C47 (1/2)

Regardless of whether or not the ten Captains of Second Regiment accepted Tang Yin's idea, no one wanted to shoulder the crime of dereliction of duty. The training of the new recruits could be said to be extremely harsh, almost like training a devil.

In the morning, they would train their physical strength, in the morning, they would train their fighting techniques. In the afternoon, they would train their riding or archery techniques, and even if they trained in the evening, they would still have to train in array formations and the evolution of array formations.

In three days, about forty percent of the ten thousand recruits had left, and only six thousand of them had survived. Since there were people that could not take it, he would not force them. After all, this was the survival of the fittest. He went to Wu Mei and asked her for new soldiers. The latter of course agreed.

After adding in the new recruits, three days had passed, but there were still two thousand people who left. Tang Yin went back to ask for more new recruits to fill up the vacancies. This time, Wu Mei was confused as to what Tang Yin was doing, why did he have so many soldiers under his command, and why it was happening so quickly.

However, she understood Tang Yin's temperament and did not question further, so she assigned another two thousand recruits to him.

But in less than two days, Tang Yin had come again. This time, he had to fill in another eight hundred recruits.

This repeated over and over again, until in the end, Wu Mei was almost numb to it. As long as she saw Tang Yin coming to find her, and did not need him to say anything, she would take the initiative to ask.

This situation could be considered to be slightly relieved after half a month had passed.

Tang Yin was quite satisfied with the results of his training for the past half month. He had spent the entire day observing the trainings of the new recruits, and although he did not say anything, he had already memorized every single detail of the training and was considering if there was anything wrong with it.

On the same evening, he found his lodgings with the ten Captains, first to show that he was satisfied with the efforts of the ten Captains, and then to make his own request.

”On the battlefield, speed is of the essence. Our legion is a infantry unit, so whether it be a long journey or a sudden sneak attack, we need to rely on our two legs. That's why, stamina is of the utmost importance.” It's just that I don't have enough physical training in the morning, I guess, ”he looked towards Qiu Zhen as he spoke, and asked,” I see that there's a mountain near the North of City Camp, what's the mountain called?

Qiu Zhen replied: ”Five Sun Mountain, is about fifteen kilometers away from the main camp.”

”Yes!” Tang Yin nodded his head, and said: ”In the future, when we train our physical strength, we will have the new recruits rush to Five Sun Mountain, and travel back and forth for thirty miles in an hour. Also, we cannot go up the battlefield lightly, we must have all our weapons and armor prepared, and we must also carry twenty kilograms of weight with us.”

”Pu!” The ten Captains nearly vomited blood. To finish this in two hours was a bit too difficult for the ordinary soldiers who had never practiced in the Spiritual Martial Force. Right now, the recruits' lineup were barely stable, and if they continued to train like this, perhaps a large number of them would not be able to hold on.

”This way... Isn't it a bit too severe? ” The ten Captains didn't dare to speak, and they all turned to look at Qiu Zhen, who had the closest relationship with Tang Yin. Qiu Zhen understood their difficulties, he leaned forward and asked.

”To suffer through hardship, one must become an outstanding person. This is a principle that has never changed.” Tang Yin said: ”If the Second Infantry Regiment wants to be the strongest in Feng Country, does that mean that if you sit at home and do not move, the strongest title will fall from the sky?”

While he was talking, he stood up and looked around at the crowd. He said faintly, ”When people go up, the water flows down and they live, they must have ambition. Fellow brothers, I hope that our legion will become the best and strongest legion in the entire Feng Country, or even in the entire Empire. ”Since we've chosen to join the army, it is equivalent to giving up our lives. If we don't have the momentum and the motivation to move forward, then what is the point of us in the army?”

Hearing that, everyone was moved, they looked at each other and deeply nodded their heads, then stood up in unison, saying with a loud voice: ”General Tang knows, we will do our best!”

Maybe at the beginning, Deng Mingyang, Lu Bing, Zhang Jiu, Li Feipeng and the others looked down on Tang Yin and thought that he came by virtue of his relationship with them, but now, their impression of Tang Yin had greatly improved. At the very least, he was not the kind of person who would simply eat and wait for death in the army.

”Very good!” Tang Yin looked at the crowd and said, ”As long as we do our best, even if we don't do our best, even if we don't beat the others down, at least we'll be able to feel at ease and not feel any guilt or regret.”

”Yes, General Tang!”

”We've all worked hard this past half month. Let's rest tomorrow!”

This was great news for everyone. After half a month, the new recruits were extremely tired, and they were also extremely tired. For them to get a day's worth of free time, their hearts naturally jumped with joy. Everyone's faces lit up, and the atmosphere in the hall relaxed.

”Alright, that's all I have to say. If there's nothing else, please return.”

”General Tang, this subordinate will take his leave!”

Everyone left happily, but Qiu Zhen did not leave. Instead, he looked at Tang Yin with a strange glow in his eyes.

He raised his eyebrows in doubt and asked, ”What are you looking at? Is there something wrong with my nose? ”

”That's not true. I just feel that you're becoming more and more suitable for the position you're in right now. You're even better than I thought you would be.” Qiu Zhen spoke out his true thoughts.
