Chapter 115: Forming a New Guard
Lu Bu only arranged a rough arrangement and arranged to transfer some grain, pickles, racks, wheelbarrows, molds, etc. The specific matter was Xiao Jian's business, and he, as the governor, had to take care of these trivial matters, that's fine.
Unlike the Langya City Defense Forces of Liu Sanfu, the Langya New Army is located in a wasteland west of Langya City, with several miles of desertedness.
A huge military camp covers an area of 100 acres.
One hundred bungalows were planned and designed, each bungalow was divided into ten dormitories, and each dormitories had a standard ten-person room.
Since the land is not cost-effective, the room is designed with a more spacious design. The dormitory is eight meters long from north to south and four and a half meters wide from east to west. The indoor area alone is thirty-two square meters. Ten upper and lower bunks are placed, each soldier has one upper and lower bunks, and there are luggage, items, clothes, etc. above, and people sleeping below.
The only difference from the Teng State Barracks is that they are not designed as a two-story building. Although the two-story building saves land, it is not necessary to do so in the current situation. The land is vast and sparsely populated, so why does it save that land?
The commander-in-chief central army was designed in the middle facing north, with soldiers dormitories on both sides.
Each dormitory building is equipped with a separate large canteen, toilet and water well.
Lu Bu was very satisfied with the picture drawn by Liu Zhubo.
"Not bad, not bad, there have been progress. I didn't expect that Liu Zhubo's drawing skills are good."
Master Liu smiled and said, "This is all good teachings from the lord."
"No, not bad, I'm good at flattering. You can arrange how to build it." Lu Bu shook his hand and went out to see the recruits.
Master Liu can’t be a talented person. Can this little thing still be stumped?
A letter was sent to Gao Shun of Teng's country, asking him to send 100 soldiers who were proficient in the construction of cement, so that there was no need to cultivate the details of the use of cement.
If you hire a craftsman leader from Langya locally, the leader has never used concrete and has to repeat the explanation, and even if it is too troublesome to experiment multiple times.
It would be easy to have these hundred veterans who are proficient in construction. There were 10,000 recruits recruited from Langya and Dongguan. They were all strong men over 18 and under 30 years old. Among them, those who know how to find a thousand people, can find out. The other soldiers are all small workers, and they can be mobilized at any time and do their work after training.
The only problem now is that there are very few bricks in stock in the six official brick yards in Langya, which is not enough, but this is fine. A hundred houses were not built at once, just a little bit.
Liu Zhubo wrote and painted, planned neatly, arranged logging, transporting bricks, stones, and sifting sand.
Many of these tasks can be arranged by Liu Sanfu's 800 soldiers. If you only eat but don't do it, it is to raise the young master's soldiers, and it is definitely not advisable.
This Liu Zhubo arranged a small job for Liu Sanfu's soldiers to cut down elm trees on the hillside in the northwest.
It is very convenient for the government to do business than for individuals. If an individual dares to cut trees on the mountain, he must at least sit in prison. However, the government will do business soon. Hundreds of people pull carts over to cut down the tree, and use the big trunks to make doors, windows, seats and beds, and small branches are kept in the barracks to burn fire and cook.
The training ground was messy and dusty.
The training of recruits has begun. The first item is just jogging, one hundred people in a team, four people in a row, and a distance slowly. Then you go under the shade of the tree to practice basic physical exercises such as lifting stone locks, lifting dumbbells, etc.
Lu Bu looked at the group of new recruits roughly. Their obvious size was a little taller than the recruits recruited near Teng Kingdom.
"Feng Xiong, come here."
"Lord, look at these soldiers, you can see that they are all good. They are all strong guys, and no one over thirty years old wants. Now it is already five thousand, and the Dongguan people have not come yet. In another four or five days, it will be enough for ten thousand." Feng Xiong reported.
"It looks pretty good, are there any good players and specialties?"
"Yes, there are more than a dozen arrows, some can cook, some are inherited from the ancestral bones, and some are from Doctor Dong. In addition, there are more than 200 strong men, all of them are strong. That guy can catch up with Yuan Shao's elliptical."
Those with these specialties must be fully equipped and each has its own arrangements.
"Oh, there is such a good thing, call me here to see it."
Lu Bu took out a tape measure, which was a small thing exchanged for. It was used to build a house. It was really not used to using the ruler from the Han Dynasty. Now it is a double track parallel. Lu Bu used the tape measure to measure the craftsmen and then measure it with the ruler.
All the people who were up 1.75 meters, the people in Langya land were quite tall, with more than 300 people in total, and they were weak, and they were removed inconsistently. They ran and screened them again, leaving only 200 people.
The average height of these 200 people is 1.78 meters. They are not nutritious these days, so it is not easy to grow so tall.
There is a black and strong boy at the front. He is not old and the young man is energetic.
Lu Bu came over and patted the young man on the shoulder. The young man was nervous and scared. This was the supreme commander, Lu Bu and Wen Hou, who were famous all over the world.
"Young man, don't be nervous. What's your name?"
"Little Man Xu Shitou."
"You want to say, recruit Xu Shitou."
"New recruit Xu Shitou."
Xu Shitou learns very quickly.
"Okay, starting today, you two hundred recruits will follow me and be trained by me."
"yes."
Everyone was very happy. Although they didn't know what Lu Bu was going to make an appointment, it was a great honor to be selected and follow the Supreme Commander.
Lu Bu arranged four instructors to train them separately.
Lu Bu planned to train a new personal guard. Although he had many men, he had his own uses. Lu Tong, Feng Xiong, Hua Ji, these are the generals of the Xuzhou Iron Cavalry, and they are all their own deputy generals.
Cheng Lian is a good goalkeeper, but he is usually very busy and leads troops independently.
Xu Sheng and martial arts are not worth mentioning. Lu Bu planned to let him lead troops independently. There were not many people who could really use them, so he planned to train 200 armored infantry to be used as a guard. The most important 200 infantry were all peasant men selected from Langya Mountain District and had nothing to do with the wealthy families in Xuzhou City.
In the evening, Liu Sanfu brought 200 soldiers and brought fifty carts of elm trees to the military camp. Today, the efficiency was good, and the trunks were resting well.
"Master, more than a thousand pieces are cut down today, and tomorrow you only need to transport them back and forth a few more trips. You can cut down enough in a few days. But you can't use new timber immediately. It's better to bring the inventory in the yamen." Liu Sanfu came over and said.
"Three Axes are doing well. The timber inventory has been arranged by Xiao Xiangguo. It's not too late, so go back and rest quickly. Are you also proficient in the three axes that I will teach you?"
