Outside Hanzhong City, the Hanzhong Camp where the bandits originally lived was not abandoned, and it had become Yang Xiao's military camp at this time.

As the garrison, Yang Xiao's strength increased by six or seven times, and each of his subordinates was one level. He divided his subordinates into three departments: horse team, logistics and infantry. The horse department was led by Liu Sanqi, and belonged to the light cavalry and scouts. The logistics department was led by Wang Fang, specializing in the allocation of various materials. All newly recruited soldiers were the infantry department, led by Li Ying. Hao Yaoqi, the surrendered thief heads, were all organized into the infantry department.

However, his number one confidant Wang Zhengnan did not leave Yang Xiao's side, and was still in front of his personal captain. But all the upstarts in the army knew that this great master Wang Zhengnan was the second-ranked figure in the army.

Although Li Bei gave Yang Xiao a thousand military supplies, Yang Xiao did not recruit a thousand people. Based on the principle of preferring to be short of nothing but excessive, he carefully selected among the people, and his meticulousness was comparable to that of women who chose lovers. Those who were too big or too young were not too young, and only selected people between the ages of sixteen and thirty-five. Anyway, Shaanxi has been hungry for many years, and some people who cannot survive. What kind of ancient sayings about men not being in the army, and those who are good at iron without nailing have long been thrown away by them. God has never allowed people to survive, and they still stick to those ancient sayings that are useful and cannot be eaten.

It took Yang Xiao five days to finally recruit more than 800 soldiers of the right age, and now he is standing in the school field where the bandits were gathered.

It was early winter and the weather was getting colder day by day. It was early morning, and the sun had not yet come out, and the weeds near the school ground were covered with a faint layer of white frost.

But in the school military field, the army had already begun to ignite, with torches everywhere, and all the soldiers were standing in the school military field with wooden spears and neatly arranged square formations.

"You used to be thieves, and your duty to be thieves was to burn, kill, loot. You don't have to dare to do anything, just eat and wear damn."

"But you are now officers and soldiers. The difference between officers and soldiers and bandits is that you eat from the court, not from the common people."

"Before you became thieves, you were also ordinary people. It was because the thief leader Gao Yingxiang led his people to burn your house and rob your food, and you had no choice but to eat, so you were forced to follow the thief."

Yang Xiao stood on the high platform, looking at the black sergeant below, shouting loudly. The entire school military field was silent, and only his clear voice could be heard.

"As a thief, you have the ability to be a thief, and you must have the duty to be a soldier when you serve as a soldier."

"If you want to make a living here, you have to listen to me." Yang Xiao said this and paused. He deliberately emphasized his tone: "It's okay not to listen to me, then you have to go to see the King of Hell."

"I won't tell you so many military rules, and I can't remember it even if I tell you. You just need to remember to listen to me and everything will be fine. If I don't let you move, even if there is a bare-butt girl in front of me, you have to endure it. If I ask you to go, even if there is a royal relative in front of me, I have to fuck me."

Speaking of this, Yang Xiao was stern and shouted loudly: "Did he hear it clearly?"

"I heard it clearly!" Nearly a thousand soldiers roared in unison.

"The voice is too small! I can't hear it, so I'll just shout it out loud!"

Yang Xiaoteng jumped off the platform and walked two steps to the front of a sergeant who had just entered the camp. He shouted loudly, and with his deliberate efforts, his spits splashed on the other party's face.

The other party was a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old, with a well-behaved look on his face. At first glance, he looked like a green kid who had just joined the group and had never even touched a knife. Seeing Yang Xiao, the white-faced scholar, with a fierce look on his face, he stood there blankly, not even daring to move.

"Speak louder!"

Yang Xiao grabbed the young man's ear and pulled his neck and shouted loudly. With his efforts, he successfully shouted his face to a hideous and terrifying redness, just like Guan Gong in the temple.

"I heard it!"

The poor young man saw Yang Xiao's fierce appearance and shouted desperately, and his voice buzzed Yang Xiao's ears.

"Damn it, the sound is quite loud, so I will have to do this in the future."

Yang Xiao took his ears and patted the young man's chest, laughing loudly.

"It's not easy to be a soldier, just like Li Yunlong can be played well." When Yang Xiao looked at the spirit of the soldiers around him, he nodded with great satisfaction on the surface. But in his heart, he was secretly scolding himself for his poor performance ability.

"Wang Zhengnan!"

"I'm here!" With Yang Xiao's loud shout, Wang Zhengnan, who was covered in a slap, stood out from the queue with great strides, as cold as a door god.

"From now on, you will become a military trainer!"

Yang Xiao turned around and walked to the platform. There was a shelf with dozens of short sticks on it, half red and half red, called the water and fire stick, which is also military stick.

He picked up one and held it to Wang Zheng Nanchang in both hands: "If you make mistakes in the future, you will be rewarded with ten sticks."

Seeing Wang Zhengnan taking the military stick silently, Yang Xiao added: "Start by yourself, without exception."

"Yes!" Wang Zhengnan took the whip with both hands and walked to the high platform. There were dozens of members of the law enforcement team standing near the high platform, all of which were old soldiers under Yang Xiao. Each of them went on stage to pick up a military stick on the rack, and then walked to the stage silently, holding his arms, staring at the soldiers in the field with all their murderous aura in their eyes.

After seeing that all the law enforcement officers picked up the military sticks, Yang Xiao found another wooden spear, walked to the head of a team, and stood there silently.

"Take off your shirt!"

Wang Zhengnan stood on the high platform and called an order.

Almost all the sergeants present were stunned. It was so cold and the sun didn't even come out, so taking off his clothes was just a death-freezing person.

The team where Yang Xiao lives looked at Yang Xiao with almost all his eyes. After Yang Xiao put his spear on the ground and started to untidy up, he hurriedly learned to take off his clothes and then took off his clothes.

"one!"

"two!"

“…”

"ten!"

Wang Zhengnan counted quickly. When he reached ten, he reached forward and pointed.

The dozens of law enforcement officers in the audience rushed out immediately. They pressed down the soldiers who had not taken off their shirts, and went up with a military stick, which made them scream in tears.

"No noise in the military camp. If anyone cries, he will be fined twenty sticks. If he commits another crime, he will be cut off his head and displayed on the public."

Just as these people were beaten, Wang Zhengnan stood on the platform and shouted loudly.

The field was immediately quiet, and only the sound of military sticks waving was heard.

"Now you should know what military orders are like a mountain!" Yang Xiao looked at the silent faces of the soldiers and said in his heart.

"Go dress now!"

Wang Zhengnan then ordered.

When he heard Wang Zhengnan's orders, in addition to Yang Xiao, even Li Ying and Wang Fang couldn't help but curse in his heart. Isn't this a playful person? He took off and wore it for a while, but he was the training chief. Whatever he said was what he had to say? Even Yang Xiao had to obediently obey the orders, so what could others do!

In fact, Wang Zhengnan is not a big deal about taking off his clothes. It was completely a bad idea that Yang Xiao came up with. He wanted to use this to give everyone a warning. If it weren't for the cold weather and fear of catching a cold with his upper body, Yang Xiao might have let these poor soldiers practice shirtless for the whole morning.

"Now start training everyone to move forward!" Wang Zhengnan continued to shout while standing on the stage.

It was effortless to startle, and was shocked by Wang Zhengnan's viciousness. Almost everyone took a step forward. Although the feet were left and right, they were big and small, they were always neat.

"Go in step!"

"Go forward!"

"Turn backwards! Keep going!"

The orders were conveyed from Wang Zhengnan and the exercises were carried out. Whenever a soldier refused to obey the order or moved a little slowly, the law enforcement officer under the high platform immediately rushed out and was immediately beaten with a military stick.

This kind of team training was of course the method that Yang Xiao came up with. He had no time to train troops, so he could only come up with this method. He used a ventilated team to stab the spear. When this method was first proposed, it almost attracted everyone's objection. But Yang Xiao was determined to act and could not listen to any objection at all. Based on Yang Xiao's biggest and the army was his reason, everyone had no choice but to give up the argument. He began to follow the team to conduct this kind of training that they seemed to be completely pediatric.

After finally waiting for the sun to come out, the aroma of food also floated from not far away. The soldiers who had practiced all morning were hungry, but Wang Zhengnan, who was suffering from the fact that he did not give an order, no one dared to move.

"Stop the team! Start dinner!"

After hearing Wang Zhengnan's order, everyone was relieved from Yang Xiao, but no one dared to cheer. I wonder if the training officer on the stage would go crazy again, and came up with other ways to torture him again.

After walking out of the school military field, dozens of huge iron barrels were already placed in the open space in front of the camp. A group of people dressed in a chef were waiting next to the iron barrels. They were all specially recruited by Yang Xiao to cook while recruiting sergeants.

The meal was not rich, with steamed buns with black rice noodles, plus a bowl of pickled soup, which didn’t even have oil stars on it.

But for these farmers who had never had enough food before, this was undoubtedly a food that could only be enjoyed during the Chinese New Year. Everyone's eyes were straightened when they looked at the things in the iron bucket.

Under the leadership of the officer, all the soldiers lined up to get their food. Those who were anxious had started to eat before they could sit down. Even if they rolled their eyes, they were reluctant to put down the steamed buns in their hands.

Yang Xiao naturally doesn’t have to eat the same pot of food with these sergeants. It depends on when the soldiers share the joys and sorrows. For the sergeants who have just joined the army, especially in this Ming Dynasty, if you cannot maintain your sense of mystery, you cannot maintain your prestige among the sergeants.
