Fufeng Song

After five days.

Lu Yao lay on his back on a sloping field, squinting his eyes to avoid the rays of the setting sun.

There were rhythmic vibrations from the ground below him, gradually approaching here, it was the soldiers doing long-distance running training.After the team was established, Lu Yao immediately organized training, such as knife skills, archery and so on. The long-distance running once in the morning and evening really made everyone miserable.

Every day before the sun came out, [-] soldiers had to put on their clothes and carry all the luggage, and run twice around the entire Jicheng. If they couldn't finish the run, they wouldn't have breakfast.And the chiefs and corps chiefs complained even more, because even if one soldier under their command failed to complete the training, they would not have breakfast.After breakfast, the normal training, patrolling, and shift work will not be reduced.And before dinner, the same thing had to happen.

The vibration on the ground became more and more clear, and Xue Tong's hoarse roar was faintly heard.Xue Tong is born with both strength and martial arts, and he doesn't care about long-distance running with a load of only ten miles, claiming to be at least five miles ahead of the rest of the soldiers.Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Lu Yao asked him to put on three layers of sleeve armor, wear an iron pocket, and carry a big knife, spear, bow and arrow, and dry food and drinking water for ten people, which added up to more than 120 catties.Ordinary people carry so many things on their backs, they might fall to the ground within fifty paces; Xue Tong managed to support himself, but he was also very tired.Especially in the last paragraph, every time I see him almost dying of exhaustion.

The soldiers behind Xue Tong were even more unbearable, and they were all exhausted.Some soldiers with poor physical strength almost relied on their colleagues to drag and drag them to reach the flag gate at the end.Some were even more unbearable, rolling to the ground tens of feet away from the flag gate, unable to get up again.

At this time Deng Gang showed his big killer.More than a dozen gang leaders lined up behind the flag gate carrying cauldrons full of food, and the smell of food wafted in the wind, squeezing out the last of the soldiers' strength.

The training intensity arranged by Lu Yao far exceeded the usual standard, and the daily physical exertion of the soldiers was huge, so their appetites became astonishing.The food allocated by the big camp alone is not enough to meet the demand anyway.

Fortunately, he was well prepared. Every night, he sent people to set up traps in the mountains and forests, and caught countless birds and animals for extra meals.The appeal of a meaty meal to the soldiers was unbelievable, and every time it inspired them to go forward bravely.

Lu Yao had read many online novels that traveled through history in modern times.In those novels, after the protagonist comes to a certain historical period, relying on the military knowledge learned from TV dramas, he can train a strong army to defeat the invasion.When he traveled to the Western Jin Dynasty by himself, he realized that the meaning of online novels was really unbelievable.

Since the rise of China, from Yanhuang to Xia, Shang, Zhou, Qin and Han, every dynasty and generation were born in the flames of war.The history of ancient China is almost a history of wars.With the accumulation of countless bloody battles, advanced military systems and military management ideas will naturally be formed.

In the former Han Dynasty, there were 53 military books widely circulated, with as many as 790 articles.At the end of the Han Dynasty, the world was in chaos, and all the heroes rose together, so the "New Book of Meng De" written by Emperor Cao Weiwu and "24 Art of War" written by Zhuge Liang, Minister of Shu, were widely circulated.The North Korean military system inherited the system of Han and Wei, and at the same time it had gains and losses. No matter the array, tactics, equipment, or golden drums, flags, and logos, they all have unique features, which are definitely beyond the imagination of nerds in the era of hot weapons.

The main reason for limiting the combat effectiveness of the army is not military ideology and training methods, but logistical support.The army is like a bottomless pit that devours money, food and supplies, and when fighting, training, and dispatching, the consumption will double.Therefore, the law of war says: Where an army of 70 troops is deployed and marched for thousands of miles, the expenses of the common people and the tribute of the public house are worth ten thousand gold per day; there are [-] households who mobilize internally and slack off the roads, and do nothing.With the production level in ancient times, how could it bear such consumption?

Train elite soldiers and strong generals, equip them with sharp blades and good horses, and provide them with sufficient food and fodder, and a hundred thousand people will be enough to run rampant in the world...but who can do it? What do 10 people eat?what to wear?Where do the weapons come from?These three problems are enough to drive a wealthy dynasty into ruin.

Relying on the rich accumulation of the Wenjing rule, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent troops to expel the Xiongnu. After several battles, the world was wasted and the people were miserable.Not long after the chaos at the end of the Han Dynasty, the vitality of the world has not recovered, and it cannot afford the investment in raising troops.Therefore, most of the commentators thought that the courtiers were indulging in comfort when they dismissed the soldiers from the prefectures and counties to return to the peasants. In fact, it was also because they could not afford it financially.

After the Eight Kings Rebellion, all the kings raised their own troops, but occupying one state and one county, they often had tens of thousands or even tens of thousands of troops, which far exceeded the limit of the burden of the people.Since there is almost no logistical support, the so-called army has become synonymous with armed refugees.

So Lu Yao didn't intend to use his poor military knowledge from his previous life to transform his troops.What he wants is actually to emphasize the obedience and teamwork awareness of the troops.

His subordinates are all the remnants of the Bingzhou Army, and their advantage is that they are all experienced fighters; their disadvantage is that many of these people are soldiers who are good at self-protection, and they often obey the orders of their superiors; Temporary entanglement, lack of mutual trust and mutual assistance.

These shortcomings are exactly what long-distance running training with a large amount of exercise can solve.The long-distance running training is boring and monotonous, and consumes a lot of energy. In the process of completing it, the soldiers also invisibly exercised their obedience.

At the same time, Lu Yao stipulated that every event and every team must be completed with the goal of the whole team reaching the finish line.This forces the strong to help the weak, and encourage and support each other.The spirit of teamwork is thus born.

"Daoming's military training method is very rare!" Wang Xiu's voice came from beside him.This relative of Liu Kun is now very close to Lu Yao, but when he is not on duty, he often comes to chat with Lu Yao.

Lu Yao knew in his heart that this might not be the meaning of Yue Shigong, maybe Yue Shigong also wanted to see through Wang Xiu's eyes to see if he was qualified for the post of general.

"Brother Zihao, this long-distance running training seems useless, but it is actually the most beneficial to the formation of the new army. It is very good for strengthening the soldiers' physical strength and perseverance, cultivating the obedience of the soldiers, and supporting each other's friendship among colleagues, etc. Function." Lu Yao smiled and said: "Mozi said: In ancient times, Wu Helu taught for seven years. Put on armor and hold soldiers, and run for three hundred miles before resting. This training method lasted for seven years. After seven years, the Wu army ran thousands of miles, won five battles and went to Yingdu, and achieved dominance."

"There is such a miraculous effect? ​​Those thieves under my command must also practice like this!" Wang Xiu said eagerly.

Lu Yao shook his head again and again: "I can't catch up, I can't catch up."

"What do you mean?"

"After exercising, the soldiers sweat through their heavy clothes. If they can't wipe their bodies in time and keep them dry, they are prone to disease. Since ancient times, disease has been a taboo in the army. Sun Tzu said: 'An army without all diseases means that it will surely win.' This In one sentence, whether we can overcome diseases and keep soldiers healthy is closely related to the victory or defeat of the war. Therefore, after training, the barracks need a lot of hot water to bathe and change clothes for soldiers. How can we have such conditions now? Once it is cold and snowy, the High-intensity training must be stopped."

Lu Yao raised his hand and pointed to the cauldrons in front of the camp gate: "In addition, whether military training can achieve good results, we must also consider whether nutritional supplements can keep up. If there is not enough supplementation, extensive training will only lead to physical decline , listlessness."

"What is this 'nutrition supplement'?" Wang Xiu asked blankly.

"How should I say it?" Lu Yao frowned.He is not an encyclopedia, so he can't explain clearly for a while.After a long while, he reluctantly said: "The so-called nutritional supplementation is probably the process in which we take in the beneficial ingredients in food to make up for the body's consumption."

He thought for a while, and then said: "For example, the starch and sugar contained in food, and the protein contained in meat are all important nutritional supplements. Our army has insufficient food and fodder, so I have sent people into the mountains to hunt in the past few days. They eat meat. In the past few days, they have almost wiped out all the birds and beasts in the vicinity... Even if Brother Zihao wants to follow suit, there is no stock available in the mountains."

The two were talking, when they suddenly heard the mighty sound of drums from the camp, Wang Xiu's expression changed, "My lords gather!"

He jumped up and led the horse, and whipped it hard.The war horse neighed long and galloped towards the camp.

Lu Yao didn't dare to delay, and hastily urged his horse to follow.
