Chapter 229 Don’t ask the source
After Wu Zheng entered the army, he quickly got used to the life in the army.
After three days of adaptation period, the recruits began intense and rigorous training.
"Open a large formation to face a powerful enemy. Thousands of people line up in a majestic formation. The brave will not be allowed to go first, and the timid will not be left behind.
A bunch of spears are poking at you, a bunch of spears are poking at you, and there is only one person in the army, so you can be invincible in the world."
While supervising the training of the soldiers, Dub Li Zhu explained the way of military formation.
The most important thing for an army in the cold weapon era was strict formation and strict discipline.
The Qin and Han Empires and later the Sui and Tang Empires relied on strict military discipline and training to suppress the surrounding barbarians with a small number of troops.
Naturally, the Han Army in the Western Regions would not relax their requirements for training in this area.
Because they were still in the recruiting stage, Wu Zheng and the others were first trained individually by the uncles from each camp.
After a month, it will be compiled into music again and held for training.
On this day, the new recruit Du Bo brought the people from Wu Zheng's village to the school grounds in Luntai Old City.
After everyone divided into groups and stood up, recruit Du Bo Li Zhu stepped forward.
Li Zhu said: "The second and third sons are all athletes of our Han army now. I have recruited you today to train you in battle formation skills. Now is a good time for a man to seek fame."
But opportunities will only come to those who are prepared. If we want to make great achievements and become generals, we must first practice the ability to eat well...
Only the second and third sons can live well when facing the Huns in the future. Only if they are alive can they be crowned and rewarded.
"My lords...you only get your fame from horses. Only those who can kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds are considered good men!"
Li Zhu looked serious, and all the soldiers subconsciously stood up straighter.
After the training, Li Zhu first asked them to learn to stand in line, turn left and right, walk in unison, run, etc.
These trainings are usually done twice a year, and everyone has already received the same training, so it's not a big problem, it's just that it's more stringent now.
For several days in a row, everyone has been training in formation, but slowly joined the string formation.
During the training, Li Zhu discovered that Su Wen and Wu Zheng were obviously better than others in all aspects.
Therefore, in the subsequent training, the two of them were brought out separately to assist in their own training.
Wu Zheng was also appointed as the corps commander because of this, which made all the new recruits envious.
Li Zhu saw everyone's gaze and asked loudly, "Are you envious?"
Everyone first whispered, "I'm not envious..."
Li Zhu laughed and asked again, "Are you envious?"
This time, everyone agreed loudly, "I'm envious!"
Li Zhu said, "Envy! Envy is right..."
"Since you are envious, give him a good training... Your Majesty has an order, and the commanders of each corps should be appointed by people with outstanding training..."
"Whether the second or third son can become a team leader depends on whether he can do it..."
"You guys, don't underestimate this corps commander. Although this corps commander's position is small, it is the foundation of the Han army."
"Junhou also came all the way from the corps commander back then."
"The princes and princes repay their words, "A strong general must be sent to the army!" The two and three sons should encourage each other..."
After hearing this, everyone was refreshed and trained a lot more carefully.
This is especially true for Wu and Zheng. They not only have to complete the training of ordinary soldiers every day, but also complete additional training.
Although the two felt it was hard, they gritted their teeth and persevered. Sure enough, after getting through the first few days, they gradually felt more relaxed.
Dub Li Zhu also seemed to be interested in cultivating the two of them, and even taught them some of his military training experience in private.
As they became more and more familiar with Li Zhu, both Wu Zheng and Su Fei became curious about Li Zhu.
From the two's point of view, Li Zhuzhi should be more than just a duke with his talent.
After training that day, while taking a break, Su Fei asked directly, "How come Uncle Li is so talented that he is only a first-rate Uncle?"
Li Zhu's face darkened when he heard this, and he couldn't help but sigh.
Wu Zheng stared at Su Fei, but tried to persuade him, "Uncle Du has something unspeakable..."
Li Zhu shook his head, "No, he is not from the Luntai Army!"
When Su Fei heard this, he couldn't help but suddenly said, "Uncle Dub is from the Northern Army?"
When Li Zhu heard this, he looked Su Fei up and down and said, "Yes, a certain person was originally a bodyguard general for the Northern Army..."
Su Fei and Wu Zheng both agreed when they heard this, "With Uncle Du's talent, the Western Region is where you can use your skills... I'm afraid he will be promoted to a high position soon!"
In the following days, Li Zhu spared no effort to teach the two of them.
As the two became more and more familiar with the training methods, Li Zhu gradually gave them the responsibility of training the infantry.
The two have different personalities and therefore different styles. Su Fei has a better temper and will always patiently correct the soldiers' formation mistakes.
Wu Zheng's temper was much more violent. When he was training his soldiers, if someone was not trained in a standardized manner, he would not hesitate to come forward and give him a beating with a stick.
Strangely enough, his method is more effective, and people who have been beaten learn it faster. The soldiers seem to be accustomed to it.
After training like this for half a month, this group of new soldiers finally looked like real Han soldiers, and they were able to maintain a stable formation during the march.
After Li Zhu applied for the assessment, people from Tiqisi were soon sent to assess Wu Zheng and his village.
After a lot of struggling, I finally passed the exam.
Li Zhu was happy and gave everyone a day off.
"Wu Jun, why don't you go out for a walk?"
In the barracks, Su Fei asked Wu Zheng
Wu Zheng shook his head and asked, "Why does Su Junnai stay in the camp?"
Su Fei spread his hands and said, "There is nothing I can do. Sister, please don't let me run around. I'm afraid someone will be sent to check the post soon..."
When Wu Zheng heard this, he felt funny and said, "Su Jun is actually afraid of my sister..."
Su Fei smiled and said, "It's not that I'm afraid, I just don't want to cause trouble to my sister!"
While the two were talking, a voice came from outside the barracks.
Su Fei said, "I think a certain sister sent someone here..."
As he spoke, he walked towards the barracks door.
He opened the door, and sure enough there was a soldier at the door.
Su Fei had a conversation with the soldier, and the soldier left some food and wine and left.
Upon seeing this, Wu Zheng looked at Su Fei thoughtfully, secretly guessing Su Fei's true identity.
"Wu Jun, come quickly and try the delicious food my sister sent..."
At this time, Su Fei ran in happily carrying a large food box.
"How about inviting Uncle Li to come with us!" Wu Zheng suggested.
Su Fei said, "That's fine. Wu Jun will wait for a moment and come back as soon as he goes!"
After saying that, Su Fei ran out. Wu Zheng couldn't help but shook his head. Su Fei was fine, but he acted like a big boy from time to time.
Not long after, Su Fei dragged Li Zhu back to the barracks.
Su Fei shouted, "Wu Jun, please hurry up and put the food and wine on the table!"
Wu Zheng smiled and opened the food box, only to see four dishes he had never seen before in the food box, as well as a bottle of wine.
Li Zhu's eyes lit up at this moment, "It's actually stir-fried vegetables. This is a rare treat!"
At this time, Li Zhu had doubts about Su Fei's identity.
