145 [Officer Corps Training and Keju]
Ten days after entering the camp, Yuan Sangen had cried at least 20 times.
At first, I cried because I was robbed of new clothes, and then I cried because I couldn't memorize military regulations. If you remember the last few items, you will forget the first ones, and if you remember today's recitation, you will forget yesterday's recitation.
Wang Erlang said that he couldn't recite the military regulations for ten days, and threw them directly out of the barracks to replenish the new recruits in.
If one of the captains (ten-person team) can't recite, he immediately fights back as a small soldier, and the one who recites most fluently in the team becomes the captain.
There are five teams under the command of the flag president, and some people in more than two teams cannot recite, and the flag president is demoted to the captain, and the captain with the best recitation situation is promoted to the flag president.
And so on, and hold the generals accountable.
If all officers can recite fluently, officers at all levels will be credited with one point of merit, and after completing ten points of merit, there will be a specific reward in the future. Those who have achieved 30 points of merit may not be rewarded to offset the punishment of dismissal once.
By the eighth day, Yuan Sangen was in a team of 1,000 people, and he was the only one who couldn't finish it.
At first, the captain beat him, and gradually the captain begged him, and finally the captain even knelt down for him. He didn't have to wash his own clothes, the captain personally helped him wash them, and every time the captain helped him cook, he just begged him to save time and memorize military regulations quickly.
On the afternoon of the eighth day, the general and banner also came, and guided Yuan San to recite military regulations with a pleasant face.
I really don't dare to scold, there is only a day and a half left, and I must coax it well.
On the ninth day, the general and the general also came, shushing the cold and warm, and caring for him. And Yuan San was not flattered at all, he just wanted to cry, he loved the food in the barracks to death, and he really didn't want to be thrown back to live the old days.
Pan Gui took Yuan Sang's hand and said, "Brother Sang, there are actually not many military regulations, and it is not difficult to memorize them. Wang Xianggong has been divided in advance, and there are only four categories in total: one is running and standing; the second is corporal punishment with military sticks; the third is to deduct wages; The fourth is to kill the head and ask for beheading. Let's come one by one, don't panic, the officers of the whole battalion will accompany you on your back, do you say okay? ”
Yuan San said with a bitter face: "But I forgot it after I memorized it." ”
Pan Gui wanted to strangle this guy to death, but he could only rely on his temperament to persuade: "Then let's pull our backs." I ask you, how to punish gambling in the barracks? ”
Yuan San said: "Beat the military stick and confiscate the gambling money." ”
Pan Gui asked again: "How many military sticks?" ”
"Twenty, or thirty?" Yuan San asked in a daze.
Pan Gui explained in detail: "The person who leads the gambling group will be fined 50 sticks, and those who participate in gambling will be fined 20 sticks. Remember? ”
"Well, I remember." Yuan Sangen nodded.
Captain He Zhen sighed: "General Pan, that's how I taught him yesterday, and I can't figure it out today." He remembers it now, and he expects to forget it again tomorrow. ”
Several officers looked at each other, feeling helpless, they were afraid that they would not be able to get this one merit.
How can there be such stupid people?
Yuan Sangen suddenly became ruthless, gritted his teeth and said: "I used to build the mausoleum, and I always made mistakes, and I remembered it every time I received the punishment." Otherwise, I'll have violated all the military rules and most of the time I'll remember the fine. ”
"This method works." Pan Gui nodded and said.
So, these officers cooperated with Yuan Sangen to act.
For example, gambling, everyone accompanies him to pretend to gamble, and then takes a military stick with this guy. It's just that the military sticks are relatively light, and they will not swell and bleed after dozens of sticks.
When the beheading was practiced, Yuan Sangen was dragged to the stage and knelt down, so that he could look at the bloodstains left by the beheading that day. He took the back of the knife and gestured at his neck, then cut off a strand of hair instead of beheading.
These methods were actually imitated by the officers of other battalions, and they all pulled the big soldiers under their command to try them.
Whether it is a soldier or a coolie refugee soldier, they have all been bought by the food these days. was also tied to the neck by Wang Yuan's point system, especially when it accumulates thirty points, which can offset a dismissal punishment, and officers at all levels do not want to lose any opportunity to score points.
They were convinced that Wang Yuan would fulfill his promise, just as they were convinced that Wang Yuan would kill someone!
There is no need to stand up again, and there is no need to do anything else, kill six ** at one time, pay four and a half buckets at one time, and it is enough to eat and drink well every day.
Wang Yuan didn't treat them very well, but he was a hundred times better than other training generals, and he knew it when he compared it.
On the tenth day, regrouping on the school grounds, Wang Yuan immediately smiled with satisfaction.
These 6,000 soldiers had eaten for ten days, and finally they were no longer disgraced, at least they had been washed away from the characteristics of refugees.
Li Sanlang took the Jinyi Guard Law Enforcement Team and questioned the military regulations one by one. But each person asked five questions, which made the officers and non-commissioned officers breathe a sigh of relief, and it seemed that the assessment was not as strict as imagined.
Of the 6,000 men, only two of them did not pass the pass, and they were immediately ordered to get out of the barracks and bring in two more soldiers from outside.
At the same time, the two captains who were jointly and severally liable were immediately withdrawn to serve as small soldiers. The soldiers of these two squads were called to recite the military regulations, and they had to recite them in full, and whoever memorized them best took over the captain's duties. As for the two thousand-strong teams involved in the punishment, although the officers at and above the flag chief were not punished, they could not get the merit this time.
After the rewards and punishments were completed, Wang Yuan called the generals, the general of Qian, and the general and the general banner, a total of 198 people.
Military training for college students has begun!
Wang Yuan also observed the training method on Zhang Yong's side, and asked the soldiers to recognize the flag, number, and various military orders, and then form a formation and drill.
It was nothing more than training discipline, and Wang Yuan simply transferred the method of modern infantry drills.
Wang Yuan pointed at Li Ying and said, "You follow the pacesetter to practice the movements, and then go and hand it over to the captain and the sergeants." Attention! ”
Li Sanlang immediately stood up straight.
The officers at all levels did not know why, so they could only do the same, and the remaining thousands of captains and non-commissioned officers were watching from the sidelines.
"Keep up with the future!"
Wang Yuan explained: "The first row is stationary, and the rest observe the back of the head of one person in front of them, and if it is not aligned, stomp and trot to align itself!" ”
Li Sanlang stood on the spot and stomped his feet, feeling particularly ashamed. But he soon found that this method worked, and nearly 200 untrained officers were quickly aligned in vertical rows.
"Look to the left!"
Wang Yuan said: "The leftmost row is stationary, and the rest look to the left at the ears of others, stomping their feet and trotting to align themselves. ”
Two-thirds of the officers got it right, and a third remained.
"Damn, you don't distinguish between left and right!"
Wang Yuan was so depressed that he couldn't do it, it was normal for the soldiers to be left and right, these were all selected officers. He shouted: "Law enforcement team, go over and correct your mistakes." Now practice thirty times, and whoever makes a mistake again will be punished for running. If you still get it wrong fifty times, don't be an official, just be a soldier for me! ”
For a whole hour, it was to keep up with the forward, left, and right, and finally be able to line up the team neatly.
Among the thousands of onlookers, some of them are learning now, but there are also many people who are smiling and watching the monkey show.
Yuan Sangen is not clever, but he is very diligent.
He was just a small soldier, but he stood far behind the officer corps. At the beginning, there was no distinction between the left and right, and it was always inexplicably wrong, but after an hour, a conditioned reflex was formed, and the moment you listened to the order, you could make the right move.
In the afternoon, he began to practice the "transfer method", turning back and forth, left and right, and the officer corps was also full of mistakes. The first few commands were right, but after a few more turns, they were dizzy, making thousands of soldiers laugh.
Yuan San didn't dare to laugh, although after reciting military regulations, he no longer eliminated the soldiers directly, but all kinds of punishments were waiting, and the most terrifying thing was to deduct the monthly salary.
Although he made countless mistakes in the morning, he only practiced for an hour and no longer made mistakes. In the afternoon, he went around in a hellish way, and his brain was dizzy, and he had to turn the wrong one of three orders on average.
It's so hard!
Wang Yuan's throat was smoking, so he simply sat on the platform to rest, and let Li Ying command the training while being a pacesetter.
On the second and third days, review the content of the first day, and at the same time start training to walk and stand in a military posture.
At this time, it was freezing and even snowing heavily.
Zhang Yong didn't go out of the directly, and went home after the order. Wang Yuan's training was the same, and he only got some cotton cloth to wrap the officers' hands, feet and heads to prevent frostbite from standing for too long.
The officers complained bitterly and resentfully.
But on the platform, there were six heads that had been nitrated and embalmed, looking at them with wide eyes at any time, and no one dared to disobey Wang Yuan's military orders.
The most painful thing is to stand in a military posture in the heavy snow, both legs and feet are frozen, and if you don't pass the posture, you will be punished. Fortunately, after standing for a while, he was ordered to run, and after running two laps, the blood flow all over his body.
That night, Wang Yuan took the Jinyi Guard Law Enforcement Team and personally sent hot water to the officers to soak their feet.
This initiative really touched many people, the well-known champion of the capital, actually sent the foot washing water by himself, so caring for the civil officials of the soldiers, searched the entire Ming Dynasty and couldn't find it.
Wang Yuan put the bucket on the ground, and said with a bad attitude: "Soak Lao Tzu's feet, lest you get up tomorrow and your legs will be wasted!" ”
Die-hard fan Pan Gui was moved to tears, and his idol actually sent footwashing water. He immediately knelt down on one knee, clenched his fists and said: "Wang Xianggong's gracious speech, his humble duty is unforgettable, and he will definitely sacrifice his life to repay his great virtue in the future!" ”
"Stop talking nonsense and soak your feet quickly!" Wang Yuan didn't give a good face.
"Huh!"
Pan Gui smiled and took off his shoes and socks, only to feel that today's foot washing water soaked very comfortably, and he had never enjoyed it so much.
For twenty-five days, Wang Yuan did not directly train his soldiers.
The first ten days recite military regulations, and the second half month instructs officers, but you can't let the soldiers be idle all the time.
If the soldiers are idle for too long, there will inevitably be all kinds of incidents, fights, brawls, gambling and so on often happen, and Wang Yuan has beaten countless military sticks one after another.
How do you vent the extra energy of the soldiers?
Playing football.
Keju reached the peak of the Ming Dynasty and was not lost to the Song Dynasty at all, which can be described as the participation of all men, women and children.
In an unspeakable classic work, the Ximen officials were full of wine and food, so they were ready to go to Keju, and Sister Li Gui, a woman in the Qinglou, also wanted to Keju. The members of the Yuanshe (football club) patted their ass and said: "Sister Gui's outfit (football equipment) is one of the best, dozens of times stronger than the daughter of the frozen official in the two alleys." ”
The Ming Dynasty literati Zhang Dai's "Dream Memories of Tao'an" recorded: "When he went to the temple to bow, Zhang Dalai was famous for 'a piece of mud' and 'a string of beads'. The ball is on the foot, the whole body is spinning, it seems to be sticky and glue, lifting and threading, interspersed with holes, everyone is amazing. ”
Qian Fu, the champion of the third year of Hongzhi, wrote a poem to describe the women's kicking of football: "On the February day of the Juju scene, the fairy wind blew down the two Chanjuan. Sweat stains powder, flowers contain dew, dust flutters, moths, eyebrows, willows with smoke. The green sleeves hang low, and the red skirt sways the golden lotus. A few times she was weak and weak, and she hated to kill the beautiful boy in Chang'an. ”
The Ming Dynasty literati Chen Jiru's "Taiping Qinghua" contains, at that time there was a female football player named Peng Yunxiu, who played invincible opponents all over the world, and the men's football team was proud to play with him on the same team. She "traveled the rivers and seas with her skills as a woman", that is, she took a high level of super ball skills and ran to all provinces across the country to play games.
Moreover, there are all kinds of football in the Ming Dynasty, and there are many rules, there are 24 kinds of football recorded in the "Keju Atlas", and there are 40 kinds of football recorded in the "Keju Spectrum".
There is a handicraft workshop specializing in making footballs, and the size, weight, material, and color can be customized.
Football as a sport began to decline during the Qing Dynasty. Emperor Shunzhi was afraid that the Han people would rebel in tandem with Keju, so he decreed that "it is strictly forbidden immediately", and Qianlong stipulated that the Han people should not have more than 30 people in private gatherings, and the two emperors directly destroyed the football that had been popular in China for hundreds of years.
Wang Yuan found a workshop to customize two soccer balls, which were similar in size and weight to later generations. He also set up a stake and set up a net in the teaching field to carve out a football field for the soldiers to have fun at ordinary times, which can not only consume their remaining energy, but also exercise their ability to cooperate with the group.
Li Sanlang continued to train the officer corps, while Wang Yuan called the other soldiers: "Come on, come on, I'll teach you a new way to play Keju." ”
The Ming Dynasty itself has a myriad of ways to play football, and the new rules are easy to accept. It's just that there are no masters among the soldiers, and the first game directly reached the rugby game, so angry that Wang Yuan asked the law enforcement team to go over and spank!
