Due to his weak strength, in order to protect himself, Fan Xiwen decided to activate the defense system. The so-called defense system is the use of ready-made materials, with Wang Fan and Wang Si as the design leaders, set traps around Chu Zhai, ring and ring in, step by step killing, although it can not kill people (nonsense, traps are basically made of wood, of course they can't die), but they can play the best warning role.

The traps were only dug two to three times a day, and after more than half a month of hard work, a large trap array had already formed in the north of Chuzhai. After getting more than 20 people from Yanjia Village to join, Fan Xiwen decided to temporarily stop laying traps to the north, and instead invested all the manpower he could mobilize to start arranging a defense system in depth, developing to the east, west, and south to erect a solid barrier for Chuzhai.

In addition, Fan Xiwen saw that the five children in the village usually had nothing to do except pick some wild vegetables with their mother, so he proposed a growth plan. In the morning, the children also participate in morning training, and then squeeze out an hour to learn knowledge during breakfast and lunch, which is taken over by Fan Xiwen himself. The training degree of children's morning training is only a quarter of that of adults, and the archery and knife skills are only halved. The knowledge studied includes military science (battle formations, the art of war, typical battles) and literature (simple and common modern writing, political science, military code language), all of which are completed by Fan Xiwen. For these children, Fan Xiwen intends to train them into a group of instructors, and then prepare for the establishment of a military academy when the population is raised in the future, and these five children will be the backbone instructors of the military academy, providing a large number of military elites for the various armies in Chuzhai. The stakes are very high, and Fan Xiwen must personally inquire about it, so that Fan Xiwen can rest assured. In addition, according to the development model of Chuzhai, Fan Xiwen's position as the leader is unshakable, but the military and the government are not separated, and only with military power can the stability of the regime be guaranteed.

In order to prevent the division of Chu Zhai, in the future, Chu Zhai's military power must be divided into twelve or thirteen shares, and Fan Xiwen and the government he represents can only hold two shares at most. After all, they all crossed over, everyone knows the important position of military power, and no one can hand over their safety to others. In this way, it is difficult to guarantee the supremacy of Fan Xiwen and the government he represents. A lord without supreme authority cannot control the overall situation, and a government without authority cannot win over the localities and achieve centralized power. What Fan Xiwen wants to do is to make good achievements in military and political affairs, the regime has been firmly grasped by himself, and he only needs to make some achievements in the military circles, and the best way to do this is to build a military academy. In later generations, Chiang Kai-shek, as the principal of the Whampoa Military Academy, knew the prestige he established in the army. As the principal of the military academy, Fan Xiwen has mastered most of the middle and lower-level officers in the whole army, and Fan Xiwen can increase his prestige in the army without letting the brothers turn against him, so why not?

In April, the peach blossoms are exhausted, and the mountains are deep and the grass is green.

The Han family parted and fled here.

The beacon fire wolf smoke rolls out, and the clouds on the horizon change.

Gather and disperse the hearts of the world, and then all the people will be attached.

Looking at the rows of neat houses in front of him and the forty soldiers on the training ground in front of the houses, Fan Xiwen finally had a hint of joy, it was time to make contributions. After receiving five young men from Yanjia Village, Fan Xiwen ordered Liu Ke to lead people down the mountain to collect the displaced people, so that hundreds of new people were added to Chuzhai and the army was expanded to forty. At this time, Fan Xiwen couldn't wait, he needed a victory to add fresh blood to his army, that is, the legendary war to nourish war, and use war to test the combat effectiveness of the army.

On 7 April, Fan Xiwen ignored everyone's opposition and ordered Liu Ke and Fan Fengming to take 10 soldiers down the mountain to begin the last training for the soldiers. "With Liu Ke as the commander of the left guard, Fan Fengming as the commander of the right guard, each leading ten pawns to form a vanguard army, a strong army, and only my Chu army." At this moment, Fan Xiwen is full of righteousness, and he is already in power with a wave of his hand, who else can I do in the world.

"Yes." Liu Ke and Fan Fengming responded at the same time, and it was their performance time next. "This time I went down the mountain, my request is to show my prestige in a battle and kill the yellow turban gall." It was Fan Fengming who spoke, and Liu Ke was cool and didn't speak. I don't know why Liu Ke hasn't spoken recently, and the person has obviously become colder, and no one wants to say the reason, and everyone is helpless against him.

"The first battle shows prestige, and the yellow turban gall is broken." The soldiers of the left and right guards were obviously fanatical and warlike people, Fan Fengming's words easily made the morale suddenly high, and this performance made everyone nod with satisfaction, and the long-term training was not vegetarian.

After shouting four or five times in a row, Liu Ke set off with a loud roar, the long sword in his hand was unsheathed, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at the blue sky, a little majestic. Actually, Liu Ke didn't like Fan Fengming to drag out time, so he ordered the troops to set off, and by the way, why not? Liu Ke's heart has actually been thinking about how to be handsome, he didn't speak at first just to be handsome, but then it wasn't, of course this is another story, let's not mention it for the time being. The left and right guards are combined, a total of twenty-two people, two knives, six long knives, fourteen spears, and two other twenty soldiers have three javelins. To this end, Liu Ke and Fan Fengming formulated a tactic that mainly focused on night raids and supplemented by guerrilla warfare.
