Time flew.
Three days later.
Jia Hu woke up early today. After he was done, he led Jia San and the others to the military camp.
At this moment, the military camp was bustling with activity.
The participating soldiers were all rubbing their fists, ready to shine in the arena.
The selection this time was done by drawing lots on the spot to ensure the fairness of the selection.
The names for the drawing of lots had already been prepared yesterday and were placed on the table in front of Jia Hu today.
Jia Hu only needed to draw two of the lots before the competition began.
After the 5,000 strong army had gathered, the participants of the selection first stood out and lined up in front of the arena they had chosen to participate in.
Then Jia San and the others briefly explained the rules of the competition in the arena.
"1. Falling out of the arena is deemed a failure.”
"Two, do not harm anyone. Those who intentionally hurt others will be expelled from the camp."
"Third, no poison is allowed on weapons. Anyone who discovers it will be expelled from the camp.”
The rules were very simple, and the soldiers could understand them.
After announcing the start of the competition, Jia Hu randomly took out two bamboo pieces from each of the five baskets in front of him.
After handing it to Jia San and the others, Jia San and the others took it and walked towards the five arenas.
"The first round of the group leader selection in the first arena, Zhao Daniu versus Wang Xiao Er.”
" The first round of the group leader selection in the second arena, battle!"
" The first round of the group leader selection in Ring 3, battle!"
" The first round of the group leader selection in the fourth arena, battle!"
" The first round of the group leader selection in Arena No. 5, battle!"
As the name of the soldier was called, he went on stage.
The qualifiers had officially begun.
The weapons wielded by the soldiers on the stage were mostly common weapons such as sabers and spears.
None of them used a sword. At the start, Jia Hu still had some expectations, but after watching for a while, he let go of the stubbornness in his heart.
In novels and movies, the arena was basically filled with experts who used swords. It did not exist in this world.
In the big man of the Dream of the Red Chamber, most of the people who carried swords were people of status and nobility. It was a symbol of status.
Marquis Ding Yuan, Zhao Gan, had one and wore it all year round. In the battle with the Tartars, Zhao Gan had also used a large saber.
Jia Hu even suspected that Zhao Gan's sword had never been unsheathed.
Thinking of this, Jia Hu realized that he did not have a sword.
It seemed that he had to do something when he went back. After all, he was also a person with status and could not fall behind.
Yes, write a letter to Emperor Wu Yun and tell him that he needed a sword.
If Emperor Wu Yun knew, he would say," Little brat, you don't lack it, but you're a little wicked.
The selection was in full swing. In a day, less than 300 soldiers were selected.
Jia Hu frowned. It was too slow. If this continued, the selection competition this time probably wouldn't be completed in a month's time.
Immediately after, Jia Hu ordered twenty arenas to be built overnight. Although they were somewhat crude, they were very stable.
This way, each team would have five arenas to start the selection at the same time, and the progress was much faster.
In just one day, the Regiment Commander Selection had ended.
Just as Jia Hu expected, the leader of the first regiment was a soldier who was originally guarding Yanmen Pass. His name was Wen Taihe. He was twenty-eight years old and lived in Yanmen Pass. His mother was still alive and he had a wife and children.
The commander of the second regiment was also a soldier who had been guarding Yanmen Pass. His name was Rong Wenshi. He was thirty years old and lived in Yanmen Pass. His parents were dead and he had a wife and children.
The leader of the Third Regiment was called Li Kainian, twenty-eight years old. He lived in Yanmen Pass. His parents were still alive, and he had a wife and children.
The leader of the Fourth Regiment was called Chen Defu. He was thirty-two years old and lived in Yanmen Pass. His parents were dead and he had no wife or children.
The leader of the fifth regiment was called Yang Xiu. He was twenty-four years old and lived in Yanmen Pass. His parents were dead and he had no wife or children.
These five regiment commanders were all natives of Yanmen Pass. The youngest was Yang Xiu, who was only twenty-four years old but had joined the army for eight years. His martial arts were very good.
Jia Hu paid special attention to him. This person could be absorbed into the Tiger Troop Battalion.
It was not that Jia Hu was picky, but that he knew that he was in the world of Dream of the Red Chamber.
Sooner or later, he would have to return to the capital city and the Jia residence.
And the Tiger Battalion he led was his foundation. They wanted to return to Jingdou with him, so he wanted to join the Tiger Battalion.
First, he had to be free from all ties.
This way, these people would be willing to follow Jia Hu.
Although Jia Hu could ignore their objections and insist on leading these Tiger Troop soldiers, whose parents, wives, and descendants were all at Yanmen Pass, away from their homes and to Jingdou.
But this way, even if these soldiers were willing to follow Jia Hu, they would inevitably have worries.
Thus, when Jia Hu was selecting the Tiger Troop soldiers, the conditions were quite harsh.
However, as long as they entered the Tiger Battalion, Jia Hu would also receive preferential treatment. Whether it was in terms of living or salary, the soldiers of the Tiger Battalion received the best.
