A sudden mountain rain at night made all the military training plans for the next day come to naught. In the early morning, when Zhu Pingjin was about to inspect the barracks, Tiangong still didn't give face, and the light rain was still sparse and non-stop.

Standing at the gate of the small courtyard, Zhu Pingjin looked into the distance. The rain fills all the concave and convex surfaces in the drying field, and becomes a white and bright flat mirror. A creek that had almost dried up at the bottom of the mountain was rejuvenated. Around the boulders of the stream, the splashes of water are faintly stirring and jumping. The most amazing thing is that at the halfway point of Bifeng Mountain opposite, a waterfall suddenly hangs out. The white water fell into the verdant underneath the mountain, and then crashed into the protruding rocks, and a huge rumbling sound echoed through the mountain. Zhu Pingjin has the heart to practice in the summer and the frost and snow in the winter, but thinking that the soldiers have a set of cotton clothes and pants at present, and when they get wet, they can only run naked, so he can only shake his head.

Combat power generation is also at the cost of resource consumption. The original training plan must be adjusted.

Although the mountain road from the small courtyard to the barracks is not far, it is wet and slippery after being fully soaked by rainwater. Cao Sanbao, Cao Santai, and Wang Sizhong held umbrellas and led Zhu Pingjin in the middle. Relying on dragging small trees and even weeds on the side of the road, stumbling all the way, covered in mud and water, several people finally rushed into the barracks.

Cao Sanbao and Wang Sizhong hurriedly went to the kitchen to find a dry handkerchief to wipe Zhu Pingjian's water, leaving their master to rub the mud on the stone steps at the entrance of the barracks. This mountain road is so difficult to walk after the rain, Cao Santai didn't expect it. Remembering that he had reported to Zhu Pingjin that he had lived here, Cao Santai blushed a little. In fact, he had only lived in this house for a few days in total, and he had never encountered rain. He is in various wangzhuang in Mengding Mountain, which is equivalent to a soil emperor. The palace is far away, and the place is unwilling to take care of it, so of course he is willing to stay in the comfortable old nest in Mengyang Town. This Bifeng Gorge is at the end of Wangzhuang, the mountain is high and the road is dangerous, why did he come to endure hardships when he had nothing to do?

Cao Santai was secretly glad that Zhu Pingjin didn't ask about it, Zhu Pingjin dusted off the rain on his body, and said to him: "Manager Cao, in the future, the playground, houses and mountain roads in Bifeng Gorge will be expanded and renovated, and there will be a shooting range." You expand on the scale of three thousand. ”

Cao Santai's mouth was a little bitter. How big is 3,000? The current house of 800 people may be nervous, and it is not enough to expand the house of more than 2,000 people, and occupy all the drying grounds, plus the new playground and shooting range, how much manpower and silver will it cost? This is also the place where the prince places special emphasis on secrecy, where do the laborers and craftsmen come in? Without the decree of the palace, so much silver was spent, how could the princess repay the account?

Cao Santai immediately began to think about how to deal with the request of the prince. Perhaps seeing Cao Santai's concerns, Zhu Pingjin smiled and said to Cao Santai: "You see, this canyon is very wide, and it is more than enough to accommodate three or five thousand people. Even if it is not used for military training in the future, other uses are very large. Manager Cao, you just have to rest assured to plan and prepare, and the affairs in the house have their own sons in this world to report to their fathers, princesses, and princesses. It's been out for a few days, and after ten days at most, the son will leave here. Soon, a new wave of displaced people will arrive. Manager Cao, you are busy with things! ”

"Hard work, that's the duty of a slave! It's just that the craftsmen and coolies who repair the flat land and the silver ...... to eat? Cao Santai cautiously reminded Zhu Pingjin.

Zhu Pingjin pointed to Song Zhenzong and the others who hurriedly came to greet him in the courtyard: "Aren't they coolies?" As for the craftsmen, this Shizi will buy a few by the way. Eat with money, and bring it together when the time comes! ”

The rain that God has brought down has turned all of today's training subjects into indoor learning. Zhu Pingjin first summoned his cadres and explained several key points of study, which were nothing more than three loyalties, three smears and the like, and then announced that Shu Guoping was the first to give a lecture, followed by He Youyi, and finally Sun Hong.

Sun Hong was a little strange to Zhu Pingjin for letting him play. After arriving last night, he heard that Zhu Pingjin had appointed Shu Guoping and He Youyi as the chief and deputy battalion supervisors, and also served as company commanders respectively, directly leading the troops, and even Cao Santai, a eunuch from the palace, had become some deputy battalion supervisor and baggage officer. Sun Hong thought at that time whether Zhu Pingjin would also arrange some position for himself in the army. But when Wang Daniu and the others who came with him all received a set of gray cotton clothes and pants, but he didn't have them, he immediately understood that Zhu Pingjin had no intention of putting him in the army for the time being. Therefore, Zhu Pingjin asked him to give a lecture to the soldiers, and he calmly asked Zhu Pingjian: "The son of the world has a life, and the students dare not disobey." I wonder what Shizi asked the students to tell the soldiers? ”

Zhu Pingjin replied briefly: "Teach them to read." ”

"It turned out to be the thing that was learned."

This was heard by Song Zhenzong. He shouted: "Those Qiu Ba are desperate in battle, what do you recognize?" ”

Shizi's cold gaze swept over, and Song Zhenzong immediately fell silent.

Zhu Pingjin regained his usual smile on his face, nodded to Sun Hong and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Sun." I want to see that these soldiers can learn a few words every day under the guidance of Mr. Sun, a famous teacher. ”

Sun Hong said with a smile: "Students don't dare to guarantee the ticket with the prince. However, it should be no problem for students to teach these soldiers, and they should have no problem knowing ten words a day, but it is difficult to be able to write ten words. ”

Zhu Pingjin also smiled: "Learn to climb first and then learn to walk, first learn to recognize and then learn to write!" This son will stay here for ten days. When the son of this world leaves, how about being qualified to know 100 words per capita and be able to write 30 words? ”

The prince made a move, and everyone laughed and watched how Sun Hong took it.

Sun Hong didn't smile, just bowed to Zhu Pingjin, and asked very seriously: "Students teach Mengxue, if those soldiers are slack, can the prince give students the right to enforce military law?" ”

Sun Hong wants to emulate the story of Sun Tzu's training of female soldiers. IN THIS STORY, SUN WU WON THE KING'S APPRECIATION, WU WANG HELV GAINED THE REPUTATION OF A VIRTUOUS KING, AND UNLUCKY WERE THE TWO BEAUTIES WHO WERE NOT IN THE STATE FOR A LONG TIME. Sun Hong originally thought that the prince was eloquent and strategic, so he must have nodded yes to this, but the prince immediately shook his head: "Implementing military law is the responsibility of supervising the army at all levels. Mr. does not have a military position, and it is inappropriate for Mr. to enforce military law! ”

As he spoke, Zhu Pingjin turned his head to Shu Guoping and He Youyi: "Spread the decree of the prince: From now on, all soldiers will study for an hour every night, of which they will recognize and write for at least half an hour!" When Mr. Sun gave a lecture, all the soldiers should obey the instructions, and if they slackened, let Mr. Sun let them go. The two of you, as the overseers of the army, are responsible for the specific implementation! ”

Shu Guoping and He Youyi stood up to receive the order.

Zhu Pingjin pressed his hand to let them sit down, and then ordered: "There are also those who are less literate among the officers, and the attendance list is added to the special agent platoon commander Wang Daniu!" ”

Get what you want. Sun Hong bowed his hand to the prince very chicly: "The student will be as the prince wishes!" ”

After discussing the next step of the army training plan with the Song Dynasty, Zhu Pingjin also took them to listen to the lectures with the soldiers.

Lectures are ongoing.

Shu Guoping explained the purpose of protecting the caravan and the three major military disciplines. He chose the story of the Yue family army to illustrate the purpose of protecting the caravan and the relationship between military discipline and "shaking the mountain and shaking the Yue family's army". He stressed to the soldiers that the Yue family army was a model for the caravan. Only when everyone knows why they are fighting, can everyone fight bravely; Only by strictly enforcing the iron military discipline can we not be surprised by the enemy, can we not be defeated in battle, can we win the support of the people, and can more people enthusiastically join the caravan.

Compared with Shu Guoping's seriousness, He Youyi's storytelling style is more popular with soldiers. He chose a story about the early general of the dynasty, Kaiping Wang, Chang Yuchun, Chang Chang Lance, Fei Ge Deng, Quarrying. Among the generals in the early Ming Dynasty, if Xu Da is handsome, then Chang Yuchun is the first general. It's a pity that Chang Yuchun died young and died on the way back to Beijing for Vayuan, not enjoying a day of Qingfu, leaving only a false title of King Kaiping. But when someone else died, his story remained. His bravery and fearlessness have been miraculous by folklore, and it is simply the early Ming Dynasty romance version of Changshan Zhao Zilong. He Youyi is very good at telling stories, and for these soldiers from a remote, poor and bitter background, Chang Yuchun's heroism has an irresistible attraction. They all listened attentively, and from time to time they would burst out with a "Yes!" "Hero! Praise like that.

Sun Hongkai talked about the Mongolian textbook "Hundred Family Names" written in the Song Dynasty. Sun Hong's lecture was very innovative. He didn't have a blackboard or a book, so he wrote a word on a piece of paper, and then he called the soldier with the surname to come forward and hold it up, and he was responsible for teaching all the soldiers to read and write. Finally, the piece of paper with his surname written on it was taken away by the soldier with his surname. Among the three hundred and fifty-one soldiers, there are dozens of surnames. In this way, every soldier is not only someone else's teacher, but also someone else's student, so the teaching is completely interactive, and Sun Hong is still relaxed. When everyone can recognize their own surnames and the surnames of their comrades-in-arms, won't the 100 literacy targets set by Zhu Pingjin be completed quickly?

Zhu Pingjin said in his heart, this Sun Hong is a bit of a ghost!
