The next day, Jiang Xuan got up early and said goodbye to his father.

"Xuan'er, today you go to pay homage to Wenjun, if nothing else, there will be an official and a half-position, although you are not yet in the age of a weak crown, but you must also have a table." Jiang Cheng put down the bamboo slip in his hand and said.

"Jin listens to Father's words." Jiang Xuan heard this, and hurriedly bowed down and bowed.

"Your name is Xuan, that is, the meaning of words, but be cautious of words, I will give you the word Jinyan. Can? Jiang Cheng beat the couch rhythmically with his hand, frowned and thought for a long time, and said in dialect.

"Father Xie gave the word. The son will live up to his father's hopes. Jiang Xuan bowed down again.

"Okay, you go to find Mingzhi, go and pay homage to Wenjun!" Jiang Cheng said with relief.

Jiang Xuan resigned from his father, in addition to the door, Yu Lixi found Chen Ning, and went to pay homage to Wen Chou together.

……

In the morning, Wen Chou got up early and shook his head, intending to dissipate the drunkenness left over from yesterday's drunkenness. He also found Yan Liang, Wenba, Liu Zhong and other people, and rode their horses to Taolinsai.

"How does Wen Jun want to train the villagers?" Dong Jiang asked on the road.

"Of course, I taught him to practice the art of martial arts, so that he could be as brave as me! Wouldn't it be nice to go into battle and kill the enemy, haha. Without waiting for Wen Chou to answer, Wen Ba smiled heartily on the side.

Wen scandal said, Yan Sheng blamed Wen for being overbearing: "What is the courage of the horseman? Even if they are like Gongji, Zizheng, you and me, they are only ten enemies and a hundred enemies. It's a pity that Xiang Ji, the overlord of Western Chu, was not good at studying when he was young, and he couldn't do fencing, so his Ji father Xiang Liang was furious and asked him what he wanted? He replied, 'The sword, one enemy, is not enough to learn.' Learn from all enemies'. ......, one enemy or ten enemies are nothing at all, and ten thousand enemies are the heroes of the world. ”

The overlord of Western Chu is famous, and Wenba knows it. He asked, "Then how can you become a hero?" ”

"The soldiers are trained as Wushi, under one order, advance and retreat neatly, the generals are united, and they are not afraid of tens of millions of enemy camps, which is ten thousand enemies." Wen Chou thought for a while and said.

Wen Ba muttered: "'If you are not afraid of tens of millions of enemy camps, you are ten thousand enemies'." "I was fascinated, clenched my fists, and secretly determined that I must train my soldiers well and become the enemy of ten thousand people. It's just that there is one thing that is not clear, that is, Wen Chou still hasn't said how to practice. He asked, "Big brother, how should I practice?" ”

Wen Chou has long thought about this question. Wen Chou immediately replied: "The way of practice is nothing more than the following three points. First, practice its discipline. Second, practice its strength, and third, practice its skills. And discipline is the mainstay, supplemented by strength and skill, and all three are indispensable. There is only discipline, and God is invisible; There is only strength, and there is only one reckless man; Only the skill is also the courage of the horseman! It's not enough! ”

"So, what is discipline?" Dong Jiang became interested and asked.

"If you want to be disciplined, you must first be orderly." Wen Chou said.

"What is order?" Dong Jiang said again.

This is the reason why the army should be organized into a trilogy, with teams set up at the rate of the troops, and subordinate divisions and corps, each of which chooses its own strengths and commands them separately, and in this way it is orderly from top to bottom. Discipline can only be talked about after order. In short, discipline is to be within the ministry, and the subordinates absolutely obey the orders of the superiors. Wen Chou said.

"The villagers are the heads of the Qian, who usually come and flock to each other, taking advantage of the momentum of the big victory, they still have some effect, and they can also obey the orders of the officials, just like the Taolin Sai defeated the thieves. But this is only when there is an advantage, if you encounter an enemy army that stubbornly resists, and the advantage is not on our side, such as being in the ambush of Li Damu's troops that day, it is the time of life and death, it is inevitable that there will be cowards, I am afraid that I will not be able to let them obey orders. ......, it is difficult to make subordinates absolutely obey the orders of superiors, what does Wen Jun think? Hearing this, Dong Jiang pondered for a moment and said. He participated in both battles, and he has a deep memory of the contrast between the villagers' performances before and after.

"Do you know that when you were in the pre-Qin period, your grandson trained in the army?" Wen Chou said.

"Sun Tzu has heard a lot about military training, but he doesn't know it, and I ask Wenjun to explain it in detail." Dong Jiang said embarrassedly.

"Briefly, it is the grandson who was ordered by the king of Wu to train the palace maids, and the king of Wu made the princess the captain, but the palace maids laughed and laughed during the training, and did not listen to the command, and the grandson executed the captain princess by military law, and the princess was the most favored concubine of the king of Wu, but she was still corrected. After killing the concubine, the palace ladies obeyed their words and soon became well-trained. Wen Chou said simply.

Dong Jiang was suddenly startled, and said in embarrassment: "Kill? They are all villagers, how can they start? "According to the law of the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty, the criminal law cannot be arbitrarily tampered with, of course, if the military law is really violated, the punishment of beheading is also unquestionable.

Wen Chou smiled: "We are training soldiers, and we will go to the scene in the future, of course, we must strictly manage it!" It is not the usual organization of villagers' drills, to prepare for thieves in autumn and winter, and to prevent thieves in spring and summer. But then again, if I had no choice but to do so, I would not have beheaded people according to Sun Tzu's method of military training, but only needed to learn the meaning of military training. ”

When Dong Jiang heard Wen Chou's words, he relieved himself and asked, "Then what is the meaning of his military training?" ”

"Orders forbidden."

"How can you do it?"

"Merit is rewarded, and if there is a mistake, it must be punished, and it is clear by reward and punishment. Establish majesty to make them fearful, and establish credibility to make them believe. prestige, then the order prohibits. This soldier is also the usual law! ”

Dong Jiang lowered his head and thought for a while, nodded, and said, "I understand." You say that one is to practice discipline, and the other is to practice strength. How to train your strength? ”

Wen Chou said with a smile: "The method of practicing qi strength cares about the way of durability, not overnight!" Otherwise, I wouldn't have made strength the primary condition for recruitment! ”

"The way to last is to work hard like we usually do?" Wenba asked.

"Exactly, practicing its strength, there are three advantages, one of which can make people's hearts resolute; second, the ability to continue the war is very strong; Third, the effect of slashing the enemy is even better! Wen Chou said.

"I also know that technique, it's the technique we have cultivated! Do you say, big brother? Wen Ba shouted.

"No, how can ordinary villagers be like us, we haven't been invaded by martial arts for more than ten years? And the villagers are different, if they are allowed to study for more than ten years, won't they not have to fight? Wen Chou knocked Wen Ba and said.

"What does Wen Jun mean?" Dong Jiang said.

"Only some simple and practical sword slashing and sword shooting skills and bow shooting skills are trained. It's the array and the strength that really work! Wen Chou sighed.

"Wen Jun's worries are far better than waiting for me!" Dong Jiang thought about it and said.

Wen Chou looked into the distance and said leisurely: "Actually, there is another point, which I haven't explained, is to train the courage of soldiers!" ”

"What, Daring?" Dong Jiang said in surprise.

"Well, if the army has no courage, how can it become an army!" Wen Chou said coldly.

"Wen Jun's intention is to make the soldiers have the heart to sacrifice their lives and forget their lives? Although there is a strong enemy in front of you, there is also the momentum to move forward bravely? Liu Zhong listened for a long time before interjecting.

"Well, that's exactly what Zizheng said! The so-called iron army, the courage to push the first! Wen Chou said.

"So how can we make soldiers brave and courageous?" Dong Jiang said.

"Kill the thief." Wen Chou said resolutely: "Only soldiers who have experienced war will be brave soldiers!" Since ancient times, the Iron Army has not come down from the battlefield! ”

Dong Jiang was dumbfounded: "We can't take the villagers around and take the initiative to find thieves?" ”

"Haha. There is no need to rush to practice courage. The basis of courage and courage is discipline, as long as we can practice discipline first, so that the ranks are orderly, advance and stop in an orderly manner, and use it like an arm, although the enemy has tens of millions, and then do not hesitate to die when they hear the order, and the valley of money is piled up like a mountain, and the order is to retreat without reviewing. If you can practice like this, even if you are not a 10,000-strong enemy, at least a 1,000-person enemy. Wen Chou said with a laugh.

This is also true. Hey. When Dong Jiang heard this, he smiled and said.

"Rest assured, as the captain of Taolin and the commander of an army, I will not push my army into the abyss! We share weal and woe," Wen Chou assured.

"Wenjun is righteous!" Dong Jiang said.

……

They talked and talked about it, and passed through the field, and soon came to Taolinsai. At this time, Jiang Xuan and Chen Ning rushed to the official temple, and when they inquired, they learned that Wen Chou had led people to Taolinsai, and then rushed towards Taolinsai non-stop.
