Transmigration begins with archery training

The crowd shouted in unison, "Lord Chen, we feel at ease following you!"

"Correct!"

The people said, "Following Lord Chen, at least someone will remember our names, and even if we die in the future, it won't be a wasted death."

With the enemy at the gates, one cannot rigidly adhere to the rules.

Chen Sanshi ordered, "Wang Li, you are in charge of teaching them the techniques. As long as they have good talent, there will be enough medicinal herbs for them to reach the Blood Refining Realm."

"Yes!"

Wang Li accepted the order.

In fact, from the very beginning of the siege...

In their spare time, people began to teach the common people stance training. Some of them were even considered martial artists. It didn't take long to train a group of soldiers.

In peacetime, the Thousand Household Office would still hoard knowledge, requiring at least two or three years of hard labor before teaching the breathing techniques without paying money.

But once war breaks out, things are completely different.

Chen Sanshi continued, "Xu Wencai and Xu Bin, you must train the cavalry formations well, just in case!"

These days...

The original cavalry of the Thousand Households also had to defend the city walls, suffering heavy casualties. The unclaimed warhorses they left behind were all brought over by Chen Sanshi for training. They were trained in the same "small cart formation" as during the grassland expedition, with ten men forming a team.

The small car suspension system is the most basic, entry-level car suspension system.

A true chariot formation can control thousands of cavalry at the same time. Even if scaled down proportionally, it would still require at least two hundred men to form a proper formation. Currently, we can barely muster that number of men and horses.

However, any formation requires time to practice.

The chariot formation, in particular, is quite complex, involving several troop types such as spearmen, swordsmen, and archers. It requires not only flexible deployment but also excellent teamwork among all the troops.

Given the urgency of the situation, the simpler the formation drills, the better, so they can be put to use as soon as possible.

Once the arrangements were made, Xu Wencai immediately followed them.

Before long, a panel appeared in front of Chen Sanshi on the wall.

With frequent real combat experience recently, my proficiency in commanding troops has improved rapidly.

He was so busy breaking through his cultivation level and defending the city that he almost forgot that his military command skills were also about to break through.

[Skill: Commanding Troops (Proficient)]

【Progress: 0/1000】

[Effect: Core leadership, effective troop training]

Effective Training Methods: All Military Formations Can Be Quickly Mastered

Quick fix!

Training an elite team requires not only money, food, and medicine, but also a long period of time and a great deal of effort.

Especially large or complex formations cannot be used in actual combat unless practiced day and night and every aspect is properly controlled.

But if it can be mastered quickly, then the nature of it changes!

"No need to practice small formations anymore."

Chen Sanshi immediately went to the area below the city wall, which was being used as a temporary training ground: "Switch to practicing the 'Great Chariot Suspended Formation.' If there aren't enough people, scale it down proportionally!"

"Big formation?"

Xu Wencai asked, slightly puzzled, "Are you sure, sir?"

"I'll do it myself!"

Chen Sanshi mounted the white swan horse and personally trained it.

Under his command.

In just six days, the chariot formation was trained to operate smoothly, and in another five days or so, it will be perfectly capable of going to the battlefield.

Among the hundreds of laborers, two hundred soldiers and ten warriors were selected. The rest, who had not been able to master the techniques, were still considered to be physically fit and strong.

This way.

During the siege by the barbarians, the defensive forces within Poyang City actually became sufficient, and holding out against six thousand barbarians was not a problem at all.

"Greetings, Lord Chen!"

Upon arriving at the open space temporarily used as a training ground, hundreds of people shouted in unison.

"Ah."

Chen Sanshi nodded, looking at the neat and uniform queue, and personally experienced what it meant to "build a strong city with one heart and one mind".

It just so happened.

The art of commanding troops is once again on full display.

[Determined to Fight to the Death: After more than a month of bloody battles, he always led from the front, fighting the first to shed blood upon encountering the enemy, to the point that his men were inspired and now all are willing to follow him to the death.]

Follow to the death?!

Chen Sanshi was involuntarily taken aback.

He looked again at the determined gazes cast upon him by hundreds of people, and for a moment, he didn't know how to describe the feeling.

This group of people...

Would you be willing to die with me?

Furthermore, the attribute "Determination to Fight to the Death" is clearly not solely obtained through the panel's proficiency level, but rather through his own exemplary conduct and the long-term effects resulting from sharing life and death experiences.

It only applies to this group of people.

In other words.

From this moment onward.

Chen Sanshi had his first batch of loyal subordinates.

But he felt less excitement and more of a sense of responsibility.

These are all human lives at stake.

If people are willing to die with him, then every command he makes as a general must be given to the best of his ability so as not to fail those entrusted with his life and to have a clear conscience.

"Xu Wencai, you continue training them."

After Chen Sanshi laid the foundation for them, he continued to hand it over to Xu Wencai for command, which did not delay the progress of the formation at all, showing that the old scholar was indeed quite capable.

He approached Sun Li: "Senior Sister Sun, may I borrow your Crimson Lotus Saber Technique to take a look?"

now.

He had perfected his bone cultivation, but he lacked the internal organ cultivation techniques.

Sun Buqi was far from mastering the art of internal organ refinement. He didn't even know the details of his Flying Serpent Wind-Sweeping Spear Technique, let alone the Undying Golden Serpent Spear.

Now trapped in the city, they don't know when they will be able to leave and obtain new cultivation techniques.

Why not start by practicing swordsmanship?

It's better than being idle.

"Sword techniques? I don't have the manual with me, but I can teach you, however..."

Sun Li did not refuse. Looking at the bow on Chen Sanshi's back, the gun in his hand, and the sword at his waist, she teased, "Are you sure you can handle all that?"

"Anyway, there's nothing to practice on?"

Chen Sanshi expressed his helplessness.

Sun Li recalled, "For a while, my father was just like you, practicing all sorts of random martial arts techniques every day."

Chen Sanshi asked, "Did Commander Sun say what the benefits of practicing different techniques are?"

"No."

Sun Buqi chimed in, "Back then, my older sister and I were very young. We were always following him around, so we saw him a lot and it left a deep impression on us."

"If i remember correctly……"

Sun Li pondered, "That period happened just before my father was imprisoned in the imperial prison."

Before being imprisoned in the imperial prison.

That is, before breaking through to the Martial Saint level!

Chen Sanshi became interested: "Didn't you ever ask him later what the point of practicing so many martial arts techniques was?"

"Asked."

Sun Buqi spread his hands: "I'm just bored."

"..."

Chen Sanshi knew that asking any more questions would be a waste of time, but he could feel more and more that the path to becoming a Martial Saint was related to the cultivation of multiple techniques, so he was full of enthusiasm and immediately asked Sun Li for guidance, memorized all the stances and moves, and then began to practice.

Another exhilarating speedrun.

Five days later.

He also pursued swordsmanship all the way to the point of perfecting bone training.

The body still has a slightly stronger constitution and blood.

Besides that, if I had to say something, it would be that by learning more about different weapons, I would be more adept at dealing with enemies who use knives.

On that very day, Wang Zhi returned.
