This was a military discipline that Liu Chong had improved based on the ancient military law of seventeen laws and fifty-four beheading. Other than not carrying out orders, harassing the people, raping women, and stealing, the other military laws had been greatly reduced. Beheading would not be carried out easily. However, twenty strokes of the rod was not that good. Even if he did not die, he would lose a layer of skin.
After the announcement of the 17 Laws and 54 Slashes, the guards who had been standing there listlessly a moment ago were immediately stimulated to perk up. They tried their best to stand up straight, not daring to move.
It seemed that this display of power was not bad. Seeing that the guards had some initial sense of discipline, Liu Chong nodded in satisfaction. However, it was necessary to give a strong pressure to a troop. Otherwise, there would be no way to manage it. However, being tough was not the way to govern the army. Only by paying equal attention to kindness and intimidation was the right way. Otherwise, not only would it not be able to restrain the troops, but it would also cause them to have a rebellious heart, which was not conducive to the stability of the morale of the army.
After listening to the military discipline officer announce the military discipline, Liu Chong continued,"As long as a village, team, or even individual performs well in training, in addition to the promised salary, this king will also reward them. Just like Dian Wei and Chen Dao, I will reward them handsomely when they run to the front during the recruitment. Whoever makes a contribution later on, this king will also reward them heavily.”
The guards, who had been so scared by the word 'beheaded' that they had forgotten what was going on, finally recovered when they heard that they could still be rewarded for their meritorious service if they performed well in training and combat. However, they still did not dare to move, afraid that they would violate military discipline if they moved.
"Alright, all the station chiefs will go to the hall for a meeting. The rest of the brothers will be brought back by the captain!”
"Understood!" Thousands of people agreed in unison.
The meeting hall of the Crouching Tiger Castle was located in the center of the core area. The entire hall was very spacious and could accommodate hundreds of people standing at the same time. There were only a few people in the empty hall.
Liu Chong sat on the chair in the middle and called out to the station chiefs,"Everyone, please take a seat!"
"Thank you, Your Highness!" The five of them cupped their fists and took their seats on the stools prepared in the hall.
"Everyone here is this king's confidant. I wonder if you have any good suggestions for the training of these guards?”Liu Chong asked. This was his habit. Before deciding on something, he liked to discuss it with the people who were executing it, or guide them to move closer to his own ideas, and then put forward his own opinions. This way, the people below could more accurately understand his intentions.
"Your Highness, although the military discipline and reward methods have been announced today, these are not enough. With the situation of the entire army gathering today, the guards still need more time to train.”Zhang Ping was the first to stand up and offer advice.
"Yes!" Liu Chong nodded approvingly at Zhang Ping's suggestion and looked at the remaining station chiefs.
The people who were swept by his gaze could not help but lower their heads in shame. Everyone had seen the performance of their respective soldiers just now. The performance of these four villages was indeed not worthy of praise. As village chiefs, they had committed the crime of dereliction of duty.
"Your subordinates have failed to control our subordinates. Your Highness, please punish us!”The four of them exchanged glances and stood up to apologize.
At least he still had some self-awareness. Liu Chong thought in his heart and said in satisfaction,"Considering that this is your first offense and the soldiers are not familiar with each other, I won't pursue this matter this time. However, in the following training, don't have any distracting thoughts.”
"Yes, sir!"
There was a reason for Liu Chong to say this. The intensity of the training plan he had developed for the recruits was unimaginable. He had developed it according to the training requirements of the special forces. Because of the tight time, according to the news brought by Divine Doctor Hua, the pressure brought by Runan Yellow Turban alone was not small, not to mention the movements of other dukes. This forced him to use extreme measures to make the troops into combat effectiveness as soon as possible.
However, with the Five Animal Frolics as the basic Qigong for Qi circulation and fitness, he believed that most soldiers would be able to withstand this period of demonic training.
"This is the training outline I prepared. Everyone, take a look first!”As he spoke, he distributed the training outline that he had already prepared to everyone.
The training was divided into four parts: formation, physical fitness, combat skills, and special training. The formation time was about half a month, while physical fitness training and combat skills training took up most of the time, which was three months. As for the special training, it was arranged to be carried out in the last half a month, so the total time was only about four months. From September to January of the following year, Liu Chong estimated that the Yellow Turban Army in Runan would start to take action in spring at the latest, because that was also the time when they were in short supply. It was time to fight for a big fight. With the urge of their stomachs, the Yellow Turban soldiers 'desire to fight would be much stronger in a battle where they could not only eliminate Liu Chong but also snatch food. Therefore, four months of training time was the longest time he could estimate.
However, this was exactly what Liu Chong wanted. As long as everything went smoothly, even if the Yellow Turban soldiers in Runan did not come to find trouble with him, he was prepared to send troops to attack them. On the one hand, he could test the results of the training. On the other hand, no matter how well the soldiers who had never been to the battlefield were trained, they would not have real combat power. Before fighting with a stronger opponent, it was best to have the Yellow Turban soldiers as training targets.
The entire hall was silent. The five of them quietly flipped through the training plan. Many of the training programs listed in it were unheard of. Moreover, if they trained according to the listed training intensity, they were not sure if the soldiers could adapt to such a high intensity. It was not easy for them to complete such high-intensity training.
Seeing everyone's difficult expressions, Liu Chong knew that his plan had frightened these important subordinates. This was something that he had expected, but doing extraordinary things in extraordinary times required some extraordinary means.
