Chapter 494 Chapter 0496 and beyond will be discussed later.
The priests were taught literacy and arithmetic, and then the veterans on the battlefield taught them the art of fighting on the battlefield. If Feng Yong dared to say that he had no other ideas, Zhao Yun would dare to seize the team by force on the spot.
"Of course...no, it's for the capital that I rely on."
Feng Yong said helplessly, half-truthfully, "After all, Yiwen and others will always go out to make achievements in the future. When the time comes, they can have their own disciples and soldiers, and they will feel more confident."
Zhao Yun then nodded in agreement, "Subordinate soldiers? That's a good word."
As he spoke, he nodded more vigorously, "So far, it seems that your method is good. The hundreds of people you have now, even the most ordinary soldiers, if they are really experienced in the future, take them out and put them somewhere else." In such a place, even being the commander of a village is an insult to them."
Feng Yong pretended to smile again.
Of course he knew that his soldiers were trained in the direction of grassroots cadres in the army.
Nanxiang's army is, to put it bluntly, a military academy without walls.
As long as the people who come out of it have actually been on the battlefield, the new soldiers will become veterans, and the veterans will become elite soldiers, and then use them as the backbone to quickly raise an army of tens of thousands of people, that is a normal thing.
When one person has learned, he can teach ten people; if ten people have learned it, he can teach hundreds of people... After ten thousand people have learned it, he can teach three armies. This is the training method of Wei soldiers.
At the same time, it is also the "teaching method" of the Rabbit Army in later generations.
Zhao Yun glanced at Feng Yong meaningfully, "Everyone said that Feng Langjun was far-sighted and I finally understood what he had learned."
At the same time, I was thinking in my mind that Erlang has now begun to lead an army on his own, and this son is now preparing to lead an army to Yuejun. It seems that these Nanxiang soldiers are just the time to use them.
The Prime Minister often said that in recent years, the elites gathered by the late emperor from all over the world have been declining day by day, and he felt very anxious.
But this person seems to have found another supplementary method, but I don’t know if it can work?
Zhao Yun thought deeply for a moment, then looked at the soldiers who were retreating, and asked, "How much does it cost to raise these soldiers?"
“Eat three times a day, and there must be meat once every three days. You must train all the year round and don’t slack off. You don’t have to worry about your family. Your parents and wives will receive preferential treatment from Nanxiang.”
Training is very physically demanding, so food must be nutritious.
Just the standard that meat must be eaten every three days can be afforded by Nanxiang, who owns pastures in the Han Dynasty.
Although this is already a very low standard in Feng Yong's view, in other places, it is mostly before a battle that ordinary soldiers have the opportunity to eat a bite of meat.
These days, it’s not about comparing who is doing better, but comparing who is worse.
Life is as cheap as grass in troubled times. When those who almost died in misery finally lived a good life, Feng Yong believed that they all worked hard to maintain the rare pure land of Nanxiang.
The further improvement of dry food, the large-scale application of wheelbarrows, and the purchase of more than 2,000 Yunnan horses from Zhuge Laoyao, as well as the increasing maturity of Dongfeng Express, formed the basis for the Nanxiang soldiers to go to war in the Han Dynasty. Food standards are guaranteed.
If the Northern Expedition is to be considered in the future, Yuejun's horse farm will not hesitate.
Although the era of "wars are fought by logistics" has not yet arrived, logistics has a considerable influence on wars in any era.
“If he is injured or disabled on the battlefield, Nanxiang will have his share of life. If he is killed in battle, Nanxiang will support his parents and wife.”
Feng Yong continued to explain.
“I heard that the people in Nanxiang have no worries about food and clothing, which is much better than elsewhere. If they are treated more favorably and raised well, what level will it be like?”
Zhao Yun sighed, "It's no wonder you treated them like that just now. They were so willing to treat them like mustard. So even if I want to take away the remaining four hundred people, I'm afraid I won't be able to raise them easily." Get up?"
Feng Yong didn't say anything, so he took it as his acquiescence.
To put it bluntly, the appearance of Nanxiang today is a bit like the model of the Frontier Construction Corps of later generations.
All personnel are managed in a militarized manner, and there is quite an atmosphere where all the people are soldiers.
The characteristics of the proletariat provide the basis for this atmosphere.
Although this model develops to the end and reaches a certain scale, it will produce a certain degree of xenophobia, and there will also be various problems such as bloat, corruption, and infighting.
But for the current world, this is the fastest way that Feng Yong can think of to bring Han and Hu Liao together - no matter whether the method is crude or not, as long as it is effective.
As for the problems that arise after interest groups of sufficient scale are formed, that will be something to be solved in the future.
Zhao Yun didn't know what Feng Yong was thinking. He thought about it carefully and found that only a strange place like Nanxiang was qualified to raise troops like this.
The soldiers of Wei trained by Wu Qi fought in all directions and achieved the extraordinary feat of "fighting seventy-two battles, winning sixty-four, and defeating the rest (regardless of victory or defeat.
But this method of raising troops also has a drawback, that is, it is extremely expensive.
In its heyday, Wei Wuzu could only raise tens of thousands of soldiers despite all the efforts of the country.
And once the loss is excessive, it is difficult to replenish it.
Zhao Yun didn't know what Nanxiang's soldiers were capable of replenishing, but he knew that with the current situation, the Han Dynasty could never afford this way of raising troops.
So he had no choice but to sigh, waved his hands, and said, "Didn't you bring people here and want them to see the soldiers? Go ahead and make arrangements. Erlang stays, I have something to tell you."
Feng Yong looked at Zhao Guang behind him and saw that his face turned pale.
This kid seems to have a deep psychological shadow on his master.
“Brother…brother.”
After Feng Yong greeted everyone and prepared to leave, Zhao Erlang, who was famous as a hero in Jincheng, whispered two words in a trembling voice. At the same time, looking at his mouth shape, there should be two words "save me" that he didn't dare to say. , there was even a look of help in his eyes.
No future!
Feng Yong also glared. Even if Mr. Zhao didn't want to hit you, when he saw you like this, he would still get angry if he wasn't angry.
Ignoring him, Feng Yong led everyone away.
"大… sir."
Zhao Guang shouted, moved his legs and walked slowly towards his master.
"Why are you so far away? I won't hit you, come here quickly."
Zhao Yun drank.
Once he heard that the master had no intention of taking action, Zhao Guang immediately trotted over.
Zhao Yun stood there and pondered, but did not speak for a long time.
Just when Zhao Guang thought that his master was trying his best to find an excuse to slap him, he finally heard his master ask, "Do you know about Nanxiang's military training method?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Guang secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Of course I know this. In fact, many of these soldiers have been trained by children themselves."
"Brother, apart from personally training the soldiers at the beginning, after we were able to take over, he rarely left the field except for writing training manuals."
“Writing a code of conduct?”
After hearing this, Zhao Yun felt that he had caught something, "What code of conduct?"
“Oh, my brother specially compiled a code of conduct for the soldiers in Nanxiang. It stipulated many complicated rules, down to the details of how the soldiers should walk in the camp.”
"Some places have to be carried out by soldiers. At first, everyone thought it was strange."
“Later I discovered that the soldiers trained with this drill really made people worry a lot. Later, it was very easy to teach them to form a military formation. With just one order, they can use their fingers like an arm..."
Zhao Guang became a little excited when he talked about military matters, and danced and made gestures to Zhao Yun.
"There is such a thing? Then why have you never told me?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yun frowned first, and then asked Zhao Guang with a cold eyebrow.
If you don’t tell yourself such a big thing, do you still have me as an adult in your heart?
Zhao Guang choked for a while and then said with a bit of stuttering, "Didn't your Excellency say before that this art of war is an important weapon of the country and should not be taken lightly? Those thirty-six strategies before..."
I used to say that I learned the Thirty-six Strategies of War from my brother, and I was scolded by the adults, saying that the art of war in this world should not be taken lightly.
Later, he was taken to the martial arts training ground by the adults for a drill.
From then on, I never dared to mention anything about the art of war in the army.
Zhao Yun:…
