After the completion of the replenishment, the various armies were assigned to the prefectures and counties, and they not only undertook the task of combat training and deterring the localities, but also cooperated with the localities to open up post roads around the island. In line with the principle of 'work first and then life', the first to be put into construction was the Baisha Water Camp, and the work of moving Haikou to Tianjin and building a port was also carried out at the same time, and a series of defense facilities should be built and perfected, in order to be put into use as soon as possible.

Zhao Yu knew very well that there was not much time left for him, and now he had to take advantage of the fact that the enemy army in the north had no time to look south. Hainan Island is the place with the most tropical marine climate characteristics in China, warm and hot throughout the year, abundant rainfall, obvious dry and wet seasons, dry and spring drought, dry season from November to April and May of the following year, as long as six to qi months. May to October is the rainy season, with August and September being the most abundant, with heavy rains and typhoons.

In the past, the time of the invasion of Hainan was often chosen in the dry season, so the construction of the defense line had to be basically completed in a limited period of several months. As a result, the recruited civilians are definitely insufficient, and the army also has to undertake the tasks of training and garrisoning, so there is a contradiction. After several discussions, the officials adopted Zhao Hao's suggestion -- to implement the 'three-three system', that is, one-third of the army is responsible for garrison, one-third of the army is for training, and one-third of the army is put into construction, and it is rotated every month without delay.

Of course, there are exceptions, and that is the teaching team of the Shuai Fu Army. They are responsible for the training of professional and technical arms and grass-roots officers of various armies, and they hold a session every three months, training 800 trainees of various types in each period, and strive to complete the rotational training of all officers below the command level and the training of professional and technical personnel of all branches of the armed forces by the end of the year, and select outstanding personnel among them as reserve officers, with a view to playing a role in the war. Zhao Hao also demanded that short-term training courses be held for officers at and above the command level, and that they should be taught the way to lead troops, strategies and tactics, so as to improve their ability to lead troops......

In addition to his daily duties, Zhao Hao's main focus is now on the reorganization of the Destroying Front Army and the transformation of the turtle ship. Since the team of the Destroying Front Army is the old army of the Song Army, although it has some combat effectiveness, it will inevitably be contaminated with bad problems such as lax military discipline, deception and concealment, and deduction of military salaries. Zhao Yu removed Ma Fa, the original commander of the Destroying Front Army, just to cut off their connection with the old army. The new commander Chen Renweng was born in a scholarly family, is young, educated, and energetic, and is easy to accept new things. And although he has been outstanding, he has not yet rolled in the big dye vat of officialdom, his thinking is still relatively simple, he is competitive, and he wants to do something for the country and the people, so he can use him to change the atmosphere of the first army.

The reason why Zhao Yu chose the Destroying Front Army and the Brave Army as the team to build the new army is that both armies have actual combat experience, and the grassroots officers are relatively complete, which is convenient for the formation of combat effectiveness; Second, both armies have naval armies, although they are declining, but they have accumulated a deep foundation for a hundred years. But if you want to build the Destroyer Army into a benchmark for the whole army, you still have to make efforts to transform it.

Chen Renweng was appointed by the prince as the commander of the Destroying Front Army, so he was naturally high-spirited and ready to do a big job. He knew that everything he did came from His Highness, and he also entered the palace several times to ask for face-to-face teaching. And after coming down twice, he found that His Royal Highness's child was really not ordinary, he was simply a demon, and the methods of the whole person were endless, and he felt like he was on a thief ship. But he still very much agrees with His Royal Highness's statement: In extraordinary times, extraordinary means must be used, and fierce medicines must be used to cure evil diseases.

In fact, Zhao Yu's method is not an innovation, he just combined some military service regulations in later generations with the management methods in enterprises, and formulated a set of management methods that can be called 'harsh' to restrain their behavior, improve their combat skills, and stimulate their courage. He knows that people actually have potential, and sometimes they have to force it. For example, in order to survive, he can say that he has used all the methods of good and evil, which can be said to be racking his brains and calculating all the mechanisms, but in his previous life, he would rather stay alone on that broken ship and wait for death than try to break through the invisible barrier.

For this reason, the camp selected by Zhao Yu for the Destroying Feng Army is also very unique, it is an undeveloped and uninhabited island belonging to Qiongshan County, where food and use need to be transported from the outside world, and the fresh water on the island is only barely enough to drink. And he has already ordered the soldiers on the island to inform them that the treatment of the new Destroyer Army is the highest, not only can they eat well, but they can also eat well, and there will be rewards for doing a good job. But there is no waste here, they only need 2,000 people in the end, or even less, and those who do not meet the standard have only two ways - either die or go to a hard labor camp, there is no other way!

Of course, it is not enough to improve the treatment and high pressure, one soft and one hard, and the cultivation of a sense of honor is also necessary. Zhao Yu knew that an army without a sense of honor had no soul, and the cultivation of a sense of honor needed to start from little by little, and then he and Chen Zeweng formulated a set of plans after several discussions. For example, a single soldier who is outstanding in a certain training can give him an extra bucket of water, and the group with outstanding performance will be rewarded with a chance to leave the island. With the infiltration of a sense of honor, the material can be turned into a spiritual reward, which can be a unique flag of honor, a medal, or even a symbol. In the end, the goal of honor is better than life.

As for whether it works or not, Zhao Yu knows that no matter how bastard he is, he will have self-esteem, and he also hopes to be respected by others and recognized by everyone. In the army in the previous life, some soldiers could break their legs for a single praise; For a military medal can give with life; For the sake of collective honor, the entire company did not retreat in the face of a strong enemy, and there are countless examples of all sacrifices; And a country can not hesitate to start a war for the sake of an inch of land, and a nation does not hesitate to raise its nationality for the sake of dignity, and I don't know how many times it has been staged in the long river of history.

Of course, the formation of the Destroyer Army is to fight a war, and training is essential. And now the turtle ship ready to be installed is still in the design stage, and there is no way to enter practical operation. But Zhao Yu knew that the battle could break out at any time, and who knew if Kublai Khan would one day make a mistake and do something that would change history. Therefore, he decided to intersperse the operation skills of the turtle boat in addition to the basic training. How can you train without a boat? The old-timers have already given the answer, riding on the bench to practice horseback riding, sitting on the horse to practice paddling, shaking the board to practice shooting and other seemingly joke things to do, but it has proved to be effective......
