Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle

Training Course.

Liu Yu looked at the installed training equipment.

Suddenly, I felt as if I was in another world.

Sandbags, horizontal bars, parallel bars, climbing walls, bamboo nets, archery targets, ...

All these things seen on television in later generations were presented by Liu Yu.

Although the materials are different, the workmanship is a bit rough, and the appearance is a bit strange, but overall, they are somewhat similar.

Three thousand soldiers have already formed up into battle formation.

Seeing Liu Yu coming, everyone saluted.

Liu Yu glanced at the crowd and saw that they were all in high spirits with bright eyes.

Liu Yu waved his hand with a graceful movement, and his eyes inexplicably showed a sense of heroism.

At this moment, I almost blurted out, "Thank you comrades for your hard work."

Just as I was about to say it, I realized something seemed wrong.

In this era, although the concept of comrade had already existed, unlike in later generations, comrade meant people with similar interests and was mostly used between good friends.

Thinking of this, Liu Yu nodded calmly. He walked to the equipment and explained to everyone how to use them.

It took Liu Yu one stick of incense time to explain the usage.

Seeing some confusion in everyone's eyes, Liu Yu did not intend to demonstrate it to them.

It's not that he is proud of his status, but there are some difficult moves that he can't do.

Although his body is much stronger than when he first entered Luoyang, he is not yet strong enough to be a special forces soldier.

Ignoring the doubts in everyone's eyes, Liu Yu looked at Chen Dao and said calmly: "Let's get started."

I have already told you the method. If you can't do it, it only means you are not good enough.

Chen Dao was about to direct everyone to complete the equipment in batches.

Liu Yu suddenly remembered that there was something else he hadn’t explained about the sandbags.

He waved his hand to signal Chen Dao to stop and ordered three thousand sandbags to be tied to everyone's legs.

Everyone was a little confused. If they were just running, why were they tying the bag? Could it be that it contained military rations?

Although the three thousand cloth bags are also called sandbags, Liu Yu knew that there was not so much sand in Luoyang City, so he could only use soil instead.

There will be differences in the effects. In extraordinary times, we can only make do with it.

After everyone tied up the sandbags, Liu Yu directed them to run twenty laps around the training ground.

In less than ten laps, half of the people could not run anymore. They sat down on the side of the road, gasping for breath.

Liu Yu couldn't believe his eyes.

Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun each took away 5,000 men, and the rest who stayed behind in Luoyang were the elite troops in the army.

They were all cavalry, experienced soldiers who had fought in hundreds of battles. Could they be considered elite troops with such performance?

Could it be that I don't have enough understanding of today's cavalry? They don't need to run, they just need to practice horse riding and archery hard.

Liu Yu's purpose in doing this was very simple. He wanted to train another army in addition to the cavalry, a special forces unit of this era.

In a sense, cavalry is the special forces of this era. Cao Cao's Tiger and Leopard Camp, Lu Bu's Xianzhen Camp, Gongsun Zan's White Horse Volunteers, and Dong Zhuo's Xiliang Iron Cavalry all belong to such troops.

This kind of troop has an absolute advantage on the front battlefield, when tens of thousands of people are fighting each other, or in long-range raids.

In this era, cavalry possessed absolute speed and impact power. Once they started running, they were enough to defeat any infantry.

But Liu Yu wanted to train a different form of special forces. This force might not be good at raids or large-scale killings, but they must have skills such as assassination, reconnaissance, disguise, lurking, and creating unrest.

They penetrated deep into the enemy's rear, established regional advantages in a short period of time, and then ensured a large-scale force to attack smoothly.

He had seen a similar example when Emperor Guangwu sent people to attack Shu.

The two main commanders of Emperor Guangwu were killed by assassins.

Liu Yu knew that this was most likely just a historical accident.

Liu Yu didn’t know whether his idea could be realized. Since he had the idea, he had to give it a try to see if it would succeed or not.

Theoretically speaking, tactics are constantly improving with the times, and the tactics of later generations must be more advanced than those of previous ones.

But Liu Yu also knew that all tactics were based on the times. The act of sneaking behind enemy lines had extremely high requirements on individual quality, personal ability, teamwork, weapons and equipment, etc.

The foundation of all this is physical fitness.

After twenty rounds, half of the three thousand people had already fallen down. The elimination rate was close to fifty percent.

Liu Yu asked the rest of the people to rest for a while before starting the next project.

After seeing the first round of testing, Liu Yu lost some confidence in the project.

He really couldn't imagine that the elimination rate would be so high.

Things were exactly as Liu Yu had imagined. After one round, out of the 1,500 people, less than 500 were left.

Liu Yu signaled the others to return to their respective positions, leaving five hundred people to begin training.

Liu Bei came to the training ground and looked at the situation there with some curiosity.

After the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out, Liu Bei began to lead his soldiers into battle.

They also trained soldiers in their spare time, and the most common skills they trained were bayonet fighting, horsemanship, and archery. Liu Yu's method was unheard of.

"Brother, is this a military training technique?"

Liu Yu nodded and smiled, "Yes, this kind of training can make one soldier fight ten."

Liu Bei was a little bit unconvinced. In this era, if you want to reduce the casualty rate, you must rely on geographical advantages. Occupy the fortress, wait for the enemy to tire, and attack from high ground. Only then will this be possible.

If the two armies really come to a head-on battle, the casualty ratio between the same types of soldiers will not reach two.

They both have one head on two shoulders, so how can you kill two by yourself?

Seeing that Liu Bei didn't believe him, Liu Yu didn't explain much. In this era that relies on famous generals, the potential of the soldiers under him has not been fully tapped.

The idea that it is easy to get thousands of soldiers but difficult to get a good general is deeply rooted in people's minds.

This is not surprising. The soldiers participating in the wars of this era are no longer the nobles of many years ago. The comprehensive ability of the soldiers is generally low. They are illiterate and have no ideals. The only purpose of most of them joining the army is to have a bite to eat and not starve to death in this era.

Having witnessed too many separations and deaths in this era, Liu Yu understands this situation very well.

When material life is difficult to guarantee, spiritual pursuits are simply empty talk.

Wang Yue arrived at the training ground at some point. He looked at the soldiers training on the field, and there was an inexplicable solemnity in his eyes.

Although he had never seen this kind of training method, he could see some clues from it.

Although the project seems simple, the training content is very comprehensive.

Physical strength, endurance, agility and flexibility can all be trained.

If they continue training in this way, it won’t take long before these people’s abilities will be significantly improved.
