In order to make a long-term plan, Xiao Mubai carried out a formal rectification of the patrol battalion after the start of the next day. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The whole of Guangnan Mansion has a good relationship with Xiao Mubai, the Guangnan Governor is an honest official, and the Baoning Governor has a good relationship with Xiao Mubai. In this way, Xiao Mubai first started from Baoning County, and unified the patrol battalion of 300 people, and the remaining 200 people after the removal of Wucunjing, and recruited more than 100 people, and the establishment was the scale of three posts in each battalion.
Next, Xiao Mubai formulated a strict training plan for the patrol battalion in accordance with the actual situation of the current joint defense team. Get up at six o'clock in the morning, then line up for exercises, have dinner at seven o'clock, gather at seven forty o'clock, start a morning queue training, start dinner at twelve o'clock, then take a lunch break, start physical training in the afternoon at half past two in the afternoon, start dinner at six o'clock in the evening, organize cultural study at seven o'clock, and start going to bed at ten o'clock in the evening.
So, in the following days, the soldiers of the patrol battalion began to run in line on the playground every morning before dawn, standing in a military posture under the scorching sun for several hours, conducting various trainings, and so on. Although the training of a large amount of exercise makes the soldiers of these patrol battalions miserable, but they do not have the slightest complaint, the people of this era are very simple-minded, they originally ate this bowl of rice, and they did this kind of work, although the training is harder now, but the food has also become good. Not only that, but the Commander actually trained with them, in the past, where would there be such a scene?
In this way, for a whole month, Xiao Mubai was wrestling and crawling on the playground with his patrol battalion soldiers. For these simple officers and soldiers, as long as the commander can come to see them train, he is already a good leader, let alone train with them, not to mention training now, and one training is a month. By the end of the training a month later, Xiao Mubai's prestige in the patrol team was no longer incomparable.
Not only these soldiers, but also their pipe band Yan Weidong, after this month, there was also a big change in their attitude towards Xiao Mubai. From the original vigilance, to lukewarmness, to the final admiration and admiration. After all, looking at the whole country, the commander of the patrol battalion who can train with the soldiers cannot be said to be none, but it is definitely rare.
A month later, the officers and soldiers of the entire battalion of the patrol team stood on the renovated barracks playground, and all of them looked at Xiao Mubai in front of the queue with reverence. And looking at the neat and motionless queue in front of him, Xiao Mubai also nodded secretly, he could see that his hard work was not in vain. So, he pointed to the three carts behind him that had rushed from Zhulin Town, and asked loudly, "Do you know what this is?" ā
Without waiting for the following answer, Xiao Mubai jerked the canvas covered by the car, opened a box, took out a rifle, and said loudly: "Let me tell you, this is the Mauser 1998 rifle, which is much stronger than the Hanyangzao used by the new army, it uses 6.92 mm bullets with a capacity of five rounds." But now, they're yours. ā
At this moment, the soldiers below were no longer calm, and they stared at the dark rifle in Xiao Mubai's hand with excited eyes. Yan Weidong was even more excited, and hurriedly ran forward, picked up a rifle, and looked at it carefully. Suddenly, he turned his head and asked Xiao Mubai in a trembling voice, "My lord, is this really a gun for the brothers?" ā
Xiao Mubai looked at Yan Weidong, whose eyes were red, and nodded heavily.
Yan Weidong saw Xiao Mubai nodding, and just bent one leg to kneel, but thinking of Xiao Mubai's regulations, he made a "snap" decision, and after saluting a new-style military salute, he shouted loudly: "Humble Yan Weidong, swear to serve the adult!" ā
"Swear to the service of adults!" The soldiers below also shouted in unison.
Xiao Mubai smiled and nodded, it seems that it is only today that he has really accepted the heart of this tiger general.
You know, this Yan Weidong is not an ordinary person, when he was twelve years old, during the Sino-French War, his father followed the Qing army to Vietnam and never came back, all relied on his mother to raise him with hard work, so he was filial to his mother and his filial piety, and he had a bitter hatred for the imperialist powers. Because of his generosity and righteousness, he has always been loved by the soldiers of the patrol team.
Later, because of the formation and training of the new army, the Qing government paid less and less attention to the patrol battalion, coupled with the corruption of the imperial court and the greed and oppression of officials at all levels, Yan Weidong's ambition was finally gradually smoothed out. But now, with the arrival of Xiao Mubai and seeing him buy a new type of ordnance patrol team for new training, the blood in his heart began to boil again.
Xiao Mubai laughed heartily, and then said, "Okay, don't talk about it, Chen Chuan, start firing the gun below." ā
The guns began to be distributed, looking at the elated appearance of the soldiers below after receiving the guns, Xiao Mubai couldn't help but show a bad smile at the corner of his mouth, and this bad smile was clearly seen by Yan Weidong who was standing next to him, he couldn't be clearer about such a bad smile, in the past month, I have not seen this kind of smile of the commander, and I have not seen the soldiers suffer after this. So, his heart couldn't help but begin to mourn for the joyful soldiers below.
Sure enough, within two days, Xiao Mubai re-formulated the training outline for the patrol battalion. The current patrol battalion is not what it used to be, in addition to not being equipped with light machine guns and mortars of the Zhulin Town Joint Defense Team, it can be regarded as armed to the teeth, all officers are revolvers, and each soldier has a Mauser 98, and each post has a Makqin heavy machine gun. It can be said that if they consider themselves second in the patrol team in the whole country, absolutely no one dares to admit first place.
Ā·Ā·Ā·Ā·Ā·Ā·
On this day, on the training ground. Some of the soldiers were shouting trumpets to practice in the queue, some were practicing stabbing with the sound of killing, and on the shooting range a little farther away, there was also the sound of "horn and horn" gunfire, which kept ringing and came from time to time. Facing such a hot training scene of the entire patrol team, and watching the rapid changes of the soldiers of his patrol team, Yan Weidong simply revered Xiao Mubai, the commander standing in front of him, to the core. Although the team is training a little more ruthlessly now, the various treatments and changes are very good, and compared with before, it is not an exaggeration to say that there is a world of difference.
In this way, it was not until the three-month period had passed that the basic training of the patrol battalion was completed. After each person is firing at least 100 rounds of ammunition per day, it is not said that it is 100 rounds and 100 hits, but it is certain that it will hit the target. Although these soldiers in front of him have now begun to show their fierce temperament, Xiao Mubai only looked at it lightly, after all, in his eyes, soldiers who have never been on the battlefield and have never seen blood, no matter how good the training is, it is useless. Maybe after a while, they will be pulled out of the city to suppress the bandits, and if they see blood, this army will not be far from a strong army.
Thinking like this, Xiao Mubai nodded, and then said to the officers and soldiers lined up in the field: "Starting today, the three-month intensive training is officially over, and normal training will resume every day in the future." However, you must remember that from this day forward, you are a real soldier. Obedience is the nature of a soldier, even if I am unreasonable, no matter how arrogant and unreasonable, as long as I am still your commander, you must obey. Do you understand? ā
"Understood!"
"So what's the problem?"
Seeing this, Zhou Xiaohu in the "report" queue immediately shouted loudly.
"Speak!"
"My lord, it's right for subordinates to obey their superiors, but if your orders are wrong, should we obey them too?"
"Good question!" Xiao Mubai's face was cold, and he said undoubtedly: "In my place, a reasonable command is training, and an unreasonable command exercise. So, no matter what, all you have to do is obedience. ā
After Xiao Mubai finished speaking, after glancing at the stunned patrol soldiers, he snorted coldly and walked away.
