Warring States Eagle

As the order to assemble sounded, all males over the age of 15 in the territory were assembled to a school field selected by Luo Shizhengliang in front of Xiaomu Village.This school field is located in front of Xiaomu Village, facing Ye Gaoshan, the only entrance to Xiaomu Village, and only 5 minutes away from Daxi Village. The location is enough for hundreds of people to train.

At this time, all the people stood in a pile in a mess, and when they saw the lord coming, they stopped talking quickly.

Roshi Masahiro glanced at everyone, and there were only 6 people present (Togo Heiji was organizing the distribution of this month's food, Onishi Kuniji took 5 people to lobby the nearby dirty people to join the territory, and Tsuda Hiromune was with him), and all of them were It turned out that the villagers of Xiaomu Village (all suffered minor injuries to varying degrees during the first battle last night, but heard that the lord was going to train them how to kill bandits, they all gathered together).

"Everyone, I saw your heroic side last night, and I am proud of your performance." Roshi Masara looked at the messy ashigaru standing in front of him, and said with a serious expression, "But, this is not enough. "

These ashigaru saw the lord praising him for showing joy on the front, but they couldn't help being taken aback when they heard the lord's words behind him.

"Yes, none of these are enough to defeat the bandits. Now you are just the ants that the bandits say, and you will only be killed when you go to the battlefield," Zheng Lianghao Luo said bluntly.

The ashigaru were a little dissatisfied, but thinking about whether it was the lord standing in front of them, or a swordsman who had killed 7 or 8 bandits, they immediately became discouraged.

"Starting today... I and your ashigaru general Tsuda Hiromune will train you." Roshi Masahiro looked at the ashigaru's expressions of displeasure, and carefully analyzed the changes in their hearts.

"Dissatisfied? Let's see how you stand. Whoever refuses to accept can stand up, and whoever can accept a move from me will take back my words." Luo Shi Zhengliang stared, and the swordsman's coercion immediately radiated.

A few ashigaru immediately took a step back in fright.

"The first lesson I teach you today is to obey orders, serve your lord's orders, and take the lord's orders as the highest orders. From now on, if anyone violates my order, I will use this knife to remove his head" After finishing speaking, Masara Roshi pulled out his sword, and plunged it into the ground in front of him with a sound of "Cheng".

"One person is given to the enemy to kill, but two people can kill more than twice as many enemies. Follow me, and I will teach you how to bravely kill the enemy and take off the enemy's head," Luo Shizhengliang continued.

"When this training is over and you pass my test, you will become a samurai of my Roche family, honorable lord samurai." He asked loudly, "So, tell me, are you confident to pass the test?"

"Yes, Your Highness." A group of ashigaru were extremely excited after hearing Masara Roshi's words.I was a filthy citizen yesterday, but now I can become a warrior as long as I pass the Lord Lord's test.Honorable samurai master, you don't even have to give up your life for this title.

"Very well, I will make you all real samurai", Masara Roshi was very happy with the performance of the ashigaru.

So with the excited six ashigaru, Roshi Masara officially started his career as an instructor.His training plan is mainly divided into three parts. One, it is mainly to learn the basic sense of discipline, learn to stand in line and walk in unison, and distinguish between left and right;After all, time is limited, and the bandits will come to retaliate soon, so the main purpose is to form initial combat effectiveness as soon as possible.

In the first three days, because some of the ashigaru wounds had not yet scabbed, they all focused on queue training.Due to the limited level of education, at the beginning a few ashigaru always forgot the left and right sides, and finally Luo Shizhen Liang let them hold a stone in their right hand to remember the left and right sides, and then gradually improved, and it took nearly two days to teach these ashigaru Lightly distinguish which side is the left side and which side is the right side, and whether to step on the left leg or the hind leg first when walking in unison.On the contrary, Tsuda Guangzong mastered this novel training method very quickly, and many essentials can be learned once taught.

After the full-day training in the first three days, the wounds of the injured ashigaru are basically unharmed, so from the fourth day, new training rules will be implemented.

Every day at six o'clock in the morning, the ashigaru team under him had to get up, and then they each carried their spears and rice balls. After gathering at the school grounds, they made a four-mile road (the distance from the school grounds to the front of Daxi Village was two miles, round-trip Twice, a total of four miles, 2000 meters) armed cross-country training with heavy loads.

Even Masara Roshi himself had to participate, running with the weight of the ashigaru.The ashigaru people saw that the lord joined them and trained together, so their morale was very high.

The run took almost half an hour.After arriving at the training ground, take a short rest, the ashigaru guys finish the rice balls they brought with them, and start the formal training.Since the time is in the morning, and the territory is already in a very remote place, the closest distance between the two wealthy clans on the border is more than half a day away, and they have to go through dense forests, so Luo Shi Zhengliang is not afraid of being seen by people with ulterior motives in his military training methods. .

About half an hour after the queue training, the spear training began.Masara Roshi asked someone to stab several thatched people, and asked Ashgaru to stab at least 300 times a day under the leadership of Tsuda Hiromune.

After the spear training is completed, the training of the spear formation will begin.Mainly square and circular.Due to the limited number of people, the current phalanx is only divided into two rows and staggered, which is used to face the enemy head-on; the circular formation is mainly used for defense when surrounded.

When all the above-mentioned training is completed, the morning is basically over, and the ashigaru can be dismissed and return to their own fields to work.After all, the current food conditions cannot afford the separation of soldiers and peasants. If the ashigaru are forced to train all day, maybe they will run away.Now I am just a lord with a weak foundation who has been promoted. Once the anger of the public is aroused, my life will be in danger every minute.

On the afternoon of the fourth day when the training officially started, I received a message from Onishi Guozhi, saying that I had successfully persuaded the three villages and nearby filthy people to join the territory, but due to the need to move, it would take two days to arrive. After all, they may be attacked by bandits during the relocation process.

As a result, Masara Roshi had to suspend the work of leading the training in person, and Tsuda Hiromune was in charge of supervising it, while he himself dealt with this matter with all his strength.

Why wasn't Togo Heiji in charge of this work?The reason starts from the third day when the ashigaru training officially started.On the third day after the start of the ashigaru training, considering that as the ashigaru's injury improved, the training volume gradually increased, and the physical energy consumption during the training was relatively large. Masahiro Roshi issued an order to increase the ashigaru who participated in the training by 1 bucket of miscellaneous grains per person every month.After receiving this order, Dongxiang Heiji ran to Luo Shi Zhengliang angrily, saying that this government affairs could not be done, and insisted on letting go of the pick.

To be honest, it was no wonder that Togo Heiji was so annoyed.The entire territory is only 47 stones in total, and 11 stones have been allocated this month. The lord is also planning to recruit the dirty people from the three nearby villages. Even if they bring their own food, it is conservatively estimated that they will have to distribute another 10 stones of food.Now the lord wants to increase the ashigaru food expenditure. Based on the calculation of 20 to 30 people, each ashigaru will distribute 1 bucket of miscellaneous grains, and that month will increase by 2 to 3 shi. In this month alone, the expenditure will be at least 23 shi. What about the next few months?So Dongxiang Heiji turned into an "angry youth" uncle and vomited bitterness to Luo Shizhenliang.

Luo Shizhengliang couldn't think of a solution for a while, so he had to think of the two wealthy families nearby. Didn't you ask me to help you keep the bandits out?Well, this requires wages.

So Masarato Roshi said to Togo Heiji, "Heiji, choose an ashigaru who looks seriously injured, and take two bandit heads to the Dono house and the Tahara house, and remember to look embarrassed."Roshi Masarai also did not ask Togo Heiji to self-mutilate, because he was also injured that night.Now the arm is still wrapped with a few rags.

Dongxiang Heiji couldn't help being stunned when he heard it, and the next bitter words he had just prepared choked in his throat.I couldn't help muttering in my heart, what does the lord want to do?

"After you arrive at these two families, tell them that the bandits have frequently attacked the village recently, and the village is almost unable to support it. You should make two requests to them. One is to ask them to send troops to repel or even eliminate the bandits, and the other is to provide food, grass and weapons. Support, we are willing to pay a certain fee. If the two companies do not support, then in order to survive, we can only move to other places. In addition, be careful not to let them know that we have integrated into one territory," Luo Shizhengliang continued Said.

"Your Highness, it is understandable to ask for food, grass and weapons support, but if you send troops, I am worried that they will take the opportunity to annex the family." Togo Heiji said to Luo Shizhenliang in puzzlement.

Luo Shizhengliang knew that the head of the Dongxiang Branch of Satsuma Prefecture did not fully agree with himself as the lord, so he dared to raise such an objection, so he had to ask, "Heiji, do you think they will send troops?"

Dongxiang Heiji was taken aback again, his brows were slightly frowned, and after a little thought, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he saluted Luo Shizhenliang, "Your Highness, I understand. I will set off immediately tomorrow and promise to complete the task."

On the morning of the second day, Togo Heiji went to the school grounds and picked an ashigaru who seemed to be seriously injured and set off. The first destination was the Dono house in the southwest direction, where there were people familiar with Togo Heiji.

So Masahiro Roshi, who is short of major generals and has no food, had to go into battle shirtless himself, and Tsuda Hiromune took over the military training work.After more than two days of training, several ashigaru have basically mastered the formation and stopped, and it is difficult for the spear formation to produce results in a short period of time.The rest is just to supervise the training. Of course, Tsuda Hiromune does not have as much deterrent power as Roshi Masara. Maybe someone will slack off after Roshi Masara left, so Roshi Masara left his saber on the high platform of the school grounds. On the way, before leaving, he clearly ordered Tsuda Hiromune in front of all the ashigaru, and if someone slacked off during training, he would use this knife to cut off his head to deter the training ashigaru.

In this way, Masara Roshi returned to his own residence empty-handed (it turned out that the samurai sword seized from the thief had been rewarded to Onishi Kunji).He first arranged for people to notify Onishi Kuniji to gather all the people who took refuge there in one village before setting off for the territory. Then he immediately organized the remaining people from Komaki Village and Onishi Village to build enough temporary huts next to Honcho. The trained ashigaru is responsible for felling and transporting.
