On August 12, after the dust had settled. Okabe Motonobu and others also returned to the station, and Yu Qiupei followed the troops of Imagawa Yoshimoto and Sena Shitoshi with his two hundred subordinates on the way back.

In the past few days, Yu Qiuping has not been idle at all. Asahina Taehyung went out to play by himself once, helped bury his fallen subordinates, and chose a cemetery for a day. He talked to Sena Shijun again, and Imagawa Yoshimoto also summoned Yu Qiuhei once. The girl also took the time to secretly come to see Yu Qiuping twice. Every night, Yuqiuping is busy folding red leaves. In his spare time, he also has to help his subordinates who are messing around in Okazaki City to deal with the aftermath.

On the day before his return, Imagawa Yoshimoto summoned Yu Qiuhei and asked him to lead the army independently on the way back, learn some common sense of the military camp, and train the troops while resting and staying.

In the various war books that Yu Qiuping originally read, they basically focused on battle formations, and there was very little introduction to camping. The first time he operated it in person, Yu Qiuping found that it was so difficult to set up camp. Although I brought my own tent cloth for camping, I had to cut down all kinds of wood for camping. The location of the camp is also very particular, it is necessary to be close to the water source to facilitate the access to water, not too close to the mountains, to choose a place with few mosquitoes, and to choose a cool place in summer......

In addition to this, how many marching tents were needed to accommodate all the people, how much timber was to be cut, how many stoves were needed to feed so many people, the size of the camp, and all sorts of problems seemed to never end. It's just a camp of 200 people! Sanitation in the camps is also a concern, especially for the soldiers. Yu Qiuping saw with his own eyes that Yoshioka Katsumasa finished pulling the tuba, and touched it with a small wooden stick, but his hands were not washed, and he continued to eat. And his poop was randomly pulled in an open space in the camp, and he grabbed a handful of dirt and threw it on it.

This really makes Yu Qiuping disgusting. So he asked the troops to build latrines the next time they set up camp. Dig a lot of small pits, and after the ashigaru has finished urinating, they have to dig and fill in the soil by themselves, and then they have to wash their hands!

Simply beside him, Asahina Taehyung followed. Although he was not interested in etiquette, politics, or culture at all, he seemed to be quite concerned about marching and fighting. Under his guidance, Yu Qiuping gained a lot.

However, the training problems of the ashigaru people plagued Yu Qiuping. He had never trained as a soldier, and he didn't know how soldiers were trained in ancient times. It happened that on the first day of training, Asahina Taehyung went out hunting. Yu Qiuping could only catch ducks on the shelves and use the routines of his freshman military training.

"I'll teach you a standard stance first." Yu Qiupei still divided his subordinates into 5 squads, Fukushima Yasunari, Mimaezaki Nakahide, Yoshioka Katsumasa, Ogawa Yuto, and Charlie were each responsible for one, and each of them was given the title of Ashigaru General. Keitori Amano and Kin Bei were also appointed as Ashigaru Shogun. Yu Qiuping's team demonstrated what a standard standing posture is, and helped Ashigaru correct it one by one. "Keep your chest up and your head tucked in, your heels together, your toes tilted, and your hands close to the seams of your pants!" Yu Qiuping shouted the trumpet that the instructor shouted at that time. After everyone learned to stand upright, Yu Qiuping asked everyone to stand upright for two quarters of an hour, and he patrolled one by one to help them correct their movements.

"My lord, you're doing this weird thing." Mimasaki Nakahide muttered dissatisfiedly, "Isn't it all about martial arts in general training, what are you letting us practice standing posture for, it's not difficult at all." His complaint resonated with a lot of ashigaru around him.

"A good soldier is a standing face!" Yu Qiuping said, "You guys who don't stand on the other side are too many to disgrace the name of our Red Leaf Army." Yu Qiuping smiled, "Moreover, it's not simple at all, you will know it after standing for a long time." ”

Yu Qiuping's words dispelled everyone's complaints, and in order to be in the limelight, there is nothing wrong with practicing standing posture. At first, one by one, Ashigaru was wearing new clothes, standing straight and quite neat. Soon, these ashigaru people who had never stood in a military posture quickly couldn't bear it, sweating profusely, their movements began to deform, and everyone began to take advantage of Yu Qiuping's departure to be lazy and change to some comfortable standing postures. But once such behavior is discovered by Yu Qiuping, he will ask for twenty push-ups on the spot. For this Yu Qiuping also personally demonstrated how to do push-ups.

The time of two quarters of an hour finally came, and the ashigaru people were so tired that they sat on the ground to rest. Yu Qiuping let everyone rest for a quarter of an hour, and then conduct two quarters of an hour of standing training. This can't help but make everyone complain.

"Does it work?" Nakahide Omaezaki complained again.

"Of course it's useful, train to look like a soldier." Yu Qiuping glared at him dissatisfied, "Look at you, carry out a few orders, and after training for a while, you will be miserable!" What the army wants, it is an order to forbidden! It's discipline! Yu Qiuping said, "In the future, anyone who fails to carry out the order well will be punished!" Do push-ups! Yu Qiuping smiled, "Mimasaki Nakahide!" It starts with you! Do! ”

As a result, this standing training lasted for four days. During the training, Yu Qiuping suddenly found the pleasure of the abuser, and tortured all the resentment of the instructor who tortured him back then on others, which made him so happy. When he was in military training in his first year of high school, he often moved around because he talked a lot. The angry instructor put a leaf on his head and a leaf in his mouth for him to hold with his lips. One leaf drop is twenty push-ups. One morning did more than a hundred rain autumn flats. Such humiliation and grief and indignation are still fresh in Yuqiuping's memory. So, now that he has the opportunity to be an instructor, he can't wait to punish his men.

At first, he can easily pick out a certain ashitaru fault and let him start doing push-ups on the spot. Because Mimasaki Nakahide complained the most, he was once given special care by Yu Qiuping, staring at him, and he had to do push-ups if he had a little deformation. So, in order not to do push-ups, Nakahide Omaezaki made rapid progress, and soon, Yuakihei had to do everything in his power to pick out his problems. By the time he couldn't do anything about Mimasaki Nakahide anymore, his vision had already been raised very tricky.

He suddenly realized that the standing posture of all the ashigaru people did not seem to be up to standard. And so, the nightmare of the ashigaru began. Yu Qiuping was like a ghost, picking on each of their movements, and the slightest inappropriateness was push-ups. At one point, there were more people lying on their stomachs than standing. In order to avoid punishment, the ashigaru people even had to exchange their experiences before going to bed at night, and when they lay down to sleep, some people kept an upright position.

Driven by the devilish supervision of Rain Akihei and the desire to escape the push-ups, the movements of the ashigaru have improved rapidly. Four days later, with Yu Qiuping's unprofessional level, it was already difficult to find any problems with the ashigaru's standing posture. One by one, I perfectly raised my chest and raised my abdomen, with my hands close to the seams of my trousers, and my eyes looking ahead. Even if Yu Qiuping circled around in front of and behind him, he didn't dare to move—otherwise it would be push-ups.

When Yu Qiuping found that his standing posture could not satisfy his desire for punishment, he introduced another set of punishment mechanisms - discipline. Anyone who violates discipline or orders, do push-ups! So, as soon as the wake-up call rang in the morning, Yu Qiuping would wait at the meeting place and start catching people who were late. Grabbing one is push-ups. At night, when the lights go out, people who speak loudly are also caught doing push-ups. When training, I arrive late and leave early, distracted, and I still do push-ups. Later, even before eating, Yu Qiuping didn't say anything about starting the meal, so he began to eat push-ups. Originally, this Yu Qiuping didn't plan to punish him, but as soon as he saw that it was Mizenzaki Nakahide's violation, he didn't say a word and had one more rule - he had to wait for an order before eating. Later, such an order gradually spread to every part of daily life, such as after training, if Yu Qiuping did not shout to disband, he also had to do push-ups.

Later, when the passing Asahina Taehyung entered the barracks to greet him, he was standing in a military posture, and none of the Ashigaru who had not received the order dared to pay attention to him. This can make Asahina Taihyung angry. Until Yu Qiuping let out a cry of "That's it, disband!" After the order, the relieved Ashigaru kowtowed one after another and apologized to Asahina Taehyung, making him cry and laugh.

"You're a good soldier, it's kind of interesting." Asahina Taehyung laughed. "At least this discipline, tsk, is comparable to our Asahina family's flag team."

After the standing posture was completed, Yu Qiuhei began to teach the ashigaru military salute. He asked his own ashigaru in the future, when facing the superiors of his family, they did not have to kowtow and salute, and uniformly used military salutes. That is, a salute. "We are all partners in life and death, and not so long ago we were all ordinary people. Now all of a sudden, everyone is kowtowing and kowtowing, and I feel very uncomfortable. "That's why Yu Qiuping is coming." Everyone is a free person, and all free people are equal, just because of the difference in position. "Although the ashigaru people can't understand what equality is when Yu Qiuhei speaks, it's always a good thing not to kowtow. A few people who didn't change it and subconsciously kowtowed were also punished to do push-ups.

The reform that Yu Qiuping wanted to implement when he was in Zhili City, with the foundation laid by the previous standing training and discipline training, the process of military salute training was very fast. When the military posture was first taught, the bustling pushing and shoving of everyone no longer appeared. Instead, they stood up one by one as if facing the enemy, waiting for Yu Qiuping's demonstration.

Although Yu Qiuping's training was very hard, the ashigaru people often complained that Yu Qiuping was like a devil. But in fact, I am still full of gratitude to Yu Qiuping in my heart. They know that when other armies train, offending a general is a beating board, where can there be such a light punishment as push-ups. And Yu Qiuping's abolition of kneeling and bowing gave them a sense of respect. The ashigaru are no longer regarded by the generals.

A day later, when the military salute was also completed, Yu Qiuping began to train everyone to line up. According to Yu Qiuping's requirements, the ashigaru were divided into five groups and trained in four horizontal columns. After lining up the line, Yu Qiuping shouted to disband. After the ashigaru people finished eating, they immediately shouted for gathering. If you can't find the team's ashigaru within the allotted time, you have to do push-ups. Yoshioka Katsumasa's team failed to form because many people forgot their positions, and the whole team did push-ups together.

The four horizontal columns have been mastered by the ashigaru people, and after they can't easily punish people for doing push-ups, Yu Qiuping introduced a queue change. For example, the four-column horizontal column became two columns, but it was quickly mastered by the ashigaru, and a few people were not punished at all.

As a last resort, Yu Qiuping introduced the three-sided turning method. He found that the biggest difficulty was to get the ashigaru to distinguish between the left and right—there were more than 150 of them who were not separated. So, Yu Qiuping asked them to press their hands to their chests, looking for the location of their hearts—that side was on the left. Although there will still be some confusion among the ashigaru, Yu Qiuping is so happy that he can't do it - there is another chance to punish people for push-ups!

After figuring out the left and right, Yu Qiuping began to make it difficult to move his feet when spinning. Do push-ups with your heels off the ground, do push-ups when you don't make a sound when you kick your legs, and do push-ups when your arms are turning again...

By the time the three-sided turning method was also conquered by the ashigaru, the team had already reached Suruga. Yu Qiuping then began to teach the procession again. The ashigaru were asked to jog in a line, turn in three directions in a queue, or even rotate in a fan. When running, four people in a row do push-ups without a neat row of four people doing push-ups together, turning on three sides, and rotating the fan surface are not done, and the whole team does push-ups...

Under Yu Qiuping's devil training, even he didn't notice it. In the ten days since they returned to the city, his team has improved in terms of military posture, queue and discipline. Although this is compared to the modern army, Yu Qiuping has only trained the army's discipline, organization, and ability to change queues for more than ten days, and it is only pediatrics. But compared with the ancient Japanese army, which had a weak sense of teamwork and not to mention discipline, this can already be regarded as an iron army.

So much so that on the night before arriving at Sunfu Castle, Imagawa Yoshimoto, who came to take a casual look, was deeply shocked by the spiritual outlook of Yu Qiuping's team, the prohibition of the order, and a series of queue changes and military postures.

He looked at the two hundred people under Yu Qiuping's command, arranged into a huge phalanx, and with Yu Qiuping's command, they were neatly and uniformly trained in the three-sided transformation method, and it was difficult to find a person who was slow and half a beat. And when Yu Qiuping issued the command of "forward and join the team", the more than 200 ashigaru immediately jogged and gathered into a small phalanx. Then they quickly formed five four-column horizontal lines and began to jog training. After the training, the two hundred ashigaru also stood motionless in front of Yu Qiuping. It wasn't until Yu Qiuping shouted out to disband, and everyone clapped their hands in unison, that they dispersed.

"What do you think?" Yu Qiuping asked Imagawa Yoshimoto. He himself did not know how difficult it was for the ancient army that lacked systematic training to achieve this system. He thought it was a common thing. However, unlike the military blind rain Akihei, the battle-hardened Imagawa Yoshimoto understood what it meant to be on the battlefield with such strict discipline, such a quick and neat formation change, and such an arm-and-finger command.

"Do you want to hear the truth, Yuqiu," Imagawa Yoshimoto looked at Yuqiuping, "Just looking at the queue change just now, I thought I was encountering Judge Kuro's flag book." ”

"Not long ago, this team was still unorganized." Imagawa Yoshimoto seems to be getting more and more unable to see through Akihei's potential, "Tell me how you managed to do it?" ”
