321 Reorganizing European recruits

Traversers are not omnipotent, let alone gods, they just have a clear understanding of the direction of history, when it comes to the speculation of human nature, the grasp of the current situation, those ancient politicians who are famous in the annals of history, which one is like a demon.

Just like Xiao Lotian and Bismarck, if Xiao Lotian did not have a clear understanding of the historical trend, he would not have achieved such an achievement in two years with his enthusiasm and incorruptible tongue.

But Bismarck is different, this old duke, who was a duel when he was young and even participated in a coup d'état, is definitely a hidden dragon in the mouth of Zeng Guofan, a hidden dragon who led the rise of Prussia.

He had no golden finger to rely on, he could only rely on his own eyes to observe, ears to listen, mouth to tell, and then use his wise brain to analyze, and won three battles of national fortune with his own blood, and was stunned to unify the loose states into a modern Germany that made the world tremble.

Bismarck, who is in his fifties, is the most golden age of the political family, and Xiao Lotian can see through his details at a glance like a child in front of him.

Others can't feel Xiao Letian's eccentricity, but he can, not to mention the unique tactics of Xiao Letian's new army, just by virtue of some of the construction that Xiao Letian inadvertently proposed in the Volkeng Shipyard, his details have been exposed.

"How do you solve the problem of ironclad corrosion and shellfish attachment on the bottom deck of a ship built by pure ironclad ships? We European shipbuilders have not yet solved the problem, and you actually give an answer? May I ask you, who taught you this method of adding capsaicin to paint?"

"There is also the issue of rotating turrets, and now the mainstream of naval warfare is to open the gun doors on the left and right sides, so that the fleet can pierce the formation of the enemy fleet and then fire at the same time on both sides...... But you placed all the guns on the central axis of the battleship, and used the rotating turret to attack left and right......"

"I really don't understand, you came up with this deviant design idea, or is it really as I judged, you have a mysterious team behind you?"

Bismarck subconsciously pinched his beard, "The most terrifying thing is that these seemingly fantastical design ideas of yours have been praised by countless engineers at Volkeng's shipyard subsequently... Looks like you really have too many secrets on your body, and we haven't unearthed......"

Xiao Letian's back is now soaked with sweat, he is really carried away by a series of victories, he seems to have forgotten about it, just with his current identity, an unintentional word may make the intelligence agencies of other countries busy for half a month.

"Hehe, the Prime Minister's imagination is so rich, I didn't expect that there is so much childlike fun in the heart of the iron-blooded Prime Minister...... In fact, what I said at the Volken shipyard was nothing more than some of my conjectures, and as far as I know, there is not a writer in Nantes, France, who is carrying out the same bold fantasies as I am?"

"Oh, dear Shaw, I didn't expect you to be so knowledgeable...... Yes, there are a lot of young people who love his fantasy novels, but I think fantasy is fantasy ......."

"No, no, no, Prime Minister, you are wrong in this thinking...... Xiao Lotian decided to use the fame of Jules Verne, one of the most famous science fiction masters in the history of literature, to get out of his current predicament.

"Without illusions, can humans still be called human beings? What is the difference between that and pigs in captivity? Thinking only about three meals and money all day long, and then spending their lives in ignorance?"

"It is a big mistake that it is precisely because human beings have illusions that they have the source of progress. Many years ago, we didn't know what electricity was, let alone that we could use electric current to invent a telegraph that could travel thousands of miles. If we don't have illusions, we humans can't extract metal from ore to craft sharp weapons and armor......"

"Look at our muskets again, the plate cavalry of the Dark Middle Ages probably couldn't imagine that there would be a smoothbore gun to end their supremacy, so Napoleon's red-clothed warriors who swept through Europe would not have thought that Prussia, the defeated commander of the year, actually invented the breech needle-piercing Mauser rifle......"

"I could cite countless examples of this, and I couldn't finish them for three days and three nights...... Since the fantasies of our predecessors have made today's science and technology possible, our current fantasies may not be the facts of the future? Didn't Mr. Jules Verne write about a huge submarine? I think that in a few decades, his dream will come true......

Xiao Letian said a little dry, he opened the crystal bottle on the table, and poured out two glasses of red wine syrup, "Prime Minister, of course I have my own fantasy about the future naval battle, and I am willing to invest a lot of money in this unrealistic fantasy." Let's be honest...... I have prepared a shipbuilding fund of one million taels, and I hope that Volkeng Shipyard can design and produce the ironclad battleship I want......"

"It's a win-win situation, I get the battleship I want, Prussia can not only get the benefits of shipbuilding, but even accumulate countless valuable experience, and there is a hundred profits and harmless business, I don't think the Prime Minister will refuse......"

The skillful Xiao Letian nodded his head one after another, "Yes, of course I can feel your sincerity, I think even God will not refuse this business, I can exert my influence on Volkeng Shipyard......"

As soon as he was halfway through his words, Bismarck suddenly frowned, as if he realized something, "Oh, you're so cunning, didn't we just talk about giving you two battalions of troops? How did you turn me into shipbuilding? Hahaha, I didn't expect that you could turn the conversation from my hand, you really impress me......"

"Hahaha......" The two foxes, one old and one young, really laughed out loud this time.

The subsequent negotiations were even smoother, 600 Prussian soldiers, which were the strength of two standard battalions, a total of 60 squads, and all the squad leaders and deputy squad leaders were served by Chinese soldiers, so that the strength of 120 Chinese officers could be digested.

There are more than 30 senior officers in the back, who serve as company platoon commanders and other senior officers. The two battalion commanders were Xiao Hexin and Sima Yun, while Luo Huo was responsible for leading a 50-man Prussian cavalry guard as Xiao Letian's personal bodyguard.

"You don't have to worry about Bingyuan, I choose all the good seedlings in the Hamburg barracks, they all have feelings for you, and they also know your deeds of saving people and fighting the French, so there will be no situation where you are in disobedience......"

"In addition, they are a group of recruits who have never been on the battlefield, they are like blank pieces of paper, and they can accept new affairs very casually, if I give you a group of veterans, I am afraid that changing their old habits will be a big trouble in time and time......"

Speaking of this, Bismarck stared at Xiao Letian with blazing eyes, and was silent for a moment before he spoke: "You must know that I have withstood a lot of pressure to let you participate in this war, and so far old Moltke and Prince Karl have not nodded ...... Most likely, you are just observers of this battle, and I don't think the Chief of the General Staff will give you any opportunity to reach the front......"

"However, war is always full of accidents, and it is up to you whether you can seize these unexpected opportunities......

Hearing this, Xiao Lotian understood Prime Minister Bismarck's intentions, this is a sincere desire to reach an alliance with him, and he even puts his own importance above his political enemies, which shows that he has become an important help for his governance.

"Rest assured, I have only been able to get to where I am today by seizing one opportunity after another, and I am sure that after this battle, the whole of Europe will not question your decision again..."

Bismarck was gone, and the 600 Prussian recruits came, and in the open space outside the Garden Villa, on the banks of the Elbe, the 600 New Army officially accepted the reorganization of the Chinese officer corps from East Asia.

Bismarck was very thoughtful, every soldier here was carefully selected from the Hamburg boot camp, and they all knew the brilliant achievements of these Chinese. bravely rescued orphans in the fire, and still did not change his face in the face of the threat of tons of explosives, and some time ago, Xiao Lotian also gave 50,000 Mexican eagles to the church to rebuild the orphanage.

It can be said that the whole of Hamburg owes these Chinese a great favor. Not only that, this group of Chinese can be ruthless enough, and in the face of the French army, which is known as the world's most powerful, they dare to fight a tough battle, and they have crippled an infantry battalion and a cavalry battalion.

The whole clearing was full of roars, running figures everywhere, and for the first time, European soldiers were running wild under the baton of the Chinese.

"The first company, the third shift...... When he heard the slogan, he immediately leaned towards me...... My name is Jiang Lie, and from today onwards, I will be the squad leader of your third class......"

Steven...... Daniel...... Grant...... All those whose names I read immediately gather to me, I am the leader of the second company and the first squad, and you will obey my orders from this day on......"

"Stand up... Look to the right...... Remember how I looked, from today I will let you taste the cruel training of the Eastern Hell, and I will make you regret being reincarnated into this world......"

"Look me in the eye... What are you laughing at?Are you laughing at my strange German accent?Are you laughing at me for mixing English with German?Sue sù me...... Now lie on the ground with a hundred push-ups ......"

In the open space by the river, the 600 Prussian army and more than 150 officers of the New Army have already quarreled, but fortunately, Xiao Lotian has been forcing these officers to learn English and German, and without these basic language skills, it is simply an impossible task to integrate these Europeans.

There was a roar in Xiao Letian's ears, and the six hundred Pu troops were quickly dispersed and then reorganized, and brand new classes began to appear, and then converged into a company platoon, and finally converged into two battalion camps.

This is a process of reorganizing the system, and the system has always been the most important command framework of the army, and if Xiao Letian wants to command this army like an arm, he must use his own officer corps to form a big system, a completely new system.

Looking at the roars of the young officers under his command, Xiao Letian was sincerely proud of their arrival, although this trip to Europe suffered heavy casualties, but it was also rewarding. The most precious thing is that these officers have a strong self-confidence and wash away the Europeophobic thinking of Asians.

"It doesn't matter if you're white, blue-eyed, or big-nosed, you're an ordinary person in front of our New Army officers. This is the self-confidence that comes out of it, this is the powerful confidence that comes out of the corpse of the enemy, and the rise of a nation cannot do without this spirit...... Good brothers, I am proud of you..."

"Report to the Prime Minister, please instruct the first battalion after the reorganization is completed...... The second battalion has been completely rebuilt, please lecture ......" An hour later, Xiao Hexin and Sima Yun walked in front of Xiao Letian and saluted to report to Xiao Letian.

Looking at the horizontal and vertical tofu block-like military formation in front of him, and looking at the strict European faces, Xiao Letian smiled contemptuously, "Look at the queue, it still looks a little elite, but I just don't know if it will be thin when I go to the battlefield......"

Speaking of this, Xiao Letian suddenly yelled, "Put away the arrogance in your European hearts, you are a group of recruits in my eyes, if you want me to look up to you, you have to give me a hard time..."

"Now, right now, all the officers are leading you in civil engineering training, and right on this river beach, digging trenches for me, digging foxholes, digging communication trenches...... If you want to be my soldier, then make me a qualified ground mouse first..."

"Yes...... Sir... The whole army has it, and it is disbanded as a squad, and the civil engineering training is immediately carried out......"

In the shouts of Xiao Lotian and the officers, the hellish life of this group of ordinary soldiers can be regarded as begins.
