The invasion of the mainland was originally just a beautiful fantasy, and fantasy could never become reality. Even if it developed to this point, there was not much hope. However, at this moment, Feng Li saw hope. If His Royal Highness knew about military affairs, then everything might not be impossible.
Feng Li quickly began to take action. The first step was to select the candidates. Although these 1,000 people seemed to meet the requirements, it was impossible to recruit all of them. Therefore, they had to be screened.
The selection criteria were simple. It was the off-road training with weights proposed by Li Chengdao. 20 kilograms, 10 kilometers of off-road training with weights. Those who passed were qualified, and those who failed were eliminated.
It was simple, clear, and full of loopholes. However, in this era, this was undoubtedly the most suitable and simplest recruitment condition. No matter how complicated it was, it was impossible for the current level of the base to come up with it.
The selection process soon began. Thousands of people began to cross the country on foot. Their target was Jie's tribe. At this time, the distance between them was about ten kilometers. Of course, there might be some differences, but it did not matter. Li Chengdao only needed knowledge to carry out a preliminary selection.
Weight-bearing, preparation, proceeding.
The 1,000 people rushed out of the base and onto the cement road. It had to be said that their off-road was actually relatively simple. In order to better communicate with each other, many cement roads were built here, so their road was extremely flat and there would not be too much trouble.
Unfortunately, even now, it was not so easy to complete the 20-kilogram, 10-kilometer cross-country, especially after most of them rushed out. Li Chengdao had to worry that none of them would pass, and then the joke would be big.
However, worry was just worry. The endurance and physical fitness of the natives, no, to be more precise, the physical fitness of the people from a thousand years ago was not on the same level as the greenhouse flowers of the future. In this era, as long as everyone could survive, they were the victors of nature.
In all aspects, he had reached a level that the future generations could not compare to.
Therefore, when the cross-country race was completed very quickly, less than one-third of the more than 1,000 people were eliminated. There were still nearly 900 people. Moreover, many of these one-third people were eliminated because they were too excited and wanted to perform too much. They ran too fast and couldn't keep up with the pace. Otherwise, there would only be more people who passed.
This result made Li Chengdao speechless and shocked.
However, since all of them had passed, no matter how many people there were, he could not kick some of them out. There was no need to do so. Although he currently had 3,000 soldiers, there was no doubt that these people were a little too few, especially in the current situation. There was a huge tribe in the south. 3,000 people were far from enough.
This was not a problem of insufficient strength, but a problem of insufficient numbers. Even if his 3,000 people could crush everything, how many people were there in the entire Native American tribe?
One million, ten million, or even more, no one knew. What was known was that even if the Native Americans in the later generations had been massacred, the number of people had already exceeded nearly ten million. Even if there were no more, there were probably about that many now. Even if 3,000 people could crush everything, it would still be a bundle in the ocean.
He did not intend to use force to plunder it, but he still needed to make the necessary preparations. Therefore, whether it was 800 or 1,000, he could accept it.
After passing the test, it was soon time to regroup or rearrange the military system.
Unlike the later generations and the Great Tang, this was a brand-new military system that Li Chengdao and Feng Li had come up with after discussion.
Eight people were in a gang, with a gang leader and two deputy leaders. Three gangs were in a fifth, with a fifth captain and two deputy captains. Three fifths were in a tenth, with a tenth captain and two deputy chiefs. Three tenth captains were in a Cao, with a Cao captain and two deputy captains. Three Cao's were in a battalion, with a battalion commander and two battalion commanders. Three battalions were in an army, which was the commander, and the deputy commanders (all the commanders were pronounced the second).
This was the military system that Li Chengdao and Feng Li had discussed. The battalion commander and the commander were slightly different from the later generations. The battalion commander was roughly equivalent to a brigade commander in the later generations, while the commander was slightly smaller than the number of soldiers in the later generations.
Of course, the current establishment was the famous Three Corps Army system in the future. It was said to be an absolute existence that could not be broken apart.
Although reality might not be that exaggerated, it was clear that this three-thirds system was simpler and clearer than the chaotic military system of the Great Tang. Of course, Li Chengdao did not set up any instructors. There was no need for that, and there was no need for that.
Firstly, in a war with cold weapons, doing so was basically courting death. Secondly, his mental network was more reliable than any instructor, so there was naturally no need for that.
After the 800 soldiers were divided into three armies, these 900 soldiers were divided into two Cao's. Of course, none of these people had a share, be it the captain, sergeant, or captain. There were Chinese soldiers stationed among them.
This was not to prevent anything, but no matter what race they were facing, if they wanted to quickly gain combat power, they would first have to rely on the low-level officers. It was likely that the Native Americans would not be able to form much combat power in a few years. With these Chinese soldiers, especially those who had followed Li Jiancheng through life and death, they could instantly change the temperament of the entire army.
Such an effect was definitely much better than pure training. As for what would happen later, Li Chengdao would naturally slowly transfer those Chinese soldiers and let the Native Americans gradually take over. However, they would also only be at the bottom. Only when power was in their hands would they be considered as power.
Although he did not need to worry about other problems, he still had to complete everything well after a hundred years. At the very least, he did not want to cause trouble for his descendants.
It was still too early for people to think about this. Under the acceleration of time, his time would not wear down. This meant that he had at least three times the time of others. Under such circumstances, it was enough for him to complete everything and even prepare for all the consequences.
