Chapter 232 Troop Training
Mo Yu's eyes swept coldly over several tribal leaders, and they immediately lowered their heads.
"War is no joke. Your every move affects not only yourself, but the entire war situation. If you all remain in this state, I dare not lead such a team to the battlefield."
"Battlefield discipline...command execution...My requirements are simple. Meet the most basic military standards. If you can't, then I'm sorry, but you should just lead your team to do logistics, cut wood, mine and build the territory."
Hearing this, the faces of the leaders of several tribes, who had originally been somewhat indifferent, suddenly changed slightly.
If they were reduced to a gathering team, not only would they lose face, but the tribe's status in the territory would also plummet.
"Starting from today, all combat troops will have at least one hour of additional military training courses every day, and the specific courses will be arranged by Zhong Han. The leaders of each tribe and combat team leaders will have an additional half an hour of military courses every day, and the courses will be arranged by Salt!" Mo Yu said, looking at everyone.
Salter, who was standing aside, suddenly fell face, revealing a mask of pain.
Well, I have added more work tasks to myself. Is this considered shooting myself in the foot?
But he knew that he couldn't refuse this job.
Now in the territory, I am the only commander who has formal experience in large-scale legion combat.
The rest of these people are all outsiders.
No one but him could do the task.
After hearing Mo Yu's arrangement, Bruman, Timo and others were fine, but Graybeard, Tigerson and others all looked troubled.
They can fight, but they are really not good at studying.
However, thinking of the requirements mentioned by Mo Yu, if he could not meet the most basic military qualities, he would be thrown directly into the logistics team.
This is something they cannot tolerate, so even though they get a headache just by thinking about studying, they have no choice but to accept this arrangement.
After glancing at a few people, Mo Yu continued, "There are military books in the library of the territory. You can read them when you have nothing to do. Remember, work hard in peacetime. Every time you improve by one point, the death rate of soldiers on the battlefield in the future will drop by one point."
"Also, Timo, your scout team has recently stepped up their reconnaissance on the grassland to keep track of the beasts. In the territory, you should go out in groups to clear out the enemies. On the one hand, this is for training, and on the other hand, it can also help eliminate potential dangers near the territory in advance."
However, Mo Yu requested that he was not allowed to bring only his own soldiers, but must cooperate with non-ethnic teams and fight in coordination.
"But, mixing them together like this will easily disrupt the tacit understanding and cooperation we have developed, causing unnecessary casualties. And this will not help the battle at all, right?" Tigerson frowned.
Nuyan and the others had the same expression, and were obviously not used to this way of fighting.
"I'm not asking you to merge together, but to cooperate and become familiar with each other's abilities and fighting methods in battle."
"For the simplest example, let me ask you, what is the range of the Minotaur's axe sweep? How long would it take to defeat a group of cavemen with their fighting power? Do you know?"
Tigerson shook his head repeatedly. If he asked the tiger-headed man about the minotaur, he would definitely not know.
Mo Yu looked at Nuyan again, and saw the minotaur grinning foolishly.
"Raging Rock, let me ask you, what is the effect of Mrs. Ster's battle cry?"
The minotaur leader stopped smiling and shook his head blankly.
"How strong is the defense of a heavy-armored dwarf, and what level of attack can it withstand?"
……
Seeing that no one spoke, Mo Yu spoke earnestly.
"Remember, since you are in the same territory, you are a whole and close comrades. You must have enough understanding and trust between each other."
"But if you don't even know your comrades' abilities, how can you trust them with your back? How can you fight with all your strength on the battlefield?"
After hearing Mo Yu's words, several people seemed to be thinking about something.
Salt nodded, this made sense.
The several tribes that have joined the territory now mostly lived together with the same tribe in the past, and the same was true in battles, so they have almost no experience in cooperating with other races.
This problem is not a big deal in normal small-scale wars. Each team fights on their own and can easily crush the opponent with their strength.
But once on the battlefield, with large-scale legionary combat, these problems will be infinitely magnified and eventually turn into an overall defeat.
Therefore, in the next few days, the most important task of the territory is to train troops.
During this period, Mo Yu will not interfere at all in the task of clearing out the beasts.
Although his defense towers are powerful, if they are used too much, it will easily make the army dependent on them, which will greatly hinder the improvement of the army's combat effectiveness and is actually a bad thing.
In fact, the territory's existing military force is not weak and can afford appropriate losses.
There is no war without casualties. Appropriate sacrifices and setbacks can make them realize the cruelty of war, face their own problems, and inspire them to participate in military training and improve their strength.
Mo Yu simply let go and allowed each unit to hone their skills in battle.
Clap your hands and let’s put this topic aside for the time being.
Next, everyone discussed the territory’s future development plan.
Salt spoke and expressed the hope that the territory could pay more attention to the development of the air force.
He was originally the commander of the Air Force, but now he has no flying troops under his command except for a few dragon eagles.
As the first hero of the territory, this is indeed a huge waste of resources.
This is mainly because most of the rideable flying mounts are of higher levels, such as Thunderbird, Griffin, Pegasus, Dragonhawk, etc. Under normal circumstances, they are all above level five, so it is normal that they are difficult to access in the early stages.
For the development of the air force, flying mounts are the primary issue. As for the riders, they can be trained later.
Mo Yu said that the development of the Air Force will be given special consideration in the future.
Timo also proposed to expand the scout team. With the few people under his command, the reconnaissance mission is too heavy.
Seeing this, everyone started to speak up, and the atmosphere suddenly became heated.
Some people advocate the development of grasslands, some advocate the development of forests, and some suggest safe development...
Everyone's perspective is different.
In the end, Mo Yu set the short-term development tone by citing the impending cold wave and requiring that priority be given to stockpiling supplies to cope with the cold wave and passing herds of animals.
Teemo's reconnaissance mission is mainly to explore passing herds and tribes.
Of course, we must also strengthen reconnaissance of the beast tribes in the forest.
This tribe is the only super-large tribe within 30 kilometers of the territory and poses a threat.
In the next two days, everything in the territory was gradually sorted out.
Military training...field expeditions...resource collection...everything became orderly.
The many new residents who had joined the territory also gradually settled down.
Bruman, Tigerson and others led troops to attack many times, successfully wiped out several small-scale herds of beasts and brought back a large amount of prey.
The only time when they suffered heavy losses was when they encountered a large group of powerful demon apes.
The leader of the blood-marked tiger-masked men, Tigerson, led more than 50 blood-marked tiger-masked men and a team of minotaurs, but was ambushed on the grassland by this group of cunning and powerful demon apes.
Fortunately, they were strong enough and Tigerson personally led the team to cover the rear, so there were no major casualties.
But despite this, more than 10 blood-marked tiger-masked men and more than 50 minotaurs were lost.
This is the largest number of casualties in recent times.
After this, the proud Tigerson stood silently for a long time at the soldiers' funeral.
Soon, he joined forces with Bruman to wipe out this group of powerful demon apes.
The territory gained a good thing from these powerful demon apes, that is, their tough and light fur.
These furs are excellent materials for making leather armor.
There is also a chance to add the unique talent of the powerful ape, which is powerful and increases strength slightly.
There are nearly a thousand pieces of Mighty Demon Ape's skin in total, which can be used to make a lot of leather armor.
After this battle, Tigerson became much more serious in his daily studies.
The training of soldiers also became extremely strict.
After two days, Mo Yu finally had time to go to the forest and take a look at the mysterious plant.
According to previous reconnaissance, the fruits above will probably ripen in the next few days.
If we delay for two more days, the armored war bear under the tree might have eaten its fill and left.
