Early in the morning on the first day of the Lunar New Year, after eating dumplings, Jia Min took Miaoyu, Ping'er, Jiao Li and others to Jiafu to pay New Year's greetings. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

In a short time, they arrived at Jiafu. The ancestors are in the Rongxi Hall, accepting kowtows from the younger generations and their subordinates. Inside and outside the house, it was bustling and lively.

Taking advantage of the New Year's greetings, Miaoyu told the ancestor that he was going to the distant relative's house in Yangzhou, and the ancestor was worried about Miaoyu's safety on the road at first. Ping'er said on the side that Jia Min was going to send two soldiers to escort her, and Jia Mu agreed.

When he came out of Jia's mother, he went to Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang, then Jia Amnesty, and then to the outside of Jia Jing's retreat in Dongfu. kowtowed outside the door, which is considered to be the completion of the ceremony.

stayed at Jia Zhen's place for a while, because Aunt Xue was also an elder, so she went to Aunt Xue to pay New Year's greetings.

Ping'er and Qingwen didn't want to go, so they made an excuse, saying that they wanted to go to Wang Xifeng to see the old master, and then they had to talk to the mandarin ducks, and Jia Min went with them.

When I arrived at Xue's house, Xue Pan went out to pay New Year's greetings, leaving Aunt Xue and Baochai at home, inside and out, and people kept coming to pay New Year's greetings, but they just said some kind words and came back.

Then the younger generations of the Jia family gathered together and went to the Wang family and the Shi family to kowtow to the New Year.

It wasn't until Shen Shi that he returned to Jiafu, stayed in the house that night to eat and drink, and when he arrived at Xu, he returned to Yeduju.

On the second day of the new year, the officers in each province returned to the barracks to pay New Year's greetings to Jia Min and the soldiers. In the evening, the officers and men ate and drank together.

On the third day of the junior high school, the Wang family treats guests, which is the rule of the past years. On the fourth day of the first month, the Jia family invited guests, and the east and west mansions of the Jia family and the Xue family made a banquet together to entertain the guests of the Wang family and the Shi family.

On the fifth day of the first month, the Shi family invited guests, and everyone from the Jia family, the Xue family and the Wang family all went to the Shi family for a banquet.

For this kind of social occasion, Jia Min was reluctant to participate. However, his identity is different now, he seems to be the pillar of the Jia family, and he is the most outstanding representative of the younger generation of the four major families. So I went with the flow.

On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, the officers of the five families and six prefectures returned to the camp en masse, and today all the officers and children of the prefectures went out to pay New Year's greetings to each family. On behalf of the government corps, I would like to express my gratitude to all families for their support.

Tomorrow on the seventh day of the new year, the holiday in the barracks will end, and all the officers will return to the barracks.

Thirty or so people, all dressed in new military uniforms, equipped with sabers and short swords, rode on white horses, all the way to the mansions.

first arrived at the Shi family, then the Feng family, the Wei family and the Chen family, and finally the Jia family. At the time of Deuteronomy, they dispersed.

Jia Min stayed in Jiafu and went to the East Flower Hall. Send someone to find Qin Keqing and Baochai. Discuss business matters with the two of you.

summarized last year's business, and talked about a lot of business things in detail, and told the two of them for a long time how to do business in the future.

said it in detail, so much so that Baochai and Qin Keqing felt that Jia Min was a little verbose. However, when I thought that Jia Min was leaving on the eighteenth day of the first month, I felt that it was normal for him to tell him like this.

On the seventh day of the first lunar month, Scholar Ji went home, Miaoyu also set off for Yangzhou, and Jiao Li selected two soldiers to escort Miaoyu forward.

Jiao/Li went with Miaoyu, saying that he was going to the city to do errands. Jia Min went to Liujiazhuang and met Fang Xiucai. That night, Fang Xiucai, Tong Xiucai and Cong Xiucai were together, and Jia Min had a drink.

Jia Min discussed this year's training with them, explained how to earn money in the future and sent him to Bukui, and returned to the barracks at the end of the year.

This year is the beginning of spring on the fourth day of the first lunar month, so from the fourth day of the first month, it is the Year of the Ox.

At the end of the eighth day of the first month of the year of Ding Chou, a meal had just been held in the barracks, and the herald suddenly issued an order, and all the officers above the squad leader immediately went to the council hall for a meeting.

The new year has begun, and it is about to be opened to Bukui, and there are some things to arrange, which is normal, so people quickly arrived.

When I entered the conference hall, I saw Wei Ruoyu, the assistant to Quartermaster Jiao Li, handing out pocket watches to everyone who came. Starting from the squad leader, one person has a share, and everyone has a share.

This batch of pocket watches was purchased by Jiao Li years ago, and each watch cost three taels of silver. I said I was going to send it down a long time ago, and I finally got it today.

After handing out the pocket watch, Jia Min, accompanied by Feng Ziying and Chen Yejun, came in. Everyone hurriedly sat down, and Jia Min began to speak.

"The pocket watch has been sent to you, and from now on, the timing of the government corps will be based on the time on the pocket watch, using the Western timekeeping method. In all military activities, the hour is no longer used. ”

"Military operations need to be as accurate as possible in time, and using Western timekeeping, we can accurately measure the time, which is very necessary for us to carry out operations in the future. It's 7:20 a.m., so please check the watch. ”

Even the officers above basically had pocket watches in the past, so everyone was no stranger to Western timekeeping methods, and they quickly got their watches right.

"We were originally scheduled to leave for Bukui on the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, but now that the New Year has passed, we can't do any decent training during this time. There's no need for us to wait here any longer. So, I decided to leave camp tonight and set sail for Bukui. ”

Last night, Jia Min told Feng Ziying and Chen Yejun about this decision, and the two also thought that there was no need to wait here. Since you have to go, it is better to go earlier, and you can have more room on the road.

The soldiers of the Fu Corps had long known about going to Bukui, and although there was some discussion at the beginning, this discussion quickly subsided. Up and down, in fact, I have been prepared for a long time.

For a place like Bukui, it is a test for any army.

To Jia Min's relief, after a brief shock, the GIs quickly accepted this reality. There is no cowering, self-harm, and desertion. This is a testament to the effectiveness of the previous basic training.

If it had been placed in the ordinary army, those phenomena would have appeared a long time ago. Just from the point of view of the stability of the army's morale, it reflects the difference between the government corps and the vast majority of the army today. This made Li Chengbin feel very surprised.

Therefore, Jia Min said the decision to leave early, which did not cause surprise among the officers. They had experienced a lot more than this strange order, and it was really nothing to be curious about just setting off early.

"Quartermaster Jiao Li is currently organizing the loading of the relocation of the firearms workshop in Xiawazi, and the equipment will leave with us tonight. We will build a new firearms workshop in Buquay, and in the future, our army will be built into a powerful firearms army, which can compete with the Tatar cavalry and Cossack cavalry. ”

"The five hundred prisoners of Shuntianfu have been prepared, and Quartermaster Jiao Li has notified the prison, and when he leaves today, he will bring them out and escort them to Bukui."

In a few days, Cong Xiucai will lead the recruited farmers and craftsmen to rush to Bukui together. They will bring with them advanced farming techniques and craftsmanship. ”

"From now on, the government and corps will cut off all contact with the outside world, and all officers and soldiers will not be allowed to go out, nor will they be allowed to contact the outside world, including their homes."

"The fat squad leader Zhang Decai was injured in the battle against bandits and did not recover, so he left his squad to stay in Yedu, and the officers and the families of the soldiers whose families were in the imperial capital were to be notified of the news by the left-behind personnel tomorrow, and we will leave quietly without alarming the families."

"After the meeting, I immediately packed up, started dinner at 18 o'clock, and started at 19 o'clock. Now, it was up to Feng's chief of staff to lay out the marching plan. ”

In fact, the preparations for the march were basically ready as early as a few years ago. Now the preparations are not or pack some luggage and equipment, etc., the carriage and horses are ready. You don't have to bring too much grain and grass, and there are military stations along the way to supply.

After Feng Ziying arranged the marching plan, the meeting was dismissed. A short time after the officers returned, the barracks began to move. On the surface, it looks very lively, and it seems to be a little chaotic, but in fact, it is busy but not chaotic, and secretly, all affairs are going on in an orderly manner.

Similar training has been carried out before, and the effect is evident at this time.

After Jia Min looked at it for a while, he handed it over to Feng Ziying and Chen Yejun to take care of, and he himself took nine personal soldiers to Xiawazi to check the relocation and transfer of the firearms workshop.

These personal soldiers of Jia Min were personally selected for him by Chen Yejun, all of them are strong and strong. There is only one guy who seems a little out of place with these people, in the words that these GIs of the Fu Corps learned from their commanders, this guy is purely a rookie.

This rookie is the drunken King Kong Ni Er who was forcibly conscripted into the army.

In the thirteenth year of Yuan Heng, the eighth day of the first month of the year of Ding Chou, at seven o'clock in the evening.

The Noduju Barracks and the Prefecture Corps were fully equipped. More than 1,300 soldiers lined up in the playground. 、

Although spring has begun, the north is still in a cold and frozen. Despite this, there was a surging heat stream at the scene.

Jia Min, the head of the government corps, Feng Ziying, the chief of staff, and Chen Yejun, the chief of training, rode at the front of the queue.

"My soldiers, some people say that we will not be able to come back if we go to Bukui this time. To be honest with you, I don't want to go either. However, as soldiers, it is our mission to protect the country and the people, so we must go. We have no other choice. ”

"Perhaps, some of us will not be able to come back, but even if Bukui is hell on earth, we will break through. Where others dare not go, we dare to go. Just because someone else dies there doesn't mean we will. ”

"I assure you that I will lead you to create a brilliant future in Bukui that no one else has ever seen. Someday, we will return with glory and let those who want to see our jokes, shut their foul mouths! ”

"My warriors, now I command you, target Bukui, and pull out!"

With Jia Min's order, the government corps started and officially embarked on the journey to Bukui.

The fat squad leader, who dreams of chopping wood with a golden axe, leads his squad to stay behind. From now on, he will be the supreme military commander of Noduju.

Now, he regrets it, regrets that he was injured at this time. He looked down on himself a little, thinking that he seemed to be a coward.

The other brethren have gone to Bukui, but they have remained in this rear and are idle, what are they not cowards?

There are fewer people, and there is no need for a star officer, and in the future, he will be a star officer every day. Standing at the gate, looking at the night, it seems that you can still see the back of the team.

After a while, he felt a little funny.

Where can I still see it, it's long gone.

Wiping tears from his face, he returned to his sentry post. I went into the house and took out my pen and ink, and began to fill in the "Star Record".

Before, he was illiterate, let alone written.

After these months of study, he recognized a lot of words. Although the writing is still a little crooked, the commonly used characters can already be written.

Dip your pen in ink and fill in the star record.

"At 10:10 in the first month of the thirteenth year of Yuan Heng, the government corps opened Bukui."

"The head of the regiment, Jia Min, is 16 years old. Chief Feng Ziying, 18 years old. Training chief Chen Yejun, 18 years old. The commander of the first battalion, Jia Lian, is 23 years old. The commander of the second battalion, Feng Zijing, is 19 years old. The commander of the third battalion, Chen Yetong, is 18 years old. Wei Ruoshui, the direct detachment leader, is 18 years old. The youngest officer, Company Commander Qin Zhong, was 15 years old. ”

Then, the fat squad leader signed his name in the record book: Zhang Decai.
