Chapter 747: Training

In the camp, the soldiers were training in full swing, a scene that Jia Xu had never seen before. Although he has been an official for more than ten years, he is a petty official, his official position is not high, and he is not an official who governs a place. But because of his own talent, he is also an indispensable role in the government. Every time a senior official arrives, he will rely on him to carry out control and governance under his rule, and he can be called a confidant.

Therefore, Jia Xu's insight has always been far beyond that ordinary officials can compare, and the more he has seen, the more he thinks. He has also seen the training of county soldiers, and the scenes and effects of training with a large number of people are really not good.

Compared to the soldiers of Gao Shun, it is completely incomparable.

The reason why Jia Xu resigned was not all because of his parents at home, but also because he had seen the twilight of the imperial court. Whether it's above or below, a dying breath comes out from the top down.

The outbreak of the Yellow Turban Rebellion also confirmed the correctness of his view, because he was not optimistic about the current situation, Jia Xu wanted to go home and serve his parents well. For him, the imperial court can't be counted on, and his ability to be a politician is still struggling to this day, not to mention how many talents have been buried in the whole world.

The armament is eroding, and the ordinary training of the county soldiers is mostly coping. Including supervising the postal service and visiting various places, when they came to the local area, they did not see the results of the soldiers' training, but went to the mansions of those officials to drink and eat food, and took bribes.

If you can't come up with the money, there is no way to bribe the officials who supervise the post, so you will naturally be swept to the end. Officials who can get bribes will eventually take most of the money from ordinary people. Not to mention, in the entire thirteen states, how many officials became officials by buying officials, and how many people were friends of the ten permanent servants.

Politics can't work, and neither can the natural army. Since ancient times, any war, any elite army, is inseparable from one word, money.

People want money, horses need money, equipment costs money, everything is about money. Without money, it is impossible for that army to function, let alone fight, let alone win.

If there is no food and grass alone, what can you fight? I haven't traveled a few miles yet, and everyone is hungry, so why don't you go to eat soil?

Jia Xu doesn't believe that other people don't understand such a simple road, but unfortunately, those who often understand this truth don't care about these things.

In the territory now, there are generals, soldiers, and money, these are all factors that make Jia Xu see the future.

Inside the camp, there were running soldiers, running around the camp in circles and circles. The runners were rotated, and each person had a certain amount of distance to run every day, not only on the flat ground in the camp, but also sometimes pulled into the mountains to practice, and marched in the mountainous woodlands and other terrain.

Every soldier, now Jia Xu looked over, his complexion was that kind of bronz, and his face was extremely dark. Because of a lot of training outside, under the long-term exposure to the sun, no soldier's complexion can still show that kind of whiteness. Gao Shun is the same, if he takes off the armor on his body and changes into a soldier's clothes, he will also look like a small soldier, so that people can't recognize him as the main general.

Jia Xu touched his face and smiled bitterly, even he was a lot darker now than before. Sometimes, when there is a problem in the territory, he needs to go to the scene to deal with it, and he has a lot of tan. This is not the main reason, but the more important reason is that the one he thought was a barbarian, but later found out that he was a yellow turban thief who hid very deeply, and his heart was gloomy.

When he was still in the territory, he dragged him to run! It is not a bad thing to practice a practice, in case you are really attacked, fail, lose, and run away on two legs.

When Jia Xu heard this, he couldn't help but burst out foul language, when I was requisitioned by you, the knife was put on my neck, and now I am engaged in politics in the territory, and you still tell me that my life is still in danger? What's the deal with that very serious tone? What's going on with the enthusiastic smiling face at that time, have you, the lord, really thought about this serious problem very seriously?

Besides, I, Jia Wenhe, never run when the soldiers are in the city! If I can't escape, I can save myself. Then again, if he can run again, no one will resist and fight, and he won't be able to escape!

Since being tortured for a period of time, life is better than death to the stage where he feels that he is still in pain, Jia Xu found that he is getting stronger and stronger, the amount of food has become larger, and at the same time, he is not happy without meat. It was only then that Jia Xu knew what Yunting, the lord, wanted to do, he understood, he understood everything.

When the time comes to allocate military funds again, he won't worry about it, and with a big stroke of the pen, I'll give it!

After experiencing it himself, Jia Xu knew how powerful these soldiers were, and how tenacious their wills and bodies were. They ran one or two times as far as him, and at the same time marched in the mountains and mountains, which was much more laborious than flat land, and sometimes there were unpredictable dangers, and a small number of soldiers broke their legs as soon as they lay down. As for the one who was bitten by the snake, he was not saved and died on the spot.

In addition to this ordinary training, there is also weight-bearing training, carrying dozens of pounds of sand on your back, and marching rapidly in the mountains. This is even more terrifying, the weight of dozens of catties, if it is on flat ground, it is enough to choke, let alone on the mountain.

The most stringent is the trapping camp trained by Gao Shun, and the kind of rapid march with a load just now is also one of the necessary training for the trapped camp soldiers. Every soldier trapped in the camp has to be trained like this every three or five days, and those who fail to pass the training have only one chance, and then pass and decisively brush them off.

At the beginning, some of the soldiers in Gao Shun's trap camp were brushed down in this way, and they were immediately snatched away by those teams. Those who are eliminated from the trapped camp, all of them are treasures, and the soldiers in the trapped camp can't be wanted, and there are still some eliminated ones.

From this point, it can also be seen how powerful the soldiers in the camp are, the army is the most pragmatic place, everything is to win the battle, and survive is the premise of preparation, no one will joke with their lives, so they respect the strong more.

Not to mention the training of the trapped camp soldiers, the training of ordinary soldiers is also as strict except for the training without weights and some training unique to the trapped camp.

Ordinary people can't do it, and people who are not ordinary have nothing to eat, so they have to be tired and thin. It was precisely because of running and knowing these pains that Jia Xu was not continued to care about in the end.

It's all money, and the money spent is inevitable, so he can only open up sources and reduce expenditure, and then work hard to create wealth for the territory.

The other soldiers, there was a large group of soldiers waving their knives, slashing with long knives in their hands again and again, and the neat and uniform sound of breaking wind could be heard clearly from his position. These soldiers were already sweating, and the back of their close-fitting cloth clothes was soaked to a block, and they continued to wield their knives, sweat accompanied by the long knives again and again.

There were also soldiers stabbing at the scarecrow, with spears in their hands. One shout after another, their movements are mechanical and powerful, and the same movements are always persistent. Thorn thorn, stabbing the scarecrow as if it were a mortal enemy, stabbing out the spear with all his strength.

There are also soldiers, who are practicing archery, and on one side of the camp, there are many arrow targets. They stood at the other end, drew their bowstrings at the target, and shot their arrows.

There was an even more fiery scene of soldiers with weapons in hand fighting each other, fighting each other. Of course, the weapons in their hands could not be real knives and guns, but wooden knives, wooden guns, and leather shields made of wood.

Although the sharp parts of the wooden knives and guns have been treated, there is no longer a danger of injuring people's lives, but if they are stabbed, they are also very deadly. The wooden weapons are stained with some lime, and as long as they hit the opponent, they will immediately leave a very clear mark on his clothes.

Once the lime is left in the lethal part, it means that the soldier is already in a dead state. Even if they are unwilling, the soldiers who died in battle have to withdraw from the battlefield, after all, they have already lost, and it will be even more humiliating if they stay and continue to fight.

Not someone who can't afford to lose!

This kind of confrontation, Jia Xu believes that no matter who sees it, they will praise it, which is refreshing. It has the atmosphere of a real battlefield, but at the same time does not hurt the lives of soldiers, and it also creates a confrontational situation.

The soldier who loses wants to win back, and the soldier who wins wants to keep the victory, then he can only work harder to not be defeated. This kind of motivation couldn't be more ingenious, plus the team that wins the training every day, and the corresponding rewards, which stimulates everyone's enthusiasm even more.

How can the army not be strong in such training? If you continue to practice in this way, and then pull it out to fight in the field from time to time, what you will eventually achieve will only be a strong army in a hundred battles.

Here in Liangzhou, what is lacking will not be the enemy, as long as you are willing, where the Qiang tribe is located, it is a training ground. Not only can he train troops, but also sweep away the Qiang tribes, he can also bring a good income, which is also a point that Jia Xu cares about very much.

Anyway, the military and politics have never been separated. Politics needs the strength of the military to show its strength and suppress all resistance and voices when necessary. The military also needs politics to provide everything they need, and the two are inextricably linked.

The current investment is necessary, and Jia Xu knows this very well. Otherwise, no matter how much wealth you have, you can't keep it, it's just a wedding dress for others.

On that side, Gao Shun had already finished running, explained a few words to the deputy general, and ran towards Jia Xu's location.
