Sixty-three new officials take office
The Changshui Captain's subordinates were ethnic minority cavalrymen who were subordinate to the Han Dynasty, and they were added during the reign of Emperor Wu of Han.
By this time, it may not be all cavalry from the Wuwan, Xianbei, Xiongnu, and Han cavalry.
The cavalry commanded by Guo Peng included about 150 Wuwan and the Hun cavalry, and the rest, including those led by Guo Peng himself, were all Han cavalry.
However, these Wuhuan people and the Xiongnu were also people who joined the Han Dynasty. They all spoke Chinese language and were familiar with the military rules of the Han army.
Originally, Guo Peng was not familiar with the 350-man Changshui Cavalry, and it would take time to get familiar with it, but Guo Peng had a natural advantage.
Guo Jin and Guo Tu want to help Guo Shan deal with the crisis in their hometown. Guo Peng has Guo Huo by his side. He has been in the Changshui Captain's troops for almost two years and is familiar with these people.
Taking advantage of Guo Huo's familiarity with them, Guo Peng quickly got to know more than a dozen of the 350 officers, including Han people, Wuwan people and Xiongnu people.
After the initial running-in, Guo Peng established his position as Sima of Changshui and began to perform his powers.
These 350 cavalrymen and Guo Peng’s own thirty soldiers have received systematic training and can cooperate with each other.
But the 137 goose heroes who followed Guo Peng did not understand the military rules, they needed to be familiar with the military rules.
So Guo Peng sent someone to explain the key points of the military's cooperation and combat, and set rules.
"You are willing to follow Guo, and Guo thanks you, but you must know that going to the battlefield is a fatal matter, not a verbal word, but a real thing. On the battlefield, Guo is Sima of Changshui, and you are a cavalry under Guo's command. Obeying orders is the most important thing. Do you understand?"
"clear!"
Although the sound is loud, I can't hear much urgency.
"Guo said ugly words ahead. If you want to withdraw, there is still a chance now. Give me a stick of incense. Those who are willing to withdraw will be able to leave now. Guo will never stop him and will meet again in the future. If you do not withdraw, you must be prepared to live and die with Guo. Your life will be controlled by Guo."
When Guo Peng said this, some rangers felt that they were being despised.
"I will naturally repay Guo Lang with the favor! Now that I withdraw, where is the qualification to continue to be a hero? I would rather die than retreat!"
"I would rather die than retreat!"
A group of people shouted.
"Okay! I would rather die than retreat. You must remember this vow! If you want to regret it, there is still a last chance now. If you burn out a stick of incense, you will have no way out. If you want to withdraw, you will die!"
Guo Peng pulled out his first knife in the middle ring and inserted it hard into the ground. The sword inserted several inches into the ground, which was not like a joke at all.
The rangers felt the meaning and his will for the first time the words Guo Peng said. Some people were upset, some people didn't care, and some people wanted to quit, but they were embarrassed.
A stick of incense has passed, and they are all staying whether they want to save face or really don’t care.
Guo Peng pulled out the ring-headed knife and put it in the sheath.
"You all stayed and be soldiers under Guo's command. Okay, Guo thanks you. From now on, you will be Guo's brothers of life and death. As long as Guo has a bite of food, you will not be hungry. You are injured. Guo will do his best to rescue you. If you die, Guo will support your family."
"Guo Lang..."
Several people seemed to be moved.
However, Guo Peng immediately changed his tone and his tone became very strict.
"But! Since he is Guo's life and death brother, respect Guo as the general, he must act according to the orders! If he does not obey Guo's orders, he will kill him! Retreat in the face of battle and kill him! He will burn, kill him and loot him and kill him! He will shake the morale of the army and kill him!"
Guo Peng yelled out four kills in a stern tone, which not only shocked the rangers, but also shocked the rest of the cavalry, including the Xiahou brothers and Cao Ren, who were all shocked.
"It's not just you, but the remaining soldiers, you are all the same! Since Guo took you to the battlefield, he will definitely regard you as brothers and sisters. He will never give up and will never leave you alone, but if he doesn't obey the orders, there will be no less four kills!"
Guo Peng glared wide, and his murderous words made people unable to doubt his determination.
He really can kill people.
This young officer with no vicious appearance and no burly figure can really kill people.
"Have you heard it clearly?!"
"I heard it clearly!"
The soldiers shouted in unison.
"I can't hear it! The sound is a little louder!"
"I heard it clearly!"
"I still can't hear it!"
"I heard it clearly!!!"
The soldiers shouted with all their might, shouting the loudest voice at the top of their voices, and Guo Peng nodded slowly.
"I heard it now. Okay, start practicing immediately! Guo Huo, how many people do you want to train them, Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ren, you can practice with you! The rest of the people come with me!"
Guo Peng divided the army into two parts, part of which was a new recruit composed of rangers. He had personal force and courage, but no organization or discipline.
What is important on the battlefield is not personal force, but team cooperation, so they must learn to cooperate with the cavalry team.
The remaining part is the original 350 cavalrymen and Guo Peng’s own 30 domestic soldiers. They are well-trained and what needs to be improved is the tacit understanding and cooperation with themselves.
Soldiers need to be familiar with the general, and the generals need to be familiar with the soldiers.
In the next few days, Guo Peng led this cavalry team to gallop around, training tactics and tactics, so that they could understand their methods of leading troops and some habits, and while testing what they learned, they also enhanced their understanding of this cavalry.
This is not smooth sailing, effective, and frictional, but with military law, it is directly punished and will not be tolerated.
In the evening, Guo Peng personally took medicine to apply to the punished soldiers and said something "heartfelt" to him. After he recovered, he became the one who obeyed the orders the most.
The same goes for meals. Guo Peng ate with them, and Guo Peng ate whatever the soldiers ate. He squatted with them and ate very simple military rations.
Military rations do not pay attention to taste, as long as they can fill their stomachs, as long as they can fill their stomachs, there were no food utensils such as iron pots, and they could not afford to eat too much meat. Military rations are mainly thick vegetable porridge.
It is the kind of porridge that adds a little salt and cuts it into a little dish, then cooks it with corn, and cooks it into a very thick porridge. It is simple and convenient, and has no other taste except a light salty smell.
Guo Peng, as a disciple of the great scholar Lu Zhi, ate the simplest and most rough military rations with them, and there was no unpleasant place at all, which greatly improved the soldiers.
Guo Peng also killed someone.
The reason for the murder was not just for anything else, but because there were several rangers who were used to eating meat and couldn't get used to the rough food in the army. They couldn't help but want to leave, so they went to Guo Peng to make him feel comfortable.
