The day after the village soldiers came to surrender, the training began immediately.

There were more than 30 soldiers who came to join the army. In line with these 30 people, ten Julu soldiers also participated in the new recruit training.

According to the method of queue training, the first step is to practice queue positioning and distribution. After the instructor puts the village soldiers into position, they must remember each person's position.

"Look around to see where you are standing," the instructor instructed.

The village soldiers looked left and right in a sense of novelty.

At the end, the instructor solemnly confessed, “I will issue a [dismissal] order in a moment and disperse immediately.

When I give the assembly order again, come back immediately and stand in your original position, can you hear me clearly?"

In the queue, the Julu sergeant shouted back, "It's clear!"

This caused the rural soldiers to laugh. The rural soldiers felt that the armored and helmeted officers and soldiers standing next to them were a bit silly.

The instructor glared at the laughing man and said, "Are you laughing? Hold it in!"

Let me tell you, listen clearly! When I ask, "Is it clear?", everyone must answer, "Yes," and whoever dares not to respond will be governed by military law!"

Upon hearing that the consequences were so serious, the rural soldiers stopped smiling.

After that, the instructor asked several questions, and the soldiers answered them several times. After this round, the soldiers all knew that there were questions and answers.

At the end of this step, the instructor ordered the group to disband.

Regarding the training, the rural soldiers were confused and ordered to disband. They didn't know where to go. When they saw the Julu Army soldiers walking aside, they followed suit.

The specially designed trap is opened.

After a Julu sergeant walked away, he told the village soldiers to go out to pee. Some of the village soldiers were smart and followed him, hoping to take the opportunity to have a relationship with the veteran. Some thought it was just ordinary and didn't care.

At this time, the instructor silently stared at the people walking away from the team. When the people walked away, he immediately shouted to the crowd, "Gather!"

The military order came suddenly, and the village soldiers didn't know why, but they saw the Julu sergeant and the soldiers hurried over like rabbits.

Attracted by this, the village soldiers reacted, some followed and ran, and some slowly walked over.

The instructor stared at everyone without saying a word.

"You!" the instructor pointed at the country soldier who came last and said coldly, "Stand outside first."

The soldier who was left behind was stunned for a moment and stopped.

Just then, the Julu Army soldier who had excused himself to pee ran back in a panic with the two abducted country soldiers.

"You three, stop!" The instructor stopped the three of them and asked coldly, "What are you three doing?"

"Pee... pee." The soldier couldn't help but laugh, it was a bit strange.

The instructor couldn't bear it anymore and angrily yelled, "I can choke you to death! You disappeared after a while and ran away. I'll give you an order to gather together and you are gone. If the military situation is urgent and the war is delayed, it will be easy to kill you."

He turned to look at the military judge standing with his arms folded, "Military judge!" the instructor shouted.

"Here!" The military judge with a majestic figure and a round waist responded immediately.

The instructor pointed to the three people who delayed the assembly, "These three people missed the assembly. Each of them will be whipped twenty times as a warning to others!"

The Julu sergeant walked over dejectedly, and the two country soldiers had to follow him.

The soldiers of the Julu Army took off their armor and clothes, exposing their backs. The country soldiers hesitantly and reluctantly took off their clothes.

There was a crack of the whip, and the military judge whipped in the air. "Stand up straight!" the military judge roared.

The three people who committed the crime were shocked.

Snapped!

Snapped!

The whip in the hand of the military judge was mercilessly slapped on the three people's backs, one whip after another. With each blow, there was a red edge on the three people's backs.

Everyone in the audience felt sad when they saw this scene.

After the thirty whips were finished, the instructor warned, "Don't do it again! Return to the team!"

After punishing these three people, the instructor pointed to the person who was the slowest to return to the team and said, "This person is lagging behind and is slow to return to the team. He is also disobeying the order. The military judge will give him five lashes as punishment."

"Execution!"

The military judge used his whip again and gave the man five lashes in front of everyone.

The Julu sergeant had been training for a long time and should not have made a stupid mistake, but he still made it. There is only one explanation. It was intentional. Before the training, the instructor had discussed with the soldier and asked the soldier to make a mistake intentionally.

, so as to take the opportunity to kill the chicken and scare the monkey.

It is precisely because of this arrangement that when the village soldiers saw tall and tall soldiers in armor and helmets, they were beaten when they asked for a beating. Seeing that people from both sides were punished, it was fair and just, so the resistance in the hearts of the village soldiers was small.

A lot.

This method is extremely clever. After this episode, the village soldiers all felt solemn in their hearts.

After this, formal training begins.

The instructor went down to check the positions and found that many people were standing in the wrong place. He pointed them out one by one and adjusted everyone's positions one by one.

Those who stood wrong thought they would be punished and were worried, but the instructor did not punish them.

After adjusting everyone's positions, the instructor glanced at everyone and said again, "Look at where you are standing. Don't stand wrong again."

With the police in front of them, the rural soldiers did not dare to be careless anymore and quickly looked around.

"Disband!" the instructor ordered again.

The queue dispersed with a roar.

After a while, "Gather!" the instructor issued the assembly order again.

In the training process of the Julu Army, according to the schedule of the month-long training, on the first day, you only need to practice assembly and disbandment.

On the training ground, the instructors kept issuing commands to assemble and disperse, and the queues sometimes gathered and sometimes dispersed.

At the same time, Li Mengxi didn't care about troop training at all. There were enough soldiers in the army who could serve as instructors for new recruits, and there was no need to keep an eye on them anymore.

Li Mengxi was in a room with a short table. His brother Xiao Zhuan and the child were lying on one end of the table writing while Li Mengxi was looking at a map.

In recent days, most of the intelligence detected by the scouts has been summarized on the map.

Li Mengxi looked at the map carefully. He thought about the two problems that needed to be solved, one was manpower and the other was food and grass. Manpower can be recruited forcefully, it can be understood through emotion, it can be moved by reason, and it can be induced by profit.

This is not difficult, but collecting grain and grass is extremely difficult.

Li Mengxi's eyes fell on a small square icon on the map, which was a place marked "Baipowu".

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! According to intelligence, the clans entrenched in this dock are the strongest in the local area. There is a war in the north, and many rural people are joining this dock.

Take refuge.

As one of the leading tycoons in the local area, with Wubao as his base, his family must have a lot of wealth.

As the saying goes, to capture a thief, you should capture the king first, and to capture a snake, you must hit it seven inches. First, subdue this fort. Then when people from all over the country see this fort surrender, they will be willing to offer food.

It is expected that a country rich man can have as many soldiers as he can fight. If he leads his troops forward, he should be able to defeat them without a fight.

(Or not.) Li Mengxi frowned, thinking that most of his troops had been dispersed, and the few hundred troops remaining were probably not enough to deter him into submission.

Or we should wait for a while, wait for enough rural soldiers to be recruited, wait for the troops to be strong and half-trained, and then suppress them forcefully.

Thinking that recruiting troops was a prerequisite for collecting food and grass, Li Mengxi accelerated the process of recruiting rural soldiers. He took 300 soldiers and started taking action immediately.

——

Chi Zhi'er led a team of 300 people and set off to the first village. Chi Zhi'er lined up outside the village. When the villagers saw the army coming, they were frightened by it.

Then, Chi Zhi'er forcefully summoned the people in the village and announced a military order. Chi Zhi'er left five soldiers behind and asked these five soldiers to station here.

After leaving the people behind, Chizhier led the team away directly.

With the threat of Chi Zhi'er leading a team of 300 people, although only five people remained, the villagers did not dare to look down upon these five people. The villagers carefully asked what happened to the Julu soldiers who were left behind.

Sergeant Julu said, "There are insurgents in the north causing trouble. My general has specially ordered us to help the villagers prepare for war."

After a brief explanation, the soldier looked at the people, then toward the village, and asked, "Are there hoes and saws in the village?"

The villagers didn't know what the use of hoes and saws was. The common people did not dare to disobey the orders of the officials and came out with hoes and shovels.

Then, the Julu sergeant put down his luggage, shouldered his hoe, called the villagers, and led the team to get busy.

The method of building defense is very simple, including cutting down trees, digging soil, and using vehicles.

The soldiers took the villagers a little further north and started digging a trench at the entrance of the village.

The officers and soldiers took the lead in the work. At this time, the villagers still did not quite understand the intentions of the officers and soldiers. Seeing that the officers and soldiers were busy working, they also started to work.

It must be said that the negotiation skills of the five Julu sergeants left behind are really weak, and they did not explain the matter well for a long time.

Under the leadership of Sergeant Julu, the soldiers and villagers dug for a long time. After a while of busy work, they were exhausted and had no energy left. The corps leader ordered a rest.

After working side by side for a while, the soldiers got closer to the villagers. When they were taking a break, the villagers asked out of curiosity, "Master, what are we digging this ditch for?"

"Ditch," the corps commander wiped his sweat, raised his hand and drew a line from east to west, "There may be rebels coming from the north, so we'll dig a deep ditch on the north side and bury some wooden sticks in the ditch.

Build a slope with the soil. If a bandit comes and there is a ditch to block him, we can still block him for a while. But if we can't block him, if we delay him for a while, we can run away."
