Chapter 104 Military Law

The military camp is an important military place, and no one is allowed to enter without instructions, and those who violate the prohibition will be severely punished.When Zhao Ang entered Simazhong, the battalion of his father Zhao Chongguo, he was imprisoned and punished.Although Zhao Ang and Zhao Chongguo were father and son, they were not allowed to enter the barracks without permission. This shows that the military law is strict.

Cai Sheng, Ma Zhou, and Liu Xiu, the three battalion chiefs, greeted him in person, so Liu Jing would naturally be able to pass through unimpeded. He stepped on the creaking wooden boards and crossed the deep trench, which was more than one foot wide, into the camp.

As a human being for two lifetimes, the only thing he has anything to do with the military is military training. Walking in this simple ancient military camp, Liu Jing felt a sense of novelty, looked around, and was full of interest.

Liu Liang also showed great interest. When he was at home, he used to gather boys as a part of the song, often using military battles as a play.

In the Han Dynasty, this kind of behavior could be regarded as a "special talent". It was precisely because of this that Liu Jing valued him and cultivated him well.

However, to Liu Liang's disappointment, the barracks in front of him were completely different from what he had imagined. Looking around, there was a dusty scene. Because the time was still short, only a dozen or twenty barracks were built, and the main body was made of bamboo and wood. Mainly, it is obviously based on nearby materials.Around the barracks, hundreds of military tents were densely distributed.

As far as the overall momentum is concerned, it doesn't look like a military center at all, and it's not as spectacular as Liu's Wharf.

Not only that, even the soldiers disappointed him greatly. The clothes they wore were not uniform in style or color.The only passable thing was that they were all wrapped in red scarves, making them look like soldiers.

In fact, this is what Cai Sheng can't tolerate the most. He personally values ​​face and loves beautiful clothes and crowns, but now his subordinates are dressed in tatters and disorder, which is not pleasing to the eye no matter how you look at it.

Regarding the clothing of the soldiers, Liu Jing has already started to solve the problem. He bought a large amount of cloth in Linxiang City a few days ago, and hired people to make crimson clothes, rattan, etc. It will not take long for the soldiers to change into A brand new outfit.

Soon, Liu Jing and Liu Liang found five or six soldiers tied side by side to tree stumps. Seeing them dripping with blood and looking like they were dying, Liu Jing was greatly moved and turned his head to ask Liu Xiu, Cai Sheng, and Ma Zhou. Said: "What crime did they commit?"

Cai Sheng and Ma Zhou could not bear it when they heard the words.

Liu Xiu replied with a serious expression: "Noisy irrigation, nocturnal travel." Liu Jing was not familiar with military affairs, and Liu Xiu was afraid that he would not understand, so he explained: "Noisy irrigation is noise, which is a great ban in the army."

Liu Jing frowned slightly. After all, these are five or six fresh lives. Just because of a little "trivial matter", he would have to pay the price of his life. How could he be indifferent, and said in his heart: "Since ancient times, kindness does not control soldiers, and righteousness does not control soldiers." Cai, it's true!"

Liu Xiu glanced at him, as if he knew what he was thinking, and said: "There is a saying in "Wei Liaozi": "In ancient times, those who were good at using soldiers, those who could kill half of them would be added to the sea, and those who could kill thirteen would be added to the princes." "Sun Tzu's Art of War" says: "Thickness cannot be commanded, love cannot be commanded, and chaos cannot be ruled. For example, if you are a proud son, you cannot use it." Especially at the beginning of the establishment of the camp, the soldiers used to be loose. It is necessary to impose strict laws, otherwise it will not be enough to control the public."

In fact, Liu Xiu himself is not a person who likes to use cruel military methods, but there is no way, he is a disabled person, if he can't establish his majesty from the beginning, this soldier can't be brought down at all.Therefore, these soldiers who broke the law could only consider themselves unlucky, and Liu Xiu killed them as an example to deter the morale of the army.

"Brother Cong makes sense." Liu Jingjing nodded and didn't say anything more.Liu Xiu acted completely in accordance with military law, and there was nothing wrong with it.

In fact, it is not impossible to apply strict laws, but it must not be strict blindly. The correct way to lead the army is to apply both grace and power.Liu Xiu is familiar with the art of war, and he also served as a Sima. I believe Liu Jing should know this without saying it.

Liu Jing walked into the barracks and took the chief seat without hesitation. Others also took their seats. Liu Xiu asked, "Zhong Da, do you want to see the general?"

The general is in charge of a group of troops, officially called the head of the village, also known as the general of a hundred people. As the name suggests, he commands a hundred people. Now there are ten generals in the battalion.

Liu Jing thought for a while, but shook his head and refused. With the help of Liu Xiu, Cai Sheng, and Ma Zhou, he was able to control the entire camp. There was no need to show his presence too much. At least at this stage, he should Keep a low profile as much as possible.

Liu Xiu and Cai Sheng regard Liu Jing's performance as their trust in themselves, and they all feel emotional in their hearts. Liu Jing has a lot of trust in himself, and a scholar dies for a confidant, that's all.

Liu Jing asked Liu Xiudao: "Brother Cong, have you started training soldiers?"

Liu Xiu nodded and said, "The soldiers have been training since the first day they arrived here, usually one hour each in the morning and one hour in the afternoon, and the rest of the time they build camps."

Liu Jing's heart moved when he heard this, and he said, "Then I'll stay until the afternoon to see how my brothers are doing."

Liu Xiudao: "Before the soldiers were either fools in the countryside or light-hearted heroes, after many days of training and supplemented by strict laws, they were able to recognize the flags. The queue was neat, and there was no noise or restlessness." "Distinguishing the Flag" It is the first lesson for ancient soldiers after enlisting in the army. Only when soldiers understand the difference between flags can they "let them go".

At present, the soldiers in the battalion have completed the first lesson "identifying the flag" and officially started the second stage "examining the golden drum". This step is relatively more complicated. First of all, how to maintain the integrity of the formation while moving is a very big problem. It is by no means that results can be seen in three to five days.

Liu Jing was very satisfied, and said with a smile: "Everything is difficult at the beginning. I believe that with the ability of my brother, I will be able to train a good army." Then he turned to Cai Sheng and Ma Zhou and said: "Hongchao, Zijin, You have the opportunity to follow Brother Cong and watch him train soldiers, this is a very rare opportunity, you must study hard."

"promise."

"It's not easy to train an elite soldier." Liu Xiu said so, but he was quite confident in his heart. As long as he was given two years, he would definitely be able to train an elite army.

Facing Liu Xiu, who was about the same age as his father, Liu Liang was a bit cautious at first, but he couldn't hold back his heart after all, and asked Liu Xiu about military issues. After the first attempt, he would It was much simpler, he stalked Liu Xiu, and he never left him even when the latter went out to patrol the camp.

Liu Xiu could see that Liu Jing attached great importance to Liu Liang, and he also believed that this son was a worthy person in the same clan, so he answered his questions one by one in detail.
