Coming to the canteen, the children, no, they should be called non-commissioned officers, after all, Zhu Hongyi trained them on the scale of future army generals. The non-commissioned officers and cadets saw a row of large wooden barrels, one bucket was braised pork, which was bright red, one bucket was stewed soup with beef bones, one bucket was pointed white rice, and the last bucket was white flour steamed buns.

The non-commissioned officers and students' eyes were red when they saw such a meal. Not to mention escaping the famine and coming to Wuchang, such a meal cannot be eaten even when it is at home, and only a bite of meat can be eaten during the New Year.

This time, the person didn't dare to move, because the black-faced instructor Zhu Hongyi was in front of the vat.

At this time, Zhu Hongsan stepped forward and said: "In the future, I will shout three times before every meal, and now I will start to say: Thank you master for giving me clothes, thank you master for giving me food." The cadets shouted loudly three times. Then line up to eat. Zhu Hongsan saw that when the braised pork was distributed to everyone's plate, some people cried. Now I probably won't be able to leave if I drive them away.

Zhu Hongsan and Zhu Hongyi each took a plate and a bowl, and also received a piece of food, and sat at a separate table to eat. All the non-commissioned officers and students were dumbfounded, they didn't expect these two demon kings to eat the same meal as them. Zhu Hongsan saw that they didn't eat and scolded: "Look at what, eat, you will suffer later." ”

Zhu Hongsan is learning from the fine traditions of the People's Liberation Army, and he will never engage in specialization in the army, but what should he do if he still has to ensure the authority of the officers? In fact, the braised pork in the canteen is too ordinary, the pork is too fat, and the soy sauce is a little too much, which is really not as delicious as the old lady's cooking. But in order to control this army, Zhu Hongsan fought hard. I even ate a big bowl of braised pork, and I ended up a little nauseous.

At first, the non-commissioned officers were just pretending to be officers, but they didn't expect Zhu Hongsan to eat and live with them every day, and there was no regression in the meals when Zhu Hongsan was not in the farm after that. In addition to rice porridge and steamed buns and small pickles in the morning, there are meat, fish and chicken at noon and evening.

After eating, I still practiced military posture in the afternoon. The non-commissioned officers and cadets have not yet recovered their bodies, and they are not yet able to exercise with great physical strength. In the past few days, I have been standing in line and practicing military posture. Zhu Hongsan also used the past few days to build a few rows of greenhouses like the future generations. That is, one side is a single room, and one side is a large shop. The single room was the officer's room, and the soldier slept in the bunk.

In the past few days, Zhu Hongsan taught these non-commissioned officers what discipline is, and the towels and basins should be placed neatly. is that the pattern must be consistent, anyway, what the People's Liberation Army will do in the future, Zhu Hongsan will ask the non-commissioned officers and students to do it. Half a month later, when their bodies were almost recovered, they began to gradually increase their training intensity, from the first mile to the end of the ten kilometers of cross-country every day.

A month later, the cadets finally looked like an army, and their muscles began to bulge.

Standing on the playground, Zhu Hongsan asked Zhu Hongyi: "Big brother, how do you see their training?" ”

Zhu Hongyi said: "I was able to break them up a month ago, and now I will be the one who fails." ”

Zhu Hongsan nodded and said, "It's not enough, this is just the beginning." I'm going to train them to be a pack of wolves, not a bunch of rabbits or a bunch of dogs. ”

In the next step, Zhu Hongsan began to give an hour-long cultural class in the evening, mainly handing over the simplified Chinese characters to them in later generations. Why don't you teach traditional Chinese characters, Zhu Hongsan is afraid that traditional literati doctors will be disgusted. After all, in the eyes of traditional literati, what is the use of a martial artist who can write, just be able to cut people with a knife. If they want to be able to write, how can they listen to us?

Simplified Chinese characters are not so troublesome, but can make literati have a sense of superiority, I am different from your class. And simplified characters are still very confusing, you smart people can only say rare words, and our group of martial artists are stupid, we can only learn simplified words.

After learning the cultural class, it was an hour-long MLM brainwashing class, and Zhu Hongsan talked about how good it is to follow him, how much land he can get in the future, how many daughters-in-law he can marry, how many children he will have, and take everyone's vision of having money, land and wives in the future. And then say who gave these to you, it's me, only I can give it to you, and finally everyone shouted that they will always be loyal to the master and loyal to Zhu Hongsan.

This kind of course is very effective, after half a month, these non-commissioned officers and students saw a kind of worship and fanaticism in Zhu Hongsan's eyes, and even Zhu Hongyi looked at Zhu Hongsan after listening to the class for a few days, and there was a sense in his eyes that he could die for you at any time. Zhu Hongyi felt that now let these thirty and a half sons rush towards the army of a hundred people, they would not blink an eye, maybe they could still win. The power of the spirit is terrifying.

On the first day of October, this day was too important in the Later Ming Empire, because it was their Army Day. On the first day of October in the seventh year of Chongzhen, their great Emperor Shizu formally established the first modern army in Wuchang County, Huguang, the holy land of the Later Ming army.

Of course, these are all sycophant articles of shameless literati in later generations. In fact, the scene at that time was like this, Zhu Hongsan saw that the weather was cold, and the clothes that happened to be made in uniform also came. On the first day of October, the clothes were handed out, and the time was purely farting and slapping the heels—the idea was up.

However, this is the first time that the uniform costume has been changed, and it is true. The clothes this time were specially designed by Zhu Hongsan for a tailor, with a total of three sets of clothes inside and out, underwear, outerwear, coats, and shoes and hats. The sample is the style of the 65-style military uniform of the People's Liberation Army in later generations, and the overcoat is the style of the famous military coat.

Zhu Hongsan wanted to make the handsome military uniform of the German army in World War II, but there was no material. At this time, China is all short-staple cotton, there is no long-staple cotton at all, and the fabric cannot be spun straight, and the color is still off-white, because this color is cheap and ordinary.

Zhu Hongsan looked at the non-commissioned officers and students wearing gray and white military coats, how they looked like the Imperial Cooperative Army captured by the Eighth Route Army, wearing cloth shoes one by one, stamping their hands and feet in cold weather, and wearing hats crookedly. For the first time, Zhu Hongsan doubted whether he could win.

I was unhappy in my heart, but I couldn't show my face. Zhu Hongsan also made a pro-people move, went down to tidy up the clothes for this one, put on a hat for the other, and asked for warmth. Then Zhu Hongsan ordered the whole team, and seeing that everyone was full of enthusiasm, Zhu Hongsan said: "Who gave you clothes, who gave you food, who can make you live a good life?" The non-commissioned officers shouted vigorously: "It's the commander."

"Okay, are you willing to die for me?"

"Yes, we are willing to do everything for our masters."

It seems that my brainwashing for more than a month has taken effect. Zhu Hongsan continued: "From today onwards, each person will receive one or two taels of silver a month. If you have a family, you can give it to your family, and if you don't have a family, you can put it in my place, and when you grow up, you will marry a daughter-in-law and give it to you. The audience laughed.

Zhu Hongsan continued: "In the afternoon, you can stay in the barracks or go to the county town for a walk, but be careful not to cause trouble and fight, and come back before dinner." ”

This is what everyone wants to hear, and the non-commissioned officers and cadets chant long live.

Zhu Hongsan watched them disperse, some went home to give the money to their parents, and some found a few good ones to go to the county town to play, but most of them were still in the barracks, because they didn't know where to go, and their families had already died on the way to escape the famine.

Zhu Hongsan said to Zhu Hongyi: "Big brother, don't you go home and take a look?" ”

Zhu Hongyi said: "If I don't go back, I'm afraid that my father will be on fire." ”

Zhu Hongsan nodded, he was going to Zhao Tieniu to study the matter of casting the hand * grenade shell.

Now Tie Niu's authority in Zhuangzi is getting heavier, and he is also under Zhu Hongsan, just like Ma Youfu and Lao Liu Tou. Now Zhuangzi has more people, there are more than 30 people on the side of the iron-making furnace, more than 40 people on the iron bull, and more than 120 people counting non-commissioned officers and students.

Zhu Hongsan found Tie Niu in the blacksmith shop, and he was playing two new horizontal knives for Zhu Hongyi. Zhu Hongyi said that the two standard horizontal knives were too light in the past, and there was a feeling that they were about to break when they waved with both hands, so they asked Tie Niu to make two longer and thicker knives. Zhu Hongsan looked at this feeding horizontal knife, and saw that the size was about the same as the chopping * saber, the blade was one meter long, the handle was forty centimeters long, and the blade was four fingers wide. At first glance, it is a peerless murder weapon.

Tie Niu saw Zhu Hongsan and said, "Look for me." ”

Zhu Hongsan nodded and said, "Yes, I will study the matter of the gunpowder jar with you." ”

Tie Niu said, "Didn't you say stop? ”

"I came up with a new way to make it quickly."

Tie Niu asked with interest, "What method?" Tie Niu is excited about all new technologies, and the new technologies he has learned in Zhu Hongsan's hands in the past few years have made him the title of the first blacksmith in Wuchang Mansion.

Zhu Hongsan nodded and said, "Casting." ”

"Casting? No, the walls are too thick, and they are all sand holes. ”

"Instead of using sand fan, we use steel fan, and then pour in molten pig iron."

Tie Niu thought for a while: "Gangfan, this is a new method, I will try it when I have time." ”

Zhu Hongsan said: "You start after you get the knife for Zhu Hongyi, this time you don't have to worry about the problem of air tightness, you use the strength according to the drawings I gave you, don't make it like a wine jug like last time." ”

Tie Niu smiled: "Isn't there no way last time, you still have to be thin, and you can't leak, so you can only use a small hammer to reach in and knock it little by little." This time you can rest assured, you will definitely be satisfied. After speaking, he went and went with Zhu Hongyi's big knife.

Zhu Hongsan saw that there was nothing wrong, returned to his room, and prepared to sort out the syllabus that would start tomorrow. Tomorrow we will be ready to equip the non-commissioned officers with weapons, first with spears. Zhu Hongsan prepared to use the Spanish pikes in the early stage, after all, he fought in the pass, and there were not so many cavalry. After the later industry rose up, it was prepared to use large-scale smoothbore guns and field artillery. This is simple and can be produced with the current steel and gunpowder.

Zhu Hongsan was thinking about it, when Zhu Hongyi came in and said, "Something happened, you go out and have a look." ”

Zhu Hongsan hurriedly said: "What's the matter?" ”

Zhu Hongyi said: "Two non-commissioned officers and students were injured? ”

, there are still people in Wuchang County who dare to provoke me. Zhu Hongsan was angry and walked out quickly.
