Chapter 34: Drills

The power of faith is strong, and the soldiers are full of fighting spirit, and they grit their teeth one by one and train strictly.

Someone wearing forty or fifty pounds of armor ran up and down the mountain.

Some people sleep with bows and knives.

Almost all of them have calluses on their hands.

The straw man stakes used for training were chopped and sparsely sparsely stabbed by them, and Li Yue did not need to supervise them at all.

In the era of the Two Jin Dynasty, the dignitaries were as cowardly as chickens and rotten as maggots, but the power from the bottom never decayed and never feared Hulu.

The Beifu Army in history was formed by the northern refugees.

After following Emperor Wu of the Song Dynasty's Northern Expedition, he set up a moon formation with thousands of troops, broke the 30,000 cavalry of the Northern Wei Dynasty, destroyed the five kingdoms before and after, and killed the six emperors.

So it's not that the northerners can't do it, but the court of the Sima family can't do it.

The Han people have never lost their bravery, all they lack is a leader!

Li Yue suddenly knew why Bo Wu wanted to give way to himself.

After shouting the slogan, Li Yue felt that he was also full of fighting spirit, and he dealt with civil and military affairs during the day.

Sometimes he wears forty or fifty pounds of armor and patrols the mountains like ordinary soldiers.

The weather in May and June, occasional heavy rain, stuffy and hot, once you travel, sweat all over your body like rain, and your feet are full of blisters.

The soldiers did not complain, and Li Yue did not.

In the evening, Xiang Yu, Liu Bang, Han Xing, Zhang Liang, Wei Qing, Huo Quzhi, Ban Chao, Zhang Qian, Fu Jiezi, Cao Cao, Zhuge Liang, Guan Yu, Zhang Liao, etc., all of the names and deeds representing the spirit of China came out of Li Yue's mouth.

The more the soldiers listened, the brighter their eyes became.

"The ancestors were so brave, but my generation sat back and watched the loss of our homeland, and we deserved to die!" Xu Cheng's face was full of shame.

Shame is almost brave.

In addition to shame, the soldiers also have a little more national self-confidence and identification with China.

Shi Hu trampled the Han people into the mud in the north, oppressed and mutilated them by various means, so that the number of Hu people north of the Yellow River was almost the same as that of the Han people.

It can be said that China has never had such a dangerous time since ancient times.

The Hu people, led by the Qian, have a sufficient population to completely replace the Han people!

Coupled with a series of riotous operations by the Sima family, it doubled the national self-confidence of the Han people.

This great and glorious nation faces the most dangerous moments.

At night, the soldiers slept, and Li Yue had to study the art of war under the dappled lights.

Reading the art of war of the sages seems to be in their conversation.

The era in which Wei Yuzi was born was the period of Ying Zheng, which not only had the means to govern the army, but also various methods of governing the people and the country.

It was quite characteristic of the times at that time, and the killing spirit almost broke through the restrictions of bamboo slips, which was very different from the "benevolence and righteousness" advocated by other art of war.

For example, those who are good at using soldiers in ancient times can kill half of the pawns, then kill their thirteenth, and kill their eleventh. Whoever can kill half of them, Weigahaine! Kill the thirteen, add the princes! Kill the eleven, and order the soldiers!

Simple and crude.

If you think about it carefully, it doesn't make sense, Bai Qikeng killed 400,000 Zhao soldiers, so that the last country with the power to fight against the Qin State was weakened from then on, and laid the foundation for the Qin State to unify the world.

Looking back at the rise of Shile Shihu, this is exactly the case.

Even if the northern forces surrender, they will inevitably be killed in a pit.

But it was this brutal method that made no one in the north dare to rebel.

In such a perilous world, isn't it necessary to kill such a general in vain?

The other Sima Fa, Wu Zi and Li Yue also finished studying quickly, but they were not as shocking as Wei Yizi.

Both Sima Fa and Wu Zi focused on military training and the analysis of the battlefield situation and national situation.

It was also of great help to Li Yue.

Later generations always thought that standing in line, walking right, etc. were the patents of the modern army, but in fact, during the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the Chinese army played like this.

"Shangshu" pastoral oath: Today's things, not to be ashamed of six steps, seven steps, but to stop, all together.

It means that after taking six steps and seven steps, after stopping, the array should be neat.

The word "exercise" in the drill is array training.

In fact, its complexity is still above the later generations, not only to master the basic movements such as advancing and retreating, left and right, vertical and horizontal, dividing and combining, rising, sitting, kneeling, and prostrating, but also to know the banner and the golden drum.

It is by no means a simple matter of advancing by hearing the drum and retreating by smelling the gold.

Flags and golden drums represent many meanings.

Mastering these, just qualified, the next is the practice of drill, the "Liutao" recorded in the martial charioteer, under forty years old, more than seven feet five inches tall, can run to catch up with galloping horses, can jump on a rapidly moving chariot, but also can pull a full eight-stone crossbow......

Wei Zhiwu's pawn took it by degree, the armor of the three genera, the crossbow of the twelve stones, the negative arrow fifty, put it on it, the crown with the sword, won the grain of three days, and tended to a hundred miles in the middle of the day......

It is higher than the requirements of the special forces of later generations.

Therefore, it is not easy to train an elite, after many forces and dynasty elites are exhausted, they will be out of breath for more than ten years, and then it will be the fate of the country.

Practice, you don't need Li Yue to worry about it, wear armor and go up and down the mountain a few times, shoot a few hares, and the quality will come.

Even the so-called elite high-force guards are also carried on the rugged mountain roads of Heiyun Mountain.

The hard part is the formation drill.

Take the future generations as an example, the quality of high school students and college students is high, right? In military training, he is still full of foreign appearances.

I can't tell the difference between left and right......

There is no way around this thing, so it can only rely on training day after day to make the soldiers form a conditioned reflex.

Li Yue made twenty-three small flags two feet high and one tooth flag three feet high.

If the tooth flag moves, the whole army moves, the tooth flag goes to the left, the whole army goes to the left, to the right, the whole army goes to the right, and if you wave it forward, you will impact the enemy formation, wave it, and form a formation on the spot, ready to meet the enemy's impact.

It can command not only the array, but also the troops.

Archers, spearmen, cavalry, etc., can command through the small banner next to the tooth flag.

The complexity was an eye-opener for Li Yue.

In fact, if you think about it, the noisy battlefield of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people can't be shouted at all by relying on their voices, and the heralds can't have time.

Of course, there are only more than 2,000 soldiers in Heiyun Mountain plus scouts.

You don't need anything as complicated.

There is no cavalry in the army, so Li Yue greatly simplified it, and did not ask everyone to learn it in a short time, but the officers must master it quickly.

The officers were all promoted by Li Yue, and his words were listened to Ruolun.

At night, Li Yue read the art of war, and the officers outside were also reciting various orders and flags, reminding each other.

There is nothing difficult in the world, only afraid of those who have a heart.

Heiyun Mountain is united in its heart, so that everyone is motivated.

The officers learned, things were much easier, and it was up to them to correct the non-commissioned officers.

Within a few days, there was a bit of murder in the barracks.

"Thorn!" More than 2,000 spears pierced out, murderous.

It was as if the enemy was right in front of him.

Hatred, in this day and age, is not entirely a bad thing, at least it can quickly unite people's hearts.

Even Confucianism has the argument that "repay grievances with virtue, how to repay virtue".
