Chapter 71: The Iron Army Takes Shape

  (PS: Some book friends have been mentioning the group number, and comments are not allowed in the review area. I'll mention it here, the group number is: 18117601. Continue to ask for recommendation votes.)

  It can't be denied that Qin's family village has a very nourishing feng shui, it is absolutely an ideal environment for warriors to cultivate.

  Originally, Qin Wusong had planned to spend three months completing the basic training of this batch of guards. Unexpectedly, after just one month of hard work, the effect has almost reached that of three months.

  Qin Wushuang was overjoyed and planned to take a step ahead of schedule.

  At this time, the team had assembled. Waiting for Qin Wushuang to issue orders. After more than a month of training, everyone was already fully accustomed to this high-intensity training.

  Qin Wushuang smiled and said, "Today's training has new lessons and new gains. Everyone must work hard. The results of this month's efforts are all in my eyes. Your sweat will not be wasted. Today, the effect of special training will be initially verified!"

  This remark immediately sparked everyone's interest. Was it finally time to test the results of more than a month of devil training?

  With this, everyone worked harder to complete their morning and afternoon classes.

  After noon, before the assembly time had arrived, all the guards had gathered together in the martial arts arena. From their enthusiastic expressions, it could be seen that they were all very eager.

  After all, it's been a month of hard work, and everyone wants to know whether this special training can meet the young master's expectations and how much actual improvement there is.

  Qin Lianchuang arrived, and then Qin Wushuang also came.

  As they watched the young master and the captain arrive one after another, everyone's breathing became more urgent, and the light in their eyes became even more fervent. Before Qin Lianchuang could give the order, the team had already formed up neatly.

  Qin Wushuang watched this scene with great comfort - the people's hearts can be used indeed.

  "Lian Chuan uncle, this month, how do you think brothers have improved?"

  "Four words - reborn from the bones!" Qin Lianchuan was concise. His admiration for Qin Wushuang had already reached an unprecedented level.

  This training method was unheard of, and its effect was something he had never dared to dream of before.

  "Alright, today we'll test and see if their progress can truly be described as 'transformed beyond recognition'!"

  Qin Wushuang took out a list from his sleeve and handed it to Qin Lianchuan: "Uncle Lianchuan, please check the names. They are divided into three batches. You point them out separately."

  Qin Lianchuan looked at the list, nodded, cleared his throat and said loudly: "Everyone listen carefully, the first batch of 40 people, those whose names are called, come to the front and line up in two teams!"

  "Agreed!"

  "Alright, Qin Yong, Qin Fei, Qin Tong, Qin Ming..."

  In one breath, forty names were called out. Those whose names were mentioned immediately stepped forward and lined up neatly in two rows of twenty people each.

  "You forty people with long arms and slender waists, quick reactions, and calm minds are most suitable for being archers. Form a team, the team name is 'Fei Yu'! Remember?"

  "Roar!"

  The order was given and these forty men responded in unison without any hesitation.

  Qin Wushuang nodded in satisfaction. This group of people, as he had observed, indeed reacted the most quickly, and even when receiving orders, their reaction time was a bit faster.

  "The second batch, forty people, are as follows: Qin Yue, Qin Nan, Qin Fang..."

  Forty men lined up again, arranged in two rows, with a serious expression, waiting for Qin Lianchuang's next move.

  "You forty men, with bravery surpassing others, robust and agile in physique, bold and fierce in character, suitable for close combat and charging into the fray. Formed into one team, named 'Xiong Bi', can you remember?"

  "Roar!"

  "The third batch, nineteen people, list as follows..."

  The last nineteen people, seeing that all their companions had been selected, and only they were left behind, felt a little uneasy and unfair in their hearts. In the usual training, they performed very well, even better than some of their companions, so why didn't they enter the main lineup?

  "Hmm, you nineteen, aren't you a bit discontent?" Qin Wushuang suddenly took a step forward and asked with a smile.

  These nineteen men were originally the more elite members of the guard, and they had been holding back their anger for a long time. When Qin Wushuang asked this question, every single one of them turned bright red with rage.

  It can be seen from their eyes and expressions that they are all turbulent in their hearts. It is the same month of hard work, the same month of struggle, their efforts are not less than others, their performance is not weaker than others, why do they end up last?

  To say I'm not feeling wronged would be a lie!

  "Very well, if you're not satisfied, then show it. My brave warriors!" Qin Wusuo clapped his hands and laughed, "I'm delighted to tell you that putting you last is not because of your poor performance, but rather a reward for you! You nineteen will form a team called 'Hunting Hawk', what's special about hawks?"

  Qin Wushuang's tone drew out, and his expression suddenly turned stern as he barked: "What are the characteristics of an eagle? Who can answer me?"

  "Fierce!"

  "Good at pouncing!"

  "Sharp vision, with a wide angle of observation!"

  "Eagle soars through the vast sky, majestic! Overbearing!"

  Various answers, not one is enough. Qin Wushuang nodded lightly and waited for everyone to finish speaking before standing up to summarize: "What you've said are just some aspects of the eagle. The biggest characteristic of an eagle is that if it doesn't attack, then so be it, but once it attacks, it must be fatal!"

  Slowly scanning the nineteen faces full of enthusiasm and expectation, Qin Wushuang raised his arm and said: "You nineteen people are the vanguard of our Qin Family Village, you are the eagles of our Qin Family Village! The Flying Feather and Xiong Pao teams are our regular troops, while the Hunting Eagle is the elite team of our Qin Family Village, the trump card team! The Flying Feather and Xiong Pao will continue to expand with the prosperity of our Qin Family Village; but the Hunting Eagle, although the team will also grow stronger, the admission requirements will be twice as high as the other two teams!"

  Qin Wushuang's approach to building a team combines 21st-century Earth's military ideology, emphasizing diversification and three-dimensionality.

  Xiong Pi team, equivalent to ground troops, assault troops; Fei Yu team is similar to air force, using terrain height and width to kill opponents; while Lie Ying, is a special forces team, must have various skills such as ambush, sniping, assassination, defense.

  The training content of the first two is relatively simpler.

  The Falcon Team's training, Qin Wushuang personally took charge of it, examined the 19 people's innate abilities, talents and physical qualities, combined with many factors, and finalized these 19 places.

  These nineteen people will also be the trump card of the Qin family manor's guard team.

  It wasn't until now that these nineteen team members realized they were the last batch to appear, not because they were lagging behind, but because they had been left till the end as the finale!

  Qin Wushuang waved his hand, signaling everyone to calm down, with an encouraging tone: "Of course, this is just the result of my assessment after the first phase of training. No one needs to get cocky, no one needs to be discouraged. If you, Fei Feiyu and Xiong Pi's team members, think you can join the Hunting Hawk Team, that's great, show me your performance! If you're really suitable, we'll select talent without restrictions! Of course, the Hunting Hawk Team members shouldn't be complacent either. If they slack off in future training, they'll also be kicked out of the team. My requirement for you is to maximize your potential in your respective positions, that's the greatest success!"

  As soon as this was said, the people of Fei Yu and Xiong Pi's teams felt a lot more at ease. Yes, everyone is a guard of Qin Family Village, working hard for the powerful Qin family, if they perform outstandingly in their own positions, won't the higher-ups notice?

  "Remember, gold will shine eventually!" Qin Wusuo continued to stir them up. "All your efforts and progress, we'll see it all! Now, whether you're a mule or a horse, let's bring it out for a spin! Members of the Flying Feather Team, step forward three paces!"

  Fei Yu team forty people, immediately take three steps forward!

  Qin Wushuang clapped his hands, and immediately a large number of footsteps came from outside.

  A group of Qin family's servants carried over a dozen large trunks, quickly arriving in front of them, putting down the trunks and then retreating with respect.

  "Qin Yong, Qin Fei, fall in!"

  Two slender young men walked out of the Flying Feather Squad.

  "Open the box."

  The two of them busily opened all the boxes. Inside the boxes, dozens of strong bows were neatly arranged.

  "Qin Yong, try out the strength of this bow."

  Qin Yong got the order, picked up a bow, and with a forceful arm, pulled it three times in a row. The strength was full, the trajectory was beautiful, and the craftsmanship was extremely fine. At first glance, he couldn't help but love it.

  "These eighty bows were ordered from Akagi no ō, the great bow maker, through various connections several months ago. The materials used are top-grade fire rhinoceros horn and purple bamboo. Forty of them have a draw weight of 240 jin, while the other forty have a draw weight of 360 jin!"

  "Two hundred and forty kilograms?" Qin Yong looked at him in some disbelief.

  "Don't doubt it, what you're holding in your hands right now is a 240-jin bow! These 40 bows are just the weapons that will be provided to you for the next year; after one year, we'll switch to using 360-jin bows entirely! Do you have confidence?"

  Yes!

  A month of training and their strength has increased by a full 100%, which naturally makes these iron-blooded men confident!

  "The equipment of the Xiong Peng team will also arrive in the next two days!"

  "Hawk Squad, fall in, follow me to climb Mount Taihang. The other two squads will continue with their afternoon training. Starting tomorrow, we'll increase our skills training!"

  Under Qin Wushuang's efforts, a rough outline of an iron army has begun to take shape!
