"General, this kind of training is a bit too cruel!"

Cao Mao didn't answer him, but looked at the others,
"Who has something to say?"

Another soldier raised his hand.

"speak!"

"General, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold on, and I hope the general will reduce the intensity of training!"

Cao Mao smiled coldly,

"I can reduce the training intensity for you, and even let you rest..."

Hearing this, the faces of the soldiers present showed a touch of joy.

But Cao Mao's words were not finished yet.

"But will the enemies on the battlefield show mercy to you?"

"Soldiers can only have combat effectiveness if they are trained strictly, and an army with combat effectiveness can reduce sacrifices."

"Sweat more in peacetime, and bleed less in wartime!"

"If one day you really go to the battlefield, you will thank me for the cruel demands I made on you today!"

Jia Xu's eyes lit up.

Sweat more in peacetime and bleed less in wartime?

This sentence is concise and straightforward, but it contains profound truth.

If you want to kill the enemy on the cruel battlefield, you must train strictly in peacetime!

Unexpectedly, Cao Mao could have such a sharp point of view at such a young age and had not yet been on the battlefield.

"As for your saying that the training intensity is too high, don't worry, this general will train with you!"

The soldiers present all shut their mouths tightly.

Cao Mao took the initiative to leave the field and train with them. How dare they complain?
Then a new round of training began.

The first is a ten-mile cross-country run.

The foundation of these soldiers, in the final analysis, is the evolution of refugees from the Yellow Turban Army.

Because of their extremely poor physique, 3000 people dragged into a long line.

Halfway through the run, many people were already out of breath and could hardly run.

They wanted to stop and rest, or even give up.

"Get up, keep running for me! Even the general can persist, do you really want to be trash?"

Cao Da, who was in charge of supervision, shouted sharply.

Those soldiers looked forward, and saw Cao Mao running forward with all his strength, his thin body seemed extremely tall!
Even their own generals are participating in training, so how can they give up?
So they could only grit their teeth and continue to follow behind Cao Mao.

"Whoosh, whoosh!"

Cao Mao gritted his teeth and walked with heavy legs.

Although the system rewarded thirty points of strength, the former Cao Mao was too weak.

With such a weak body, not to mention fighting on the battlefield, I am afraid that even a small cold can kill him.

Don't forget, this was the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty when medical skills were underdeveloped.

That's why Cao Mao took the initiative to participate in training.

One is to convince the soldiers, and the other is to exercise their bodies.

After a ten-mile cross-country run, Cao Mao only felt a burning pain in his lungs, and his legs felt as if they had been filled with lead.

He sat down on the ground, panting heavily.

"Lord."

Cao Da came over.

"How's the training going?"

Cao Mao asked.

"Except for dozens of soldiers who were weak and fainted on the way, the others all completed the training mission!" Cao Da replied.

A slight smile appeared on Cao Mao's face.

It seems that these soldiers have been successfully trained by themselves.

He stood up and shouted at the stumbling soldiers,

"gather!"

The soldiers jumped up reflexively, dragging their tired bodies and quickly lined up.

"I am very satisfied with your training today, you have lived up to my expectations!"

Hearing this from the center of Cao Maokou, the soldiers couldn't help feeling a little proud.

"Dine now!"

Cao Da and others brought three thousand soldiers to the shed that had been built nearby.

The cooks will distribute the meals prepared in advance to the soldiers one by one.

Seeing the food on the plate in front of them, the soldiers let out a burst of exclamation.

"I'm going, why is it so fragrant?"

"There's even meat in the meal?"

Cao Da on the side knocked on the table and shouted loudly,

"quiet!"

The shed was suddenly quiet.

Cao Da looked directly at the soldiers present with a pair of tiger eyes, and said calmly,
"The meat in the meals is subsidized by the general himself for you!"

The three thousand soldiers were startled for a moment, and then moved expressions appeared on their faces.

In ancient times, when marching and fighting, most of the rations given to soldiers were corn, which was enough to fill their stomachs.

But Cao Mao took out his own money to buy meat for the soldiers.

How can we not move them deeply?

"Although all the soldiers train hard and fight the enemy bravely, this general will naturally not treat you badly."

Cao Mao said calmly.

"Thank you General!"

Everyone said in unison.

Soon there was a sound of gobbling in the shed.

Cao Mao took the bowl and sat down among the soldiers.

"General, you are..."

The soldier next to him looked surprised.

Especially when he saw that the food in Cao Mao's bowl was no different from theirs, he was even more surprised.

"I am your general, so naturally I want to eat and train with you, there is no fuss."

Cao Mao shouted lightly.

When the soldiers heard such words, their hearts were greatly moved, and even their eye sockets were faintly red.

Such a good general is probably the only one in the world.

While eating, Cao Mao asked the soldiers next to him,
"What's your name?"

"Report to the general, my name is Gouzi."

"Where are you from, and how many people are there in your family?"

"I'm from Yuzhou. I have an old mother and younger brother at home. They are farming in Qingzhou."

Gouzi smiled naively.

"Work hard, you will make military exploits in the future, and go back in a glorious manner, so that your family can be proud of you!"

Cao Mao patted Gouzi on the shoulder.

Gouzi blushed excitedly and nodded repeatedly.

Then Cao Mao chatted with the other soldiers, and he, who had no airs, quickly became one with the soldiers.

Jia Xu took all the process into his eyes, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

……

That night.

After a day of training, Cao Mao returned to his tent exhausted.

But before he took off his armor, Cao Shiba outside the tent reported that Jia Xu had come to see him.

"Wenhe, it's so late, what else is there?"

Cao Mao yawned and asked.

Jia Xu looked serious, and bowed to Cao Mao,
"Wen He wishes to be loyal to the young master!"

Cao Mao was taken aback for a moment, then laughed,

"Three thousand soldiers haven't finished their training, and we haven't seen the agreement between you and me. Why does Wenhe have to be loyal to me?"

"With the talent of your son, how difficult is it to train these three thousand soldiers into elite soldiers?"

During today's training process, Jia Xu participated in the whole process.

Cao Mao and the soldiers trained and ate together, and also took out money to supplement the meat for the soldiers.

The last attitude of the soldiers shows that Cao Mao has gained the morale of all the soldiers!
From Cao Mao's various behaviors, if he said that he could not train three thousand soldiers into elite soldiers, he would not believe it if he killed Jia Xu!
