Chapter 13 Weight-bearing training
Early in the morning, Lu Yuan woke up and stood up.

The people lying next to him also sat up before the sun rose, even though they had no strength left.

Of course, this does not include a few people who can never get up again.

The sound of orderly footsteps was heard.

Today, it is much earlier than yesterday.

Moreover, the sound of footsteps on the ground was much heavier than usual.

Those who were sitting quickly got up.

Zhao Hu ran over with the three hundred personal soldiers behind him.

Today, Zhao Hu was wearing a set of shiny black chain mail that covered almost his entire body, and it made a rustling sound when he ran.

Walking barefoot on the still damp ground in the early morning, my toes left concave footprints in the mud.

The dozen or so sergeants behind him were also wearing bright chain mail.

Although it was not as majestic as Zhao Hu's chain mail, and there were some traces of battle damage on it, it looked like it weighed more than 30 kilograms.

As for the rest of the people, many were wearing baggy clothes.

When running, a rustling sound came from the clothes, as if the clothes were full of sand.

When the training team arrived, Lu Yuan and all the people participating in the training took off their clothes and followed them barefoot.

When they reached a place, Zhao Hu pointed at the hundreds of sandbags and clothes piled on the ground and said without question:

"Put it on!".

“Wow~!”.

When Zhao Hu said this, there was an uproar among the crowd who had come up to train.

They looked with some fear at the sandbag clothes that seemed to weigh more than ten kilograms.

Many of them had managed to get through yesterday's training, and their feet were covered with blisters.

Even if you train naked like this, you may not be sure.

If I put on this sand shirt weighing more than ten kilograms, I will almost certainly die!
The three hundred personal soldiers beside Zhao Hu were looking at these new refugees with a joking look on their faces.

Although these sand clothes weigh only more than ten pounds, they are nothing compared to the sandbags weighing more than twenty pounds, or even the chain mail weighing more than thirty pounds that they are wearing.

But they were soldiers from Huizhou, who had undergone rigorous training under the Huizhou military commander. Even under the military commander's command, they were qualified soldiers.

And who are these people?
They were all starving and skinny.

There are still blisters all over my feet.

With these ten pounds, it would only take a few steps to crush their blisters.

By then, even if he didn't die of exhaustion, he might die from festering wounds or getting sick.

After today’s training, I’m afraid less than half will survive.

But so what?
The brigade commander wouldn't care about any of this.

In the past few days, after the attack on the county town was successful, many refugees went up the mountain one after another.

They have no shortage of people at all now.

There are as many refugees without fighting ability as we want.

They also don't have enough food to feed so many people.

If these people cannot help the brigade commander in attacking Qingping County, what use are they?

Zhao Zheng in the crowd was staring at Lu Yuan with a happy look on his face.

See what choice the other party will make.

He didn't believe that the other party could withstand such training.

Even for themselves, when they were full, they suffered a lot during such training.

And if the other party is cowardly, that would be even better, the brigade commander would take his life right now.

He stared at Lu Yuan with a cruel look on his face.

However, he discovered that the boy was the first to move.

The boy walked up to the sand shirts without changing his expression, picked up one and put it on.

Zhao Zheng was stunned for a moment, but soon sneered.

This guy is bound to die.

Before dying, he actually wanted to show off.

At this time, even Zhao Hu couldn't help but look at Lu Yuan with admiration in his eyes. Although this guy was thinner than the others, he didn't even hesitate and was the first to come out. His courage was commendable.

As a superior, he naturally looks up to such pawns under his command.

Such subordinates obey orders and charge into battle, helping him block many knives.

But the prerequisite is that this person can survive.

He also didn't think highly of such a skinny guy.

Turn around and look at those who are still hesitating.

He kicked out first, hitting the leg of the person closest to him with hesitation on his face.

There was a "click".

The leg, which was as thin as a pole, was kicked in half and rolled on the ground.

Zhao Hu didn't even look at the man.

Shouting loudly:
"Put it on, or you will die!".

The huge sound made the ears of those who were still hesitating ring.

Then they rushed towards Shayi.

The man on the ground had his leg broken by that kick just now, and no one dared to save him. In this place without food, he had no chance of survival.

They had already seen how ruthless the brigade commander was, and they would do what they said.

If they hesitated for a moment, they would be killed immediately.

In this case, you might as well take a chance and try to have a chance of survival.

Everyone was wearing sand shirts.

After Lu Yuan put on the sand shirt, he was already weak under the pressure of more than ten kilograms of weight, and he was not used to it and almost fell backwards.

He used both hands to steady the shaking mud and sand inside before he could stand firmly.

While others were putting on their sand shirts, I ran a few steps.

When he saw these people wearing chain mail and sand shirts, he had his guess.

Sure enough, Zhao Hu brought them to the place full of sand clothes.

Since the other party has spoken, there is no possibility of retracting the order. Even if you hesitate, it will not have any effect and will only provoke the other party to beat you.

In this case, it would be better for a bachelor to go up alone and adapt early, so as to avoid running in a panic and failing to keep up with the team, and being punished by Zhao Hu.

Without giving them much time to slack off, the training team ran forward.

Those of them who were as thin as bamboo poles could only keep up closely.

More than ten kilograms of gravity pressed down on them.

Many of them here simply cannot control their strength.

Many of them staggered while running, and one person even fell down before he had taken just a few steps.

"Whoa whoa whoa whoa."

Zhao Hu, who was following behind, came over.

Looking coldly at the man lying on the ground.

But he didn't kick him immediately.

I was counting silently in my heart.

Three breaths.

If this person cannot get up within three breaths, he will be a waste and has no value in living.

If he can get up, let him go.

His purpose in training these people was not to kill people.

The attack on Qingping County was imminent, and he needed to hurry up and train people who could help him.

Moreover, even if he did not kill them, it was still unknown how many of these people would be able to get up tomorrow after weight training.

He didn't want to delay his battle plan.

The man lying on the ground was stared at by Zhao Hu, who was wearing chain mail, and his hair stood on end.

They all got up from the ground and chased after the team.

He was afraid that Zhao Hu would catch up and kill him.
