Jia Ke thought that if a sheep is driven, a group of sheep should be herded. They could just train together. So all the officers in Kaiping Town participated in this training class.

For the first time, Jia Ke made a systematic summary of his combat theory. This combat method focused on modern training and some of the advantages of ancient combat. Although it cannot be said to be perfect, in the current environment, if the training is completed,

The combat effectiveness is still very fierce.

This training did not go very smoothly. These soldiers all came from poor backgrounds. Except for one or two from small landowners like Feng Mo, the others could not read a single word.

Jia Ke gave them lectures every day during the day, and had to memorize the pamphlet written by Jia Ke when he returned home at night. This made these reserve officers extremely miserable.

Even after studying day and night, most people still couldn't memorize the pamphlet. They watched the time pass by day by day. And the news came from the Jiedushi Mansion that the eight thousand troops would arrive in more than ten days.

Now Jia Ke became anxious and began to punish these people corporally. Every morning, he checked the progress of the previous day's study.

Recite the contents of the booklet learned the day before. If you can't recite it, it will be the ten army sticks. And tell them that if they fail to pass the assessment before the recruits arrive, all the positions they are about to be promoted to will be cancelled.

Now under the strict reward and punishment system, everyone has unleashed their greatest potential. Some people study almost non-stop, and those who are slightly literate in Kaiping Weisheng have become popular. They were hired by these people.

After learning to read for almost a month, although these people still could not fully understand the characters in the booklet, they already knew most of the simple words. Moreover, everyone memorized the booklet by heart.

Jia Ke did not require them to have much battlefield tact, as long as they carried out rigid battles according to his regulations. Although they could not train famous generals, they could train a lot of mediocre generals.

Now Jia Ke fights with three axes. At first the archers shoot, then the archers retreat and continue shooting from behind the Macedonian phalanx.

When the archers retreated to the rear, the Macedonian phalanx moved forward to engage the enemy in hand-to-hand combat. With good discipline and a continuous barrage of spears, they defeated the enemy.

The cavalry protected the two square wings of Macedonia, and after the Macedonian phalanx repulsed the enemy, they attacked from both sides to pursue the enemy.

This is all Jia Ke's tactics, and there are two key points in this tactics, which are good discipline and the whole army wearing armor.

Without good discipline, the formation will be disrupted as soon as it rushes.

If the entire army does not wear armor, it will suffer heavy casualties, which will seriously affect morale and reduce combat efficiency.

In ancient battlefields, a formation was formed. Generally, one would have to regroup after taking more than a dozen steps, but Jia Ke required his troops to attack continuously for a mile without any disorder. In this way, whether facing cavalry or infantry, they would have a greater chance of winning.

After nearly a month of theoretical study, almost everyone in this group of officers had received military sticks, even Feng Mo was no exception. In the future assessment, everyone successfully completed the test. After this assault training, these ordinary people could finally

They are said to be junior officers. These people eventually became Jia Ke's initial team, and this training tradition was passed down from generation to generation in Jia Ke's army.

The brainwashing part continues as an important part of improving the will of the soldiers and making the troops more tenacious, which makes Jia Ke's troops remain loyal to him, and there is almost never any betrayal.

On the second day after the training of the officers in Kaiping Town, Jiedushi Wang Tao sent a messenger to tell Jia Ke that the troops had set off and asked him to send someone to respond.

When Jia Ke heard the news, he immediately ordered Zheng Kai to take Baihu, a cavalry group, to respond.

At the same time, Huang Baifeng was ordered to prepare military camps for the new troops. Fortunately, Kaiping Town was originally set up to gather troops to resist the Tatars or attack the grasslands.

At the very beginning of construction, a large number of military camps were built, which was more than enough to store not only 10,000 people, but also 30,000 to 50,000 people.

Now Huang Baifeng only needs to open the closed military camp and clean it carefully, and then he can directly let in the new troops.

At noon on the third day after Zheng Kai left, the cavalry came back to report that the troops in Kaiping Town were no longer fifteen miles away.

As soon as Jia Ke heard this, he immediately ordered that all the officers and soldiers of Kaiping Town lined up outside Kaiping Town to greet him.

Following Jia Ke's order, the entire Kaiping Town started to move. All the troops lined up neatly and came out of the military camp. They shouted slogans and walked out of the city gate with goose steps.

According to the opposing formations, the crossbowmen were in front, and in the Macedonian phalanx, the cavalry was behind.

The formation of two thousand people was uniform, and their footsteps sounded like drums. Every step they took hit a certain point. The team arrived three miles outside the city before forming a formation near the official road.

Jia Ke was at the front of the team. Huang Baifeng and Feng Mo were riding on either side of Jia Ke. Everyone looked forward and remained motionless.

Let’s talk about the commander He Tong who led the troops to Kaiping Town this time. This time, he was ordered by Jiedushi Wang Tao to command these soldiers transferred from various places and send them to Kaiping Town.

The commander, He Tong, was quite capable. Although he was marching within the territory, he also sent the exploration horses out for more than ten miles.

After walking for three days, he received a report from the scouting horse, "Your Majesty, we found a pair of cavalry ahead. We contacted him and they said they were cavalry coming from Kaiping Town to meet them."

He Tong immediately ordered: "Order the officers he leads to come and meet us."

Soon He Tong saw a pair of cavalry coming on the road. This pair of cavalry looked different. Although they were cavalry, during the march, they were also four cavalry in a row, with the same distance from front to back, and the cavalry were neatly spaced.

uniform.

The commander He Tong was shocked when he saw this situation. If people were trained to this point, he would believe it. But in front of him, even the horses were so neat, which showed how elite this unit was.

Zheng Kai soon came to He Tong. He dismounted from his horse, knelt down on one leg and hit Qian, and then said: "Zheng Kai, the imperial guard of Qianhu in Kaiping Town, has seen the commander."

He Tong rode on his horse and asked him: "Are you the general who came to meet you on the order of Jia Guard?"

Zheng Kai continued to kneel there and replied: "Yes, it's a formal humble position."

"Now that you're up, lead the way and be our vanguard."

Zheng Kai replied resoundingly, "I humble my position and respect my destiny."

Zheng Kai got up, returned to his horse, turned over, and said to his horse team: "The front team becomes the rear team, and the rear team becomes the front team. Open the way for the army."

As soon as Zheng Kai finished his instructions, the small group of cavalry immediately changed their formation. The whole group was still neat and fast.

When He Tong saw this situation, he was very impressed. He felt that Jia Ke was indeed worthy of his reputation, whether it was because of his own ability or because the Jia government sent talented people. He had never seen the troops trained like this before.

The troops under his command, not to mention the cavalry, even the infantry, cannot maintain such an orderly formation. Once they take more than a dozen steps in formation, they must form a formation, otherwise they will fall into chaos.

And this group of cavalry has been leading the way, and the formation has remained unchanged without a trace of confusion.

He Tong believed that this was a military art left over from the founding of the People's Republic of China. He admired the generals from the founding of the People's Republic of China. They could train such an army. No wonder they could conquer the world.

In the next few days, He Tong kept talking to Zheng Kai, trying to get the secrets of this art of war. But Zheng Kai remained tight-lipped, talking about him and never answered him directly.

He Tong had absolutely no choice but to get angry and threaten Zheng Kai several times. But these were of no use. Zheng Kai was now loyal to Jia Ke, not to mention a commander. Now the emperor came to see him.
