It seems a little longer in a year, and there is no need.

He also sighed directly: "Training for a year? Does it take so long?"

Liu Mingqi said without hesitation: "Training for a year is too little. It takes two years of training to use the Qi Jiguang array to be superb. Basically, you can never lose your disadvantage when you encounter an imperial guard."

This was how Grandpa Qi was back then.

Hu Zongxian asked Qi Jiguang to train troops. He originally agreed to train for two years, but when he encountered a critical situation in Jiangnan, he asked Qi Jiguang to go out in advance.

Qi Jiguang wrote back to him and told him that I could attack, but such an army was not what I wanted, and it would definitely not have any good results.

If you can wait for me for another year, I dare to guarantee you that they are your trump card and no Japanese pirates are afraid of.

Hu Zongxian was also a ruthless person. He wrote back and told him that you don’t need it anymore, I’ll wait for you for a year.

Then he personally led the army to fight the Japanese pirates for a year.

Everyone will know the next story. After the Qi family army formed an army, they were invincible and fought from Jiangnan to Mobei, and never lost.

So now in Liu Mingqi's eyes, even these trained soldiers were at best 30 combat power, and they could not even pass the test.

But using them to deal with some Japanese warriors is also qualified.

At least under the strong pressure of life and death, and under the stimulation of a reward of one hundred and two dozen people, there will be no humiliation of thousands of people being chased away by dozens of Japanese slaves.

Miao Yanzheshou smiled and said, "This is thanks to the fact that I am now in Jiangnan, Huai'an City, one of the most prosperous areas. Otherwise, the food for these 5,000 people alone would be enough for me to have a headache."

As mentioned earlier, ordinary soldiers usually do exercises every five days, and the training intensity is not high.

It’s not because the generals were perfunctory, but because the actual conditions were limited.

They are both strong men in their twenties and thirties. They have nothing to do on weekdays and can do three bowls of white rice. Even if they are wild vegetables and steamed buns, they can eat ten.

Training must be a physical exhaustion. If you train for a day, you only give them two bowls of rice or drink some porridge. After practicing so many times more than a dozen times, these soldiers will be defeated and become useless people.

Why?

The calories and energy intake are far from being able to offset the continuous huge consumption, so they have been unable to make ends meet, so of course their bodies will collapse.

But if you let them eat openly to replenish energy and grow muscles, then you can forget about this amount of consumption.

On average, a sergeant consumes five kilograms of food a day, which is easy.

If you exercise more, you can eat about ten pounds a day.

For example, the 300 guards and Qianniu guards trained by Liu Mingqi, they ate four meals a day, and they only ate so much.

Don't think it's exaggerating.

You can see the workers on the construction site and you will know that eating two pounds of rice and one pound of meat and vegetables is easy to eat.

People who think it is incredible simply eat too much other foods and calories, so they think eating so much is exaggerating.

Calculate it.

Even if one person consumes five kilograms a day, five thousand people will have 25,000 kilograms of grain. In a month, it will be 750,000 kilograms and more than 6,200 stones.

Three months are 20,000 shi.

Such heavy consumption can only be borne by a place as rich as Jiangnan, and only the richest yamen in Jiangnan, the canal transportation yamen.

Although the canal transportation yamen is leaking everywhere now, the lean camels are bigger than horses, and their background is still very strong.

Not to mention anything else, the most important passage for businessmen to do business is the Grand Canal.

If you want to sail on the Grand Canal, the first thing you cannot offend is the canal transportation yamen.

So if the Caoyun Yamen wants to buy rice, how much does it cost to offer?

One percent cheaper than the market price?

Thinking too much!

At most, it's half price!

The canal transportation yamen is so arrogant!

Of course, after Miao Yan arrived at the Cao Transportation Office, he must have been not so cruel and greedy.

He bought it according to the market price, and the price is much cheaper than in the capital.

Miao Yan talked about food consumption, and Liu Mingqi also thought of a question: "Mr. Miao, if the Japanese attacked and destroyed agricultural production and snatched food, the price of food will definitely rise! You'd better hoard more!"

Miao Yan nodded immediately with a sudden realization and quickly ordered Su Zishan, who was standing not far behind him, to come over, and gave him a few instructions to buy food as soon as possible.

"The transactions in Jiangnan are really convenient and fast. You can make a deal by signing and sealing the letters directly with Fei Ge to sign and seal them. Then we send someone to buy them with money and transport them back." Miao Yan sighed, "It would be great when will the whole world be so convenient to do business."

"After becoming rich, people's thinking and concepts continue to improve, and these things can be spread." Liu Mingqi responded with a smile.

This is the same as modern mobile payments.

Although many of the farmers are illiterate, they may not even have bank cards.

But they skipped this link directly. Mobile payment is used very well, and is more skillful than those in advanced and advanced societies in Europe and the United States.

So don’t worry too much. The people’s life wisdom is born and very powerful.

By the way, Liu Mingqi admired the way Fei Ge delivered the letter in this world, and she had reached a new level.

Military, government affairs, commercial use, etc.... All kinds of industries are inseparable from this convenient transmission method and are used very frequently.

Especially in Jiangnan.

Liu Mingqi has been to Jiangnan these days. While watching the scenery of Jiangnan on the boat on the way, she saw at least thousands of carrier pigeons flying around in the air.

This is how it is during the day.

The same is true at night.

This shows how developed the business in Jiangnan is and how fast various changes are.

It is precisely this pursuit of efficiency that has made them spend a lot of effort on the cultivation and evolution of carrier pigeons. Today's carrier pigeons have evolved to a much worse degree than modern ones.

That's why the Cao family suffered so much before.

In his thoughts, Miao Yan pointed another point and said, "Your Highness, I wonder if the person you wrote about is given priority selection. Is this to stimulate their cooperation ability?"

"right."

Liu Mingqi said: "Only their relatives and friends are still in this army, they will not give up easily. Even if they die, they hope to leave a way out for the other party. Why worry about lack of morale in an army with such beliefs?"

As we all know, ancient Rome had an extremely powerful army.

During their heyday, they usually fought with one to ten, and they won most of the time.

Why?

It sounds a bit awkward.

The soldiers they organized in the same team were either brothers and friends or companions.

You read that right.

It's a companion.

Although the love between strong and strong men is a bit creepy, it is true that the ancient Romans have always done this.

So think about it, will they fight for their own brothers and friends and for their lovers?

Including the famous Spartan 300 heroes in Hot Spring Pass, this is basically the same configuration.

Only three hundred people fought against 200,000 Persia, which was purely bragging. They also had other coalition forces, with a total of about 10,000.

But the most outstanding one is indeed the 300 warriors led by the king.

All right.

Come back to your eyes.

Naturally, Liu Mingqi couldn't be so disgusting, so when he was learning from it, he adopted Grandpa Qi's style.

All of them choose neighbors, brothers, relatives, etc., so that everyone can get together and fight an astonishing battle for victory and life.

Miao Yan also understood the truth, and he smiled and said, "It is definitely a good thing for these people to get together to fight, but it is even more troublesome to manage!"

“It’s very simple.”

Liu Mingqi said, "You saw that I added the law of the sergeant in the military law? It's targeting them! If you make a mistake, not only you will be punished, but your brothers will be punished. If you are wrong, the whole team will be executed... Sir, do you think they dare to take it lightly and dare to disobey the slander?"

"Don't dare."

Miao Yan smiled.

As a major official of the Legalists, he certainly knew the role of strict laws.

When on the battlefield, strict laws play an extremely important role.

But there must be a prerequisite, and rewards and punishments must be clearly distinguished.

You can't always deal with warriors harshly and don't even give them a bite of shit.

If this continues, either the morale is low or the direct "anti-fucking" is directly.

As long as you give them hope and hope to change their destiny, they will move forward desperately regardless of life and death.
To be continued...
