early morning.
When the first ray of sunlight rose, Beishan Fort also woke up.
But Zhang Jin woke up earlier.
He had already washed up and practiced a set of boxing and knife skills. After performing another trick and wiping away the sweat.
Over in the kitchen, the aroma is already coming out.
Zhang Jin had breakfast with the two groups of soldiers living in Wu Mansion. The breakfast is very rich, with one egg for each person, a medium amount of meat, a certain proportion of vegetables, and white rice.
Serving as a soldier under Wu Nian was simply a blessing.
However, Bing is worthy of Wu Nian's generosity. Training is never compromised. Everyone is strong and will get stronger.
"Li Sheng. You lead the team to play gongs and drums. Let the soldiers recruited yesterday gather in the north of the city. We will go into the mountains to practice."
Zhang Jin was the first to put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth casually, and ordered.
"Yes." Li Sheng quickly put down his chopsticks and stood up. Then he led his troops, beat gongs and drums, and shouted at Beishan Fort.
The strong men said goodbye to their parents, wives and children, brought knives, leather armor and other items, followed the team, and gathered outside the north city gate.
In addition to them, there were also a large baggage truck.
Zhang Jin led them north into the mountains and started training.
Beishan Fort is too small and does not have a large enough space to train troops. There are fertile fields outside the city, so it is not easy to waste them. Fortunately, there are many mountains and valleys around.
Zhang Jin chose a valley and planned to train his troops there until the Mongols went south and then returned to Beishan Fort.
soon. Zhang Jin took his troops and arrived at the valley. The valley is a good size, with a stream running through it, but it's just overgrown with grass.
"Level the land immediately and set up camp. Remember to alert the snake first and be careful of being attacked. We will start training tomorrow. We will practice every three days, and we will practice more according to the situation. Brothers, don't blame me for being cruel. We don't have much time left. You must become stronger quickly. stand up."
Zhang Jin rode a black war horse with a tall head, glanced around at the more than 200 soldiers, and shouted loudly.
"Yes." The soldiers responded uniformly. The situation has been reported to Wu Nian, and everyone knows what is going on.
Moreover.
Wu Nian has enough prestige, and everyone will do whatever he says.
Can you still not believe Mr. Wu?
Practice.
He was trained like steel and could compete with the Meng Yuan people.
at the same time. The military camp of Beishan Fort was opened again. Wu Nian selected more than a hundred elite soldiers with official names and practiced diligently in the military camp.
The sounds of killing are endless, and the roars are like wolves and tigers.
The soldiers were sweating profusely.
Wang Gui and Zhang Sheng also prepared men between the ages of eighteen and forty in accordance with Wu Nian's orders. There were four to five hundred people.
These strong men do not need to be trained as elite soldiers, as long as they can defend the city.
But it was training every three days, no salary, but enough food.
Li Yong, who is in charge of logistics, sends people to Dingxian every day to purchase fresh eggs, pork, fish, etc.
Wang Gui and Zhang Sheng, like Zhang Jin, found a valley among the mountains south of Beishan Fort. Conduct training.
No need to set up camp, you can go back in the afternoon.
"Brothers. The so-called defense of the city means that you can shoot a bow. Many of you are hunters. The Mongolian people are coming. As long as you are not afraid of death. Just shoot them as rabbits. There are many people on the battlefield, so you can shoot at will. A blind cat meets a dead mouse.”
"The key is not to be afraid of death. Don't let your hands and feet become weak when the time comes, lying on the ground and not daring to move. That will be the end of it."
"Brothers, I won't say much more about the ferocity of the Meng Yuan people. According to what your Lord said, we, the descendants of the Yan Han, wearing Han clothes and clothing, will never succumb to the barbarians."
"For the Beishan Fort behind us, and for our Yanhan. Train hard."
Wang Gui took a deep breath and said loudly. Wu Nian's original four brothers were Li Yong, Wang Gui, Zhang Sheng, and Tieniu.
Li Yong is a veteran, Tieniu is a good soldier with a careless voice, and Wang Gui is weak and sickly. Under Wu Nian's kind treatment, Wang Gui had enough food and drink every day, and his body became as strong as an inflated ball.
The man became stronger and more courageous. Now he has bright eyes and is standing with his sword in hand, looking very imposing. Compared with those who are officials, the small flag and the general flag are much stronger.
"Wang Gui is right. It is everyone's responsibility to defend the countryside. The Meng Yuan people are coming, and we will not rest until death. If we still have a breath, we will do what we do."
Zhang Sheng also helped and said loudly.
"yes."
After hearing what the two men said, the four to five hundred militiamen felt very uplifted and their blood was boiling. They raised their heads and shouted in response.
Although it is a militia, it still needs someone to serve as an official.
Only when there is a head can there be a tail.
The first thing Zhang Sheng and Wang Gui did was to elect the team leader and team leader, that is, the small flag and the general flag.
Let’s take care of the soldiers and officers first. Then there are simple formations, simple punches and kicks. If the Meng Yuan people climbed onto the city wall, they had to fight with their bare hands or with the big bow in their hands.
these techniques.
The most important thing is to shoot an arrow. Just fire the most bows and shoot the most arrows in the shortest time.
On the battlefield, shooting with your eyes closed can kill someone.
The key is to be fast.
Needless to say, lunch can be taken care of with an iron pot and an earthen stove. When the afternoon was almost over, Wang Gui and Zhang Sheng took the exhausted militiamen back to Beishan Fort.
These men must have been as dead as dogs that night, and they had to go to the fields to do farm work the next day.
Practice every three days and relax.
Militia, Wu Nian's family soldiers, serious soldiers.
None of these men are useless, they are all useful. It is a screw under this war machine called Beishan Fort.
Li Yong is in charge of logistics, in addition to purchasing ingredients. He also urged the military craftsmen Wu Nian obtained to forge weapons, bows and arrows, iron armor, etc.
There are also some women who are responsible for making leather armor and war coats.
The entire Beishan Fort has been fully operational and has become a complete war machine.
In the entire Liaodong, there are actually many war machines like Beishan Fort. It's a pity that when people die, everything rots.
At the same time, Wu Nian led Liu Wu, Tieniu, and a team of men into the mountain. Just as he said, you need to use a pair of feet to measure the terrain of Beishan Fort within a radius of fifty miles, and use a pair of eyes to observe the terrain.
Use pen and paper to record the terrain.
Sneak attack and sap.
fight as a guerrilla.
From now on, he will no longer be a reckless Wu Nian, but a slippery Wu Nian.
Slippery or not.
This morning. Wu Nian took Liu Wu, Tieniu and others to Phoenix Mountain where he met Zhang Jin. The place has been abandoned, but the buildings are still there.
Wu Nian came to the big rock where Zhang Jin used to like to sit cross-legged and looked in the direction of Guilong Mountain. My heart is full of emotions.
"Although it seems like a long, long time has passed. In fact, Zhang Jin and I have only known each other for a few months."
Reminiscing about the past.
Climbing Guilong Mountain with bare hands seems like yesterday.
Look forward.
Slaying the dragon with one hand seems not far away.
