This area in the east of Huangsha County was built from the beginning of the city's construction to provide a military camp for the daily training and residence of the city guards.

Thanks to the long-term strategy of the Liang Kingdom back then, this military camp was built extremely strong and durable from the beginning, all of which were rows of solid stone houses, and there was no deduction of materials, so even if the materials issued by the imperial court to Huangsha County in recent years were less and less, and even not enough to be used for occasional repairs to important parts such as the military camp and the city wall, it also had little impact on the entire camp building, plus the stone house itself has the characteristics of warm in winter and cool in summer, which is suitable for the climate on the edge of the desert in Huangsha County。

Because of Gu Xuan's previous sincere mobilization declaration, the number of Rakshasa people who came to enlist later reached more than 300, plus some of the people of Liangguo in the original city also came to enlist in the army, and the number of soldiers in the city has quickly reached more than 500 people, if it is only about guarding the entire city, it is actually almost enough.

After all, the four walls of Huangsha County were originally built extremely high, and thick enough, originally built in full accordance with the specifications of the border military fortress, as long as the soldiers rely on the terrain, in the absence of targeted siege equipment, it is simply peace of mind, before it was afraid that because of the lack of manpower, it was necessary to be joined by the outside, resulting in a point being broken, after all, no one can guarantee that there is no enemy spy in the city, once the riot can not be solved in a short period of time, a city gate is lost, then the remaining three sides are the back of the enemy, and the city will be broken at that time。

Fortunately, the first wave of the horse bandits' tentative offensive had been resisted by Gu Xuan by relying on his own ability, and at the same time, it had also bought a lot of time for Huangsha County.

Although the armor and weapons for the soldiers in the city are not complete for the time being, and these people are all newcomers, without the slightest training, they are still useless in a short time, but everything is difficult at the beginning, as long as you successfully take the first step, the rest of the things will become a matter of course.

After registering and making sure that no one had registered, the original soldiers hurriedly brought people to the barracks without delaying time at all.

Gu Xuan and the others stood on the stone platform in the center of the military camp, looking at the newly promoted soldiers who were huddled together, their expressions were extremely gratified.

Whether it was because he had moved these people with his sincere speech before, or they were simply driven and attracted by the welfare benefits issued by the county government, Huangsha County now has its own strength.

In such a place where wolves are looking around, having minions that are sharp enough to keep enemies out is a thing to be thankful for.

Zhu Dachun on the high platform, seeing this situation, is also happy, since the Youzhou army withdrew from the city before, he is actually more frightened than the other people in the city, because he clearly knows that the real combat effectiveness of these militiamen under his command, it seems that there are many people, but if he has not really been on the battlefield, if he has no combat experience, it is completely different.

The vast majority of recruits, when they go to the battlefield for the first time, will lose their square inches completely as soon as they meet because of the fear in their hearts, and even run around and disrupt the formation, so he will not hesitate to go to the barracks in person to ask for people, but also let his subordinates get the opportunity to practice with the imperial court garrison, but that is far from enough, he is very afraid that because after a failure, the people of Huangsha County will completely become fish and meat on the sticky board, and let others cut the meat and humiliate them, so that I am afraid that it will not take a few times, and Huangsha County will really be completely destroyed。

So as soon as Gu Xuan and others came here, and killed Xu Sanjin on the street resolutely, and expressed his determination to the people in the city, he was actively approached to the door, and almost without hesitation, he threw himself into his command and served for him, because he saw hope from this little prince, of course, he was more afraid of the heavy responsibility, he was a soldier, not a general, he couldn't bear this kind of responsibility gathered by the people's expectations, he could play his role under the command of others, but he could never become a leader, the old man was precisely because he understood this deeply, and the other party's subsequent actions did not disappoint him, so after that, he served the county government more wholeheartedly.

Now I see a large group of people under the pressure below, in the eyes of the old man, there are faint tears flashing, five hundred, what kind of concept is this, that is five times the previous strength, more than 20 people on one side of the four city walls and more than 100 people on the other side, that is a completely different concept, even if these people are just recruits, as long as they don't panic when the time comes, throw stones down, the enemy will not be able to come up.

It can be said that as long as Huangsha County does not face a large-scale attack by the enemy, it can already guarantee that it will have no worries.

Gu Xuan looked at the crowd of people below with anticipation on their faces, touched the re-put on blindfold, and said to Lu Yi and the old man Zhu Dachun who were standing next to him: " Now it's just a test of the waters, these Rakshasa clans, including the others who came this time, because of fear halfway, or can't endure hardship, one after another, should quit a lot of people, but this doesn't hurt, as long as the armor is sufficient in the future, properly trained, we can open the city gates, take this as the only place to trade, restart the market, collect taxes, accumulate strength, recruit troops again, and we are not afraid that no one will apply, what we need to do now is to make this heritage as soon as possible into an unstoppable momentum, which depends on the efforts of all of us。 ”

When Lu Yi heard this, he sincerely admired: "The prince's plan is really a trick, and the minister is convinced, if it is not for the requisition of these Rakshasa clans, I am afraid that now we will have to worry about the soldiers." ”

Gu Xuan crossed his waist, looked at the swarthy crowd below, shook his head lightly and said: "This is far from enough, in the future, let the later merchants take care of the bazaar, and let the county government actually control it, we want to let the people of Huangsha County form the first army, and we will also improve the salary and silver treatment, only in this way, Huangsha County will really be in everyone's hands! Everyone will sincerely work together in one direction, unite as one, and be unstoppable!"

When Zhu Dachun heard this, he immediately admired it even more, and hugged his fists and said: "What the prince said is very true, in fact, there are still many young and middle-aged people who are still waiting and watching, and have not chosen to join, some are afraid of going to the battlefield, some are to take care of the family's industry, and some are purely to see the situation. ”

This is the truth, there are people who don't like military life by nature, and there are people who are afraid of going to the battlefield because of fear, not everyone can be moved by Gu Xuan's words, and they sign up for the army as soon as their minds are hot, and there are many more people who will choose to live their previous stable life, and it is impossible to say which one is better, after all, the salary that can be issued in Huangsha County now is actually not much, and Gu Xuan himself does not have enough money on hand for the time being.

If you can really let all the young and middle-aged people in the entire county join the army, then at least you can gather thousands of people, and at that time, you can really have the power to fight a foreign war, after all, the elite troops that a medium-sized tribe of the Rakshasa clan can use are only thousands, and the equipment is far from being sophisticated.

Only then can we really start to implement the next set of plans.

Snowballs are always getting bigger and bigger, and it's rare to let a plate of loose sand turn into a snowball at the beginning.

Without further ado, Gu Xuan did not continue to chat with Zhu Dachun and Lu Yi, but stood up directly, walked to the front of the stage, looked at the crowd below, and said loudly: "Everyone, from today onwards, you will be the soldiers of my Liang Kingdom! I know that some of you may not have thought it through, haven't really understood what it means to join the army, and don't even know what to do, but that's okay, we'll teach you slowly in the future, and you also have a chance to regret it, and that's okay. ”

"What I want to tell you is that if you choose to stay, then in the future, you will become a sword in my Liang country, a knife that the enemy will be afraid of when he sees it! What you have to do is to protect the land under our feet! The people in the city, the safety of your family depends on you! What you have to do is to sharpen and train yourself every day, and when you stand at the head of the city in the future, not only must you not be afraid, but you must also let the enemy be afraid when they see it, and once you make a move, you will let those thieves outside no longer dare to attack and harass us!

The people below listened carefully one by one, but Gu Xuan's last question made them a little confused, so they just kept silent, but the hundred or so people who had been following Zhu Lao were crowded in the crowd, but they shouted in unison: "Understood!"

The sound spread in all directions, echoing endlessly in the school martial arts field, and the newcomers who had just joined looked at each other and were a little stunned.

Gu Xuan stomped his feet, puffed up his middle breath, and shouted loudly again: "Understood?"

This time, among the newcomers, many people reacted and shouted together: "Understood!"

It's just that most of these people's voices are sparse, and many people have finished shouting at the top of their voices, and the people next to them are still covering their mouths and snickering, not in shape.

Seeing this, Gu Xuan suddenly pulled out the freshly punched saber at his waist, the blade was sharp, and it was so bright that people's backs were cold, and the people below were much more honest all of a sudden.

He held the knife, pointed it to the sky, and shouted: "Have you fucking not eaten? One by one, humming and chirping like old ladies, Lao Tzu asked you again at the end, do you understand?"

Only then did the five hundred people below finally shout in unison: "Understood!"

After shouting along with everyone this time, there was suddenly a sense of collectivity in everyone's hearts, that sense of fulfillment, which made them subconsciously have a sense of belonging to this military camp, and even the formation of standing subconsciously became more neat.

Lu Yi and Zhu Dachun were standing behind, and when they saw this scene, they glanced at each other, and they both nodded in satisfaction.

At this time, Gu Xuan suddenly turned sideways and tilted his head back, Zhu Dachun immediately understood, hurriedly stepped forward, and stood beside Gu Xuan, but he was still a little behind.

Gu Xuan put the knife into the sheath, stretched out his hand and introduced to the people below: "He, some of you may not know each other, I will introduce to you here, this is Zhu Lao, but, this is my name, in the future, you will call him instructor! He is your heaven, if you are a knife, then he is here to sharpen the knife! In the future, you will have to do whatever he asks you to do! If you are not satisfied, you can come to the county government office to find me at any time, but I will tell you in advance, it is useless to look for me, because in the end I will still lose it to him!" Well, I won't say more, and let Zhu Lao tell you about the rest!"

Zhu Dachun hurriedly bowed to the side, hugged his fists and said, "Thank you, Lord Wang!"

This is to let the soldiers below understand who is really in charge here, Gu Xuan accepted this calmly, and then held the knife, retreated to the back, and stood with Lu Yi.

Zhu Dachun dragged the sick leg, walked with a limp, and when he arrived at the stage, he tried to straighten his waist, lowered his head, looked at the pair of eyes below that were still a little confused, cleared his throat, raised his head, and began to lecture loudly to the bottom.

He is already extremely famous in Huangsha County, and there are really few people who don't know him, especially the hundred or so soldiers who have been trained by him for a long time to take the lead, coupled with Gu Xuan's words just now, so that everyone else can listen to it seriously and dare not slack off in the slightest.

"First of all, the old man is a cripple. Zhu Dachun stretched out his hand and pointed to his sick leg first, and then said proudly, "This is the military merit medal that the old man won when he was in the Youzhou Army! ”

When the newcomers heard this, they couldn't help grinning, but they just couldn't help laughing.

The relationship between the two sides was instantly pulled in because of a joke, Zhu Dachun then covered his legs like a baby, and laughed at the newcomers below: "But you want to have this opportunity, anyway, this means that the old man will not go to the battlefield with you at that time, so as not to be left behind to show jokes to the prince!"

As soon as they mentioned that they were going to fight on the battlefield, the eyes of the newcomers below suddenly showed a look of retreat, and some even shrank up.

When Zhu Dachun saw it, he just said calmly: "It seems that some of you are already afraid?" But don't laugh at him, this is normal, everyone is afraid of death, when the old man joined the army, he thought he would not be afraid, but when he went to the battlefield for the first time, he saw that those people on the opposite side rushed over and almost peed his pants. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, someone below suddenly laughed loudly: "Instructor, I'm afraid it's not 'almost'." ”

This time, not only did it instantly dilute everyone's nervousness, but the audience was quiet for a while, and then burst into laughter.

Zhu Dachun just said lightly: "The kid who spoke just now, Lao Tzu remembers you, and the training volume will increase tenfold in the next three days!"

The people below instantly fell silent again, and many of them looked at the person who spoke gloatingly.

This person was one of the first batch of soldiers raised by Zhu Dachun as a son before, and speaking at this time was naturally arranged by Lu Yi and others, in order to let others quickly integrate into the collective.

Zhu Dachun put his hands behind his back and continued to the people below: "This is the first lesson that the old man gave you, obey the order, when Lao Tzu speaks, whoever dares to make a voice at the bottom will increase the amount of training for Lao Tzu tenfold!

"This is the army, do you understand? You don't need to do anything else, what you have to do is to obey orders!" Zhu Dachun first stretched out his finger and pointed at himself, and then pointed to Gu Xuandao behind, "Obey the orders of Lao Tzu and the prince, one day Lao Tzu just came out of the toilet and asked you to come over and kiss your ass, you have to pinch your nose too!"

Seeing that the newcomers were a little nervous, Zhu Dachun hurriedly laughed again: "Of course, the old man doesn't have that bad taste, you guys' faces are not much cleaner than the old man's buttocks." ”

Gu Xuan stood behind, looking at Zhu Dachun in front of him, while making vulgar jokes, relaxed and relaxed, he narrowed the distance with these people in a few clicks, and immediately praised Lu Yi: "Second brother said, there is a specialization in the art industry, and it is true, this kind of thing is still what Zhu Lao is good at, just what I said just now, I am not comfortable myself." ”

"Hahaha. Lu Yi stroked his palms and laughed, "Lord, the minister looks at it, there are many people, they are all here for what the prince said before." ”

Gu Xuan just smiled bitterly and waved his hand at this, and did not take this stubble.

Further ahead, after Zhu Dachun made a few jokes with the soldiers below, he cut to the point, his expression suddenly calmed down, and his tone became serious.

"The old man was poor when he was a child, he didn't study for a few years, he didn't know a few big words, and you rough people, even if he was a lame donkey with a broken wear, it was just okay, so the old man didn't have any big reason to tell you, anyway, he could teach you a word, usually sweat more, and you can shed less blood after going to the battlefield, as long as you follow Lao Tzu's method, you won't even be seriously injured at that time, but if you are usually lazy, and there will be retribution in the future, don't blame others, do you understand!"

The people below were in good spirits this time, and they all yelled: "Understood!"

The three people on the high platform of the school martial arts field finally nodded with satisfaction together, these recruits are only now a little bit of a look, and the next thing is to make them real soldiers through training.
