In the afternoon, I have to find an insurance company to settle a claim for my son, and I will change two shifts today! Tomorrow! Tomorrow, I will ensure that the three watches will repay the love and support of the brothers! Thank you to all the brothers who have given me tips and red votes during this time! ）

More than 200 people in the open space outside Fanjiabao were in full swing in groups, and the fact that their old camp was copied by the Li family greatly stimulated everyone here, even those soldiers, after knowing about it, were also very hard to follow their captain to practice.

No one wants to be like those people in the old camp, who have no power to resist and can only be slaughtered.

The old brothers held their breath in their hearts, and during the drill, they ruthlessly manipulated the new guys, and there were loud rebukes everywhere and the screams caused by the sticks falling on the flesh, and the new guys were packed up with bitterness.

Xiao Tianjian also held his breath, he now knew that his strength was actually insignificant in this world, although he now had more than 200 subordinates, but not to mention rampant in the world, even if it was only in the area of Fengxiang Mansion and Huangyang, he was only a small force, he was like a spark that had just burst out, and he could be easily crushed at any time.

Two days ago, Shi Ran's subordinates brought back a piece of news, saying that a large number of officers and soldiers have begun to appear in the area of Fengxiang Mansion recently, all of which are heading to the east, Xiao Tianjian still knows a little about history, it is now the seventh year of Chongzhen, and the biggest thing in history this year should be the battle of the righteous army being surrounded by the carriage gorge, he can't remember the specific time, but from the current Chen Qiyu commanding the soldiers and horses of the five provinces, and constantly increasing troops towards the junction of Henan and Shaanxi, it can be analyzed that the righteous army may soon return to Shaanxi. Then I'm afraid the next trouble in the carriage gorge is not far away!

He knew very well that as long as the righteous army got out of the carriage gorge, he would immediately sweep through the territory of Shaanxi, with his current strength, it was not enough to toss any waves in this torrent, if he did not have a useful force, then he would not be able to gain a foothold in this chaos, should he let him be cannon fodder for Gao Yingxiang? Xiao Tianjian really didn't think about this kind of thing!

Therefore, he must create a force of his own in the shortest possible time, and make it available to himself at all times, which is no longer just a matter of seeking revenge from the surname Li.

Shi Ran has been taking people out these days, bringing all kinds of news from outside back to Fanjiabao here, judging from all kinds of signs, the battle of the officers and soldiers around the carriage gorge is probably a matter of immediacy, Fengxiang here is not far from the carriage gorge, once the righteous army gets out of trouble, it is bound to immediately sweep all over Fengxiang.

Therefore, Xiao Tianjian's sense of urgency was much stronger, and he felt that there was not much time left for him, and he wanted to speed up the pace to strengthen his strength.

So in the past few days, he has devoted almost all his energy to military training, and at the same time told Shi Ran to collect as many young people as possible outside to bring them back here and join them.

Fan Jiabao is now hoarding enough food for him, this is the capital for him to expand his strength, the most important thing in these years is the people who eat food, he used to have no conditions, he could only make a small fuss first, and now he finally laid down a rich man's Zhuangzi, he has the strength to do this kind of thing, so he must expand his strength as soon as possible.

In order to make these new recruits reach the usable level as soon as possible, he must use the method of assembly line operation to forcibly transform this rabble into a useful army.

But he also knew that there would be a backlash under heavy pressure, and excessive training of these people might cause them to resent or even defect, so after thinking about it, he made a big deal and took out the pigs and sheep obtained by Fan Jiabao without hesitation, killing pigs and sheep every day, and letting these guys let go of their stomachs and eat.

For these people who rarely eat a bite of meat all year round, such a luxurious meal undoubtedly has a huge attraction for them, just for a bite of meat, they may have killed people before, and now Xiao Tianjian has taken out such a good meal to provide them with a full meal, so that it really offsets a lot of resistance caused by high-intensity exercises.

Xiao Tianjian's approach made the old brothers under him feel a little distressed, they are all people who are used to living a hard life, and they are all a little like groundhogs subconsciously, instinctively want to reserve more things for future use, seeing that Xiao Tianjian is so stingy, every day there is meat for these newcomers to let go of eating, many people feel that it is too wasteful, and they have privately persuaded Xiao Tianjian to save some and use it better.

But Xiao Tianjian vetoed their proposal with a wave of his hand: "Now is not the time to pity these meats, now that we are training these guys with such high intensity, if we don't come up with some good food for them to eat, who will be so upright for you to beat casually?" Is this called Enwei and Grace?

As the saying goes, if you can't let the children trap the wolf, if you want to let these people become an army as soon as possible, we can't pity this little thing! After these guys practice, we can go to fight the rich man's Zhuangzi again, are you afraid that you won't have anything to eat in the future? ”

Everyone thought about it, and this is really the case, they now open their eyes every day and start to train these novices vigorously, the training intensity is so great that even the old brothers among them are a little smacked, and feel a little unbearable, not to mention this group of novices who have not been restrained, every day this military stick does not know how much to interrupt, and they use corporal punishment to teach them a lesson, everyone is a meat chief, and they will be patient to be beaten by them like this!

In another place, according to Yan Chongxi's words, even the very elite border army is a drill every five days, if they follow their current training method, they would have already mutined those who were soldiers, maybe they will be in a hurry, these guys really dare to copy the guys and slaughter them!

What's more, the Hunan army of Zeng Guofan, the Qing army in later generations, can also be called the elite of the elite of the Qing army, but Xiao Tianjian knows that Zeng Guofan's soldiers and horses under his command are only trained every 38 days, and they are also drilled every five days.

So Xiao Tianjian is so generous and delicious for these guys to eat, in fact, he is also helping them, which makes them less troublesome when training recruits, many people are because the food here is so good, reluctant to leave, so they are so stiff and trained by them, once the food can't attract these guys, maybe they will run out overnight.

Even so, some of their subordinates still couldn't withstand such a high-load exercise, couldn't endure this hardship, and escaped one after another, so after Xiao Tianjian said that, no one would give their opinions in private.

But Xiao Tianjian knows very well that such a good food alone is not enough to make these people follow him with an iron heart, and the reason why GCD can win the world in later generations is actually to a large extent because of the good ideological work, so that the officers and soldiers can effectively unite and follow GCD with an iron heart, so that they can win the world.

And when he was preaching to his subordinates during this time, he had already begun to imperceptibly instill some ideas into them, but Xiao Tianjian also knew that it was not advisable to copy the experience of later generations, after all, the current era is still very different from that of later generations, and the king came down a few years ago to instill in the people the idea of loyalty, and told these people that he Xiao Tianjian would take them to rebel against the Ming Dynasty in the future, and it is estimated that he can scare away half of the people on the spot.

Therefore, this ideological work must be carried out, but we must not be too anxious, we can only take our time step by step, and the bigger problem is that only Xiao Tianjian himself knows these truths, and he seriously lacks manpower who can play the role of political commissar, let alone come up with a set of systematic theories to support his political and ideological work.

What's more, the most critical thing for him now is to speed up the training of the actual combat ability of these newcomers, and he doesn't have much spare time to do ideological work for these people.

So after thinking about it for a while, he decided to start this matter from the time he ate every day, this kind of thing is better to leave to the old guy Jin Fuzi to do, and he doesn't need to explain it personally, Jin Fuzi, the old guy, consciously takes on the matter of cooking and providing food for these guys every day, and also takes some guys to personally cook for these guys every day, and his mouth is even more every day to let these people feel that they can eat such a good meal now, because of what, it's not because they are in charge of Xiao Tianjian's benevolence, Can they eat such good food in this chaotic year?

Xiao Tianjian privately asked Master Jin to explain quietly, so Master Jin started to do this more carefully, not only to preach to everyone when he was cooking every day, but also to preach to everyone who was under his charge every day, so that everyone would remember who gave them this meal as soon as they ate, Xiao Tianjian believed that subtly, these newcomers would be loyal to him sooner or later.

In addition, after dark, these people will still have some free time before going to bed, Xiao Tianjian decided to make use of this free time, not to let these guys let themselves go freely, and to get together casually, but simply take advantage of the time to eat, gather these subordinates, and each of them talk about their previous experiences, to put it bluntly, it is to remember the bittersweet and sweet, let them know that although they are practicing very hard now, compared to their previous days of hunger and fullness, it is already heaven.

Xiao Tianjian himself is also more strict with himself, since the first day of the Fan family fort, he rested alone in the Fan family mansion for a night, and then these days, he simply moved out of the mansion, and lived with this group of subordinates, every day after dinner, he also personally joined in such a bittersweet discussion, although he never mentioned his life before he crossed into this world, but often instilled some fresh ideas into his subordinates.

"Brothers, think about it, those who are in office and the rich are human beings, and we are human beings, so why should we be born poor and live such a miserable life?

It's not because of anything else, it's because this court official is so damn unreasonable, and it doesn't care about the life and death of our poor people! You also think about it, what did the government do in this year of great disaster? Can you give us food for us? No! Not only did we not provide relief to the victims, but we also continued to increase all kinds of new salaries, otherwise, how could we be forced to this point?

Therefore, if we want to live in this world, we can't expect the government to pity us, let alone these wealthy gentry and wealthy people! Except for us to fight a way to live, don't think about anything! ……”

Xiao Tianjian sat cross-legged next to the bonfire and said loudly to the subordinates sitting around him.
