Chapter 179: Military Training (2)

Two months of arduous military training began, and after that day of training, many of the newly recruited recruits were apprehensive, but none of them stood up to leave. are all men more than five feet tall, admitting that they can't endure hardship in front of so many people, where do they put their faces?

Besides, most of them are farmers who have lost their land or have land but can't eat enough, Tiance Army gives such a high salary, in order for the mother, wife, and children to have enough food and books, they must grit their teeth and persevere. However, there are still many people muttering in their hearts, thinking that Xiao Qubing is scaring people, is the army drilling, haven't you seen it before?

As a result, these recruits with this idea quickly learned what it means to die and come back to life, and what it means to squeeze the last trace of strength. Not to mention them, even the three thousand Tiance veterans, a small half of them are complaining in their hearts.

The drill code has been formulated a long time ago, and most of the content is the same as when the Flying Dragon Forbidden Army was trained, and the rest is basic training.

Considering that the vast majority of the 27,000 recruits were peasants who had just put down their hoes, the strategy formulated by Xiao Quzhi and Ma Sui Li Sheng was to use 300 guards and officers as instructors, 300 Anxi veterans and Tiance veterans as military judges, and more than 2,000 Tiance veterans as the backbone.

Rao was so thoughtful that it was very difficult to train these peasants who had just put down their hoes.

First of all, although they are accustomed to obedience, they have no sense of discipline at all, and they are used to being free and loose, which is easy to do, and strict military discipline and merciless punishment of military sticks are solved. This time, the one hundred and fifty guards who were sick were considered to be happy.

As long as you violate discipline, whether you leave the team without permission or speak without shouting a report. Still looking around. It's still the wrong move. is still a question to the instructor, all of them are a military stick, those who dare to plead, add twenty military sticks, and those who dare to moan/cry will beat ten more military sticks.

In three days, 27,000 recruits, almost all of whom were beaten. Even more than 2,000 Tiance veterans have been beaten, and after these three days, no one in the 30,000 Tiance army dares to question the instructors or do not abide by discipline.

Compared with discipline, the various qualities and qualities of these recruits are the real headaches, and there are those who are physically weak, those who are left and right, and those who have the same hands and feet. There are those who are nervous as soon as they train, and there are those who are too stupid in their brains. It's a shame that Xiao Qu has a good patience, otherwise he would have been angry to death.

"The bowl is left, the chopsticks are right!"

"First left, then right!"

"Left hand and right foot, left foot and right hand, all of them, walk in unison!"

An Baozhen shouted the slogan loudly, after a few days of intensive training, the team of 200 people can barely maintain the queue, but there are still many people who can't tell the difference between left and right, and suddenly there is a burst of military sticks crackling on the shoulders and backs of the wrong soldiers.

The more some soldiers were beaten, the more anxious they became, and the more chaotic their steps became, until they had walked more than ten steps before they adjusted; Some of them have a weak temperament, so they unconsciously shouted pain again, and An Baozhen shouted: "Those who shout in pain and shout, add ten more military sticks!" ”

Everywhere the sound was heard, several cries of pain immediately stopped, and the two hundred people suddenly became silent, and only the sound of walking in unison and hitting the back of the stick was heard.

Xiao Quzhi, Li Qi, Li Sheng, Ma Sui, Qin Yiyan, the deputy commander of Tiance Mansion, and Cao Xueyang, the general of Xuanwei, stood on the edge of the Daxiao Field and watched this scene, and the same scene also happened in various other places in the Daxiao Field.

Seeing that there was a seventeen-year-old soldier named Xu Erduo who had been beaten too much, Qin Yiyan couldn't help but whisper: "Commander, isn't it too harsh to keep fighting like this?" That Xu Erduo was just too straightforward, and he cried out when he was nervous; Besides, most of these recruits are farmers, and they must always be given time to adapt slowly, so that they will fight blindly in case they break down......"

"Fighting them is also for their good, there is strict discipline on the battlefield, the orders are clear, such as how important it is to make the arm and the finger, General Qin will not know? I just want them to know what is the iron discipline of the army and what is the prohibition of orders and prohibitions in the fastest time!

If you don't hurry up and practice now, it will be too late for the big war to start! Not to mention anything else, Nanzhao is very hanging, although Li Mi is dedicated to his work, he is not handsome. When the time comes, we will have to ask our Tiance army to go out, how can we have time to wait for them to slowly adapt! ”

Xiao Qu said coldly, paused, remembered one more thing, and ordered: "During this time, the food must be good, the staple food tube is full, and ensure that each soldier has at least half a catty of meat and a chicken every day." Also, the instructors and military judges were instructed to personally medicate the beaten soldiers, and whoever hit them was on the medicine. ”

When it came to food, Li Sheng's face was very gloomy, and he said: "Commander, these days, our Tiance Mansion and various construction sites in Luoyang have consumed a lot of grain and a large number of pigs and sheep every day.

The local profiteers and big families have taken the opportunity to raise their prices, and the original 500 yuan a pig and 450 yuan a sheep have now risen by 70 or 80 percent, but they still refuse to sell more, and the price of grain has also risen by almost 40 percent.

Now we are using money everywhere, and it is better to say that just this daily food, the silver money is spent like running water, but our own pigs and sheep will not be slaughtered for several months, and if this continues, we will run out of money!

Also, the lives of many residents in Luoyang City have also been seriously affected, pigs and sheep can not be eaten, but as soon as the price of food rises, many families will not be able to live immediately, and there are already many old people who are coming to complain! ”

"Send you 500 troops, and let Yanjian (Li Xian) dispatch the officials of Henan Province to the entire Dugi Province and Henan Province adjacent to us, and find those big families to buy grain, pigs and sheep, so that they can ensure the supply of the market, and the price will be increased by 20% on the original basis.

Tell them that if they cooperate, they will take them to the South China Sea to make a fortune, and those who do not want to go to the South China Sea will give them the right to sell the immortal drunk and the immortal brew when the time comes; If anyone dares to disobey and wants to continue to raise prices and hoard Juqi, they will all lock me up and ask their families to take money to Tiance Mansion to ransom people! ”

What Li Sheng didn't know was that Xiao Qubing actually had money, and the six million yuan brought by Chang'an was enough for at least more than a year, and the other five million yuan from the Luoyang branch of Sihai Qianzhuang could also be used.

Since Xiao Quzhi announced that not only does not need to pay storage fees, but also has interest to be paid for depositing money in Sihai Bank, the treasury of Sihai Bank in various places has been almost full at once.

But having said that, Xiao Qubing was unwilling to be the culprit of this injustice, let alone watching the lives of the people near Luoyang become difficult because of himself.

Xiao Quzhi has the intelligence agency of this internal guard in his hands, and has the privilege of reconnaissance and visitation, and then spies on the convenience of the intelligence of Maitreya, Manichaeism and Snake Tooth, and also conducts some intelligence exploration and sorting out of the big landlords around Luoyang, how can he not know their true situation?

It is true that the Tiance Fu Group consumed a large amount of grain, pigs, sheep, chickens and fish in a short period of time, coupled with the relatively backward transportation capacity of the Tang Dynasty, which would indeed make such materials in short supply and prices soar in the market near Luoyang.

But in fact, it is only the common people who are affected, these local tyrants and big landlords have a large number of such materials in their hands, and they do not enter the market, they just want to sell them at a high price or take the opportunity to annex the land of the poor.

Li Sheng took the order and left, and several people dispersed, and each led the team to train. Although Ma Sui was specifically responsible for the training, and Qin Yiyan was the deputy, Xiao Qubing and all the high-level military officials had to personally participate in it, and they had to be present at the training every day.

Whether it's cohort training; or physical training, running exercises, push-ups, sit-ups, squats carrying wood, Baduanjin; Or tactical training, wielding knives, bayonets, drawing bows; It was also an emergency assembly at night, and all the officers, including Xiao Quai, had to accompany him.

There is a cross-country running competition every two days, which is still the same as the previous training of the Flying Dragon Forbidden Army, and those who win have meat to eat, and those who lose drink soup!

Everyone's opinion on Xiao Quai's training method is a little different, Qin Yiyan thinks that he is a little too eager, how can he practice like this? It's completely based on money, food, meat, and high salaries and treatment, otherwise if you beat people like this, the army's spirit will not be dispersed? Training like this every day, the soldiers eat at least three times as much as usual, and they are poor in food. He thinks it's okay to take it slow so that it can cost a little less.

But Cao Xueyang thinks that this kind of training is very good and effective, anyway, that guy is rich, the God of Wealth of the Tang Dynasty. At this moment, while leading the team to run and exercise, she thought in her heart: "This Xiao Qu is really bold in doing things, not afraid of things, there is a big family near Luoyang, and if it is hard, it will be hard."

However, he also has such confidence and capital, on the one hand, he can give other benefits to this big family, and on the other hand, Xiao Qubing has the trust of the emperor. These two places are better than General Wang, but I don't know how to compare with General Wang in leading troops to fight? ”

Then she suddenly laughed, at least one thing, he was inferior to General Wang. (To be continued.) )
