Chapter 36 Officers and Soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty
The next day, Li Zhe took Hu Shi to the Japanese army again, yesterday he had already received a military uniform and other things with a military order, and today he put it on, but this time he entered the barracks as a real Great Song officer.
Holding the first regiment, two battalions and five capitals of the Japanese army's left wing, Li Zhe stood here, looking at the nearly 100 tall and sturdy men on the playground, this is Li Zhe's subordinates for a period of time in the future, just talking about the basic physical fitness, these Song Dynasty soldiers in front of him look not bad, each of them is more than 1.7 meters tall, and their average weight can exceed 60 kilograms.
Such an average physical and mental quality is definitely second to none in this era, and compared to the Song soldiers, the health of other ethnic groups in this era is much worse. However, this is directly proportional to the level of affluence and education of the entire nation. In this era, the entire social life of the Song people has been ahead of the curve for hundreds of years, which is incomparable to the peoples of other parts of the world.
That's it, these are his subordinates for a while to come? After Li Zhe found out about Lu Xuan yesterday, he had thought that Lu Xuan would secretly wear small shoes for him today, after all, Lu Xuan is now the boss of his top boss, but he didn't expect that today, these soldiers he assigned are not bad?
Li Zhe recalled the military training experience in his memory of another life and the unpopular knowledge he picked up on the forum, and the men in front of him were the test objects of these things in his memory.
The men also looked at the officer in front of them one by one, whispering underneath.
Li Zhe is now their official head.
Li Zhe asked Ma Zhong, the deputy head next to him, this is a Shen Yi man who looks like he is thirty or forty years old, he doesn't talk much, but he looks capable, and at first glance, he has come up step by step from a small soldier, and this guy is Li Zhe's deputy for a period of time in the future.
"Ma Dutou, what are the combat skills that these soldiers have trained and mastered in peacetime now?"
What are they, aren't they the ones you usually train?
"Back to Yu Hou, it is generally a fight, a queue, and a weapon fire formation. I usually have to work hard or something. ”
Scold! It's a lot of practice.
"Then Ma Dutou, can you take the brothers below to practice first, let me see."
"This?"
"How."
Deputy Ma looked at Tu Tu Tu Tu, and he said:
"Hui Yuhou, I'm afraid I can't practice today."
"Why?" Li Zhe's heart sank.
"This morning, the battalion commander dispatched the soldiers to exercise, and the soldiers marched for five kilometers, and we had just come back when you came, and many soldiers had not eaten yet."
What the? Li Zhe was furious.
Today is obviously his first day of entering the barracks, and the battalion commander just transferred his subordinates to exercise, how can this be reasonable, the five-kilometer cross-country in the early morning, Li Zhe did not hear it wrong! Could it be that this is the People's Liberation Army, which has traveled to the barracks of a certain People's Liberation Army in later generations?
Li Zhe took a closer look, and sure enough, he didn't notice it just now, he only paid attention to the soldiers' bodies, and didn't notice that these soldiers were sweating profusely on their faces, their faces were sluggish, and they looked like they were exerting excessive physical strength. I'm hungry, how can I participate in the drill like this?
The battalion commander is like this, is it the means they came up with to interfere with themselves, and while he is not there, they will first train his subordinates and abolish them, so that Li Zhe will not be able to train his troops? This method is inevitably too low!
"Deputy Head Ma, is it very common to have morning exercises like this in the army?"
"Where?" Deputy Ma said with annoyance, "There are morning exercises in the barracks, but they have never run such a long distance in the morning, and the soldiers can't stand such a long distance, Yu Hou, I won't tell you, the soldiers in front of me have not arrived, and a few have fallen behind on the road, unwell, and have not come to report." ”
Oh, is this reasonable, Li Zhe absolutely did not believe that the Song soldiers of this era could run five kilometers as often as the People's Liberation Army in later generations. People who have never seen the training in the military camp will never know the difficulty of a five-kilometer rapid march, and the soldiers in front of them can withstand such an ordeal and still be able to hold on, this physical fitness is already absolutely top in this era.
"Well, forget it, let them recuperate well and recover as soon as possible."
"Yes! Xie Yuhou. ”
Ma Deputy Du Du replied.
"Then, let's not drill now, let the soldiers go to eat first, rest after eating, and talk about it in the afternoon!"
"Yes. Yu Hou. ”
The first morning of Li Zhe's arrival in the barracks was deserted.
It wasn't until the afternoon that Li Zhe summoned the soldiers again, and this time after a morning of rest, the soldiers under these men finally returned to normal.
As soon as Li Zhe gave the order, Ma Zhong led the soldiers to practice the formation below. According to the regulations, the Song soldiers of one hundred people were divided into ten squads, each team had two captains and deputy captains, and during the exercise, each captain constantly greeted the actions of his soldiers.
Like walking in unison, changing formations in the march or something, these soldiers are much better than the students of military training in later generations, people walk in a variety of ways, stepping on the unique military drums and drums of this era to carry out various formation changes, what columns, phalanxes, hollow formations, formation crossing, change over and over, it is dazzling, and the people who bluffed Li Zhe, who only walked through the simplest college student phalanx in later generations, were stupid, and they only thought that they were back in the national college student queue championship in later generations.
The small phalanx of 100 people, cheered on by the sound of snare drums, forced out of the momentum of a strong army with a strong enemy.
Who said that the ancient soldiers did not pay attention to the queue walking, and who said that the queue of primary school students in later generations will beat the army of this era in a fancy way?
The ancient cold weapon war is more than the formation, the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty have always attached importance to the tradition of formation, especially the forbidden army, in this era, the formation is used as a weapon to defeat the enemy on the battlefield to practice, not just as a way to practice in later generations.
Therefore, every forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty is proficient in queue formation changes, five exercises a day, nearly ten hours a day of training, as a professional soldier, how can he not even master a simple queue, otherwise how can those literati in the history books directly command these professional soldiers to fight, the IQ of the ancients is not much worse than that of modern people, how can there be such a statement, there are always people who believe in that kind of nonsense.
What's more, now that the Song army has entered the era of modern firearms, the essence of early musket battles is queues, and only a suitable queue can ensure that the soldiers have enough output in the battle, so these Song soldiers are even better at training the changes in the firearm phalanx, Li Zhe wants to use the things learned in military training in later generations to train the Song soldiers in front of him.
Thinking about the fact that these soldiers in front of him can even do five kilometers of cross-country, this physique can definitely be regarded as elite soldiers.
It's all wild history that kills people!
