The whole Jizhou was in chaos. Both Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang were mobilizing troops frequently. Lu Zhi and Yuan Shao were even more busy after receiving the order from Emperor Ling. Fortunately, Lu Zhi had the support of the imperial court. , border guards from various places can be mobilized to expand their troops. Although their combat power is a bit low, they can be trained. In addition, Gongsun Zan has gained the upper hand in the battle with Wuwan in Youzhou, and can continuously transport war horses to Lu Zhi. When the war is over, Gongsun Zan can also return troops to support Lu Zhi. After more than half a year of fighting, Gongsun Zan has trained an elite cavalry that can fight the nomads head-on on the battlefield. The riding and archery skills are no longer on those horses. Among them, Gongsun Zan selected three thousand of the bravest men, all of whom were given white horses. They were known as white horse followers. They were really roaring like the wind, and their combat power was explosive! As for Yuan Shao, it was a bit miserable. In the last battle, the major families in Yecheng lost many private soldiers. Although Yuan Shao conquered many civil servants and generals, the Yuan family was very disappointed with him and blamed him for his incompetent use of troops, which resulted in In order to protect the security of the Yuan family's territory, Yuan Shaona's family soldiers were transferred away. As a result, Yuan Shao only had more than 20,000 elite soldiers left, so he had to recruit troops from Jizhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yanzhou and other places. Recruiting more troops will provide Zhang Liang with the conditions for fighting, but Yuan Shao has more generals. The two sides have fought many times, and no one has taken advantage!

The Wei family in Hedong, a long-established family in the Han Dynasty, had two important figures in the family during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che. One was Queen Wei Zifu, and the other was General Wei Qing. The Wei family also began to develop from that time on. It continues to this day, but the descendants of later generations are not good enough, which has led to the current decline. Now there are several aristocratic families in Hedong. The Wei family, which was all-powerful in the past, now has to rely on others to help them. With the proliferation of Yellow Turbans everywhere, aristocratic families are everywhere. Preparing for the battle, the Wei family's life became even more difficult, but fortunately Hedong was in Bingzhou, so it was relatively safe.

"Brother, you must study hard when you go on a study tour this time. I'm still waiting for you to come back and teach me!" A child of thirteen or fourteen said to an older one.

"Zhongdao, you are much smarter than me. This time I went out to study with Mr. Cai, but I learned a lot. When you grow up in a few years, I will take you with me!" Wei Qi said with a smile, Wei Jian was very satisfied with his younger brother. Despite his young age, he was proficient in poetry, poetry, and poetry, and he was considered a well-known talent in the local area. However, the Wei family was engaged in business during his generation. In his own generation, the two brothers People like to read and are not interested in family business, which makes their parents happy and sad at the same time.

"Haha, brother, you have to work hard. Don't let me catch up. After all, I am a great talent here!" Wei Zhongdao said deliberately. After all, this is parting. It's really not easy to be in such a mess everywhere now. I wonder if I can see this big brother in the future. Although Bingzhou is quite safe now, many Yellow Turbans have fled here recently. Wei Zhongdao remembers that there were several waves of people coming to his house to ask for food. Every time They all gave them things to send away. Thinking of this, Wei Zhongdao suddenly coughed, his throat felt sweet, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"Second brother, what's your health?" Wei Jian was worried for a while. Although his younger brother became famous at a young age, his health has always been poor. The world is so chaotic now. How can it be better? I heard that there is a famous doctor in Changshan. It seems that he has to go to Changshan. One trip.

"Brother, don't worry. I've been like this since I was a child. I'm used to it. I'm used to this vomiting!" In order to reassure the eldest brother, Wei Zhongdao deliberately said casually,

"Okay! You'd better take care of yourself. I won't go and say goodbye to my parents this time. You should also try to persuade my father not to be so tired. When I see Mr. Cai, I will invite him to Changshan. I heard that there There is a medical sage, and your illness will be cured by then!" After Wei Jin finished speaking, he patted Wei Zhongdao on the shoulder, and then left gracefully. Watching his eldest brother walking away, Wei Zhongdao suddenly felt sad. He felt like this was the last time he saw his eldest brother. No one understood his physical condition better than him. Although he had coughed up blood before, he was not like this. It's amazing. I probably won't live long. I just hope that my parents won't be so sad by then.

"Kill!" Bu Jie, who was fleeing to Yingchuan, finally found a suitable opportunity, caught the Han army off guard, and killed the Han army's grain transport team. After questioning, he learned that this place is not far from Xuanyuan Pass, and Bu Jie There was a burst of ecstasy in my heart, just flow around here. This Xuanyuan Pass is between Yingchuan and Luoyang. It is the only place where the Han army transports food. As long as you plan well here, you will definitely be able to live a good life. Thinking of this, do you really want to give yourself a double click? clatter! But now we have just robbed a lot of food, and many Han troops have escaped. Maybe officers and soldiers will chase them soon. Now is not the time to be happy. If something goes wrong, it will be extremely happy and sad!

"Hurry up and take away these grains, clothes, flags and weapons! Just throw these corpses here!" Bu Yi ordered loudly, and at the same time he was satisfied with the camp he chose. He actually found it. A very large cave. There is a lot of space inside this cave. The several small holes connected to it can fit a thousand people of mine. The big hole is just used to store supplies, but the entrance of the cave is very small. It can just pass two people. I went alone, and it was very hidden. If the Han army came to attack, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to find it. Even if they could find it, as long as they guarded the entrance of the cave, no one could get in!

"General, we have fought several times, and we already have a lot of supplies. We are not short of food, clothing, and supplies, but..." A soldier next to him stopped talking.

"It's just what, if you have something to say, say it quickly, if you have something to say, let it go!" Bu was already enjoying his obscenity when he was interrupted by this soldier, and he was not happy at that time.

"Here, brothers, we have been out for so many days and we have never eaten meat. General, do you think you want us to go to the city to find some prostitutes?" The man said sheepishly.

"Damn it, you bastard, you think about this every day." Bu was very speechless, but judging from everyone's expressions, they must all want to go, "Listen carefully, who are we? How can the Yellow Turban Rebels, who are doing justice for heaven, be prostitutes? Remember it all, we can only rob! Now, go back and put your things away, and then go out to find out the news and look at the nearby towns. How many villages are there? When the time comes, I will take you to have a good time!" Bu Ji said loudly. As soon as these words came out, everyone's mood was high, and they seemed to work more efficiently. As time went by, the villages near Xuanyuan Pass suffered. Many villagers were killed, their belongings, food, and women were robbed. Dead bodies and burned houses were everywhere. This caused a huge sensation in Yingchuan. Zhu Jun was furious about this and sent troops to clear out but found nothing. He had to vent his anger on Bo Cai, who kept scolding him!

"Mr. Xu, who do you think is responsible for this tragedy in Yingchuan?" Zhang He, who had not been around for a long time, asked Xu Shu for advice. Now his number has increased to more than 15,000 people, but it is all thanks to Mr. Xu. Not only did he conquer many Yellow Turbans, he also conquered a lot of common people. The newly recruited 7,000 people were divided into different units according to their personalities and abilities, so that they could adapt to actual combat training and be drawn out at every turn to attack. The forces of the aristocratic family sometimes attack the Yellow Turban Army, and sometimes Xu Shu even wants to capture Hangu Pass!

"Haha, who else could be there? I think it's the Yellow Turban Army who are wandering from all over the country! Send someone to search carefully to see where they are staying. Judging from their methods and specifications, there should be no more than three of them. Thousands of people!" Xu Shu said with a smile. At the same time, he was thinking about whether he could make good use of this group of people and let them destroy a few aristocratic families. After thinking about it, he gave up the idea. After all, it was too unrealistic!

"General Zhang, now our goal of training troops has been achieved. After destroying this troublesome Yellow Turban Army, we should go back. The current situation in Jizhou is unpredictable. We can't miss it. We don't have much money in Yingchuan. But if you catch it, you better go back!" In fact, Xu Shu understood that if he didn't go back, the matter of pacifying the Yellow Turbans would have nothing to do with him. This was a good time to accumulate military merit. It would be better if he didn't go to war in Yingchuan. If he did, It will give people a handle and give them an excuse.

"Okay! Just follow your instructions, sir!" Zhang He didn't have many ideas, as long as he could go to the war. After all, after so many days of training and lurking, Zhang He found that he was actually a fanatical war fighter. As long as he could go to the scene, he would be fine. Can! After the two discussed, they sent troops to gather information around Xuanyuan Pass, and even laid an ambush in the villages that had not suffered yet, just waiting for these people to show up.

Cheng Feng and Zhang Liao, who were far away in Changshan, were a little worried now. As soon as they heard that they were going to go out for actual combat training, all the soldiers signed up enthusiastically and rushed to go, just like students going to the canteen to grab food. Every second counts. Don't give in to each other. "Lord, do you think this can increase the number of people? After all, five thousand people are too few!" Zhang Liao said with some hope. There are now nearly one hundred thousand troops in Changshan, and only five thousand have gone out. It is indeed not many. .

"It's quite a lot. You must know that this is actual combat training. I want to train them in fire prevention skills first, so there can't be more. This is already the limit, otherwise unnecessary injuries will easily occur. This time I will select the most elite soldiers. , give them the knowledge of fire prevention first, and then take a few of Mr. Zhang’s disciples along with you, which can be considered as letting them practice it!" Cheng Feng thought for a while and said, after all, this is a fire drill for future generations, and he can now There is no fire truck. If someone gets burned, suffocated or something, it will be more of a loss than a gain.

"Okay, let's do this for now. Let's wait until this batch is trained before we talk about the next batch!" Zhang Liao thought about the same thing. He shouldn't be too anxious about everything. After all, he can't eat hot tofu, unless he is not afraid of being burned!

"Also, you ask the generals to go to Changshan Academy. I will personally give them lessons and teach them some basic common sense and skills, and then let them go back and teach them to the soldiers in each battalion. The soldiers recruited in the future must not only be able to fight , and you must be able to save yourself, only then can you be considered a qualified soldier!" Cheng Feng felt that it was better to popularize theoretical knowledge, so that they know how to do it first, and then practice it, which will get twice the result with half the effort!

"Well, my lord, this is a good idea, why don't you just take them with you to practice!" Zhang Liao said suddenly, after all, he was not good enough to let himself practice fighting in such a fire! If you mess up again, it will be embarrassing. You have never lost a battle on the battlefield, but you are weak in training. That is really nonsense!

"I just formulate big policies and plans, and the specific implementation depends on you generals and captains! So, training must still be your business, but the method must be changed. You can't just stand there and wave your weapons a few times every day. It's troop training. What I want are soldiers who can fight alone, not soldiers who lose their command and don't know what to do! You first follow my arrangements and try these five thousand elites first!" Cheng Feng said.

According to Chengfeng's request, Zhang Liao sent people to prepare some strange equipment in advance. In addition to the commonly used stone locks and wooden stakes, there were also some odds and ends, but they were all quite heavy, and there were some climbing equipment. Wall, large swimming pool, ladder, single and parallel bars, iron net! Seeing such strange things, not only Zhang Liao was speechless, but even the well-informed Tian Yu didn't understand what Cheng Feng was going to do! At this time, everyone was a little nervous and excited. After all, this was the first time to train like this. Usually everyone would lift stone locks, drive wooden stakes, practice their strength, and then rehearse a few formations. When it comes to large-scale operations, It can improve the survival rate. As for the quality of individual soldiers, it is nonsense. If the quality of individual soldiers is good, they are all generals! Just when everyone was nervous and excited, Cheng Feng walked over casually wearing armor.

"All the troops gather!" Zhang Liao shouted, just like thundering in peace. Usually Zhang Liao is serious and dignified, and he carries a heavy weight in the hearts of the soldiers. Now when he heard him shouting, everyone stopped whispering and stood in front of the soldiers. posture! Cheng Feng wanted to train them according to modern standards. Now that they were standing in a military posture, he didn't say much. He squinted and watched. This station lasted for half an hour. When Feng saw that many people had obviously begun to tremble in their legs and had stars in their eyes, he smiled and said, "Not bad, not bad, but it's still not good enough. Look at your General Zhang Liao. There has been no change from the beginning to now." , and more importantly, General Zhang will show you how to train next!" After Cheng Feng finished speaking, he gave Zhang Liao a look.

Zhang Liao, who was wearing casual clothes, walked directly to the stone lock without saying a word. He used both hands to lift a twenty-five-pound stone lock. He lifted it up and down for fifty rounds, then drove three wooden stakes in a row, and carried three more on his back. The ten-pound stone lock ran ten times around the large swimming pool, which was exactly eight thousand meters. When he was done, Zhang Liao took a breath and did one hundred pull-ups on the horizontal and parallel bars, plus another one hundred. After doing these push-ups, Zhang Liao felt a little heavier. He originally thought that he could complete it easily, but now it seems that it is not that easy. Fortunately, he received Cheng Feng's notice in advance and began to practice these secretly half a month in advance. , otherwise today would be a mess! Thinking of this, Zhang Liao took a deep breath, lowered his head under the barbed wire in front, holding a spear in his hand, and climbed over step by step. There were a lot of caltrops on the barbed wire. If you are not careful, you may be injured. Pain is a trivial matter. , the key point is that bleeding is difficult to deal with. There is no doctor to look at you during a war. If you get infected, you will either have your leg amputated or die. Zhang Liao also crawled over carefully. After all, he was wearing casual clothes. If he crawled over, he would be covered in blood. , What a loss of face, but if you wear armor, the training difficulty will increase several times. Zhang Liao crawled over in fear. After he passed, he saw the single-plank bridge set up in Chengfeng. It was required to pass through it at one time without any pause. After passing it, it was swimming, swimming from one side of the swimming pool to that side, and then climbing up with a rope. high wall, and then use a ladder to climb a higher wall. Once these are completed, the next step is the most severe test of crossing the sea of ​​fire. It is said to be a sea of ​​​​fire, but it is actually dozens of large fires, placed in a certain order and orientation. , Zhang Liao knew that the fire was not very dangerous. After all, Cheng Feng would not joke with people's lives. The most dangerous thing was actually the smoke. As long as the smoke was guarded, he could pass. Zhang Liao followed Cheng Feng's instructions and quickly He tore a large piece of his wet clothes and used it to cover his mouth and nose. He bent down and ran over quickly, completing the first practical training in Changshan's history! During the entire process that Zhang Liao completed, Cheng Feng also continued to explain to everyone the function and process of each step, as well as some tips, which would help them get started quickly. In addition, Zhang Zhongjing brought several students here to watch. I am so scared. This is not training. This is harder than going to the battlefield. However, the soldiers trained in this way are all devils. Anyway, I am probably the busiest person now. After all, there will be many in a while. wounded.

Cheng Feng signaled Zhang Liao to take a good rest first, and then he answered a lot of questions for everyone there. Then when no one asked any more questions, he directly asked each of the generals to do it again. Now he could see the difference. It is incomparable to Zhang Liao. Cheng Feng finally lowered the requirements. The number of times for all events was thirty, and everything else remained unchanged. It was still very difficult. Most of the day passed, and there were still not a few people who passed it completely. There were quite a few. Few people were injured, which kept Zhang Zhongjing and others very busy. Cheng Feng is helpless. It seems that the quality of this group of people is really not good. Although they have been recuperating in Changshan for more than half a year, this is the first time they have come into contact with this thing. It is not bad to be able to do this! In the end, Cheng Feng went into battle in person, wearing a suit of armor, and went through all the projects, which made everyone's blood boil with excitement. They really didn't expect that their lord was so powerful. After all, in their eyes, they only knew that Cheng Feng was unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness. , smart and clever. As for his martial arts, that has always been a mystery. Now seeing this, everyone is shocked in their hearts. It seems that this trap is still hiding his clumsiness!

"You just practice like this. Don't be afraid of hardship and tiredness. One more drop of sweat in normal times and one less drop of blood in war! These are for you to save your lives in the future. From now on, the whole army will practice. You five thousand people are I selected them and demonstrated them to you personally in the hope that you can teach your brothers well after you return to camp. The first five thousand people in the army to pass the customs will be organized into the God of War Legion by me. Command and build Changshan's special forces." Cheng Feng looked at the somewhat low morale and said sonorously. After saying this, it caused an earthquake. After all, being able to serve as Cheng Feng's personal soldier is really an infinite honor! Everyone was full of excitement and excitement. After all, they were among the first to be contacted. If they passed, they would become soldiers directly! Thinking of this, everyone is full of expectations and desires!
