Liu Xie's question made Zhang He and the others stunned.

How are soldiers trained in the military?

Your Majesty asked what this was about.

Although he was puzzled, Zhang He still answered truthfully: "Back to Your Majesty, there are currently five types of main training content for the sergeants and soldiers, namely training ears and eyes, training courage, training queues, practicing physical strength and boxing, and practicing skills. ”

Liu Xie nodded, and then continued: "How do you practice these five categories?" What's in it? ”

If you change to an ordinary general, you probably won't be able to answer for a while.

Because leading troops to fight and training are not the same thing.

Some generals will fight battles, but they will not necessarily lead the training of troops.

However, Zhang He is obviously a good player in this, and when he heard Liu Xie's question, he opened his mouth and said: "Returning to Your Majesty, training ears and eyes is mainly to train the soldiers' ability to 'judge the golden drum and distinguish the flag'." ”

"Whoever leads the three armies will have the festival of the golden drum, so he who is in order with the soldiers. The general will clearly inform the officials, and apply for three orders to teach the soldiers to live and carry the banner to change the law. ”

"And to train courage is to let the soldiers understand why they are fighting through education and rewards and punishments, so that they can understand reason, reason and then recognize, and only then can they be indomitable."

Hearing this, Liu Xie realized a lot in his heart.

First of all, the ancient battlefield was chaotic and it was difficult to give orders, so the soldiers could only be ordered through drums and flags, which was also the most important place to mobilize the army.

To put it bluntly, training courage means educating and instilling soldiers' thinking and strengthening their will to fight, which is also the reason why all troops need to have a reputation for fighting, and a nameless division has no courage.

"As for the training of the queue, this is the most important, because the queue is the basis for the change of formations and the use of tactics.

"However, it is very difficult for ordinary troops to reach this level, only elite troops can be lined up, and generals can command like an arm, so that the army can exert its maximum combat effectiveness."

Zhang He said again, and there was a sense of emotion between his words.

Although everyone knows this truth, it is extremely difficult to train such a team.

After listening to the previous three training contents, Liu Xie found that he didn't seem to have anything to change, and it was already quite perfect.

So he had to set his sights on the remaining two projects.

"What is it like to practice physical strength and skills?"

Gao Ran on the side spoke one step ahead of Zhang He, and explained to Liu Xie: "Ordinary physical training is to let soldiers practice wrestling, mounted archery, boxing, weightlifting, and so on. ”

"The skills are more extensive, the big ones should be divided into infantry, cavalry, chariots, sailors and other special projects, and the small ones have bows, crossbows, knives and guns, shields, etc."

"In addition, there are corresponding teams and formations for each major event, but they are more complicated, and the last general will not discuss them one by one."

When Liu Xie heard this, he completely fell into silence.

It turns out that the training of the ancient army...... So complicated?

How is it completely different from what I imagined!

Liu Xie felt that his initial idea was too much to take for granted, if training was really that simple, then the famous generals in history would inevitably be too worthless.

"Your Majesty, are you interested in any of this?"

Zhang He asked curiously.

Liu Xie's face was slightly embarrassed, this ancient man was too awesome, and after thinking about it, he felt as if he could only provide some advice on physical strength, so he said, "What's that...... I've been thinking of a few physical skills lately, so I'd like to discuss them with the two generals. ”

"Oh? Your Majesty is good at this? ”

Zhang He's eyes lit up, and he asked with some expectation: "I don't know what the method of exercise is, and the last general will listen to it!" ”

Gao Yan next to him also has the same look.

Liu Xie said: "It's not complicated, it's sit-ups, push-ups, pull-ups, weight-bearing cross-country ......."

As he spoke, he covered it up himself, and explained to the two of them where these exercise methods were, what they were for, and so on.

"Hoo ......"

After the demonstration of various movements, Liu Xie sweated profusely and got up from the ground panting.

He patted the dust on his body, and then confidently asked Zhang He and Gao Ran, "How is it, what do the two generals think of these methods of exercising physical strength?" ”

Zhang He and Gao Lan looked at each other,

Seeing them like this, Liu Xie thought that they were shocked, so he smiled and said: "Say whatever you want, don't scruple, there are no outsiders here." ”

"These training methods, the two generals can use to train those palace guards, and they will definitely improve their physical fitness."

Liu Xie's heart was full of a sense of accomplishment at this time.

That's the advantage of the traverser.

With just a slight move, he's already at the top.

Come on, come on, hurry up and praise me! Hurry up and worship me!

Liu Xie couldn't wait to manifest a wave of sainthood.

"Uh...... Your Majesty. ”

Zhang He scratched his head again, his scalp was about to be scratched by him, "Your Majesty's training methods certainly have merit...... But the sergeant was afraid that he would not be able to bear it. ”

"Because these methods are too physically demanding, small-scale training is fine, but if it is expanded to more than 1,000 people for training, it will inevitably increase the supply of food for the soldiers, and if the supply is insufficient, it may and may cause the soldiers to mutiny."

As a person who practices martial arts, Zhang He can certainly see that these strange exercise methods demonstrated by Liu Xie are indeed useful.

But if it is useful, it is another thing whether it can be used.

Those who practice martial arts consume energy, and the more they practice, the more tired they are; The more tired a person is, the more he eats, how can the army supply the food consumption brought about by such a high-intensity training for all the soldiers every day?

And the soldier can't eat enough, and he is forced to practice like this, which will definitely cause a mutiny in the long run.

Gao Ran also hesitated and said, "And there are several of these training methods that Your Majesty said are actually used in our army. ”

"For example, carrying weights is no different from marching in armor; Weightlifting exercise is to lift stone piers and stone locks. ”

"There is also that kicking step, there is also similar training, but it does not have much actual combat significance, and the exercise of military prestige is usually mostly phalanx and team training."

Liu Xie's smile suddenly stiffened on his face.

Zhang He also saw that His Majesty in front of him seemed to have been hit, and felt that it was embarrassing to stay here, so he said: "Then Your Majesty, if there is nothing else, the last general will retire first." ”

After speaking, he pulled Gao Ran and hurriedly left the back garden.

Liu Xie sat back on the stone bench with a dejected face, and lay on the table quite sloppily, his eyes were blank, and his heart was like ashes.

"It's all a lie in the novel."

Liu Xiechang sighed, feeling a little painful.

The wisdom of the ancients was no worse than that of the modern people, and some methods were not unthinkable to them, but the conditions did not allow them.

For example, Zhang He and Gao Ran, they have their own set of methods for exercising their physical fitness, but they are not handed over to ordinary soldiers.

The reason is very simple, or the food can't keep up.

Liu Xie's training methods in later generations could not be popularized without the support of good enough food, and the reason why the modern army could train like this was because the food was good, which would not work in ancient times.

Moreover, in ancient times, there were already perfect methods of military training.

The main thing is logistics, logistics, logistics!

Logistics is the last word!

In the future, he will still lie down honestly, don't think about making fools, it is easy to hit himself.

At the same time, Liu Xie also felt afraid after Zhang He left. As far as what he did today, once Yuan Shao knew about it, it would be troublesome.

According to Guo Jia's plan, now we only need to wait for Yuan Shao's internal problems to intensify. You can't make any extraneous branches. ”

"As long as I don't do anything, I can't make mistakes. Even if you want to do something like today, you must discuss it with Guo Jia first. ”
