Chapter Twenty-Four: The Snow Wolf Army

I don't know when something strange happened in Dongjun City, and the earth-shattering shouts of killing have been endless, and the people who don't know why have discussed it, thinking that the Black Mountain thieves are coming back.

"Zilian, go and see what's going on, is it the Montenegrin army attacking the city?" Cao Cao was working in the Taishou Mansion at this time, but he was startled by the sudden shouting of killing, it could be that the Black Mountain Army attacked the county seat.

Cao Hong didn't care much about this shout: "Big brother, you just put your heart in your stomach, this is not the siege of the Black Mountain Army at all, this is Ming'er training his soldiers." ”

Cao Cao threw the official document on the case and said, "You said that this is Ming'er training her soldiers? Why did this girl make such a big move in military training, no, I have to go and see her. ”

Cao Ren hurriedly grabbed Cao Cao and said: "Don't go, lord, what's so good about this military training, if you want to go next time, I will accompany you, now you still have to deal with official business." ”

In the martial arts arena in the north of Dongjun City, three thousand soldiers fought together, but Cao Ming, as the commander, was watching the play at this time, and he still shouted a few hellos from time to time, giving people the feeling of watching juggling.

But Cao Ming did this for a reason: "When you train, you must treat your teammates as enemies, but none of you are allowed to dare to do it, safety comes first." ”

Then Cao Ming ordered someone to bring some jars: "These jars are full of fine pork, and those who persist to the end have meat to eat, otherwise they can only drink the soup left over by others!" ”

When the soldiers heard this, they worked even harder, and almost all of them treated the people around them as enemies, and the wrestling battles became more lively.

Yang Heng saw that the corners of some people's mouths were bleeding, and immediately said to Cao Ming: "General, I don't understand a little, you let us tie up heavy objects all day long, forget it, why do you let the brothers work so hard?" ”

Cao Ming pointed to a soldier who was knocked to the ground and said: "I think your usual training is too child's play, if you train according to your method, the soldiers will be inert after a long time, my method is to keep them on the battlefield at all times, always maintain the best combat condition." ”

Soon it was noon, and after half a day of competition, only a few hundred people stood strongly, and the rest were too tired to get up, and most of them had no light injuries on their bodies.

Cao Ming knew that the expected effect had been achieved: "Everyone is doing very well, we will start training tomorrow and others, and now the winner will come to me to receive meat." ”

Yang Heng was worried that the new training would be more harsh, so he asked Cao Ming in advance: "General, I have something I want to ask you, what is this new training, and will it be more difficult?" ”

Cao Ming pretended to be mysterious and said: "This new training is actually not difficult, but I plan to carry it out in two stages, you will know about this first stage tomorrow, and it just so happens that I also have something to ask you, is there a river near this Dongjun City?" ”

Yang Heng thought back for a while and said: "General Huiyu, there is really a river near this Dongjun City, and I know the specific direction, but I don't know what the general is looking for the river?" ”

"Swim across!" Cao Ming said a word without thinking, but Yang Heng didn't understand the meaning for a long time.

There are two kinds of swimming, but most of the ancient wars were land battles, and few generals trained soldiers to swim, that is, the states and counties near the Yangtze River only had sailors.

But Cao Ming's military order Yang Heng did not dare to disobey, which caused the people in the city to have a lively look, nearly 3,000 soldiers ran out of the city every afternoon, people thought that they were going out to exterminate the bandits, but in fact, Cao Ming was training his own soldiers.

When these soldiers came back, the people were all surprised, they were all clean when they went out, but when they came back, they became soup chickens.

Of course, this is only one of the new training programs, and this second cultural training is the focus of Cao Ming's plan, during the Three Kingdoms period, the education level of soldiers was very low, and most of the literate and skilled soldiers were senior generals.

In order to improve the overall quality of this team, Cao Ming decided to work hard to teach them to read and write, and during this period, he also brought in his uncle Cao Ren, and asked Cao Ren to serve as a teacher in the army, teaching those low-level officers to learn the art of war.

In short, Cao Ming's goal is to create a super-first-class strong army, and it is best to reach the level of making the enemy frightened, anyway, Dongjun City has enough food and weapons, and it is okay to toss as much as he wants.

A month passed quickly, and now that the soldiers were accustomed to these high-intensity trainings, Cao Ming knew that he had to increase the difficulty again.

So Cao Ming took advantage of the fact that these soldiers were sleeping, and sent people to set fire to the soldiers' tents, which was to exercise the soldiers' reaction ability when they were attacked.

At first, the soldiers were at a loss for what to do, but as the number of Cao Ming's night attacks increased, the soldiers' reaction speed also began to become faster, not only to counterattack in an orderly manner, but also to protect the granary and the general's tent.

The results of the training were beyond Cao Ming's expectations, she didn't expect that the potential of these people would be so great, it seems that the acceptance ability of this ancient person is not bad.

After Cao Ming's high-intensity training, this Black Mountain bandit army, which had only surrendered to the imperial court not long ago, gradually became an elite army that could fight one against ten.

At the same time, Cao Ming also gave this army a new name, this new name is called the Snow Wolf Army, Cao Ming hopes that these soldiers are as wise as wolves, and like wolves, they are not afraid of strong enemies to defeat their opponents.

At this time, it was close to autumn, and Cao Ming said earnestly: "Through these months of training, your abilities have been greatly improved, but this is still not enough for an invincible army, from today onwards, we will do things close to the people!" ”

The next day the people of the city discovered a novelty, and there were many soldiers standing at the door of their houses, and these soldiers were carrying the tools used to repair the houses, and they also claimed to repair the houses for the people.

This is a new task given by Cao Ming to the soldiers, to help the people repair their houses, on the one hand, it can change the people's perception of the soldiers, and on the other hand, it can also allow the soldiers to get exercise, which is equivalent to killing two birds with one stone.

"Big brother, have you heard?" Cao Hong suddenly ran to the Taishou Mansion in a hurry, seeing that there must be 100,000 urgent things in this situation.

Cao Cao suddenly had an answer in his heart: "Don't be in a hurry to say it slowly, is it because Yu Poison and Wei have taken action, or is it a letter from Yuan Shao?" ”

Cao Hong took a breath and said: "Big brother, listen to me, in fact, what I want to say has nothing to do with these two things, I found a strange thing on the way here just now, there are many soldiers on the street who are helping the people repair their houses." ”

Cao Cao was stunned when he heard this: "Aren't our soldiers all in the camp, when will there be more people in the city, you hurry up and ask me what's going on?" ”

Cao Ren walked in with a yawn at this time: "Big brother, you don't have to bother to ask someone, those soldiers are all soldiers of the Snow Wolf Army, and they are the troops trained by Ming'er!" ”

Cao Cao smiled and said, "I thought she was embroidering there all day, but I didn't expect to really make some achievements." ”

Cao Ren slapped his back and said: "Big brother, you are very wrong, I have never seen such training since I was born, I estimate that in the Snow Wolf Army, any soldier can be an uncle." ”

Cao Cao frowned and said: "You don't pat her on the back here, I haven't asked you yet, Ming'er's army is only 3,000 people, and now the cost is calculated according to 10,000 people." ”

Cao Ren thought for a moment and replied, "I haven't told you about this yet, but then she recruited another two thousand soldiers, and now the actual number of the Snow Wolf Army has reached five thousand, and she has created a new batch of weapons and armor. ”

Cao Cao felt more and more interesting: "I said that the money in the Dongjun Mansion is too small, it turns out that this girl has been swept away, and I have to ask her for an explanation when I find an opportunity." ”

At this moment, the streets have been completely renewed, and the people are bringing water and food to the soldiers, a sight that can only be seen in the prosperous times.

In his spare time, the soldiers sat on the ground, and Cao Ming asked again: "How do you feel about today's harvest, don't tell me that you only eat the people's food, but neglect the people's work." ”

One of the soldiers stood up and replied: "Don't hide it from the general!" I was originally the Black Mountain Army under Bai Huan, at that time I only knew how to kill people and plunder money, I was simply a living beast, now I think back to the beginning I really had the heart to die, the life of the people is not easy, I also rob them for my own selfish interests, I decided to protect their safety in the future. ”

"General, I think so too!" "Report to the General! There was a girl who saw that I was literate and was willing to be my wife! "Haha! You kid just brag! ”

The soldiers, every word you and I say, are describing the feelings of doing good deeds today, Cao Ming saw this and felt relieved, these soldiers have found the meaning of their existence.

Two days later, the document that Cao Cao had been looking forward to really came, Yuan Shao is now the new Jizhou pastor, and at the same time, Yuan Shao did not forget to show Cao Cao as the Taishou of Dongjun, and the original Taishou Wang Qiu of Dongjun has been dealt with by Cao Cao in private, and both of them got what they wanted most.

At this time, Chang'an City, which is far away, is also full of murderous opportunities, Wang Yun used the beautiful Diao Chan to separate Lu Bu and Dong Zhuo, the purpose is to let Lu Bu help him get rid of the thief, after all, if Dong Zhuo does not die for a day, the country will be unstable for a day.

This is just the most developed in this year is Uncle Liu Huang, Liu Bei has changed from a scattered person to a plain phase at this time, and he has also added a fierce general Zhao Yun to his banner.

Of course, the unluckiest thing in this year was Sun Ce, because he lost his father because of a jade seal, and the most aggrieved thing was that in order to keep the territory of Jiangdong, he had to compromise with his father's murderer.

At the same time, Cao Cao also prepared the next step, a small Dongjun obviously could not satisfy his appetite, and his goal was the entire Yanzhou Department.
