Zhao Yun, who has led the troops to fight all his life, understands one thing very well: when an order is given, he can act upon the order, and how terrible it is for the soldiers who insist on walking 80 miles for half a month without complaint.

What's even more terrifying is that these soldiers are not veterans who have survived the battlefield, but a group of new soldiers who have not been in battle for the most part.

And after they arrived at the place, the lord gave an order, and they could quickly form a team and list a neat formation.

This kind of soldier is not just a random adult man to enlist in the army.

When the Han Dynasty was strong, it was emphasized that "non-clergy are not allowed to conscript."

At that time, the Han Dynasty not only paid attention to training that was tailored to local conditions and different arms in peacetime, but also insisted on regular review and assessment of non-commissioned soldiers.

Only those who pass the training on weekdays can go to the battlefield.

If you fail to pass the assessment on weekdays, you will be punished.

Then after a few battles, as long as they can survive, they can directly become elite pawns, real elite pawns.

There are orders to follow, and thousands of difficulties and dangers are also forward.

There is a ban to stop, and the sword is not afraid.

The leader likes this kind of soldier the most, because they have terrible execution, amazing perseverance, and can make the general's intentions to the fullest.

Whether it is the champion of the former Han Dynasty, Hou, who led 800 horsemen into the desert, or the thirteen strong men of Geng Gong of the Later Han Dynasty who returned to Yumen, in addition to the fact that the coach won the hearts of the soldiers, there was also the fact that the soldiers were well-trained on weekdays.

The soldiers are all powerful, which is one of the important reasons why the big man can sweep the surrounding area.

However, since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, in order to expand their power, the princes of all walks of life have wantonly recruited the people into the army and driven them to fight.

After countless battles, one out of a hundred people can survive, and then it is considered a pawn, and the rest are either killed on the spot, or discarded and starved to death.

In other words, this is simply the most cruel method and the best pawns piled up with human lives.

And in Zhao Yun's view, this kind of elite pawn is just a killing tool in the hands of all walks of life, and it is not at the same level as the kind of elite pawn used by the Han to swallow the world, expel Hu Yi, and protect the peace of the people.

However, at this time, an outlier appeared in Dahan.

This outlier recruited a thousand soldiers in Nanxiang.

Among these thousands of people, there are Hu people, wingmen, and Han people.

With an order, this soldier had to travel 80 miles a day for half a month.

However, these thousands of soldiers not only have no complaints, but are proud of forging ahead bravely, and ashamed of falling behind.

Although I don't know if it is like a fire, it is as fast as the wind, its Xu is like a forest, and it is not moving like a mountain.

I didn't expect this outlier to be disgusted?

How unreasonable!

Old Man Zhao immediately almost blurted out: You don't want to give it to me! I want it!

Old Man Zhao was thinking of this, but he didn't know that the Marquis surnamed Feng, who was talking in front of him, actually pointed to him and said, "Do you know who this is?" It is the father of the Han Dynasty, the general of Zhendong, General Zhao! ”

There was a slight commotion among the soldiers below.

I only heard Feng Tu Turtle say bitterly, "The way you look now, not only are you disgraced in front of me, but also in front of General Zhendong!" What a disappointment for me! ”

Zhao Yun: ......

Squinted at Feng Yong, and a word popped up inexplicably in his heart: clever words!

"In these days in Jincheng, you also have to strengthen training, understand?"

"Understood!"

The soldiers responded with high expressions.

"Alright, disband."

The orders were passed down layer by layer, and the soldiers, under the leadership of each team, gradually left the field.

Even if you leave, it is as smooth as when you enter the venue, and it is a pleasure to watch.

Zhao Yun sighed, stood behind Feng Yong and asked faintly, "What do you want about the four hundred people?" ”

"What four hundred?"

Feng Yong was a little confused, so he turned around.

"I heard very clearly just now, there are 671 people who can reach Jincheng on time, and there are about 400 people left on the road, what are you going to do with them?"

"Naturally, let them return to Nanxiang."

"Don't take them to Viet Cong?"

"What are you doing with such unqualified soldiers?"

"The old man will discuss with you."

Zhao Yun waved his hand and drove everyone away, came to Feng Yong, and said a word.

"What?"

Seeing Zhao Yun's mysterious appearance, Feng Yong asked a little inexplicably.

"Those four hundred, since you don't want it, how about giving it to the old man?"

"What does the old general want them to do? It's all some ...... that can't be put on the table."

"The old man likes to be on the table. For example, dog meat, the old man likes to eat it very much. ”

Zhao Yun looked at Feng Yong directly and said sincerely.

Feng Yonggan laughed, "Old General Zhao laughed. ”

Zhao Yun snorted, "That's also the first thing you joked about." ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the departing soldiers and said, "Do you know what the old man was most surprised by these soldiers just now?" ”

Feng Yong scratched his head, "Isn't it a queue?" ”

"The queue thing, as long as you train day after day, can always achieve it."

"That is, they can get eighty miles a day?"

"You also know that traveling 80 miles a day is a great thing?" Zhao Yun glared at Feng Yong angrily, "Then you scolded them just now?" ”

"I don't think that if you don't beat or scold, you won't be successful."

Feng Yong smiled.

Zhao Yun looked at Feng Yong, regardless of his troubles, and sighed again, "Traveling eighty miles a day, as long as you carefully select the elite soldiers, it is not impossible to do." The Wei soldiers trained by Wu Qi back then were much more powerful than your soldiers. ”

"Then what did General Zhao surprise them about?"

Feng Yong asked strangely.

"I don't know how many people you've transferred from Nanxiang. But I know that there are 671 people who have come to Jincheng today. ”

Zhao Yun looked at Feng Yong seriously and said, "This is the number that the soldiers below just now summed up after reporting the numbers one by one, not that you specially sent someone to count them." ”

"This shows that those soldiers, everyone knows how to do arithmetic? Right, right, or not? ”

"Well, that's right." Feng Yong nodded in acknowledgement, and explained by the way, "Nanxiang soldiers, every soldier, must at least learn the addition and subtraction within a hundred and the trick of ninety-nine, and also be able to recognize some commonly used words. ”

That is, the level of half a primary school student, with the current conditions of Nanxiang, as long as there is a heart to implement, it is not a difficult matter.

"As for the team leader and above, the requirements are even higher." Speaking of this, Feng Yong spread his hands, "So, now Nanxiang can draw out more than a thousand soldiers at most." ”

"A thousand or so is already terrible."

Zhao Yun looked at the backs of those soldiers who left the scene, and said slowly, "The former Han took the descendants of the dead in the army, raised the Yulin officials, and taught the five soldiers, so that the Yulin Army was obtained." The number of Yulin soldiers is no more than 2,000. ”

As he spoke, he lowered his voice and said, "You soldiers, but follow the example of the orphans of Yulin? ”

Feng Yong shuddered, "Old General Zhao, this kind of thing can't be talked about!" ”

"What are you afraid of!" Zhao Yun glanced at Feng Yong with disdain, "I only said that these soldiers of yours are similar to the orphans of Yulin, and I didn't say anything else. ”

"Sergeant of the Yulin Army, everyone reads and writes, learns the law of the five soldiers, although the number is small, but the combat power is very strong. I don't dare to say that one is a hundred, but one is more than enough. ”

Zhao Yun's eyes flashed with an inexplicable light, and he looked at Feng Yong, "What are you asking everyone in Nanxiang to be literate and read?" ”

"Earlier, the old soldiers who retreated from the battlefield were wantonly recruited to go to Nanxiang, don't you tell me that they really went there to enjoy happiness?"

The more Zhao Yun said, the brighter his eyes became, and he couldn't help but point at Feng Yong, "Do you dare to say that this is not an imitation of the Yulin orphan?!" ”

Feng Yong: ......

"What exactly is the purpose of making such preparations three years ago?"

Zhao Yun seemed to have made up his mind, and without waiting for Feng Yong to argue, he began to stare at him with a serious expression and asked.

Feng Yong smiled bitterly, "General Zhao, if I said that I was just trying to educate Hu Yi as soon as possible, do you believe it or not?" ”

"Believe, of course. But is it just for that? ”

Zhao Yun nodded and asked.
