The sound of the flute swallows, Qin E's dream cuts off the moon in the Qin Tower. The moon in the Qin Tower, the willows are colored every year, and the mausoleum is sad to say goodbye.
On the Qingqiu Festival in Leyouyuan, the sound of Xianyang's ancient road was extinguished. The sound was extinguishing, the west wind was still shining, and the Han family mausoleum was visible.
——"Recalling Qin E·Xiao Shengyan" Li Bai
…
After returning to the military camp, Bai Fu allocated a large amount of food and sent people to deliver it to the col. Several clan chiefs distributed it to nearby villages.
Ten days later, thousands of able-bodied men arrived in batches at the Beiting Military Camp in Anxi and signed up to join the army. In the next few days, there was an endless stream of people coming and going at the recruitment office.
The brigade commander recruiting soldiers was overjoyed. It was the first time in several years of recruitment that he had seen so many soldiers of the right age.
After the recruitment of troops was full, the recruiting school captain asked Bai Fu if he would continue to expand the recruitment.
Bai Fu shook his head and said: "We cannot overstaff, otherwise the imperial censor will impeach us. Once the court blames us, not only will we be punished, but General Guangbi will also be implicated."
The recruiting school captain regretted: "The people who signed up to join the army this time are all strong and strong men. Most of them have basic martial arts skills and are rare good soldiers. If you miss it, I don't know if you will have such an opportunity next time."
.”
Bai Fu had an idea in his mind, and that night, Bai Fu called Hu Yan Tieyi, Tang Kui and Yue Huzhu into the tent.
Bai Fu first explained the establishment of the imperial court, and then said to Yue Huzhu: "The recruitment of soldiers by the captain is reasonable. It would be a pity if we miss this batch of soldiers.
After thinking about it, I want to wait until the training of this new batch of recruits is completed, and you will lead the team to select outstanding soldiers to return to the village, form a militia group of rural warriors, and train directly in the village.
The army should be trained during the slack time, plowed during the busy time, and trained in the fields.
I will send a group of excellent instructors to assist you in training Xiang Yong, and distribute corresponding weapons and equipment to you."
Yue Huzhu said with a smile: "If this is the case, that would be great. When they need to replenish their military resources in the future, they can join the army at any time."
Having said this, Yue Huzhu hesitated for a moment and said: "General, I have something you don't know whether to say or not?"
Bai Fu smiled and said: "Brother Yue, please speak frankly."
Yue Huzhu said: "In the past two days, I heard from the brigade commander recruiting soldiers that after the recruitment is over, the children in our village will be divided into different camps."
Huyan Tieyi said: "Yes, this is how recruits are recruited in the army. What's wrong with that?"
Yue Huzhu thought about his words and said: "General, children from farmers are very nervous when they leave their hometown and come to this unfamiliar environment in the army.
If there is no mixing, and soldiers from a village or a township are organized into a battalion, this sense of strangeness can be minimized..."
"Nonsense! If that's the case, then are the newly trained soldiers the army of the Tang Dynasty or the army of your village?!" Before Yue Huzhu could finish speaking, Huyan Tieyi had already started blowing his beard and staring.
"Huyan, wait until Brother Yue finishes speaking." Bai Fu glared at Huyan Tieyi. Huyan Tieyi stuck out his tongue and quickly backed away.
Yue Huzhu was very grateful to Bai Fu for saving the field. He saluted again and said: "General, there is another benefit to having soldiers from a village in one camp."
"Oh? Tell me." Bai Fu encouraged Yue Huzhu to continue speaking with his eyes.
With Bai Fu's encouragement, Yue Huzhu strengthened his belief and said loudly: "I heard that during battles, the Tang army often suffered a rout because of individual teams escaping before the battle.
If the fellow villagers are organized into a camp, since they are all related, if someone falls into the fighting formation, the other fellow villagers will definitely fight to the death until they are rescued!"
"Fight to the death and never retreat!"
As soon as these words came out, Bai Fu's eyes lit up and he considered Yue Huzhu's suggestion.
Bai Fu thought to himself: "In the decisive battle of Heyang, General Guangbi will personally take charge.
Even so, if he hadn't been holding the golden arrow of "Zhan Li Jue" and guarding the back of the position to supervise the execution, the first ones to escape from the battle would have been Pugu Huai'en and his son.
Blood is thicker than water, and isn't the family relationship between neighbors stronger than any military rules and regulations?"
Thinking of this, Bai Fu said: "Brother Yue, the Tang Army has never trained recruits like this since it was established."
Yue Huzhu's eyes darkened and his heart became cold. He actually knew this, but he was just taking a chance. After hearing Bai Fu's words, he stopped arguing.
Seeing this, Bai Fu smiled slightly and said: "However, everything cannot be rigid. Crossing the river by feeling for the stones is a good strategy. If you want to innovate, you have to take some risks.
Well, let's divide the recruits into two groups, one group will be organized according to the old method, and the other group will be organized according to the method you mentioned.
Three months later, the two teams of recruits competed to see whose soldier had better military discipline and stronger combat power. The recruits would be trained according to whose method in the future.
This may be the best way to test this method!”
Yue Huzhu was overjoyed, bowed and said: "I promise not to disappoint the general!"
Huyan Tieyi joked from the side: "Hey, Lao Yue, don't be in a hurry to thank the general. Whether it's successful or not, you have to pass my Huyan test first in three months!"
Yue Huzhu smiled proudly at Huyan Tieyi and said, "Old Tie, after three months, I promise to convince you that you have lost. Just wait until you cry in front of the general!"
Everyone looked at each other and laughed.
…
After the matter of recruiting soldiers is resolved, the next tasks are the training of new recruits, the improvement of veterans' individual martial arts skills, and the training of each army's battle formations.
Bai Fu summoned the marching Sima and the main generals under his command to discuss the matter:
Although the newly recruited Jingzhuang warriors have Shaolin martial arts skills, they have never received military training before. The problem they urgently need to solve is to quickly become familiar with the various weapons of the Tang army and master the martial arts skills to kill the enemy on the battlefield.
The elites of the original Anbeiting were all veterans of many battles and had extremely strong combat capabilities. However, their advantages also came with their disadvantages. It was quite difficult for them to further improve themselves and change their inherent bad habits.
The elite members of the Sichuan Gang are all martial arts masters, with solid skills and abundant internal strength. But killing enemies on the battlefield is no better than fighting in the arena, and there is no such thing as running away if you can't defeat them.
What they want to perfect is: when fighting on foot, in a small space, they can still attack and defend, and quickly kill the enemy without relying on moving and dodging; when riding horses into the battle, they can control and protect the horses, unite the man and horse, and break the formation to kill the general.
The focus of training needs to be on teamwork, especially the drills of various battle formations.
When Bai Fu and others were racking their brains on how to start the training, the soldiers rushed into the tent and said anxiously: "General, it's bad. There was a dispute between the Sichuan disciples and the soldiers from Anbeiting in Yanwuping. Push and push.
Shouting, it's about to start a fight."
Private fighting in the army is a serious crime. The person who stirs up trouble may even be sentenced to death.
When the two forces are merging, it is not a good thing no matter which party is hurt.
The generals looked at each other and could see the fear in each other's eyes.
Bai Fu's face darkened, he lifted the curtain and led the generals to the scene of the trouble.
When they arrived at Yanwuping, the emotions of the two parties had reached their peak. There was constant shouting and shouting, and the conflict was about to break out.
Seeing the arrival of the coach and high-ranking military generals, both parties realized that they had gotten into a big trouble and immediately became quiet.
Thousands of people were present on the school grounds in complete silence. The few soldiers who had caused the most violence were uneasy, not knowing what kind of punishment they would face. Those who participated in the trouble calmed down and regretted it endlessly.
Bai Fu looked around the school grounds with cold eyes, and a flash of anger flashed through his eyes. He shouted: "Where is Jun Zheng?"
A dozen soldiers in helmets filed out. Bai Fu pointed at the audience and shouted: "Tie up the person who started the trouble!"
