Volume 3 The Conquest of the Yellow Turbans Chapter 116 Choosing Troops (I)

The book is picked up again.

The old general Huangfu saw Li Zhi thinking there, and he didn't bother.

Because he knew that Li Zhi was full of scheming and might be able to come up with some good way, he stared at Li Zhi who was thinking hard with expectant eyes.

After a while, the folding fan in Li Zhi's hand suddenly stopped, and he shouted loudly with excitement on his face: "There is!" I have an idea! ”

When the old general Huangfu saw Li Zhi shouting loudly, he knew that he had already thought of an idea, so he asked eagerly: "What good plan did the virtuous nephew think of?" Hurry up and talk to the old man! ”

Li Zhi opened the folding fan and said confidently: "When the little nephew rescued Wancheng, because of the lack of troops, he requisitioned more than 30,000 yellow scarves, and this time the old trick can be repeated.

Although the elite under Zhang Mancheng's command has been completely lost, among the hundreds of thousands of yellow scarves that we originally captured, there are many people who are intact.

As long as we select its elites, we will surely be able to get 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers.

At that time, with our subordinates as the generals, commanding the Yellow Turbans, and with a little practice, we will definitely be able to become an elite division! ”

"Good!"

After listening to Li Zhi's strategy, Cao Cao, the old general of Huangfu, applauded at the same time.

I saw the old general Huangfu say excitedly: "In this way, you can indeed get twenty or thirty thousand elite divisions!" Brother is saved! ”

At this moment, Li Zhi bowed to General Huangfu and said respectfully: "Brother Gongming has returned home, but there are no generals under the command of the little nephew. ”

The old general Huangfu was stunned when he heard this, and glanced at Li Zhi with a complicated face, and the light in his eyes flashed.

Then, the old general of Huangfu waved his hand, pretending not to care, and said, "What is this talking about, nephew!"

This expedition is to save my Han Zhongliang, but wherever there is a place where the old man is useful, even if he speaks, he doesn't have to be so polite! ”

"The old general is indeed a loyal man!" Li Zhi admired the loyalty of the old general Huangfu to the Han Dynasty very much.

Li Zhi looked at the old general Huangfu with a sincere face, and sighed in his heart: "Although this great man has reached the time of the storm, his loyal ministers and good generals are endless, but it is a pity that there is no wise lord to control them, otherwise this great man would not have fallen to this!" ”

After thinking about it, Li Zhi pointed his hand to the old general Huangfu and Cao Cao Guo Jiayi, and said to them: "Old general, two, I'll go and see those Yellow Turban captives, please..."

"Hmm." The old general Huangfu did not shirk, nodded and walked out quickly, very eager.

Seeing that the old general Huangfu was so anxious, Cao Cao and Guo Jia glanced at each other, smiled bitterly, and hurriedly followed.

When the four of them came to the place where the city was built, they saw that the dense crowd was busy.

Except for a few soldiers guarding the Yellow Turbans, all the others were Yellow Turban captives.

As far as the eye can see, there are many strong men among the Yellow Turban captives.

Seeing these elite men, the old general Huangfu's eyes lit up, nodded, stroked his beard, and said with a smile: "These people are all strong men, as long as they practice a little, they are elite soldiers!" ”

Cao Cao stroked the short beard under his chin, nodded approvingly, and said: "That's true, these yellow scarves have already seen blood on the battlefield, as long as they practice a little, they can become an elite soldier!" ”

Hearing the conversation between the two of them, Li Zhi frowned and looked at the yellow scarf in the distance.

Of course, there are strong people in this yellow scarf, but there are also many thin and weak people, and if you want to become an army, you must choose carefully.

Thinking of this, Li Zhi said to the three old generals of Huangfu: "These yellow turbans are uneven, if you want them to become an army, you must choose."

Otherwise, no matter how large the number is, it will only be a rabble. ”

"Exactly." The old general Huangfu nodded and agreed with Li Zhi's statement.

In his opinion, an elite division should be well-trained, strict in military discipline, and obedient to the generals.

Like these yellow scarves, which are scattered and have no military discipline, they should indeed be sorted out and selected.

Immediately, the old general Huangfu was worried about the selection of soldiers.

If he is allowed to train the army, then no problem, training soldiers and leading soldiers to fight are his forte.

And now letting the old general Huangfu choose soldiers is really overstretched, so he asked Li Zhi on the side: "Does the virtuous nephew have a way to choose soldiers?" The old man is not good at this. ”

Li Zhiyan heard this, and after thinking for a while, he nodded, of course he didn't know how to deal with people, but there were many training methods for recruits in later generations that could be used as a reference, and those unqualified yellow scarves were eliminated one by one.

After the old general Huangfu saw Li Zhi nodding, he was overjoyed, in his impression, Li Zhi has never been a big talker, everything can be said and done.

Therefore, since Li Zhi agreed this time, he must be very sure that he will be able to select elite teachers from these uneven yellow scarves.

Thinking of this, the old general Huangfu hurriedly urged Li Zhi: "Without further ado, the virtuous nephew should hurry up and select the soldiers, if it is too late, the old man is afraid that his godbrother will not be able to hold on." ”

"Uh..." Seeing that the old general Huangfu was so anxious to let himself choose his soldiers, he was stunned in his heart.

As a last resort, after Li Zhi smiled bitterly, he had to take the order and leave.

When he came to the place where the city was built, Li Zhi summoned Yang Ying and carefully admonished him: "Boxiong, you go and gather all the Yellow Turban captives who are not injured on their bodies and let them run around Wancheng."

Tell them that the first 20,000 men will be exempt from servitude, and that they will be able to serve as an army under the command of Ben Hou, and that they will be supported by Ben Hou. ”

This is Li Zhi's imitation of the field training method in the army in his previous life, this kind of running seems simple, but it is the most exercise of people's will and physique.

Those who can stand out under this kind of tempering will definitely become good soldiers.

Moreover, this method of elimination has the advantage of driving out all those who cheat and cheat in order to maintain the purity and self-motivation of the army.

After Yang Ying took the order, Guo Jia, who had been following him, asked curiously: "Brother's method of exercising Jia on weekdays can also be used to select soldiers?" ”

"Absolutely!" Li Zhi said categorically: "All changes are inseparable, the simpler the method, the more effective!" ”

"The virtuous nephew said it well!" At this time, the old general Huangfu, who was a little uneasy, also followed, and was greatly admired after hearing Li Zhi's remarks.

And Cao Cao, who came with the old general, also nodded in agreement and said, "Brother Xing's virtuous brother is even a famous saying!" ”

Seeing them praising themselves like this, Li Zhi was a little embarrassed, and was just about to say a few modest words when he heard a noisy sound in the distance.

"Hurry up! If you don't want to suffer from that labor, run for me!" ”

Yang Ying rode on the horse with a horsewhip, followed behind the eighty or ninety thousand yellow scarves, and scolded them loudly.

Those yellow scarves, when they heard Yang Ying's scolding, they were not angry.

Because Yang Ying had already told them that the people who ran in the first 20,000 could not only be exempted from the pain of labor, but also be able to join Li Zhi's command, and from then on, they would be the people of Erxianzhuang.

For joining Li Zhi's command, these yellow scarves are not much interested.

But to be able to join Erxianzhuang, this temptation is enough to make the yellow scarves fight with their lives.

If you can't live, who wants to be a traitor, who doesn't want to be an upright person?

In the past, they had no chance, so they could only look at the people of Erxian Village who showed off on weekdays with envy and jealousy.

At this time, they have a chance, as long as they can run to the top 20,000, they can join Erxianzhuang and live under the envy of others.

Join Erxianzhuang, you can eat and dress warmly, and your family can also live in this paradise on earth, these temptations are too big, big enough to make the yellow scarves run away without their lives.

After the yellow scarves had run around the city wall twice, some of them couldn't hold on anymore.

Those who were physically weak could no longer run and fell to the ground, but those who fell to the ground did not give up and wanted to struggle to get up and continue running.

However, his body did not allow him to run anymore, and after a few struggles, but did not get up, those people no longer wanted to stand up, and just lay on the ground, with tears in their eyes, and slowly squirmed forward.

Seeing this, Li Zhi sighed melancholy, and thought in his heart: "These yellow scarves are just forced to be helpless.

Whenever there is an opportunity to be an upright person, these people will fight with their lives, and even if they fall, they will still try their best to crawl towards the goal. ”

But... Immediately, Li Zhi shook his head and threw this thought out of his mind.

No matter how pitiful these yellow turbans were, each of them had blood on their hands, but in this Wan city, many people were slaughtered by them.

Evil is evil! No matter whether they were motivated by their intentions or commanded by others, no matter how pitiful they behaved and how many tears they shed, they could not wash away the blood debt on their hands......
