Wei Wushu, who left a strong mark in history, was seriously weakened in the First Battle of Huayang and became the security force of the Great Liang; Although the official position of Captain Liang has not changed, and his official rank has not changed, his power is not as good as before. Those Zhu Wei who entered the military army as officials, some people have already begun to find another way. Others advised the king of Wei to re-recruit and replenish his military soldiers, but they were lost in the sea. Both the King of Wei and the Emperor of Xinling seemed to be more interested in the Qin Army, and the newly appointed general, Jin Confu, as well as the generals who had been promoted from among the military soldiers, were sent to train the civilian army, and no one cared about the military soldiers anymore.

Because Si Mang was in Huayang, he assisted Xinlingjun in commanding the rear army to fight, and was promoted to the rank of captain with merit. At the same time that Zheng Anping was appointed as the commander, Si Mang was also appointed as the lieutenant of Xinling, managing the military of Xinling. When Xinlingjun met with Si Mang, he explained that in addition to maintaining law and order in the territory, he also had to undertake the task of training all the people of the city—this work had never been the duty of the local guards and lieutenants in the Wei state.

Xinlingjun's fiefdom Xinling is a city of 100,000 households, with about 1,000 standing guards or security forces. The lieutenant's job is usually to manage these thousand people, to prevent thieves and thieves in the townships, and to picket lawlessness; When the lord Xinlingjun went out to fight, he was responsible for following Xinlingjun's instructions and recruiting the elite of the city to accompany him on the expedition. But the task given to him by Xinling Jun is to train 100,000 Yi people, no matter how strong or weak, as long as they are Dingkou, they can all fight! This made Si Mang feel a huge challenge. Si Mang asked for another transfer of personnel, but was told that there was already a shortage of personnel within the military and could not be transferred. He could only train the standing army of 1,000 men first, and then train the others after they were proficient in tactics.

When the Battle of Huayang was defeated, Xinlingjun did not participate, and Si Mang did not participate. But the annihilation of the Wei army still dealt him a heavy blow! In his opinion, even if a martial artist can't be ten with one, it's always okay to exchange one for another. However, all 25,000 soldiers were killed, and the total losses of the Qin army were estimated to be less than 10,000. This was completely unexpected.

Si Mang wanted to find someone to understand the situation at that time, but almost all the soldiers who participated in the battle were killed on the battlefield, and the general Mang Mao who commanded the battle and his Mang family did not know what to do. Si Mang faintly felt that the fall of the warriors might be related to some conspiracy of the Mang family, but it lacked basis. The disillusionment of faith in the martial arts gave Si Mang a very heavy blow. Even the training methods are in doubt. Originally, according to his idea, as long as he trained these thousand standing soldiers into half a soldier, and then asked them to train the people of Yi into a three-percent level soldier, it would be enough to defeat the Qin army and complete the task of Xinling Jun. But the current situation is that professional warriors are not the opponents of the Qin army at all, so how can they be trained to defeat the Qin army? No one answered his questions.

When the Qin people asked the Wei army to send troops to help the battle, Si Mang took the initiative to ask to lead the troops there, hoping to find training ideas from within the Qin people. He reported his thoughts to Xinling Jun, who then took the initiative to ask the King of Wei for war, and was willing to send 10,000 troops from his fiefdom to fight on behalf of Wei. King Wei naturally had no objections, and specially asked Wei Xiangwei to prepare all the grain, equipment, and livestock needed by Qi Xinlingjun, so as not to be short. Wei Qi naturally knew that the role that the King of Wei asked for from the Qin people was the baggage team, and he did not participate in the battle, and the so-called grain, livestock, and equipment were originally meant to be released, but now he has to be a favor, and it is all regarded as goodwill to Xinling Jun!

In the marching sequence, the Qin and Han armies were side by side, and the Wei army led by Si Mang had been following at the end of the team. When passing by the barracks of the former army, he also tried to evaluate the differences between the Qin army and the Korean army from the perspective of a professional officer, such as whose camp arrangement was more reasonable, whose stove pit was dug more standardized, and whose camp was more tidy, but he did not find anything special. However, after a few days, he felt a peculiar phenomenon: his troops seemed to be more willing to settle in the original Qin camp than the Han camp. Ahead of the Wei army were the armies of Qin and Han, each with 10,000 men. For the Han and Qin armies, the armies behind would choose to be stationed in the barracks of their own front armies; But when it was the turn of the Wei army, they did not have a queue of two armies marching together, so they could arbitrarily choose the camp of the former Korean army or the Qin army to station. And the Wei army always chose to settle in the camp of the Qin army. At first, he didn't pay attention to why, but later he found out that the side of the Han army was usually more filthy, while the side of the Qin army smelled much better. Upon closer inspection, he found that there was no feces around the Qin army's camp, while there was a large amount of filth piled up around the Han army's camp. So Si Mang found the first advantage of the Qin army: the soldiers dug pits and buried them when they defecated. This is not in Wei Wushu's training syllabus. After discovering this, he also ordered the Wei army to dig a pit first when defecating, and bury it with soil after defecation. There was some resistance at first, but soon everyone realized the benefit: the place to live was less smelly! In less than a month, all Wei troops strictly enforced this discipline.

After entering Yi, Si Mang was still camping independently, the Qin army had "withdrawn", and Han's army had all marched into Yanhe, preparing to seize the city of Yanhe. For a whole month, Si Mang lived in the city where Hu Yang and Gongzi lived. Due to the need to fully defend this settlement, it was impossible for the Wei army to choose its own suitable camp to live in as before, but to arrange garrisons according to the needs of the defensive strategy. Si Mang found that even in the city, the Han army in the west still defecated in the open, while the Qin army in the east basically went to the toilet. This made Si Mang puzzled: Is there a relationship between urine and urine and combat effectiveness? In any case, he still ordered that anyone who defecated or defecated after entering the city should go to the toilet. Orders were carried out.

After the arrival, the temperature dropped significantly, and the rain and snow came one after another. The people who fled to the mountains could not survive and returned one after another. Si Mang asked to be treated well. At first only the old people came back, and slowly the men also returned, and finally the women and children. In about 10 days, the whole area regained its popularity, and the smoke began to curl.

After the Yi people came back, Si Mang found another Qin person's strength: he did not damage things, and he took care of his items. Specifically, it is manifested in the fact that in the settlements where the Qin people were stationed, there were few disputes over damage to property; In Juyi, where the Korean army was stationed, there were many disputes over damage to property. Although these disputes are not big and will not have any impact, they are very energy-intensive. This made Si Mang even more curious about the management and training of the Qin army! He also issued a decree that the property of the city where he lived should not be damaged, and that those who damaged it should pay for it. After the order was issued, he obviously felt that the relationship between the Wei army and the Yi people was much more harmonious. Although their dialects are different, they can communicate more than they can even guess.

Soon after the Han army entered Yanhe, Gongzi brought back a message to Si Mang that the Han army was going to rest in Yanhe for the winter, and let the Wei army also rest in Yanhe. He said that the Qin army had left Shangdang, and if he could firmly occupy Yi and Yanhe, the king of Han would definitely praise him, so he wanted Si Mang to help, and all the materials needed could be taken from Yi, and if he needed a people's husband, he could also be requisitioned in Yi, and Han would definitely admit it. Si Mang looked at this favor, and felt funny: I am garrisoning the army, I want to levy food, materials, and people, what can you do with me! However, he still expressed his gratitude for Childe's friendliness, but stated his difficulties and his determination to overcome them until spring! At first, Si Mang was still a little worried, and the people fled. As the Yi people returned more and more, and the harvest could still support them for the winter, he also decided to stay in the Yi for a long time to spend the winter! Not to mention anything else, it is always good to save tens of thousands of stone grain and hundreds of thousands of stone straw grass.

Just when Si Mang was preparing for the winter, he suddenly reported that Zhao Jun came to help! This made Si Mang nervous. If you go deep into the heavy land, if you are attacked by a large army, your 10,000 poorly trained civilian army will not be enough to stuff your teeth! He sent someone to ask how many reinforcements the Zhao army had and where they were. Before anyone could report back, the watchful person reported that the valley was full of people, as if countless people had come. Si Mang immediately beat the drum and ordered all the Wei troops to assemble, so that the Yi people were also armed and ready to resist. The latter was necessary in hindsight: these militias were naturally not able to deal with large forces, but they were very effective against scattered routs, and many parts of the country escaped the fate of being robbed by the routs.

After the rout entered the city, they were disarmed by Si Mang and concentrated in a few towns. For the routed soldiers who did not obey the order, Si Mang did not embarrass them, and let them pass through the city, but they were not allowed to stay in Yi. As more and more South Korean officers entered the country, so did the number of South Korean troops who remained in the country. Si Mang gathered the officers in the city, denied them contact with the soldiers, and asked them about the battle situation. An officer who had experienced the war introduced the war to Si Mang: the main reason for the defeat was that it was one step late and failed to seize Beishan, and the reason why the Zhao army was able to occupy Beishan in advance was entirely because the Zhao army in the north was cold-resistant, and dared to go up the mountain bare-chested in winter. As for the battle at Yanhe, the officers were secretive, and no one would go into details. However, the people below inquired about some news from the Korean soldiers, and dared to feel that the Korean army did not resist at all and was ready to retreat in advance, but due to panic, the retreat turned into a rout! After Si Mang heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head.

In just one day, Yi contained more than 20,000 Korean soldiers. Si Mang asked the people to prepare a hot meal for them. Then it was announced that those who were willing to leave would receive a bucket of grain and leave. Those who did not wish to leave were assigned to serve as miscellaneous men in the battalions. In order to avoid rout, all the soldiers left without long weapons, only with a short stick with eyebrows for self-defense, and the officers were allowed to wear swords. After another day, about all the soldiers who could walk left, and those who did not leave were wounded and unable to walk, about 5,000 people. Si Mang put them in charge of guarding and feeding the livestock.
