Chapter 293: Simple Military Parade
With the increase in the number of volunteers, the number exceeded 100,000, and more than seventy percent of the volunteers had never seen Chen Zijian.
This is a problem, as the best leader, if the Volunteers have not seen what he looks like, how can the Volunteers have an impression of loyalty.
As the leader of the volunteers, it is impossible and unnecessary for Chen Zijian to know all his brothers, and the number of volunteers will exceed one million in the future, even if Chen Zijian has a strong memory, it is impossible to remember all the volunteers.
But on the contrary, Chen Zijian can not know all the volunteers, and as a member of the volunteers, he must have met Chen Zijian, the leader.
A series of orders went down, and today, a grand military parade in the barracks began.
Yesterday, Chen Zijian's order was issued, and the six regiments will pass through the parade booth in a combination of 10 people in a row of 10 people and a column of 10 people according to different regiments.
Chen Zijian, a kind of volunteer officer, was on the booth, allowing all the volunteers to see their "bandit" leader.
At this time, Chen Zijian was wearing a warlord dress during the later Republic of China, with a gray hat on his head, and several red bands on top of the hat, which added some color.
Before Chen Zijian arrived at the barracks, he heard the shouts of training in the distance and the majestic and heroic battle songs of the soldiers.
Chen Zijian's arrival naturally caused a lot of commotion, and many brothers who entered the Volunteer Army, today's military parade will be the first time to see this respected chief.
The reason why the volunteers respect Chen Zijian is very simple, because Chen Zijian gave them the opportunity to be promoted and make a fortune, if there was no Chen Zijian, the people here would have always been at the bottom of the society, living a life with today and no tomorrow.
Chen Zijian gathered them together and had the power to challenge the authority of the government, and with the current combat effectiveness of the volunteers, it was already stronger than the power of the government.
If Chen Zijian is in need, a group of red-eyed volunteers will work hard for this chief who brings them opportunities.
For the people who can't read a few words, it is not as easy to use any reason as being promoted to get rich, and Chen Zijian is the one who gave them a chance.
Of course, it's not easy to get mixed up in the Volunteers, the Volunteers take the squad as the combat unit, and the Volunteers are lazy in the squad and pull the back legs of the squad, and no one will definitely want to team up with him in the future, and no one will team up with the Volunteers, so Zai can only do supply things in logistics.
Those who enter the Volunteer Army are thinking about getting promoted and making a fortune, and promotion and wealth require military merit, and staying in logistics is definitely something that Mao can't earn, and the merit has long been robbed by the volunteers in front, who would be stupid enough to give the credit to others.
Chen Zijian rode into the camp with a majestic face, and slowly walked into the camp under the enthusiastic and fanatical eyes of the volunteers. The top brass of the six legions have all arrived, except for the generals who lead the training on the school grounds.
Chen Zijian just saw the big tent, Li Shi, Niu Sheng, and several army commanders with a group of officers, all of them bowed and saluted: "Good chief!" ”
Compared with the people of Zhangjiacheng who call Chen Zijian the city lord, in the volunteer army, they call Chen Zijian the chief, which is the military salute prescribed by the figure in the barracks.
"Please be seated, how are you ready?" Li Shi came out and said: "Please rest assured, the chief is ready to start at any time." ”
Before Chen Zijian came, Li Shi, Niu Sheng, Zhang Yu, Zhang Lin, Zhang Wu, and Li Hu had already discussed, and their subordinates were all ready, just waiting for Chen Zijian to come over.
Although they did not understand the intention of Chen Zijian's military parade, Chen Zijian's order was unconditionally carried out.
Chen Zijian nodded and said, "Order the whole army to prepare." ”
Li Shi got up and said, "My subordinates obey the order!" ”
The parade was a grand ceremony, and the senior management of Zhangjiacheng also attended, in order to make them realize the great strength of the volunteers.
All the officers were solemn and respectful, and went out to prepare.
The 100,000 soldiers in the school field are magnificent, the number of people is boundless, more than 100,000, it is even more exaggerated, and the surrounding military flags are blowing in the wind.
Although the weather is sunny, it also shows a bit of a sassy feeling. The 100,000-strong army was divided into six camps with different legions.
Chen Zijian appeared on the booth, and several legions of the Volunteer Army were all assembled.
Of course, not all the people came to the parade, starting with Chen Zijian's personal guard regiment.
With a population of 300,000 in Zhangjiacheng and about 100,000 in the Volunteer Army, 100,000 of the 400,000 people were selected as soldiers, which is an exaggerated proportion.
If Chen Zijian focused on the development of agriculture, such a model would undoubtedly drag Zhangjiacheng down, because so many people joined the army, and the food produced by the people was simply not enough to eat, and in the end there was only a share of collapse.
Chen Zijian mainly discovered the marine fishing industry, and with the abundance of marine fishery resources in this era, a small number of people could produce a large amount of meat, plus the original grain, and easily feed 100,000 volunteers.
Zhangjiacheng doesn't need too many people to grow local food, no, Zhangjiacheng's food ratio is like this, meat is eight points, grain is two points, meat and vegetables are the mainstay, and grain is supplemented.
Zhangjiacheng's 50 large cement warehouses store a large amount of canned meat, which is processed from fish caught in the ocean. With whale oil as a preservation medium, the shelf life of canned food can be two years, three years.
In fact, according to the food of this era, as long as you don't eat dead people, there is no problem in keeping it for five or six years.
The marine fishing industry is the mainstay, feeding more than 400,000 people in Zhangjiacheng.
Only then did the current stable situation occur, if the people had no food to eat, and there was no need for the government to encircle and suppress, Zhangjiacheng would fall apart by itself.
Because of the stable and cheap supply of a large amount of meat in Zhangjiacheng, compared with the people of the Ming Dynasty, the people of Zhangjiacheng are obviously much better.
The booth was not far away, and after Chen Zijian signaled, the volunteers took a sledgehammer and beat it hard.
"Bang ......"
Li Shi stood there very sassy and shouted, "The military parade begins!" ”
In an instant, in addition to the first big drum beating, the other nine big drums beat at the same time, and in an instant, bursts of drums were heard all around.
As the first regiment under Chen Zijian, the pro-guard regiment held a military parade at the minimum.
The ceremony of the military parade is relatively simple, and it is not as uniform as the Chinese military parade ceremony in later generations. It gives a strong visual impact.
The first personal guard volunteers, carrying a mini gun on their shoulders, passed in front of the booth and leaned over with their heads facing Chen Zijian.
Chen Zijian was dressed in dazzling clothes, implying that the volunteers who had never seen him were their allegiance, and when they worked hard in the future, they should remember that this face would honor their credit afterwards.
Li Tieshan is nearly two meters tall, as Chen Zijian's first personal guard, walking at the front of the team, this moment is undoubtedly his most beautiful moment at present.
At the beginning, he was beaten by Chen Zijian with half of his life, Chen Zijian saw that he was a good material to block bullets, and accepted him as one of the personal guards, after all this time, Li Tieshan defeated Chen Zijian's other personal guards with his fists and became the first person.
When there was a white line, Li Tieshan immediately saluted Chen Peng's right hand at the booth, and the volunteers behind him saw this and immediately followed suit.
The salute posture of the hundred-person team was not at the same time, and it looked a little chaotic, Chen didn't care about these, and looked at the volunteers who walked by with a smile.
A team of 100 people quickly walked by, and as a pro-guard regiment, the number of artillery was naturally quite large.
In addition to the number of perverted ships in the navy, the number of artillery in the Guards Regiment is the largest, and having mastered the technology of artillery production, the Guards Regiment is equipped with five hundred.
Today's artillery is not a cutting-edge technology, it is a cast round steel, processed by lathes and boring machines, and the quality of such artillery is better than that of the traditional artillery built in the Ming Dynasty.
The 2,000 volunteers behind passed by with horses and artillery.
Zhang Youde walked a little behind Chen Zijian, "The city lord is amazing, in the past, the city wall of Maoming County was only three or five cannons, and compared with the chief, it is really the difference between heaven and earth." ”
Zhang Youde is now connected with Chen Zijian, one is prosperous, and the other is lost, and the stronger Chen Zijian's military strength is, the better it will be for him.
Not to mention the kind of Minnie gun that can kill the enemy from a hundred steps away, after this period of accelerated production, the people in the volunteer army who are suitable for shooting are equipped with Minny guns, which is already so powerful that they have no friends.
Now that there is only one guard regiment, there is no end in sight, and the power of the Volunteers is so strong!
Although Zhang Youde did not have the provincial capital of Eastern Guangdong Province, he could think that Chen Zijian had any thoughts about the provincial capital, which could be easily taken without any effort.
Needless to say, if you put hundreds of artillery pieces outside the provincial capital and keep bombarding, you won't be able to have a few officers and soldiers dare to go up to the city wall to defend it.
Chen Zijian smiled, "Hehe, it's okay, when you are busy in the future, help me take care of the school." I'm going to go out soon. ”
Chen Zijian told Zhang Youde about the plan for the first time, and knew that as the deputy city lord of Zhangjiacheng, he was the best manager here after Chen Zijian went out.
"Is the city lord going?"
If others naturally don't dare to ask directly, but Zhang Youde is different, he has the right to know some of Chen Zijian's plans.
Chen Zijian didn't say much, just two words: "Northeast!" ”
Zhang Youde's heart was shocked, and he instantly understood what Chen Zijian meant, a little unbelievable, a member of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Youde, even in the southern region of the Ming Dynasty, also knew that the imperial court was forced to tighten step by step by the Northeast Tartars.
There has been news that the Qing soldiers in the Northeast have entered the customs and are causing trouble in the Central Plains.
It is conceivable that there will be something tragic in the Central Plains, and the Qing soldiers, as invaders, may be polite to the people of the Ming Dynasty!
Chen Zijian is going to the Northeast, which means needless to say.
Zhang Youde hurriedly bowed, "My subordinates thank the city lord for all the people." ”
"Hehe, then you and the owner of the village help me take care of Zhangjiacheng, this is my back road, and I don't allow any mistakes."
Zhang Youde knew who the owner of the village was, Zhang Sanbei, Chen Zijian's former boss, Chen Zijian was unwilling to have someone on his head, so he went out of the cottage and laid a piece of land by himself, but recovered Zhang San.
In the past, Li Xian, as the commander of the legion, brought his legion over, and similarly, came over in a phalanx of 100 people.
The advantage of this is that after passing by the volunteers in front of the booth, anyone can clearly see Chen Zijian's appearance, and will not treat Chen Zijian as an outsider after meeting him in the future.
Then Li Hu passed by with the legion.
100,000 volunteers passed by the booth for four hours, during which Chen Zijian stood on the booth to check the morale of the volunteers.
After not going out to fight for such a period of time, the volunteers' hearts could not be suppressed, and their morale was high, so they went through more than a month of shooting practice in order to earn credit.
There were quite a few volunteers who crippled a few barrels, but fortunately, Chen Zijian had enough barrel factories and eight barrel processing centers. The daily production of more than 1,500 mini barrels is enough for the volunteers to practice marksmanship without restrictions.
The volunteers dare not say that they have 100 shots and 100 hits within 100 meters, at least with an accuracy rate of more than 30%, this probability is already very high.
After all, don't expect the Minnie gun to have a hit rate of 100 shots, and the more accurate guns of later generations may not be able to achieve it.
The last navy has passed, and today's parade is considered complete, and the navy did not have artillery to pull it over this time, because their guns are all on battleships, and it is not necessary to disassemble them in order to participate in the parade. I want to talk about "The Thief at the End of the Ming Dynasty" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find a confidant~
