Liu Bei happened to go outside the city to watch the training of soldiers, so he first invited Cui Meng to the small school outside the city to watch the army drill.

Dangdang, this is the gong sounded, and at the same time, the 100 people who led the team shouted: "Walk in unison, walk - barefoot on the left, shoes on the right......" At this moment, there were 800 soldiers on the school field who were practicing. Walking in unison, then standing, turning, this is the most basic queue training, and there are a hundred cavalry training on the other side. At a glance, I knew that it was Liu Bei's handwriting.

Liu Bei walked into the school field from one side, the soldiers around him were training seriously, no one was watching, Liu Bei directly gave an order, ordered the people and horses to gather, about ten minutes later, the hundred people and horses were arranged into nine squares, although it was not possible to hit the horizontal and vertical and oblique looks are a straight line, but there are also some looks. In fact, in ancient times, it was not without strict queues and strict military discipline, for example, Qi Shaobao's Qi family army was transferred to the north at the beginning, and 3,000 Qi family army soldiers marched all the way to Beijing, waiting in the suburbs, at that time, it rained heavily, from morning to noon, and the weather was cold. And the officers and men stood motionless in the rain, and their military appearance became more serious. The original general of the Jingshi was very surprised, and immediately suppressed a vote of civil and military officials who were watching! What Liu Bei took out was a modern military training method, how not to make Cui Meng shocked. When Liu Bei introduced Cui Meng to Guan Yu again, Cui Meng was taken aback when he saw Guan Yu, and said to himself: What is the origin of this Liu Bei, how can there be such two generals under a county order, is it really a man of destiny, and he can't help but be eager in his heart, if Liu Bei can really succeed, his own clan may not be able to be the descendants of the Gaotang Cui clan or even the Qinghe Cui clan in the future. Seeing that those soldiers were very strict in training, and the formation was also very strict, they vaguely revealed the smell of elite soldiers, and their hearts were even more happy.

After the two saw that the ceremony was over, Cui Meng asked: "Dare to ask the county honor, why are these soldiers barefoot, if the lower official is presumptuous, don't blame the county honor." When Liu Bei heard this, he smiled and explained to Cui Meng.

It turned out that Liu Bei had come to the conclusion through a few days of communication with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei that in this era, or the era of cold weapons, the tighter the formation, the stronger the combat effectiveness. The faster the formation changes, the smaller the flaws. Think about it, the denser the formation, the more weapons the opponent will face per unit area. Therefore, Liu Bei did not hesitate to take out this set of training methods for changing the queue that had been copied from later generations. I also said in my heart, thank you for the military training of the university. Then Liu Bei took out the military rank system, you must know that this military rank system has been tempered by thousands of tempers, and it is still used in the era of human warfare and nuclear warfare, so Liu Bei can boast that the military rank system he took out can be used for at least 1,800 years. Liu Bei first appointed the hundred generals as captains, Dubo as lieutenants, and deputy Dubo as second lieutenants. Sergeant Shi Chang and Sergeant Captain all served as veterans, and the cavalry and Liu Bei rushed into battle together and were given the rank of sergeant. You must know that most of Liu Bei's soldiers and horses have only been recruited for less than half a month, and being able to get out of such a rigorous formation is indispensable to the credit of this military rank system, of course, it is more about the strict training.

The training method of queue change is ready-made, Liu Bei did not discuss it with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, but directly took out the military training method of his previous life, At the beginning, it was to learn to stand in line, turn left and right, walk in unison, run and walk, this is the content of military training recruits. At the beginning of this queue, it was miserable, many people in this era have a very poor sense of direction, and when they are alone, they are nothing, once there are many people, it is easy to have problems when they turn left and right. So Liu Bei remembered the method of the Shandong warlord Han Fuqu, and once, Han Fuyu saw the instructor practicing recruits. The recruits couldn't get to the point, and the instructor crooked his nose angrily and scolded the recruits for being as stupid as donkeys. Han Fuyu angrily scolded the instructor and said: You are as stupid as a pig! Who knows what one, two, one, Han Fuyu asked those recruits to wear straw shoes on one foot and leather shoes on the other. yelled at the instructor: You shout to me, leather shoes and straw shoes. Those recruits actually got to the point. Therefore, Liu Bei had these trained soldiers wear only one shoe on their right foot, and the other foot was bare. In this way, it is easy for the soldier to feel that he is wearing a shoe on one foot, and he does not have to think about which side is left and which side is right.

When Cui Meng heard this, he was greatly amazed, and thanked Liu Bei repeatedly, which made Liu Bei inexplicable.

In fact, although there were many military works in ancient times, they were generally the foundation of a family, kept secret, and only circulated within the family, and the so-called Jiangmen came from this. This kind of military theory and military experience is the most important personal property that a general leaves to his children and grandchildren, and it is easy to keep it out of the way. This is true not only of military writings, but also of various other aspects of scholarship, and the knowledge of the family has been passed down in this way. Therefore, in this era, the first thing to do when employing people is to look at the door. At this time, it is certainly a social atmosphere to look at people and family history first, but it is not without reason that when it comes to being able to look at the family first. This kind of really useful knowledge, except for the father and son in the family, how can outsiders not learn, so the ancient dynasty will choose talents in the family of the door valve, in the final analysis, the so-called family gate valve is through the monopoly of knowledge to further monopolize the power.

This is the peculiarity of China, and the rest of the world at the same time mainly monopolized power and wealth through bloodline and so on, not to mention whether it is good or bad, at least knowledge can always spread, but bloodline is not good, for example, you can't make the Shudra of the Asan family become Brahmin, Kshatriya. That's why the imperial examination system finally appeared in China, and if you let Ah San's Shudra try to become an official through the imperial examination, you just told him that he could finally become an official in the imperial examination, and he didn't dare to be an official himself, not even thinking about it.

In this era, a general from a humble family rarely had access to formal knowledge of the art of war, and there was no way to help officers grow up in the army. The more correct ingredients a person realizes, the more chances he has to survive, and military is an industry with a certain chance of geniuses, some geniuses will learn war in war, and in the end, if these geniuses are lucky enough and do not die in battle, they will become famous generals, Guan Yu is like this, and Zhang Fei is the same. However, at that time, their military experience will eventually be treasured and passed on to future generations.

Liu Bei, on the other hand, not only carried out military education among the officers, but also asked these officers to convey the knowledge they had learned, the training methods, and the reasons why they had to conduct various trainings to the commanders below, and encouraged them to further pass on this knowledge to the soldiers. Although Liu Bei had never been a soldier before crossing, he still had some military common sense, and he didn't dare to say anything else, it was still okay to talk about soldiers on paper, at least he was still clear about the rank system, for example, Napoleon said that the squad leader was the father of the army, and this captain was not the squad leader. For example, after the Battle of Sedan, European military observers said that the outcome of the Franco-Prussian War was determined by the sound of Prussian schoolchildren reading aloud.

It's just that Cui Meng didn't know it at the moment, thinking that Liu Bei had taught him his family heirloom, and Liu Bei didn't know the unspoken rules of treating knowledge in this era, and the two were a perfect match. At the moment, the guests and hosts were happy, Liu Bei invited Cui Meng to go to the county seat first to familiarize himself with things, the foundation was just built, and there were many affairs, of course, it was impossible to do it himself, and more importantly, he would let himself go, and he would not be able to. It's better to train on the school field honestly, as long as you seize the military power, the rest is easy to say, didn't a great man say that power comes out of the barrel of a gun? Liu Bei pretended to be a soldier on the school field, and from time to time he encouraged a soldier or two below, corrected the movements of several soldiers, and even called out the names of soldiers.

This first army of soldiers and horses must be trained personally, like the Manchu Qing Dynasty, it cost a lot of money, and in the end it was all big-headed soldiers and horses, this mistake must not be made by oneself.

For example, everyone knows that the Germans used to be strong, but in fact, the Germans attach great importance to logistics, and the second person in the military is not called the deputy chief of the general staff, but the first quartermaster. In the era of cold weapons, the greater the strength, the better the physical strength, the more heavy armor you can wear, so that the weapons you move, the stronger the combat effectiveness, this is a truth that has never been written in all the art of war, and fighting a war is actually a strength job.

Liu Bei has not made great efforts to train these soldiers these days, many of these soldiers are not from good families, and they have been practicing desperately at the beginning, just afraid that they will train the dead, although it is said that if the training is strict, death and injury are inevitable, but the number is too large, I am afraid that it will cause a mutiny. Besides, now the early stage is just training discipline and obedience, in fact, it is just as important. The soldiers I chose are all teenagers, and as long as the food keeps up with them in the future, they will definitely be able to replenish them.

Thinking of this, Liu Bei said to his own soldiers: "You go and tell Mr. Cui, we want to raise pigs, I know that pork is not delicious, and the piglets will be castrated immediately after birth, and the taste will not be so fishy, although it is too late to raise pigs now, but we should start to prepare." In addition, try to buy as many pigs and sheep as possible, and we are close to the Yellow River, and we can also fish in the river, and then ask how the boat I asked to find is going, and there must be meat supply to the barracks every day. Naturally, someone took the order.

This Cui Meng really has some ability, the affairs of a county, he is well organized, many things that Liu Bei ordered to be violated by the yang and yin below, as soon as Cui Meng came out, he immediately easily got it, and everyone bought his account, just like Tao Qian occupied Xuzhou and reused the Chen family, Liu Bei occupied Xuzhou and reused the Chen family, Lu Bu occupied Xuzhou or reused the Chen family, and finally Cao Cao occupied Xuzhou, and still had to reuse the Chen family, without the cooperation of the Chen family, no one could do well in Xuzhou, this is the power of the family gate.

With Cui Meng's cooperation, Liu Bei really successfully gathered a lot of fishermen, and sent the fish to Liu Bei's army every day to sell to Liu Bei, with enough fish and meat as a guarantee, the days of these soldiers were suddenly painful and happy, and the basic queue was also practiced, and they began to increase the amount of training, naturally there were those who couldn't stand it and wanted to escape, Liu Bei immediately turned his face and other aspects can pretend to love soldiers like children, but this is not good, all deserters are killed first and then take back the field. killed a few people in a row, and even killed a veteran who went out with Liu Bei that night, and all the heads were hung at the gate of the camp to order, and the military discipline in the army was naturally extremely strict immediately. In the words of the big head, the matter of military training seems complicated, but in fact it is simple, and the main thing is to train to absolutely obey orders. We hold officials and money in one hand and a knife in the other, and if we obey, we will have officials and money, and if we don't obey, we will eat knives. Although Liu Bei can't take out the official and money now, he can take out the land, which can make people eat knives. It sounds a bit like Stockholm syndrome, which in Western military parlance is when a soldier's fear of military discipline outweighs his fear of the enemy.

Liu Bei also set an example, soaked in the barracks every day, the food and lodging were the same as everyone else, and all kinds of official affairs in the county were also handed over to Cui Meng as much as possible, and they really needed to do it themselves, so they were all brought to the barracks. These nearly 1,000 people Liu Bei intends to train into a personal soldier like the white ear soldiers in history, and the basic troops that started in the Dong Zhuo Rebellion in the future are naturally strictly trained, and three months have passed in a flash, and on this day, someone came to report that someone came to visit.
