Chapter 50 "Demon King" Ye Xiao
In the next few days, Ye Xiao had been training them in the same way as training ordinary recruits, but the intensity of training had increased.
However, Ye Xiao found a few good seedlings among these fighters, which made him suddenly have the idea of training a team.
So after discussing with the big Liu and them, they began to implement it intensively, and Ye Xiao carefully selected ten people from hundreds of fighters to cultivate them as the seeds of the Sky Wolf Clan.
These ten people will play a very important role in the future, of course, this is a story for later.
The ten people selected were taken by Ye Xiao to the open space at the top of the mountain for special training, and Ye Xiao's method of training them was in accordance with the method of training special forces.
Ye Xiao asked the big Liu and them to hand over some of the skills they were good at, of course, they also had reservations, it took a lot of time to master these skills, so Ye Xiao's requirements were also reduced, and they only needed to master them basically.
What mixed martial arts, boxing against sandbags, push-ups, weight-bearing cross-country, rolling wood, tactical sign language, reconnaissance, field pulling...... These are the basic elements of their training.
Ye Xiao and the others felt nothing, but these trained people had suffered old sins, and they were killed and brought back to life by Ye Xiao every day, like a dead dog, and as soon as they returned to their place of residence, they lay on the bed and did not move.
In order to better train them, Ye Xiao specially asked people to build a few wooden houses on the side of the open space for them to rest at night, and there were special people to cook food for them, so it can be said that they live a life of immortal desire every day.
And most of the soldiers who were not selected didn't have the heart to care about what these people were chosen by Ye Xiao to do, because they themselves were half-dead by training every day.
After training for a while, Ye Xiao decided to take them out for field training again, and when it came to this field training, these selected fighters looked pained. Not only do they have to pass the designated route within the specified time, but they also have to carry a weight of dozens of kilograms, and they can't carry any food, and it is quite difficult to walk empty-handed in the ice and snow, let alone carry a weight of dozens of kilograms, which is really a pit when you step on it.
Wild training can also be said to be wilderness survival training, and Ye Xiao also arranged many obstacles on the way. Each training lasted for three days, during which they had to travel more than 100 kilometers, and the ten fighters could only rush desperately, because if they did not complete the task, there would be more perverted punishments waiting for them.
Every time he practiced, Ye Xiao would observe them in secret, and at the same time protect them in secret, after all, in this primitive environment, it was full of various unknown factors, and for the sake of insurance, Ye Xiao also brought two saber-toothed tiger rhubarb and erhuang.
Speaking of rhubarb and erhuang, when Ye Xiao and his party came to the Kunshan tribe with them, it caused a panic, and the people of the Kunshan tribe were afraid of the saber-toothed tiger, the king of beasts, and many of them died under the sharp teeth of the saber-toothed tiger.
The clansmen who saw the two saber-toothed tigers along the way were like facing a great enemy, and they didn't know if they thought that another beast was attacking the tribe.
But what they saw next directly subverted their cognition, because Ye Xiao instructed the two saber-toothed tigers to make various movements in order to eliminate their panic, which made the eyes of these primitive people fall off in surprise, and they called Ye Xiao a god.
They never thought that people could still drive two fierce saber-toothed tigers, and these two saber-toothed tigers seemed to be obedient to Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao instructed the two saber-toothed tigers, and Lan Xue, who came to meet them, also demonstrated it to the clansmen on a whim, and Lan Xue also explained to them that this was a skill unique to Ye Xiao to drive beasts, and this skill could also be taught, and she herself learned it from Ye Xiao.
This made the warriors of the Kunshan tribe a little eager to try, but seeing the big yellow and second yellow grinning at them, in the end, no one dared to come forward.
The two saber-toothed tigers are very humane, and Ye Xiao is not afraid that they will make any offensive things, so he let them move freely in the Kunshan tribe, and built a nest for the two of them.
No matter where Rhubarb and Erhuang go in the Kunshan tribe, the people of the Kunshan tribe who meet them are respectful, for fear of provoking them, they walk around the Kunshan tribe, as if they are inspecting the king of the territory.
……
To deal with the recruits, Ye Xiao has the means, but punishing them will not save any face, and it is useless for anyone to intercede, so he is also called the "Demon King" by them in private.
However, Ye Xiao didn't care about these at all, his idea was to train a group of warriors with strong combat effectiveness in the shortest possible time to improve the strength of the Kunshan tribe.
In addition to training warriors, Ye Xiao is also starting to make bows and crossbows, in addition to the hand-held ones, there are also larger strong crossbows, this kind of strong crossbows need three people to operate at the same time, two people on both sides through the wooden handwheel, pull the bow and arrows, and the other person is responsible for loading the arrows.
The arrows used in this kind of crossbow are more than a meter long, slightly smaller than a spear, and they are shot out through a powerful bow, and their lethality is enough to be called a strategic weapon level in this primitive society.
However, Ye Xiao was not satisfied with these, if he hadn't discovered metal ores, Ye Xiao could even build an army of steel.
No matter how shoddy the metal weapon is, its lethality is stronger than that of the wooden one, in addition, Ye Xiao also ordered the big Liu to be responsible for making trebuchets.
In ancient China, trebuchets were a weapon for siege, although there was no city to attack here for the time being, but the power of trebuchets was not too much.
Huge stones are wrapped in animal skins, smeared with animal fat, ignited with fire during battle, and smashed by trebuchets with the same power as bombs.
Speaking of bombs, Ye Xiao is also asking the ghost doctor to find a way to see if he can configure black powder to make bombs, if the stones are replaced with explosive packs, then the trebuchet is almost like a cannon.
Black powder is one of the four great inventions of ancient China.
Ye Xiao believed that if the enemy encountered this kind of weapon, after a few rounds of throwing, it would definitely knock the enemy to the ground, and the opponent would be defeated without even needing them to attack.
However, due to the lack of necessary tools, it is not possible to make crossbows on a large scale, but trebuchets are relatively simple, and the wooden frame of the trebuchet can be made of whole logs, and the heavy hammer can be replaced by sandbags or stones.
After a few days of struggle, the first simple trebuchet was seated, and Ye Xiao decided to experiment with its power.
In the square at the foot of the mountain, there is a just-made trebuchet, in order to facilitate the movement, Ye Xiao also made two wheels for it, the whole trebuchet is four or five meters high, and many people from the Kunshan tribe are watching from the side.
They were very curious about this strange weapon made by Ye Xiao, Ye Xiao asked a few people from the Kunshan tribe to pull down the main rod of the trebuchet, and then a large stone was put into a wooden frame.
"Put!"
At will, Ye Xiao gave an order, and the long main rod quickly rebounded back under the pull of the heavy hammer, and the stone was launched in an instant, flying in the air for a while, and with a bang, it fell one or two hundred meters away, and the snow was smashed out of a big pit by the stones.
Looking at this scene, the people of the Kunshan tribe opened their mouths wide, with their wisdom, it was difficult to understand why such a big stone would fly into the sky, but Ye Xiao didn't bother to explain it to them.
