Chapter 20: Training of the New Army (2)

Liu Sanshui turned over and said to Wang Fugui beside him: "Brother Wang, what's wrong?" ”

Wang Fugui glared at him and said, "What's the matter, this is a military camp, whenever you hear the sound of the horn, you must immediately go to the school to gather." ”

With that, he put on the middle coat that he had taken off.

"Ahh

Liu Sanshui exclaimed in surprise, and hurriedly put on his coat and coat in a similar way.

The entire barracks were in a mess, and some even rushed out with trouser pockets in their hands.

When they stumbled to the school grounds, they found that most of the trainees were just as panicked as they were, and they didn't know where to stand.

"Silence!"

As soon as the voice of Zhao Xin, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, sounded, the crowd immediately quieted down. They instinctively lined up, but they stood crookedly.

"Do you know why this official blew the horn at this time?"

Seeing that no one responded, Zhao Xin said coldly: "The most important thing in the army is to order and prohibit. You will definitely complain in your hearts, the official clearly said that the official will start formal training tomorrow, why do you want to toss you in the middle of the night. Yes, the official is to be surprised. From the moment you step into the barracks, you must demand yourself with the standards of the Son of Heaven's pro-army. ”

Zhao Xin's words made those who were confused and confused feel sleepy, and they hung their heads in shame.

"This is still training, if the two armies face each other, the enemy will raid the camp at night and take the opportunity to set a fire... If you still drag on like this, then we will all be burned in the fire! ”

Zhao Xin released his clenched fist and clenched it again: "That's it for today, and the official training will start tomorrow." The officers of each battalion took the trainees back to the barracks to rest! ”

It was only at this time that Liu Sanshui breathed a sigh of relief. After tossing and turning, I can finally lie in bed and sleep again.

Nothing was said all night.

The next day, the trumpet sounded again.

Liu Sanshui, like the other brothers in the barracks, got up as fast as he could, freshened up, and then went to the school yard to run exercises.

According to the rules during the training camp, before breakfast every day, the trainees must run five laps around the school field. In the words of His Majesty the Emperor, this is also about cultivating organizational discipline. Although everyone didn't quite understand the meaning of this word, since it was said by His Majesty the Emperor, it must be very reasonable.

After the run, everyone went to the room for breakfast.

Today's rebellion is rice porridge with pickles and white buns, and a boiled egg per person.

It's definitely a hearty meal for these bitter haha, who often don't have enough to eat.

Some people even cried out with emotion, muttering that if they could eat breakfast so well, they would not frown even if they were told to go to the tartars immediately.

Of course, the training camp will weed out people, and after a month, some of them are destined to leave the barracks. This makes them devote themselves to training with more enthusiasm and strive to have the last laugh.

The training on the first day was all queue training, which was also specially requested by Zhu Cihong.

In his view, the combat effectiveness of an army is directly reflected in the execution, and the strength of the execution is determined by the daily queue training.

What seems to be the simplest actions sometimes represents the spiritual outlook of an army, which is also very important to Zhu Cihong.

He had the intention to train this new army in the way of the Qi family's army, but before that, he was going to join the queue to train and polish the temperament of these newcomers.

"Take a break, stand upright, and look to the right!"

The officers of the battalions shouted slogans one after another. They had all been trained in advance by Zhao Xinzhao, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and as for the Zhao commander, they were personally taught by the Son of Heaven.

Liu Sanshui and Wang Fugui were divided into a row, and he followed the example of an officer of his team and put his hands tightly on his trouser legs, and then stepped out, closed his feet, and shook his head.

After several trainings, he mastered these movements proficiently, and he only felt beautiful in his heart. It seems that this queue training is not difficult.

But the next order of the officer of this team made Liu Sanshui feel the hard work of standing in line.

The officer instructed all men to remain in an upright position for half an hour, during which time no additional movement could be made.

At first, Liu Sanshui didn't think it was anything, but as time went by, he only felt itchy all over his body, and instinctively wanted to tickle it with his hands.

In addition, the weather in May (lunar calendar) was unbearably hot, and Liu Sanshui was already sweating.

The sweat on his forehead flowed into his eyes, and Liu Sanshui, who was stinging, was in pain, and he couldn't help rubbing it with his hands anymore.

It was such a subtle movement that was seen by the officers of the team, and he walked quickly in front of Liu Sanshui, with a whip on his head.

"Ahh

Liu Sanshui let out a painful cry, and when he looked closely, he saw that there was already a scarlet whip mark on his left arm.

Only then did he realize that he had made a mistake, and he trembled and whimpered: "General, general, I..."

"What nonsense, stand up for Lao Tzu. If you embarrass Lao Tzu again, you will go and get twenty military sticks yourself. ”

Knowing that he would not be kicked out of the barracks, Liu Sanshui's hanging heart could finally be put down. He immediately stood upright, and secretly said in his heart that he must fight for strength, and he must not be embarrassed in front of the robe again.

Next, they had to stand in a military posture for another hour, and although everyone complained in their hearts, they didn't dare to show anything, for fear that they would be eliminated at this first level.

It wasn't until noon that the training ended, and Zhao Xin announced that everyone's tense nerves were relaxed a little when they had lunch.

Fortunately, the lunch was big white rice with Dongpo meat, which made the soldiers who had worked hard for a long time very happy. They devoured their meals one by one, as if they were sorry for their sweat if they didn't.

The afternoon training was much the same as the morning, but with the addition of flag training. This is the most basic language that soldiers should master in the army. It now seems that it will take some time for them to fully grasp it, and many soldiers will misremember the color of the flag and react incorrectly.

On the stage, Zhu Cihong, who was dressed in civilian clothes, said with emotion: "The military spirit is available, but if you want to train them into an invincible strong army, there is a long way to go." ”

"Your Majesty is benevolent, you will definitely be able to train a strong army."

Zhao Xin saluted Zhu Cihong and said: "Half a year, the ministers need half a year at most, and they must be trained into a group of warriors who are not afraid of swords, guns, swords, and halberds." ”

"Good!"

Zhu Cihong suddenly had a sense of pride: "As long as Aiqing trains according to Qi Shaobao's military training method, I believe that the sons and daughters will definitely achieve great success!" ”

Zhu Cihong knew that his enemy must be the Manchu Qing, and he must use elite soldiers to deal with the elite of the Eight Banners like the Manchu Qing. It's useless to pile up the number of people like the Chongzhen Dynasty. Liaozhen has hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, but it is still scattered in a duel with the Eight Banners Army of tens of thousands of people.

There are not many soldiers, but they are fine, and training an elite soldier who is completely obedient to the orders of the Son of Heaven is indeed Zhu Cihong's top priority now.
