Chapter 422: Two Armies Confronted
Yan Sanlang is not very old, probably in his early twenties.
When he was a young master in Sui'an City, he was naturally fair-skinned and noble, with a look like Pan An. But after two years of training, he looked no different from other soldiers in the army.
If he didn't mention it, no one else would notice that he was a young master in the Earl's mansion.
While cooperating with the two brothers from the navy camp behind him, he also showed certain leadership. It seems that he has learned a lot from following General Chu Weitian in the past few months.
On the other hand, Ni Yang, Zheng Deli and Mu Lianying, who were all well-trained, were more patient than Yan Sanlang. Even Old Zheng, who was usually a bully, was as calm as a black panther waiting to pounce on its prey, and not a single move was unnecessary.
After six people from both sides fought back and forth several times according to the terrain, the Navy Battalion was finally defeated. When they saw the result, not to mention Yan Sanlang on the field, even Commander Pang of the Navy Battalion was extremely impressed.
This Commander Pang is now over fifty years old.
He looks quite elegant, but the navy battalion he trains is not inferior to the Tiger Guards. It's just that because naval battles are different from land battles, the degree of coordination among the soldiers is still slightly inferior.
"Hahahaha, they are indeed the Tiger Guards that the general has personally trained for so many years. Every one of them is a good man. I will set up a banquet in the camp later, and I will definitely toast them properly!"
He knew about Ni Yang and Zheng Deli.
How could I not recognize him, two of the twelve deputy generals in the Tiger Guards?
But Mu Lianying was obviously a young hero, so Commander Pang also saw that the Tiger Guards had a good inheritance between the old and the young. The deputy generals of the previous generation were still of the right age, and the good seedlings of the next generation had begun to be promoted.
What is rare is that there has never been any suppression or fear of being in the spotlight between the two, which can be seen from the training just now.
Therefore, Commander Pang also envied such a military atmosphere.
"Commander Pang is too polite. These people from the Navy Camp are also very good."
Gu Shaoyu is a man who never speaks empty words. If he thinks something is not possible, even if mountains of gold and silver are placed in front of him, he will not say a good word. But if he thinks something is possible, then he doesn't need to make excuses, because it means it is really possible.
So the three people, including Yan Sanlang, all had a look of confidence and pride on their faces. If Luo Yuan were there, he would definitely say that his smile was like a rotten persimmon flower.
This confrontation was just the beginning. Later, the Navy Battalion and the Tiger Guards formed teams of ten and launched various confrontations, which were quite successful.
Compared to practicing skills in the camp, such "communication" has benefited both parties a lot.
So in just over twenty days, it can be seen that they have absorbed a lot from each other.
The flexibility of the navy battalion and the bravery of the Tiger Guards were unconsciously passed on to the other side during the training process. Therefore, the competition in the wilderness outside Qingshui Town was in full swing day by day.
Seeing this situation, the common people would feel that they were born in a stable era. No matter what, they have a sense of abundance from the bottom of their hearts.
Therefore, from time to time, there would be curious people lingering outside the camp, some bringing food and some just coming to watch the fun.
Gu Shaoyu discussed it with his neighbor and decided to set a date in early September, when they would invite all the dignitaries and common people in Jinling to watch the training together.
As soon as this news came out, many people were very excited.
Those who had previously been skeptical about the purpose of the Tiger Guards' coming here now felt a little relieved.
Among these people, naturally, was the very unhappy Gu Yanxing.
Anyway, his city defense army does have some skills, but for this training, not to mention Gu Shaoyu, even Commander Pang didn't think of calling him to join, so the whole person exudes a strange and changeable aura, making people afraid to approach casually.
Poor soldiers of the city defense army, they have to almost double their daily training workload for no apparent reason, and they are complaining bitterly.
The sun sets, the moon rises, the morning sun rises again, and soon it is the first birthday of the three brothers.
June 29th, Wangjiang Tower.
The first birthday banquet for Ming'er, Cong'er and Wen'er was scheduled to be held in Shuyue Pavilion on the third floor of Wangjiang Tower after Du Jingyi, Madam Xing and others did some investigation.
The view here is the best. Not only is it spacious enough, but as Mrs. Xing said, the evening glow shines on the river, and it is so beautiful that the sky and the earth share the same color.
It was a rare opportunity to relax like this, so after getting up in the morning and making some preparations, everyone went out and headed straight for the Wangjiang Tower, intending to have lunch, a nap, and dinner in Shuyue Pavilion of the Wangjiang Tower before coming back.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Because it was a family event, everyone in the family was present, including Gu Xiaoyun, who had just finished her confinement, and Zhong Ge'er, who was still in her infant clothes. As for other families, only the women were invited to join in the fun. As for the men, there were Xing Zhao, Yan Sanlang, and people from the Su family. There were no others.
Since the death of Old Madam Gu, the family had not gone out for banquets or other happy events, so everyone was happy this time.
Everything in Shuyue Pavilion was carefully arranged by the shopkeeper, so there were three rooms for the children to take a nap, and the seats for everyone to chat and have tea were also properly arranged. When it came to the final dinner, six tables were reserved.
We will have our meals together in Shuyue Pavilion.
Behind closed doors, this can be described as a rare and peaceful paradise.
Du Jingyi also wanted to use this opportunity of celebrating the children's birthdays to find another way to make money for Wangjiang Tower.
I believe that in the near future we will see that Wangjiang Tower will transform the several rooms on the third floor into this way, so as to accommodate more distinguished guests and hold banquets.
It was also the first time for the children to climb up to the top and see the view from afar. The scenery was so beautiful that even the usually elegant and quiet Jin'er couldn't help but dance with joy, not to mention the three young boys who were the protagonists today.
The three of them were all dressed very formally today, wearing blue brocade and looking like children from wealthy families. Their eyes and brows were full of ease and confidence, and one could tell how favored they were at home.
Now is the time when the three children want to learn to walk, but their chubby legs limit this dream. They move around and walk on tiptoe. The wet nurses dare not make any mistakes and pull them along.
Having experienced the process of Tai Ge'er learning to walk and talk, Du Jingyi is not anxious about it. As long as the children are healthy, that's all.
