At the foot of the Purple Mountain, a huge new city was built, surrounded by high brick walls, and watchtowers were set up on all sides. It's heavily guarded, and apart from the occasional soldier and the occasional cart coming and going, few people can understand what is going on inside. The people in the vicinity only knew that it was a barracks, and used to call it the new barracks.

This is indeed a new battalion, because it not only has to produce a large number of weapons and equipment that are rare in the world, but also continuously trains the latest soldiers for the future Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

Lin Haifeng's specially formed teaching brigade was officially stationed.

In this unit, he has put a lot of effort into it. According to his request, Yang Xiuqing, the king of the East, deliberately reinstated a group of young generals from the Boy Scouts such as Chen Yucheng, Li Xiucheng, Li Shixian, and Tan Shaoguang, as well as a group of backbone soldiers. There were soldiers from the Northern Expedition and the Western Expedition, as well as defenders from Tianjing, Zhenjiang and Yangzhou. Here, they will accept the use of new weapons and the use of new methods of warfare. Of course, it is also necessary to update the latest ideas. A qiē and a qiē, for them, will be a new beginning.

"Brothers, you are the elite soldiers of my Heavenly Army, the hope of the Celestial Empire, and you will become heroes who will make the enemy fearful!" This was Lin Haifeng's opening remarks at the first rally of the Teaching Brigade.

Looking at the six phalanxes composed of 2,400 soldiers sitting on all sides of the platform, Lin Haifeng was satisfied. He personally read the resumes of these 2,400 people. They are all from poor backgrounds, they all have impressive records, and they are all young.

A soldier who doesn't want to be a marshal is not a good soldier, Lin Haifeng has dreamed of one day being able to lead thousands of troops under the influence of his father since he was a child, which is the pride of a soldier's life. It's just that he never thought that he would lead such a group of people in this era.

"I know that before the brothers joined the Heavenly Army, they were all poor people, and you had charcoal workers who burned kilns, tenants of landlords' families, and young men who shopkeepers. I think everyone must understand that if we all have land and food, we will not risk destroying our doors and join the Heavenly Army with our heads. So, what is the ultimate purpose of our participation in the Celestial Army? Lin Haifeng looked around and stayed on Chen Yucheng's face in the front row, "Chen Yucheng, I want to ask you to answer this question of mine." ”

Chen Yucheng, this is a young man who is not yet seventeen, but Zhou's body exudes a heroic atmosphere, and it is the war that makes him mature prematurely. His eyes are not big, but the lines on the eyelids are so deep that many people jokingly call him four-eyed. Don't look at his age, but he is not famous in the Heavenly Army. In the Battle of Wuchang at the beginning of the year, he was the first to rank the steel knife and first rushed to the head of Wuchang City, for which he won the reward of the Heavenly King. He and Li Xiucheng, Li Shixian, Tan Shaoguang, Chen Kunshu, Fan Ruseng, and the six tigers of the Boy Scouts.

Hearing King An's question, he stood up shyly, "Returning to Your Highness, our goal is to overthrow the Manchu Emperor and create a new heavenly kingdom. ”

"Hehe," Lin Haifeng smiled, "then can you tell me what this new kingdom of heaven is like?" ”

"Back to Your Highness, the world is peaceful, there will be no more wars, everyone will have food to eat, and everyone will have clothes to wear." Chen Yucheng straightened his waist and replied loudly.

Lin Haifeng motioned for him to sit down, and then pointed to an ordinary soldier behind him, "You tell me what you think." ”

"At first, I knew that if I followed the Heavenly King, I would be able to eat enough. Later, as the days went by, I also knew the truth that the inspector had just said. But specifically tell me, Your Highness, I can't say it well. The soldier bowed his head in embarrassment.

"Okay, that's a good point." Lin Haifeng waved his hand, "It's all good, but it's not comprehensive enough." Our ultimate goal is to completely overthrow the feudal dynasty and establish a peaceful world in which the people themselves are the masters of their own affairs. What is 'the people'? It's you, it's me, it's our family, and all the people in the world who are oppressed by the government and bullies you don't know. ”

He paused, crossed his hands on his hips, and said in a loud voice: "The state has its own laws, and the army has military regulations, but I don't want to talk about these things first." Today I just want to teach you two words and a song. ”

"What's the word? It's 'revolution', what is 'revolution'? He looked at the soldiers who were waiting for him intently, and stretched out his palm and slashed hard at his neck, "It is to eliminate all the forces that dare to go against our will and prevent us from building a better world." Get rid of the life of the Manchu emperor, and get rid of the lives of those corrupt officials and corrupt officials, local tyrants and shoddy gentry who ride on the heads of the people! ”

"What is a song? These are the 'three disciplines and eight attentions'. We are new soldiers, and we must always remember that we are still the people's soldiers and the ranks of the 'revolution'. We must not only learn to sing, but also sing it all over the barracks and the entire army, and more importantly, we must engrave it in our bones and implement it in our every action! Lin Haifeng walked around on the platform, looking at everyone sternly, "In a month's time, a formal flag awarding ceremony for the formation of the teaching brigade and the corresponding appointments will be held, and the study and training will be carried out in accordance with the current establishment for the time being." In the interim, all unqualified personnel will be removed from the ranks of the Forces nouvelles. We don't need any scum! ”

Revolutionary soldiers should keep in mind that they should pay attention to the three major disciplines and eight points.

The first qiē action is to listen to the command, and only by walking in unison can we win.

Second, I don't take a needle and thread from the masses, and the masses support and like me.

Third, the seizure should be returned to the public, and efforts should be made to reduce the burden on the people.

We have to do the three major disciplines, and don't forget the eight points of attention.

First, speak in a harmonious manner, respect the masses, and don't play proud.

Second, the buying and selling price should be fair, and public buying and selling should not be overbearing.

Thirdly, if the borrower has used something, return it in person and do not lose it.

Fourth, if the thing is damaged, the compensation will not be worse than half a cent.

Fifth, it is forbidden to beat and scold people, and the warlord style is resolutely overcome.

Sixth, love the crops of the masses, and pay attention to the march and combat everywhere.

Seventh, it is forbidden to molest women, and the hooligan habit must be eliminated.

Eighth, it is forbidden to mistreat prisoners, beat and scold, and not to search their pockets.

Everyone should be conscious of discipline and supervise each other and never violate.

Revolutionary discipline must be clearly remembered, and the people's fighters love the people everywhere.

The defense of the motherland will always move forward, and the people of the whole country will support and welcome it.

He taught and sang word by word, and explained in detail with his fingers crossed. He tried his best to imitate the appearance of the great leader in his mind, and even felt that he would be good if he also had a strong Hunan accent.

With him is the south and north tones, the sound of different thicknesses, from chaotic to neat. When more than 2,000 people pulled their throats and finally sang this song, the ground trembled beneath their feet, and the sturdy watchtowers seemed to sway in the distance
