that they can't withstand any greater test."

Luo Rongguang's curiosity became even stronger. Today was probably the strangest day he had ever experienced in his life. It was all because of the young man in front of him. Luo Rongguang looked at Wei Jichen with a complicated expression.

Wei Jichen nodded slightly to Li Chun. Suddenly, hundreds of soldiers came off the field and began to check all the soldiers on the field one by one.

It is undeniable that some people have talents that ordinary people cannot match, such as outstanding marksmanship, good riding skills, or even the ability to run fast and for a long time. These are talents.

People with these talents can play certain special roles in the military, so the last selection is to select members of the special operations team, which were formerly members of the fire brigade.

As for the Western-style army, how many people in the Qing Dynasty really understand the Western military system? Wei Jichen wants to be bold and generous, and slowly build an army capable of hundreds of battles according to his own vision.

For these people with special talents, they can be directly recruited into the army. Once this news was revealed, it immediately caused a sensation.

Some people who were frustrated at first thought that their marksmanship was not bad. After hearing this, they all stepped forward to report.

It's a pity that sharpshooters are not so easy to be. After verification and recruitment on the spot, Li Chun only selected ten sharpshooters among four thousand people. Not only did these people have extremely fast reaction speed, but their marksmanship was even more accurate, and they could hit targets thrown into the sky at the same time. Five pieces of rubble.

Wei Jichen nodded frequently as he watched from the front. This Li Chunguo was really a talent. Everything was done in an orderly and orderly manner according to his own vision.

"Sir, I am able to hold my breath in water for a cup of tea, does that count as a special ability?" A man with a loyal and honest face walked up to Li Chun and asked uneasily.

Li Chun was stunned by the question. Fortunately, he couldn't figure it out himself, so he could ask Wei Jichen.

"How long does it take to make a cup of tea? About fifteen minutes. A normal person can only stay in the water for three or four minutes." Wei Jichen nodded and said, "Have someone take him into the water to try. If it's true, take action. "

Being able to hold your breath for a long time can be regarded as a special ability. When the news spread, it caused a sensation and the sergeants started shouting.

Before long, all kinds of strange people came out, including people who could imitate the sounds of various insects and birds, people who were as light as a swallow, and so on.

After Wei Jichen asked people to test him, as long as it was true, he would be recruited into the army. This move made Luo Rongguan next to him stunned.

At this point, the recruitment of soldiers has been successfully completed. Wei Jichen will stay in Dagukou for a few days, and then he will go to other defensive areas to recruit the remaining soldiers.
