After returning to the Zheng Manor, Li Chengdao stayed up all night and recorded the most practical part of the military training methods from his previous life's memories.
He wrote down all the methods such as sit-ups, push-ups, squats, pull-ups, cross-country marching, and weight-bearing running.
This was a training method that even ordinary people knew in the future. Although it was simple, it was the result of scientific research. It could train the body to the greatest extent, so it was widely used in the army.
Although there were more advanced military training methods, his army had just been formed not long ago. These basic methods were enough.
In this era, the most common training method for the army was to practice boxing, spear techniques, rock lifting, weight lifting, and so on.
Although these could also strengthen the body, the training efficiency could not be compared to the science-verified training methods of the future.
As long as he followed the training method and trained at a fixed time every day, he could easily improve his physical fitness in a short period of time and achieve the effect of training.
In addition, Li Chengdao also wrote his own opinions and implementation methods on how to shape military prestige.
For example, standing in a military posture, marching, marching, and so on.
After spending an entire night, Li Chengdao's hands were sore from writing. After sorting it out, he ordered someone to send it to Yue Fei early in the morning.
After Yue Fei received these strange training methods and various suggestions from Li Chengdao, although the contents were very surprising, he also did not understand them.
However, he still trained the soldiers according to the training methods given by Li Chengdao. At the same time, he began to build the overall discipline of the army.
Outside Kaifeng City, on a vast plain.
The 16,000 recruits were divided into ten teams and lined up in rows at the Scorching Sun Station, unable to move at all.
Seeing so many soldiers standing still, Feng Li could not help but ask in confusion,"General Yue, didn't His Highness give you the training method? Why did you let them stand here and bask in the sun?”
Hearing Feng Li's words, Yue Fei turned his head and said,""This is one of the training methods that His Highness mentioned.
The goal was to cultivate perseverance and military might, as well as goose-step. It was probably to make everyone walk in unison…This was the training content later.”
"Standing here and basking in the sun can cultivate military prestige and perseverance?”
Feng Li's eyes widened, and his tone was filled with confusion. He could not understand the relationship between the two at all.
"I don't really understand either, but since this is the method His Highness gave me, then I'll just train according to it.”
"His Highness is quick-witted and has extraordinary thoughts. How can we speculate on his thoughts?”
After Yue Fei finished speaking, he turned around and continued to supervise the soldiers for the next round of training.
……
For an entire day, Yue Fei commanded sixteen thousand recruits and practiced all the training methods that Li Chengdao gave him.
After a day of training, all sixteen thousand soldiers were sore from exhaustion.
All of them bared their teeth and sat on the drill ground, not even having the strength to move.
In the evening, Li Chengdao, who had arrived at the drill ground to inspect the training of the recruits, smiled and said in a clear voice,"
"Everyone did very well today. From now on, we will have to carry out this kind of intense training every day. It will slowly increase in the future.”
His words immediately caused all the soldiers to explode.
"We'll continue tomorrow!"
"What kind of training is this? This is torture!"
"This kind of training is already killing me. Do you want to increase it in the future?!”
"Although we're soldiers who work hard, we're still humans!”
"That's right. Who can stand it if we continue to train like this?”
……
The drill ground was in an uproar. After all the soldiers heard Yue Fei's words, the fatigue and resentment from training for a day suddenly erupted.
"Silence!"
Yue Fei's face turned cold, and his furious shout spread throughout the entire drill ground, directly suppressing the voices of all the soldiers.
But even so, how could the soldiers be convinced?
All of them looked at Li Chengdao with resentment and dissatisfaction. It was obvious that they had a lot of opinions.
Li Chengdao patted Yue Fei's shoulder to signal him to leave. Then, he walked to the front of the stage and said,"Do you think that this training intensity is too harsh and unbearable?”
"If that's what you think, you can say it. I won't blame you.”
After hearing Li Chengdao's words, the soldiers looked at each other. Finally, a brave soldier stood up and mustered his courage to say,
"That's right! Your Highness, you only move your mouth, but we have to work ourselves to death.”
"Although we were prepared to throw our lives on the battlefield when we joined the army, standing in a military posture and walking in a goose-step are completely meaningless.”
This soldier's words caused the other soldiers to echo him.
And this soldier speaking to Li Chengdao like this could be said to be extremely rude, which could be seen from the ugly expressions of Feng Li and the others.
However, not only was Li Chengdao not angry, he nodded and said,""I would like to ask, if you go to the battlefield now, how long can you live?”
The soldier who stood up paused, and the other soldiers looked at each other.
It was their first time in the army. They had only been guards for rich families and had never seen a real battlefield.
Li Chengdao continued,"I'll tell you. I only need to mobilize 3,000 white-robed soldiers to slaughter all of you."”
Li Chengdao's tone was awe-inspiring, and no one doubted the authenticity of his words. Then, he continued expressionlessly,"Your next battlefield will be Youzhou, and your enemies will be the brutal Turks!”
"Although you have just joined the army, you are still my soldiers. I don't want to personally bring you to Youzhou to die!”
"The methods that I'm training you with now are all the methods that can improve your strength to the greatest extent in the shortest time. Do you choose to work hard now so that you have more hope of survival in the future, or do you choose to die on the Youzhou battlefield in the future?”
"As for those who doubt the effectiveness of this training method, hehe, do you know the art of war, or do General Yue and I know the art of war better?”
Li Chengdao's every word seemed to strike the hearts of the soldiers, causing their minds to tremble.
Just as Li Chengdao said, the choice of life and death was in their hands!
As for deserting? According to the laws of the Great Tang, deserters would only die.
