When the drill was conducted early the next morning, the entire infantry battalion had already shown a completely different mental outlook from yesterday!

The soldiers of the two companies wore uniform uniforms, which were of course designed by Xiao Yao, referring to modern clothing, and changed the wide sleeves of the robe of Hanfu at this time, and turned it into a narrow-sleeved shirt and belt pants, and leggings on their feet! The whole shape is slim and concise, and there are no extra decorations, making the soldiers' movements more convenient and flexible!

On top of that, they're wearing a set of paper armor! It was the paper armor that Zu Yuan specially made for the infantry battalion!

This paper armor comes in two colors, one is black and the other is brown, which is easy for everyone to distinguish! Moreover, according to Xiao Yao's requirements, Zu Yuan made the paper armor according to the size of three yards, and there was no need to measure the soldier's figure at all, which greatly saved the production time.

The two companies were led by He Fu and Li Nong, standing neatly in front of the stage, and there were Huang Wenyuan and Zhang Dabao standing next to the two, the two of them were also wearing paper armor for the first time, not to mention, it was much lighter than iron armor, and the style was also quite handsome!

A thousand soldiers stood straight, although the effect of this upright position could not be compared with the veterans of the Fire Dragon Battalion, but it had changed a lot compared to yesterday, and if you looked closely, you could find that many people had blue noses and swollen faces, obviously they had received patient "counseling and education".

Yesterday, when He Fu and Li Nong went to take over the two teams that had been disrupted, there must have been people who didn't understand, and even some people took the lead in resisting!

But these veterans who have been on the battlefield, although they are stronger than the new soldiers, are still ordinary soldiers, and they are definitely not the opponents of the special forces of the Fire Dragon Battalion, who have been strictly trained by Gao Yuan and Xiao Yao!

So, to deal with this group of diehards, first beat you until you can't resist; Deal with it with another sentence of military law, which scares you and you don't dare to say more; Then give some benefits, send a new military uniform and send a set of paper armor; After that, he sent a spiritual cake and carried out ideological education, saying that Xiao Yao was all kinds of good, and that there were various benefits of being a soldier under him, etc., and the reorganization of the infantry battalion was completed in half a day.

Xiao Yao was also very satisfied with this result, looking at this army in the true sense of obeying his orders, he had mixed feelings in his heart: It's not easy, I have paid so much and calculated so much, this is the first step to achieve the hegemony in my heart!

"Today is the first appearance of the infantry battalion after the reorganization, and I, as your commander, am very happy to see such a big change in you! Do you like my gift to you! Xiao Yao shouted.

"I like it!" The trained soldier answered more neatly and loudly. And this is a heartfelt response, because Chen Guo mainly formed an army by recruiting homeless people as soldiers, and the soldiers started with a knife, and as for other equipment, those who had money bought it themselves, and those who didn't have money relied on robbing.

Now he actually gave himself a set of paper armor that has been circulating wildly in the army recently, which suddenly made the soldiers grateful to this young but generous commander!

"This is the first batch of paper armor carefully made by the General Paper Mill, and I bought it as soon as it was made and gave it to you, and the soldiers in other military camps can't touch it! Because you are my soldiers! I want you to wear the best gear and take the best weapons to battle! And I can guarantee that the paper armor is just the beginning, and if you win the battle in the future, I will reward you with more good things, depending on whether you have the ability to take it! ”

"Yes!" Every soldier straightened their chests and looked at Xiao Yao.

"Okay, infantry battalion, formal training!"

。。。。。。

The first phase of the training of the infantry battalion was designed by Xiao Yao in accordance with the project of modern recruit military training, and there was no formation and tactical drill, only basic queue training and physical strengthening training.

Queue training is to polish the personality of soldiers through training such as standing upright, walking in unison, running, military posture, etc., so that soldiers can form a conditioned reflex to obey orders.

Physical training is a variety of high-intensity combinations such as a small trot a day, a big run in three days, push-ups, frog jumps, single parallel bars, crawling forward, field pulling exercises, etc.

There is also the most important ideological education class, through the model of veterans leading recruits, a veteran of the fire dragon battalion leads recruits from multiple infantry battalions, and carries out MLM-style brainwashing every day to improve the loyalty of soldiers to Xiao Yao!

。。。。。。

After a month of recruit military training, these thousand soldiers have been trained by Xiao Yao to be reborn, not only do they not have the habit of being a hooligan like of the old soldier Youzi before, but they have become more united, the soldiers of the two route armies before they were grouped together and looked down on each other, and now they have become good brothers who take care of each other!

"Childe, today the musket team and the first company went to the field for training, and they came back with a lot of game, but they didn't give us the second company at all, I heard that Huang Wenyuan's kid also played with the musket team today, and said that he hit a wild boar, you didn't look at his sassy appearance! We were in the second company, and every day we were either standing in the sun and drying in the sun, or we were taking some arithmetic class, surveying and drawing class, and I was moving those powder boxes, and I was almost suffocated! Yang Tong was complaining to Zhang Dabao again.

"Huang Wenyuan can play with that kind of musket?" Zhang Dabao also showed an envious expression, "I also asked Company Commander Li, and he said that the combat methods of the first company and the second company are different, we are long-range strikes, and we must first practice the basic skills before we can touch those magical weapons called artillery!" ”

"And how long are we going to practice?"

"I don't know."

。。。。。。

Xiao Yao was called to Cheng Wenji's main general barracks, where Wu Mingche was already sitting.

"See General Wu and General Cheng for subordinates. Today, General Wu personally came to the forward battalion, has he already thought about it? Xiao Yao got straight to the point.

"Shiro, you are also a soldier of our Da Chen now, how can you be so philistine, you say that you want to be loyal to the country, and now we are requisitioning your Fire Dragon Battalion, we will give you money, this is also ridiculous!" Wu Mingche pretended to be angry and said.

"Don't pretend, you've already explained the problem in person today!" Xiao Yao unceremoniously exposed him, "The Fire Dragon Battalion is not part of the army, and it does not receive the salary of the imperial court, now I will let them contribute to you, and you still don't want to give money, who is ridiculous?" ”

"Then your requirements are too harsh, you said that the last drill consumed 500 catties of gunpowder, and it cost your master half a year's dividends, this Northern Expedition, the fire dragon battalion will definitely consume more gunpowder, if we come to bear these expenses, then the other troops will have no money." Wu Mingche's face changed instantly, and he cried poorly.

"Then use the loot to deduct it! And only when you win the battle will you have the spoils of war, and if you lose, I don't have the face to ask you for money, this condition is the most cost-effective for you! Xiao Yao said with a smile.

"I'm afraid that once this precedent is set, it will cause others to follow suit or be dissatisfied, and there will be a lot of trouble at that time!" Wu Mingche is also more inclined to this condition, but he is afraid of the impact it will bring.

"A soldier is to take victory or defeat as the standard, win a war, do everything reasonably, and defeat a war, no matter how reasonable it is, it is unreasonable! If you win, you will be rewarded, and it is rightfully justified! Whoever is red-eyed will let him win the battle too! Xiao Yao said his crooked reasoning.

"Okay! I'll allow you not to hand over all the loot then! The premise is that you have to win the battle! Wu Mingche clapped his hands and said.

"Of course, with the Fire Dragon Battalion, it will definitely be invincible and invincible!" Xiao Yao's smiling face with a successful plan.
