Chapter VIII Military Training
Gao Yang spent an afternoon formulating relevant training matters and military laws, mainly based on the current military system of the Eastern Wei Dynasty to innovate, after all, with his current strength, he will never be able to completely put it aside, so he can only modify and innovate on the basis of the above to form a more flexible system.
Because the current Chinese army and Zhenjun soldiers in the Eastern Wei Dynasty are almost all Xianbei people, and all cavalry, while the state soldiers are a mixture of Hu and Han, there are Xianbei people, Han people, and soldiers of other ethnic groups, cavalry, infantry. So on the whole, Gao Yang's army was about 2,000 cavalrymen, mainly Xianbei people, and 1,000 infantrymen, mainly Han Chinese.
The revised training items also refer to the training procedures of the Mongolian cavalry and the great People's Liberation Army of later generations, including morning exercises, long-distance running, standing, military posture and formation training, followed by physical training and combat skills training, and there is also battle column combat training in the unit of buildings.
As for military law, Gao Yang believes that the current seven prohibitions and 54 beheadings are a relatively advanced set of military laws in the era of cold weapons, and that the later military law reforms are all based on this system, and the essence of the ideology is the same ancestry and the same origin, with the emphasis on the enforcement and authority of military law.
At present, the binding force of military law in the Eastern Wei Dynasty is not strong, there are many people who know the law and break the law, and the tolerance of the people in power to the Xungui group has led to the fact that although this group of people are brave in battle, they are inferior to the Western Wei Dynasty in terms of military law and discipline, which also makes Gao Yang feel that it is necessary to strengthen the importance of the military law system, and only a well-disciplined army can achieve a truly strong army.
The content of the ancient Seven Prohibitions and Fifty-four Military Laws is:
Seven prohibitions: light army, slow army, pirate army, bully army, back army, chaotic army, and wrong army;
Fifty-four Beheadings:
One: Smell the drum and don't advance, smell the gold more than enough, the flag can't be raised, the flag can't be subdued, this is called rebelling against the army, and the offender will be beheaded.

Fourteen: Out of the army, before and after, noisy words, do not obey the forbidden training, this is called a chaotic army, and the offender will be beheaded.
Fifteen: To avoid conquest, pinch wounds and fake death, so as to escape, this is called a fraudulent army, and the offender is beheaded.

.......
In the afternoon, Gao Yang and Murong Shisu summoned all the major building owners, team leaders, chiefs and army commanders to the camp, and then told them about the training matters formulated, and especially emphasized the importance of the seven prohibitions and fifty-four military laws, and those who violated the law must be dealt with by military law and will not be tolerated.
The generals looked up at Gao Yang's stern gaze, and couldn't help but shrink their necks, if they hadn't been too concerned before, but since Gao Yang's thousands of troops were injured and rode first, and killed Cui Yuan without saying a word, the image of a "madman" has been deeply rooted in their hearts, if someone says to them now that Gao Yang is a fool, it is estimated that they will scold each other with white eyes: "You are a fool, you are still blind, your whole family is a fool and a blind person." ”
Gao Yang first grasped the middle- and lower-level generals and cadres in the corps to train and transform them as pioneers, and then carried out the rectification and training of the whole army. It was November, the cold wind in the north blew people's faces painfully, and the snow covered the entire barracks, and it was white, and the whole leg fell to the knees as soon as he stepped on it, making every step difficult.
The team leader on duty saw that his master had already come to the school field before dawn, and couldn't help but walk over in surprise, saluted a military salute and said, "General, why did you get up so early?" It's not time for morning exercise yet. ”
Gao Yang looked at the team leader, who was about to be in his early thirties, with a dark face and a knife wound, it seemed that he had experienced a life-and-death battle, and couldn't help but ask with a good feeling: "Are you a man of the Han family?" What's the name?"
The team leader was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and replied puzzledly: "General Yu, the last general is Han, and he is the fifth oldest in the family, so the villagers call me Liu Wu." ”
Gao Yang nodded, in ancient times, the literacy rate of ordinary people was very low, relatively feudal, and they believed that the cheap name was blessed with a great life, so it was normal for some people to be called "Zhang San", "Li Si" or "Ergouzi".
"How many years have you been in the army? Looking at your face injury, you must have experienced a lot of life-and-death battles, right? ”
"General Yu, the last general's hometown is in Xindu, since the age of sixteen, he has followed the prime minister, is the first to follow the lord to raise troops in Xindu, it has been fifteen years, followed the prime minister to participate in large and small battles, suppressed the rebellion of the Erzhu clan, conquered the Guanxi, conquered the Shayuan, and fought in the mountains, and won a big victory, the last general's face wound was left at that time, when the last general personally cut down ten Western Wei puppet army."
Gao Yang knew that the victory in Bishan was the most beautiful war fought by the Eastern Wei Dynasty against the Western Wei Dynasty, and he almost destroyed Yuwentai at that time, almost knocking out the entire family of the Western Wei Dynasty, and couldn't help but admire: "Good man, he has been in the army for so long, but he has won glory for the men of the Han family." ”
Liu Wu couldn't help but be a little gloomy when he heard this, and sighed and said: "It's a pity, if it weren't for the Han identity of the last general, with the merits of these years, he would definitely not be the owner of the team." ”
Gao Yang especially understood Liu Wu's mood, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, and said softly: "Don't worry, follow me Gao Yang in the future, whether it is a Han or a Xianbei person, as long as you have strength, you will get a lot of status as much credit as you get." ”
Liu Wu nodded with conviction, knelt down and said, "The last general believes that there will be a day when everyone, whether it is a Han or a Hu person, will be able to live equally and become one." ”
Gao Yang smiled, and then ordered: "Liu Wu, General Ben now orders you to beat the big drum and order all the soldiers to get up and practice early." ”
Liu Wu saluted forcefully and forcefully: "Well, the last general will obey the order." Then he strode up to the snare drum and beat it hard.
With the sound of drums, not only did the soldiers in the camp wake up, but even the friendly troops close to Gao Yang's army were also knocked out and scolded and scolded, but Gao Yang did not understand the feelings of other friendly troops, he was the general of these three thousand people, and he considered the interests of these three thousand people first.
In less than a quarter of an hour, 3,000 men were soon lined up in front of their respective generals, the cavalry in a battle formation, the infantry in a battle formation, and thanks to the army's requirement that they were not allowed to take off their armor and sleep, the soldiers would set off so quickly.
Gao Yang stood in front of the formation and said loudly: "From today on, we must get up earlier than other legions, sweat more than others, and surpass them, do you have confidence?" ”
"Yes!" A neat shout resounded through the barracks on the school ground~
