Chapter 46: Training

Yingyi's eyesight is detached, although it is far away and the sky is not good, but it can see clearly.

Zheng Liu is practicing strength and playing stone locks. The stone lock looked rough, presumably fresh. And Zheng Wu and Zheng Jiu were practicing the killing method.

One punch and one kick, as powerful as a knife, every move and every style is to go to the vital point. The opening and closing are concise, without the slightest fancy, which is better than the so-called martial arts hundreds of years later. This is an authentic killing technique, and it seems to be a military technique.

The essence of so-called martial arts is killing. If you add martial arts and forbearance or something, then it is not martial arts. The origin of martial arts originated from the ancient times when the ancestors competed with nature and wild beasts, and came into being along with killing and fighting.

Compared with wild beasts, man is not as strong as his bones and bones, and his claws and teeth are not as good as his teeth. But people have wisdom and know how to summarize and think. In this process, summarize and think of the method of killing, which is martial arts. In the beginning, man, like a beast, had no tools, so he was also a fist and a minion. But the fists, feet, and minions were no stronger than the beasts, and so the weapon was born.

Weapons are the tools used in martial arts.

People say that martial arts are stopping, but Yingyi doesn't see it that way. It is clearly a handful of gos on people's heads, and it is a killing elephant.

The real holy place of Wu is in the army. Because the army specializes in killing.

It's not those things that don't last in the middle of winter, what rivers and lakes, what heroes, what powerful characters. A truly powerful person, always in the army. Practicing the techniques handed down by the predecessors, there are more people who kill and kill, and when you have experience, you will naturally be powerful.

Therefore, the killing method in the army is the most ferocious and violent.

There are no twists and turns, no fancy superfluous. The most direct, as soon as you do it, you will take people's lives.

All kinds of martial arts are designed to adapt to the use of weapons. Therefore, in fist and foot kung fu, the shadow of weapons can often be seen. The killing method practiced by Zheng Wu and Zheng Jiu at this time is the use of the knife. Direct, sharp, but not pretty. There is also a move to dodge by rolling on the ground.

Ying Yi looked at it for a while and understood that it was probably the killing method of the knife player.

The knife player, that is, the sword and shield soldier, holds a knife in one hand and a shield in the other. Kill with a knife, block with a shield, the posture on the battlefield is very low, especially in the face of cavalry, there are many movements of rolling on the ground. With a shield pad, a roll, and a knife cut off the leg of the cavalryman's horse.

The image is not good, but it is practical.

Ying Yi naturally doesn't look at the use of the shield, only the killing method of the knife. He also uses knives, but has always won by brute force. Don't talk about any tricks.

However, Ying Yi also admits that if you have outstanding skills, you can do the most with the least effort.

Zheng Wu's killing method is very simple, just a few moves back and forth, all of which are the most basic uses of knives. It is mainly chopped and chopped, supplemented by cutting. Fierce and fierce, violent and fierce. Both of them are quite powerful, they probe their palms like knives, and the sound of the wind is whirring, which is very powerful.

Ying Yi looked at it for a while, and Zheng Wuxian practiced the knife and card killing method. Later, when I practiced the killing method of two-handed swords, there was no way to use the shield. But it's more suitable for Yingyi.

He looked carefully, and with outstanding eyesight, he analyzed every movement of Zheng Wu, and even secretly reversed the movement and ventilation of Zheng Wu's muscles and bones when he came out of the knife, which was the real essence.

At this time, the sound of shouting and scolding came from a distance, waking up Yingyi.

Ying Yi reminisced for a moment, and then he followed the direction from which the noisy sound came from and arrived at the valley where the army was training. At this time, more than 3,000 soldiers and horses had already begun to assemble and prepare for breakfast.

Ying Yi also went to make up for a meal, and then went back to the cave and fed the tiger cub. Finally, after thinking about it, he called Sun Xiucai and handed over the tiger boy to him.

Without saying much, Ying Yi then asked the soldiers to bring the prepared dry food and all kinds of necessary supplies, and drove out of the mountain.

...

The location of Xiaowangzhuang is superb. Behind it was a mountain, sheltered by a forest in front of it, and beyond the woods was a wilderness suitable for farming. Now the land near the village has revealed a green landscape, which is the sweet potato planted by the people of Xiaowangzhuang before.

In recent years, sweet potatoes have spread on a small scale in the Ming Dynasty.

Because of the climate, the yields of other crops plummeted. Especially in the Central Plains, natural disasters are frequent, and floods and droughts have been going on for many years. Therefore, many places have begun to grow sweet potatoes. Speaking of history books hundreds of years later, the so-called prosperous Kangqian era was laid in this way.

Standing at the edge of the forest, looking at this secluded sweet potato field, Yingyi sighed in her heart.

"The sweet potatoes are growing. ”

Zhou Li sighed: "It's an extra dish." ”

Needless to say, the uses of sweet potatoes are not mentioned. The tubers are the core, but the stems and leaves can also be eaten as vegetables. Of course, if the oil and water are not heavier, the taste is not very good. However, these days, taste is not the pursuit.

It is precisely because sweet potatoes can be used up and down that the environmental requirements are lower than those of wheat and rice, so they can gradually be accepted.

"This sweet potato field can't be wasted. Yingyi said: "Pass the order, whoever spoils a plant will be whipped." ”

"Whew!" Two thousand households, thirty hundred households each looked at each other, and they all responded.

Ying Yi then pointed to the dry stream next to the sweet potato field and said to everyone: "The stream has long been dried up, and there is a lot of flat land on both sides, so find some open and spacious positions as training grounds." One practice formation, two practice strength, and three practice killing. The array is the main one, and the rest is the auxiliary. In the morning, the army formation was practiced, and in the afternoon, strength and killing methods were practiced. But before that, dig a well to draw water. ”

Since it was a military training, it was as anxious as fire and did not delay in the slightest.

Ying Yi ordered them to go down and dig water in the stream first, while the others used trees as sticks for training.

Water is a top priority. Although there is a well in Xiaowangzhuang, it has been dry for a long time and the water is insufficient, which is far from enough to meet the needs of 3,000 people. So he chose a suitable place in the stream to dig wells, and dug a number of them, stretching up and down for several kilometers, before digging six springs.

He set up camp in Xiaowangzhuang, and the day passed.

Early the next morning, the training officially began.

The army of the Ming Dynasty had its own rules. Flags, drum beats, and so on, to convey different commands. These things, Yingyi doesn't know. But Zhu Bingkun knows. This is also one of the reasons why Yingyi still uses Zhu Bingkun.

Zhu Bingkun is an old military household, he has been an official of 100 households for a long time, and he has also experienced battle formations, and his experience in this area is not comparable to that of a newcomer like Yingyi or Zhou Li.

The relevant training in this area was presided over by Zhu Bingkun. First, let the army use small flags as a unit and train their own small formations. Officers above the rank of chief flag officer gathered together to learn the knowledge that officers had to memorize, such as flag language and drum language.

Yingyi is also among them.

Everyone's learning ability is different, and it goes without saying that Ying Yi actually only took half a day to understand the way he commanded the army. And the vast majority of officers such as Zhou Li scratched their ears and cheeks about this, remembering one and forgetting another, and always remembering everything.

It looks like it will take some time to fully learn.

And so the day passed.
