Chapter 28 Strategies for Military Training

In the big tent, Zhang Xiu was lying in ambush, constantly carving on the bamboo slips in his hands, and Zhang Ji, Hu Zhen and Hu Che'er were waiting next to him.

But Zhang Xiu heard the result of Zhang Ji's half-day army, but it was not optimistic, Hu Zhen was only a guard at the gate of Chang'an City, and he did not command any army, and the quality of those county soldiers was not high, so Hu Zhen had no concept of elite soldiers, and he was against the Qiang people for three months, and he didn't feel that the Qiang people had any discipline at all, just more courageous than the Han army, so he didn't realize that the army he led was actually not a strong army.

Although Huangfu Song and Zhang Xiu knew that the soldiers they led were not very good, they really did not have time to train the soldiers, and now the remaining 30,000 soldiers are okay, and they have experienced a lot of baptism of war, which is much stronger than when they first arrived in Guanzhong. But Zhang Ji is different, he has been with Dong Zhuo for several years, and the Qiang people in Xiping have rebelled several times, so he has naturally seen the elite of the Han Dynasty, whether it is the army under Dong Zhuo or the northern army of the Suwei Jing Division, which is several times stronger than the army he is leading now, so he can see at a glance that although this army has experienced wars, it can only be called stronger than ordinary soldiers, far from reaching the elite standard.

But what Zhang Xiu wanted was not only the courage of this army, but also discipline, he knew that the elite in the hands of the princes of the late Han Dynasty was more about eliminating an elite of thousands of people from an army of tens of thousands of people, and then retraining it to become an ace army. Like in the original history, Liu Bei's white-eared elite soldiers were from the original Xuzhou Shanyue soldiers who followed Liu Bei to the east and west, fought for a long time, and then trained to form an army through Chen Zhi; Cao Cao's tiger and leopard cavalry was selected from the old Qingzhou soldiers, supplemented by good horses and high-quality weapons, and went to Saiwai to fight Karasuma for several years before becoming an army; Gao Shun's trapping camp was originally a border army in the hands of Ding Yuan, and he successively followed Ding Yuan and Lu Bu to the east and west for several years, and Gao Shun, the world's first military training master, was trained to take shape; The same is true of Sun Quan's trouble-relieving army.

But what Zhang Xiu needs now is not to train such troops, no matter how strong the elite troops are, they can't defeat thousands of troops, what he wants is a strong army like Dong Zhuo's Xiliang Iron Cavalry that shocked the princes of the Kwantung in the future, and the Qingzhou soldiers, the old foundation of Cao Cao. Such soldiers can be trained, and after training, they can become an army after going through the flames of war. And now the troops in Zhang Xiu's hands have gone through the war, and the difference is that someone will come to train them, and this task Zhang Xiu will hand it over to Zhang Ji and Hu Zhen.

According to the information obtained by Zhang Ji's investigation, this army was originally the elite of the Northern Army of the Beijing Division, and Emperor Ling asked Huangfu Song to bring it to fight the Yellow Turban. Huang Fu Song saw that the Yellow Turban was powerful, and although the troops in his hands were fine, they were too far away from the Yellow Turban, so they did not refuse all the comers, and the supply of grain and grass at that time was not worried, and Huang Fu Song was even more unscrupulous in recruiting troops.

Later, the Yellow Turban was destroyed, but the troops were several times more than before they set out for the battle, and Emperor Ling also had a headache. At this time, Beigong Boyu rebelled, and Emperor Ling directly asked the original elite of the Northern Army under Huangfu Song to return to the Northern Army, and then cut some redundant troops, and then let Huangfu Song lead 50,000 people to Guanzhong. Therefore, these private armies that were originally just homeless people and families did not want to form this army, with which the army and the Qiang people could fight for three months without being defeated, which should be called a big miracle, which can also show that Huangfu Song, a famous general in the late Han Dynasty, was not in vain.

And now the bamboo slips carved by Zhang Xiu are the method of military training. Zhang Xiu carved and wrote for an afternoon, and it was not completed until the evening, and handed over the three bamboo slips to Zhang Ji, saying: "When my uncle and Wencai are training, these three methods should be added to your training methods." ”

Zhang Ji opened the bamboo slip and looked at it carefully, Hu Zhen also got together, but Hu Che'er stood aside with his eyes wide.

After taking a closer look, Zhang Ji asked: "Bo Yuan, this running around the city is to train the physical strength of the soldiers, but why should the whole army system be implemented, if one person can't complete it on time, he will be punished with the running army, so it is a bit unfair." ”

Zhang Xiu heard it and said: "What the soldiers want is not only personal martial arts, but also unity. The sword on the battlefield has no eyes, and the slightest negligence will kill you, if there are trustworthy comrades on the left and right of the back, you can move forward bravely, so the army is extraordinary. And even if the martial arts in the army are high and powerful, ten Qiang generals surrounded me that day, if it wasn't for Wencai to rush to separate the two Qiang generals, I'm afraid I won't be able to talk to my uncle here now, this method is not only to train the physical strength of the soldiers, but also to train their unity. ”

Zhang Ji nodded when he heard this, but Hu Zhen looked shy. Zhang Xiu saw it and said to Zhang Ji: "If any soldier is not convinced, my uncle can tell the soldier about this matter, but this matter was born in front of thousands of soldiers in the hall that day, so they can't help but be unconvinced." ”

Zhang Ji heard it and said with a smile: "Bo Yuan is a good scheming. ”

When he looked at the second strategy, Zhang Ji said strangely: "Hey, who is Bo Yuan's habit in this battle formation, but it is quite methodical. ”

Zhang Xiu smiled and said, "But Bo Yuan has nothing to do to figure it out for himself." In fact, the battle formation that Zhang Ji said in his mouth was the battle formation of the Yue family army led by Yue Fei of the Southern Song Dynasty that Zhang Xiu saw on the Internet before the crossing. Because of the lack of horses, the vast majority of the troops of the Song Dynasty are foot soldiers, so they pay more attention to the battle formation than the previous dynasties, it can be said that the Song Dynasty is the ancient Chinese infantry army battle formation to the peak, and Yue Fei is a famous general of the Song Dynasty, Fu Southern Song Dynasty Yu general, its army battle formation is naturally powerful, fortunately Zhang Xiu has a good memory, and these battle formations are written out in their original form.

Zhang Ji heard it and praised: "I didn't expect Bo Yuan to have this talent." Zhang Xiu was a little embarrassed.

Zhang Ji looked at the last strategy, but let the soldiers divide into two teams each time, and then use a wooden stick coated with white powder to imitate the battle between the two armies. The winner gets a prize, whether it's meat or wine, and the sparring takes place at least once a month.

When Zhang Ji first saw such a novel method, he was very curious, but after careful consideration, he felt that this method could arouse the hearts of the soldiers to win, but it could only be implemented if the training of the soldiers and soldiers had a certain effect.

After reading it, Zhang Ji praised: "I am very relieved to my uncle, I didn't expect Bo Yuan to have such a wonderful idea in addition to his strong martial arts, but I have fulfilled the trust of my eldest brother." And Hu Zhen next to him also looked admiring.

Zhang Xiu's descendants thought about it, but he scratched his head embarrassedly, afraid that the two would continue to entangle, so he said to Hu Che'er: "Hu Che'er, follow me into the city early tomorrow morning, I have something to do with you." ”

Hu Che'er said strangely: "With me? ”

Zhang Xiu nodded, and Zhang Ji next to him was a little blamed: "You are a general no matter how you say it now" (Zhang Wen later ordered someone to pass on the order, and the generals of the unified army were generals, but a fake festival was added in front), but tomorrow is the time for your army to go out, and it is not good to miss the time." ”

Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Uncle, don't worry, now I will go to rest, and I will enter the city with Hu Che'er early tomorrow morning." ”

Zhang Ji glared at Zhang Xiu angrily and said, "You have a good rest." After speaking, he went out with Hu Zhen and Hu Che'er.

Zhang Xiu nodded naturally.
