The Great Qin Empire---Qin Li

In fact, not only in the eyes of outsiders, Heifu's training method is seeking death. After standing for a day, even Guishi had strange voices...

Ping's family lives in the county town. They are a middle-class family. They have not suffered much on weekdays. Today, he has been exposed to the scorching sun for half a day just to learn to stand. He sat on the straw couch, rubbing his sore feet, and began to complain in a low voice.

"This officer Heifu is indeed serving for the first time. I see that the other squads are training lively, but we are standing still for a long time. Chaobo is an old soldier. You have something to say!"

Chaobo was silent for a long time before saying: "Heifu's training method is indeed different from my past dozen or so service..."

"That's right!"

His words were agreed by Ping, and the two brothers Ke and Bu also nodded. They all felt that this training method was useless.

These words disappeared after Heifu and Dongmenbao pushed the door open. In the past two days, the two who were once as hostile as fire and water have become more and more intimate.

Although Dongmenbao has good personal martial arts and strength, he is very slow in learning the rules of the army. Fortunately, he is unwilling to lag behind and is very strong. So Heifu will give him a half-hour special meal in the afternoon. After all, as a squad leader, he must not make mistakes. Finally, before sunset, the two will throw daggers at the tree stump for entertainment.

After the squad leaders and squad leaders united, all the voices of opposition dared only grumble secretly and dared not complain in person.

However, everyone did not know that these words had already been heard by Ji Ying, who was pretending to sleep under the quilt.

Before nightfall, when Heifu went to the toilet, Ji Ying caught up with him and told him the complaints he heard when he pretended to sleep.

"It's okay. After two days, they will know the benefits of today's training." Hei Fu smiled and didn't take it seriously. A standard standing is the basis of the military formation. If they can't even stand straight, what other complicated movements can they talk about?

On the second day, that is, the morning of October 4, the sun rose again. On the parade ground, Hei Fu and his class had roughly known where they should stand, and they didn't have to wander around like headless flies like yesterday.

In addition, everyone's standing barely met the standard, at least they could stand straight. Hei Fu didn't dare to ask these Qin soldiers and civilians to meet the standards of the police academy in his previous life.

So the work of the whole morning was to learn to squat and stand at the same time under the leadership of Hei Fu. This is the "sitting and standing up" in Wu Zi's Art of War.

Before the battle, there was a long period of time to arrange the troops; after the front-line troops went up to fight, the reserve troops had to wait for a long time, sometimes for several hours. For such a long time, the soldiers certainly couldn't stand with their blades like in ancient costume TV dramas, but had to "sit", which was actually squatting, so as to save some energy.

In order to make the movements look uniform, Hei Fu made improvements and decomposed the whole movement. When hearing "sit", everyone should not squat down, but first step back half a step with the right foot, and then squat down, letting the heel support the body. The same is true when "standing up".

With the foundation of standing yesterday, by the time of breakfast, all the people in the squad were basically able to squat down and stand up at the same time. Anyone who broke the rhythm would be mercilessly whipped. Now even the old soldier Chao Bo was amazed and felt that Hei Fu's training method was indeed much faster than his previous training of more than ten or twenty times.

However, in the eyes of the other squads, Heifu and his squad did nothing all morning. They just stood up and squatted, squatted and stood up...

For a while, the squad leaders and sergeants who were dissatisfied with Heifu's claim to win the championship all looked contemptuous and began to think that Heifu was just a boaster and had no real ability.

When Heifu and his team passed by Guishi, the Jiashi next to him suddenly started to make a noise: "Isn't this Guishi who wants to win the first place in the competition? Why are you standing up and down here all morning? Are you afraid to walk?"

The people in Guishi were laughed at, but most of them dared not speak out.

"How dare you!" Only the irritable Dongmen Bao was furious. He almost jumped up and beat up those people who made noises. Heifu quickly held him tightly.

The people in the opposite Jiashi were also scolded by their squad leader and stopped laughing jokingly.

"I really offended you just now." The well-dressed captain of the Jiashi opposite took the initiative to come over and bow to Heifu. He was slightly fat and ruddy, which was rare in the malnourished Gengshi.

This was the first time he communicated with people from other squads. Heifu replied: "I am Heifu, the captain of Guishi. I wonder what your name is..."

"I am the captain of Jiashi. I am a senior officer. I have served many times and am also an old soldier."

The visitor seemed polite, but his arrogance was obvious. After all, his title was one level higher than Heifu's, and he was much older. And judging from his clothes, especially the belt around his waist, there were various patterns, and the bronze beast on it was holding a turquoise in its mouth.

Heifu estimated that this belt alone was worth at least 700 or 800 coins, which was more expensive than his clothes. Well, this guy looked like a rich man.

"My name is Yuanbai." The man introduced himself.

"Yuanbai?" Heifu pondered the name. He seemed to have heard it somewhere. After a long while, he suddenly remembered it!

This name of Yuanbai seemed to have been mentioned in a TV program in his previous life. Wasn't he the guy who lent money to Heifu brothers in the military camp, and then desperately pressed for repayment, forcing them to write letters home for help! I never thought that I would run into him here. The saying is really true, enemies will always meet...

Yuanbai didn't say anything polite. He just exchanged a few words and then explained his purpose.

"Captain Heifu is confident that Guishi will win the first place in the competition. Does he really want General Bin to compete with Yuequying on the training ground?"

Heifu was not modest and said with a smile: "I won't say anything I'm not sure of."

Yuanbai was stunned. He didn't believe it, but still said kindly: "Since you are so confident, why don't you compete with Jiashi?"

"Jiashi wants to compete with Guishi?"

After hearing Yuanbai's intention, Heifu became alert and looked at this guy who looked rich and had a rosy face.

"The Ten-day Competition is originally a test and comparison of ten classes in front of the county lieutenant. What else is there to compete for?"

Yuan Bai shook his head and said with a smile: "The competition I'm talking about is an agreement between you and me. If Gui Shi gets first place in the Ten-day Competition, what will happen? If Gui Shi doesn't get first place, what will happen..."

Hei Fu understood a little. Isn't it just a fight? In the previous life in the police academy, there were often competitions between classes. The loser had to treat everyone to a meal...

However, Yuan Bai had a big appetite. He stretched out a finger and said: "If Gui Shi gets first place, I will give you one thousand coins. If Gui Shi doesn't get first place, you give me one thousand coins. How about it?"

One thousand coins is exactly the reward money Hei Fu got from the government for capturing the thief. This guy named Yuan Bai is very calculating.

Hei Fu had a plan for his training, and of course he was not afraid of Yuan Bai. He just showed hesitation in a tactic of playing hard to get, and shook his head and said, "This is not appropriate. I heard that the Qin law stipulates that if the scholars and civilians gamble, they will be fined two armors."

"This is not gambling!"

Yuan Bai hurriedly explained, "You and I are not playing six-game, chess, or throwing pots to bet money, but using money as a reward to encourage each other to train. This is a good thing, how can it be called gambling? If you don't believe it, I can also let the government clerks come to be witnesses and help you and me sign the contract!"

"Is that so?" Hei Fu said with a smile, "If so, I am willing to try, but..."

"Just what?"

Hei Fu looked at the valuable belt around Yuan Bai's waist and smiled, "It's just one thousand coins, too little!"
