Chapter Seventy-One: Training (II)

The Changxiu Army's large-scale military training is still in full swing.

Almost early in the morning, more than 2,000 people could be seen, desperately running towards the embankment. Wait until two hours have passed, and then come back.

After more than ten days, the people along the way are no longer surprised. It's only some newcomers who are a little curious.

At first, the sergeants of the Changxiu Army didn't want to be ridiculed, so they ran desperately.

Later, everyone was thick-skinned and didn't care about people's fingers.

However, every time I return to the school grounds, the fragrant meat is really terrible.

Compared to running fifty miles a day, watching others eat meat is obviously more torturous.

Therefore, later, everyone's dream is to eat a delicious meal of meat after exhaustion.

I have to say that this dream is very simple, but it is very real and easier to achieve.

The purpose of Xia Huan's training for long-distance running every day is to enhance their physique on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is to sharpen their will.

You must know that the fighting on the battlefield sometimes lasts for several hours.

In addition to having good physical strength, the spirit is more important.

Of course, just like the skin can be thickened, Xia Huan never planned to rely on his favor to them, and he had the luxury of expecting everyone to achieve their own targets.

Only those small favors that can be seen, continued, and even available to others, but not by themselves, can stimulate their self-motivation.

At the same time, such a small favor will not affect the unity between the teams.

In addition to the long-distance run every morning, Xia Huan naturally asked Chen Zhaoming to redivide the troops of Changxiujun.

In the past, everyone was the same. The little soldier holds a long ge, and the centurion has a long sword or something.

Such a military brigade is convenient for unified drills and is suitable for large-scale training. After being put into the battlefield, it can also show extraordinary combat power.

Perhaps, the former Chang Xiujun was a good hand in this area, but now it must not work.

The Changxiu Army, which only has 2,000 people, will obviously not be able to make any waves if it is thrown into a general battle of tens of thousands of people.

Moreover, as Xia Huan's personal soldier, Chang Xiujun's task is not to meet the enemy head-on, but to protect Xia Huan.

Regarding this, Xia Huan saw it very clearly.

In other words, Changxiujun can be deficient in attack, but the defense must be extremely good.

Of course, if he can, the current Xia Huan also wants to train Changxiu Army into a strong force that can attack and defend.

It's just that from the beginning, Xia Huan only had less than two months. If you want to be both offensive and defensive, it is obviously impossible.

Not only from the perspective of time, Ji Shu, as a general and the commander-in-chief of the whole army, will not be able to let Xia Huan take the initiative.

Xia Huan's merits are small, if Xia Huan is captured or killed in battle, then Ji Shu's military and political career will come to an end, and even, whether he can save his life is two words.

On the whole, Xia Huan still focuses on defense. As for the credit, to be honest, this expedition is nothing more than gilding for him.

However, it is not easy to strengthen the defense of the entire Changxiu Army in a short period of time.

As early as the beginning of the training, Xia Huan asked Chen Zhaoming to make a detailed investigation of each person's situation.

These days, 2,000 Changxiu soldiers complete long-distance runs in the morning, and in the afternoon, they need to do various tests.

For example, those with the strongest arms and the strongest physique were assigned as shield bearers, who were responsible for lifting the shield and resisting the onslaught of the enemy or even the horses in the event of an enemy.

In addition to those with strong physiques, Xia Huan also asked Chen Zhaoming to find some people who were good at hand-to-hand combat.

In the words of this era, it is a person who has the potential to become a skilled fighter.

These people must have a flexible body, and they must dare to fight.

Not only that, but once they have a close encounter with the enemy, they also need to immediately rush out of the military formation and fight close to each other to ensure that the enemy will not surround them all at once and block their rear road.

Such a person can also be called a person in battle.

Whether it is a shield man or a trapper, it can be said to be a high-risk class. Therefore, Xia Huan also treated them very favorably.

These were three hundred shield-bearers and two hundred siegers.

In addition to the fact that these people can participate in the meat distribution after the daily long run, each person still gets a separate piece of meat.

After all, whether it is a shield hand or a trapper, high-intensity training is a must.

Therefore, the protein intake must be much higher than that of others.

In order for a horse to run fast, it is necessary not only to whip it, but also to feed it with enough forage. Xia Huan still understands this truth.

In addition, Xia Huan also selected some who could use bows and arrows to form an archer with only 100 people, and selected 200 with good arm strength to serve as spear throwers.

For a team of 2,000 people, such a configuration should be enough to ensure the formation of an effective long-range strike within 50 paces.

Of course, neither the archers nor the spear-throwers aim to kill, but to delay the enemy's onslaught on the shieldman.

Especially for spear throwers, although the range is not far, but within fifty paces, if they are well trained, they are enough to burst out with good attack effects, and they are more convenient and practical to train than archers.

As for the rest, it's easier to deal with.

There were only more than 1,000 people in total, and all of them were assigned to be Ge hands.

For Ge Shou, there are not so many requirements. The biggest and only requirement is to have excellent teamwork skills.

Or to put it another way, to obey the orders of unity.

Changge is very long, generally more than three meters.

Although such a long distance can kill and damage the enemy at the maximum distance and prevent the enemy from getting closer, it also has extremely serious drawbacks.

Thousands of Changge people are crowded together, and if they are not careful, the formation will be disrupted. At that time, there is a loophole in the attack, and it is very easy for the opponent's trap to rush in front of you.

The ruler is short and the inch is long, and the three-meter long Ge is rushed to the front by the trapped soldiers, and it is basically certain to die.

Therefore, although Changge's training is the most simple and boring, it can also be said to be the most difficult.

Because, in the face of enemy attacks, the shieldman is protected by an iron shield made of fine iron, while the trapper can dodge with dexterity.

However, Goshou can't. Even if the other party's Changge has already stabbed you in the chest, you must not take a single step.

If you take a step back and disrupt the attack of the opponent behind you, then you will not only die, but also pull down a large number of people.

However, people have the instinct to survive, and when they encounter danger, there is no reason not to hide.

Therefore, Xia Huan divided the remaining more than 1,000 people into ten teams according to personal relationships, family relationships, and home addresses and other factors.

It can be said that almost all of the more than 100 people in each team have a little relationship.

Since ancient times, China has had a strong mountainism. Encountering old knowledge in a foreign country is the best illustration of being able to be a great blessing in life.

And in this way, almost everyone in each team has a relationship, and if they kill others because of their own retreat, they will meet the spurning of everyone from the entire team.

Although this seems a bit cruel, it is the most effective and easiest way to condense combat effectiveness.
