"It's very simple. Commander Qin has brought so many forbidden troops here and selected 300 of them. I'll ask Brother Liang to find 300 female soldiers as well. It's just a matter of a real combat exercise between the two sides."
Jin Feng suggested.
"Practical exercise?"
This is the first time Chen Ji has heard of this term.
"The actual combat exercise is a confrontation exercise between the two sides, but the weapons used are wooden weapons without blades." Ninth Princess explained.
"That's it..." Chen Ji thought for a moment, then turned to look at Qin Zhen: "Commander Qin, what do you think?"
"Isn't this bad?" Qin Zhen looked embarrassed.
The Forbidden Army is an elite force guarding the capital. What's going on with a group of girls?
If you win, others will say you bully a girl. If you lose, it will be even more embarrassing.
"What's wrong?" Ninth Princess asked with a frown.
"This..." Qin Zhen said: "The Zhenyuan Army has hot air balloons and grenades. There is no need to compete. They sat on the hot air balloon and threw grenades down and blew us all up!"
"Since sir proposed a battle, he will not use hot air balloons and grenades, but a regular ground attack and defense battle!" Ninth Princess asked: "What other worries does Commander Qin have?"
"I……"
When Qin Zhen saw the serious look on Princess Ninth's face, he knew that he would not be able to escape today's battle, so he had no choice but to shake his head: "No more."
"Since there are none, Commander Qin should arrange for manpower!"
The Ninth Princess didn't give Chen Ji a chance to speak at all and gave the order directly.
Qin Zhen secretly glanced at Chen Ji and found that he nodded slightly, so he had to arrange manpower.
Jin Feng also signaled Liu Tie to arrange for female soldiers.
"Shi Dutong, follow me!"
As the commander-in-chief of the Zhenyuan Army, Liu Tie was a little dissatisfied with Chen Ji's contempt for the female soldiers. Instead of looking for anyone else, he went directly to the place where the horseback riding was practiced and asked Shi Lingyun to beat the gong to gather the female soldiers.
When the female soldiers were assembled, Liu Tie signaled Shi Lingyun to give him a lecture.
"Sisters, the commander of the Forbidden Army looks down on our female soldiers and says that our female soldiers are not good enough. Mr. Jin will fight for you and decide to have a competition with the Forbidden Army. Do you have confidence?"
Shi Lingyun roared at the top of his lungs.
She is Han Feng's wife and the leader of the original group of refugee girls. She has a high prestige among the Zhenyuan Army.
Liu Tie was only dissatisfied with Chen Ji's behavior of belittling female soldiers, but Shi Lingyun, as a personal experiencer of that disaster, was filled with anger at that time.
Chen Ji is the emperor, so she has to hold back the anger in her heart, and can only let it out when giving lectures.
However, she had read a book and knew that it was taboo, so she did not directly say that Chen Ji despised female soldiers, but took the blame on Qin Zhen.
But for female soldiers, the effect is the same.
The female soldiers of the Zhenyuan Army were all refugees from the prison camps. At that time, many girls did not want to live anymore and joined the Zhenyuan Army with the idea of dying and receiving pensions.
But after joining the Zhenyuan Army, the female soldiers' concepts gradually changed.
As promised, Jin Feng not only paid military salaries in full and on time, but also did not discriminate against them at all. As long as they have the ability, they can compete for various positions like men.
In order to allow illiterate girls to have equal opportunities, Jin Feng also opened a literacy class in Zhenyuan Army.
In recent months, more and more female soldiers have begun to attend literacy classes to learn literacy outside of training.
More and more female soldiers have regained their confidence in life and are more grateful to Jin Feng.
But this does not mean that the girls have forgotten the tragic experience. When Shi Lingyun said that the imperial army despised them and underestimated Jin Feng, the girls were all as angry as Shi Lingyun.
As soon as Shi Lingyun finished speaking, three hundred female soldiers roared in unison: "Fight!"
Chen Ji was standing not far away, his ears buzzing from the sound of the girls' voices, and he couldn't help but turn his head and look over.
At this time, the logistics department had already sent over the equipment needed for the exercise. Following Shi Lingyun's order, the three hundred female soldiers picked up the equipment and quickly formed an array.
In less than a minute, the female soldiers formed a classic arrow formation and stood ready.
Looking at the Forbidden Army, Qin Zhen hasn't even finished gathering yet.
"If it were on the battlefield, the Imperial Army might not even have a chance to form a formation."
The Ninth Princess sighed helplessly.
Even Chen Ji, who didn't understand military formations, could see the difference between female soldiers and forbidden troops.
Qin Zhen's face was also burning at this time, and he kicked and kicked him, urging the imperial troops to form their formation as soon as possible.
Fortunately, the Forbidden Army usually trained very strictly and did not embarrass Qin Zhen for too long. The formation was quickly completed and they formed a square formation common in Dakang.
When Jin Feng saw both sides forming up, he ordered the drill to begin.
The female soldiers were all simmering with anger. As soon as they saw Jin Feng's order, under the leadership of Shi Lingyun, they took the initiative to launch a fierce charge towards the Forbidden Army.
In fact, many Imperial Guardsmen, like Chen Ji, despised the female soldiers from the bottom of their hearts. They did not expect that the female soldiers would dare to initiate an attack and were caught off guard.
The female soldiers' arrow formation used Shi Lingyun as the arrow, and they plunged into the square formation of the Forbidden Army without hesitation.
The two outer rows of female soldiers all wore black armor, using their bodies as shields and hunched over to resist the imperial guards.
They are all strength players selected from female soldiers, and their average strength is not much weaker than that of male soldiers.
Behind them, the spearmen among the female soldiers stabbed the face and neck of the Imperial Guard with their spears.
These spears were made of wood and had no blades, so they could not kill anyone. However, the tips of the spears and both blades were painted with color. As long as they hit the target, the opponent would be killed.
The female soldier in the center of the battle formation quickly raised her crossbow and fired rapidly at the imperial army.
Shi Lingyun's training for female soldiers is very targeted. The two outer rows of female soldiers are all strength athletes, and their main training task is to practice strength.
The main training task of spearmen is to practice thrusting.
Every spearman must stab the wooden stakes at least thousands of times every day.
The practice stakes are not fixed, but sway back and forth, left and right.
There are also strict assessment standards for the speed, strength, and accuracy of stabbing.
For the archers at the center, the main part of their daily training is shooting.
Not only shooting accuracy is required, but also shooting speed.
The female soldiers were holding back their anger and were very ruthless in their attacks. However, there were still many people on the Forbidden Army side who were still concerned about the gender of the female soldiers, and some couldn't let go.
The morale of one of the two warring parties is high, and the morale of the other is low. The result can be imagined.
The female soldier's arrow formation directly penetrated the Forbidden Army and divided the Forbidden Army's square formation into two.
Just when Chen Ji thought that the female soldiers would turn around and fight back, who knew that Shi Lingyun actually led the female soldiers straight to Qin Town, as if he was trying to capture the thief first.
"I……"
Qin Zhen wanted to curse at this moment.
At his speed, it would be impossible for the female soldiers to catch up with him if he wanted to run.
But as the commander of the imperial army, the emperor was still watching, so where was he going?
