After accepting one of his own soldiers, Lao Jin soon began to help Yang Chao train, and Yang Chao also promised to let him do it.

As a result, Lao Jin almost denied most of Yang Chao's previous training methods, and Yang Chao's military posture, pace, and basic training of turning steps Lao Jin was noncommittal, but Yang Chao's skill training method of linking assassination and archery was almost completely denied.

Li Wuliu trained archers for a year, and most of them were considered unsuitable by Lao Jin to practice archery.

Then Lao Jin himself was selected one by one in the army, Yang Chao followed closely behind him, and also hoped to learn some experience, Lao Jin did not hide, explaining while choosing.

One by one, the soldiers were lined up and sorted by Lao Jin, Yang Chao secretly pondered, and found that Lao Jin was roughly selected according to different types such as long arms, wide shoulders, thick arms, and long legs and thick legs.

Among them, he had long arms, and he carefully pinched the other party's muscles and bones, selected more than 50 people, and told Yang Chao to let these people practice archery The best.

Hundreds of people were picked out among the broad shoulders and told Yang Chao that these people could practice swords and shields.

The thick-armed, picked out hundreds of people, saying that they could practice heavy weapons such as knives and maces, and if they wanted to train the mandarin duck formation, they should be allowed to practice wolf milling.

Those with strong legs are said to be suitable for training cavalry.

was picked out of the rest, Lao Jin said that those are all in the posture of a Chinese person, just practice the spear casually, and follow the battle to kill.

Lao Jin's selection reminded Yang Chao of the method of selecting soldiers in Qi Jiguang's book, which should belong to the selection of soldiers, and Qi Dashuai asked the generals to select the newly recruited soldiers by themselves, obviously those generals are experienced.

It's just that Qi Dashuai didn't write about how to pick up soldiers, probably because the generals under Qi Dashuai are all experienced, at least not worse than Lao Jin, so he feels that picking up soldiers is a matter of course, and there is no need to write it.

But for the uninitiated. was confused, Yang Chao never understood why he looked like a man with a big waist and a round waist. One of them is a good hand at practicing swords and shields, and the other is a middle-aged man who is useless.

Yang Chao couldn't help but be curious. asked Lao Jin for advice: "Jin Lao, I don't know what kind of weapons this official is suitable for training. ”

The Yang family has been striking iron for generations, and his physical fitness is good, Yang Chao is one level taller than ordinary soldiers in terms of figure and muscles, and he feels that he is tall and fat, with a big waist and a round waist, he should be a good seedling.

Lao Jin first looked at Yang Chao's appearance, and then at Yang Chao's shoulder. The upper and lower arms, the upper and lower legs, and the various joints took a look at it and shook his head.

"It's okay for adults to practice sledgehammers, but the rest of the long guns, short sticks, wolves, milling, boring, palladium, knives and shields are not suitable!"

Yang Chao was both depressed and surprised, depressed that Lao Jin's expression obviously did not look down on his qualifications, and he said that the drill sledgehammer was acceptable, and he also spoke in a reluctant tone.

Surprisingly, Lao Jin actually said that he was suitable for practicing sledgehammers, because he had been striking iron for hundreds of years. Inherited the muscle genes that are suitable for hammering.

But Yang Chao was not convinced: "How can you see it? ”

Lao Jin said: "Adults have hard bones and must have courage, but the texture of the muscles and flesh is thick and short." But it has no long strength, and it is a sledgehammer that bursts with the courage of Xi Yong, which is better than other blades. ”

Yang Chao couldn't help but be surprised, and felt incredible about Lao Jin's ability to distinguish muscle textures with the naked eye.

According to the scientific research of later generations, there are indeed different types of human muscle textures, the explosiveness of muscle fibers is good, and the endurance of muscle fibers is good, so different races are good at sports. For example, black people with excellent physical fitness, black people in the southeast tropics of Africa, such as Kenya, are short and thin. The muscle fibers are elongated, so they are good at long-distance running. Marathons always win prizes; Tall black men from East and North Africa, with thick muscle fibers and explosive power, dominate sports such as the 100 meters.

Well, Yang Chao admits that the method of selecting troops requires eyesight, or experience, and those experiences are often unspeakable, and they are taken for granted by people with excess experience like Qi Dashuai, of course, they don't need to be specially explained, so Yang Chao can't train the Qi family army with just a book, of course, if you explore for a long time, you can also accumulate experience, and you should be able to learn the essence of the Qi family army in two or three years.

Seeing that what Lao Jin said was reasonable, Yang Chao was finally convinced, so he came according to Lao Jin.

So the eight hundred soldiers, including the former veterans, were all rearranged, and the best archers went to practice archery, the spearmen and shields practiced big guns, and the sword and shield seedlings practiced sword and shield.

In terms of martial arts training alone, Lao Jin's experience is completely overwhelming, and there is nothing to argue with others.

So a few days later, a group of re-selected teams were sorted.

Lao Jin has only one person, and he starts training as a gunner.

Yang Chao moved his heart, even if it is not suitable for people, there should be no harm in practicing, so he asked everyone to practice with Lao Jin.

Lao Jin practiced big guns, unlike Yang Chao who practiced spearmen, Yang Chao directly went to assassination, and felt that the steady and accurate assassination was enough to kill.

But Lao Jin didn't let the soldiers stab the target, but stood on the horse and walked with a gun one by one.

Yang Chao couldn't help but worry, because Xie Fei had been holding the gun for four years, of course, that kind of gun was different from the way Lao Jin let the soldiers pose now, Xie Fei was a martial artist who practiced martial arts, holding the tail end of the gun in one hand, and holding the gun flat with his arm, to the extent that he could not move the gun in one hand.

Lao Jin now asks the soldiers to hold guns, but they are just putting up a shelf, at most they are holding guns.

It is to hold the gun horizontally at his side, lunge forward and prepare for assassination at any time, which is similar to the separate form that Yang Chao practiced before.

But Yang Chao still had a good talk with Lao Jin, and Lao Jin said that he didn't want these people to hold guns for a few years, but just adjusted the fallacy in their posture, which means that Lao Jin thought that Yang Chao's previous training for assassination was a little wrong.

Yang Chao is a layman, and he feels that the assassination techniques he copied from later generations may be a little unscientific in terms of force, because he has not practiced assassination in later generations, and it is all based on impressions, and he probably has not completely copied it.

So Yang Chao also supported Lao Jin, and he also practiced, two days a day, ten days in a row, that is, lunges and guns, which was similar to the posture of his own training before, only slightly adjusted.

Ten days later, Lao Jin asked the soldiers to practice assassination, but instead of facing the target, a team of people lined up in front of them and stabbed them into the air.

Lao Jin said that directly letting the recruits stab the target can only practice dead power.

The so-called courage is more than enough, and dexterity is insufficient.

Yang Chao's explanation for this is. Directly stabbing a hard stake target may cause the soldier's muscles to have an inappropriate memory, because the human body is different from the target after all. When you go to the battlefield, you send the wrong message.

Yang Chao followed the practice, pondering while practicing. The stabbing air muscles do not bear the force of feedback on the stake, allowing the muscles to stretch naturally, and slowly find a pattern of assassination that suits each of them in different ways.

Yang Chao couldn't help but push back Lao Jin's selection of soldiers, the people he picked out were naturally the most suitable for practicing the corresponding weapons, but the human body is adaptable, and it is probably possible to improve those who are not suitable by slowly adapting.

Yang Chao has always believed that no one is not suitable for a certain skill, but he has not found a suitable method. People are adaptable.

So I am still firm in my heart, and in the future, I still have to let all soldiers practice big guns, after all, the assassination is the most powerful, and the spear is also the cheapest, in case the weapon in one hand is broken, or when charging, it can be replaced with a long gun to exert the maximum power.

Thorn Air also practiced for ten days.

Then there was still no target, Lao Jin said that Yang Chao's soldiers had all assassinated the target, and he should be allowed to adapt for a while longer.

He also said that when the Qi family army practiced in the past. Sometimes you have to hold a gun for a month, stab for a month, and then combine the real and virtual for a month. However, the specific situation will be based on the mastery of the officers, and it can be more than a few days, which requires experience, and Yang Chao is still very lacking.

On the thirtieth day, Lao Jin asked the soldiers to assassinate not air, not targets, but copper coins.

During the previous training, craftsmen had been invited to set up a lot of crossbars in the camp. It is built with cheap bamboo and wood, like the horizontal bar of later generations. It's also like a clothes rack, even Yang Chao thinks that Lao Jin wants to be a clothes drying pole. Because the shelves made of bamboo cannot be used as horizontal bars.

After the results were done, Lao Jin asked people to hang copper coins from above, but this time Lao Jin didn't move himself, but asked his apprentice Xie Fei to demonstrate.

During this time, Xie Fei practiced martial arts with Lao Jin every day, his training was different from others, when other soldiers were holding guns, he was squatting on the shelf, and when other soldiers were stabbing the air, he was still squatting on the shelf, Lao Jin said that let Xie Fei squat for half a year, and the abandoned foundation would be recovered, so Xie Fei was also very serious, he got up before dawn every day, except for eating, sleeping, and peeing, all the time was spent squatting on the shelf.

Now Lao Jin asked Xie Fei to squat under a crossbar, and then he adjusted the position of the copper coin, so that Xie Fei could stab the copper coin by stabbing it straight.

Then he shouted the order, Xie Fei took out the gun, and the tip of the gun lightly hit the copper coin, and the copper coin flew out after being beaten, and was pulled back by the rope, swinging in place.

Lao Jin ordered again and again, Xie Fei's spear was pointed, and every time he could stab the swinging copper coin.

Lao Jin said, this is called practicing skill, so that the position of the copper coin is adjusted to the most appropriate position, so that everyone can maintain a best posture, so as to further consolidate their correct shelf, only the right shelf, in order to send out the greatest power, but with the qualification of sending out the greatest power to stab the fluttering copper coin, this is called the combination of virtual and real.

Yang Chao was very convinced, but Yang Chao himself didn't hit it, even if it was the first time he didn't swing the copper coin, he had to stab it three or four times, even if those veterans with excellent assassination results might not be able to stab it the first time, as for the swinging copper coin, it was even more ten times that he couldn't be stabbed once, and the one that was won was probably luck.

Lao Jin said that Yang Chao practiced the target too early, and the soldier's body was stiffened, so he was not dexterous enough, and he used a copper coin to adjust it, and it would take at least a month to have an effect.

The training of the copper coin was handed over to Xie Fei, and Lao Jin began to help train other soldiers.

The first is the selected sword and shield soldiers, Lao Jin teaches these soldiers one move and one style, the knife is a single knife, and the shield is a round shield, all of which are made by the War Bureau.

The same is to put on a shelf, practice against the air, then cut the stake, then cut the air, and then cut the stake again and again, and so on, combining the virtual and the real.

In the end, I went to practice archers, and the tall and long-arm men selected were all very excited, because half of them were recruits.

In Yang Chao's previous selection system, the archers were the best people to practice assassination, Yang Chao's reason is that these people have better skills, but Lao Jin's reason is that these people are the most suitable, in fact, both truths are reasonable, but the concepts are different.

Lao Jin taught the archers the essentials of drawing the bow, how to exert force, etc., and also required the archers to insist on hanging their arms every day to practice arm strength. (To be continued)
