By copying the mansions of Ma Han, the former deputy envoy of the guard, Hao Jialin, the former commander of the army, and Yuwen Changhao, the former captain of the first battalion, a total of silver, gold, silver, jewelry, and other valuable items were copied, with a total value of 42,360 yuan, and after filling the deficit of 8,825 yuan in the defense and capture mansion, there were still more than 34,000 yuan, and these extra money were obtained by Hao Jialin, Ma Han, Yuwen Changhao and others by reselling ordnance materials and exploiting the surrounding people.

After understanding some of the situation, Zhao Ziliang instructed Zheng San to find those victims and compensate them for some of their losses, the people originally thought that they would definitely not come back after being stripped away by Ma Han and others, but they didn't expect that after Zhao Ziliang took office, Ma Han and others were unlucky, and they also compensated for their losses one by one, which is a great kindness to them as ordinary people, and every household is kind to Zhao Ziliang.

After compensating the people, the total value of the money obtained from the confiscation was still 26,000 yuan, and Zhao Ziliang instructed Zheng San to find some ways to do business, invest all the money, and stay in the treasury to only give birth to insects, but not to give birth.

After dealing with these trivial matters, Zhao Ziliang quickly shifted his attention to the army's training. The garrison of the transfer city is not a new soldier, basically a year of veterans, although the drill has been abandoned for a long time, but the foundation is still there, after the eradication of Ma Han, Hao Jialin and Yuwen Changhao and a group of people, Zhao Ziliang's main energy is on the training and military discipline of the soldiers.

The art of war in the past dynasties basically only pays attention to strategy, and does not pay attention to training, which is a problem of the Tang army that Zhao Ziliang has discovered since the crossing, and if the art of war only pays attention to strategy and does not pay attention to training, then the army is very dependent on excellent generals, but if you pay attention to training, the army's requirements for generals are much lower, even if you only have the resources of the Chinese generals, you can effectively command a well-trained army.

Even the Tang Army, which has strong combat effectiveness, can not be compared with the army of the first era in terms of training, and there is still a big gap between the quality of individual soldiers and coordinated operations compared with the first era, and the generals often only focus on arranging the troops, and the formation drills are very familiar, but they do not pay attention to the discipline of the army, the soldiers and the soldiers, the coordination and cooperation between the various arms, and the division of labor between the arms, or they simply do not realize how important these aspects are to the combat effectiveness of an army!

On this day, Zhao Ziliang ordered the garrison to be pulled outside the city to the open space by the river to conduct field drills.

The army of more than 1,200 people lined up in four large squares, standing neatly by the river without moving, it had been an hour, Zhao Ziliang and other generals stood on the temporary high platform one by one, letting the snowflakes fall on their bodies, and more than a dozen soldiers with slightly poor physique fainted one after another, but they were quickly carried away and placed in a nearby tent to warm up.

In Zhao Ziliang's view, the garrison of the city has been abandoned for a long time, but the combat effectiveness is still there, and the key now is to first rectify military discipline and cultivate the self-discipline of non-commissioned officers and generals, so he arranges for the army to conduct half-day standing posture and queue training every day, and at the same time strictly stipulates and enforces all the rules and regulations in the barracks, no one can violate it, once someone violates, no matter who it is, they will be punished in accordance with the regulations, even if he is the guard.

After more than ten days like this, the appearance of the army has undergone a fundamental change, and the soldiers will be punished for violating military regulations when they see Zhao Ziliang, the guard and capturing envoy, and no one dares to resist military regulations and military law.

After standing for another half an hour, more and more people fainted, and there were more than 100 people in the front and back, Li Wentong couldn't help but step forward and persuade: "General, it's almost, right?" If you stand any longer, I'm afraid that the soldiers won't be able to bear it! ”

Zhao Ziliang said expressionlessly: "How long has it been?" ”

Li Wentong hurriedly said: "An hour and a half!" ”

Zhao Ziliang observed the distance between the army phalanx and the surface of the Diao River, which was about two hundred meters, and the river was flowing slowly at this time, but the water temperature was definitely very low.

He shouted to the army: "All the army obey the order, all turn to the left!" ”

Finally hearing the order to be able to move, all the more than 1,200 soldiers breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, most of them were almost unable to hold on, their whole bodies were cold, stiff, numb, their bodies were not their own, and the feeling was too painful.

Zhao Ziliang instructed Wang Can, who was standing next to him: "You take some people to the river to guard, and if you see anyone who is stopped or hesitant later, arrest them immediately!" ”

"No!" Wang Can agreed and took the order.

Only then did Zhao Ziliang shout at the large phalanx of more than 1,000 people in the audience: "The third battalion listens to the order and marches forward in unison-"

"Boom, boom, boom・・・・・・" The sound of neat footsteps shook the earth.

Zhao Ziliang, who came from later generations, knew that the discipline of an army, the tacit understanding between soldiers and soldiers, and the degree of cooperation were extremely important, so whether he was in Tuoyun Fort or came to the city of change, the first thing in the training of the army was the strict requirements of military posture and military appearance and the drill of the queue. Ancient people are not necessarily stupider than modern people, they just haven't opened their minds and haven't broadened their horizons. As long as they are trained in these aspects for a longer period of time, the queue drill is not necessarily worse than that of the later armies.

Captain Li Siye of the 3rd Battalion walked on the left side of the line, and he was also in line with the pace of the non-commissioned officers, as did the other two lieutenants and officers.

Li Siye was still very satisfied with his third battalion in terms of military posture, military appearance, and queue drills, and the rows of non-commissioned officers moved neatly and uniformly when they advanced, and the queue in the march was not chaotic at all, and the spirit of the team was full of spirit and momentum, but the team was getting closer and closer to the river, which made him have a bad premonition in his heart.

The first row of soldiers was only ten meters away from the flowing river, and Zhao Ziliang still did not order the team to stop, and the soldiers in the first few rows all changed their faces at this time, you must know that today's temperature is extremely low, and the river must be extremely cold.

Just when Li Siye and the others were thinking wildly, the first row of soldiers finally walked to the river, a few soldiers hesitated, stopped, and Wang Can, who had already been waiting by the river with his manpower, immediately led people to rush up and pull out all the soldiers who had stopped, but after such a move, the entire third battalion had to stop advancing.

Wang Can took some people to escort the culprits who had stopped moving forward and caused the entire team to stop, and reported to Zhao Ziliang: "General, it was these people who stopped when they reached the river, causing all the soldiers of the third battalion to stop advancing!" ”

Zhao Ziliang looked at these soldiers with a cold face and asked, "Has General Ben ever ordered to stop advancing?" ”

The soldiers looked at each other with fear on their faces, and one of them said, "No! ”

Zhao Ziliang said sharply: "Why did you hesitate and stop? Do you know that if you are on the battlefield, there is an enemy army attacking from the back, and there is a river blocking the road in front of you, because you will stop and the whole army will be blocked by the water's edge, which will cause the whole army to be annihilated? ”

The soldiers trembled with fright, and no one dared to say anything more.

Zhao Ziliang shouted again: "Where are the captain of the third battalion, Li Siye, and the lieutenant Huo Kan? ”

When Li Siye and Liang Qi heard the voice, they immediately ran over from the river and bowed down to the audience: "General, your subordinates are here!" ”

Zhao Ziliang pointed to the soldiers in the audience and said: "A few of them stopped without an order, affecting the entire third battalion, and the chief officer and captain Li Siye were not strict in discipline, so it is difficult to escape the blame!" Other soldiers of the third battalion will also be implicated! Someone came, dragged Li Siye and these soldiers down, each of them was beaten with thirty military sticks, and the rest of the third battalion ran three laps around the city as a punishment, and Huo Kan, the deputy lieutenant of the third battalion, led the team to execute! If any one of them cheats, the punishment shall be doubled."

"No!"

Several benches were placed in front of the army, Li Siye and the soldiers were pressed on the bench, and the wooden stick with thick arms hit the buttocks, Li Siye was okay, he was strong, but he made a muffled snort, and several other soldiers were beaten and screamed, crying dad and mother, and in a blink of an eye, everyone's buttocks were beaten to the skin.
