Chapter 50: Phoenix Chick Wants to Run
The county soldiers are the main troops of the Han Empire, raised in the civilian counties, and the Han Empire needs to conquer and rebel before dispatching these county soldiers. When the county soldiers were nervous, the Han Empire would either transfer the strong or the criminals to act as soldiers according to the situation. Generally, when the county soldiers are the main body of the army, the professional sergeants of the Han Empire are the low-level officers, and if Ding Zhuang and criminals are transferred, the county soldiers are the low-level officers.
Liu Cong is not training the county soldiers now, but the elite soldiers, which is the foundation for his own conquest of the world in the future, low-level officers, so the theory class is indispensable!
The first lesson is to teach all the generals such as Wen Ping, Gan Ning, Wei Yan and the military leadership level above Quhou. Liu Cong first instilled in them modern military training methods, including the Roman phalanx that Liu Cong was familiar with, and the queue training that was harmonious with later generations. Then they were asked to carry it out, first with phalanx and platoon training. After assigning the task, each person was given a copy of the Art of War and the Thirty-six Strategies!
As for the combination of various arms, Liu Cong wants to put it to the end, which is also the most difficult and critical, and it may be that only Wen Ping, Zhuge Liang and others can quickly master Sun Tzu's Art of War is an early version, and the thirty-six strategies are completely Liu Cong's painstaking efforts, and after some summary, he copied it from his lover. and personally taught the generals above Gan Ning, Wei Yan and Quhou 36 strategies.
Seeing the thirty-six hours, even Zhuge Liang had to admire Liu Cong's talent, although Zhuge Liang was well-read, and many of his strategies had been seen in the book, but like Liu Cong, such an incisive and complete summary is really heavenly!
"The first plan is to hide the sky and cross the sea...... so Gan Ning, Wei Yan and others have an extra book in their hands after tea and dinner, which is ordered by Liu Cong, and it must be assessed regularly! If you fail the assessment, you will be dismissed on the spot! Gan Ning, Wei Yan and others didn't dare not read it even though they had big heads.
In Liu Cong's opinion, it is difficult to want Gan Ning and others to immediately familiarize themselves with Sun Tzu's Art of War and the Thirty-six Strategies and understand them, but everything is difficult at the beginning, so let's write it down first, and whether they can use it freely depends on their talent and creation!
In addition to theoretical knowledge, each general also has his own training tasks, and Liu Cong himself selected 200 people out of 4,500 people to form a separate camp! These two hundred people were selected from the four thousand five hundred people in hand-to-hand combat, and their physical fitness was already good, and only these people could withstand Liu Cong's training for them in the future!
So there was such a team of two hundred people in the school field of Gangneung City, and they were divided into four teams! Training in a dedicated school in Gangneung City.
Of course, since he was personally trained by Liu Cong, the intensity of the training can be imagined, as a soldier, Liu Cong naturally would not let these people train hungry. As a result, these people have special care in terms of diet.
Before the Han Empire, two meals a day were popular, and three meals a day gradually became popular in the Eastern Han Dynasty, but one of these "three meals" was at most a dim sum. In the Han Empire and even before, "rising at sunrise and sleeping at sunset" was a hard work for the people. Due to the short working hours of the people and the low consumption of nutrients, the two meals a day also roughly met the needs of the people at that time. In ancient times, the main reason for two meals a day was not a serious shortage of materials.
In the Qing Dynasty, a note recorded that Kangxi, known as the Holy Ancestor, heard that the world was snowing heavily and the price of rice was expensive, so he once suggested: "The Erhan people eat three meals a day and drink alcohol at night." I have two meals a day. When he was out of school, he ate one meal a day. Now the fourteenth elder brother is leading the troops outside, and the same is true. If the Erhan people can do this, they will not eat for a day, but they can eat twice, how else! ”
The 200 people brought by Liu Cong are the king of soldiers selected from among the elite soldiers, and he will also be of great use every day, so naturally he can't have two meals a day, and three meals are not enough! According to the actual situation, Liu Cong raised his diet to four meals a day, breakfast at the beginning of the morning (7 o'clock), lunch at noon and noon (12 o'clock), dinner at the end of the day (18 o'clock), and night dinner at the end of the morning (21 o'clock).
This also made other soldiers who were not selected very envious, but how did they know how painful it was to train with Liu Cong, not to mention the amount of exercise, it was very simple and boring!
Without any weapons in hand, the basic training every day is two hours of queue training. What follows is endless pull-ups and push-ups! These two hundred people are very proud to be able to receive the personal training of Taishou-sama!
But boring training quickly bores them! Because it's basically these basic movements every day!
On this day, Liu Cong dragged his tired body back home, but Huang Quan brought some not very good news. It turned out that after Liu Cong took Zhuge Liang and others to Jiangling to take office, Huang Quan sent people back to Xiangyang to pay attention to every move in Xiangyang City.
The result made Liu Cong very worried, first of all, Liu Qi deliberately went to the Qinglou to redeem Jiang Li and placed her in a house in the city, this Jiang Li was abandoned by Liu Cong because of her collision with Cai Lin, Liu Qi's move was definitely not just for Jiang Li's appearance. The simplest, Liu Qi must want to understand his familiar and unfamiliar brother from Jiang Li, and of course, it is not ruled out that both of them will have more drastic actions because they hate Liu Cong.
The second thing that worries Liu Cong is that Liu Qi frequently goes in and out of the minister's mansion in Xiangyang, and has obviously increased his efforts, especially the contact between Liu Qi and Kuai Yue has almost reached the level of seeing each other every day. And Kuai Jian, who was flirting with Wen Rui on the street, became Liu Qi's follower, or the dog-headed military advisor, and the two were inseparable. Kuai Jian and Jiang Li have one thing in common is that they hate Liu Cong, and it seems that Liu Qi also classifies himself into this category of people. Liu Cong will have to guard against it in the future, at least he can't trust it so much!
What made Liu Cong most depressed was that Liu Qi also went to Pang Tong's house a few times, and it seemed that he returned with a smile every time. This made Liu Cong a little unable to sit still, originally he had Zhuge to help deal with internal affairs, and the military side was temporarily handed over to Wen Ping, Wei Yan, Gan Ning and others, and it didn't matter if there was no Pang Tong. Later, wait for yourself to make achievements and then persuade Pang Tong.
Now Liu Qi is not willing to be lonely, if Pang Tong agrees to help Liu Qi, this can be greatly disadvantaged. After listening to Huang Quan's report, he found Zhuge Liang: "Mr. and Feng Xiao are close friends, Cong wants to ask Mr. to go back to Xiangyang to persuade Pang Shiyuan to ......"
"Lord, this matter is not unwilling, but can't!" Zhuge Liang heard Liu Cong say that he wanted to go to Xiangyang by himself, and Pang Tong shook his head again and again.
"Why is that?"
"The lord doesn't know that although Brother Shiyuan is good friends with Liang, he often talks about world affairs and exchanges opinions with Liang. But Pang Shiyuan's biggest shortcoming is that he is competitive. If I don't come to Jiangling with the lord, the lord will only invite Pang Shiyuan alone, or invite Pang Shiyuan first, and then follow him to Jiangling. Pang Shiyuan will definitely be able to agree to the lord.
Now that the lord has ordered Liang to be the commander of Nanjun, and Wen is the governor of Nanjun, there are no other vacancies in Nanjun, and if he is invited at this time, Brother Shiyuan must be unconvinced, and at this time, there are no strategists around the eldest prince to give advice to him, and there will be more opportunities for meritorious service. Therefore, if Liang goes, it will be in vain, and he will definitely be turned away, but on the contrary, it will make Shi Yuan make up his mind to agree to the eldest prince. ”
"This ......" Liu Cong thought about it, in history, Liu Bei invited Zhuge Liang out of the thatched house, but Pang Tong did not appear at the same time, but Dongtou Sun Quan, but he was depressed, Lu Su recommended him to Liu Bei again, Pang Tong followed Liu Bei out of helplessness, and then finally got the opportunity to go west, so he was eager to make meritorious service and Zhuge Liang to compete and die in Luofengpo.
If according to Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong's character is really hard to say, maybe he will agree to Liu Qi on impulse.
"The lord doesn't have to be too anxious, although Pang Shiyuan is no less talented than Liang, but the eldest prince is only in Xiangyang City, I am afraid it will be difficult to make a big difference."
"Alas......" Liu Cong didn't know what to do, and it didn't seem to work to let Zhuge Liang ask Pang Tong, but watching Pang Tong take refuge in his potential opponent Liu Qi was not good for him anyway.
If Liu Qi joins forces with Kuai Yue, Pang Tong and others, it is really a force to be reckoned with, especially when Pang Tong gives advice by Liu Qi's side, over time, the attitudes of other civil officials and generals will only change subtly.
But at the moment, there is really no good way to keep an eye on the movements of a few people except for Huang Quan.
