Since the beginning of the dynasties, the criteria for selecting troops have not been the same.

If it was in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the selected warriors must be fully armored and able to operate a crossbow of twelve stones, carry fifty arrows and one arrow, wear an iron helmet, wear a short sword at the waist, carry three days of food, and be able to travel a hundred miles in half a day.

Obviously, this is a very demanding requirement for a person, but the physical fitness of the people of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period is high, and the wars are frequent, so it is reasonable to think about it.

In the Qin and Han dynasties, this standard was changed on a small scale.

The transition from copper to iron weapons was the most important link in the transition, which made the weapons lighter and the burden on the soldiers less. In addition, the infantry soldiers in the army have gradually become the main target, and those who can open them with strong crossbows and be good at using various weapons can be pawns.

But in this day and age, all of this has become a luxury.

The yellow turban is raging, Dong Zhuo is in chaos, the princes from all walks of life rise together, the names of the people are boring, the ten rooms are empty, and there are very few people who can have combat effectiveness.

So where would you expect people to carry heavy armor and travel hundreds of miles in half a day? The number of weapons literate is also decreasing, and the weight of crossbowmen is taken off the shelves, and the most relied on front-row charging soldiers such as spears and axes are still relied upon.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the princes selected elite soldiers, mainly residual veterans, and sometimes there were some grass cowards who surrendered. In a word, in this era, what is more important is the battlefield experience.

These are all things that Gao Yun slowly figured out after coming to this era, and when he heard Guo Jia say that Zhou Taiguanhai was already in the camp in the selection of troops, Gao Yun couldn't help but come to the barracks with Guo Jia.

The size of the trap camp will not expand, and eight hundred to one thousand is just right. The trapping camp has always been the most fearless of death, and it is basically impossible to elect from the people of Lujiang, and the main source of troops is still the 3,000 soldiers brought back by Gao Yun in the battle of Jiaolong Valley and the 1,000 bandits in the Zhoutai Jiang Qin Water Village.

The weather is still so cold, there is no sign of rekindling the vitality of everything in Xiao Suo, although the more than 1,000 soldiers on the school field are wrapped in cotton clothes, but the cold wind still makes them swing.

"I've seen the general."

After seeing Gao Yun, Guan Hai and the three took the lead, and more than 1,000 people on the school field hugged their fists.

"Go ahead."

The snow seemed to be even heavier, but more than 1,000 people let the snowflakes fall on their shoulders and heads, and some even turned into water trails across their cheeks, and they still stood motionless in the school yard.

Dian Wei looked at Gao Yun, and Gao Yun also responded with his eyes. In fact, these are all Gao Yun's meanings, and practicing standing posture has also been discussed with Dian Wei, since Dian Wei is an expert in command, he also thinks that this matter is feasible.

"To be a strong soldier, you must first be tenacious, if you can't even stand well, how can this group of people fight?"

Zhou Taiguan Hai also agreed, in the final analysis, the two of them were the main officers of the trapping camp, and Dian Wei was only sent by Gao Yun to assist in training.

Gao Yun's gaze swept over a person in the school field, this person he knew, it was Zhou Han, as a remnant of the previous generation, this person had been following Gao Yun for a long time.

You must know that under Gao Shun's hands, it is impossible to practice the standing posture, and there is no contact with the time of the standing posture, even this old man who has been born and died, after standing for a long time at this time, his expression is also a little uneasy.

"Tell me to go down and ask Zixiu to go to Mr. Ji to get some ginger ginseng and prepare a few pots of ginger soup." By the way, let Mr. Ji send a few apprentices over to prepare medicinal materials, and once someone faints, prepare medicine. ”

Gao Yun said to the guards beside him, looking up at the sky, it was already a little dark.

But the torment continues...

"Thorn!"

Guan Hai's loud voice went down, and he saw that the thousands of people on the school field had already picked up their spears and aimed at the straw men in front of him, which was a stab.

The wind and snow seemed to obscure Guan Hai's vision, but his voice still didn't stop.

"Stab again!"

The spear just now seemed to have made the soldiers feel a little tired, but as soon as Guan Hai's order came, they immediately beat them again. Forcibly raise the spear and move forward, in unison.

This is the ninth day of training since the reorganization of the trapped camp, and the standing training has long been over, and now they have to practice only spears.

Gao Yun had to come to the camp to inspect for nine consecutive days, after all, trapping the camp was the most important knot in his heart, and he also asked Zhou Tai why the three of them had to train such an action so frequently, but they got the same answer: "Zisi, don't underestimate this action, if you are skilled and do it well, you can decide life and death on the battlefield." ”

Gao Yun has trained in military training, but Gao Yun really doesn't understand military training. But from Zhou Tai's words, Gao Yun has already understood some reasons, these soldiers are practicing spears now, and they will have to practice knives and swords in the future. And this simple action is practiced for several days, and the average number of spears is more than 10,000 times a day...

It's just boring... You must know that these thousand people are not new soldiers, they are all veterans who escaped from the battlefield, let them keep repeating an action, you can imagine the resentment accumulated in their hearts, but in the face of Zhou Tai, Guan Hai, Dian Wei, these three mountains, it is difficult to have a temper for a while.

The biggest vent is probably in eating, as the saying goes, it is not false to say that grief and indignation are for appetite, from Zhou Han to take the lead, these people have to eat more than a dozen steamed buns and two bowls of broth at every meal. But Gao Yun is not afraid of these consumptions, in his opinion, if he wants to train strong soldiers, the consumption of funds is nothing, not to mention that it is not easy to spare such free time to train in this troubled world.

Time is passing day by day.

Seeing that the first month is about to pass, the wind and snow are naturally much less. The sun is bright at the beginning after the snow, but the weather is also the coldest when the snow melts.

The barracks have been closed for more than half a month, and those who can enter, except for Gao Yun and others, are the people in Yang Liu's kitchen and the apprentices of Jiping Medical Hall.

Gao Yun often asked the carriage to carry these in and out, after all, the weather was too cold, and he didn't want some special talents to miss a little bit.

Gao Yun stood on the stage, still watching these soldiers continue to practice a single movement, the spear has been replaced, and now the training subject has become a broken weapon broadsword.

Guan Hai Zhoutai's rough voice was still echoing, and the grass clippings on the school field were chopped everywhere, to Gao Yun's surprise, Hao Zhao also volunteered to join the training team a few days ago, after all, he was a martial artist, and Hao Zhao also wanted to take the opportunity to improve his will.

With a bang, a big man had already fallen to the ground, and from a distance, you could see that his face was pale, and his exposed hands had been frozen.

"Go, pick up, take to the medical camp."

Several people quickly came out of the ranks, and when Gao Yun heard this familiar voice, he looked back and found that Ji Ping had come to the barracks in person.

There were a few loud bangs, and more and more people fell, their bodies may not be able to withstand such high-intensity training, but Gao Yun knew that after a simple medical treatment, they still needed to return to the school field to continue training, and for them, the road of transformation had just begun...
