    Heavy snow has fallen in Youzhou.

    In order to survive this winter, Liu Ke transferred millions of shi of grain from Yangzhou, so Youzhou's food was very sufficient.

    Winter clothes and quilts are also ready.

    In order to save this expense, Lu Su once wrote to Liu Ke, asking the army to return to Yangzhou for the winter and then go north again in the spring.

    This suggestion was rejected by Liu Ke. Some money can be saved, but some cannot.

    The fighter opportunity was fleeting, and Liu Ke did not dare to take risks.  Moreover, it is also important to train soldiers' cold resistance.

    In fact, Youzhou is pretty good. It doesn¡¯t have the three-foot-long freeze of the northern grasslands. If you can¡¯t survive this little bit of cold, there¡¯s no point conquering the north.

    The army was huge in number, so it did not enter the city but was stationed outside the city. Liu Ke also lived in the military camp and fought the severe cold with the soldiers.

    As soon as we opened the camp, the cold wind filled our eyes.

    Liu Ke led the generals to inspect the military camp. Now the entire military camp is quiet.

    "My lord, there is no need to travel in such a cold weather, right?" Lu Bu said. His clothes were very thin and he was not afraid of the cold.

    Lu Bu¡¯s hometown is in Bingzhou, Jiuyuan County, Wuyuan County, which is modern Inner Mongolia. The severe cold in Youzhou is nothing to him.

    "Being a general is not about finding comfort, but about facing up to difficulties." Liu Ke said sincerely.

    "I've learned a lesson!" Lu Bu said, cupping his fists.

    Since following Liu Ke, Lu Bu has changed a lot.  Of course, this is also because Liu Ke is so powerful that Lu Bu admires him greatly.

    After walking a few miles, Liu Ke discovered a problem. There were almost no soldiers active outside the camp.

    "The military camp is an important place, and defense cannot be relaxed. Some patrols must be arranged," Liu Kedao said.

    "My lord, the general has made arrangements. However, the weather is cold and there are no enemies around. The general will ask the patrolling soldiers to travel once an hour." Zhao Yundao said.

    "It's good to be considerate of your subordinates. You can prepare some hot soup for the soldiers on patrol." Liu Kedao.

    "I will make arrangements now," Zhao Yun said.

    Liu Ke calculated that there are still more than two months until spring. Now the soldiers have nothing to do. How much combat power will they have in two months?

    No matter how elite the Yangzhou army is, they will probably become weak after two months of rest.

    And in the spring, they have to face powerful enemies.

    For training, we must not rely solely on the consciousness of soldiers.

    "Arrange morning exercises." Liu Ke said without any doubt.

    Zhao Yun hesitated to speak, but Guo Jia, who was shivering with cold, said: "My lord, I am afraid that the soldiers will complain."

    With Liu Ke¡¯s prestige, of course such a thing would not happen. Guo Jia was just taking precautions before it happened.

    Guo Jia¡¯s meaning is very simple. The trust of the soldiers cannot be wasted on such a place.

    Of course Liu Ke understood this truth, so he gave in and said, "Then we will change it to winter exercises. No matter what the weather is, we will do exercises for two hours every day."

    "Yes!" everyone said in unison.

    "If a soldier feels unwell, he is allowed to ask for leave." Liu Kedao, "If a soldier asks for leave more than three times, he will be sent back to Yangzhou."

    The army must be run with strict discipline.

    If Liu Ke were just blindly benevolent, he would not be able to bring out a strong army.

    It¡¯s not enough for soldiers to be willing to fight for him, their physical fitness must also keep up.

    After inspecting for a long time, nothing unusual was found, and Liu Ke returned to the camp.

    Winter exercises were indeed not a good idea, so Liu Ke decided to come up with a way to get the best of both worlds.

    It can not only exercise the body, but also make the soldiers feel happy.

    After thinking for a while, Liu Ke decided to hold a snowball throwing contest and recorded the rules.

    The next day, Liu Ke announced the matter and the winning team would receive a reward of 10,000 gold.

    This is not a simple game, but a battle.

    ??Each game is divided into three games, one is a battle on flat ground, and the two sides compete with each other.

    In the second game, Party A uses snowflakes to build fortifications, and Party B is responsible for the attack.

    The third game saw a change of offense and defense.

    And the way to determine the outcome is very simple, capture the handsome flag!

    In the first game, both sides have handsome flags. The handsome flags can be moved in the designated venue, and the game time is not limited.  In the second and third games, the defender holds the commander's flag, which is fixed and can build fortifications around it. The attacker's time is half an hour.

    You can use your body to defend yourself?But there is only one way to attack, and that is to throw snowballs.

    Of course, there are many more rules, so I won¡¯t list them all.

    As soon as the news came out, the soldiers were excited.

    Although the weather is cold, we don¡¯t want to sleep when we¡¯re full, or eat when we¡¯re full.

    The Yangzhou Army is not so decadent.

    So, everyone signed up, which was originally an activity for the whole army.

    However, this is exhausting for the general.

    With 600,000 people, how many venues must be allocated to ensure that the game can be held?

    can not imagine.

    However, Liu Ke¡¯s will was carried out.

    Because the soldiers are so enthusiastic, it is impossible to stop now.

    "My lord has really given us a difficult problem!" Guo Jia said with a headache.

    In a camp of 600,000 people, it would take a day from start to finish. If you go slower, it would take a day.

    What¡¯s more, it¡¯s a competition.

    "This is to exercise everyone's coordination ability. If the competition can't be held well, how can we talk about fighting?" Liu Kedao.

    One of the reasons why Yangzhou is invincible is that the orders and prohibitions are enforced and the military formation is unparalleled.

    Although 600,000 people is a bit exaggerated, as long as you are willing to put in the effort, it can definitely be completed.

    "My lord, what you said makes sense." Zhuge Liang said, and he was eager to try. This is a good exercise for a person's ability.

    "Now let the soldiers start practicing freely, and you have to come up with a charter during this time." Liu Kedao.

    "Please don't worry, my lord!" Pang Tong said, with stars in his eyes.

    Liu Ke couldn't help but sigh, the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. Guo Jia is afraid of trouble, while the younger generations are desperately trying to perform.

    "My subordinates are also willing to help." Lu Xun suddenly interrupted.

    After the last battle, Lu Xun realized his shortcomings, so he has been listening more and talking less recently. Now this opportunity cannot be missed.

    "Okay, I will leave the specific regulations to Kong Ming, Shi Yuan and Boyan. If you need help, just tell me directly and I will arrange the help." Liu Kedao.

    The implication is, don¡¯t be afraid that you are not qualified enough and that you cannot arrange for some veterans. I will support you.

    ??We are all smart people, and we heard it immediately.

    "Why bother my lord? If you need anything, you can come to me." Xu Shu said enthusiastically.

    Several people were from the imperial examination and had the same friendship.

    So, with everyone¡¯s efforts, the competition was held seven days later.

    The 600,000 Yangzhou troops began to move, with more enthusiasm than fighting, and there were shouts of competition everywhere.

    It¡¯s just a cold winter, it¡¯s nothing.

    When Tian Yu saw this scene, he was even more impressed. Dongyang Hou had organized his troops well!

    I am more confident about this battle.

    The competition lasted for more than a month, and the Yangzhou Army stretched its muscles and maintained its best condition.

    As for rewards, everyone has long forgotten about them, and winning or losing is the most important thing.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
