Seeing that the old man didn't speak, Wang Can continued: "Please rest assured, there are thousands of people present, and they also bear the hatred of the dead. Countless people died at the hands of the Rhodes City army. The soldiers in the army will take care of themselves."
all of these."
"The vengeance of your old relatives and the vengeance of the dead people will be repaid one by one."
"You will not help anything if you stay in the army."
"Instead of doing this, it is better to quit and do some logistics and supply work. Those of you who quit do not mean that there is nothing to do. Fighting on the front line is revenge, and being responsible for logistics and supply in the rear is also revenge."
"Everything you do is revenge."
Wang Can said: "Old man, please believe me, believe the city lord, and believe what is happening here."
After hearing this, the old man choked up.
Big tears flowed from his eyes and flowed down his cheeks full of grooves. The old man choked and said: "Commander, I am out in line. I believe in the soldiers in the army. I believe in you."
Wang Can said: "Other elderly people who are over the age, please come out and don't ask me to name them one by one."
As Wang Can opened his mouth, another group of old people stood up.
Wang Can took a closer look and roughly estimated that there were nearly 2,000 old men who had stepped forward. There were 8,000 new recruits in total, which was a one-time decrease of 2,000, or a quarter of the number.
Although there are fewer people, Wang Can doesn't feel it has any impact. Wang Can values quality, not quantity. A group of sheep can't even top up a lion, so he prefers to keep the elite.
Wang Can looked at the remaining six thousand people.
The picture that caught my eye, although there were no old people, there were still young people with sallow faces and thin muscles.
These teenagers are too young.
When such people go to the battlefield, it is impossible to stop the enemy, and they can only kill people.
Wang Can said loudly: "Children under the age of twelve, all come out and fight to the right. You are also like the old man just now. Don't think about staying in, because if you stay, someone will have to take care of you. You are alone.
After coming out, he will still stay in the army as an auxiliary, responsible for transporting grain, weapons, etc."
As Wang Can's order was issued, the children stood up one by one.
Nearly a thousand children came forward.
Wang Can looked at nearly 3,000 old and weak people, and reorganized this group of people to be responsible for logistics and transportation. Nowadays, the army lacks a large number of soldiers. The old and weak people who have been eliminated cannot go to the front line, but they can transport grain and grass and be responsible for burying pots and cooking.
Food and other things.
Wang Can arranged for someone to take charge, and asked him to take the old and the weak away.
The remaining five thousand people stood proudly.
Although there are also weak people among this group of people, at least they are no longer a weak army and at least have a certain fighting capacity.
Wang Can continued: "You five thousand people are going to the battlefield. When you get to the battlefield, you have to march forward bravely. You are only allowed to move forward and not retreat. Therefore, if you want to join the army, you must be prepared to be killed."
"If we fight against Rhodes City, the battle will be tragic."
"You must be prepared to be killed."
"I would like to ask you now, who of you regrets quitting? If you quit now, I won't care and will let you quit. But if you go to the battlefield and you retreat without permission, and you are afraid of the enemy, then you are a sinner and the whole of Mai.
The sinners of the city."
There was a stern tone in Wang Can's words.
When talking to the elderly and children before, Wang Can's tone was very gentle, and he even did not hesitate to praise.
But the soldiers in front of me were different.
These will be soldiers who will participate in the war and must be treated strictly without any lethargy.
After Wang Can asked, no one came forward.
All the soldiers had an iron-blooded look on their faces. They joined the army to protect the city of Maiti and their homes. Once their homes were breached, their families would also die in the war. In a certain
To some extent, these soldiers shoulder the expectations of countless people.
Wang Can looked solemn and said: "I will count to three. If no one comes out, then everything will be settled."
"one!"
"two!"
"three!"
When Wang Can counted to three, still no one stood up.
All soldiers have to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy.
Wang Can also showed a look of relief on his face. With such an army that shares the same enemy, even if the number of soldiers is small, even if the soldiers are weak, they dare to fight, then Wang Can will have a way to train the soldiers and make them stronger.
Wang Can continued: "Since no one comes out, everyone will stay. However, when you join the army, your martial arts and your military discipline are all blank. Now, you are not worthy of the title of elite soldier.
It can only be a group of rabble. Because you have not been trained and do not have enough strength. But please don't worry, we will train you so that you have sufficient strength. In the next ten days, there is only one thing we have to train,
That’s running.”
"running?"
When the five thousand soldiers heard this, they were stunned.
Everyone was whispering and discussing, and they didn't understand each other very much.
When they join the army and become soldiers in the army, shouldn't they be issued weapons and then undergo drills? Why do they need to train for running? This kind of training method is beyond everyone's expectations.
Even Haji found it strange.
Haji was once a general in the army and knew how to train troops, but he had never seen the current situation.
Can running train soldiers?
Haji looked at Nibru, only to see that Nibru also shook his head. However, Nibru still chose to believe in Wang Can. Now that he has identified Wang Can, there is only one way to go.
Wang Can listened to the noise and said loudly: "Quiet!"
After everyone heard this, they became quiet again.
No one spoke anymore, all eyes fell on Wang Can, waiting for Wang Can to continue speaking.
Wang Can continued: "Many people started talking about running when they heard about it. Let's put aside for the time being whether running can train soldiers. I want to say one thing first, that is, any order given by me, as soldiers in the army,
, can only obey."
"Soldiers have the duty to obey orders."
"Soldiers, military discipline must be strictly enforced!"
"Soldiers, orders and prohibitions!"
"While I am speaking, if you have any thoughts, please suppress them and are not allowed to speak. This is not only military discipline, but also respect for me. So your performance just now is very disappointing."
Wang Can talked eloquently and first beat the soldiers.
To train this group of soldiers, it is impossible to just show kindness. You must train this group of soldiers and make the soldiers in this army have a sense of awe, otherwise it will be difficult to convince the public.
After everyone heard this, they were ashamed.
No one expected that they would be scolded so severely by Wang Can.
Wang Can continued: "Getting back to the subject, why you need to train for running? The simple reason is to strengthen your muscles and bones. Countless of you have too much physical fitness and need running training."
"Furthermore, once on the battlefield, if the enemy is fierce, we have to retreat. You run and train every day. If you can't kill, you can always win by running! Even if the enemy is defeated and retreats, you have to run to cover up the enemy.
Only by passing the opponent can you cover up the enemy on a large scale. No matter what the situation is, running is a necessary training."
"You are enlisting in the army today. A general will read out the decree to let you know the discipline of the army."
"Have a day off and I will start training early tomorrow morning."
"Everyone's training is treated equally. Especially the training in the morning is related to what you eat at noon. The training in the afternoon is related to what you eat in the evening."
"Everything depends on you."
Wang Can said: "Of course, in addition to running training, there are other trainings, and everything will be carried out slowly. I have already said what needs to be said, and now we are disbanded, and everyone will go to their own areas to familiarize themselves with the situation."
After the soldiers heard this, they dispersed.
After all the soldiers dispersed, Nibru and Haji came to Wang Can's side.
Haji said: "Brother Wang Can, how will you train the soldiers tomorrow morning?"
Nibru also echoed: "Running training can naturally strengthen their bodies. But, just this kind of training, shouldn't they be allowed to touch the knife?"
"With weapons, of course."
Wang Can solemnly said: "It's just that we don't have much time. In addition to weapons, we also have some small skills. I will teach them the battle formation method. After going to the battlefield, three people will form a group and join forces to kill the enemy. Only in this way can we show our full potential.
Maximum lethality. Otherwise, in a one-on-one battle, our numbers cannot compare with Rhodes City, and we will be easily defeated."
Nibru said: "Now that the military advisor has made detailed arrangements, I will not get involved. If you need any help, just ask the military advisor and I will do my best to satisfy you."
Wang Can smiled and said: "Now, there is indeed something that the city lord needs to arrange."
"What's the matter?" Niblo asked.
Wang Can said: "The food in the army is mostly bread. Such bread is suitable as dry food, but it is not nutritious. To provide soldiers with sufficient nutrition, meat buns and steamed buns are needed."
"What are meat buns? What are big steamed buns?" Nibru blinked with a puzzled look on his face.
Two foods that Nibru had never heard of.
Haji's eyes lit up and he asked: "Brother Wang Can, are meat buns and steamed buns foods invented by the Kingdom of Shu?"
"yes!"
Wang Can smiled and nodded.
Nibru said: "Military advisor, how do you need my cooperation?"
Wang Can said: "Please ask the city lord to immediately prepare wheat and grind it into flour. From today on, the army will need a lot of flour. In addition, we will recruit a few more talented cooks and I will teach them how to make meat buns and steamed buns."
."
"no problem!"
Nibru agreed directly without even thinking about it.
Haji asked: "Brother Wang Can, how do these meat buns and big steamed buns taste?"
Wang Can said: "Although they are supplied to soldiers, these two foods are definitely human delicacies. At least, there is no such delicious food in Maiti City now. You have never been to Shu, and you don't know that Shu has too many delicacies.
"
When Haji heard this, he immediately became interested and said, "Brother Wang Can, can you do it?"
Wang Can smiled and said: "Most of them can."
Haji said: "In that case, when brother Wang Can is free, he must make some and let me have a taste."
"Ahem..."
Nibulu coughed twice and interrupted: "Commander, I will dispatch the cooks right away. You first teach them how to make meat buns and steamed buns."
