Chapter 42: Training

On the second day, as soon as it was dawn, drums rang out in the barracks.

The sound of the drums was like thunder, loud and rhythmic, waking up the sleeping soldiers, and some even jumped out of the quilt.

"Get up! Get up! ”

Zhao Tuo first patted the nearby Shijian, and then roared loudly, urging everyone to get up quickly.

Shiruma reacted the fastest, and one rolled over and jumped up, kicking the black buttocks that were wrapped in zongzi next to him.

The black buttocks screamed, and the startled Xiaobai also shouted.

There was a burst of chickens and dogs jumping in the camp tent, but fortunately, Zhao Tuo was quite prestigious during this time, and Zhu and Xi Qigu had also served on the battlefield, and they were sensitive to the sound of drums and helped Zhao Tuo call people.

Soon the Gengshi people put on their armor and stood in a row outside the camp tent with their weapons.

One drum to organize the army, two drums to practice Chen, three drums to eat, four drums to do strictly, five drums to do. Listen to the drums and fold, then raise the flag.

These are the words that General Lu Bai repeatedly instructed the two tun chiefs and the chief yesterday, which was firmly remembered by Zhao Tuo.

But it's a pity that although there are veterans like Zhu Zhu who have been on the battlefield in this batch of soldiers, most of them are new soldiers who have not been trained by the golden drum, and they are chaotic for a while, and there are reprimands from the tun chief and even the chief everywhere.

Lu Bai learned from yesterday's experience, and without issuing complicated orders, he yelled for the hundred people under his command to put on armor and stand in front of the tent, and the process was a little faster than the other hundred people.

He inspected all the way, and saw that Gengshi and the others were already standing in front of the camp in full dress, and couldn't help but nod with satisfaction, it seemed that it was a very wise decision for him to promote that Zhao Tuo to the chief.

You must know that although General Lu Bai is now holding the position of a hundred generals, it is because the elite troops have long been recruited into the generals' army, and there is a lack of middle and lower-level military officials in the new barracks, so he will be promoted among the dwarves and appointed as a hundred generals.

General Lu Bai was originally just a tun chief, but he was suddenly promoted to a hundred generals in the new barracks, he could only manage fifty people, but he suddenly had to manage a hundred people, and the doubling of the number made this big boss and rough management in a hurry.

And not only him, such a situation was very common in the boot camps.

The original tun commander became a hundred generals, the chief became a tun chief, and a small soldier like Zhu became a chief, coupled with the sudden conscription, the lack of sufficient training time and running-in, which is also the reason why the new battalion is chaotic when it encounters a situation.

But fortunately, it was not as sudden as yesterday's general patrolling the camp, and today's assembly had enough time to let these lower-level military officials straighten out.

Soon, under the command of military officials at all levels, a column of Leshwu entered the school field in a slightly orderly manner.

By the time General Li Xin entered the camp, although the entire recruit camp was not yet neatly organized, it was also lined up on the school ground, making Li Xin nod slightly.

It doesn't seem to be rotten to the end.

Next, there is the training of military management.

Li Xin's training methods are not as radical as his personality, but seem to be decent.

The first step is to start with the practice queue.

In later generations, the traversers in some novels often held a certain sense of superiority, believing that by traveling back to ancient times, they could rely on basic operations such as standing in a military posture, walking in a queue, advancing and retreating, turning left and right, and training a modern and strong army to crush the ancients.

It is undeniable that many armies in ancient times, especially the peasant army, were lax in discipline, and they would only rush in a swarm of battles, like bandits and bandits, with no formation to speak of.

However, in the real regular army, training is only the most basic thing, and there are many various operations, and many of the training skills of later generations are inherited from the ancestors of Yu Ze.

For example, in the oath of King Wu of Zhou, it was said that "Ergo, Bilgan, and Liermao" were said, which was a very strict queue requirement.

and then in the "Sima Law", "set up the ranks, set the ranks, and are vertically and horizontally".

There is also Sun Wuzi to test female soldiers for King Wu, and after killing the two beauties, all the women knelt up left and right, and they all had the rules and ropes, and they didn't dare to speak out.

Therefore, Li Xin's first move in training was to require each battalion to practice the method of lining up first.

Let each Shiwu separate, and keep training the basics of forward, backward, stop, stand up, squat, etc.

After practicing these, of course, there are more difficult left and right turns.

In later generations, there are still many people who can't distinguish between left and right turns, not to mention the rough and contemptible men at the end of the Warring States Period, once they enter the left and right turn links, even if many people have already trained some basics in the guards, but they are still dizzy at this time.

But fortunately, the training does not require the soldiers to be proficient in the left and right, they only need to look at the small flag held by the commander in front of them and follow the commander forward. In wartime, the minions only need to follow their commanders.

In this case, it is required that the chief has a high degree of discernment. But unfortunately, many new directors can't do this, and even they can't tell the difference between left and right.

It was obviously a left turn, but the commander rushed to the right with his soldiers. It just happened to collide with another team that should have turned right, but rushed to the left.

The sound of whipping and scolding kept ringing.

Seeing the tragic appearance of a chief next to him being beaten ten times on the spot, Zhu Xin wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with palpitations, and said happily: "Fortunately, he became the chief, if it were me...... Hiss ......"

As Zhu said, Zhao Tuo held a small flag and led nine people behind him, turning left and right very quickly according to the order, and there was never a mistake, not to mention Tun Chang Liang Guang, even General Lu Bai came to praise Zhao Tuo many times.

"It's okay to turn left and right, but fortunately, there is no requirement from above, and you are not allowed to work with the same hands and feet."

Zhao Tuo was calm on his face, but he was very happy in his heart. You must know that the two brothers of his Gengshiri, the stones, and even the black buttocks are all walking on crutches, and if you want to correct them in a short time, that is the real difficulty.

As they practiced day after day, so did the recruits throughout the barracks.

Shiwu has learned, and it is a hundred people. 100 people have learned, and 1,000 people have learned......

Gradually, this army began to command neatly, and there was a hint of feeling.

After a while, the queue was almost trained, and the practice of identifying flags and golden drums began.

The so-called "beat the drum and advance, the low flag will tend, and the gold will retreat." Left and right, golden drums and sit".

As the most important means of conveying information on the battlefield, the golden drum is something that every commander and commander must master.

What made Zhao Tuo dizzy was that the sound of the golden drum was not simply divided into two types, but had to play many tricks.

Like drumming.

If you take a step and hit the drum, it is called a step drum, and it is a slow walk that requires a neat pace.

If you take ten steps and beat the drum, it is called a trend drum, which is to move forward quickly.

If the drum beats non-stop and keeps beating, it is called a wΓΉ drum, and it is time to start running.

Therefore, when you go to the battlefield, you must open your eyes wide, prick up your ears, and listen to the sound of every drum while looking at the direction of the flag, and follow the rhythm of the drum.

"That's why I'm enlisted."

Zhao Tuo's eyes flashed, he gave up the opportunity to enter the school in Xianyang, and insisted on coming to the battlefield to fight, in addition to wanting to take the ride of destroying the Six Kingdoms to improve his title, another reason was to learn the real battlefield warfare skills.

On paper, I finally feel shallow, and I never know that I have to do it.

No matter how much you read military books, you can't learn more from going to real military camps and battlefields.

Zhao Tuo didn't want to become Zhao Kuo when he faced off against others in the future.

He wants to become a real warrior on the battlefield.
