After conquering the land of Liaodong, it has been almost half a year since I returned to Chang'an, Liaodong has been very calm, well, at least on the surface it is very harmonious, Datang, Baekje, Silla, everyone at least on the surface is peaceful coexistence, Liaodong is now the latest Dao of the Tang Dynasty, there are 30,000 soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, another 20,000 Hu cavalry, 10,000 archers sent by the Ya tribes, a total of 60,000 troops stationed in Liaodong Road.

And no one thought that a conflict incident made the students of the Tang Military Academy surprise everyone, two months ago, the leader of a small tribe of the Yan Dynasty did not believe in evil, wanted to get rich and wanted to go crazy, with a vote of Liaodong barbarians screamed out of the forest and raided a farm on the edge of Changbai Mountain, most of the people fled into the cement city in time.

However, there are still a few people who did not get away in time were poisoned, when these Liaodong barbarians came to the cement city with bare arms and swords, and wanted to break the walled city and loot it, only to find that they were wrong, the solid surname of the walled city built of cement masonry was out of the preparatory department of these Liaodong barbarians, there were not many Tang troops in the stone village, and there were only about 20 people stationed, but these more than 20 people took advantage of the cover of the strong village, but killed more than 10 Liaodong barbarians of more than 100 people, but they couldn't even break through the walled gate, Three days later, a group of about 200 Datang elites drove a total of 582 men, women, and children from this tribe out of the mountains and forests.

Three of the murderers were personally interrogated by Zhang Jian, the governor of Liaozhou, in the city of Liaozhou, in front of more than 10,000 people of all ethnic groups, and were hanged.

This group of people is the elite collective of the Datang Military Academy that I left for Duan Yunsong at that time, and it is also the only trump card in my hand, and the combat ability trained by the standards of special forces can be called the best military armament in the army: the Tiger Ben Army, among which there are several intelligence officers of the Jinju Academy who have stayed in Liaodong for many years, and it is their close cooperation that has allowed them to take down the entire tribe without losing one person.

---------------------------------------------------- the deeds of Duan Yunsong and others shocked some Liaodong barbarians who wanted to plunder the property of the people who were engaged in development in Liaodong by the Tang Dynasty, and let them know that they should not cause trouble, otherwise, there would be no good fruit to eat. Ordinary people of Datang, if you dare to move, it is best to be able to withstand such consequences. It also allowed the officers and soldiers at all levels in Liaodong to see the combat ability and planning ability of the teaching regiment of the Datang Military Academy.

It also made the Tang officials and soldiers stationed in Liaodong, as well as those subjects and tribes such as Baekje and Silla who were originally a little unwilling, all the forces appear much more docile, at least making the local officials deal with some related matters much more smoothly than before.

The cadets of the Datang Military Academy, who were assigned to various units as lower-level officers, strictly organized and trained the army, but did not use corporal punishment methods, and strengthened the political and ideological education of the troops, and a series of modes of army management, so that the military style and military appearance of the officers and men of the entire Liaodong departments were neatly organized, and the political and ideological education and military-civilian relations also became harmonious.

Moreover, the competition in carrying out various military projects in the army has allowed the spirit of teamwork and cooperation to grow in the hearts of the soldiers. Even Xue Wanche, who has always been unfriendly with people and does not like anyone to look at him, praised the middle and lower-level officers sent by the academy in his report to Uncle Li.

The old man listened to Xue Aiqing's words, originally he was going to lead the army in person, but he didn't expect Duan Qing to take the initiative to ask for help, at that time Xue Aiqing thought that Duan Yunsong was capable, so he pulled such a few people to go, in case of defeat, who would take the responsibility, but Duan Yunsong actually made a military order on the spot, Xue Qing was still not at ease in the end, and sent a thousand people to follow, but before the people arrived, they had already received the news that the entire Yan Ya Department was ended, hahaha. This Yunsong, the old man really underestimated him, but a virtuous son-in-law? I heard what Xue Qing said, what is the name of this group of people led by Duan Yunsong? It seems to be different from ordinary academy soldiers. ”

I nodded: "Exactly, their series is different from ordinary academy students, and the younger son-in-law calls them the Tiger Army." I hope that Your Majesty will forgive me. ”

Uncle Li raised his eyebrows, gently tapped his forehead with his finger and said with a smile: "Tiger Ben, the army is strong, and the righteousness is like a tiger running to chase the beast, hehehe, you kid, you are very good at tricks, according to the records of Zhou Li, there were Hu Ben in the officials of the Xia Dynasty, and there were Hu Ben Zhonglang generals and Hu Ben Lang in the Han Dynasty, which were used in successive dynasties until they were abolished in our dynasty." It's good for you to put this name on their heads, well, deserve it, the old man doesn't blame you, but I want to ask you, why are there only so few people?! ”

"Father-in-law, it's not easy to choose a tiger soldier! Father-in-law, you also know that there are more than 10,000 students in my military academy, all of whom are elites screened by my Datang prefectures and guards, but the requirements of this tiger soldier are too strict, and the son-in-law has lowered the requirements, and a total of 500 people have only been selected, but there are 200 tiger soldiers who were sent to the south for training by the son-in-law before the expedition to Liaodong. I said to Uncle Li with a bitter face.

If it weren't for Uncle Li's sudden request to let Duan Yunsong stay in such an unfamiliar place, and in order to train the team, I decided to transfer some of it to Duan Yunsong, otherwise, no one would want to take a tiger warrior from me, and now I have sent two hundred people to the land of Huguang, so that they can get acquainted with the hot and humid climate of the south and learn more experience for the temperate tropical jungle operations.

"What?!" Uncle Li's eyes almost popped out: "I said virtuous son-in-law, aren't you bluffing the old man?" There is no soldier handed over to you by the old man who cannot be called an elite person, and you can only choose 500 tiger warriors from among them? ”

"Father-in-law, don't worry, let your son-in-law explain you in detail, and you will understand. For me, the soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army of the Datang Military Academy, the first thing is loyalty! That's one of ......"

After all, I am also a reserve officer, and I know more about what special forces are than ordinary people.

---------------------------------------------------- Tiger Army is not so progressive, in fact, it is equivalent to the special forces of later generations, they are the top tactical skills in the academy, they are all very strong in single combat ability, stoic, and better at small group cooperation. However, what is more important is that they are loyal, and they are absolutely tough characters, with strong physique, strong perseverance and endurance, and can adapt to different combat environments to the greatest extent.

The Tiger Ben Army I need is not just the elite of the Tang Dynasty in the ordinary sense, because they often have to carry out short-term and high-risk operations in the heart of the enemy, face unimaginable military and psychological pressure, and it is difficult for them to successfully carry out combat missions without extraordinary observation, judgment and determination. A tiger sergeant must not only learn to shoot, fight, and assassinate with a bow and crossbow, but also master all the current standard weapons of the Tang Dynasty, including mortar and artillery technology, the use of grenades, gunpowder blasting and other skills, but also learn to use sign language communication communication, swimming, skiing, climbing, enemy group vigilance, reconnaissance, search, capture, rescue and other technical and tactical skills, but also master the prevention and control of some diseases, the identification of edible wild animals and plants, and the language and customs of the intended combat area. These are difficult to achieve without a good level of literacy and understanding.

The above is just the entry level, and after entering, you will face more rigorous training and the possibility of elimination layer by layer.

Uncle Li's face was already green, not to mention Uncle Li, Zhao Kun, who was squatting behind him and kept puffing out his chest muscles just now, the expression of this leader in the Tang Dynasty was not good, every time he heard me say something, Zhao Kun's face was soaked with a few more drops of sweat.

I looked at Uncle Li's expression and continued to hit Uncle Li's proud self-confidence just now: "Their usual training is different, they get up at the end of the day and run 5,000 meters cross-country with weights, or swim 2,000 meters with weights in their clothes...... It is necessary to carry out field survival training once a month, and survive in the field for seven days with three days' rations, of course, it is necessary to carry the special ordnance and survival supplies of the Tiger Ben Army on their backs fully armed, and on the way, they must also carry out all kinds of breakouts, counter-breakouts, reconnaissance of the enemy's situation, climbing cliffs and other exercise tasks......"

Uncle Li's brows trembled for a long time, and his throat couldn't help but pull out a chicken voice and asked, "This, can this still be called a soldier?" It's no wonder that this doesn't toss people to death! Son-in-law, what do you want to do? ”
