Under the leadership of the young officer on duty, Zhang Jun went all the way. At the same time www.biquge.info a vivid picture of ancient military camp life slowly unfolded with his footsteps.

Although the Chinese army was stationed in the city, the ground in the barracks was not paved with bricks, but evenly compacted loess.

On the left, a group of soldiers are practicing encampment under the leadership of their respective team leaders.

In ancient times, the first thing to build a camp was to choose a location. Often, while the army was still on the march, the vanguard scouts had to report to the army commander in detail where they might camp ahead. Including where the terrain is flat, where there is water, and even the distribution of vegetation and the undulating terrain will be within the commander's plan.

Camping isn't as simple as it appears in the movies. Taking the Liangzhou armies as an example, a temporary wooden wall must first be built around the barracks. The production method is to cut two rows of tree trunks first, one row long and one row short, bury half of the trunk into the soil after scorching the bottom, arrange the long trunks into a tight row outside, and arrange the short trunks in a row inside, and then set up a wooden board between the two rows of trunks, divided into two layers, so that the part of the long trunk becomes a parapet, the upper layer of the wooden board can be used by soldiers to patrol and sentry, and the lower layer can store defensive weapons and let soldiers rest.

Turning to the right, there are several groups of non-commissioned soldiers practicing the military formation.

In ancient warfare, hand-to-hand combat was the main form. In order to require soldiers to accept unified command and coordinated operations on the battlefield, the formation is indispensable. The "Art of War" of the Warring States Period is a collection of the great achievements of the ancestors, and summarizes the military formations before the Spring and Autumn Period into ten formations.

These "ten arrays" are the square array, the circle array, the sparse array, the several arrays, the cone array, the goose-shaped array, the hook-shaped array, the Xuanxiang array, the water array, and the fire array. Among them, the water array and the fire array talk about the tactics of water warfare and fire warfare, not a simple battle formation, so Sun Bin actually only has eight formations in the ten formations.

In the period of the Sixteen Kingdoms of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the development of military formations is even more varied, with the wide application of cavalry and the improvement of military technology, various formations have also come into being, but the principle is actually inseparable from the core essentials of "establishing soldiers, setting ranks, and being vertical and horizontal". To put it simply, when the army is put into battle, it arranges the corresponding battle formation according to the specific conditions of the terrain and the strength of the enemy and the enemy, starting from the basic one soldier, one army, and one tithe, and continuing to the whole army.

Farther on was the camp of the soldiers.

One of the leaders of the Liang army led fifty soldiers, and the same was true when they set up camp, and everyone's tents faced each other, and drainage ditches were dug around the camp tents and between the camps. Not only were soldiers strictly forbidden to run between the camps, but tents were also not allowed to run around in the camps. There was no noise in the barracks, and the rest of the soldiers were also busy with their own business.

Interestingly, Zhang Jun found that each camp had a public toilet. He turned his head and asked, "I wonder if there is a rule for the distribution of latrines in the camp?" “

The officer on duty knew everything, and introduced: "Naturally, there are rules, and the latrine should be far away from the water source and the place where the grain is stored, and it should also be a certain distance from the barracks, but it should not be too far, so as not to be like the soldiers in the toilet can not return to the team in time, of course, it can't be too close, otherwise it will be too smelly." ”

The officer on duty smiled and continued: "Major General, the barracks are full of knowledge, but don't underestimate these latrines, even how many pits to dig are rules. More space, less is not enough. Of course, these are the responsibilities of the military commander, but I don't quite understand. ”

Zhang Jun nodded, and couldn't help but think of the public toilets in his previous life, the men's toilets were often empty, and the women's toilets were often queued up, and the distribution was unreasonable, which was indeed very painful.

At that moment, there was a burst of chanting from ahead. Zhang Jun looked puzzled, and the officer on duty hurriedly explained: "Major General, the front should be juju." ”

"Keju?" Zhang Jun's eyes lit up, this is ancient football.

Seeing the look of fascination in Zhang Jun's eyes, the officer on duty looked at the giant hourglass on the tower in the distance, and said, "Young General, this place is not far from the big tent, and there is still plenty of time, do you want to go and have a look?" ”

"Haha!" Zhang Jun smiled: "It's with my will!" ”

When it comes to playing football, it has been around for a long time in China. The earliest records come from the legend that it was the Yellow Emperor who made Chiyou's stomach plug grass into a ball for the soldiers to kick.

"Keju" is documented, and it began in the Warring States period in 500 BC. According to the record of "Warring States Policy", Su Qin, a longitudinal and horizontal family, went to Qi to lobby and once said: Linzi, the capital of Qi State, is very rich and real, and its people all play the flute and drums, play the piano and build it, and the chickens and lackeys are the ones who bow to the six games. ”。 At this time, Juju is to play football, which is already a favorite leisure and entertainment for the common people of Qi State.

In the Western Han Dynasty, Keju was valued by the rulers because of its great military training value, and was included in the military review project. And someone wrote a monograph - "Keju". According to the records of "Hanshu Art and Literature", there are 25 articles in the book "Keju", which shows that it is rich in content, and the methods and rules of Keju are quite complete.

Li You, a native of the Eastern Han Dynasty, left a "Ju Cheng Ming", with a total of 12 sentences in the full text: "The round bow square wall is like yin and yang." The law and the moon are right, and the two and six are equivalent. Build a long and flat, and its examples are common. No intimacy, no selfishness. Be calm and don't complain. Ju Zheng is still the same, and he is in power. The first six sentences are about the stadium building and the players on the field, as well as the referees and rules on the field, and the last six sentences are about the social significance of the Keju competition.

Zhang Jun came to the sidelines and saw twelve fighters fighting for a goal. Suddenly, the ball was kicked by someone and shot at Zhang Jun impartially.

"Haha!" Zhang Jun laughed, did not dodge, but jumped up to meet it, caught the ball with his chest steadily, and kicked back with a hard kick when the ball did not fall.

"Good!" The soldiers on the field applauded in unison, and even the officer on duty praised: "The young general has good football skills." ”

"Uh······" Zhang Jun didn't know what he thought, he suddenly blushed and said, "I have always been good at 'ball skills'. ”

"The army is usually boring, and Keju is the most popular among the soldiers."

Zhang Jun nodded and agreed: "Indeed, in addition to exercising the physical fitness of the soldiers and improving their coordination ability, Keju also helps to boost morale. I remember that Hou Huo, the champion of the Han Dynasty, was sick, and when he went to Saibei, he built a stadium in the Shuo desert and bowed with the soldiers. Sure enough, the morale was great, and he fought thousands of miles and sealed the wolf. ”

"The major general is really erudite!"

Zhang Junxin said: "This is my major." He smiled modestly.

"Knock······ Knock ······ Knock ······ Knock ······"

Just as the excitement was growing, the camp suddenly remembered the sound of drums. The officer's face changed, and he hurriedly looked at the hourglass, only to see that the small flag marking the scale had already pointed at the hour.

Suddenly shouted: "Young General, go quickly, the account has been raised." Those who fail to make the three-way drum will be dealt with by military law. ”

Zhang Jun was pulled by him, hurriedly followed behind, turned three times and two times, and came to a big tent.

I saw eight strong men beating the big drum in unison, and the momentum shook the sky!

In addition to the big tent, two columns of tiger armor soldiers with spears were lined up on both sides of the road, and some generals had already hurried to enter the tent.

Zhang Jun said goodbye to the officer on duty, also tidied up his clothes, and walked in.
