Chapter 470 The West Market buys quilts, the East Market buys cloth shoes, and the honor guard camp is formed
After driving out all the rat droppings, Li had to select soldiers from the remaining 2,000 people at first. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info He picks troops, or according to the Dingbei garrison regiment, as long as he is honest and obedient, timid and cowardly. As for those who are smart, skillful, temperamental, braggart, and so on, they should not be allowed.
In the end, more than 2,000 people only picked out more than 700 soldiers. Li Deyi dismissed the more than 1,000 people, leaving these 780 soldiers alone.
During the whole process, Zhu Biao watched honestly and studied carefully, and at the same time had a lot of doubts in his heart. His father, Zhu Luchen, once briefly told him some tips for picking soldiers, such as giving priority to those who are physically strong, especially those with thick arms, thin waists, long legs and strong walking. This type of person is often physically strong, and with a little training, he can become a good soldier.
But his current teacher, Brother Li's requirements for recruiting soldiers seem to be completely different from what his father said. There was one of the selected soldiers, who was already so hungry that his face was full of vegetables, his limbs were thin and weak, and when he saw Brother Li walking in front of him, he was even frightened and his legs weakened. But Li De immediately picked this person, but he didn't even look at another strong man with a strong body next to him, and eliminated him directly.
Zhu Biao didn't understand, but he didn't rush to ask, but patiently continued to look down.
Li Deyi then took the selected soldiers into a private house near the North Campus Yard as their temporary barracks. This is a house that Li Deyi bought a few days in advance, and it is an ordinary house, and it didn't cost a lot of money.
Then Li Deyi sent Li Wushu to take these soldiers to divide their own beds first. Li Deyi took Zhu Biao and the others to buy covers, bedding, and customized military uniforms for these soldiers.
Zhu Biao temporarily served as Li Deyi's little secretary, responsible for recording and settling accounts. Song Lian is actually quite enlightened, not the kind of really rigid Confucian scholar, he has taught Zhu Biao some mathematical techniques.
Shopping, Li Changle and Liu An were somehow particularly interested, and they were noisy and shouted, so they had to follow Li Deyi.
As soon as Li Deyi returned to his house, he entered the inner room, took out a box of money, and put it on the back of the Humvee.
Since the destruction of Shi Kangcheng, Zhu Luchen's rewards to Li Deyi have been almost every day, most of which are all gold and silver. When Zhu Luchen heard that Deputy Head Li liked to copy people's homes, he thought he was greedy for money, so he wanted to use a lot of money to delay and stabilize Li Deyi. The total number of rewards added up to nearly a million silver coins.
Shikang City was broken too quickly, so fast that Ashina Wolf Qing didn't have time to empty the large amount of goods piled up in the city. These gold, silver and jewelry are all cheaper than Zhu Luchen, so he can now use gold and silver to envelop Li Deyi.
Zhu Luchen originally thought that allowing Li Deyi to recruit soldiers and horses, and not giving him weapons, military uniforms, and military salaries, would be able to restrain Li Deyi. But he didn't want to, Li Deyi directly took Zhu Luchen's rewards these days as a replacement for military funds. This can be regarded as the wool coming out of the sheep.
Li Deyi took Zhu Biao and said as he walked: "Did you see the situation where I picked up troops just now?" Zhu Biao nodded.
"There's a hungry guy who I chose him, do you see any way to it?" Zhu Biao shook his head honestly.
This man was so hungry, and his clothes were in tatters, but when I looked at him, there was no hint of pity. He was so hungry that he could barely stand on his feet, his legs were shaking, and he didn't open his mouth to ask for help. It can be seen that this man is an honest man with backbone. This kind of person will be raised, and he must be a good soldier. ”
Zhu Biao nodded seriously.
The strong man next to him looked tall and strong, and he was quite brave. But his face is full of rebelliousness, and he has been mixed up on the street at a glance. This kind of person, at first glance, is quite easy to use, and looks like an elite soldier, but in fact, it is very easy to violate military discipline. Moreover, this kind of person is born to only care about himself, and once the war is in difficulty, the first person who wants to escape must be this kind of soldier. ”
Zhu Biao nodded heavily and kept these words in his heart.
As he walked, Li De was verbose with Zhu Biao about these details at the beginning. Li Deyi knew that Zhu Biao couldn't digest so many things at all, but he had a good brain, so he could keep it in his heart first, and then slowly take it out and think about it when he had time later.
At the end of the day, walking through the streets and alleys, Li Deyi took Zhu Biao and walked dozens of shops in Shikang City in a row, and finally selected a few powerful large old shops and ordered goods with them.
As for Li Changle and Liu An, they didn't know where to go halfway. Li Deyi didn't care about the two of them, these two people made a mess for him, and they always stole a glance at women's clothes when they had nothing to do, which caused the store to frequently cast questioning glances. Now that he was gone, Li Deyi was quite happy to shake off the burden.
In the old shop, Li had to buy 2,000 sets of cotton quilts and 2,000 sets of mats.
In the old tailor's shop, Li had to order 2,000 sets of military uniforms.
The style of this military uniform was personally discussed and decided by Li Deyi with the shopkeeper of the Liang genre, and on the basis of roughly copying Zhu Luchen's infantry uniform, he made some changes in the details to make it look unique as a whole. For example, Li Deyi asked the shopkeeper to change the collar to a hard collar and embroider a beautiful yellow collar flower on it.
In the old shoe store Zu Qianli, Li had to order 2,000 pairs of coarse cloth shoes with mille-feuille soles.
In the three stores, Li Deyi asked for all the mid-range materials, and paid a deposit on the spot. Uncle Hummer followed the hard day, personally carrying a box of gold, and followed behind Li Deyi.
At lunchtime, Li Deyi deliberately rushed to the best restaurant in Shikang City half an hour in advance, ordered a table of first-class noodles, and entertained Uncle Hummer.
Zhu Biao knew for the first time that this heterogeneous mule actually ate meat and drank alcohol!
Uncle Hummer's stomach is not ordinarily big! Built into the three major tables and waited for the table, and the tribute duck alone ate six, and Li Deyi didn't eat as much as him.
After eating, Li Deyi packed 800 percent beef xiaolong soup dumplings and asked the store to hire someone temporarily to pull the carriage to the north school field.
Each of the seven hundred and eighty soldiers had one portion, and Li Wushu ate twenty portions by himself.
On the first day of enlistment, there were steamed buns with beef filling, but these recruits were so happy that they ate so much. Many people cried while eating, Li Deyi stepped forward and asked, they all said that their parents had never eaten such a good meat bun, but they were the son who ate them first, which was really unfilial.
Li Deyi secretly instructed Zhu Biao to write down all the things that cried after eating beef soup dumplings, and kept them for future promotion.
At the next day, Li Deyi asked Zhu Biao to dictate the military regulations to these soldiers, let these soldiers try to memorize them, and said, who can remember more than three tomorrow, who still has meat buns to eat. For dinner, the soldiers ate rice with umeboshi and broth.
In the evening, Li Deyi asked Zhu Biao to start the general accounting, calculate the total amount of money spent during the day, and report it to himself.
Zhu Biao was busy until late at night, and finally figured it out in time, but when he came to Li Deyi's door, he found that he had fallen asleep, so he had to go back and report tomorrow.
At the end of this day, Zhu Biao actually handled more things than he had been in contact with Song Lian for half a year in the past. But Zhu Biao still successfully completed the task and did not make any major mistakes.
The next day, as soon as Li De took Zhu Biao's report, pretended to look at it a few times, praised Zhu Biao for a few words, and assigned him a new task. Anyway, it's all his father Zhu Luchen's money, and Li Deyi doesn't care, it's just to train Zhu Biao and let him know what Qian can do.
Li Deyi asked Zhu Biao to inspect the soldiers' recitation of military regulations, and strictly according to the results of the inspection, arranged three meals for this day. If you can recite more than three, you can eat meat buns. If you can't memorize it, you can only eat rice and pickles today.
In the first half of the day, Li Deyi asked the soldiers to recite military regulations, and in the second half of the day, Li De taught the soldiers to recognize the left and right. From this day on, the recruit training is considered to be the official beginning.
Li Deyi's various actions in training troops in the past few days were naturally all watched by Zhu Luchen.
Zhu Luchen looked at the report from his subordinates, and he was a little confused for a while. "What is this Deputy Head Li going to do? He didn't look like he was recruiting and training soldiers, but like a treat. For these seven hundred and eighty soldiers, they were given good food and drink, and they were covered with clothes, and even shoes were issued. This Deputy Regiment Commander Li is quite generous, and King Gu will see what elite soldiers he can train like this. Zhu Luchen frowned and decided to continue to observe patiently.
On the seventh day of the formal training, the first batch of 800 sets of covers and quilts finally arrived. Naturally, the soldiers who were able to recite the military regulations were the first to receive brand new covers and quilts.
This aroused the enthusiasm of the soldiers to recite military regulations, and the obscure military regulations and military discipline in the past finally became catchy.
On the eighth day, the brand new coarse cloth shoes arrived! Li Deyi only has two models: medium and large. With a full meal to eat, these soldiers will be fatter than they are now in the future, so Li Deyi didn't ask for small shoes.
Stimulated by the new shoes, these soldiers worked hard one after another, and finally memorized all the military regulations.
During this time, Li Deyi was still working hard to teach these soldiers to recognize left and right. Many soldiers could still distinguish left and right at first, but as long as Li Deyi shouted to turn forward, turn backward, and turn around for a circle or two, most of the soldiers would forget about left and right. Most of the remaining half is also right. There is no way, the smart and clever ones have been eliminated by Li Deyi, and the remaining stupid ones can only be taught by Li Deyi.
On the twentieth day of the official training, the first batch of 800 new military uniforms arrived! Seeing this brand-new military uniform, all the recruits were overjoyed. According to their body shapes, Li Deyi handed out military uniforms to them one by one.
As soon as the new military uniform was put on, Li Deyi and these soldiers suddenly showed a bit of taste. Especially the hard collar on the new military uniform, it is even more lined with the spirit of these soldiers.
After the military uniform was issued, Li Deyi found more than 100 head shaving masters in the city and shaved the short hair of these soldiers in a boxy manner.
Short hair, new military uniforms. Combining the two, Li Deyi, the seven hundred and eighty recruits, has not practiced anything formal, and they show a fierce spirit out of thin air.
When Zhu Luchen heard the report of his subordinates, he couldn't help but take a look. He is also an expert in the use of soldiers, so he can naturally see the way out. After going back, Zhu Luchen began to consider forcing his soldiers and horses to shave all their short hair.
Some generals didn't understand why, so Zhu Luchen asked them to see Li Deyi's 780 soldiers. Anyone who has seen it nodded in agreement when they came back.
