Originally, Xiao Xuan didn't have much confidence in boosting the morale of these old craftsmen who were different from the young people, and felt that these people were well-informed after all, and their values and three views had already been set. However, it still commits the mistake of copying some examples from modern society and even modern society.

From the Westernization Movement to the early period of New China, although such people in many units sometimes had a social status, even if they were not elites, they could also be called "workers' aristocrats" and "big brothers", and they were by no means comparable to ordinary low-tech sweatshop contractors. Under the artisan household system in Beijing, the treatment of these "in-system" craftsmen who did not even have autonomy was actually more similar in nature to hired peasants or even serfs than to some "big brother of workers". Although the seniority and seniority are higher, the officials in charge of management do not regard them as "ordinary serfs" and focus on exploiting most of the people who do not have too high skills. Three meals are fishy, paid on a daily basis or even piece-rated? Even like the military craftsmen who built slaves outside the Guan, how fast and good the work is also considered a military merit? That's something I've never thought about.

At the same time that the entire military craftsman auxiliary battalion has a new look, and after the progress and quality of workmanship have improved significantly, Xiao Xuan also plans to "look back". Because the first batch of officers and soldiers who served as the "teaching team" formed the army and the training time was too short, Xiao Xuan was very worried that these teenagers who had not completely eradicated the "social habit gene" would relax these days because they had a little power position in their hands.

When inspecting the camp during the lunch break, Xiao Xuan found that the clothes washed by several recruits did not seem to be the blue cloth barracks uniforms that seemed to be a little rudimentary that had just been issued, but the special white uniforms that only the first batch of officers and soldiers had. Although the white color is slightly dirty, you can tell that it is not fading and falling.

"Whose clothes are you washing?" Xiao Xuan asked when he saw this situation.

The teenagers were not too stupid, and they stammered a little when they heard Xiao Xuan's expectations. In the past few days, the prestige formed by the first batch of officers and soldiers has already made the vast majority of recruits form a kind of servile maintenance consciousness to their superiors, but when they think of the head of the head of the sect here but the emperor himself, he still does not dare to deceive and say: "This... These are the captain's? ”

"The captain of the squad?"

"Positive... Precisely... ”

"The second capital of the front left guard squadron is the fifth squad?" Xiao Xuan said after looking at the number written in simple handwriting on the temporary camp.

"Yes..."

Hearing such an answer, Xiao Xuan weighed it in his heart for a moment and didn't say anything for a while, but a team that investigated seven or eight squadrons in the battalion one after another, which made Xiao Xuan glad that maybe it was because the new army was formed too early, and this phenomenon has not become a common phenomenon for the time being.

After secretly investigating more than a dozen typical examples, a total of twelve squad leaders and two captains, Xiao Xuan ordered all the first batch of officers and soldiers to convene an impromptu meeting in the old battalion officers' tent. At the same time, I am also weighing how to deal with such things in my heart, according to the general principle of prevention and gradual gradual development in my heart: as long as it is a subjective problem, small mistakes should also be punished heavily. For example, let these people be expelled from the camp after being directly beaten with military sticks, and even set up a "punishment camp" for recruits to punish bad veteran officers, but if this happens, Xiao Xuan is very worried that a lot of strict management will be affected. In fact, many modern armies exist in contradictions and estrangements within the army, which is not terrible, but if the army becomes an army that is quasi-herding and lacks strict management, Xiao Xuan is very worried. In particular, the risk of armed conflict in the capital has not been resolved, and it seems that the position of the new emperor, who has solved the old power by unconventional means, is still not so consolidated.

In the end, he chose to face the dozen officers and soldiers who asked the soldiers to wash their clothes in front of hundreds of people and said: "You should not be from a rich family, the children of the poor should have been in charge of the family long ago, they are all in the countryside and are about to become married, and they can't even wash their clothes?" That's good, a dozen of you go to the auxiliary artisan camp to wash the clothes for the craftsmen. If there is a recurrence of the offense, let you go to the eliminated soldiers who were kicked out of the barracks not long ago to wash their clothes, and experience the taste of ordinary soldiers again... ”

Hearing such words, those officers and soldiers who had committed the crime were just about to cry and apologize, but they were stopped by Xiao Xuan when they were budding: "If you are acting softly in front of me now, I can only think that you are villains who bully the weak and are afraid of the hard to see the wind and rudder, then you go and accompany the children who were eliminated under your hands not long ago!" Such intimidation seemed more intimidating than harsh torture, and a dozen people soon fell silent.

After being silent for a long time, Xiao Xuan said solemnly in front of the first batch of more than 500 officers and soldiers: "Let you ask these recruits strictly, so that they can develop the habit and consciousness of discipline without the consciousness of soldiers and obedience, and fade away the freedom and casualness of a civilian in the capital. You have to demand these recruits like a stern master, or even a stern father. I have also given you the power of corporal punishment, and you also know about the incident in the five military camps not long ago, the changes in the Beijing division have not yet settled down, and in order to save the Ming Dynasty and even the world from internal and external troubles, it is likely that you will have to engage in fierce battles tonight or a month later. You're right to be strict with these recruits. However---, everything must be based on combat effectiveness and compare hearts with hearts. Do you know what impression a master or father makes in the minds of his apprentices or sons when he uses his apprentices or sons to make profits? Many of you are also from ordinary people's backgrounds, and it will be rewarding to recall your past carefully. If you no longer see yourself as a commander and combatant, but as a 'military master', then I can only let you understand the truth of comparing your heart with your heart, and accept the return of those eliminated recruits who have some old grudges... All right! All the veterans are gathered! I'll see if you still have the consciousness you had as a junior and ordinary officer and soldier a few days ago! ”

As Xiao Xuan expected, after being the head of several Japanese troops, there were indeed some people who seemed to be not very suitable for the life of a recruit who was forbidden by the order. Xiao Xuan did not immediately eliminate or severely punish these people, but still punished them according to the original rules, and punished them with sticks and corporal punishments. But in general, maybe it's not too long to be out of training, and there aren't too many people like that.
