Chapter Ninety-One: Training (Part II)
Xu Shao looked at the group of recruits in front of him and felt very curious about what 'outreach' training was doing, this was a trick that Gongyu Wenwen of Xiyang County came up with, saying that it was necessary to exercise the recruits' 'team consciousness' and what 'river crab interpersonal relationship'.
Xu Shao, who is a river crab or not a river crab, has never seen such a training soldier since he was a child, and he is very skeptical about the training effect when he looks at all kinds of complicated training programs.
A few years ago, under the words of the chief manager Yu Wenliang, Xu Shao got rid of the bad luck of 'taking off \\\ naked and running around Anlu City three times', and used the method of 'running a lap around the school field to determine the winner'.
Of course, after accepting the other party's feelings, Xu Shao didn't want to take the opportunity to slip away, although the prince of Xiyang County was not in tune, but he was still a 'good person', Xu Shao and his father discussed and decided to find Yu Wenwen to see if there was anything that could help.
It happened that the other party recruited recruits to come to Yuezhou after the year, Xu Shao happened to be able to help, and then he was frightened by Yu Wenwen's harsh selection conditions: Isn't it necessary to be a soldier with so many conditions?
Yu Wenwen was also not polite, and directly asked him to participate in all kinds of preparatory matters, from leveling the site, planning the barracks, to what kind of training outline 'Xuanxuan', Xu Shao became more and more interested in what kind of soldiers this Xiyang County Duke could train.
For example, this 'outreach' training that we see now is an example.
First of all, what is the "trust back fall", the recruits carry out this training according to the unit, the content is to set up one person to make a wooden platform, one person stands on the stage and falls backwards, and the remaining nine people are divided into two rows under the stage, face to face, and hit their arms on each other's shoulders to form a one-person arm net to protect their fallen comrades.
A total of ten wooden platforms were set up, so that a total of ten and a hundred recruits could carry out this training at the same time, looking at the recruits standing on the high platform in fear, but they didn't dare to fall backwards or be pushed down by the team, Xu Shao felt a little disapproving.
"What's there to be afraid of?" Xu Langjun thought so.
So Yuwen Wen met his request and let him stand on the wooden platform, and then led Fifth Brother Chen, Yuwen Fifteen, Zhang Yu and others to arm below and prepare to continue.
Xu Shao stood on the wooden platform and turned around and began to mutter, he always felt that Yuwen Wen would be a whole person: What if they stop when I fall backwards?
That sharp-beaked monkey knows at a glance that he's not a good person, and that ribs are weak and can't help but be able to catch me?
was entangled and saw that he only heard Yu Wenwen shouting Xu Langjun was not afraid, he gritted his teeth when he heard this, closed his eyes and fell backwards, at that moment he only felt that his heart was being carried in the air without a bottom, and then his back was supported by reliable and powerful support.
He was caught.
After that, Xu Shao looked at Yuwen Fifteen with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks, and he was much more pleasing to the eye, and he really experienced what 'trust' was.
Next up is another training program: the cow dung formation.
A lot of fresh cow dung was scattered on the ground, and each recruit walked in groups of two, one blindfolded with a strip of cloth and the other led him by the hand, about thirty paces.
The one who leads the way can talk to the blindfolded person and tell him how to follow him and avoid the cow dung, and the two of them switch roles after walking to the opposite side, and the original blindfolded leader lets the blindfolded lead the way.
There is a long supervision throughout the whole process to avoid anyone from making it bad, and I don't know where Yu Wenwen went to get so much cow dung, and he has prepared ten sets of ten sets, which can also allow ten recruit teams to 'expand' at the same time.
There is no set of who wins or loses when passing the cow dung array, as long as they can go back and forth at a normal speed, the recruits are very happy to train, some are worried that they will step on the cow dung and are frightened, some see others stepping on the cow dung and laugh, and some are eager to try and wait for their turn to perform.
Watching the hot battle of stepping on cow dung, Yu Wenwen smiled, and led Xu Shao to the next location to see the new training project: the human chair.
A total of ten people formed a circle, and each recruit put his hands on the shoulders of the previous soldier, and listened to the order, and each recruit sat down slowly, just on the lap of the recruit behind him, so that the human chair was completed.
Two recruits compete at the same time, which team can't hold up first, and the team loses, and the loser has to do chores for the winning team on the same day.
"How did the county lord come up with this method?" Xu Shao admired Yu Wenwen a little, this training seemed to really promote the unity of the recruits and the friendship between each other.
Yu Wenwen said that he is not a genius in Tianzhong, and he can only train soldiers step by step, not only to practice skills, but also to increase team cohesion.
"The art of war is cloudy: people are single-minded, the brave cannot advance alone, and the cowardly cannot retreat alone, this is the law of the crowd." Yuwen Wen showed a passage in Sun Tzu's Art of War and military struggle.
He believed that the two armies relied on the strength of the group in order to win the confrontation, and in order to effectively give full play to the strength of the group, in addition to strict military discipline, the sense of teamwork among soldiers was also very important.
Soldiers should have a sense of teamwork, in the ancient army either rely on the same villagers or the same clan, everyone on weekdays, the neighbors and villagers or cousins, uncles, nephews and nephews naturally have a high degree of trust in each other, and they are willing to fight hard when the situation is critical.
However, this also has drawbacks, that is, it is easy to group and exclude outsiders, and even the superiors will be empty, Yu Wenwen does not want his army to become a small group in the future, and they are full of repulsion and rejection, so it is good to fight a good war, if the situation is not good, I am afraid that they will scramble to sell their teammates.
In the barracks, it is strictly forbidden to form gangs and factions, everything is subordinate to the orders of superiors, officers are not allowed to beat, scold and abuse soldiers for no reason, and daily food is not deducted.
It is delusional that the soldiers can be brought together by just one outward bound training, but Yu Wenwen will not let go of any possibility of gathering sand into a tower......
A month after the recruits started the training was about to pass, and the 1,000 soldiers arranged by the general manager Yu Wenliang next to the recruit camp had nothing to do for a month, and they stayed here to prevent the recruits from mutiniating with the training intensity of the three-day and one-day off, so that they could suppress/suppress nearby.
Yu Wenwen and his 'officer corps' were very satisfied with the performance of the recruits, so the next step was to start the selection and training.
There are two kinds of grassroots military systems in the Northern Dynasties: the new refers to the emerging government military system, and the old refers to the traditional military system.
The government military system is with the formation of the Eight Pillars system in the sixteenth year of the Great Unification of the Western Wei Dynasty (thirty-one years ago), the Prime Minister of the Eight Pillars of the State Yu Wentai is the actual boss of the Western Wei Dynasty, and the Guangling Wang Yuanxin as the Western Wei clan is to show everyone, so it is the Six Pillars that lead the troops outside.
There are two generals in the Zhu State, each of which is the governor of two generals (the government is the military government of the soldiers), and each of the governors of the province has two generals with Yitong, and each general leads 1,000 soldiers.
Therefore, the Six Pillars State (Zheng Jiu Ming) has jurisdiction over 12 generals (Zheng 9 Ming), 24 Kaifu generals (9 lives), and 48 Yitong generals (9 lives), each of which leads 1,000 troops, a total of nearly 50,000 troops in the 24 armies.
Thirty years later, there are more than 24 military offices, but the military positions above the same level need to be appointed by the imperial court, and the governors of the governors can only appoint the following military positions under the same level, and the regiments, brigades, and teams under the same are divided into governors at all levels: the metropolitan governor (eight lives), the commander of the capital (seven lives), and the governor (seven lives).
The government military system needs the approval of the imperial court to open the military government, and the above appointments also have to be issued by the imperial court, although Anzhou is self-contained, but Yuwenwen is a recruit, so there is no preparation of the government soldiers, but according to tradition.
The traditional army is based on the three levels of team, building and army, and the chief officers are respectively the team leader, the building master (three lives), and the army master (four lives), about 100 people are a team, three teams and one building are about 300 people, and three buildings and one army are about 1,000 people.
The military lord is above the unified army (six lives), leading the army of about 3,000 people, and the governor's office can appoint Yitong (nine lives) and the following military positions, so Yuwen Wen got a military position of the commander from his father Yuwen Liang, with a strength of 2,500,000 and nearly 3,000 people.
Ten people are one tithe, and the chief officer is the chief; Five tithes are a small team of fifty people, and the chief officer team is positive; The two squads are a team of 100 people, and the chief officer is the team leader; The three teams are a building with a total of 300 people, and the chief officer is the main building; The three buildings are an army with a total of 900 people, and the chief officer is the commander of the army.
This kind of 'nondescript' establishment was conceived by Yu Wenwen racking his brains, he originally wanted to divide the army into squads, platoons, companies, and battalions according to the modern and modern military system, but after thinking about it, forget it.
First, who knows what the squad, platoon, company, and battalion commander is, and the father is not good at giving the military position, but the first building owner and the military master are serious military positions and have official qualities, what kind of things can you eat as a battalion commander?
Therefore, the army recruited by Yuwen Wen is composed as follows:
The 1,200 soldiers of the phalanx are an army, and the army lord Chen Wudi has jurisdiction over four buildings, each of which is a phalanx, with 300 soldiers in each building and supporting flag bearers, flag guards, trumpeters, etc., and the owners of the buildings are Liang Dingxing, Chen Qijin, Xiong Dali, and Xie Liangdou.
There are 300 cavalry, set up a building divided into three teams, the owner of the building is Yuwen 15, there are 600 archers, and the archers are divided into two buildings and six teams, and the owners of the building are Tian Zhengyue and Hao Daring.
There are 100 long knife soldiers, and there is a team divided into two teams, and the team leader is Yang Ji; There are 300 auxiliary soldiers such as baggage soldiers, and nearly 400 idle people are outside, and one building is set up, and the owner of the building is Xu Shao.
Yu Wenwen's grass platform team has finally been set up, most of them are ordinary people, except for three people: 'abnormal humans' Yu Wenwen and Yang Ji, and 'historical celebrity' Xu Shao.
Chen Wudi, Liang Dingxing, Chen Qijin, Tian Zhengyue, and Hao Daring were the five stupid daring people who went to Beijiang Prefecture with Yuwenwen to the Huangzhou Governor's Mansion in May last year to "get the tiger without entering the tiger's den".
They are soldiers before, they have killed people in battle, they have seen blood, they are real veterans, and they are also Yuwen Wen's right-hand men when he trained the three hundred pro-army.
Yuwen Fifteen and Yuwen Wen Feiying lackeys have good riding skills since childhood, and they are much better than recruits, Xiong Dali and Xie Liangdou are the two best performers in the three hundred pro-army, also known as Xiong Da and Xie Laosan.
The recruits can be filled in according to this framework and the previously agreed plan after training for a month: first let Yang Ji, the leader of the long knife team, choose one hundred to practice two-handed swords, and then the cavalry master Yuwen fifteen will choose three hundred cavalry with the help of Yuwen Wen's father-in-law, Wei Chi Shun.
The experience of leading soldiers in Angu County Lieutenant Chi Shun is not less than that of his in-laws Weng Yuwenliang, when he was young, he followed his father Shu State Lieutenant Chi Shun to fight in the south and the north for decades, and trained countless soldiers, in line with the idea of giving full play to the residual heat, Yuwen Wen asked his father-in-law to check the selection of cavalry.
Since Wei Chishun came to Anlu in mid-August last year, he has served as the Sima of the Governor's Mansion under the arrangement of his in-laws, and now he has heard that his son-in-law has a request, so he naturally readily agrees to help select people, and even the 'training' in the back also agrees.
Next were six hundred archers, Tian Zhengyue and Hao Daring, together with more than a dozen experienced archers sent by the governor's office, to select and train archery.
Among the remaining 1,500 people, 300 people with slightly inferior performance but good strength were selected as auxiliary soldiers such as baggage soldiers and gang leaders, in addition to queues, identification flags, military horns, and spear assassination, maintaining general training intensity and training strength.
The last 1,200 people were personally supervised by Yu Wenwen, a phalanx soldier, and he, an angry man who was 'abandoned' by two ladies, would let these soldiers know what 'hell' was!
