The Hunted Hunter
Chapter 95. Learning Strategy and War Formation
Ma Guang and three others were training the soldiers and the five commanding officers of the 100-man leader.
While Ma Guang and three other people also practiced how to fight on horseback and using spears and using swords.
One month has passed, the pavilion building and also the parlour building have been completed.
Elder Sim Lan directly sent a letter to Su Tian as well as his eldest brother to come to the royal capital in order to attend the inauguration of the pavilion as well as the orphanage.
Ma Guang immediately relayed the name to the pavilion as well as the parlour they had set up.
"The name for this pavilion is the Daffodil Flower Pavilion and also Son Ma's foundation for the name of the parlour!." Ma Guang said firmly.
Elder Sim Lan immediately looked for a handyman to make signboards for the pavilion as well as for the parlour. And also make an identification mark made of gold for the leader of the central pavilion and branch. There are nine identifying marks made of gold with each name - each holder of the identification is written on the side adjacent to the name of the pavilion.
As for ordinary members only made of iron and bronze in accordance with the position to be given.
King Qi Guan Zhong himself inaugurated the pavilion as well as the parlour.
The excitement in both buildings went on smoothly and without the slightest disturbance.
Finally the four Su brothers immediately returned to their respective cities to inaugurate also the branch pavilions and parlors they handled. And it was inaugurated also by the local city lord and attended also by the nobles in both cities where the pavilion branch and the parlour are located.
While Ma Guang has now returned to his activities in practicing how to fight and train the soldiers of martial arts to them.
After two months passed, Ma Guang's troops immediately tested their abilities with the others.
Both fight on horseback, fight with spear, fight with sword and also fight with bare hands. All the soldiers led by Ma Guang won the battle.
The king immediately smiled when he saw the achievement of the soldier led by Ma Guang.
"It turns out this young man is able to make the strength of my soldiers stronger. This has always been My hope, so that the armies of other kingdoms cannot underestimate the fighting strength of My soldiers." Mumbled the king.
The event was finally over and the proud smiles of the troops led by Ma Guang were very visible on their faces.
This was because the soldiers who had followed the battle test with other soldiers from the royal army were the weakest among the troops that Ma Guang had.
While the soldiers who are the opponents - their opponents are the best soldiers among the troops led by the great generals of the Qi kingdom.
"What we have just experienced is not something we should be proud of, for it is not yet a real battle. So we should keep training to continue to improve our fighting abilities." Ma Guang said to his entire army.
After celebrating the victory in the battle, Ma Guang gathered five hundred commanders to discuss with him the leadership of the troops they were to lead.
This was because Ma Guang did not have mature experience in leading an army to fight. So that he wants to listen to every input and experience experienced by the five commanders who are subordinates at this time.
"General Ma! In the battles we have experienced, at first we must have the courage and discipline to face every enemy that is in front of us, if we do not have the courage, he said, we will have defeat before we go to war. And even though we already have the courage, but if we are not disciplined in doing every formation that we have trained so far, we have not, it will also make our troops open a gap to the opponent and will be our weakness." Said the most senior commander among the five.
Ma Guang only nodded his head in response to an explanation from one of the hundred commanders who were his subordinates.
"What kind of power do you mean?." Ask Ma Guang.
"That power is the number of enemy troops, the physical strength of the enemy, enemy war equipment, enemy war strategy, enemy supplies, and enemy war formations. That's what I mean." Say that commander again.
"Typically what kind of strategies and formations are often used when fighting?." Ask Ma Guang again.
"If you talk strategy. It must be seen from the situation of the terrain and our position. Because when we are attacked and also when we attack, of course we will take into account the strength of the opponent we will face, he said, so the strategy will also always be different for us to use so that we can win the battle we will face." Said the commander.
"If you speak formation. We can use it when we conduct open warfare and show each other the strength of their respective armies. And that's what we've been training all this time." Continue the commander.
"Which thing?." Ma Guang asked curiously.
"Like when we use a shield and walk tightly while holding a spear and directing the spear eyes forward together. That is so that the enemy forces cannot destroy our defenses and so that we can break also the attack of the enemy's cavalry." Said the commander.
The five commanders of the hundred-strong army, each began to recount their experiences in the face of battle. And they also gave input to Ma Guang about the situation they were in and what they were doing in the middle of the battle.
After hearing every input and experience from the five commanders, Ma Guang finally began to understand the things he had to do for the soldiers he led.
"Oh, so that's the short picture! All right then! From tomorrow, I will increase your discipline as commander of the troops and also the discipline of our soldiers. Anyone who does not follow the rules I will apply in doing the exercises, then that person will be in the law."
"I will also train you to increase your physical strength and endurance, speed and accuracy of attacks in eliminating enemies and forming powerful formations and also effective in carrying out attacks. And still train your martial arts skills individually according to the way a soldier fights." Said Ma Guang in a voice full of authority.
Hearing what Ma Guang said, the commanders of the hundred troops who were there, immediately saluted and immediately agreed. And after that they immediately disperse themselves to return to their respective places.
That night, Ma Guang kept thinking about every input as well as experience from the five hundred commanders of the army.
Eventually the young man found a way to train the strength as well as physical endurance of his soldiers. Also to train the strength and defense of the formation that they later use when fighting and the formation can also be used to attack and can destroy the opponent's defense.
"I have to train every soldier and commander that I have, in order to become a reliable and proud army for the Qi kingdom." Ma Guang muttered in his heart.
"Miss Xia! Miss Yuan! Uncle Yuan! You can also return to your respective places to rest. I also want to rest now." Ma Guang said to the three people who were still accompanying him.
Eventually the three men resigned themselves and returned to their respective places.
While Ma Guang immediately entered his residence which had been specially prepared for a person who led the troops.
Xia Jiao and Yuan Jiali. The thoughts of the two girls had now felt even further away to have the heart of Ma Guang, it was caused by the situation of Ma Guang who had now obtained another great responsibility from king Qi Guan Zhong.
"When did Ma Guang think of my heart and feelings!? It seemed like he was too busy thinking about his responsibilities as a leader of this army." Xia Jiao muttered in her heart with an expressionless flat face.
"Did the swordsman Ma not like a woman? If he was interested in a woman, how could he not feel tempted by this beauty of Miss Xia and also myself!?." Yuan Jiali muttered in his heart, feeling disbelief in the attitude that Ma Guang had shown all along.
