back to ancient times to be emperor

Chapter 162 This is how elite soldiers are trained

This is already quite close to the drill training of later generations, what else can Lu Chengqi say?I had to say: "Take me to see the exercise."

These teachers naturally did not dare to resist the order, and immediately led the way.Only these royal guards are unhappy, running around all day and night, if not for their duties, they might curse people.

The back gate of Royal University is where Lishan Mountain is located, and it is on the side close to Baqiao.During the Spring and Autumn Period, Qin Mugong dominated Xirong, changed Zishui to Bashui and built a bridge, so it was called "Baqiao".In the third year of Emperor Wang Mang's reign, Baqiao flooded. Wang Mang thought it was not a good omen, so he changed the name of the bridge to Changcun Bridge.Later Taizu made Chang'an the capital again, and changed Changcun Bridge to Baqiao.

Baqiao has been the traffic hub of Guanzhong since ancient times, connecting the main traffic arteries in the east of Chang'an.Anyone who enters and exits the Gao and Tong Passes from the west and the east must pass through this place.Lu Chengqi set up the Imperial University nearby for the sake of the safety of Chang'an City.

In the former dynasty, post stations were set up on the Baqiao, and those who saw off their relatives and friends to the east usually had to go to Baqiao before breaking up, and they broke off the willow branches at the bridgehead as gifts.Over time, "Baqiao folding willows" has become a unique custom.Over time, Baqiao was renamed "Qingjin Bridge", "Broken Heart Bridge" and "Ecstasy Bridge" by people.There are also literati and poets here, who have done wonderful work.

After crossing the Baqiao, after a few miles, we entered the ancient road of Mount Li.Seeing that Lu Chengqi climbed without any effort, but some imperial guards were complaining, these instructors were also amazed.

Seeing the unbearable state of these imperial guards, Lu Chengqi also strengthened his mind: "Hey, these veteran soldiers, it's time to train them..."

Not long after, these people came to the halfway up Lishan Mountain, and saw a grass hut built on the mountainside, and Di Qing was reading military books in the hut.For other arrivals, he just ignored them.Because the clear whistle had already stopped this group of people, and the dark whistle never let go.

They are not allowed in until their tokens are checked.Lu Chengqi shouted outside the thatched cottage: "What a General Di, he treats me like this!"

Seeing that the person who came was Lu Chengqi, Di Qing heard the teasing meaning in his words, but he was old and mature, so he didn't think so, and quickly apologized: "The old minister is terrified, and His Majesty entrusted him with it, so he has to do things with his heart."

Lu Chengqi smiled and said, "You don't have to be like this, old general, I was just joking. How is the exercise going?"

Di Qing said: "The old minister set up a dragon flag a hundred miles away. Divide these bastards into six teams, each with more than [-] people. Three teams will defend and three teams will attack. The limit is three days. If the side does not capture the flag, it will be regarded as a failure, and the defending side will win. And vice versa, if there is anything wrong, I hope your Majesty will correct me!"

Lu Chengqi knew that the knives and guns used in the Royal Military Academy were all made of wood, dipped in flour and lime.If they are dotted with white powder, the trainees participating in the training will immediately withdraw from the battlefield.

He came to the middle of the thatched hut, where there was a three-dimensional topographic map piled up with loess, and the proportions were well done.In fact, as early as the 3rd century BC, maps of the famous Penglai Fairy Mountain in China appeared on jars and incense burners.In AD 32, general Ma Yuan told Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu about the military three-dimensional map. The models of those valleys and mountains were made of glutinous rice.The wisdom of the Chinese is fully revealed in map making.Coupled with Lu Chengqi's clear request to mark the directions, such as going north, going south, left west, and right east, these maps have gradually taken the shape of accurate maps for later generations.

Di Qing pointed to the small dragon flag on the three-dimensional map as if pointing the country and said: "Your Majesty, this is the dragon flag that these bastards will fight for. The three teams of Xiongwei, Xiaojie, and Zhongmeng are the main attackers. , Yunjie three teams are in charge. Of the six teams, only one team can win. If you have not returned here before noon on the fourth day, then even if you have the dragon flag in hand, you will be considered a loser. After losing, all the training volume Doubling the size, you need to help the whole school do laundry for three days.”

Hearing this severe punishment, Lu Chengqi didn't feel much.Lu Chengqi was most interested in this scuffle, and quickly asked, "How many days has it been?"

Di Qing said with a smile: "Your Majesty came at the right time, and it is already the third day. If it is soon, I will be back now..." Before the voice fell, a student had already shouted on the mountain road: "Di Jiaoxi ,We're back!"

Di Qing clapped his palms and said with a smile: "It seems that the winner and loser have already been decided. Would you like to inspect it in person, Your Majesty?"

Lu Chengqi nodded, and followed Di Qing out of the cottage.I saw a student wearing a student uniform with the word "loyalty and fierce" running towards this side quickly carrying a dragon flag.

After panting and planting the heavy dragon flag in front of the hut, the student fell to the ground exhausted.Three days of inhuman torture, only some dry food was prepared for them, not even water, if these students had not adapted to the devilish training, they would have cursed their mothers out of their throats.

This kind of training, which is infinitely close to actual combat, is a very strong will exercise. Not only do you have to fight wits and courage, but you also need to solve problems such as eating, drinking and sleeping by yourself.It can be said that it is almost the same as training special forces in later generations.This kind of survival test really wasn't something that Lu Chengqi came up with. Maybe it's because the life in the Royal Military Academy is too boring, and these strong men have nowhere to spend their energy, so Di Qing and the others came up with such a perverted method, right?
Di Qing looked at the student who was so limp, and hated that iron could not be made into steel. He lowered his face and said, "Get over here and report to His Majesty the process of winning!"

The student of the "Loyal and Fierce" team immediately jumped up from the ground like a conditioned reflex, gave a military salute to Lu Chengqi, and clearly explained to Lu Chengqi how to win.It turned out that these six teams have been fighting each other for three days, and the [-] students with the team name of "loyalty and fierceness" have ambushed early in the morning on the road they must pass through to turn around.After the captain captured the flag, it was quickly passed to other students waiting by the roadside.The other five teams didn't think of this move. They saw him running away like a relay race, but they had no way to catch up, and they were so angry that they scolded their mothers.Of the remaining five teams, most of the students left the battle, and those who remained were exhausted. After chasing for a while, seeing that they had been prepared, they knew that they had been tricked by the Zhongmeng team. Do these low-level things like picking up dead chickens.

After hearing this, Lu Chengqi laughed and said: "Soldiers are tricky. Being able to accurately judge the situation on the battlefield and using the mentality of the enemy and ourselves is a good tactic. The strategy of the loyal and fierce team can be said to be superior! When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman wins. Water is impermanent, and soldiers are impermanent. It is the same principle, very good, I am very satisfied!"

Di Qing couldn't see anything on his face, but hearing Lu Chengqi's praise, he was very happy.But he said: "These bastards are still very young, and they don't deserve such praise from His Majesty!"

Lu Chengqi smiled, glanced at Wang Yanchen who was dissatisfied, and said, "It's better than my useless imperial guards. How about it, Wang Yanchen, you don't have to go back to the palace with me, and stay at the Royal Military Academy for a period of study Bar!"

Wang Yanchen's indifferent appearance was actually not an act of faking.In his opinion, these are all ostentatious things, and if there is a real war, it will be useless at all.Hearing that Lu Chengqi lavishly praised these students, he thought he was the head of the imperial bodyguard, so he had already felt sour in his heart, and he didn't know what it was like.Hearing that Lu Chengqi wanted him to stay in the Royal Military Academy, he raised his head in astonishment, and blurted out: "What? No, no, wait...Your Majesty, you can't do this! I didn't do anything wrong, why should I be sent away?" Come to this place?"
