Chapter 1402: Active Training
"Commander, if you let us train, then we will never say anything, even if we are desperate, as long as you don't say stop, we will continue to practice. A bold sergeant couldn't hold back the resentment in his heart and refuted Ye Shikai.
"Yes, Commander, we don't want to train, we just don't want these people to train us. Another sergeant shouted at the wolf soldiers beside him.
"That's what we think too. ”
"Commander, please give us the order to capture these wolf people. ”
The sergeants expressed their dissatisfaction, and even many of them asked for orders to have all the wolf prisoners of war executed to commemorate the fallen brothers.
The army was silent. Ye Shikai was not in a hurry, and roared in a low voice, and everyone quieted down.
"First of all, I would like to ask you brothers, if the scale is the same, what are the chances of victory between the two armies of the Qin army and the wolf clan. ”
"This General Meng is a famous general, and with him in command, we have at least a sixty percent chance of winning. "This sergeant's analysis is quite objective, and the odds of victory are four or six of the enemy, that is, if there are no major problems, it is basically a sure win.
Then I go on to ask, if the two armies are fighting, if they both do their best, how many of our brethren will be wounded and killed after victory. As soon as Ye Shikai's question was raised, everyone looked at each other, they were just grassroots soldiers, and they didn't know about these casualties.
"Since no one knows, let me tell you that there were 400,000 brothers on this Great Wall line, and after the victory of the war, only 250,000 people survived, that is, 150,000 brothers who could never return home. ”
"Let me ask you again, if the wolf cavalry has no war horses and fights with us on foot, we have a chance of winning. Ye Shikai's words changed sharply, and he suddenly asked everyone a question.
"Commander, if the wolf clan does not have a war horse, we will definitely win, and we will win it all. "The Qin infantry is good at battle in formation, if the wolf clan has no war horses, it is to use their own shortcomings, and to attack their strengths, it will definitely be a fiasco.
"Then I'll ask you now, it doesn't matter how heavy this wolf clan's riding skills and riding and archery are. Ye Shikai said this, everyone was speechless, their answer just now is the best argument, the wolf clan's war horses, horsemanship, riding and archery, and riding formation, have a forty percent chance of winning for the entire wolf clan, and will let 150,000 Qin soldiers accompany the funeral.
"It is precisely because I, Daqin, do not have enough excellent iron cavalry to compete with the wolf cavalry, so I will use millions of people to build this Great Wall, otherwise, dozens of counties on the border will be plundered, and hundreds of thousands of people will become slaves of the wolf clan, and now you answer me, it is not important to learn the riding skills of the wolf clan. ”
"It's important. Speaking of which, everyone has been convinced, Ye Shikai's words are very "powerful", of course, persuasive language is based on correct concepts, learn from the strong, until you are stronger than him, even if it is a mortal enemy
"Since it's important, then do you still want to practice? Ye Shikai continued.
"Practice. The crowd replied hesitantly, as if they had not made up their minds.
"It seems that you are still very unconvinced, so let's do it, I order a military rule that all cavalry sergeants must follow. ”
Ye Shikai turned around and walked towards the soldiers of the wolf clan and glanced at them.
"Which of you is the best rider? Ye Shikai asked.
"If you are the best person in terms of riding, it must be Wan Qiyuan, who used to be the riding instructor of the wolf clan. ”
"Well, which one is Wan Qiyuan. Ye Shikai continued to ask, and a man with a small stature stepped forward.
"You are Wan Qiyuan. ”
"Exactly. ”
"How's your riding. Ye Shikai asked rhetorically, only to see this person slowly turn around and glance at the fortress, with a ruthless look in his eyes.
"Inside this fortress, no one is better at riding than me, including you, General. ”
"Good. Ye Shikai took Wan Qiyuan's wrist and walked in front of the sergeants.
"From this day forward, if any of you is better than Wan Qiyuan's riding skills, prove to me that he will be promoted to the rank of tun commander and receive military merit rewards, and he will not have to be trained, and if there is no one who can compare with Wan Qiyuan, he will continue to practice until he surpasses him. ”
"Wow. ”
"Wow. ”
"Old Ye, a few more wolf prisoners of war have come over, and they all want to be loyal to us. "Here in the prisoner of war camp, people have come out of it one after another, Ye Shikai also does not refuse, register his identity, you can directly go to lead the cavalry to training, Ye Shikai's plan is only a hundred, after all, the size of the cavalry team is only a thousand people, and he also knows very well that he can only use these people to teach horsemanship, but he must not form them into a "wolf mercenary", which is not realistic.
"I didn't expect you to be really successful. ”
"Of course, this is all herd mentality, with the first, there is the second, if it were not for the quota limit, within ten days, all prisoners of war would be obedient. Speaking of which, Meng Tian seems to be more likely to give Ye Shikai a position of "persuasion official", and may be able to play a greater role
"And I've heard that sergeant training is also very enthusiastic. ”
"Of course, under the heavy money, there must be brave men. Ye Shikai is very confident, many Qin soldiers have been in the army for more than ten years, and they have never been the commander of the tun, Ye Shikai's reward is very attractive, but he is not worried about the problem of the reward, he has also brought soldiers, and knows that people have a "limit" Yes, Wan Qiyuan's riding skills he has seen with his own eyes, it is indeed quite exquisite, no wonder he has the courage to say that no one can match, this is not arrogant and arrogant, if you want to be able to practice to his level, it not only takes time, but more importantly, talent, Ye Shikai is sure that among the thousand people, there are less than ten people who can meet the qualifications for the reward he said.
"I didn't expect you to really have a set, in this way, General Meng Da can explain, if you really train a good iron horse, Lao Ye, you are really a celebrity by his side. Shangguan Jian was very excited, who would have thought that the plan, which was not favored by the generals a few days ago, would now be so smooth, and the problem of prisoners of war was solved by the way.
"General Meng Da sent weapons, armor, wine, meat, and military salaries, which helped us a lot, and the only thing I was worried about was the matter of time. Ye Shikai's face showed a trace of solemnity, looking at the wolf clan camp outside the fortress.
"Helian is a fiasco this time, losing four thousand wolf clans, they can't swallow this breath, these days I have carefully observed, there are more and more camps outside, indicating that the wolf clan is increasing troops here, I suspect that they want to use the number of people to suppress, break through the fortress in one fell swoop, revenge for the fiasco, but also to open up this choke point. ”
