The trail of trail running is a long time drifting haode, and often running, everyone is very familiar with it. There is no need for a dedicated mén to guide the way. Zhu Mingxia was wearing sports shoes, and he only brought a pistol, and he didn't even have a command knife, which was far more relaxed than a fully armed soldier wearing straw sandals. So after he ran to the finish line, he had more physical strength than a soldier, and he almost recovered after a little rest. He held a stopwatch and stuck each company zuihou a time to reach the soldiers.

The battalion completed a five-kilometer off-road in 26 minutes as stipulated in the syllabus. Because this route is a regular five-kilometre off-road route, there is a rest stop at the end of the race, with a drinking station and toilets. A large plot of land was also leveled to be used as a meeting place for the troops during the presentation.

Zuihou reached the 3rd Company of the Battle Column, and was fined one kilometer after completing five kilometers within the allotted time. After all the companies were rebuilt, all the soldiers were half exhausted, but they still stood straight in the queue waiting for instructions. One by one, they did not seem to have the slightest procrastination due to fatigue, which made Zhu Mingxia very satisfied: in the past, these eggs did not have this kind of fighting spirit. The more tempered the soldier is, the more he has fighting spirit, and if he does not fight, he has to train repeatedly, and he always maintains the most nervous state.

He adjusted his breathing, cleared his throat, and began to speak.

"Comrades, your growth amazes me and makes me proud! In the past, you were just ordinary people who were enslaved and oppressed, and some were even slaves with no personal freedom. You are oppressed by layers of officials, plundered by fierce thieves, and you cannot protect yourself or your families. Even in the most prosperous years, he can only live half-starved and half-fed. Every day is a trembling life in fear、Today, you have become a glorious soldier of the Senate, and you are fighting to save your compatriots! You fight to save the world! Under the authority of the Senate, under the leadership of the Executive Council, you will remove all the oppressed people from the world from the rotten court. and rescue from the hands of murderous bandits! You will let all your brothers and sisters in the world eat white rice, and they can all be human beings. For this great goal, I have trained you strictly, and I will train you even more strictly, so that you can defeat your opponents in the difficult battles in the future. If you fail, you will lose everything, the old people will be slaughtered, the children will be enslaved, and the nvs will become playthings, so you must not be defeated.

Some people say that being a soldier is just for the sake of eating, and you can't work so hard, no! I want to tell you that being a soldier is not just a job, but also an honor, a duty, and your duty is to defend the Senate and save the suffering people. It is you who are engaged in such an honorable profession. Your family is extremely proud, and your ancestors are thriving! Life is important, but human dignity is even more important, can you bear those officials who eat people and don't spit out bones and come back? Can you accept pirates and thieves forcing your family before your eyes? Can you? ”

"You, the third in a row in a row, tell me, "Can you?". Zhu Mingxia pointed to a soldier and said, "Can't!" …… The soldier shouted with all his might.

"Then tell me, can you accept it?"

"Can't! No! I don't know who shouted it first, and soon the soldiers in the whole battalion shouted that they couldn't, and hundreds of people made an earth-shattering sound, and Zhu Mingxia raised his hand to signal quiet.

"I know you're not going to accept it. But there are those who think: those officials, those bandits, those who used to ride on the heads of the people and make a fortune, and with your blood and sweat to feed the rats of their own house.

There is not a day that they do not want to come back and plunder us, and when they fail to rob us, they come secretly. Some time ago, the case of Lai Da was reported to the whole army, and the tragedy of the team going to the countryside was caused by these people in collusion with bandits. They never wanted to ride on our heads again, and they never gave up. Now, again, they are spreading all sorts of rumors. Attempts to divide us. Comrades, recall Bopu, who defended the Holy Ship at the most critical time? Under the city of Chengmai, who transported the wounded back to Lingao. The army and navy are the right-hand men of the Senate, and they are a unity that shares honor and disgrace. Any rumors of contradictions within the army are maliciously spread by the enemy, they are afraid of us, so we must divide us, we must not be blinded by rumors, we should be closely united, and in the near future, respond to them with artillery and bullets......"

This is the purpose of Zhu Mingxia dragging the whole battalion out of the off-road, a person is particularly easy to be swayed by other people's thoughts when he is extremely tired, the soldier is not tired, he will create fatigue, the army and navy contradictions can be pulled between the elders, but they must not spread to the army.

Battalion commander Zhu Quanxing, who had just led the 6th Battalion back to construction a few weeks ago, reminded him that the contradictions between the elders might have spread to the army. In particular, the new sports faction in the navy and army are consciously or unconsciously contributing to this.

Zhu Quanxing was not a former soldier, but came to the army to become an officer entirely with fanatical energy. belongs to a member of the New Sports School, but he is worried about the battle between the army and the navy, so he specially reminded Zhu Mingxia... The so-called one stroke can't write two Zhu.

These disturbances must be nipped in the bud, and the army of the Senate must not become a joke of the Japanese army and navy. Zhu Mingxia felt that although he couldn't control other troops, his troops must lead the direction accurately.

The size of the army is getting bigger and bigger, but Zhu Mingxia feels that the ideological education of the army is still not enough, especially in the past year, the army has been exhausted from preparing for war, countering encirclement and suppression, and fighting public order warfare. Not much time was spent on the ideological work of grasping the troops. Wei Aiwen used to go to the company often, but in the past six months, he basically had no company to go down, and of course there were almost no troops on Ma Yuan's side, and it was also a fact that he was preparing various documents and holding meetings in the General Staff every day. It's a bit alienated from grassroots work. When the stall is big, it is easy to slack off.

Zhu Mingxia was full of worries, but his face was not at all lù, and after the soldiers shouted three times: "For the senate and the people", he took the lead in singing "The soldiers of the Fu bō army listen to the words of the senate the most", and the whole battalion returned to the Mayuan Fort station.

When I returned to the station, as usual, I was again a whole team and a comment, and only then did the "whole battalion disband". Each company was led by the company commander to take a bath. The living conditions in the fort were superior, and each battalion had a large shower room and boiler room, and it was possible to take a hot shower in winter and summer, and hygiene was the minimum condition for ensuring the combat effectiveness of the army.

Zhu Mingxia took off his military uniform, and was thinking of going to the bathroom attached to his dormitory to take a shower and change clothes, and then go to each company to check the condition of the soldiers, when the herald from the Mayuanbao Headquarters came: Fu Sansi asked him to go to the headquarters immediately.

"Let's go." Zhu Mingxia quickly wiped his face, changed into the clean uniform shirt that the orderly brought him and went to the headquarters.

The commander of Mayubao was concurrently served by Fu Sansi. As the weather got hotter, he spent another day training as a soldier on the cào field, wearing only a coarse cloth shirt of the army. Seeing Zhu Mingxia coming in, he first handed him an order.

He took it and looked at it, and the content of the order was to instruct Ma Yuanbao to form a "northbound detachment" on the spot with Zhu Mingxia's 4th Infantry Battalion as the backbone.

"It's finally time to do it!" Zhu Mingxia was excited, although this was expected.

"Yes, this time you're the detachment leader." Fu Sansi said.

In addition to the infantry battalion, the army northbound detachment strengthened a detachment of the special reconnaissance team, an artillery company, an engineer company, and a number of logistical support teams, with a total of 1,500 troops. Zhu Mingxia will serve as the head of the detachment, and it is also planned to appoint a chief of staff and a logistics director in the detachment. Form a complete independent combat formation.

"Everything else is easy to say," Fu Sansi said, "The 4th Battalion has always maintained combat readiness, and you have cào this group of boys hard enough, and the military and political quality is nothing to say." Other artillery, sapper and logistics detachments, to put it mildly, are ready-made. It's just that the problem of horses is not too easy to solve. ”

An artillery company has a theoretical establishment of 110 horses, and if the logistics and engineering detachments are to be equipped with a certain number of horses for pulling carts, they must add another 100 horses. The number of horses available in the army is far from sufficient.

If you play the same set of animals and pawns in the past, relying on people to pull carts and push them, then the number of the entire detachment will be far more than 1,500 people, and at least 1,000 people will be incorporated into the migrant labor team. And as far as the local húnluàn state of Dengzhou is concerned, it may not be reliable to requisition manpower on the spot.

The Dutch agreed to sell horses from Japan, but in a time and space where the speed of navigation was based on the month, it was unreliable to expect the Dutch to send horses in time.

Fu Sansi scratched his head: "Otherwise, I propose that the General Staff first defeat Jeju Island and take the official horses of the Li Dynasty on the island to equip the troops." ”

"This doesn't work, does it? Even a horse pulling a cart would have to be trained for a few days, let alone a cannon. Zhu Mingxia learned a lot of knowledge about the organization and operation of the army at that time when he was chatting with the people who were in line to shoot the party.

Fu Sansi said: "I have to buy a donkey-like Dian horse." ”

This is the most likely to replenish a sufficient number of horses in the short term. In the past, Director Hong, and now Minister Hong have always had a soft spot for Dian Ma, so everyone in the veteran officers of the Fu Bō Army knew about it.

Zhu Mingxia did not express an opinion on this, and he had no idea whether the Dian horse was suitable or not.

It is his principle not to talk about what he does not understand.

"Don't worry about this for now," Fu Sansi shook his head and said, "You first look at the sample of the new quilt sent by Thorpe." ”

On the conference table of the headquarters, there were piles of samples of the new quilts and logistics items that the northbound detachment needed, and asked Fu Sansi to organize the soldiers to try it out first and see if there were any things that needed to be improved.
