Chapter 11: Pain and happiness

The sky is hazy, heavy snow is flying, and the north wind is roaring, blowing on your body, like a knife cutting flesh.

On the school ground, the new army was undergoing training, and they were sweating profusely and panting. Although they were strong and strong, much better than Li Mingchu, who was a refugee, they still couldn't stand it. Under Wu Ji's order, Li Mingchu and others racked their brains to train. Once they used all the tricks, the new recruits would have to take it.

"You haven't eaten? After only a few laps, you have become women!" Li Mingchu raised his throat and roared: "You are better than women, and you want to kill Liao Gou to take revenge and be your dream of Qingqiu!"

I don’t know how long I yelled, but my throat was smoking. I picked up the tea and took a big sip, and then yelled: “You think the Liao dog is a pig, and I stretched my neck and waited for you to chop and kill! Just because of you, if the army is not a soldier, you will die! Run for me! Run! If you can’t run, just eat a whip!”

Several veterans of the Converted Army, holding horse whips in their hands, whipped at the backward recruits. They were in a mess. The person who was almost unable to run suddenly became a fierce spirit and ran very fast.

"They are bullies, and they still want people to survive?"

"We are here to join the army, not to beat people!"

"The commander of Wu Du looked at it, but he didn't say anything. How could he lead the troops like this!"

"Moti Wu Du commander, this is his instruction! He is the worst! He calls this what strict training, oh! This is almost deadly, and it is still strict."

The recruits whipped the whip hard, and saw it in their eyes, but they were angry in their hearts, but they didn't dare to say it in person, so they could only mutter to each other. When they mentioned these cowardly things, they were very upset.

"Although I'm a little bit ruthless, the meal is really rich, much richer than at home, and I'm so ecstatic that I'm so ecstatic."

"If you don't mention it, I'm going to die! When you mention it, my stomach is hungry again. No matter how well I eat, I can't hold on. How old has it been after eating, my stomach growled again."

"Looking at your promising prospects, you will know that you will almost become a pig."

The recruits continued to mutter.

No matter what, although they complained about being tired, they cannot deny that their daily life is much better than at home. Although they are not refugees and their family lives well, it is impossible to have meat every meal. At that time, ordinary people could eat meat every time, which was already a well-off life. Most of them could fill their stomachs. This kind of meat every meal was the first experience in their life, and it was very happy to think about it.

However, this kind of happiness makes them suffer, and the training volume is too great. Even with their bodies, they can't stand it, and they can't complain.

"Don't whisper!" Li Mingchu roared again, swinging the whip in his hand, and the new recruits were busy running out to avoid it, and they were in chaos again.

On the other side of the school ground, Wu Ji, Zheng Tai, Huangfu Song and Qi Dabao were riding war horses, carrying arrows, carrying swords of the enemy on their waists, with long spears on their weapons hooks, and hand crossbows in their hands.

The four of them were energetic, staring forward, pursing their lips tightly.

"Prepare! Go!" Wu Ji ordered loudly.

Four people clamped their horse's legs, and the war horse neighed, galloped away, splashing a sliver of ice and snow.

"Hand crossbow! Let it go!" The crossbow in Wu Ji's hand began to show his power in front of him. One by one, the crossbow arrows broke through the air barrier, made a sharp roar, and shot out.

The crossbow arrow shot far, farther than the bow and arrow and the range, so he fell completely.

Until he finished shooting the crossbow arrow, Wu Ji pulled the crossbow away and shouted: "Bow and arrow! Let it go!" He took off the hard bow from his back, put on the arrow, and shot it forward.

For a moment, sounds of breaking through the air came out, and arrows shot out one by one. Although there were only four people, their power was quite strong.

"Collapse the bow, let the gun!" Wu Ji pulled away his hard bow, picked up the spear from the weapon structure, held the handle of the gun tightly with both hands, and rushed away quickly.

"Run! Rush! Rush!" Wu Ji yelled while charging, his voice as if thunderous.

"Commander Wu, you're about to rush to the wall! Stop it quickly!" Zheng Tai looked at the wall getting closer and closer and reminded loudly.

"Don't stop! I just want to hit the wall and try the power!" Wu Ji had no intention of stopping at all, and threatened: "Whoever wants to stop, military law is engaged in, don't eat today's meals! Just think that it is to help the poor!"

"You..." Zheng Tai, Huangfu Song, Qi Dahe and the other two were angry and accused each other: "How could you do this? You hit the wall."

"If you don't hit the wall, you don't know how powerful the impact is. You can only understand it if you hit it." Wu Ji held the spear tightly in both hands and hit the wall hard.

"Oh!" Zheng Tai, Huangfu Song, Qi Dabao sighed, gritted his teeth, sacrificed his life to accompany the gentleman, held the spear tightly, and hit the wall hard.

"Boom!"

A earth-shaking sound came, as if a thunderbolt exploded, shaking the eardrums. The spear in the hands of the four people hit the wall firmly, and with a click, the spear broke.

"Ouch! Ouch!"

The screams continued, Wu Ji, Zheng Tai, Huangfu Song and Qi Dabao shouted in unison and fell off the horse's back. The war horse was not careful and hit the wall hard, making a sad neigh.

For a moment, people shouted and neighed, and they felt a bit as fierce as the battlefield. However, if you see their pain, you will know that they are in great trouble.

"Hiss! Hiss!"

Zheng Tai couldn't help but sucked the cold air, shook his hand hard, and complained to Wu Ji: "Commander Wu Du, you don't do anything well, and you want us to hit the wall, it hurts so much! You are so full!"

"The lunch is not enough, it's not enough." Wu Ji shook his hand and teased, looking at the wall, and said, "It's not bad! Our collision is so powerful. There are only four of us. If there are more people, just this collision will knock the wall down. What a great force!"

"You are such a lunatic!" Huangfu Song also complained: "If you want to try your strength, can you hit the wall?"

"Very good! Very good!" Wu Ji nodded violently: "Brother Huangfu, don't move when you stand there, I'll hit you."

"Don't come!" Huangfu Song rolled his eyes suddenly. This commander is really crazy. It's scary to start. If he hits the cavalry that charges at high speed, he will still be broken and his bones will be broken?

"At least one verified, my idea is right and feasible!" Wu Ji shook his hand, sucked the air conditioner, and concluded the action.

"We're almost going to break up for you. If it doesn't work, isn't this suffering going to be in vain?" Qi Dabao grinned, very unhappy.

Since the four of them discussed the direction of cavalry training, Wu Ji took three people to verify. The four of them had no experience in training cavalry, and all their ideas were not verified. If they did not verify first, they would really not dare to train cavalry. Zheng Tai and the other two had no objection to this matter and accompanied Wu Ji to verify it.

At the beginning, they were not very familiar with each other. With the verification time and time again, Wu Ji and the others became more familiar with the cavalry and became more and more vigorous. However, Wu Ji suddenly asked them to hit the wall and used the force of the spear to verify it, which made them feel extremely painful. The recoil force was too strong. Not only did the spear break, the wrists and arms were so painful that they couldn't stand it, as if they were broken.

This is not counting. If a person can't bear it and falls off the horse's back, the power of the fall is also quite large. The pain is really unspeakable.

"Commander Wu Du, we have verified the cavalry training. I have something to do. Let's leave first, I won't be crazy with you." Zheng Tai struggled to stand up, patted his butt, and was about to leave.

But he reached out to Wu Ji and saw Wu Ji's smile on his face, which was very kind. Tai Zheng saw it, his heart trembled and kept retreating: "Commander Wu Du, don't say that there is something wrong. I really have something to do. I still have to build a city. I won't accompany you anymore, and I won't accompany you crazy."

If Wu Ji came up with a similar idea again, he would not remove the bones and apply oil under his feet.

"Mr. Zheng, what do you think of me? Am I that bored?" Wu Ji's kind smile made people feel very friendly. However, in the eyes of Zheng and the other two, there was a little bit of the unknown meaning of the wolf grandmother, and she couldn't help but retreat.

"We are called pain and happiness!" Wu Ji stood up, patted the ice and snow on his body, and smiled: "Although it was painful, it was the finalization of training. Although it was not perfect enough, it also took out the general direction. The rest was to improve it during training."

The four of them struggled for a few days, mainly to explore training. Training cavalry is a systematic project. Wu Ji studied the Song Dynasty's training methods for cavalry and was very dissatisfied with it. To talk about training infantry, the Song Dynasty really had a plan. To talk about training cavalry, the Song Dynasty was really far from training cavalry.

Fortunately, Zheng Tai was knowledgeable. He found records of the training of cavalry in the Tang Dynasty. Wu Jiyi studied it and praised it very much. The training of cavalry in the Tang Dynasty was a masterpiece, which was much more skillful than the Khitan cavalry, especially its flexible tactical use, which was far beyond the reach of the Khitans today.

If we learn from the training methods of the Tang Dynasty, combined with our own understanding, and add some experiences from later generations, once the cavalry is trained, it will definitely be very impressive.

It is impossible to train elite cavalry just by reading books, and it still needs to be practiced. Wu Ji took Zheng Tai, Huangfu Song and Qi Dabao to make trouble. The three of them were particularly concerned about this matter, and Zheng Tai didn't care about building a city. No one expected that Wu Ji would almost tear off their bones after such a move.

It takes a few days to improve it, so I can only explore the general direction. In terms of details, it only takes time to improve it during training.

Despite this, this achievement still excited Wu Ji.

"Yes! Although it's a little hard, it's still worth it to find the big direction!" Huangfu Song seemed to feel that it didn't hurt much.

"This is the meaning of pain and happiness!" Wu Ji patted Huangfu Song's shoulder, changed his subject and said, "I understand the general direction of cavalry training, but the problem comes next. How should infantry deal with it?"

"Infantry?" Zheng Tai, Huangfu Song and Qi Dabao were very surprised and asked in unison: "Commander Wu Du, what do you mean? We are very good at converting to infantry. We can wipe out five thousand Liao dogs in just five hundred. What else do you want?"
