Chapter XXVII. Preliminary Integration
The mountain bandits looked at the elite of the blood killing camp in amazement, and listened to the slogans they shouted with indomitable momentum, and their hearts were shaken. At war with the Huns? In the era of the Eastern Han Dynasty, in the hearts of all Han people, no matter how weak the Han people, they all had the belief of fighting to the death with the Huns, after all, the grievances between the two sides were too deep. Everyone who fought against the Huns, in the eyes of the people of the Han Dynasty, was a hero!
Glancing down at the bandit leader, Ao Lie asked, "What's your name?" The bandit leader gasped and said, "I scream vigorously." Ao Lie smiled and continued, "Do you want to join my command?" Become a big man like them? Dali nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes!" As long as there is something to eat, no one wants to be a mountain bandit, let alone start a war with the Huns. β
Ao Lie Da Lang laughed a few times, and said to the mountain bandits: "Now, X will give you a chance, as long as you meet a few conditions, X can let you join the command." The premise is that you have to tell the truth. β
After a pause, Ao Lie shouted loudly again: "Anyone who has killed people and seen blood, come out of the ranks!" β
Among the more than 400 mountain bandits, more than 200 people walked out hesitantly and stood in front of Ao Lie in four rows. Ao Lie glanced at the more than 200 people, and said loudly: "Anyone who has been stained with the blood of the poor people will be listed!" Of the more than 200 people, more than 30 took a few steps forward.
Ao Lie's face turned cold, and he said in a deep voice: "Now I will teach you the first way to become an elite, that is, those who fish and flesh the common people, there is no forgiveness for killing!" With Ao Lie's words, more than 30 elite horsemen galloped out behind him, and galloped towards the more than 30 mountain bandits who came out of the ranks. Before anyone could react, more than thirty elites of the Blood Killing Battalion drew their steel knives at the same time and slashed them down in unison.
A bloody light filled the sky. A knife! To be exact, it was a knife per person, and the heads of more than 30 mountain bandits were accurately cut off. The whole process is smooth and complete.
Looking at more than thirty headless corpses, Ao Lie said coldly: "As an elite soldier of the Han Dynasty, you must always remember that it is your responsibility to take the safety of the Han people as your own responsibility!" Then, Ao Lie's tone softened, and he looked at the more than 160 people who came out of the queue for the first time, including Dali, and said: "From now on, you are the soldiers under my command, but if you want to become a real elite soldier in a hundred battles, you need to learn and work hard. You'll be able to experience it in a few days. β
After that, Ao Lieyou turned to the more than 200 mountain bandits who did not come out of the ranks and said: "You are all from poor people, and you are not suitable to be soldiers, so you should go back to your hometown and live a down-to-earth life." Someone among the more than 200 people said: "Please take us in, although we have not killed anyone, but we also want to be a big man and a real man!" Please trust us, general. β
Ao Lie couldn't help but hesitate, all along, he has been accustomed to elite combat, rashly accepting so many people with poor military quality, Ao Lie doesn't have a lot of patience to train them, you must know that Ao Lie himself has to accept Wang Ao's hard training every day! Where did you get so much free time to train recruits?
Just when Ao Lie hesitated, Xun Yu came to Ao Lie's side and said softly: "Lord, although the quality of this team is poor, it is better in the hearts of the people, and after training, it may not be impossible to become elite soldiers." Ao Lie nodded when he heard this, turned his head to Zhang Liao and said, "Wenyuan, do you have the confidence to train these people into elite soldiers in a short period of time?" Zhang Liao opened his mouth, as if to agree, but then shook his head again. Ao Lie was amused by Zhang Liao's movements, and asked with a smile, "What does Wen Yuan mean?" β
Zhang Liao replied: "If you want to do it quickly, it's not impossible, but this method is contrary to the purpose of the lord to lead the troops, so Liao didn't dare to agree to the lord." "Oh?" Ao Lie asked curiously, "What is the solution?" Zhang Liao replied: "There are still several other mountain bandits entrenched in the territory, if you want these recruits to mature quickly, you can train your troops in battle!" Let these recruits go to exterminate other mountain bandits, but in this way, casualties will inevitably occur, and the lord has always cherished the soldiers, so Liao did not dare to agree to the lord. β
Listening to Zhang Liao's story, Xun Yu hurriedly said: "Lord, those who achieve great things are not informal. Fighting a war is a dangerous thing, how can everything be complete? This time it was Ao Lie's turn to open his mouth and be speechless. In fact, Ao Lie also knows these truths, but as a traveler of later generations, the thoughts of modern people still occupy a lot of weight in Ao Lie's heart, and if he wants to watch thousands of people die in front of him without changing his face, he really can't do it. However, there is no other way now, if you want to occupy a place in the chaotic Han Dynasty after the death of Emperor Ling, it is impossible not to be ruthless.
Sighing, Ao Lie said to the more than two hundred mountain bandits who asked to surrender: "You are all recruits who have not been systematically trained, and if you want to become elite soldiers, you will have to pay a hard price, even your life. This must be made clear to you. Now, if anyone else wants to join a certain command, get out of the ranks. β
No one hesitated, no one hesitated, and more than two hundred recruits, who were about the same as ordinary people, took steps forward at the same time. Ao Lie was not entangled in this matter, turned his head and pointed at Zhang Liao and said: "This is General Zhang Liao Zhang Wenyuan, and in the future, he will be your commander." β
After solving the aftermath, Ao Lie lost the army to Zhang Liao, Xun Yu and Tian Chou, and rushed back to Fuzhong first. Because, Master Wang Ao, there is still a bunch of homework waiting to be done by himself.
In the next two months, Ao Lie returned to a peaceful life, and continued to receive Wang Ao's strict training every day painfully and happily. In the past two months, after Zhang Liao's initial integration of the bloody killing camp, he exterminated several groups of mountain bandits, so that the recruits in the Red Rock Valley grew rapidly, but they also paid a huge price. After several fierce battles with more than 300 recruits, only more than 200 people remained, and the battle damage was as high as 30%! In direct proportion to the huge battle losses, more than 200 recruits who survived the war have broken away from the title of recruits, although they have not yet reached the elite level of the veterans of the original bloody killing battalion, but their combat effectiveness is also growing rapidly, and I believe that it will not be long before they can complete the transformation to elite soldiers. After these two fierce battles, Zhang Liao selected some of the best prisoners of war and added them to the blood killing camp, making the number of blood killing camps reach 800 people.
With the growth of the strength of his subordinates, Ao Lie began to worry about armaments again, fortunately, two months ago, Shuang'er instructed Yuzhu and other four girls to learn to make gold silk leaves, and after selling all the gold silk leaves in the five women's inventory, Ao Lie made up a sum of money to solve the equipment problem of the blood killing camp. According to the equipment of the veterans, each soldier of the bloody killing battalion was equipped with willow leaf iron armor, steel knives, crossbows and war horses. Under Zhang Liao's careful guidance and strict training, the soldiers of the 800 Blood Killing Battalion, whether they were veterans or recruits, were proficient in the blood killing knife technique, and they were extremely proficient in various formations.
Just when Zhang Liao was about to march to the bandits outside Jijun to recruit troops, Ao Lie hurriedly shouted to stop. For no other reason, I have no money in my pocket, and I can't afford to support extra soldiers. Therefore, Zhang Liao had no choice but to suspend the purge and concentrate on training the army. Ao Lie put forward another suggestion to Zhang Liao, actual combat drills! What is Actual Combat? It is to divide the elite of the 800 blood killing battalion into two teams, one team for every 400 people, led by Ao Lie and Zhang Liao respectively, to conduct real sword and real gun confrontation training! Although it is a real battle, after all, there can be no bloodshed and sacrifice, so the armor worn by the soldiers is the willow leaf iron armor that is usually used, but the steel knives in their hands have been replaced with wooden knives of similar weight. Although it hurts to cut on the body, at least it ensures that no one will die in actual combat.
At the beginning, Ao Lie relied on his innate divine power and extraordinary martial arts, coupled with the art of war he learned from Wang Ao, no matter which team he led, he could easily win. Later, Zhang Liao also learned to be obedient, and refused to face Ao Lie alone, but pulled Xun Yu and Tian Chou to fight Ao Lie together. As the saying goes, three stinkers are top of one Zhuge Liang, not to mention Zhang Liao, Xun Yu and Tian Chou, the three characters who later became famous all over the world? As a result, it was not so easy for Ao Lie to deal with, and even some suitable tactics in later generations were used, but he still won less and lost more. In the end, Ao Lie could only make dangerous moves, relying on the experience and knowledge of later generations to win by surprise, but whenever Ao Lie racked his brains to come up with a dangerous move and narrowly defeated Zhang Liao and the three, after a few days, the three of them would figure out a set of corresponding restraint methods, and Ao Lie would be defeated.
So, Ao Lie had to search his stomach again to think of a new way, however, no matter what kind of dangerous moves and tricks Ao Lie made, it would not take a few days to be cracked by the three of them. In the end, Ao Lie simply brought his master Wang Ao in, and the master and apprentice fought against Zhang Liao, which was a draw. In this process of mutual confrontation, Ao Lie's endless tricks not only shocked Zhang Liao and the others, but even Wang Ao Lao Zu was also amazed. These people inspired and encouraged each other, which not only made the relationship between them deeper and deeper, but also further deepened the sense of belonging and identity of the elite of the Eight Hundred Blood Killing Camp, making them feel proud to be a member of the Blood Killing Camp.
In the blink of an eye, it is almost the end of the year. A piece of news caught all of Ao Lie's attention. Nearly four months have passed since Wang Ao Laozu sent a letter to Tong Yuan and invited Tong Yuan to come to Jixian County to meet. Now, Tong Yuan finally came out in the midst of a long wait, and asked someone to bring a letter, which said that after receiving a letter from Wang Ao Laozu, Tong Yuan planned to come to meet immediately, but because the two disciples were at a critical moment of cultivation, they had to postpone the trip. But I promise that I will definitely come to meet Wang Ao Ancestor before the New Year, and I heard that Wang Ao Ancestor accepted Ao Lie as an apprentice, so this time I came with two proud protΓ©gΓ©s, so that the younger generations can compete with each other and grow together.
There is also good news. It was Liu Yu who led Ao Lie to lead his subordinates to exterminate all the mountain bandits in Jixian County, and went to the imperial court. Ling Emperor Liu Honglong Yan Dayue greatly praised Ao Lie in front of hundreds of civil and military officials. Originally, Ao Lie's exploits were not so great, and he exterminated a total of six or seven bandit dens before and after, and there were only more than 5,000 mountain bandits in total. But Liu Hong was bitten by a snake because of the Yellow Turban Uprising, and he was afraid of the well rope for ten years. In addition, Liu Hong watched his relatives and eunuchs compete for power, and intended to set up a group of capable and effective royal relatives to maintain the Han Dynasty, just at this time Liu Yu's performance came, Liu Hong took the opportunity to pick up Ao Lie, although Ao Lie has changed his surname, but after all, he also has the blood of Gaozu in his body, after all, he is also the son of the emperor's brother Liu Yu, isn't it?
So, Liu Hong made a decision at the moment, crowned Ao Lie as the general of Huwei, and gave him the title of Marquis of Baishengting. In this way, Ao Lie, who was only ten years old and worshiped the new generation of princes who would be crowned, was freshly baked.
