Mo Dao, with heavy steps, has various short soldiers hanging on the right side of the waist, and a round shield with a diameter of three feet on the left. When using the Bai Dao with both hands, they are used to holding the round shield behind their backs, which can increase the protection behind them. When fighting, they hold the shield with their left hand and use close-fitting weapons such as battle axe, mace, short sword, and short spear in the right hand. Although the five-foot blade is carefully wrapped by the leather sheath, among all the square arrays that are being paraded, the Bai Dao's hands are still the most murderous. With their appearance, the temperature on the parade ground seems to be much colder.

"The biggest surprise this time is that I got these 2,500 Modao soldiers." Chen De smiled at Li Si beside him. In the late Tang Dynasty and Five Dynasties, the main targets of the Central Plains army were infantry, so the Tang Dynasty Modao, which was more conducive to restraining the light cavalry, was abandoned by the army of various towns in the Central Plains because it was expensive. The Guiyi army was close to the Western Regions, and it was easy to obtain the good iron to build Modao, and also faced the raid of Uighurs and Tubo Light Cavalry on all sides.

Although the proportion of the cavalry of the Guiyi Army is far higher than that of the Central Plains Jiezhen, it is not realistic to rely entirely on cavalry to control cavalry. Therefore, the Guiyi Army equipped and trained a large number of Modao Hands to resist the attacks of the light cavalry of the surrounding nomadic peoples. After Chen De conquered the Hexi Han Army, he eliminated the weak and kept the strong. After obtaining the 2,500 trained Modao Hands, he had two Modao Battalions in each infantry, which gave two sharp sharp swords to the infantry formation that was originally good at defending.

After obtaining the land of Hexi, Chen De originally wanted to launch an attack on Tubo, Liangzhou. However, after entering Dunhuang and scrutinizing the situation in Hexi, he found that the most urgent task was to integrate the existing strength of Hexi. In Hexi, there were two major forces, Guiyi Army and Ganzhou Uighurs. The Guiyi Army had already been divided, and the Uighur tribes were only defeated by him. He might re-elect the Khan at any time and jointly launch an offensive.

So Chen De could only first organize the surrendered Guiyi Army towns and Lanzhou Western Expedition Army in Dunhuang, as well as the Uighur Warriors recruited, and all the Han people and Uighur tribes within their own power to the sergeants. Then, while training the army, he launched a series of attacks on the Uighur tribes in the Hexi Corridor as a unit. Thanks to the relatively closed terrain of the Hexi Corridor Corridor, it took several months to clean up the thousands of miles of Hexi, and the various armies gradually took shape during training and fighting and training. In the past few months, the newly established Hexi Army soldiers gradually felt the huge advantages brought to them by the new military system. The military and military soldiers who had originally joined Chen De's command for various reasons became respectful to him and loyal to him, and gradually learned to use the various rules set by Chen De to fight for the greatest benefit to themselves.

If the appearance of Baidao Battalion was a stern storm in the parade ground, the next entry of the Bow and Crossbow Camp will make the entire atmosphere liven up. The requirement that the crossbow players must be tall and long arms makes the Longbow Battalion the highest average height among all legions. Under normal circumstances, the crossbow players will shoot arrows under the protection of other armies, which is also the relaxed mentality of the Longbow players in the face of war. Therefore, the Bow and Crossbow Battalion is the most active atmosphere among the legions and the most romantic affairs with the women in the resident.

In order to facilitate the bending of the bow and arrow, the bowman armor only has the shoulder and breastplate, and the other outer armor is light leather. In addition, a silk cotton-lined chain mail vest is worn. Therefore, if the half-person-high protective square shield was not carried behind the back, the pace of these long archers with a tall figure would have been lighter.

The archers hung longbows and round shields on their left waists, and arrow bags and protective weapons on their right. Perhaps because the armor was not heavy enough, many archers chose heavy weapons such as battle axes and maces. In many battles that were critical, the enemy's heavy infantry broke through to the position of the Xia army's longbowers, and were happily preparing to start a one-sided massacre. Unexpectedly, the archers were indeed extremely bloody and melee battles. Relatively speaking, the archers with thin armor were deeply engaged in the technique of exchanging injuries for life in combat.

The last one to enter the venue was the logistics battalion. The Jiarong Army's logistics battalion originally had 300 carriages. Due to the large convoy, only 100 crossbows carrying Zhuge crossbows and 400 soldiers were admitted to the venue for parade. For the sake of convenience of movement, the soldiers of the logistics battalion were extremely simple to wear armor. In addition to the helmets, most of them only wore leather vests with steel sheets.

With the orders of the captains of each battalion, the soldiers in the field were arranged into ten square formations, and the first soldier in the left front of the square formation raised the flag of the camp. Then, the entire parade ground was silent, from the general Chen De to the ordinary soldiers, all stood quietly and waited. After Chen De waved to the audience, the troops immediately shouted like roaring and roaring.

Accompanied by Li Si, Chen De slowly stood up. He wore the full-body armor in the Central Plains style, not very heavy but quite majestic. He walked down the general platform. At the attention of five thousand tigers and ten times more than this number, he turned over and rode a tall war horse and walked towards the neat and solemn formation of the Jiarong Army.

As General Chen De slowly approached on a horse, almost all the soldiers of the sergeant who were on the parade held their breath unconsciously. Pang Lei, the centurion of the Cavalry Camp, was shrouded in an inexplicable excitement. He was originally irritable and uneasy because of the early preparation for various details of the parade. The boredom and fatigue caused by the training for several months seemed to be evaporated by the domineering aura emitted from this person in an instant.

Pang Lei is not an idiot. He was born in a general and was skilled in archery and horses since he was a child. He rode a horse and fought desperately with the Uighur Tubo people on the battlefield. When he had nothing to do, he worked hard with his partners. His life was easy, but he always felt empty. But now, he had a sense of enlightenment that a fierce general finally met a wise ruler. Pang Lei, who was usually unruly, dared not look around in the team at this moment, nor did he dare to say a few jokes to the left and right commanders. His full energy was concentrated on the general who was gradually approaching on the war horse. His hooves seemed to be more beautiful than the sound of the orioles of the brothel girl. Behind his back, the commander could only be willing to be with him.

Chen De's war horse gradually approached, and Pang Lei felt that his gentle and firm gaze seemed to fall on him. He raised his chest like a newcomer who had just joined the army and conveyed his mood with a firm and loyal gaze. In fact, Chen De did notice this mighty and upright cavalry officer and nodded at him with a smile. At this moment, a huge sense of happiness almost completely submerged Pang Lei.

Most of the time, Chen De turned his eyes to the front line of all the soldiers' heads according to his previous life. This way, because the sight contact can make everyone feel that General Chen saw me, and also has a sense of dignity unique to the superiors. When he noticed the respect for the soldiers, he did not smile gently, as if the sun shining on the earth.

After reviewing in front of all the battalions, Chen De patrols back again. He immediately glanced at the military formation waiting for him to speak with great majesty, and shouted: "Sergeants, today, all the commanders, lieutenants, and tens of thousands of people gathered here, just to congratulate you, the great and glorious military army, will form an army today!" He smiled gently, making many of the former sergeants who were originally a little nervous, slightly nervous.

After relaxing a little, he said, "I ask you, what are brothers?"

The five thousand soldiers gathered up their strength and shouted loudly: "Brothers are partners who can trust their lives."

Having memorized well, Chen De thought to himself that all the soldiers selected by the newly compiled Hexi Six Army were veterans with skilled combat skills. The so-called reorganization emphasized the original tactics and tactics of the Lanzhou Army, and on the other hand, it taught rules and bugle names. The so-called lies were repeated a thousand times and became the truth. Chen De wanted to firmly instill certain beliefs into the hearts of the soldiers through this almost brainwashed bugle. At some critical moments, the first reaction made by these beliefs may play a big role. Because under the existing system in Hexi, soldiers were not only rude men who only knew how to fight, but also the cornerstone of the entire ruling system, so Chen De also deliberately instilled some basic political concepts into them.

“What is victory?”

"Victory is forcing the enemy to obey our will!"

“What is fairness?”

"Fairness is to distribute items according to the size of your ability!"

"What is a scholar?"

"Scholars are the sharp sword tempered by rules!"

"What is the army?"

"The army is the power to gather everyone."

"What are you?" Chen De asked last.

"We are soldiers of the Rong army!" Wu Qianhu Ben shouted with all his strength.

Chen De nodded with satisfaction, took out a military flag from behind the saddle, handed it to Li Si, commander of the 10th battalion, and announced loudly: "Today, the great and glorious military flag will be awarded to the 10th battalion."

Li Si replied loudly, "We should swear to protect the honor of the military flag to the death." He took the military flag solemnly, hung it on a gun bar, and held it high. Five thousand soldiers immediately shouted loudly, "Teach the Rong army, teach the Rong army, long live, long live, long live!" All the soldiers' faces were extremely excited. According to the rules, each soldier had a maximum of one hundred civilian households. After the military flag was awarded, the soldiers of the army formed their own unit, and the place where tens of thousands of civilian households lived naturally became the fief of this army. As long as the military flag was not lost, the army could continuously replenish fresh blood through competitions, and the retired and retired soldiers could also receive excellent care within the scope of their military palace. It was better than the best arrogant soldiers and soldiers in the vassal states in the late Tang Dynasty.

As for the issue of descendants inheriting the identity of sergeants, the soldiers of Hexi Army have not thought so long. One reason is that the Han people in the Central Plains value culture over military affairs has become, and most soldiers themselves do not completely want their descendants to eat bowls of blood and lick blood from the edge of a knife. Secondly, the new army has set the rules for obtaining identity by martial arts in advance. There is no first in literature and no second in martial arts. Martial arts are simple and clear, and it is even more fairer than the Central Plains to use imperial examinations to win scholars. However, if the descendants want to join the army, most of them have let their children work hard since childhood and become familiar with horses and equipment. After all, the Hexi army has been constantly fighting. If the soldiers do not have strong skills and die inexplicably, they will also implicate their comrades.
