What surprised him even more was the good food of the soldiers!

The food tube is full, and the food is good!

Eat hot food at the camp!

There are a lot of breakfast styles, including steamed buns, steamed buns, noodles, dried vegetable and meat porridge, fried dough sticks and soy milk, etc., and the most touching thing is that you must have an egg!

The main meal is rice, vegetables, fish, pork, and chicken from the seaside!

In the event of a military parade and festivals, there are additional meals, often mutton and seafood, once Chen Xinji followed Yan Dashao's military parade, and actually ate beef oysters!

It must be understood that cattle are a farmer's treasure, farmers love cattle as their lives, and people want to eat cattle only without official consent (but very rarely) or sick and dead cattle.

I didn't have fruit to eat for the first two years, but then I had fruit for dinner and milk for breakfast!

When the troops are dispatched, they have rice (when available) or biscuits (when they are unconditional), and the dishes are mainly dried vegetables, pickled fish, dried fish and pork, dried fruits after meals, tea after three years, and sweets (after a year).

In the Ming Dynasty, the people on the mainland were generally poor, and the ordinary people usually ate multigrain rice and home-grown vegetables (only had by farmers), and they could only eat brown rice and meat during various festivals, as for fresh meat, eggs and polished rice (rice without chaff) were rarely eaten, and eggs were reluctant to eat, so they were taken to the market to change copper plates.

Therefore, eating an egg among the people is definitely to improve their lives. (A certain Wanwan said that the mainland can't afford to eat tea eggs, he is not wrong, referring to the mainland in the Ming Dynasty)

In Yan Changwu's barracks, after the recruits completed their training, they were much stronger than before they joined the army, and their physical strength had also improved greatly.

All of them are scary-strong!

Originally, the southern soldiers were not as strong as the northern soldiers, but the northern port soldiers were not much better than the northern soldiers, and their physical strength was high, and they could catch up with the horses when they ran!

The standard of food for soldiers is significantly higher than that of the general public, basically equivalent to the level of well-off families in the mainland, with enough rice, meat to eat every day, and non-staple food is also quite abundant.

In order to provide a stable diet for the army, a chicken farm, a pig farm, a cattle farm, and a sheep farm were established, as well as vegetable farms (these farms soon became more and more expanded with the expansion of the army), and they were self-employed, and the daily meat of the officers was also given from **.

However, the adults have to give their own money and pay according to the price, and Yan Changwu is no exception!

But the army is free, Chen Xinji said stupidly: "We are not as valuable as the big head soldiers!" ”

Of course, the army is Yan Changwu's foothold, baby pimple, and he cares about it meticulously.

In addition, the soldiers are issued training uniforms, regular uniforms, ceremonial uniforms... Outrageous means that soldiers must be beautiful, well-dressed, clean, shaved their faces, have their hair done, and be inspected by officers and gendarmes before they are allowed out of the barracks.

For this, the army gave out soap again!

Oh, and the papyrus!

Regarding Yan Da's behavior of spending less money like running water, Chen Xinji and Zhang Bo have a lot of complaints, but they can't be reversed.

Of course, Yan Changwu would never let his army become a young master soldier, and he also practiced them every day to become dead dogs.

A five-kilometer run!

Exposure to the scorching sun!

Kilometer swimming!

Carrying a big tree or something!

A hundred push-ups!

Endless standing in line!

……

Every morning, as soon as the trumpet sounds, the soldiers rush to jump up... If you're late, run away!

Yan Dashao's army subjective corporal punishment is not heavy, and the officers at most drink and scold or punch and kick, and if something goes wrong in peacetime and training, they will either be punished and run away, or they will be shut down and given coarse tea and light rice.

If you make a mistake in battle, you will be beaten with a stick, that's all.

In serious cases, there are military courts.

Housekeeping is to be done in a few minutes, and then drink water... Oddly enough, the army asked for boiled water, and then began a day of training.

In the early morning, the soldiers shouting the trumpet for long-distance running are a major feature of Beigang.

Back in the barracks, the officers practiced vigorously from morning to night.

The training syllabus came from Yan Changwu, he said that he came from the West, and others would let it go... Later, some Westerners saw such a training syllabus and said that they had never seen it in the West!

Of course, the specific training process still depends on everyone to design and supplement, but the essence is still Yan Changwu's.

Sometimes I am so tired that I collapse, and I have to gather a team, eat in the dining hall together, and sing before eating!

Gotcha, the military song is coming!

"Say a Word from the Heart", "Return from Shooting", "The Moon of the Fifteenth", "I Am a Soldier" and so on (many have been changed and deleted), and the loud and bright song of the Japanese army is a major feature of Yan Dashao's soldiers.

When the muskets and artillery arrived, they were slamming and firing all day long.

Gunpowder costs money, projectiles cost money, muskets and artillery depreciate.

Chen Xinji Muran, who is in charge of the accounts, signs any bill and doesn't even look at it!

He had an argument with Yan Changwu, thinking that he was too good to the soldiers, but Yan Changwu said: "My soldiers are different!" ”

……

Having said that, Yan Dashao's soldiers eat comfortably, live comfortably, and are satisfied, although they are happy, they are also attentive.

The report that Yan Changwu received was that the army had really contributed to training.

Physical training in January, target shooting in February, joint training in March (simulated joint training on the battlefield), and it was really the beginning of March.

The order is forbidden, and the eyes are murderous. . . To train them, put a gun on top of their heads!

……

The troops are paid!

It's a big day, all the soldiers are wearing clean dresses, and Yan Changwu personally pays the money!

shouted his name, and stepped forward one by one to take the money in Yan Dashao's hand.

The soldiers understand that the money is given by Yan Dashao, not someone else's, don't be loyal to the wrong person!

Real money, according to the salary slip, no deduction.

Of course, Yan Dashao is busy with affairs, and he doesn't arrive every month, but there must be Chen Xinji, who is in charge of finance, to send someone to supervise, and there are "Chinese characteristics", Yan Dashao sent a house slave to supervise it to ensure that the money must be sent to the hands of the soldiers.

The country is the world, everyone is accustomed to it.

Don't look at the majesty of the house slave outside, but if you dare to deceive the master, Yan Dashao said: "...... Put him in a sack and throw him into the sea! ”

Well, he's the son of a great pirate, and he does what he says!

Under such supervision, the soldiers' income is leveraged, and as long as they participate in the war, they will be rewarded. Those who train to contribute can also be counted as meritorious. Every month, the top three are selected from the training masters and teams, and each is rewarded with a certain amount of silver.

Compared with the Ming army on the mainland, it is much better, to say that the Ming army has a salary and silver, but the court is in arrears, the governor is deducted, and the household silver is insufficient, and later the army soldiers almost became beggar soldiers, which is miserable.
