Hundreds of households came to the hall of the thousand households, standing on both sides and waiting for Jia Ke's arrival. The entire hall was silent, and they were all shocked by the soldiers outside the hall.

After a while, Jia Ke came to the hall and sat on the main seat, and all the hundreds of households came forward to pay respects, Jia Ke asked them to be exempted, and the hundreds of households stood on both sides again, waiting for Jia Ke's lecture. There can be no mistakes in such a process, and this is the embodiment of rank in the army.

Jia Ke sat on the top and said to the hundreds of household officials: "You have seen the people, and your goal in the future is to achieve their appearance. ”

Jia Ke paused for a moment to let them digest and digest, and then said, "From now on, you are no longer a hundred households, but an ordinary soldier. In a few moments, each of you will take two of you back, and then divide each of your hundred households into two parts, and train them personally by my own soldiers. You must also participate in the training, and if you pass the training, you are still a hundred households, and if you fail to pass the training, I will not withdraw you. But you can't continue to serve as a hundred households, you can only train with the team, when did you get it? When will we continue to be a hundred households. ”

After Jia Ke finished speaking, he looked at them again, and then asked, "Do you have anything else to ask?" If not, start receiving people now. When you go back, you start training right away, and I'm going to see your results in a month. This month is just training you in basic obedience and discipline. And after this month, I will teach you the real formation. If there's nothing to ask, then start now, and you don't need me to name them, you go one by one. ”

As soon as Jia Ke finished saying this, a young man in his twenties walked out below. Jia Ke remembered that his name was Feng Mo, but he had never spoken to him, and he had never spoken to others. Jia Ke was very confused about this guy, how did he get into the position of Baihu?

I saw Feng Mo striding outside the hall and looking at the forty soldiers, who were exactly the same, standing there straight. There has been no wavering for such a long time, and he didn't know how to choose for a while, so he could only choose two nearby.

The three of them returned to the hall together, Feng Mo knelt down on one knee and said, "The humble position has been chosen." And then there was no more to say.

Jia Ke looked at him and thought that this guy was still very interesting. Then he said to him, "Now that you have chosen, then you can go back." ”

Feng Mo bowed and saluted, didn't say anything else, and left with people.

Next was Huang Baifeng, who also led two people away. One by one, all the hundred households led people away.

Watching them leave one by one, looking forward to how many surprises they can bring to themselves in a month?

In the following days, Jia Ke inspected the teaching field every day and guided the training of each hundred households. Because of the experience of training in Xiacaozhuang, the team's training progress is very fast. At the beginning, the formation of each hundred households was crooked, but as time went by, the team became more and more neat, the discipline became better and better, and the obedience became higher and higher.

In the barracks dormitory, the housekeeping of the team is not as messy as before. Now the quilt is tofu blocks, the basins are neatly arranged in the corner, and everyone's clothes are neatly stacked aside.

And a month later, the Kaiping guards walked, walked, sat and lay down almost the same as the pro-soldiers.

If you don't see it with your own eyes, no one will believe that these soldiers and a month ago were an army.

Among them, the most prominent is Feng Mo's 100 households, if they only look at the formation, queue, and life housekeeping. There is no difference at all from the pro-soldier team.

The second is Huang Baifeng's 100 households team, Huang Baifeng has worked hard, others are training, they are training, others are resting, and they are still training. With this spirit, the hundred households that were originally at the bottom of Kaipingwei were trained into elite troops whose spirit is not inferior to Feng Mo's hundred households.

As for the remaining 100 households, although they are not as good as the two of them, they have already achieved the expected goal.

Next, Jia Ke did not announce the candidates for the two deputy thousand households, but gathered all the hundred households.

Start teaching them, teach them the advantages and disadvantages of the Macedonian phalanx, and let them discuss with each other how to play to their strengths and avoid exposing their weaknesses. How to attack, how to defend, how to retreat when the time comes to meet the steppe Tatars.

After studying kung fu for about ten days, he sent these hundred households back again. All the infantry units went to practice the Macedonian phalanx. And the cavalry practiced how to cover the flanks and rear of the Macedonian phalanx.

In the end, Jia Ke divided the infantry of Kaipingwei into four small Macedonian phalanxes, each with 256 people. The infantry each holds a 6-7 meter long spear, and the infantry phalanx of 16 vertical and horizontal rows is united in holding guns against the enemy, and each platoon holds the gun at different angles.

The 256 soldiers formed a vertical and horizontal 16 platoon, which was characterized by easy training, and the new recruits who were added to it and several missing infantry phalanxes could quickly recover their combat effectiveness after merging. Several or even dozens of phalanxes form a large array of hundreds to thousands of people, and they can also operate effectively. Then there is the ease of turning, which allows you to quickly change formations when the enemy turns to flank attacks. In this way, no matter which direction the enemy attacks from, it is always as if facing the front of the Macedonian phalanx.

The cavalry was placed behind the Macedonian phalanx, defending the rear of the Macedonian phalanx and allowing you to fight from both flanks when the enemy retreated. Pursue the enemy. It can also be killed from the flank when the enemy is attacking the front and flank of the Macedonian phalanx at the same time, which not only protects the flank of the Macedonian phalanx, but also ensures that you can kill effectively.

The remaining three hundred and seventy-six men, of whom three hundred, became archers, mainly to inflict damage on the enemy with bows and arrows before the enemy attacked, and their formation was mainly based on three-stage shooting, with a hundred men in each row totaling three rows, one row after another, to ensure the density of the shots, to the duration. When the enemy arrives in front of you and is ready to enter hand-to-hand combat, retreat from both flanks to the rear of the square Macedonian square, and then continue to shoot forward, relieving pressure on the Macedonian phalanx while continuing to inflict damage on the enemy.

The remaining seventy-six people, divided into four teams, each team of nineteen people, were divided into four Macedonian phalanxes, as a reserve for the four Macedonian phalanxes, and once someone lost in the Macedonian square, the reserve personnel were immediately replaced. In order to ensure the integrity of the Macedonian phalanx, as well as the continuity of operations.

In this way, the sergeants of Kaipingwei were basically divided into three sides when the enemy was in the field, with three hundred crossbowmen in front, four Macedonian phalanxes in the middle, and nineteen reserves behind the Macedonian phalanx, which belonged to the unified command of the Macedonian square. On the back of the Macedonian phalanx were two cavalry units of three hundred men each.

As long as the training is completed, the troops under Kaiping Wei Jia Ke. It is completely possible to fight against the steppe cavalry several times its size.

The next step is formation training, which lasts about a month. And in the middle, Jia Ke also fulfilled his promise, and selected the best performers Feng Mo and Huang Baifeng from the twenty hundred households of Kaipingwei, as the deputy thousand households of Kaipingwei, and temporarily commanded two Macedonian phalanxes, of course, it is not called Macedonian phalanx now, this formation was shamelessly named by Jia Ke - now called Jia Ke phalanx.
