Chapter 17 Training

Seeing that an hour had passed, Wang Yong, who was the first to hold back the unbearable, said, "My lord, the time is not short, can you take a break, if it goes on like this, I'm afraid the sergeants won't be able to support it!" ā€

Glancing at the team that was already a little crooked, Liu Fan opened his mouth and said, "Rest in place for a quarter of an hour, everyone can go and drink some water!" Keep training after a quarter of an hour! The villagers cheered and dispersed.

After a quarter of an hour, Liu Fan reconvened the team, "Brothers, I know that you are very hard, and I feel very hard! But we can't just give up because of hard work! In the last year, the Tartars crossed the Shanhai Pass and plundered the area around Jingshi, they robbed you of the food you had worked so hard to grow, killed your parents and brothers, robbed your wives and sisters, and made them live a life that is inferior to pigs and dogs, and they will take your lives in the near future! Can you endure their wanton trampling on your dignity and even your lives? The reason why I gathered everyone is to train a strong army, in the future, when they want to trample and enslave us, they can have the strength to fight back, and they can protect their relatives from harm, not only for me, but also for everyone, for my relatives, in training! Tell me, are you still afraid of hard work? After speaking, Liu Fan swept at these villagers with a sharp gaze!

Looking at Liu Fan's intimidating gaze, the villagers couldn't help but straighten their chests and shouted, "I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid of hard work!" ā€

It lasted like this for seven or eight days, every morning exercise, and then it was endless training in standing military posture, and these villagers finally got rid of their laziness and had a trace of military temperament, and they could stand decently. Then the next few days; Liu Fan began to teach his soldiers, stopping intermittent transfer and queue training. Liu Fan, who has no experience, has suffered enough! Most of these villagers are illiterate, and they don't know what left and right are. Liu Fan, who had no choice, had to ask them to tie a strip of cloth around their right arm, and in this way, most of them still made mistakes.

After more than 10 days of getting along, Liu Fan also had some understanding of his subordinates, and the villagers also got to know each other a little bit about their companions, so Liu Fan asked each team to elect a captain to come out, as for the 10 brocade guards, Liu Fan didn't want them to be in power, and still existed as a personal soldier. Daming's current rule is that the pro-soldier family is the official henchman of the main general, because these brocade guards do not have any nostalgia for the "cannon fodder" captain in their eyes, and they have successfully stepped down, and they are full of gratitude to Liu Fan who appointed them as their pro-soldiers, in fact, they don't know that the cannon fodder in their eyes is the main army in Liu Fan's mind! Liu Fan is also happy not to break it!

With the team leader, Liu Fan was much easier all of a sudden, most of the training items Liu Fan could be handed over to the team leader to train, and Liu Fan could finally take a break to do something else. For example, now Liu Fan inspects the barracks every night, asks everyone about their life and training, and Liu Fan will solve any problems in a timely manner, and will give a few words of encouragement when he meets a soldier with a bad heart, and he has gained a lot of gratitude.

In addition to following the morning exercise every day, Liu Fan will also take out one or two hours to stand in a military posture with the soldiers, and the rest of the time is to deal with the chores accumulated in the camp. Every night, Liu Fan will give the soldiers some stories of loyal ministers and famous generals such as Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, Qin Liangyu, and Yang Jiajiang, who are loyal to the monarch and serve the country, and cultivate the patriotic sentiments of the soldiers. Occasionally, he will talk about his life in the palace, and exaggerate Emperor Chongzhen, who is diligent in political affairs and frugal in life, and the situation in the Ming Dynasty is the result of corrupt officials and corrupt officials deceiving the emperor, increasing the soldiers' good impression of the emperor and hatred of corrupt officials.

Liu Fan also learned from the practice of the Eighth Route Army in later generations and asked the soldiers to hold a meeting to complain about their grievances. Tell about the tragic story of being exploited and oppressed by the landlords and bullies and being ravaged by the Tartars. On the first day, everyone still couldn't let go, no one dared to go up to say, Liu Fan had to name himself, according to these days, Li Xiaohu was the person who was most hurt by the Tartars, when the Tartars plundered, they broke into Li Xiaohu's village, not only robbed the property and food, but also slaughtered everyone in the village, only Li Xiaohu was spared, it can be said that he had a blood feud with the Tartars. So Liu Fan said: "Li Xiaohu is out of the ranks!" "Yes! "How many times have I told you?" Answer, don't bring adults! Li Xiaohu, tell me what happened to you! ā€

"It's... My lord... I—" Li Xiaohu hesitated.

"Don't you want to take revenge? That's the end of your blood feud with the Tartars? Or are you just a bastard? You don't even dare to talk about it and you want to take revenge? ā€

"My lord, I'm not a bad seed! I want revenge! Li Xiaohu shouted with a red face, walked to the front of the stage, looked at the underground crowd, hesitated for a moment before slowly saying:

"My family is Li's camp, I believe that everyone who knows me knows, Chongzhen three years, one day in May, I gave my mother to Tongzhou City to get medicine, just arrived from the city's pharmacy, I saw the street in a commotion, a question to know, Tartar to the vicinity of Beijing, Tongzhou City martial law, a look at this heart said no, I still want to go out of the city, my mother is still waiting for me! When I rushed to the city gate, the city gate was closed, I begged the military master who guarded the door, but they not only did not open the door for me, but also beat me, there was no way, I could only wait at the city gate, to see if there was a chance to go out of the city, the city gate was closed for three days, I guarded the city gate and did not leave a step, and finally the gatekeeper always heard about me, and thought that my filial piety was commendable, so he put a hanging basket on the city and sent me out of the city. I hurried back to the village, I just arrived at the entrance of the village and I felt wrong, because there was no sound in the village, not even the sound of a dog barking, I said badly, and quickly ran to the village, I was stunned by the scene in front of me, the village was full of dead bodies, and there was no head... When I ran home, I saw my daughter-in-law nailed to the door, she had been insulted by the Tartars, and the old lady had been dead for a long time when she fell to the side... I buried the whole village in three days, and I swore in front of the graves of the whole village, old and young, that I would cut off the heads of the tartars with my own hands to pay tribute to them! I originally wanted to go to the Nine Sides to be a soldier, but I heard that my lord..."Halfway through the words, this usually training no matter how hard it is. I've never shouted tired, I've never shouted bitterness, and the man who beats like iron has actually whined and cried!

Liu Fan stepped forward and patted Li Xiaohu on the shoulder, "I promise you, you will definitely have the opportunity to take revenge with your own hands!" After that, looking at the sergeants in the audience or clasping their hands with angry faces, shaking their heads, sighing or silent, Liu Fan said loudly, "The hatred of blood can only be repaid with blood!" As long as everyone practices their skills, Ben will definitely lead everyone to take revenge on those who have bullied and hurt us! Let them pay with blood! ā€

"Blood debt and blood payment!" The angry sergeant of the underground shouted loudly! Slowly, the voices gradually converged, and the shouts of "blood debt and blood payment" spread throughout the camp! Looking at the high morale underground, Liu Fan was very satisfied!

Half a month has passed since the start of military training, and Liu Fan's training has been on the right track in this half a month, Liu Fan remembered that his soldiers did not have weapons and armor, and they were still wearing their own clothes of various colors, which looked messy, so Liu Fan decided to go back to Beijing and find Chongzhen to solve the matter of weapons, of course, you can take a look at your two little girls by the way, after all, I haven't seen him for half a month! It's time for you to go back to harvesting! After explaining that several squad leaders trained as usual, they also left 2 brocade guards to take care of the training! Liu Fan took Wang Yong to the capital!
