Chapter 4 The Tiger

Morning of the erection day, Montenegro.

Chen Zhi led a thousand soldiers, each of whom was equipped with two light bows and two quivers, with nearly 100 arrows in the barrels, two short knives, two short spears, several halberds, a spear, etc., and a number of dry rations for the march for several days. Including Chen Zhi, each of the 1,000 soldiers had 20 kilograms of lead dust wrapped around their legs.

When Chen arrived at the foot of the Black Mountain, Liu Qi had been waiting there for a long time. The thousand soldiers originally had many complaints, but when they saw that Liu Qi was also equipped with the same equipment as them, and the things tied to their legs seemed to be more bloated and heavier, the complaints in their hearts suddenly disappeared without a trace.

"My lord, all the 1,000 soldiers are in the ranks!" Chen Zhi waved his hand behind him, and the 1,000 soldiers immediately stood in formation and waited for Liu Qi to fall.

Looking at these soldiers who still moved freely after such a heavy walk, Liu Qi couldn't help but praise: "It is worthy of being a good son of my Liu family!" ”

"You can come here to prove that you are the strongest of the eight thousand, and that you may become my confidants." Liu Qi did not hide it, "However, it is only possible. The next three months will be even more strenuous training and actual combat, and you may lose your life at any time. Whoever wants to quit, you can tell me, I never force everyone. ”

Liu Qi looked at them calmly, and when the thousand soldiers heard this, they each lowered their heads and pondered for a while.

One of them said: "Liu Fujun (referring to Liu Biao) and Mrs. Chen treat me well, whoever leaves is a bad seed!" Die? The head fell off but a bowl scar. What to fear! "No one leaves.

"I will swear to follow Childe to the death, follow Childe, and never give up in life and death!" Chen Zhi shouted at the right time, and thousands of people behind him shouted: "I will follow Gongzi to the death, and I will not give up in life and death!" ”

Liu Qi nodded slightly and handed Chen a piece of cloth. The above is all about the training methods of modern special forces, but considering that there are no modern weapons, Liu Qi can complete it by slightly changing all the content into cold weapons. Liu Qi said to Chen Zhi: "Uncle Zhi, this actual combat training is full of difficulties, I hope you can take us through these months safely." ”

"Lord, you..." Chen Zhi took the cloth and looked at Liu Qi in amazement, facing Liu Qi's eyes full of expectation and trust. Chen Zhi was moved in his heart, and said heavily: "The last general will live up to the trust of the lord." ”

"I'll be with you on this trip." Liu Qi said, "This actual combat training is the first shot fired by the establishment of our 'Tiger Battalion', and I hope everyone will be safe and sound after three months." ”

Liu Qi looked at these soldiers with no regrets, and shouted: "Today's task is to climb over this mountain on foot. Can it be done? ”

"Yes!"

"Good! Set off at once, and cross the Black Mountain at noon. Liu Qi said. The army marched out, and the formation of a thousand people remained unchanged, and they strode out and walked towards the top of the mountain.

Liu Qi quietly pulled Chen Zhi over, watched these soldiers move forward, and said to Chen Zhi in a low voice: "Uncle Zhi, if you don't understand the training along the way, tell me that you don't need to be rigid about etiquette." Although the burden is very heavy, the soldiers are not there. ”

Chen Zhi had already realized the power of Liu Qi's method of training troops as early as three months ago, and Liu Qi had a faint son's style in dealing with people and things on weekdays, so he didn't mind them bothering him. He said: "The last general will definitely not be polite to the lord, but this strange but very efficient method of training soldiers, who did the lord get it?" ”

"......" Liu Qi explained embarrassedly: "The teacher is a master of the world, when I learned this, the teacher warned not to let the world know his name, therefore..."

Chen Zhiran sighed and said, "There are so many strange people in the world, I am fortunate to have met the lord!" ”

Liu Qi smiled secretly, changed his words, and said, "Uncle Zhi, within three months, you still need to select two hundred nimble and alert soldiers to serve as the scout team of the Tiger Battalion; Two hundred brave and loyal soldiers served as guards, and the remaining six hundred soldiers were elite soldiers marked by white feathers, called Bai Wei soldiers, who could be of great use in the future. ”

Chen Zhi took a closer look at the training methods of scouts, guards and whites on the cloth, thought for a while from time to time, his eyes were full of joy, and said: "In this way, the last general will definitely train an elite army for the lord!" ”

Liu Qi patted Chen Zhi on the shoulder, and the two followed the large army. Liu Qi explained these training methods to him paragraph by paragraph, and Chen Zhi was like a treasure, wishing that Liu Qi could tell it slowly, or that time would stop at this moment.

************

In the first month, Liu Qi ordered Chen Zhi to train more than 1,000 people according to the military training of modern special forces, and selected 200 brave warriors who were flexible and vigilant and fearless of death, led by Liu Qi, as a scout team. After that, Liu Qi took the scout team of 200 people and left Chen Zhi and them at night.

Chen Zhi selected 200 strong men again and set up a personal guard team, and the remaining 600 people were trained according to the Bai Wei soldiers. When Liu Qi left, the requirements were very simple, the escort team and the white soldiers must be able to block ten with one block, and the degree of difficulty can be imagined. However, Chen Zhi didn't frown, he understood the importance of elite soldiers, and at the same time felt honored that Liu Qi completely trusted him, and he would do his best when he met the master!

Chen Zhi also knew a little bit about Liu Qi personally training with two hundred scouts, and since ancient times, the role of scouts has been no less than that of an outstanding military advisor. In this regard, he had no doubt that Liu Qi would be able to bring out a scout squad that was better than any of the princes' scouts. Regarding Liu Qi's departure, Chen Zhi had already guessed a little bit of eyebrows.

That is, Runan County is an important transportation town connecting the Central Plains and Jingzhou, and Liu Qi's ambition for Runan County has never been lacking. I am afraid that this time he personally led the team to conduct actual combat training, the purpose of which was to find out the distribution of all the forces in the county, so that he could be used as the actual combat object of this training, and taking down Yuan Shu's Runan County was just a gesture of reaching out.

Although Chen Zhi was a little worried about Liu Qi's still somewhat weak body, judging from the individual battles with Liu Qi in the past few months, he had suffered a lot of losses.

Runan County was under the governance of Yuan Shu's sheep, and the bandits were very arrogant, which affected the neighboring Yingchuan County a lot. Almost everyone in the clan in the county has moved away, including Runan County, which gives Liu Qi an opportunity.

"My lord, the thieves of Runan County have gathered more than 10,000 people, and I don't know where to go." A scout hurried over to report the military situation, Liu Qi's eyes lit up, and he said, "Have you ever asked who is in charge and which direction are they attacking?" ”

"Zhang You, a native of Runan, the thieves are short of food, and I am afraid they are plundering everywhere."

"Good! This thief should be the first battle in our scout camp! Who would dare to go with me to punish such a traitor?! Liu Qi couldn't help but shout, looking around.

"I'll follow the lord to the death!" The two hundred scouts immediately shouted, many of them had fought against the bandits in the past two months, and most of them were wounded. But every time they saw that the lord Liu Qi was also injured and still killed with them, their eyes were already red. The first soldier is talking about the kind of people like the lord, every time they fight, they are more desperate and brave; Each time they trained, they were more careful and careful.

"Everyone has suffered a lot of injuries, so don't fight hard this time." Liu Qi looked at these scouts who were almost all injured, and said: "This time, I will teach you a tactic, guerrilla warfare. ”

"Guerrilla warfare?" When everyone heard the new tactics of the lord, they were immediately excited. In the past two months, the lord has not only taught them to familiarize themselves with the knowledge of various scouts, but more importantly, let them know various combat tactics, and these scouts have been able to carry out various scout work on their own for a long time. Now they can get familiar with the new tactics, and they can't help but get excited.

"Leopard, let the brothers rest. Listen to my orders after dark. Liu Qi said to a scout leader next to him, this leader is an elite personally selected by Liu Qi in the past two months, brave, intelligent, alert, and alert, and he has almost all the qualities of a scout.

"Chen Bao takes the order!" Chen Bao is the leopard in Liu Qi's mouth, a member of the Chen clan, and also Chen Zhi's younger brother. Chen Bao waved his hand, waved the scout flag in his hand, and said, "The thieves will arrive at night, everyone hurry up and rest." Don't embarrass your lord if you lose your life! ”

"Yes!" A dry scout replied, and each took out his dry food and ate it carefully. The cost of the battle at night is estimated to be very large, otherwise the lord would not be so dignified.

As night fell, Liu Qi and Chen Bao led two hundred people to quietly approach the place where Zhang You's thieves were stationed in the dark night.

"The Gohara Valley ahead is where the thieves are stationed." Chen Bao took out a map-like cloth from his arms with the help of fluorescence, pointed to the distance and said.

"Sons! It's time to watch a good show. Liu Qi said in a deep voice: "The essence of guerrilla warfare is that the enemy is stationed and disturbs us, the enemy is tired and we fight, the enemy advances and retreats, and the enemy retreats and I chase these four points. Chen Bao listened and remembered, as if he had an understanding but didn't know what it meant.

"Now the thief army is stationed in Wuyuan Valley, and our task tonight is to harass the enemy and exhaust the troops." Liu Qi divided into three teams, each team of more than 60 scouts, divided into three directions to carry out a feint, "Tentative attack, whether you hit or not, you must retreat immediately, no one is allowed to fight!" ”

"The first essence of guerrilla warfare is to harass the enemy, remember. You all have to give Lao Tzu a safe return, and after the feint, it will be a disturbance to the enemy. Liu Qi's face was heavy, after all, the number of thieves was dozens of times that of his own, even if they were backward in weaponry, they had to be careful. These 200 people are all elite scouts brought out by him.

If you haven't experienced the tempering of war, how can you become an elite soldier? No matter how reluctant Liu Qi is, he can't let them take a risk. However, given that this feint attack was mainly to assess the geometry of the opponent's battle, Liu Qi still asked him to be careful.

"No!" Liu Qi was answered by a deep but powerful voice.
