There was a boulder next to the camp, I don't know what it was for, but it was obviously a long time ago, and at the bottom of the boulder, part of it had sunk into the dirt, and the whole boulder seemed to grow out of the ground. Reading at zero o'clock

Han Mo walked to the boulder in the eyes of everyone's contempt and disdain, groaned slightly, and finally bent down, touched the boulder with both hands, knowing that this stone weighed three hundred catties anyway, and ordinary people really couldn't lift it.

When everyone saw Han Mo Dao to the side of the stone, they didn't know what Han Mo wanted to do for a while, and their eyes were focused on Han Mo's body.

Xia Houde touched his beard and smiled coldly, thinking in his heart: "Could it be that this kid still wants to move this stone?" ”

This boulder is not lightweight, even in the Northwest Army, there are very few people who can move, if such a young Sven family can move this stone, Xia Houde absolutely does not believe it.

Everyone held their breath for a while, watching Han Mo bend down and hug the boulder, their eyes widened, wanting to see if Han Mo really had the ability to move the stone away.

Many people are ready for jokes.

In fact, Han Mo was really reluctant to show his skills in front of these people, but Xia Houde was aggressive, and deliberately made things difficult in front of so many soldiers, if he showed weakness, it would make the soldiers look down on him even more, and the reputation of the incompetence of the children of the Han family would probably be deliberately spread by some well-intentioned people at the border.

Shoot when it's time to make a move, since Xiahoude is aggressive, Han Mo can use this opportunity to let these soldiers quietly do what the Han family is capable of.

If you are stronger than them, in their eyes, you will have respect.

If you show your means and let the soldiers have a sense of respect or two, there is nothing wrong with it, maybe the soldiers will spread it in the future, and you will be able to leave a good name in the Northwest Army.

……

Everyone only saw Han Mo roaring in a low voice, and when they were surprised, they saw that Han Mo let go of his hand, and his hand didn't move, Han Mo stood up, clapped his hands, and began to circle around the boulder twice, and then shook his head.

Han Mo deliberately mobilized the emotions of these people, but Xiahoude and the soldiers thought that Han Mo was admitting that he was not good, and suddenly someone in the crowd laughed.

Xiahoude also laughed and said loudly: "General Han, it's really not good, don't be difficult for yourself!" ”

Han Mo raised his head, looked at Xia Houde and said with a smile: "Lord Commander, it's not impossible for Han Mo, it's just a pity that such a good boulder can't be used to build the city wall!" He didn't hesitate anymore, he hugged the boulder with both hands, this time he didn't dare to make a mistake, the "Immortal Sutra" surged with energy, and his body was filled with the infinite power that had been secretly passed down from generation to generation of the family, and with a low roar, the roots of the boulder slowly emerged from the soil.

Exclamations were already heard from the crowd.

Almost no one thought that this young man could really pull a boulder, and the weight of this boulder, let alone pulling it out of the dirt, ordinary soldiers could not even push it.

In front of everyone's eyes, Han Mo really slowly pulled the boulder out of the soil.

The strange smile on Charhoude's face also began to become a little funny, and the hand that had been stroking his beard stopped at this time and forgot to stroke it.

Han Mo's body was not burly, holding the boulder, he walked slowly, walking more than ten steps away, and then put the boulder on the ground, then stood up straight and clapped his hands gently.

Everyone was a little stunned, and when they looked at Han Mo blankly, Han Mo had already walked to the side of an archer, stretched out his hand, and said with a gentle smile: "Borrow a bow!" ”

The soldiers of the Northwest are always on alert, whether they are infantry soldiers or archers, their weapons are always ready by their side.

Seeing that Han Mo was going to borrow a bow and arrow, the archer hurriedly took his longbow from the side, which was nothing more than a stone hard bow.

Han Mo didn't say much, took a stone hard bow, and then took the feather arrow presented by the other party, looked everywhere, and saw a flagpole set up not far away, and a flag was hung on the flagpole, with the word "Xiahou" written on it, under the firelight, the two words seemed very clear, and the flag was also fluttering in the night wind.

Han Mo took more than ten steps back, and he was already quite far away from the flagpole, several meters farther than the distance that the archers of the border army usually trained.

Bent the bow and set up the arrow, pulled the bow full, and aimed it at the flagpole, Han Mo took a deep breath, and the two that pinched the tail of the arrow were gently loosened, and the arrow was like a meteor, shooting straight towards the flagpole.

"Da!"

Everyone clearly saw that the feather arrow was on the flagpole, and what was even more surprising was that the feather arrow was half deep, which showed that the power of this feather arrow when it was shot was also terrifying.

Han Mo showed his hands in a row, and he was even hit by an arrow, and the soldiers were stunned for a moment, and then someone couldn't help but shout: "Good shot!" "He was a good hand in the archers, and he could tell at a glance whether his archery skills were good or bad.

When the soldiers saw that the young general really had good means, they all shouted for a while.

Han Mo smiled and handed the longbow back to the soldier, and said with a smile: "This is a good bow!" ”

Xiahoude finally came to his senses and sighed: "The bow may not be a good bow, but this skill is a real skill!" He stepped forward, with a smile, he patted Han Mo's shoulder without scruples, and said like an elder: "General Han, it's good, I didn't embarrass our Yan country warriors, this is the general of my Yan country!" ”

Xia Houde didn't hate the children of the family, for him, the objects he hated were those noble children who had no real skills and only rose to prominence by virtue of their background.

If the children of the family have real skills, he will naturally not be disgusted, just like the current Northwest General Xiao Huaiyu, who is also a child of the family, but his ability is unmatched, and Xiahou De is in awe.

Han Mo showed his hands, just as Han Mo himself expected, this group of northwest soldiers, including Xia Houde, had a great change in their impression of Han Mo, and they thought that this boy was just a little sheep, but at this time he found out that it was a fierce eagle.

"These three-legged cats' tricks are just the kung fu of one enemy!" Han Mo said modestly: "Commanding tens of thousands of soldiers like Lord Zongbing, and making them look like wolves and tigers one by one, this is the real general of my Dayan!" ”

Xiahoude smiled, waved his hand and said: "The doorway of commanding the army is too profound, I just learned to scratch the surface." Approaching Han Mo's ear, he lowered his voice and said: "Don't hide it from General Han, Xiahou De can't read a few big characters, if you want to read the military newspaper, you have to read it to me." The way I led the troops, firstly, I have slowly figured out my way after so many years, and on the other hand, I have been taught by the general from time to time, so I have grown. ”

Han Mo had also read a lot of military books, and there were also a lot of introductions in the military books on the marching formation, but he knew that even if he had read ten infantry books, he might not be as useful as Xia Houde's experience in fighting one or two wars.

The so-called talk on paper is far from the experience gained through iron-blooded fighting on the battlefield.

"The chief soldier is humble!" The two of them left the camp and got on their horses and walked side by side: "Actually, Han Mo really wants to ask the chief soldier for advice on how to unify the army, but it's a pity that he will leave here tomorrow, time does not allow, it's a pity!" ”

Xia Houde said with a smile: "General Han, if the turmoil has begun today, my Dayan will have to go to war with the enemy sooner or later." You are still young, you have to learn the way of commanding the army, and there is time. After a pause, he reined in his horse, looked up at the towering wall of Zhuanshui Pass, and then looked at the continuous camp from afar, muttered for a long time, and finally turned his eyes to Han Mo, "General Han, when it comes to using soldiers, every general has his own set of methods on the battlefield. Some are familiar with water warfare, some are familiar with jungle warfare, some prefer to fight in mountain areas, and some prefer to fight in the plains. When it comes to tactics, some like ambushes, some like logistics, and some are good at encircling and ......! ”

Han Mo looked at Xia Houde quietly and listened carefully to his words.

"Under my command, many generals are all geniuses, some are good at using cavalry assault, some like to use archers, they all have their own talents, and many generals can make full use of the terrain and climate of the environment to make correct military judgments......!" Xia Houde looked at Han Mo and said calmly: "When I first joined the army, I only knew how to kill the enemy bravely, and I didn't know these routines, but after a long time, I slowly became familiar with it. There was a time when I was thinking hard about how to conduct cavalry battles in the mountains, and I happened to be discovered by the general, who praised me for knowing how to be motivated, and finally told me that a true general is naturally indispensable to know how to use troops, but more importantly, he knows how to use people, and more importantly, how to make his brothers under his command how to order and prohibit, and give the same orders! ”

When Han Mo heard Xiahoude say this, he began to have a good impression of this Xiahou general, and the unhappiness that Xiahoude brought to him before had long since disappeared.

Although this Xia Houde is in a high position in the general army all the way, but he does not have much of a shelf, and his temperament is also straightforward, he was full of disdain for himself before, and he showed his hands, the attitude of this general soldier immediately changed, obviously a general who attaches importance to real talent and learning, and at this time he did not hesitate to say his general experience, and he was indeed not a scheming and cunning person.

Xiahoude pondered for a moment before asking, "General Han, in your opinion, how to make the brothers under your hands twist into a rope?" You see, these are living people, not pigs or sheep. Everyone has their own ideas, their own temperament, their own ambitions, their hometowns belong to the six counties of Dayan, each has its own habits, so that tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of different minds condense together, into a fist, is not an easy thing! ”

Han Mo nodded slightly.

As Xia Houde said, the real commander of the army is not as some people imagine, as soon as the flag is waved, the soldiers under his hands are all bravely moving forward, and everyone obeys their orders.

Everyone has their own ideas, a soldier is a mind, a soldier is a temperament, if only those strict military regulations are used to restrain these countless minds, it is impossible for these people to really unite from the bottom of their hearts.

No matter what kind of war is waged, no matter what tactics are used, the most important point is to naturally ensure that the officers and men under his command are of one heart and one mind and ensure that military orders can be unimpeded; otherwise, even if a general has a genius tactical mind, he cannot let the officers and men under his command work with one heart and one mind, and then no matter how good the tactics are, it is impossible to fully implement and give full play.

Xia Houde said a few words, but it pointed out the root of the use of soldiers, and Han Mo thought so.

"Han Mo is ignorant, please ask the chief soldier for advice!" Han Mo arched his hand.

Xia Houde smiled and said: "Actually, to put it bluntly, if a general wants his soldiers to obey orders, he must let his soldiers have enough to eat. He raised his hand, touched his thick beard and said, "Just like the eight words that the general confessed to me at the beginning!" ”

"Which eight words?"

"There are clear rewards and punishments, and only talents are appointed!" Xiahoude stared at Han Mo and said word by word.
