Prosperous Tang Dynasty

Chapter 92 Recruitment and Training

As the Duke of the country, Li Fei has the right to have 350 armored guards.

Of course, the "armor" refers to the leather armor, and there are at most a few heart guards and the like embedded in the leather armor, rather than the full-body iron armor. After all, the imperial court is preventing rebellion.But this is already amazing, as long as it is not a rebellion, it is enough to protect the safety of a country.

Li Fei currently only has less than forty guards, and all of them have only undergone simple training, which is not enough to ensure the safety of his family, let alone deal with the war after the prosperity of the world is broken in the future.

After nearly a year of accumulation, Li Fei is not short of money, and the weapons and leather armor of the guards are not a problem for him. The important thing is the people, or the loyal and dedicated people.

Those who have not been trained can be trained, but those with impure minds will not only fail to protect themselves and their families, but will put their families in danger.

Li Fei did not choose to recruit people in Chang'an City, nor did he recruit people in his own name, he was afraid that too many spies planted by Wang Yu, Yang Guozhong, or Li Linfu would get mixed up.So Li Fei only recruited people quietly in other counties and towns outside Chang'an City.

Li Fei issued a high monthly bill of five pennies a month, and made a few requirements. He had a clear follow-up, good physical fitness, and was not afraid of suffering, tiredness, or death!

You know, being a guard for ordinary high-ranking officials is only two guan a month, but Li Fei has given five guan. There are countless people who apply, and only the elite can stay.

The way to judge who is the elite is very rough, that is, let them run, and those who persevere to the end must be the group with the best physical fitness and the most endurance. Most of the stamina are patient, and such people rarely steal The generation who cheats and plays tricks.

Counting the 350 or so people in Wu Guogong's mansion, Li Fei recruited [-] people at one time, all of them were recruited in other people's names from unexpected counties and towns in Chang'an City, and the possibility of gaps in them is extremely low. .

When these people were brought to the Duke of Wu's mansion, they were very shocked. They never thought that the one who recruited them to be guards was Yang Guifei's adopted son, Duke of Wu Li Fei, who had just risen up in a mythical way in the past year.

Li Fei is too young, and his rise is too fast. Like the stars of later generations, many people regard Li Fei as an object of worship.

If Li Fei is someone they can see from afar, and they can see how Li Fei rises step by step, and every process of Li Fei's rise, then they may be more jealous of Li Fei, but Li Fei But it is a character they cannot see from afar, and it is even more impossible for them to see how Li Fei rises step by step, so Li Fei is a legend and a myth to them, so there is no jealousy, only worship.

Among the recruited guards, many admired Li Fei extremely.When Li Fei introduced himself to them, their eyes lit up with excitement, and they almost bowed down to Li Fei.

"From now on, you will be the guards of my Duke Wu's mansion." Li Fei couldn't help but feel a little ecstatic when he saw the expressions of many people adoring him.

There is no way, whoever made my brother play well, the advantages of time travel, most people don't understand!

Zeng A Niu has sharp eyes and has been with Li Fei for a long time. Once he saw Li Fei's flirtatious expression, he knew how proud Li Fei was at this moment.Grandpa Guo is too proud and has lost a lot of "humility", but who made Grandpa Guo young and capable? Doesn't he, Ah Niu, also admire Grandpa Guo very much?

After Li Fei cleared his throat, he said solemnly: "Not only will my father give you five monthly rules, but he also plans to provide your children with the opportunity to read and practice calligraphy. Even if your other family members need it, my father can also give you They introduce additional opportunities to make money from work. But this is not without price, the country’s father also wants your loyalty! He also needs you not to be afraid of hardship, tiredness, or even death! The country’s father’s ugliness is the first thing to say, stay what you can do, and do it If you don't get it, leave as soon as possible, don't wait to be caught by your country's prince when you betray your country's prince, otherwise the consequences will be very serious."

Li Fei knows that loyalty cannot be obtained in a short time, and no one will be loyal to you without a reason and work hard for you.Only by binding the future and fate of them and their family with you can you have a real chance of gaining their loyalty.

After finishing speaking, Li Fei was silent for nearly half a stick of incense, and no one was willing to leave. This was expected by Li Fei, whoever let him go out had too good a condition.

For these people, suffering and tiredness are not within their considerations at all. Those who can persist in running until the end, until they are selected, have good physical fitness and endurance, and usually come from hard work. They are commonplace, and as for death, you will only know when you see that you may die.

"Since no one is willing to leave, from today onwards, you are the guards of my Duke Wu's mansion. The first thing you will face in the future is the special training set by the Duke himself to improve your strength."

Although Li Fei was not a soldier, he had the opportunity to visit the barracks twice. In addition to the accounts of those who returned from the army and the descriptions on TV and books, he was familiar with many trainings of the army.

Of course, this is the Tang Dynasty, not modern times, so it can only be partially referred to at most.

The training programs set by Li Fei include running, going up and down the hook ladder, leapfrog, push-ups, dumbbells, weightlifting, etc. The first phase mainly focuses on training physical fitness and endurance.

Li Fei's Wu Guogong Mansion was handed down from the early Tang Dynasty to the Tang Xuanzong's period and was defeated. The building area is not small, and there is a special training ground for guards.In fact, every high-ranking official in the Tang Dynasty, even ordinary tyrants, has a special training ground for guards. Li Fei ran around the training ground in Wu Guogong's mansion for about 600 meters, which was enough for 350 people to train.

Li Fei is not sure how effective the training program he set is, but it doesn't matter, he himself will often participate in training, and he can change it at any time if he finds any shortcomings.

"A Niu, you also participate in the training. If you can stand out, I will let you be their leader." Li Fei said to A Niu.

Ah Niu has been with him for the longest time, there is no need to doubt his loyalty, and Ah Niu has some foundation, his natural strength is stronger than ordinary people, and he never suffers in fights. If he can participate in training, his strength can also be improved.After the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, there will be troubled times. In that era, the real force is the most important, and even Li Fei himself has to improve.

"It's the Duke." A Niu's eyes lit up, the Duke trusts him so much, this is a good opportunity, he will definitely live up to the trust of the Duke.

In this way, Li Fei took all the newly recruited guards in his house and started the training in a hurry.

I have to say that these training programs set by Li Fei are very "torturing" people, and the training effect on physical fitness and endurance is very good. After all, many of them are the daily training of the army of later generations. After scientific testing, they can maximize the potential of the human body. At the beginning of the training, no one could get used to it. It was really hard and tiring. The guards who used to work as coolies couldn't stand it for many consecutive days.

Fortunately, in addition to the painful training, three meals a day have fish and meat, and white rice is full. Most of these guards who have come from poverty have almost never eaten so well. It is painful and happy. All in all, it is so good Meals plus five regular monthly routines, and other benefits, no one is in a hurry to neglect during training, because the consequence of neglect is to be driven away.
