On the school field outside Anyi City, since Chen Mo came to Anyi, it has been the third batch of recruits, and the batch recruited by Xu Huang when he was the captain of Anyi has been taken to Chenggao by Xu Huang, and now it is a newly recruited soldier and horse, which was originally prepared for Chen Mo to train in person, but now that Tai Shi Ci is here, he will let Tai Shi Ci be in charge of training.

Not all generals can train elites like Gao Shun, but a qualified general must at least have the ability to make his soldiers and horses form combat strength in a short period of time, which in itself is a part of testing a general's ability.

After all, Tai Shi Ci is not like Xu Huang who has been tested by war, and he has no reputation, so now Chen Mo has no martial arts, and he is holding a wait-and-see attitude towards whether Tai Shi Ci can be qualified for the position of cavalry captain.

Anyi's county soldiers are full, one school has five departments, two thousand men and horses, even if the princes have begun to expand vigorously now, and the cavalry captain has begun to become less valuable, it is also extremely high trust and courtesy to be able to command two thousand soldiers and horses just after he came out.

Tai Shi Ci did not make an inch, he was arranged by Chen Mo to become a cavalry captain, he was grateful to Chen Mo in his heart, but he also held his breath, he almost didn't go home these days, he ate and lived with the soldiers every day and trained together, he wanted to train an elite, once there was a war, he wanted to make a name for himself in a battle, in order to repay Chen Mo's trust, and at the same time to prove himself to those colleagues.

On this day, Chen Mo had nothing to do, so he took Xu Shu and Dian Wei to the school field outside the city to see how Tai Shici was training, Xu Shu was talented and intelligent, and also had the ability to memorize, according to the evaluation of his father-in-law, although Xu Shu's knowledge is not comprehensive, but it is also better than eighty percent of the scholars in this world, while helping Chen Mo do things, while studying, it may be more helpful for Xu Shu, so now Xu Shu is more on Chen Mo's side most of the time.

Especially on the battle array, Cai Yong is actually a short board in this way, he has read it, but he has never really experienced the war in his life, and his understanding of the war book and battle strategy is more on the surface, but it is better to be taught by Chen Mo, although Xu Shu is two years older than Chen Mo, but in terms of leading soldiers to fight and understanding the battle array, Chen Mo is absolutely no problem to be a teacher for Xu Shu.

"Yuan Zhi, how are you looking at Ziyi's battle array?" The group did not approach the school field, but went up to the arrow tower on the edge of the school field, Chen Mo pointed to the battle formation that Tai Shici was practicing and asked with a smile.

"It's an ordinary change of the circle formation and the square formation and the sharp arrow formation, with these three formations, it is indeed enough to deal with most situations, and the more complicated ones, if they are not trained, they are not as useful as these three formations." Xu Shu held on to the railing, condescendingly observed Tai Shici's military formation, and replied with a smile: "But General Ziyi can make these recruits neatly lined up in just a few days, and he does have some ability." ”

"General Gao Shun told me before, what is the general of an army, you can find a shadow from his army." Chen Mo nodded, in fact, the reason why he dared to use Tai Shi Ci like this was more based on Tai Shi Ci's life number, the other party was by no means mediocre, but if you want to talk about Tai Shi Ci's understanding, the two have not seen each other for several years, they have intersected when they were young, and they have more understanding of this person, who is righteous and bold, but when it comes to doing things, Tai Shi Ci is actually more utilitarian and unscrupulous in order to achieve the goal.

"This ......" Xu Shu looked at the military formation on the school field, shook his head and said, "I can't see it below." ”

"Actually, I can't see it." Chen Mo nodded understandingly, Gao Shun naturally has his reason for saying that, after all, like qin, chess, calligraphy and painting will have a strong personal color in the depths of the essence, maybe if you regard military training as an art, Gao Shun has also reached that height, but Chen Mo doesn't, or most people in this world don't, so naturally they can't see the difference.

Xu Shu glanced at Chen Mo speechlessly, couldn't see the need to say, thought for a while, and said: "Lord, although I can't see the difference in the military formation, I think that General Taishi is a little anxious now. ”

"You see that, too?" Chen Mo smiled and nodded.

"In fact, I think that General Taishi's current reputation is the most suitable for him when the lord arranges him to be a military marquis, if General Taishi has the ability, the position of military marquis is enough for him to play, and it is not necessary to let him lead an army alone at the beginning, but it will put him under pressure." Xu Shu looked at Chen Mo and said.

"I don't think I agree with Yuan Zhi on this point." Chen Mo shook his head and said: "What Yuan Zhi said is not wrong, it applies to most people, even military marquis, you are looking at what I said, right?" ”

Xu Shu nodded silently, in fact, at the beginning, when he didn't show any ability, it was not too much to give a general.

"But the scorer." Chen Mo shook his head and said: "Some people, who may spend their entire lives, are just a captain, but some people are born to command soldiers and horses, and people are born different; Of course, you can also say that he may not have this potential, but I am optimistic about him, the cavalry lieutenant, for him, it is indeed a bit high now, but it is not a driving force, if he really has higher potential, now he feels unworthy of this position, with my understanding of him, will be more energetic, what he wants now is to prove that I am not wrong, if he has the potential to command ten thousand armies, this cavalry lieutenant, but can urge me to produce 10,000 people in the future. ”

"The lord has such confidence in this man?" Xu Shu looked at Chen Mo curiously, he knew that Chen Mo had always been very stable in employing people, that is, Wang Biao and Zheng Tu, who were extremely close to Chen Mo, Chen Mo had always been tentative, and not like Tai Shici who gave a high position in this way, you must know that Wang Biao had experienced the test of the Battle of Qixian, Yang Mao and Zheng Tu had also experienced several major battles, but until now, only Wang Biao was the only one who was a cavalry captain, although Zheng Tu and Yang Mao were the same, but the commander's men and horses were not the same.

Tai Shi Ci's life is much higher than that of the Captain of the Cavalry without any official position bonus, but this statement, I'm afraid no one can accept it, after thinking about it, Chen Mo smiled and said: "I have my way of looking at people, he is more than that!" ”

"We'll see." Xu Shu didn't refute either, in fact, Chen Mo really hasn't been in terms of employment so far.

"Let's go, he sees us." Chen Mo saw that Tai Shici had already let the deputy general train, so he walked towards this side, greeted everyone with a smile, and climbed down from the arrow tower.

"The last general will see the lord!" Tai Shici came to Chen Mo and saluted Chen Mo.

"No need to be polite." Chen Mo stretched out his hand to help Tai Shi Ci up, and took Tai Shi Ci to inspect the new army while saying with a smile: "But in a few days, this new army has been trained quite well, and it seems that Ziyi is not wasting his time in Liaodong." ”

"Don't dare, Liaodong is a bitter cold place, although there are few people there, but they often clash with Karasuma, and the people are fierce, compared to that side, these new troops are much more immature." Tai Shi Ci shook his head and said, he has established his prestige in the army.

"Troubles, there are also here." Chen Mo nodded and said: "The folk customs over there in the clouds are generally stronger than those here, Gao Shun selects and trains elite soldiers, and most of the soldiers are selected from the clouds." ”

Gao Shun has been preparing to establish an elite army during this time, and the old subordinates brought out from the West Garden were the commanders and generals in the army, but the recruits were all selected from Yunzhong and Yanmen, saying that they were going to train an invincible army, and the people were less than a thousand, Chen Mo and Gao Shun seriously discussed this issue, the training cost of this army was extremely high, not only the food supply should be the same as when Gao Shun trained Chen Mo's group of people, but the weapons and armor were also in accordance with the standards of the generals.

The money and food spent on such an army of 1,000 people can pull up an army of 10,000 people if it is tight, even Chen Mo was a little hesitant, and discussed it with Gao Shun for a long time before deciding on this matter, and he was also very curious about what kind of scene such an army would be if it appeared on the battlefield.

Gao Shun is now training troops in Xihe, and by the way, he also serves as the county lieutenant, not in Anyi, but in the past few days, Tai Shi Ci knows all about the names of the generals under Chen Mo's command, this Gao Shun was followed by Chen Mo when he was in Luoyang, Chen Mo is quite dependent, but what the specific ability, Tai Shi Ci does not know too much.

"Lord, this army can be formed in March, I don't know ......" Tai Shici looked at Chen Mo and asked with some eagerness, he was a little eager to war now.

"March words...... It should be about the same. Chen Mo pondered, with his current understanding of Guanzhong, Li Dao, Guo Yan and others continue to make such trouble, I am afraid that after three months, they should not be able to help but do it to themselves, although Ma Teng and Han Sui promised Chen Mo to join forces, but this side is the Son of Heaven, as long as Li Dao and Guo Yan make some concessions and rewards, it is really difficult to say which way Ma Teng and Han Sui will go at that time.

In March, almost that side will free up their hands, and a battle is inevitable at that time, Chen Mo looked at Tai Shici and said with a smile: "When the time comes, in addition to the county guards in Hedong to maintain law and order, other departments will cross the river with me, and when the time comes, you will have the opportunity to make a name for yourself." ”

According to the current level of training in various counties, Chen Mo should be able to mobilize 50,000 soldiers and horses by then, although it is not as good as the Xiliang army of more than 100,000, but the Xiliang army is not monolithic.

Besides, it is impossible for them to gather all the hundreds of thousands of Xiliang troops, but Chen Mo's 50,000 soldiers and horses can really be mobilized, plus Sergeant Guan must support him now, the odds of victory are not low, it is difficult to take Guanzhong without blood, and it is more time-consuming, if he can, Chen Mo is naturally willing to spend time to take Guanzhong, but according to the current governance method of the Xiliang Army, he is afraid that when the time comes to take Guanzhong, there will be no one in Guanzhong.

"The last general is willing to be a pioneer!" Tai Shici's spirit was shocked, and he hurriedly asked Zhandao.

"Let's train our soldiers first." Chen Mo shook his head and smiled, he hadn't decided who would be the pioneer yet, and this matter was not in a hurry now.

"Whoa!"
