I use martial arts to train soldiers in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 20 Daily Reorganization of Cavalry
The next day, Deng Wu woke up refreshed again.After practicing Liaoyuan Hundred Strikes for a while, I learned a set of boxing and footwork from the Nine Yin Manual.

He said to the naughty son Deng Ai next to him: "Let's go, Ai'er, I'll take you to the teacher's place. As a man, you must not only learn martial arts, but also learn the spirit of the ancients. Don't just practice martial arts all day long. Run around. If I hear any bad rumors about you outside, hum..."

To put it bluntly, Deng Wu is also a warrior, and his previous life knowledge is not inferior.I wanted to educate my cheap son well, but I didn't expect that the three sentences were wrong and swear words came out again.

"Father...what's the name of father, whoops!" What did Deng Ai just want to ask?Deng Wu slapped him on the head, and said, "Straighten the words for me, and speak well."

"Father... What is the dance of smelling the chicken? What is the hanging beam stabbing the butt?" After Deng Ai finished speaking, he raised his head and looked at Deng Wu.

Well, take your time!It is much better now.Looking at the son who was blushing after saying these two sentences.Deng Wu explained: "When you hear a rooster, you get up and practice martial arts. When you hear the rooster crowing, you get up and practice martial arts. Hanging the beam and stabbing your butt, it means: There was a famous person in the previous dynasty who studied and studied. He often read it until late at night. Later, he tied his hair to the beam to prevent him from dozing off while studying. Later, he found that it still didn't work. He prepared an awl, and whenever he couldn't resist dozing off, he would pierce it with the awl. My own thigh, using the pain to force myself to cheer up, this is the hanging beam stabbing the thigh."

Deng Ai just nodded while listening.When I heard that dozing off means stabbing my thigh, I couldn't help shivering.So he said: "Father... I... let's hurry up... let's go! Don't...don't make the teacher wait... wait in a hurry." After finishing speaking, he ran to the door quickly.

Seeing Deng Ai scared, ran to the door.Deng Wu nodded in satisfaction, but felt something was wrong? "Hmm! Wait! Brat, you stuttered again. Stop for me. This time, I will never break your leg." After speaking, he strode towards Deng Ai in pursuit.

...Come to the prefect's mansion and find Cai Yong who is concentrating on carving books.Deng Wu made a silent gesture to Deng Ai, then walked lightly to the side of the bookshelf, picked up two bamboo slips and read them.

Truth be told, books of this era.Because most of them are recorded on bamboo slips.Therefore, almost all of them are classical Chinese.When Deng Wu was bored, he used it as a story to read.In the text, what is the deep meaning of what is being told.As long as you can understand the general meaning, just read on like this.

Look at it!Seeing Deng Ai next to him poking Deng Wu, he whispered, "Father... what does this mean?"

Deng Wu put down the slip in his hand and looked towards Deng Ai.I saw Deng Ai holding a bamboo slip called "36 Strategies" in his hand, and pointing to the first stratagem on it, "Crossing the Sea" and said.

"Crossing the sea with the sky! It means: prepare for the week and be lazy, and do not doubt the common. Yin is within the yang, not in the opposite of the yang. The sun, the sun. Isn't this the meaning of crossing the sea with the sky?"

"But, father! Baby...you still don't understand!" Deng Ai said looking at the note on it.

"Oh, how stupid! To put it bluntly. If you think that the preparation is extremely thorough, you will easily relax; if you are used to seeing it, you will often stop doubting it. The tricks are hidden in the exposed things. What you see may not be true. .Maybe it’s an illusion given to you by the enemy, making you take it for granted, let your guard down, and then secretly carry out other plans or conspiracies.” Deng Wu explained bitterly.

"Master Taishou's views on the art of war are really unique!"

do not know when?Cai Yong walked to the side and listened to Deng Wu's explanation of the 36 Strategies.

"Ah! Mr. Bo Jie, when did you come here?" Deng Wu stood up and asked in surprise.Just kidding, this is the understanding of later generations after a lot of tempering.

"Haha, the old man just came here not long ago. I just came here when the prefect was teaching his son. If I had known that the prefect had such a deep understanding of the art of war, I would never let you miss it. The prefect's great opinion." Cai Yong first haha He smiled, and then said seriously to Deng Wu.

"Hehe, I made Mr. Bo Jie laugh. It's just a superficial opinion, it's not elegant. It's a dog, I need to make the master bother!"

"Your Majesty, you are being polite. Xiao Ai is very smart. He knows all the characters. The old man usually lets him learn by himself, just look around. If there are any unfamiliar words or uncommon words, just ask me."

Cai Yong was silent for a while, and then continued: "It's just... it's just that Xiao Aiyou loves military books! I used to come here to look for military books, and the prefect also knows that the old man here is basically literature books. Only a few military books, or Remnants. In recent days, I often carry the book of war with me. A few days ago, I asked Yan Er to burn it down. Without the permission of the prefect, I burned it privately. I forgot the prefect, no wonder. "

Deng Wu looked at Deng Ai strangely and said, "Where did you get the book?"

Deng Ai shrank his neck and said, "I took it in your study."

It was Deng Wuxian's usual boredom, remembering the art of war from his previous life and engraving the art of war, preparing to use it to buy people's hearts in the future.Of course, I didn't remember all of them. I recorded about 20 strategies.

After listening to Deng Ai's words, Deng Wu said to Cai Yong, "It's okay! It's okay. It's just that, sir, is it for collection or for passing on to disciples?"

After speaking, Deng Wu gave Deng Ai a hard look, you son of a bitch.If you want to see it, just watch it in my study!Why bring it out?
"Oh, the prefect also knows that I burned this book of war for the child Wenyuan. That child also loves books of war!" Cai Yong explained at the side.

Nima, it's okay not to mention Zhang Liao.As soon as it was said that it was because of Zhang Liao, Deng Wu's heart became inexplicably angry, and suddenly he became very irritable.This old man Cai Yong definitely did it on purpose.Deng Wu didn't believe that he couldn't see his intentions.

The irritable Deng Wu didn't want to stay here any longer, so he said to Cai Yong: "Oh, then I will take Wen Yuan's place, thank you for your preference. It's just that I transferred him to the military camp yesterday, sir. Why don't you give me the book of war, and I'll hand it over to that kid Wen Yuan." After speaking, he fixed his eyes on Cai Yong, and Cai Yong who read it was embarrassed and said: "The book of war is on the shelf, I'll go get it for you. Prefect."

Deng Wu got up and said to Cai Yong when he got the book of war, "If that's the case, I'll take my leave first."

After speaking, he turned around and told Deng Ai, "Xiao Ai, follow your husband and study literature carefully. If you want to learn the art of war, you can come to me in the evening." After that, he walked straight out the door.

Seeing Deng Wu leave directly, Cai Yong was slightly in a trance.Finally, it turned into a sigh: "Alas! I don't know what the governor is thinking! It's just the governor, you already have a wife! If Yan'er gets married, how will Yan'er deal with herself? I only have a daughter like Yan'er! Hey..."

Deng Wu walked out for a while and took a few deep breaths.Suppress the evil fire in my heart, this time I go to fight the autumn wind, I must take Zhang Liao with me.Alas, after much deliberation, there are still too few advisers.Xi Yan's character is not suitable for conspiracy and tricks at all, he is still better at seeing the overall situation and planning.Thinking about the counselors who are suitable for this kind of insidious design in the Three Kingdoms.Thinking of this, Deng Wu missed Guo Jia very much, and wondered if he had finished that bottle of 'tiger bone ginseng wine'?It's been almost two months, should I finish drinking it?There is definitely no way to ask Xi Yan about this kind of thing, but there is definitely a way to ask Guo Jiana...

After leaving the prefect's mansion, Deng Wu went to the artisan camp again.The Artisan Battalion was established last time when preparing to make the Three Treasures of the Cavalry.With Zhao Dezhu as the official, craftsmen from all walks of life were assembled.Deng Wu followed up on the progress of the three treasures.The result was quite satisfactory, he affirmed the contribution of Zhao Dezhu and several adjutants, and left after a few words of encouragement.

In the afternoon, I went to the Fenwu Camp again and told the soldiers to practice riding more.Although horseshoes cannot be equipped by the entire army, neither can bilateral stirrups be made.But Deng Wu still ordered the soldiers to tie two loops on the other side of the stirrup with hemp rope.The soldiers still did a good job, and even the hemp rope stirrups woven by some soldiers almost caught up with the iron double-sided ones, and the effect was not worse than the iron ones at all.

Deng Wu thought for a while, since he made it.He didn't try to stop it, and simply ordered the soldier to teach the whole army how to weave the stirrup.Then I asked Mrs. Ma, a tailor, to sew out a cover like trousers to hide the 'double-sided stirrups'.

Now that the three treasures of the cavalry have been made.That will definitely leak, it's just a matter of time.Of course, for Deng Wu, the later the leak, the better.This time going north, these things are absolutely absolute, and cannot be leaked to other races.Even if it's just a little bit of inspiration.

After three days like this, Deng Wu gathered all the cavalry of the army.Deng Wu stood on the high platform, with a row of generals behind him, and of course Zhang Liao was also behind.

Looking at the more than 2000 riders below, I was both proud and angry.Proudly, most of these knights were established by Deng Wu.What is angry is that Yanmen County is located at the border.My prefect's mansion originally had 500 riders, plus my hard work over the past month.Piecing together, the 1000 rides that came together.That is to say, the 14 counties of Yanmen received a summoning order from Deng Wu, and a total of more than 500 horses were sent to them.And most of these 500 riders rode low-level war horses, and there were even some who rode poor horses, and only a few rode middle-level war horses.You can tell it's an abandoned child at a glance.

Deng Wu went north to fight the autumn wind this time, and of course it was impossible to take all these knights away.The knights gathered from all counties sent 300 to Yanmen Pass to receive Huang Zhong's assignment and training, and 200 knights were taken away by Gao Shun.

The remaining 1500 riders are what Deng Wu is going to take away.Among these cavalry are all the soldiers of the Fenwu Battalion, as well as the cavalry from the original prefect's mansion.Loyalty is very high, the lowest is above 90.

Then Deng Wu started to assemble the team, gathering all the soldiers and horses with good physical strength.Distribute a full set of heavy armor, including horse armor, armed to the teeth, for charge.To put it bluntly, they are heavy cavalry.After riding and shooting, form a team, equipped with two bows and one crossbow, with five bow strings.The others are ordinary knights, and the logistics battalion riding rough horses.

After the whole team, there were 37 heavy cavalry, including Dian Wei, He Yi, He Man and several generals.There are 162 horse archers, 500 horsemen in the logistics battalion, and the other knights are ordinary cavalry equipped with 5 to 10 spears.There are 14 scouts, and all 14 of them are of third-rate level. Deng Wu is dissatisfied.These 14 people were disassembled to form 7 teams of scouts, with two leading a team, a total of 70 people.

The whole team is completed, and then there is targeted training.Occasionally, I also asked Zhang Liao for his opinion. After all, Zhang Liao was the one who knew the cavalry tactics best in Deng Wu's army.
