Mythical Three Kingdoms-Chapter 1818 - 1685: The Battlefield of the War in the Extreme North

The most failed counterattack of the Northern Aristocratic Family occurred under such circumstances, just like the nonsense Chen Xi mentioned in jest; the aristocratic families never anticipated that Chen Xi would choose to use such a method at this time.

Or perhaps it’s that the hidden fangs of Chen Xi made the aristocratic families think they understood his thoughts, and in their careless complacency, they assumed it was time for a decisive battle between Han and Huns. When Liu Bei’s side sent people to integrate the private soldiers of the aristocratic families, they agreed to the integration without much resistance.

After all, the previous wars had demonstrated many things. Unified command, unified dispatch; on a large battlefield, these are not any less significant than elite troops, unless you want to become a group of scattered soldiers.

Moreover, after the convergence of the forces of Liu, Cao, and Sunx, unified will and dispatch, all raising the banner of the Han Dynasty, made the aristocratic families believe they would also be like them. So when they saw Yu Jin coming with three thousand men, they were completely off guard.

After all, the aristocratic families have their own pride. They admit they are no match for the elite Han Army, but even facing the elite Han Army, when the troop ratio reaches twenty to one, how could they possibly take down their private soldiers?

Even those aristocratic families aware of the existence of the Military Spirit Legion were confident, a twenty-to-one ratio; they weren’t miscellaneous Huns. No, even miscellaneous Huns could hold their own against the Han Army under such a terrifying ratio.

Of course, it cannot be denied that Yu Jin leading the troops this time was very important. Yu Jin joined Liu Bei’s command very early, being one of the early elders. At the initial establishment of Mount Tai, he was under Liu Bei’s command, but Yu Jin has never had any particularly dazzling military achievements, nor has his strength reached the level of Inner Qi Manifestation.

And this was a very important point for the complacency of the aristocratic families. A general without achievements, without combat power, seemingly relying entirely on seniority, came to their side to conduct unified dispatch; the major aristocratic families never thought they would lose their private soldiers.

What, you say our private soldiers need to cooperate? Oh, no problem; however you say it should be, Yu Jin started to dismantle and reassemble.

Oh, you say our private soldiers need to be split and merged to facilitate forming combat power? Fine, no problem; however you say, Yu Jin began to disrupt the structure of the aristocratic private soldiers.

Oh, cooperation is still not working? Is there a fast-track method? There is? Then please use it! Yu Jin stated that soldiers needed to be inserted into the units, then let the aristocratic private soldiers act together with the subordinates he brought; his soldiers could understand his dispatch, thus forming formations with leadership would be much better.

Upon hearing this, the major aristocratic families had no problem and allowed it. More than three thousand mid- and low-level officers were all inserted according to Yu Jin’s allocation, and sure enough, the orders became well-structured. Although not many of the major aristocratic families understood troop command, they could still discern good from bad, and they all applauded.

However, Yu Jin still shook his head, saying that on the battlefield, they were just for show. Others, feeling torn, asked whether Yu Jin could make them stronger. Yu Jin replied that it would require intensive training, which could improve them significantly, and the aristocratic families naturally agreed.

Yu Jin then selected a batch from the major aristocratic families to follow him, which they found no reason to doubt. Naturally, Yu Jin led the private soldiers to train.

Let me state that Yu Jin’s skill in training soldiers is very high. Historically, and in this world, the Qingzhou Soldiers were all trained by Yu Jin. This is why Yu Jin, although rarely making a splash, receives respect even from people like Guan Yu and Zhang Fei when they see him.

Think of the unruly Qingzhou Soldiers; without even enough low-ranking officers, Yu Jin ultimately trained them to be obedient.

If replaced with the private soldiers of the aristocratic families, although slightly more challenging than the Qingzhou Soldiers, handling them is faster when there are enough low-ranking officers.

In Yu Jin’s view, in military training, one should not initially involve brainwashing; just practice, practice ruthlessly, until they have no time to think — of course, this point is no different from Li Youu’s method, except that afterward, it is entirely different.

When the practice reaches the level Li Youu required, Yu Jin switched to commands, various training commands, training until the soldiers reflexively respond upon hearing them. Then the commands were upgraded to drumbeats, followed by various changes, training the soldiers until they act before their brains can react.

After completing these, only then was it time for bloodshed. Honestly, by the second phase, the aristocratic families had no way of recalling their private soldiers because as soon as Yu Jin stood there, all the soldiers would reflexively stop whispering and begin practicing under Yu Jin’s orders.

As for the first phase — are you kidding? Though not as terrifying as Li Youu, Yu Jin isn’t letting soldiers have enough energy to run wild after a day of frantic training. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Regarding the few individuals, heh, no one has heard of a successful rebellion with so few people involved; besides, all the mid- and low-level officers belong to Yu Jin. Without mobilizing everyone to resist together, they can only proceed according to the setup established by Chen Xi!

One could say from the moment the private soldiers of the aristocratic families were taken by Yu Jin, the families had already lost control over their own private soldiers. The grand scheme had progressed in the direction Chen Xi had fixed, and the rolling wheels could be halted by no one.
