"That's right, don't be a deserter on the battlefield. That will only be more embarrassing."

The skinny soldiers glared angrily at the strong soldiers.

"Master Mu, I'm going to challenge them."

A thin man who was almost the same height as Liu Qian stood up. His face was full of determination and he showed no intention of backing down.

Mu Nanjin asked him: "What's your name?"

"Jiang Zan."

"I remember your name." Mu Nanjin looked at the other soldiers and asked, "Who else wants to challenge me?"

"I."

"I."

"And me."

Fifty soldiers came out one after another.

They walked to the center of the drill field, and Jiang Zan pointed at the tallest and strongest soldier and said, "I want to challenge you."

The tallest and strongest soldier was named Lai Deng. When he saw Jiang Zan pointing at him, he was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Are you sure you want to choose me?"

"Yes." Jiang Zan had no intention of backing down.

"Very good, you have guts. I admire you. What's your name?"

Lai Deng walked into the training ground while talking to him.

"Jiang Zan."

Lai Deng twisted his neck and said, "Jiang Zan, don't cry when I beat you to a pulp."

Jiang Zan said: "I won't cry. Similarly, if you lose, don't cry either."

"How could I lose to you?"

Lai Deng laughed and suddenly punched Jiang Zan.

Jiang Zan dodged the opponent's fist quickly, and nimbly slipped under the opponent's armpit like a monkey, while picking up a stone from the ground. Then he jumped up and stepped on the opponent's thigh, flipped over to the opponent's back, strangled the opponent's neck with one hand, and used the stone he had just picked up to press against the blood vessels on Lai Deng's neck with the other hand: "Don't move, you lose."

Lai Deng thought the other party was holding a dagger and immediately dared not move.

Captain Li came to his senses and shouted, "Lai Deng, you lost, you leave the field."

"I lost?" Lai Deng looked at Captain Li in disbelief: "How could I lose?"

And how could he lose so quickly? "If the opponent was an enemy with a dagger in his hand, you would be a corpse by now."

Captain Li didn't dare to believe that Lai Deng would lose to the weak Jiang Zan.

I have to say that Mu Nanjin is quite good at training soldiers.

Lai Deng: “…”

Jiang Zan slid off him.

Jiang Zan's companions cheered: "Jiang Zan, good job."

The thin soldiers suddenly became confident and came forward to ask Jiang Zan about his secret to defeating Lai Deng.

Jiang Zan didn't know what to say: "I just reacted instinctively. I don't have any special tricks. You will know what's going on when you fight them."

The thin soldiers selected candidates one after another, and then during the competition, they found that their bodies had become lighter, their movements had become faster, and their reactions had become more agile.

When the opponent is punching, they feel that the opponent's movements are too slow and cannot keep up with their speed at all. Then, they can win the game by just hitting the opponent's weaknesses.

Of course, speed is not suitable for everyone, and they have only trained for more than ten days, so it is impossible for everyone to beat the strong soldiers. In the end, only more than 300 people won the competition.

It is already amazing that Sha Ping loves them.

They didn't expect that Mu Nanjin was not training strength or other martial arts, but to improve their speed so that the thin soldiers could eliminate the enemy as quickly as possible.

General Dingguo comforted the soldiers who lost the game: "You have only trained for more than ten days and you can fight with other soldiers for more than ten moves, or even dozens of moves before you lose. It is already very impressive. As long as you work harder, it is only a matter of time before you win. So don't be discouraged, give yourself more confidence."

The thin soldiers were very excited: "Yes."

General Dingguo and his men stepped aside to let Mu Nanjin speak.

Mu Nanjin said, "I said before that the winner will get a reward. Jiang Zan, take them to the ten big tents at the back to have a look."

"Yes." Jiang Zan led the soldiers who won the match into the tent at the back.

Then, a "wow" was heard from the tent, and excited voices were heard from inside.

The losing soldiers were curious about what happened inside.

Jiang Zan came out and said, "Master Mu, is this for us?"

Mu Nanjin nodded.

"Great, thank you Master Mu."

Jiang Zan retreated back into the tent: "Brothers, Lord Mu said it's for us, everyone hurry up and try it on."

"Very good."

About a quarter of an hour later, the soldiers in the tent finally came out.

Each of them was wearing a fiery red armor, the style of which looked like an armor modified from an assassin's nightgown. It was not only handsome and light, but also could protect their body parts. There were two daggers inserted in their legs, like well-trained elite soldiers, with helmets on their heads and masks on their faces. The masks could cover their fragile necks to prevent others from getting hurt.

“Wow wow wow…”

The soldier who lost the game looked at Jiang Zan and his team with envy: "It was so good."

At this time, Liu Qian and his men came over leading more than 300 horses. Each horse was black and wearing domineering black armor. Not only were the soldiers envious, but even the generals were drooling at the sight.

Jiang Zan asked excitedly: "Master Mu, are these horses given to us as a reward?"

Mu Nanjin nodded: "Yes, these horses are rewards for you. In addition, you may rest today and tomorrow, and I will invite you to the city for dinner tomorrow. Tomorrow morning at 11:00 a.m., you must wear armor and ride your war horses to report to my Mu Mansion."

"good."

Jiang Zan and his friends couldn't wait to ride their horses on the training ground.

Mu Nanjin turned to look at the losing soldier and asked, "Do you want it?"

The soldiers nodded vigorously: "Yes."

"Then you must work harder. When you win the next competition, I will also reward you with armor and horses."

"Great." The soldiers jumped up excitedly: "Master Mu, we will definitely work hard."

"Okay, now let's talk about the punishment. That is, you have to go back to the woods to train, and you can't rest tomorrow. Because if you lose, you have to be more diligent than others. Only by working harder can you surpass others."

"yes."

The soldiers put on sandbags and ran towards the woods without any complaints.

Jiang Zan and his men were not complacent about their victory. When they saw the losing soldiers going to the woods, they quickly dismounted, changed their armor, and went to the woods with sandbags to train.

Sha Pingai walked up to Mu Nanjin and asked, "Master Mu, the armor you gave them was not made of the materials delivered to the Mu Mansion a few days ago, right?"

"Um."

Sha Ping looked at her in surprise: "How could you make hundreds of armors in just a few days?"

"yes."

“This is too fast.”

Sha Pingai wanted to ask her how she made it, but when she thought that Mu Nanjin didn't tell them on her own initiative, she didn't dare to ask more.

Two minutes before the next morning, Jiang Zan and his men, wearing red armor and riding war horses, arrived at the Mu Mansion to report. (End of this chapter)
