Dragon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 257

Seeing that Liu Qi was "shocked" by the military formation, the smile in Li Yi's eyes almost overflowed, and Xu Huang looked at Li Yi with admiration. I understand.

In fact, the military training here is similar to the loyalty army training in Chang'an. Li Yi took out some things from the military training of later generations, and then deleted, deleted, and deleted them, and handed them over to Xu Huang.

At first, this set of battles was only used to fool Dong Zhuo, and then Li Yi didn't pay much attention to it. After all, in Li Yi's view, training with cold weapons and hot weapons must not follow a routine. Contrasting, neither fish nor fowl is light, and it might be counterproductive.

However, when he went south, Xu Huang changed the method of military training a bit, and came up with a set of "combination of ancient and modern" military training plans, and asked Li Yi for advice. Some items were added to the plan, and then it became the current method of training troops.

It may be a bit troublesome to be specific, but the basic idea of ​​this method of training troops is very simple.

Through the training methods of later generations, the organizational discipline of grassroots soldiers can be improved to ensure that even recruits can be "immovable like a mountain".

As for things like swiftness like wind and aggression like fire, although Li Yi really wants his soldiers to have that quality, but that is too difficult, and the input is not directly proportional to the output, so it is extremely uneconomical. Anyway, what Li Yi wants It's just that the army has always been strong, and it's not a godly army. A "moving like a mountain" is enough.

The current Li Yi is not a pure novice who has just crossed over. Although he does not have the ability to command thousands of troops to fight, it is not unreasonable to lead 2000 people to confront Cai Mao. Of course, it is only on land. Water battles are another matter.

And what decides the outcome?

The generals' bravery, strategy, timing, location, etc., are many, many.However, the most basic thing is the morale of the army.

2 people fought against each other, and 2000 people died in one wave, but the morale was high, and the battle would not retreat.

In the other group, only a thousand people died, but they were scared and wanted to run away, but they could only collapse, so they lost.

What Li Yi is training now is the discipline of the troops, which can also be said to be the morale. If he can achieve [-]% of the battle damage without collapsing, he will definitely be a strong army in the world.

At this time, three thousand people are standing on the school grounds, and they must not move until they are ordered. If you move, you will lose one meal, and move three times a month. Sorry, you can go back where you came from. The meals here Not for you.

The food in Li Yi's military camp is much finer than that in the common people's camp, and it is well managed. After removing dozens of thorns, no one dares to blow their hair during training. Over time, it has become a habit. It's really not enough to take it over.

Facing Liu Qi's question, Li Yi said with a smile: "This is General Xu Huang's method of training soldiers, Eldest Young Master, look, isn't this exactly in response to Sun Wuzi's sentence of not moving like a mountain?"

"Yes, it is as immobile as a mountain!"

Liu Qi and Li Yi talked, and felt that the pressure in front of them was much less. Looking back on the feeling just now, isn't it just a kind of pressure from the mountains?

Liu Qi couldn't help saying with emotion: "General Xu is really a general!"

Xu Huang shook his head slightly, clasped his fists and said: "My lord, in fact, this method of training soldiers is actually written by my master, Huang can't copy it and use it, I really don't dare to be greedy for merit."

Liu Qi glanced at Li Yi in surprise, but Li Yi didn't give in too much, but said truthfully: "With a sharp knife in hand, the capable will hurt others, and the mediocre will hurt himself. The same is true for the art of war. Even with Sun Wuzi behind him, it would be difficult to train soldiers."

Li Yi is telling the truth. He feels that Zhang Liao may be better than Xu Huang when it comes to fighting, but when it comes to training soldiers, Zhang Liao is not as good as Xu Huang. The reason is very simple. It is a matter of personality and hobbies. Zhang Liao is not good at it, but Xu Huang But it is different, when training and not training, Xu Huang on the general stage is completely two people.

Hearing Li Yi's praise, Xu Huang didn't say anything more, but just bowed deeply again.

Liu Qi saw all this and nodded secretly, admiring Xu Huang even more.

However, Liu Qi couldn't inquire too much about Xu Huang's affairs, and couldn't make Li Yi worry too much, so he turned the topic to military training.

"These soldiers are indeed extraordinary, but is it just that they are only allowed to stand still and not practice fighting in battle?"

Liu Qi was not polite either, and asked whatever came to his mind.

Li Yi glanced at Xu Huang, and Xu Huang explained: "Naturally there are those. According to the daily practice schedule, you have to stand for half an hour in the morning and afternoon, and then there will be other exercises."

Liu Qi couldn't help being curious, and said: "Then can you let Qi see how it will be practiced afterwards?"

When Liu Qi was in Nanjun, he also had soldiers and horses under his command. Although he was not a serious general, he knew a little about military training, but he felt that the drill in front of him should be quite different from what he knew.

Liu Qi looked at Xu Huang expectantly, but Xu Huang's expressionless face showed a look of embarrassment. He leaned forward and said, "Please forgive me, my lord. The military order is like a mountain, and the wind and rain can't move it, unless Nanyang If there is something urgent, the drill cannot be changed.”

Liu Qi glanced at Xu Huang in astonishment, and then at Li Yi. Seeing Li Yi rubbing his nose in embarrassment, he knew that what they were saying was true, and he was speechless.

In Liu Qi's view, these soldiers are Li Yi's soldiers, and they can do whatever they want, how could they be so rigid.

Seeing that Liu Qi was puzzled, Li Yi could only explain: "My lord, this is just to let the soldiers know that the military order cannot be violated, so if there is no urgent matter, I can't change it at will."

Seeing this, Liu Qi could only sigh and stopped pressing, but he didn't see the smile flashing across Li Yi's mouth.

Although Li Yi wants to strengthen the discipline of his troops, he will not let this discipline become his own shackles. The refusal of Liu Qi just now is purely an excuse.

Li Yi is training soldiers in Nanyang, it’s fine if they are ordinary soldiers and horses, but if they train elite soldiers, Liu Biao will definitely inquire about it. It’s hard to hide this news, so Li Yi took the initiative to ask Liu Qi to come and have a look today, believe it This has been able to hide Liu Biao's curiosity.

In fact, there are many more real military training processes, but those are not shown to Liu Qi.

However, Liu Qi's patience is better than Li Yi thought. In order to see Li Yi's military training method, Liu Qi spent half an hour in a daze. This made Li Yi a little unexpected, but it was nothing. Regular items are fine.

After Liu Qi saw it, he was not too disappointed. He also knew that all the recruits here were recruits, and it was really not easy for a group of recruits to charge and defend in an orderly manner.

Therefore, Liu Qi secretly made up his mind and prepared to suggest to his father that other places in Jingzhou should follow the same method of war as here. It's just that Liu Qi thought very well, but he didn't know that a strong army does not just "stand out", but Liu Qi's hard copying in the future made Jingzhou's army morale not high at all, and caused a lot of complaints. Of course, that's a later story, so I won't mention it for now.

After visiting the barracks, Li Yi was fine, with the blessing of dragon energy. Liu Qi was a little tired when he was just in shape. Li Yi no longer forced him to stay, and sent him back to the city to rest. Then Dian Wei brought an old man, After whispering a few words to Li Yi, Li Yi told him to invite the old man to the quiet room of the prefect's mansion.

Backing away, Li Yi looked at the hunched old man in front of him, and asked, "Old man Zhou, your old wife died early. There are two sons, three grandsons, and a granddaughter. The eldest grandson also got married a few years ago. I don't know what I said. Right?"

Old man Zhou felt chills all over his body. He already knew that the person in front of him was the prefect of Nanyang.

The reputation of the prefect outside is very good, but old man Zhou also thought that the prefect was a good person, but now he doesn't dare to think that way, because he was tied up in a sack when he was sleeping at home.

Now listening to Li Yi telling his family background in one go, this is going to wipe out his family, and he is so frightened that his courage is almost broken.

With a weeping face, the old man Zhou replied tremblingly: "What Mrs. Shou said is right, the old man is at home."

Li Yi felt that if the old man in front of him trembled any longer, he was afraid that he might die suddenly, so he stopped scaring him and asked directly, "I have a great wealth for you, would you like it?"

The old man Zhou felt that he would be dead if he didn't agree, so he hurriedly said: "Just ask the prefect if you have anything to do, the old man will definitely do his best."

"hehe"

Li Yi laughed, and said: "I heard people say that you were the best jade craftsman in the city in the early years, but now that you are older, you stopped doing this business."

Although the old man Zhou was a jade craftsman, he was still a small businessman, and he was a bit smart. He understood what Li Yi said, and boldly said: "The eunuch uses old skills."

"good."

Li Yi responded, raised his hand to think about what Old Man Zhou would say, and continued: "I want you to engrave a seal for me, but this is a confidential matter, and I want you not to come out of the prefect's mansion for the next five years. Of course, I won't lose money." If I marry you, I can buy you a concubine, and I will take care of your family members outside. Those grandchildren can be my disciples. In the future, I can guarantee that one of them will be an official. How about it? No promise?"

Hearing this, Old Man Zhou's heart skipped a beat, what a great thing, he was about to open his mouth, when he suddenly came to his senses, the eunuch promised him such a great benefit, and what he asked him to do was probably fatal.

Seeing the old man Zhou's expression, Li Yi said with a smirk: "I won't hide it from you, if you don't agree to this matter, I will help you prepare for the funeral, and as for your children, they will not be protected by me. "

"The old man agreed."

Old man Zhou smiled bitterly in his heart, can he not agree to this, Li Yi is threatening him with the lives of his whole family.
