Chapter 15 The Benefits of Eggs
"Brother Yang, at the beginning, I was strongly opposed to you using this money, but now it seems that this money should really be spent!" Wei Dayong sat beside Yang Qi and said: "Most of these military families have run out of food, if it weren't for the collection of wild vegetables and wild fruits, I really don't know how to live in the future." ”
"Hmmm! Xing, the people are bitter! Death, the people suffer! Yang Qi put his arm around Wei Dayong, patted him lightly on the shoulder and said: "The people are difficult, the military household is not easy, we can do as much as we can, and it can be regarded as our service to the court and loyalty to the country!" ”
"Brother Yang said this, my old Wei doesn't understand, but there is one thing I understand, that is, as brothers, they must think about their brothers, these people follow the two of us, and they will be born and die in the future, we don't think about them, who will think about them?" Wei Dayong used his own words to try to explain the consciousness in Yang Qi's words.
"Not bad!" Yang Qi nodded, feeling that the road ahead was not so dark.
Wang Zhenshan and his entourage rode back slowly on a tall horse, he kept thinking about what Yang Qi did today, he thought that this kid must have a plan to buy so much food, but after seeing the truth, he admired it in his heart, from when he stood up for the sister-in-law of the Li family, to when he was beaten and his nose was blue and his face was swollen, he secretly applauded Lai Ye in his heart, but when Mrs. Li said and behaved, he felt that the blue nose and swollen face hanging on Yang Qi's face were not injuries, but honors, praise from civilians, and he couldn't understand it a little, This has a serious conflict with the values he has accepted since he was a child, and these "untouchables" actually moved him a little, and he faintly didn't know that something seemed to have been lightly touched in his heart.
"Someone!" Wang Zhenshan shouted softly.
"Here, young master!" A horse came up to him quickly, and the knight said with his fists clenched.
"Go back and tell the shopkeeper of Mi Xing that the grain sold to Yang Qi will be sold at the cost of the purchase price, and the excess silver taels will be returned to him." Wang Zhenshan said.
"Yes!" The knight received the order and whipped away.
Early the next morning, when the other barracks were still sleeping, Yang Qi had already called all the sergeants of his team.
"From now on, our team will be a whole team every day, roll call, morning exercises, and a five-mile fully armed cross-country long-distance run!" Yang Qi said loudly, he has reduced the difficulty, the recruits in the army are trained lightly, run three kilometers first, and then gradually increase the amount, Yang Qi plans to start from three kilometers, the ancients almost had to farm, and they have developed a good physical fitness, there are not many muscles in the body, but the endurance is really high, this time it is also a thorough training.
"Huh?!" All the sergeants said with their mouths wide open.
Behind you, there are firearms, equipment, and bags that have been prepared for them early in the morning, all wrapped with packing straps, and they are neatly carried on their shoulders, and Yang Qi went up and grabbed one on his back and showed it to everyone.
"Listen to my command, run~, go!" After Yang Qi gave the order, he ran out first. The soldiers saw that the little flag officer was like this, and they could only do this, so they ran one after another. After Yang Qi's calculations, the weight of a firearm and related ammunition accessories is about 15 catties, and after counting the bedding and five days' military rations, the total weight is about 25 catties, which is still okay.
"Listen to me! Adjust your pace, breathe evenly, inhale through your nose and exhale through your mouth to control your heart rate! Yang Qi ran and suddenly shouted: "One! Two! Three! Four! ”
"One! Two! Three! Four! The sergeants shouted together.
"One! Two! Three! Four! The sergeants' roars grew more and more in unison, like the voice of a man.
The six-mile armed off-road was completed quickly, but what Yang Qi didn't expect was that these ordinary soldiers actually reached the standard in only a quarter of an hour. In fact, the recruits of later generations trained three kilometers of cross-country, and the standard time was thirteen minutes, although it took these soldiers fifteen minutes to run a distance of 2.5 kilometers, compared with the two, the recruits were lightly armed off-road, and the soldiers were fully armed, and the recruits wore the army's standard rubber shoes on their feet, and the soldiers wore straw sandals after weaving.
"Excellent! I'm going to add you breakfast today! Yang Qi shouted.
"Little flag officer, what are you adding?" Seeing that Yang Qi was bold, he was in a good mood and asked casually.
"An egg per person!" Yang Qi knew by checking their waist cards that it was his military household that was questioning: Wang Yuan.
"Oh!" The soldiers immediately cheered loudly.
"It's been a long time since I've eaten an egg."
"yes, I don't remember how long."
"It seems that my mother is still alive at that time."
“....。”
Yang Qi listened to these painful feelings, and he didn't know when this kind of day would end.
At breakfast, each soldier really had an egg in his hand, and everyone was very happy. Why give soldiers eggs? It is the only nutrient that Yang Qi can add to them at the moment: protein! This thing can enhance immunity, the ancient corps often had attrition caused by non-combat reasons such as unadaptation, plague, hemorrhagic fever (plague), malaria and so on, which can be avoided by enhancing immunity. Second, it can increase muscle, resist fatigue, restore physical strength, and is conducive to continuous training. Don't look at it as just a small egg, it is still very useful, and in later generations, basically everyone will replenish eggs every day, but eating eggs is a luxury for Yang Qi at the moment, because the price of eggs is too expensive.
After breakfast, the next training is still standing in a military posture, followed by walking in unison, turning training, etc., and queue training.
"Start ~ Go!" Yang Qi himself walked back and forth in front of the queue to demonstrate to everyone.
"It's all optimistic, how to swing the arm, pay attention to the back swing action, try to swing back, when swinging forward, the hand, the arm part is straight, don't bend back, swing to, uh~, the position of the navel." Yang Qi encountered a trouble, the ancient military uniform did not have a placket, he was not very good at describing this part, so he thought of a way, swinging his arms forward and aligning with his navel.
"I'm not practicing anymore!"
"I don't practice anymore."
Yang Qi's enthusiasm for the orthodox religion suddenly said coldly to a military man in the queue.
"What's going on?" Yang Qi's face suddenly turned cold and asked.
"What the hell is going on with you?" Wei Dayong said angrily on the side: "You said that if you don't practice, you won't practice? ”
"Wei Dayong!" Yang Qi shouted: "This is queue training, you have something to shout 'report', have you forgotten the rules?" The rules in the army are military rules! ”
"Wei Dayong! Li Tianfu! Wang Yuan! Yang Qi pointed at the two of them and shouted: "Take a step forward~ go!" ”
The three of them took a step forward at the same time.
"The three of you run five laps around the school grounds!" Yang Qi took a look at the appearance of this school field, which is almost a thousand meters, and five laps is five kilometers of light equipment.
