Chapter 106: Select elite soldiers and then recruit generals
Chapter 106 Selecting Elite Soldiers and Recruiting Generals
Liu Yan got the position of Yizhou Mu, so he naturally wanted to take office. Liu Zhang allocated 3,000 soldiers from the Huben Army to guard him. The leader was Yan Yan. However, when Yan Yan knew that Liu Zhang sent him to Liu Yan's side,
At that time, the look in his eyes could not be described by two words: resentment. Unfortunately, life is like this. A wrong choice will make people unlucky for life. There is a saying, one mistake will lead to eternal hatred, and it will be a hundred years later when you look back.
After Liu Yan was sent away, Liu Mansion in Luoyang became Liu Zhang's world. Liu Zhang's three brothers had already opened a mansion outside. You know, among Liu Zhang's brothers, the youngest Liu Hao was almost twenty-five years old.
Liu Zhang originally planned to take the opportunity to eat Zhang Ning, but Cai Yong, an old boy, actually moved Cai Yan into the Liu Mansion with the euphemistic name of improving Liu Zhang's knowledge!
Liu Zhang was really helpless. Cai Yong was not only a great Confucian but also a Dongguan Ling, but he was always willing to do good deeds. The Cai Mansion could almost be described as a family with no walls. When he came to the Liu Mansion temporarily, except for Cai Yan, who was holding a handful of valuable
Jiao Weiqin only had a few books left. Originally, having two or three more people in the family was not a big deal. If Liu Yan was here, he would have liked Cai Yong to live in Liu's house forever, but Liu Zhang didn't think so. Cai Yan and Xiao Qiao Ben
She was a close friend in her boudoir. Now when Cai Yan came, Liu Zhang's maid was immediately snatched away in two and a half.
As for why it was said that two and a half were snatched away, it was because although Zhang Ning was still serving Liu Zhang, he no longer flirted with him, so Liu Zhang's plan naturally failed. The real wife arrived, the maid was robbed, and the master and father-in-law were also
No matter what. Since Liu Zhang couldn't afford to offend him and he could afford to hide, he ran to the military camp to prepare his troops!
Due to the arrival of Youzhou troops, the number of soldiers in Huben Camp was as high as 45,000. After allocating 3,000 men to Liu Yan, there were also 42,000. Perhaps in the eyes of others, Huben Camp was already an elite soldier. But in Liu Zhang's heart
, they are at most a standing force. In terms of elite soldiers, they are only special forces! What makes Liu Zhang feel pity is that he does not know how to practice special forces. However, Liu Zhang knows how to improve people's physical fitness. After all, he was also a martial artist in his previous life.
Enthusiast. In Liu Zhang's view, as long as the most skilled martial artists in the army are gathered together for intensive training, they will not have to worry about their combat effectiveness.
Hearing that Liu Zhang was going to select his own bodyguards from the army again, the officers in the Huben camp were gearing up, but the officers in the Huwei camp were very nervous, because the Huwei camp was Liu Zhang's bodyguard camp, and all the soldiers under Liu Zhang regarded it as an honor to enter the Huwei camp.
However, Liu Zhang could only maintain three thousand personal guards, which was a court regulation. If the number exceeded this number, it would be overstepping, and overstepping was also a crime.
In autumn, the leaves on Mang Mountain are falling, and there are even some red leaves, which make Mang Mountain particularly beautiful. However, in the Mang Mountain camp, Liu Zhang’s soldiers were running hummingly, and their lord Liu Zhang was
Sitting on the school platform, holding a tea cup with a smile, staring at them like a devil.
"Brother, the soldiers have been running for half an hour, do you want them to stop?" Zhao Yun couldn't help but feel worried as he looked at the last few soldiers running, who were about to fall.
Liu Zhang took a sip of tea and said: "No, I want to select the most elite three thousand people to be my personal guards. If they can't even do this little thing, why should they be my personal guards? They are not here to enjoy happiness.
, but here to suffer!”
Zhao Yun asked very puzzledly: "Brother, what kind of army do you want to train?"
"Of course they are unprecedented elites. Although they only have two or three thousand people, they can be used as twenty or thirty thousand people!" Liu Zhang took out a training plan from his arms and handed it to Zhao Yun.
"This..." Zhao Yun opened it and looked at it, his eyes widened. If he could really train this elite soldier according to Liu Zhang's method, how strong would this elite soldier be? Zhao Yun simply couldn't imagine it!
Liu Zhang smiled and said: "Zilong need not be surprised. This plan includes training in physical strength, willpower, enemy-killing skills and other aspects. If it can be completed, I hope Zilong can serve as the first commander!"
"What? Me!" Zhao Yun was shocked. He really didn't expect that Liu Zhang would hand over this army to him. From the plan, Zhao Yun could see how elite this army was. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was the elite of the elite.
.
"Yes! It's you!" Liu Zhang glanced at Zhao Yun and said with a smile: "Elite soldiers naturally have to be led by strong generals. Among the whole army, only Han Sheng, Yide and you are the best in martial arts. Han Sheng is too old and Yide is too good."
Reckless, you are the only one with the talent to be a general. Although it is a bit unfair to let you lead only three thousand soldiers, I really don’t trust anyone else except you."
"Yunding has lived up to big brother's high expectations!" Zhao Yun knelt down excitedly. You must know that being a general of the bodyguard is not something that ordinary people can do. Later generations often say that Liu Bei made Zhao Yun the commander of the bodyguard because Liu Bei had no one under his command.
Actually, it is not the case. The commander of the personal guards represents the trust of the lord. The person who can even entrust his life and family members is the most trusted person. Who knows, in history, when Liu Bei first raised his army, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu did not
Do you always stand behind Liu Bei as a bodyguard? No matter how few people Liu Bei has available, it won't be difficult to find two bodyguards!
"Get up!" After Liu Zhang helped Zhao Yun up, he once again looked at the soldiers running in the school field. After an hour of running for 40,000 people, more than 10,000 people had already fallen down. Suddenly, Liu Zhang saw a red-faced and long-bearded man in the crowd.
The big man surprised him. However, he did not make a sound and just watched silently.
When there were still 5,000 soldiers running on the school field, Liu Zhang suddenly stopped and asked these 5,000 people to register for further selection. The big man with a red face and long beard that Liu Zhang saw was also among these 5,000 people.
During this period, Liu Zhang narrowed his eyes and pointed to the crowd: "You, get out of the queue!"
"See you, my lord!" The big man walked out of the crowd and gave Liu Zhang a military salute, but he didn't seem to see the people next to Liu Zhang.
When Huang Zhong saw this person, he immediately smiled and said: "My lord, this is..."
Liu Zhang stopped Huang Zhong's words with a wave of his hand, and said to Zhang Fei: "Yide, go down and play with him!"
"This... is not good!" Zhang Fei hesitated. He was a general after all, so fighting with a small soldier wouldn't be a loss of status.
"What?" Liu Zhang said with a smile: "Yide is not afraid of losing, right?"
"Brother, how could I be afraid of a pawn!" Zhang Fei's eyes widened, and murderous intent burst out from his body, but the big man under the school stage did not move at all, as if Zhang Fei did not exist at all.
"Huh? I have some skills!" Zhao Yun's eyes lit up as he stood next to Liu Zhang.
Liu Zhang ignored Zhang Fei, but said to the big man: "I think you are a little older than General Zhang. Do you dare to fight with General Zhang? If you win, I will protect you as a captain. How about it?"
"
"I don't want to be a captain, but I would like to hold a halberd for my lord!" The big man stroked his long beard with a majestic look.
Liu Zhang laughed and said: "It's too humiliating to use you as a halberd wielder. However, if you can win, how about being a guard beside me?"
The big man laughed and said: "If my lord does not abandon me, I will follow you! General Zhang, I offended you just to be able to stand by your lord's side!"
"How brave!" Zhang Fei jumped down from the school platform and punched the big man in the face. The fist flew across the big man's cheek with a whistling wind.
"Well done!" When the big man saw Zhang Fei coming to attack, he dodged a punch and immediately punched Zhang Fei with both fists. When Zhang Fei saw that the big man had dodged the punch just now, he thought that the big man was not capable of taking his fist.
Without hesitation, he punched out his fists and bumped into the big man's fist.
"Hiss!" Zhang Fei and the big man took a breath of cold air at the same time. It turned out that their fists collided, and they both felt a huge force coming from their fists. Zhang Fei looked at the big man and chuckled: "Good guy, your kung fu is not bad.
!I’m going to take it seriously!”
"Please give me some advice, general!" The big man was not to be outdone, and Zhang Fei's eyes suddenly lit up. You know, Zhang Fei rarely encounters evenly matched opponents. Even Zhao Yun is far inferior to Zhang Fei in terms of strength, and Zhang Ren, Huang Xu
If they are serious, Zhang Fei can defeat them within a hundred moves. As for Huang Zhong, he is an elder, and Zhang Fei still respects his elders.
"Yide, stop!" Zhang Fei and the big man fought for nearly a hundred rounds but could not do anything to each other. Their strength was gradually declining. Liu Zhang did not want them to fight. What's more, Liu Zhang had already seen the big man's strength.
After all, his identity is obvious from his appearance.
Zhang Fei and the big man stepped away at the same time. Zhang Fei said with a smile: "Good man, you are really good. If you were not in the military camp, I would definitely buy you a drink!"
"The general is well-deserved! However, he is a bit stingy! One cup is enough, at least one jar is required!" The big man seemed to look at Zhang Fei with admiration, and the two of them suddenly laughed together.
"It's easy to drink, but you have to tell your name first!" Liu Zhang stared at the big man, but the big man was hesitant.
Seeing the hesitation of the big man, Zhang Fei couldn't help but said angrily: "Originally, you look like a man, but you are so timid when doing things. Since my brother asked you to tell me your name, why are you so hesitant?"
The big man glanced at Zhang Fei, knelt down and said: "A certain person whose surname is Guan, whose name is Yu, and whose courtesy name is Yunchang, is from Hedong Jieliang..."
"Have you killed someone in Hedong, so you are worried that I will arrest you?" Liu Zhang looked at Guan Yu with a smile. In fact, he guessed that he was Guan Yu when he saw the big man with a red face and long beard who was nine feet tall. Otherwise, how could he let Zhang Fei
Challenge him to a duel?
"Yes!" Guan Yu was a bachelor.
Liu Zhang laughed and said: "Yun Chang, I don't care who you have killed. From today on, you will stay with me, how about it?"
"Lord, don't you mind if I kill someone?" Guan Yu asked in surprise.
Liu Zhang asked back: "Have you killed many people?"
"Uh..." Guan Yu looked at Liu Zhang in shock. He did kill a lot of people, especially during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, but the killing he said was different from the killing Liu Zhang said.
Seeing Guan Yu in a daze, Liu Zhang's face darkened and he said, "What? You don't want to stay with me?"
"I wish... I wish!" Guan Yu struck his chest and gave Liu Zhang a military salute.
