Rule the Ming Dynasty Alone

Lying in a lonely village, I don't feel sorry for myself, but I still think about guarding the Luntai for the country.

Late at night, I lie down listening to the wind and rain, and the iron horse glacier falls into my dream.

…

Zhu Youtang looked at the heavy cavalry in front of him that he had built himself. Although this army had not yet been baptized with iron blood, the current battle had exceeded his psychological expectations.

I am undoubtedly lucky. The current Beijing camp has not completely fallen into ruin after all. Especially the 12th camp was once controlled by eunuchs such as Wang Zhi, so it has not been wiped out by the civil service group.

Zhu Youtang was very satisfied with the military appearance of the Aegis Battalion, and nodded in approval: "I am very pleased that you are wearing heavy armor for me to defend the capital. Let's start training!"

"According to the order!" The Thousand Heavy Cavalry looked murderous and responded loudly immediately.

Zhang Yong specially made a ferocious ghost-headed mask for himself. After quickly putting on his mask, he ordered to his followers: "Mount the horse!"

After two months of getting along day and night, he has gradually let most of his troops get rid of the prejudice against him as a eunuch, and now he can enforce orders and prohibitions in this heavy cavalry.

Wow…

One thousand heavy riders quickly remounted their horses, and then they clapped their horses and headed toward the north of the grand competition field to begin this extraordinary exercise.

As early as when the SHIELD Battalion was founded last year, the sergeants of the SHIELD Battalion were already practicing without armor. Now they only need to practice as usual.

Although the most important core training of the army is battle formation, the two basic trainings of horse walking and riding and shooting should not be underestimated.

Take horse walking as an example. This seems to be a very basic training, but it is related to the marching speed of the army and the maneuverability during the battle, so it is also very important.

There are a large number of obstacles on the north side of the main campus of this new camp. Wearing heavy armor, if you want to pass through them smoothly without falling off your horse or other accidents, you must undergo a lot of training and have relatively advanced riding skills.

It's just that nothing can be accomplished overnight. If the SHIELD battalion wants to become an iron-blooded army, it cannot do without daily rigorous training.

The monthly salary of the Aegis Battalion is envied by the Twelve Battalions, but with the current intensity of training, this hard-working heavy cavalry is indeed worthy of this monthly salary.

Especially after they wore heavy armor for training, the risk factor of horse walking and battle formation drills increased, and the number of casualties every day was more than double digits.

"Rapidly advance!" Zhang Yong pulled out his sword and pointed at the obstacle in front of Colonel Yang Bei.

Zhang Yong has a strong say in personnel affairs in the SHIELD camp, so the SHIELD camp has completely abandoned the theory of blood and no longer talks about the background with the soldiers.

If you can't even pass the test of running a horse, then you can abdicate obediently and give way to others, or return to the original 12th Battalion. The threshold for a general now is a qualified cavalryman.

The money offensive that had been tried and tested in the past had no effect at all. If anyone dared to give money in private, Zhang Yong would take the person who gave the money to the stage and announce it to the entire army.

Just like this, Zhang Yong now not only has a high reputation in the army, but this heavy cavalry shows stronger combat effectiveness and execution ability.

"Yes!" A thousand heavy riders responded immediately by increasing their speed.

For a moment, the army rushed towards the obstacle in front of them like a tide, as if they really wanted to go as fast as possible to destroy the enemy.

The obstacle area in the north is very clever. Not only are different obstacles set up on the road, but the road will suddenly become narrower, which is a great test for the cavalry team to march.

this……

Officials such as Li Si, the Minister of Household Affairs, Jia Jun, the Minister of Works, and He Cong, the Left Minister of the Ministry of War, had always thought that the Aegis Camp was a toy for Emperor Hongzhi to spend money on, but when they saw the figures walking through the obstacles, they couldn't help but be stunned.

Ordinarily, this kind of narrow and sometimes wide passage can easily cause people to fall over, so everyone will try to slow down the speed or reduce the number of people, but this heavy horse is not affected.

This is still the disorganized Beijing army they are familiar with. Judging from the marching ability displayed, the current cavalry army is clearly a regular cavalry army.

"His Majesty is here today. We must put our best foot forward and prove that we are worthy of such a high monthly salary and supplies from the court!" The leaders had already known about the 12th Battalion's pay dispute, and now they see the Emperor of Heaven sitting high. On the stage, people were also cheering for morale.

"Yes, there are no cowards in our SHIELD camp!"

"Your Majesty wants to revive the glory of Mingqi, we can't lose face!"

"Yes, we must let the world know about the glory of Camp Aegis. The Twelve Battalions deserve such preferential treatment!"

…

Many of the cavalrymen in the SHIELD Battalion were like-minded people, and they had already resented the 12th Battalion's overpayment, and they immediately responded one after another.

As the last heavy cavalry passed safely, no one among the thousand heavy cavalry lost their chain, which seemed to be smoothly displayed as the results of daily training, proving that they already possess quite excellent maneuverability.

A layman looks at the excitement, an expert looks at the door.

Many of the people accompanying them were knowledgeable about military affairs, and they were secretly amazed to see that the SHIELD battalion had such excellent maneuverability even though they were wearing heavy armor.

"rush!"

"kill!"

"Kill!"

…

Just as a thousand heavy cavalry had just passed through the obstacle area, Tie Xiangshan and Zhao Kai led a thousand light cavalry from the south and west respectively, and rushed straight towards the long snake formation of the heavy cavalry.

Although the Ministry of Industry has worked overtime to rush the production, the number of heavy armors is still insufficient, and the two thousand Aegis Battalion sergeants can only continue to serve as light cavalry for training.

Of course, a sparring partner who doesn't want to be the protagonist is not a good sparring partner. Two Thousand Qingqi also wants to win, especially today on the stage is the Great Tomorrow.

"kill!"

Tie Xiangshan and Zhao Kai took the positions of Qianhu and Deputy Qianhu through their actual ability and leadership, and now they lead a thousand Qingqi respectively, seeming to take the lead in shouting.

The ability of two thousand Qingqi to be selected into the SHIELD Battalion is not weak. In addition, they train unrelentingly on weekdays, and now they have shown good maneuverability.

Except for the lack of heavy armor, their configuration is not much different from that of heavy cavalry.

When they suddenly appeared from the bunker, Jia Jun, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, and Li Qi, the minister of the Ministry of Revenue, were so frightened that they mistakenly thought that the Mongolian cavalry was lurking here, and immediately shouted: "Escort!".

Zhu Youtang was also startled at first, but when he saw the two light cavalry also carrying the "Aegis" flag, he realized that it was entirely because of him that he was scaring himself.

Liu Jin, who was accompanying the driver, had already yelled out one word, but after all, he had some sharp eyesight and swallowed the last word alive.

Fan Jinling was peeling grapes and seemed not at all interested in the military exercise below. The button had been untied at some point and he was kneeling next to Zhu Youtang and feeding Zhu Youtang grapes.

"Formation!"

Zhang Yong did not expect that Tie Xiangshan and Zhao Kai would be so radical and choose to raid his heavy cavalry from the beginning, even if they hurriedly ordered the defense.

Although it had been stated in advance that Qingqi could launch an advance as long as they completed the horse walking training, many people did not expect Tie Xiangshan and Zhao Kai to be so radical.

Facing the sudden attack of light cavalry, a thousand heavy cavalry immediately formed a square formation and did not dare to take this group of old opponents lightly.

Snapped! Snapped! Snapped!

The two armies soon fought together. During the actual combat training, everyone switched to using wooden sticks similar to long knives or short knives, and they fought together in a melee.

To be fair, shorter sticks are stronger. Although a wooden stick cannot kill people, getting a solid blow from a sap will make people doubt their life.

Not to mention Zhu Youtang was watching from above, no one dared to take it lightly even during normal training. Now the various camps are also secretly competing with each other, and they have even developed hatred between each other, and they all want to regain their place in the training.

The strongest point of the SHIELD Battalion is not actually its armament, but the bloody spirit and motivation of each soldier, and they seriously resist every drill.

"Capture the thief first, capture the king, kill him!" Tie Xiangshan was a typical Shandong man, but he relied on his body shape and natural power to immediately lead his team to kill Zhang Yongdao.

The reason why they chose to attack immediately this time was because they wanted to use the mobility of the light cavalry to carry out the beheading plan when Zhang Yonghe's heavy cavalry failed to take precautions.
