Three Kingdoms, at the beginning of the game, recognize the thief as the father, hit the spectacle,

It's just that seeing that mighty and majestic soldier lined up neatly in front of him now, he can't help but recall the past years when he fought Huangfusong near Julu.

His eyes gradually became softer. Looking at the expressions on the faces of the soldiers, Pei Yuanshao also found that compared to the past, after more than half a month of training, the immature expressions on the faces of many young soldiers have disappeared. It has gradually faded.

After putting on neat armor and stepping on the mighty long sword, this army composed of peasants, soldiers and yellow turban soldiers has also developed a trace of its own unique power.

Pei Yuanshao, who had honed his military career for several years, naturally knew that although this kind of power might seem inconspicuous now, it was due to the fact that soldiers in the barracks had gradually integrated into each other through long-term living and training together. for an overall performance.

After long-term training and combat, this kind of power gradually transforms into a commanding style, and it will be like a military soul, spontaneously passed on from generation to generation in the replacement of old and new military camps.

Chapter 8 It is human nature to form gangs

When he thought that he had become the commander of the army in front of him, even Pei Yuanshao, who had been careless since he was a child, couldn't help feeling a little emotional in his heart.

……

In the past few days, since Zhang Yan expanded the number of soldiers under his command to 2 people, whether it is a general of the Chinese army like Yang Feng Hanxian or a fierce general like Pei Yuanshao, they have more or less obtained command of some armies.

Unlike Yang Feng and others who are responsible for training and planning the training mission of 1 cavalry, because Pei Yuanshao's character and combat style are more inclined to the frontal battlefield, Zhang Yan also hesitated for a while, and then sent the [-] cavalry to the frontal battlefield. Two thousand sword and shield fighters were all under the opponent's command and became the direct troops of Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang.

At present, except for the 1 cavalry assigned to Yang Feng and the [-] longbowmen directly under Xu Huang, the remaining [-] people Pei Yuanshao can be said to have the right to mobilize them.

And even without counting the 9000 soldiers directly under Zhou Cang as an adjutant, among the remaining soldiers, there are a full [-] people directly under Pei Yuanshao's command, and he is responsible for arranging the daily training of these soldiers.

Unlike Yang Feng or Xu Huang, who were born in the local aboriginal tyrants, or who were both civil and military, because Pei Yuanshao was born as a farmer, he had no experience in leading troops to train at all.

Under such circumstances, he, who took over the command of the 1 soldiers from Zhang Yan, naturally put a lot of effort into how to lead the troops.

In the early years, when Zhang Jue was following the crusade against the Han Dynasty, although Pei Yuanshao was also a general who led the army independently and was also one of the various commanders of the Yellow Turban, he only had to follow Zhang Jiao's instructions and lead the army. He led a group of Yellow Turban brothers under him to rush around, so there was no major problem.

But now, after suddenly changing the yellow scarf under his hands into a formal soldier team, the defects in military training brought about by his birth were quickly exposed on Pei Yuanshao.

During this period of time, in order to train the yellow turban soldiers who had not fought any tough battles or even fought any decent wars into a decent army, Pei Yuanshao was not asking Yang Feng and others about their experience in leading troops, It is with the help of Zhou Cang and others to study the knowledge of military art that is quite obscure to him.

But hard work pays off, after more than ten days of research and practice, Pei Yuanshao, who can't read a few big characters, really found a method of leading troops that suits him.

Looking at the reborn soldiers in front of him, although Pei Yuanshao knew that they were not too powerful at the moment, at least in terms of military appearance and discipline, the soldiers were no longer working under Du Yuan's hands. The casual and leisurely attitude at that time.

If his estimate is correct, as long as he trains for a period of time according to the method he has found out, these soldiers may not be able to match those masters who have been trained in individual combat effectiveness, but in terms of overall combat effectiveness. It is also able to match one or two.

Sighing slightly, to be honest, after taking over more than 1 sword and shield fighters from Zhang Yan's command, the biggest and most serious problem that Pei Yuanshao encountered was that these sword and shield fighters origins vary.

Among the 1 people, about 8000 were descendants of the Yellow Turbans from various places, while the remaining 4000 were mostly rural strongmen and wandering warriors recruited by Zhang Rang from the Sili territory.

Leaving aside the natural incompatibility of character and ideological antagonism between the local soldiers and bandits, the Yellow Turbans alone are vaguely distinguishing three types of warfare: the "Original Sect", the "Hedong Sect" and the "Taiyuan Sect". There are three factions with very different styles, and their own life styles are also completely different.

And the competition and exclusion among these three factions brought a lot of difficulties to Pei Yuanshao's military training.

Among these factions, the Veteran Sect is the Yellow Turban who followed the great virtuous teacher Zhang Jiao to resist the tyranny of the Han court around the first year of Zhongping. Although they are the smallest in number among the three factions, they But they are all from simple and simple backgrounds, and they have not done anything bad. It can be said that whether it is military discipline or combat bravery, they are far superior to those of the Hedong and Taiyuan factions.

At the same time, because these people have been following Pei Yuanshao, Zhou Cang and others to make a living, facing Pei Yuanshao, who was once the former commander of the Yellow Turban, they are often more willing to obey orders and are more obedient. It can be said that among these soldiers The best type of people to get along with.

It's just a pity that the number of Yellow Turbans of the Veteran Sect is too small, so there is no too much noise among the Yellow Turbans.

Compared with these more obedient soldiers, the surrender of the other two factions is much more troublesome.

For those soldiers who joined Zhang Yan's command in the Hedong area, their biggest problem is that their backgrounds are uneven. Some are peasant slaves raised by the landlord class, while some are simply servants of powerful landlords such as the Yang family and the Wei family in Hedong. Because of his background, he didn't approve of Pei Yuanshao as the leader of the crowd.

When Zhang Yan directly led the people before, due to the status gap between the two sides, these people did not have any passive training or passive fighting.But now, after Pei Yuanshao was replaced to lead them, these yellow scarves who had been favored by Yang Feng suddenly began to miss the days when they followed Yang Feng to do their best in the Hedong area.

Unlike these soldiers of the Hedong faction, since most of the soldiers in the Taiyuan area used to work under Du Yuan's hands, the soldiers of the Taiyuan faction did not have much opinion on their ability to transfer to Pei Yuanshao's side, and they were willing to Follow some orders from Pei Yuanshao.

It's just that people are lazy.After Du Yuan's subordinates got used to being loose, these soldiers of the Taiyuan faction immediately complained about Zhang Yan's relatively intensive training method, and some officers even took the lead in slacking off.

In order to solve this situation, or to ease the estrangement between soldiers, at the very beginning, Pei Yuanshao, like those generals of the same generation, chose to divide all these soldiers according to their own sources, the same source Divide as many soldiers as possible into one camp, in order to reduce the probability of private conflicts between different soldiers.

But soon, after trying to conduct intensive training for about two or three days like Zhang Yan did at first, the problems among these soldiers gradually broke out.

Chapter 9 Ways to Overcome Your Nature

You know, at the very beginning, among the soldiers under Zhang Yan, there were a thousand fully armed Xiyuan veterans with several years of military experience as the foundation, so under the majesty of these veterans, few Some low-level recruits feel dissatisfied with the orders of the upper-level, and at the same time, everyone will properly complete the training tasks assigned to them.

But now, after returning to Luoyang, all the 1 Xiyuan veterans returned to the Xiyuan school captain Jian Shuo because of the transfer of Zhang Yan's position. Among them, most of the officers at the rank of ten commanders and centurions were temporarily selected from the soldiers below.

If these soldiers were from the same origin, or had lived together in the same environment for a long time, then that would be fine. After all, after mutual recognition, the soldiers would not intentionally block their superiors.

And under the atmosphere of mutual repulsion and hostility among the three factions at the beginning, the disadvantages of this grassroots officer's inability to subdue the soldiers were quickly exposed.

……

"Why can those Taiyuan people be lazy, but we have to train under such a sun, and we have to rest!"

"Why can those people from Hedong eat half an hour before us? I've seen it all. Their meat is more than ours!"

"Why do we, the older generation of yellow scarves, accept the command of those new recruits? We are the veterans who have fought with Zhang Tianshi, and we are the ones who command them if we want to become officers!"

It's as if good habits are difficult to form, but bad habits can be quickly contagious. Soon, under this training method, the former soldiers' mutual repulsion suddenly evolved into a strong sense of resentment and even is hostility.

Along with this rebellious behavior, the laziness among the soldiers and their rejection of hard work spread throughout the camp.

Conscience of heaven and earth, Pei Yuanshao, who asks why each one of them, can be said to be dizzy, and sometimes even when his blood surges, he can't help but want to punch the upper and lower stabbed twice, and tell the other party why?Relying on power is truth.

But when some voices of opposition began to appear among the veterans who were the most obedient and most cooperative with Pei Yuanshao's training, Pei Yuanshao understood that he had to find a way to make changes.

Looking for Xu Huang?

Pei Yuanshao shook his head.

For Xu Huang, who is proficient in military training, it is definitely not too difficult to solve this problem, but Xu Huang is now sent by Zhang Yan to Bingzhou to purchase cavalry mounts, so naturally some distant waters cannot save nearby fires.

To find Zhou Cang or Yang Feng?

Pei Yuanshao shook his head again.

Maybe the other party is in this big camp at the moment, and I can learn something from the exchanges between the two sides, but since Yang Feng and Zhou Cang can bring such soldiers, even if the things returned from these exchanges are useful for training soldiers, But it is definitely difficult to solve these problems that Pei Yuanshao is now encountering.

Seeing that the conflicts among the soldiers under his command became more and more serious day by day, Pei Yuanshao was like sackcloth on a hot pot, and he looked like he couldn't eat well or sleep well.

Just when he secretly felt a little helpless, when he went to the city to buy equipment a few days ago, the elder son of the Mi family who met behind Zhang Yan gave him a fairly reliable suggestion.

……

"How to train soldiers? Don't ask me, I'm just a bad businessman, how can I know how to train soldiers..."

"Didn't you say that when you met Mr. Zhang Yan, you used to be very envious of the quality of the soldiers under the other party? Then why don't you just ask Zhang Yan? He is your own master. If you don't ask him, why do you ask me?" ..."

……

He said to Pei Yuanshao in a daze, that night, maybe he was really tired of being questioned by Pei Yuanshao who was in a hurry to go to the doctor. Mi Fang, who had become silent when she came to the barracks before, gave Pei Yuanshao got an idea.

I don't know if it was because of Pei Yuanshao's meat ration that week. Although Mi Fang's tone was a bit copious this time, this suggestion was quite reliable, and it also gave Pei Yuanshao, who was anxious at the beginning, a feeling of enlightenment.

Soon, in order to resolve this matter as soon as possible, Pei Yuanshao contacted Zhang Yan who had just married in Luoyang City through the quartermaster who delivered food to the military camp in Luoyang City every day.

Later, with the help of Zhang Yan, a method that was somewhat novel but extremely suitable for Pei Yuanshao was applied by him in the training of his soldiers.

……

"What? How do you train soldiers? I'm familiar with this!"

Recalling the scene when he met Zhang Yan in the city, Pei Yuanshao still remembered that it seemed to be an extremely hot afternoon.

……

On that afternoon, he went to Zhang Yan's home to visit his lord Zhang Yan at an appointment, and at the same time, he accidentally ran into him having lunch with his mistress Qiao Ying while they rubbed each other's ears.

Unlike what Pei Yuanshao was worried about, after being bumped into by him, Zhang Yan didn't look embarrassed. He just sat cross-legged on the cushion and hugged Qiao Ying, allowing himself to describe what problems he encountered during this period. Why do you want to come to see yourself in such a hurry.

There was no embarrassment in seeing the other party. Pei Yuanshao also adjusted his mentality as soon as possible, and then described to Zhang Yan what he had done in the past few days, and at the same time asked Zhang Yan for his opinions on military training. .

As Mi Fang said, soon, after understanding where the problem was, Zhang Yan dipped his finger in fine wine to write and draw on the table, and at the same time offered Pei Yuanshao, who was a little frustrated at the beginning, some possible solutions. Scenarios to try.

……

"First of all, your biggest problem is grouping these soldiers into categories. That's not solving the problem, it's just slowing down the problem."

Gently tapping the table with his fingers, Zhang Yan's first suggestion to Pei Yuanshao was to disperse all the soldiers regardless of their origin, so as to ensure that soldiers from different origins could be found in each barracks.

In this way, the running-in and recognition of these soldiers is accelerated in their common life and common training.

You know, the barracks is not a complete society, let alone the United States of America.The "Hedong Camp" and "Taiyuan Camp", which are artificially set up like "black districts", not only cannot erase the sense of disparity between soldiers, but will instead stimulate the probability of conflicts among these bottom-level soldiers.

And to match it, there are naturally strict military discipline and execution standards.

Chapter 10 Ready to go

"Maybe you don't quite understand what I'm talking about now, but you can write down these requirements, follow them first, and understand the effect of doing so in the process of implementation."

He explained softly to Pei Yuanshao, and not long after, Zhang Yan gave the other party a series of suggestions, and then drove the other party back to the barracks from his home after making sure that Pei Yuanshao had fully remembered it.

……

"First! Mix all the soldiers and randomly divide them into barracks. Any private conflicts will be reported to the upper-level officers for coordination and resolution. Those who fight privately will be criticized publicly or dismissed from the military if they are serious."

"Second! Public criticism and praise can't just stay on paper, but must be put into practice. Soldiers who perform well in training are given priority in the allocation of weapons and equipment. Soldiers who violate military discipline and are lazy in training should increase their training after criticism. , until the other party never commits another crime.”

"Thirdly, establish the concept of equality in the army. Officers and soldiers are one body. Both meritorious service and demerits are equally punished. Daily training must also be carried out together. You must not have any privileged behavior just because you are an officer!"

……

Secretly repeating Zhang Yan's request in his heart, Pei Yuanshao strictly implemented the three rules soon.

At the same time, with some adjustments to the regulations, he also found some slight differences in his daily training.

First of all, after all the soldiers were dispersed, there were indeed more fights in the first two or three days, but after Pei Yuanshao became ruthless and found and fired several soldiers through the newly formed inspection team, the whole The atmosphere in the barracks was one of unity, and no soldier or grassroots officer dared to vent their dissatisfaction by violating military regulations.

After all, it is different from those local soldiers who join the army purely for the sake of the tax exemption policy and will escape from the army if they have the opportunity. Since Zhang Yan’s internal treatment in the barracks is very high, it is almost impossible for these ordinary people who cannot afford to be expelled from the army to be expelled from the army. A taboo that I absolutely do not want to touch.

After that, as the weapons and equipment were gradually in place, in order not to hold back their comrades in arms, those soldiers also spontaneously increased their training intensity, for fear that due to their own reasons, the military camp they were in would be in the middle of the entire camp. The sequence in the middle was lowered, and he even put himself in a state of being targeted by everyone.

This kind of control over people's hearts can be said to be a brand-new method that Pei Yuanshao has never seen or even heard. Even if he has not received any enlightenment education, he can mobilize the entire military camp through easy and mechanized behavior. enthusiasm.

It can be said that after training to this stage, the problems that Pei Yuanshao encountered before can be said to be easily solved, but such a change obviously cannot cause such a huge change in this team within half a month.

And this third provision is like a booster, not only stimulating the positive atmosphere of the entire army, but also ensuring that the first two provisions can be implemented in this army in a long-term and stable manner.

"Well, the officers are equal, the rewards and punishments are the same, it is so simple to say, but after hundreds of years and thousands of years have passed, which army has ever done it besides the current army?"

I sighed secretly in my heart, if the first two regulations only solved the problems that Pei Yuanshao had encountered before, then the point of equality between officers and soldiers is that the previous soldiers from different sources and different backgrounds were truly mixed and smelted together , no longer fighting on their own as before.

It's just that although this kind of behavior is simple, in the past so many years, even in the history of the Han Dynasty for 400 years, no army has ever done it, so there is no army like Zhang Yan's now General soldiers, in just a dozen days, they gradually got together.

If Zhang Yan heard Pei Yuanshao's emotions at this moment, he might not be able to help but add a sentence in front of the other party. It's not the 400 years of this big man, but the [-] years of the whole of China. There has never been this kind of equality between officers and soldiers. The situation arises.
