Chapter 20 Talents that Can Be Created
The wandering Yellow Turban thieves are even more harmful to the villagers.
When they are cornered, they will appear even more crazy and brutal.
Liu Xian let the Self-Defense Forces pursue them out of these considerations, even if they did not endanger their own villagers, but let them flee to other villages, it would also bring disaster to other villages.
But Liu Xian forgot to mention it to those self-defense forces for a while, which is equivalent to letting them pursue freely.
If the Self-Defense Forces are really free to pursue, then something may really happen.
The Yellow Turban thieves, plus Li Damu, are a total of seventeen people. Li Damu is dead, and there are still sixteen people left.
Twenty-three members of the Self-Defense Forces pursued the sixteen Yellow Turban thieves who fled in all directions. Among them, there will definitely be eight or nine team members who will have to face a Yellow Turban Thief alone.
So that's the problem.
Don't look at Liu Xian, who can kill Li Damu, the Yellow Turban Commander, alone, but those members of the Self-Defense Forces may not be able to kill a Yellow Turban thief on their own.
That's right, those Yellow Turban thieves were indeed frightened and desperately scattered and fled.
However, these self-defense forces are only peasants who have just picked up their weapons, and even after Liu Xian's three-day collective training, it is unlikely that they will grow up all at once.
And those Yellow Turban thieves who fled for their lives, don't look at them as the ones who escaped. However, this Yellow Turban Army has fought until now, and it can still survive the current Yellow Turban thief soldiers, which one is not elite? Not a clever man? Not to mention, they basically escaped from the encirclement and interception of officers and soldiers, if they didn't have some ability, could they still escape here?
If the members of the Self-Defense Forces pursue a Yellow Turban Bandit alone, once they catch up, the Yellow Turban Bandit will see that there is no escape, and if they find that there is only one person who has caught up, they will definitely attack in turn. In this way, those members of the Self-Defense Forces may not really be opponents.
In this way, the Self-Defense Forces were originally in a good situation, but there is a possibility that they will be reversed by the fleeing Yellow Turban bandits, and there will be casualties, and even this casualty will not be less.
But that didn't happen.
Because among the Self-Defense Forces, there is also Vice Captain Yu Jin.
Yu Jin, the captain of the sword team.
But after three days of training and Liu Xian's observation, it was found that this Yu Jin was really a talent that could be created.
Yu Jin himself is a person who does things silently, is down-to-earth and calm, he usually doesn't like to talk much, and he is silently watching and doing many things. The most rare thing is that a person who doesn't know a few big characters has a quality that ordinary people don't have. He is good at thinking, always able to think twice about doing things, and has a very high ability to comprehend.
Liu Xian trained the Self-Defense Forces, starting from the very beginning of the formation. Then he slowly added some items, and kept instilling some war and combat concepts in them.
But among the Self-Defense Forces, the one who can really listen, remember, and have a certain understanding is Yu Jin.
In fact, Liu Xian's training content for them is team loyalty, bravery, resourcefulness and survival.
To put it bluntly, it's actually about survival.
They are a team, to be loyal to Liu Xian, the battle needs to be brave and fearless of sacrifice. But Liu Xian didn't want them to sacrifice in vain, let alone see their senseless sacrifices. Therefore, in the case of sincere unity and bravery, we must also know how to use wisdom to fight. Save yourself as much as you can and defeat your enemies.
These, like Liang Hui, Liang Si, and Liang Wu, who have learned a lot of words from Liang Ji, have not been able to comprehend them.
But let Yu Jin figure it out.
I don't dare to say that he has fully understood, but he at least understands that in war and fighting, you have to use all your advantages to save yourself as much as possible to defeat the enemy.
On the battlefield, we must never take our hearts lightly, we must never underestimate the enemy's carelessness, and we must not make meaningless sacrifices in vain.
Liu Xian saw that Yu Jin could understand what he meant, so he looked at him differently. In particular, he was promoted to the vice captain of the Liulin Village Self-Defense Force.
Yu Jin was promoted to vice captain of the Self-Defense Forces, and the other members of the Self-Defense Forces also had no opinion. It turned out that Yu Jin already had a certain prestige among these young people of the same age.
In addition, Liu Xian himself cannot be with the Self-Defense Forces every day, and when he is not there, the Self-Defense Forces do need someone with a certain ability to lead the Self-Defense Forces on his behalf.
Therefore, Liu Xian appointed Yu Jin as the deputy captain of the Liulin Village Self-Defense Force, and when Liu Xian was not there, Yu Jin, the deputy captain, would handle some affairs of the Self-Defense Force. Such as training, guarding, patrolling, fighting, and so on.
The thieves scattered, and Liu Xian ordered the pursuit.
After Yu Jin led the Self-Defense Force to chase him out, he found that the thieves were very cunning, and he didn't know if they all had too much experience in escaping, as if they had formed their instincts, each thief ran away separately, and there were no two or three people who fled to one place.
Moreover, the routes they fled from were not far from each other. They can be completely separated, and they can escape for their lives, but they can also echo each other.
This is really the experience of these yellow turban thieves escaping. In this way, the officers and soldiers who are chasing them will be very helpless, especially when the strength is about the same, and they really don't know whether to divide their troops to pursue them or chase them all the way.
Now, there are sixteen thieves, and there are only twenty-three members of their self-defense forces, and if they go after and kill those thieves separately, then there will definitely be many villagers who have to face one thief alone.
Yu Jin quickly realized this situation, and he also knew very well that if he let his self-defense team members face a thief soldier alone, it would definitely be an act of seeking death.
He soon realized that it would definitely not work to pursue the Yellow Turban thieves separately. You have to have two or three SDF members together to be sure you're going to kill someone.
Because if they were really strong enough to deal with those Yellow Turban thieves alone, Liu Xian would not be so dignified and let them stand in line outside the village entrance.
There are only a dozen yellow turban thieves, do they need to be treated so carefully? But it turns out that there is a need for it.
He also saw the situation of Liu Xian killing the Yellow Turban Qu Shuai, he knew that in fact, Liu Xian was far from Li Damu's opponent, if it weren't for Liu Xian's martial arts of hand-to-hand combat, Liu Xian would definitely be the one who died now.
He immediately grouped the members of the Self-Defense Forces.
A spearman, a swordman, and an archer are divided into five groups, and then the five groups are divided into five points and scattered to pursue freely, and after killing the pursuing thief, immediately pursue the nearest thief.
Then, the rest were divided into groups of two and two, divided into four groups, and these four groups of people did not need to catch up with those thieves, they only needed to keep an eye on them, to make sure that those thieves would not escape, at least they had to know the escape routes of those thieves.
In this way, when the other team of three has killed the pursuing thieves, they will show them the way and let them chase them up.
In this way, those thieves were chased and killed one by one, even if they were trapped beasts, they could not escape their lives.
The pikemen are the main attackers, the sword soldiers are on guard, and they participate in the assists, while the archers can pose a threat to the thieves from afar, and can also put a certain amount of pressure on them when fighting.
Yu Jin's deployment can not only ensure the safety of the Self-Defense Forces, but also kill those thieves more effectively and faster.
Although this is only a small test, the scale is negligible and a small battle. But it can be seen from this that this Yu Jin is indeed a talent that can be created, and it is worth cultivating by Liu Xian.
