Black Fairy, the master is a female ghost

Five days passed by unnoticed.

During these five days, Lu Xunhuan led the soldiers of the Left Camp and maintained high-intensity training.

Of course, over the past five days, the number of soldiers who insisted on training has been greatly reduced every day.

At the hour of Mao on the morning of the sixth day, only four thousand of the ten thousand soldiers had arrived, excluding the one thousand cavalrymen who were grazing their horses outside the city.

In other words, five thousand soldiers did not come to training.

After Lu Xunhuan gathered everyone together, he stood on the podium and asked, "After five days of training, how do you feel? Do you feel more energetic than before?"

Below, the soldiers answered in unison: "Yes."

Lu Xunhuan applauded. "Very good, everyone. This captain's training method is designed to cultivate the strongest soldiers. As for those who can't hold on and leave, this captain understands them and won't blame them, because they really only have that upper limit of their abilities. It's impossible to train them to be stronger."

"But you are different. You are much stronger than them. You will be the core strength of my Zuoying in the future."

He asked, "How many captains, centurions, and corporals are missing? Please count them and I will promote the newcomers now."

After a statistics, it was found that of the ten thousand-man captains, except Fan Tong who was recuperating from his injuries, the other six were absent; of the one hundred centurions, more than sixty were absent; and of the five hundred sergeants, two hundred were absent.

Therefore, Lu Xunhuan did not train this morning and reappointed a group of new captains, centurions and sergeants.

He first filled in the backbone, and there were many missing soldiers under the backbone, so he would recruit new soldiers later to fill in the gaps.

After lunch, everything was settled.

In the Zuoying cafeteria, Lu Xunhuan said to everyone, "Everyone, you've worked hard these past few days. Let's relax today. No training this afternoon. Let's sing."

"Good!" There was thunderous applause, and the soldiers were surprised and happy.

Lu Xun Huan asked, "Do you have any military songs, the kind that boost morale?"

A centurion said, "Sir, these songs are all sung by the people. I have never heard of military songs."

Lu Xun Huan shook his head: "No, an army should have its own military song. With a song, there is a fighting spirit. With a fighting spirit, the strength of the entire army can be united, and only then can we be invincible and unstoppable."

Below, the soldiers discussed it in whispers, and nodded in agreement, believing it to be reasonable.

Lu Xunhuan thought for a moment and asked, "Is there anyone in Zhongzhou City who is good at writing lyrics and composing music?"

A captain raised his hand and said, "Your Excellency, yes."

Lu Xun Huan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go visit him later and ask him to write a high-spirited military song for us."

"Hahahaha..." Some soldiers below burst into laughter.

Lu Xunhuan asked, "What's wrong?"

The captain reported, "Report, the most famous person in Zhongzhou City who can both write lyrics and compose music is Miss Liu Feier, the top performer in Mingyue Tower."

Lu Xunhuan asked, "Have you seen it?"

The centurion quickly shook his head: "No, no..."

Below, the soldiers burst into laughter.

The centurion turned around and said, "What are you laughing at? I really don't have any. I'm not qualified to see..."

Everyone burst into laughter again.

The captain's face turned red.

Lu Xun Huan smiled slightly and said, "Okay, I won't explain anymore, lest I make things worse."

He cleared his throat and said, "Come, I'll teach you the battle cry first, and then I'll teach you the song."

"A battle cry, a single roar alone is ineffective; it must be roared by thousands of soldiers together, with anger, contempt, and an invincible aura, to intimidate the enemy."

"Come on, everyone roar with me."

"Roar……"

Below, the soldiers followed suit: "Roar..."

Lu Xun Huan said, "It's not in order. Come on, let's all shout together."

"Roar……"

"Roar……"

After practicing for about an incense stick of time, Lu Xun Huan nodded in satisfaction: "Very good. Now, let's go to the training ground, grab our shields and swords, and go roar there."

Soon, the soldiers ran from the dining hall to the training ground, each holding a shield and a sword, and lined up in neat formations.

Lu Xunhuan stood on the platform and shouted, "Everyone, look at my flag signal. The waving of the red flag is a pure war cry. Come, give it a try."

He raised the red flag in his hand and waved it.

"Roar……"

From below, a deafening, soul-stirring war cry was heard.

"Roar……"

"Roar……"

The sound waves shook the sky, and the trees around the training ground fluttered with noises, startling many birds.

Outside the gate of the training ground, the deserters from the left camp gathered. They were originally organized to cause trouble.

But the deafening roar in the training ground scared everyone so much that they stayed where they were and dared not move.

On the high platform, Lu Xunhuan asked everyone to stop after yelling for a while.

"Everyone, besides our voices, we can also use our shields and swords. Come, look at my flag signal. Waving the red and blue flags together is a battle cry plus a shield strike. One battle cry, three strikes. Do you understand?"

Below, the soldiers loudly replied, "I heard it clearly."

Lu Xunhuan nodded: "Okay, let's try it."

He raised his hands, holding up both the red and blue flags, and waved them simultaneously.

Below, the soldiers opened their mouths and shouted: "Roar..."

After the roar, everyone swung their swords and slapped their shields: "clang...clang...clang..."

Lu Xunhuan waved the flag, causing everyone to stop. "Very good, but not quite in order. Try again, and keep it in line."

He raised his hands again and waved the red and blue flags.

"Roar……"

“Clang…clang…clang…”

"Roar……"

“Clang…clang…clang…”

Inside the training ground, the atmosphere was full of vigor and the roars shook the heavens.

Outside the training ground gate, thousands of deserters were stunned by what they heard.

Everyone originally came here to cause trouble, to challenge Lu Xunhuan and to drive him out of office.

But when they heard the roar inside, everyone felt a huge psychological shock. Many soldiers felt ashamed and retreated, not wanting to cause trouble anymore.

Many soldiers also regretted their decision and wanted to go back and train with Lu Xunhuan.

At the training ground, Lu Xunhuan had everyone roar in unison for a stick of incense, and then ended today's battle cry training.

He said loudly on the podium: "Now, I will teach you a song. Once you learn it, you can go home."

"Good," the soldiers below cheered again.

While everyone was learning the battle cry, he was thinking about the song.

He picked a song he had learned in his previous life, thought about it silently, and changed some of the lyrics.

He cleared his throat again and said, "Everyone, please listen to me sing it again."

"The wind is howling, the horses are neighing, the soldiers are roaring, the soldiers are roaring..."

"The hills of Hebei are towering, and the rice is ripe on both sides of the river..."

"There are so many passionate heroes in this vast country..."

"A million strong soldiers, with the courage to swallow mountains and rivers and step into the clouds..."

……

This song, when thousands of people sang it together in chorus, was so powerful.

A golden horse and an iron horse, swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger.

In addition, the melody was beautiful and the momentum was overwhelming, so the soldiers loved it as soon as they sang it.

Over and over again, everyone sang with passion and intoxicated.

The majestic singing spread far and wide, shaking the whole city.

Although the soldiers who came to cause trouble retreated after hearing the war cries and songs.

But those who impeached Lu Xunhuan still proceeded as planned.

Captain Qin of the Right Camp and Captain Li of the Central Camp wrote a long report listing the absurdities of Lu Xunhuan's military training.

It contains detailed data, such as how many soldiers were knocked unconscious by the training, how many thousand-man commanders resisted, how many centurions complained, how many sergeants left the left camp, and how many soldiers requested to be transferred to other camps.

At the end of the report, there is a long list of signatures.

In addition to Captain Qin and Captain Li, in addition to the captains, centurions and squad leaders who escaped from the left camp, there were more than ten officials from Zhongzhou Prefecture.

A group of officials took advantage of the time when the prefect was handling official business in the classroom and came forward to submit an impeachment report, demanding that the prefect remove Lu Xunhuan from his military post.

Just when the prefect was under great pressure and had a headache, a majestic singing voice reached the provincial government office.

The governor asked, "Where does the singing come from?"

A yamen runner came and reported: "My Lord, it is the soldiers of the Left Camp who are singing."

The prefect glanced over the report again and said, "However, even if we want to dismiss Lu Xunhuan, we must summon him and hear his explanation. What do you think?"

Captain Qin of the Right Camp said, "Sir, he tortured the soldiers like animals. Isn't that enough? Do we still need to listen to his explanation?"

The prefect turned his gaze to Shen Jin's father, Shen Tongpan. "Old Shen, I've been thinking about this for a while now. We're located on the border of the empire, and 30,000 reserve troops is a bit insufficient. So I'm planning to request 40,000 reserve troops from the capital. That way, we'll need four military camps and four captains. What do you think?"

Upon hearing this, Judge Shen bowed hastily. "Your Excellency is very considerate of the country and its people. However, even if we add another battalion, Lu Xunhuan, a celestial being, doesn't know how to train troops. We should have him return to Dengtianmen immediately to avoid delaying his training and being blamed by the capital city if he suffers a defeat in the future."

Adding a battalion is naturally a good thing for Shen Tongpan. In that way, his son Shen Jin can become a captain.

But he was afraid that the prefect was just talking, trying to calm him down temporarily while he applied to Kyoto City for an additional battalion, but he didn't know how long it would take.

Therefore, the safest thing to do is to expel Lu Xunhuan immediately and let Shen Jin become the captain of the left camp.

The prefect stroked his beard and said, "Three days, everyone, please think about it for another three days. How about that?"

Judge Shen shook his head: "Sir, if we wait another three days, all the soldiers in the Left Camp will flee. How about this, we will have concrete results tomorrow at the latest."

The prefect nodded and said, "Okay, we'll have the results tomorrow."
