Liu Mang did not know that his casual words had won the hearts of these one thousand and eighty-five men.
Liu Mang did not command more than a thousand men. The military system was five men in a platoon, ten men in a squad, fifty men in a platoon, one hundred men in a platoon, one hundred men in a platoon, one hundred men in a platoon, one hundred men in a platoon, one hundred men in a platoon, one hundred men in a platoon, one hundred men in a platoon, one marquis, and one thousand men in a unit. Liu Mang himself was a lieutenant, and Chengyu was a major.
The eighty-five veterans under Liu Mang were all promoted to squad leaders and captains by Liu Mang. Chengyu and Liu Mang stayed behind. Boss Lu wanted Chengyu to be his deputy general, so he had to give the position of deputy to Chengyu. If he was not around, Liu Mang would be the commanding officer of the entire battalion.
Liu Mang had also thought of the name of his battalion. 21st century. What was the strongest army? Two words: urban management. What was the strongest soldier? Four words: urban management.
Therefore, Liu Mang's battalion was named the City Guard. Lend me three thousand urban management, and I dare to dominate the world.
When all the squad leaders and captains were in place, Liu Mang gave the order. Everyone thought that Liu Mang would lead them to practice martial arts, but they did not expect Liu Mang to lead them to get some sun.
Martial arts? If Liu Mang knew martial arts, then there would be pigs. Those who did not even have a combat strength of five should not embarrass themselves. Even Chengyu was a second-rate general.
The only thing Liu Mang can do now is to organize the army. The first step of the military training was like this.
"Hanyang has already led his troops to stand for half a day?!" Lü Bu listened to the soldier's report with a strange expression. What kind of general would let his subordinates stand? The sun was high up in the sky, how could they improve their combat strength just by standing? Lü Bu had a headache. He felt that it was a mistake to give Liu Mang troops.
"Where's Chengyu? Didn't you stop him?! " Lü Bu inquired. Lü Bu didn't know about this young general before. However, during the Battle of Kaiyang in Xiapi, Chengyu performed extremely well. If it wasn't for the fact that he had to establish his own troops for Liu Mang, perhaps Chengyu would have already appeared in Gao Shun's Formation Breaker or Zhang Liao's Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry. Lü Bu even had the thought of making him his personal guard.
"No, Major Cheng is also standing!" The soldier replied.
"Huh?!" Although Lü Bu frowned, he didn't immediately stop them. Instead, he waved his hand and dismissed the soldiers. "Stand? And stand with a certain posture? "
That's right. Currently, the entire City Guard was standing. Under the scorching sun, everyone's legs were numb and their bodies were covered in sweat. However, none of the 1,085 people dared to complain because their general, Liu Mang, was also standing in the field.
"Yes, your feet should be closer together and your toes should be separated by sixty degrees! What, you're asking what sixty degrees is?! " Liu Mang was helpless. In his previous life, the most basic requirement to be a soldier was a high school diploma. But now, Liu Mang was facing a bunch of soldiers. Not to mention high school, even kindergarten children in his previous life would know more than him.
"Sixty degrees is. Clench your hands into fists and place them between your feet. That's sixty degrees!" Liu Mang didn't expect them to be accurate, but they should at least be presentable.
"Yes, that's right! Look like a Major! " Liu Mang saw that Cheng Yu was really a natural soldier. He only had to explain the military posture once, and he was able to grasp the essence of the military posture. It was serious but not cold, dignified and dignified.
"Yes, your legs should be straight. Your lower abdomen should be slightly tucked in. Your upper body should be straight and lean forward slightly. Your shoulders should be flat and open slightly backward. Your arms should hang naturally and your fingers should be close together. Your thumb should be placed on the second joint of your index finger and your middle finger should be placed between your thighs." Your head should be straight, your neck should be straight, your mouth should be closed, your jaw should be slightly tucked in, and your eyes should be level. "Liu Mang corrected their posture one by one as if he was teaching children.
"Are you guys tired?!" Liu Mang said with a smile. Actually, it was Liu Mang himself who was tired. Damn, during the military training, he felt that the instructors were very relaxed and just stood there and gave instructions. He didn't expect it to be so tiring now.
"Tired!" The soldier standing beside Chengyu was just about to speak when he was secretly kicked by Chengyu. Under Chengyu's guidance, he instantly changed his words. "General, we are not tired!" “
Chengyu, you are doing this on purpose! " Liu Mang saw Chengyu's actions. If you guys are not tired, how can I order you to rest? If you don't order me to rest, do you want me to die of exhaustion? "
In fact, Liu Mang misunderstood Chengyu. No matter which general it was, the thing they hated the most was to hear their soldiers say they were tired during training. In their eyes, soldiers were just tools of war. If they didn't train well, how could they help them achieve their goals?
However, Liu Mang was different. He was too modern. It should be said that he had never seen a real army training. In his eyes, it was training soldiers! A general should be together with his soldiers. If he didn't take the lead, how could the soldiers be convinced?
"Tired, you are all tired. I can see it!" Liu Mang fully displayed his shameless style. If he continued training, his small body wouldn't be able to withstand it.
"Everyone, sit down. All the squad leaders and captains, go and get water under the lead of the station commanders and qu commanders!" Liu Mang had asked the cooks to boil water before the training. For Liu Mang, although the river water was clear in the end of the Han Dynasty, it wasn't clean. There were always microbes in it. If he only let the soldiers drink it, it would be bad if they got a stomachache. That was why he asked the cooks to boil water.
Boiling water was much better than drinking it directly.
After receiving the water from Chengyu, Liu Mang took a big gulp. It was too tiring. He still had to correct them one by one on such a hot day. If they couldn't do it well, he couldn't do it himself! He could only anxiously help them over and over again.
Chengyu could also see that Liu Mang was very tired. Many soldiers didn't do it well, but Liu Mang was correcting them one by one. If it was in the past, Chengyu's general would have been whipped. If they couldn't do it the first time, they would be whipped twice. If they couldn't do it the third time, they would be executed.
After drinking the water, Liu Mang found another problem. He couldn't just sit there like this! All of these soldiers were looking at him with eager eyes, making Liu Mang uncomfortable.
"That, that! Do you all know how to sing?! " Liu Mang's mind flashed. During the military training, when the instructors asked him and the others to rest, they would either talk nonsense with him or sing.
"Sing?!" Chengyu was stunned. Was this king stupid? They were training soldiers. What kind of song were they singing? Singing was something that scholar-officials only sang when they were chatting, alright?
"Yes, sing!" Liu Mang looked at them and knew that most of them didn't know how to sing. After all, what kind of people were they? Before they became soldiers, they were all farmers. They didn't even know how to write, how could they sing?
"Chengyu, do you know how to sing?!" Among them, only Chengyu was slightly more cultured.
"Yes!" Chengyu nodded.
"En?!" Liu Mang was a little surprised. Chengyu actually knew how to sing.
"But I only know one song. It was taught by my mother when she was alive!" Chengyu's eyes dimmed as he spoke. Liu Mang also knew that he touched Chengyu's sore spot. Lao Cao, Lao Cao, if you want to attack Xu Province, then attack Xu Province! If you want to settle accounts with Tao Qian, then settle accounts with him. Why did you have to massacre the city?
Liu Mang patted Chengyu's shoulder as if to encourage and comfort him. "Sing, sing in front of all your brothers!"
"General, I!" Chengyu wanted to refuse, but was stopped by Liu Mang.
"If your mother was still alive, she would also want you to live happily! Sing. Now, all of us are brothers. Didn't we say that we will live and die together, and share riches and honor together? Isn't your mother our mother as well? Sing! " After saying that, Liu Mang shouted to the soldiers below. "Let Major Cheng sing a song for us, okay?!"
"Okay!"
"Major Cheng, go ahead and sing! We are all from Xu Province. We will support you! "
"Watch!" Liu Mang said encouragingly.
"I!" Chengyu was still hesitating.
Liu Mang was angry and pushed Chengyu. "Chengyu, are you still a man? You are so shy like a woman. We brothers think highly of you, so we let you sing. Don't be so shameless!"
"General, I!" Chengyu's face turned red. "I am a man, not a woman!"
"Alright, then go ahead and sing, sing! If you don't sing, then you are a woman! "
"I will sing!" Chengyu suddenly stood up.
"Everyone, let's welcome!" Liu Mang took the lead and applauded. The soldiers below also followed suit. When had they ever heard people sing? Those who could sing were basically nobles. They were just farmers. They didn't even have enough food to eat. How could they sing?
"Qiyue Wuyi, with my son's robe. Wang Yu, with his army, repaired my spear and spear.
"Qiyue Wuyi, with my son's lake. Wang Yu, with his army, repaired my spear and halberd.
"Qiyue Wuyi, with my son's robe. Wang Yu, with his army, repaired my armor and weapons.
"Qiyue Wuyi, dear and sincere. Wang Yu, with his army, repaired my bow and crossbow.
"My chariot has attacked, my horse has followed." Four mu pang pang, driving to the east.
"Four yellow horses have ridden, two black horses have not leaped." Without losing their speed, the arrow is like a broken arrow.
"Rustling horses, leisurely galloping." Yu Yu is not alarmed.
"Wang Yu, son of Yu Zheng, heard without sound." Allow a gentleman, show great success. "
Liu Mang clapped his hands and looked at Chengyu encouragingly. Chengyu was a big man. It was really difficult for him to sing. But wasn't singing a kind of emotion? Singing with emotion, feeling with joy.
Chengyu had sung all the thoughts of missing his mother into the song.
This was a Qin song. It reflected the spirit of unity and friendship of the Qin soldiers and the spirit of fighting against a strong enemy. The whole poem was divided into three chapters. It used the tone of the soldiers. On the eve of a fierce battle, the soldiers gathered together and nervously repaired their weapons. At this time, someone was worried that he didn't have any clothes.
His comrade comforted him with friendship, "Who said we don't have any clothes?
I will wear the same battle robe with you! " Then he used righteousness to encourage his comrade, "The country is going to war. Let's repair our weapons. You and I are facing a common enemy." From the poem, one could not only see the friendship between the soldiers, but also the patriotic spirit of their willingness to make a great sacrifice when the country was in danger. The syllables of the poem were short and the tone was passionate. It vividly showed the scene of the Qin soldiers fighting a common enemy and generously joining the army.
Chengyu's mother was able to teach Chengyu this song. It showed that his late mother was not just a peasant woman.
Liu Mang saw the tears at the corner of Chengyu's eyes. A man does not cry easily. When facing Cao Jun in Xiapi, Chengyu did not shed a tear. When fighting to the death under Kaiyang, Chengyu did not shed a tear. But today, because of this song, Chengyu shed tears.
"Chengyu, you come!" Liu Mang patted this big boy. Chengyu was younger than him. He was only eighteen this year. If it was in his previous life, he would only be a child who just left high school and entered university. Good times were waiting for him. But now it was the end of the Han Dynasty. Can you imagine that this big boy had killed no less than a hundred people?
"Chengyu, look! There are more than a thousand brothers below! Your mother is gone, but you still have us brothers. Your mother is gone. If she knew that you were so unhappy, if she knew that you were not living well, do you think she would rest in peace? " Liu Mang was also an inexperienced person. But now, he had to care about a big boy who was younger than him.
"General!" Chengyu wiped the tears at the corner of his eyes.
"Your eyes need to look forward. In front of you is the light. In front of you is the Dao. Bravely charge forward. Behind you are our thousand brothers!" After saying this, Liu Mang's face suddenly turned cold.
"Commander Cheng!"
"Present!" Hearing Liu Mang call him a military commander, Chengyu stood up straight. "I have an important mission for you! This mission is to teach the thousand brothers the song your mother taught you! Is there a problem? "
"Yes!"
"Go!" Liu Mang said with a smile. Seeing Chengyu join the thousand City Guard, Liu Mang turned around. Tears were also in the corner of his eyes. After seeing Chengyu, he also missed his mother.
