When the grass began to grow on the field, Yuan Xi had already embarked on the journey. At this time, the wild scenery is a little monotonous, the northern scenery is rough and straightforward, and the people who are bred are also informal.

There are two roads from Yecheng to Ji County, one is to go northeast along the boundary bridge, the other is to go north first, and then along Zhongshan and Zhuo County, basically along the junction of Bingzhou and Jizhou, but at this time there is no concept of territorial boundaries, and the area is divided according to each county. And the nearest county seat near them is also hundreds of miles away, surrounded by a wasteland.

During the Warring States period, this was the territory of the Zhao State. Walking on Zhao Guoxiu's military road, you can see mountain peaks in the distance in the west, endlessly, they are walking here, and the mountains seem to be walking.

Yijing in the south of Ji County was relatively prosperous, but after a long siege, Yijing suffered considerable losses and was no longer suitable as the capital of Youzhou. And Jixian is a gateway to the north, leading to the upper valley on the left and Yuyang on the right, guarding the key point of the North China Plain. So Yuan Xi decided to place his government in Ji County.

The carriages and horses marched, and many baggage loads were loaded into carts, which were dragged by the soldiers of the people's army in turn. After a period of cultivation, the atmosphere of the people's army also began to form. Both companies have their own songs, and the first company uses a song from the Book of Songs, with a melodious tune and rhyming lyrics. The second consecutive use is a folk song, which is also quite interesting. The two companies hung far behind Yuan Xi's convoy and spread out in two lines to the rear of the field.

Yuan Xi called Lu Fang and asked, "How has the team's training been recently?" Are the recruits all integrated? ”

Lu Fang was originally a scholar, but he was forced by life to enter the General's Mansion to do chores, bending over all day long, running in front of and behind, his ten fingers were ground rough and heavy, and his face was also a decadent color. After being used by Yuan Xi, his appearance was new, not only his waist was straight, but even his eyes were bright. His task is to build a good relationship with the soldiers, so he usually lives in the barracks, and by this time he has already mingled with everyone.

"Everyone is very motivated, but a little confused, if you want to go to Youzhou, is there no battle to fight? So what's the use of training on weekdays? ”

Yuan Xi smiled: "Is this their confusion, or your personal confusion?" ”

The two of them were walking next to the carriage, and when they heard that Lu Fang was very nervous, he hurriedly said: "It is not only the confusion of the villain, but also the confusion of the big guy." ”

"I told you, don't call yourself a villain, let's pay attention to the equality of officers and soldiers, there is no distinction between superior and inferior people in the army, and no matter where they come from, they are all the same. You, the instructor, have to lead by example, and you call yourself a villain, so what should the people below do? ”

"Yes, yes......" Lu Fang couldn't help but nod.

Yuan Xi said: "Born in this troubled world, how can you not fight?" Instead of worrying about this, why don't you think about what if you hang up on the battlefield? If you don't train well, you can only be cannon fodder. This time, I took the initiative to invite Ying to go to Youzhou, just to stay away from the battlefield and figure out the way to win. ”

Lu Fang said: "Huh!? It turned out that the second son took the initiative to go to Youzhou, I thought it was ......"

Yuan Xi said: "Why? Think I've been assigned there? Joke, if I don't want to go, who can force me to go? ”

"That's ......," Lu Fang nodded heavily.

Yuan Xi said: "So, if you convey it, the big war is coming soon, so you must always be prepared." If you don't train well, if you go to the battlefield in the future, you will be sent to die, and you will also be burdened by your comrades-in-arms. ”

Lu Fang nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, yes." At present, the morale is high, and everyone is practicing enthusiastically. The boxing and marksmanship choreographed by Zilong before have been promoted and implemented by all members. Some formation changes are also being trained. ”

Yuan Xi said: "It's not enough, you have to think about how three or five people form a formation, how to stick to resist the enemy, and how to pursue." In the unlikely event that you encounter a small group of enemies, it may be useful. There are also night raids, all kinds of terrain and all kinds of situations. The so-called military training is to rehearse all the situations that may be encountered on the battlefield, so that when the soldiers encounter situations in a hurry, they can have a clear understanding in their hearts and will not panic. Pay special attention to the four scenes, fire attack, water attack, food robbery and camp robbery, I think the probability of occurrence is relatively high. Of course, water is impermanent, soldiers are impermanent, and some things are always unexpected, so you need to think about it in your daily training, improve it, and simulate yourself in the enemy's position. You can make a Red Army Blue Army, and let the first company and the second company simulate a battle with each other. ”

Although he was prepared, Lu Fang was still dizzy to hear this chief who was often whimsical and had extremely divergent ideas, but fortunately, he had a good memory, so he remembered it firmly first, wrote it down later, and then found Lu Da and the others to ponder it slowly.

Yuan Xi's clerical staff is indeed a little insufficient, he now finally understands the pain of not having a right-hand man, there were few scholars in the Three Kingdoms period, and they were all concentrated in various wealthy families, such as the more famous Yingchuan Shi clan, which provided a great boost to Cao Cao, and Yuan Shao's various strategists represented a family. In various townships, basically only rich and powerful families can afford to run schools. Poor children, either go all the way to find famous Confucian scholars to learn art, or go to these big family schools to take classes, needless to say, the success rate is not to mention, just the vision and knowledge are a big difference.

Among the famous characters of the Three Kingdoms, they can still make achievements from poor backgrounds, basically focusing on military generals, many who have been soldiers and thieves, as long as they follow the right lord, they can still get out of the way. But among those who read, this proportion is even less. As long as the military general is on the battlefield, he can distinguish whether he is male or female. But those who can read still have to give a chance to see their ability. Yuan Xi has a headache, when will he be able to meet his own Guo Jia.

Yuan Xi looked at Lu Fang's dizzy appearance and said, "You give the order to go down and let the first and second companies carry out military training activities here." ”

Lu Fangdao: "Here? ”

Yuan Xi said: "Yes, there are no people here and there are no people, which is the most suitable for field training." Didn't you prepare multiple plans before? Take a set of training and marching plans and let the first and second companies practice and practice. ”

Lu Fang said: "But they still have to protect you...... What if some thieves come out of the mountains? ”

Yuan Xi said: "It's just such a place where birds don't, no one usually passes by, where will there be any bandits?" If you let Gao Shun's squad come over, it will be considered a guard. Even if there are any bandits, it is estimated that when they see our group, they will flee from the wind. ”

Lu Fang hurriedly said, "Yes." ”

After a few moments, the team behind began to prepare. The baggage was incorporated into Yuan Xi's convoy, and the fighters formed a team and began to train in the fields and swamps along the main road.

Yuan Xi squinted his eyes as the black dots disappeared on the horizon in the depths of his field of vision, and he could only hope that his people's army could quickly become stronger. The battle of Guandu is getting closer and closer, and in this troubled world, although he has no intention of hegemony, he has to strengthen his strength. This is not a Three Kingdoms game, if you lose, you will lose your life.
