Entering the military camp, one could clearly smell the smell of alcohol and blood, and of course there were various chants and applause. Of course, Li Meng, Hu Feng and others also hurried forward to salute, but they did not stop.
Training in progress.
Listening to the sound of fighting in his ears, Chen Xi stepped on his feet and saw clearly that there were thousands of people surrounding him and more than a hundred people were fighting!
But what made Chen Xi's eyes twitch was that these bastards had real weapons and armor, and were playing real games in a circle. This was not considered a game at all.
Especially when he saw with his own eyes that a guy was slashed across the chest with a knife, leaving a trail of sparks, and a backhand knife made blood on the opponent's arm. Chen Xi's eyelids and face could no longer hold up, and these bastards started another so-called
of regular training.
It was winter at this time, and this group of people were actually fighting so hard that their bodies were filled with anger. It was obvious that they were really treating this dangerous training as a normal game.
"Pfft!" A Liangzhou soldier held the opponent's knife, slid it down with his backhand, walked under the blade, and made a gash in the opposite leg.
"I always feel that your training method is very cruel." Chen Xi said speechlessly, watching helplessly as three guys were accidentally knocked down and carried down. However, they were revived not long after, and then they lay there and watched the fight on the field.
.
"Hey!" Li You said with a mocking expression, "Shed some blood and sweat at this time. You will definitely not be the one bleeding on the battlefield."
"Besides, you didn't notice that most of the onlookers were wearing leather armor. Only the ones who came out were wearing armor. It protected the chest and back of the heart without attacking the neck. The injuries were also to the arms and legs. This is much better than when I was in Xiliang."
Li You said casually.
Speaking of which, when he was in Xiliang before, Li You only dared to carry out this kind of training in Xiliang headquarters in winter. Moreover, at that time, because of the lack of armor, he wore common clothes and carried out this kind of training. Even if he wore ten layers of common clothes, he would train every year.
Many people will also die.
As for why he trained in this way in winter, it was because doing so in winter would not easily inflame wounds and prevent accidental damage. Therefore, Li You always conducted this kind of training at the headquarters of Xiliang Army soldiers in winter.
Chen Xi looked at Li You and suddenly felt that Li You was definitely a devil instructor before. With such brutal combat training, it would be unreasonable for the Xiliang soldiers not to be strong.
"It's much better now." Li You sighed and said, "Not to mention anything else, just this armor. Although we can't replenish all the soldiers, we can still do it with one leather armor. Plus now we have
Medical soldiers, this kind of training is actually very safe."
"No wonder the Xiliang soldiers and Xiliang cavalry are the bravest in the world. If they are trained in this way, it is unreasonable not to be fierce." Chen Xi said speechlessly, "Don't they know what fear is?"
"It's better than death. Soldiers have food to eat, and strong soldiers have meat to eat. Even back then, these people would have been able to eat meat for three months." Li You said bitterly, remembering how he said it at the beginning.
Xiliang soldiers are the worst equipped in the world, but they are also the most capable of fighting. Why can they fight? It comes from experience and blood. Any soldier who can undergo this kind of training can become an elite.
"There is no way, Xiliang was so miserable back then. Fighting can be said to be the favorite thing of this group of people, because after the fight there is wine and meat. Although someone always falls, the chance of our defeat is very low in the end." Li You said.
I feel so much nostalgia when I say this.
Compared with those years ago, and looking at now, with the current living standards in Taishan, it is probably not easy to select 10,000 elite soldiers who can fight against each other on the field like that back then. However, in Xiliang back then, it was really
Don't be afraid anymore. If you die, I will sacrifice my life for you for a meal.
Chen Xi didn't ask further. He could guess how miserable Liangzhou was back then. But if it hadn't been to that extent, Dong Zhuo wouldn't have been able to raise a powerful army in the world in such a short period of time with his heroes.
!
The fighting on the field ended after about half a quarter of an hour. After that, all the soldiers, led by their respective generals, saluted Li You and Chen Xi. However, it was obvious that many of them had recognized Li You, with expressions on their faces.
He looked at Li You excitedly.
"Tell me, it's obvious that this occasion is suitable for you." Chen Xi took a step back and gave the place to Li You.
Li You glanced at Chen Xi and walked up to the high platform in the camp. At this time, all the soldiers had already formed a cross arrow formation under the leadership of their respective generals. It should be said that this thing has become the instinct of the Xiliang soldiers.
"The money, food, and meat have been distributed to you." After Li You took a step forward, he did not say anything big, but directly said what the Xiliang soldiers liked to hear the most, "There are those who have been deducted and come out!"
No one came forward. The thing Li You was most strict about back then was military power. He couldn't lack military expenditures. Whoever dared to withhold military expenditures could cut off as much as they wanted, no matter how important the other party was to him. For this reason, the Liangzhou family who had taken refuge in him
Li You killed everyone in his family in front of the soldiers!
Among the Liangzhou soldiers, if there is a general who deducts military expenses, and the soldiers have clear evidence, those who directly take it will not only not be punished, but will also be rewarded. Therefore, the soldiers of the Liangzhou soldiers, if not other things, rarely have problems in this regard, and the soldiers rarely appear.
deserter.
Of course, the generals of the Xiliang army were mostly poor when they were not fighting because they did not have the opportunity to withhold military expenses. However, if they won a battle, they would share the spoils.
Li You simply turned a blind eye to this aspect. Honor cannot be eaten as food. Only by combining interests and honor can the general feel his own value.
In addition, only when you win the battle will you get the loot, so Li You is much more casual about the general's interception of the loot. He can just turn a blind eye and look at it for the sake of face. After all, there is always 30 to 40% left when turning it over.
It is also because this Xiliang soldier likes war, and he always rushes forward when fighting. He will never be afraid when it is time to fight. The standard of living is directly linked to war. The higher the frequency of war, the higher the winning rate, and the higher the standard of living!
In that case, there is no problem for them to accept this kind of abusive training, but for a person once he accepts a certain setting, or even gets used to a certain setting, he will feel that it is actually very
It's exciting, not scary.
This is also why the Xiliang soldiers don't have any problem watching the real swordsmanship and gunfighting in their own camp. Although the Taishan soldiers are only slightly weaker than the Xiliang soldiers in battle, when they see this kind of crazy and masochistic training, they all
Somewhat frightened, the Xiliang soldiers didn't see anything wrong with this kind of training.
"Back to the military division, we were given plenty of meat, wine, steamed buns and polished rice, and we also received a large sum of reward money and salary, which was much better than in previous years. But with this money and no fighting, my brothers and I received a lot.
Shame!" Hu Feng took a step forward and scratched his head and said.
