"A big road, leading to my house, my family lives in also, under a big mountain. The soil under the mountain is fertile, ten acres of land, ten acres of fertile land, what to plant......" On the official road outside the training base in Pingdu Prefecture, the military song composed of the voices of countless soldiers and geese shook the sky.

Zhong Laosi stood on the side of the road with a few staff officers, looking at the young soldier in front of him happily, after he returned to Dengzhou with the headquarters of the young man, he went to martial arts for a few months. I happened to meet Lu Chuanzong, and as a result, there was a mess in the martial arts, Zhong Laosi still had the ability to see this bit of limelight, and he ignored things outside of martial arts, and honestly completed the tactical improvement opinions of the musket and dragoon troops, handed them over to the Military Affairs Department and the martial arts, and took the martial arts students to simulate and evaluate.

At the end of September, as soon as the improvement suggestions were completed, the Military Affairs Department sent an order to let Zhong Laosi report back to Dengzhou. Zhong Laosi saw Chen Xin again, Chen Xin didn't talk nonsense with him like last time, and directly ordered him to go to the Pingdu Prefecture training base to accept a new batch of young soldiers, and prepare to form the Second Guards Battalion, which has only two thousand headquarters for the time being, and Zhong Laosi is the new acting battalion officer.

Most of the young soldiers in the Pingdu Prefecture training base also came from Tunpu schools and vocational schools, and completed basic literacy and arithmetic learning. The military not only has a high salary, but also has various preferential treatments, such as the retired military can be given priority to enter the civil department, schools, trading companies, and serve as the head of the canton, etc., and can also give priority to doing business and contracting comprehensive stores in various places.

In addition, the military personnel in Dengzhou have a very high degree of honor, and the professional soldiers who have been trained by strict military discipline are extremely disciplined, and basically have not committed crimes among the people. Coupled with the propaganda of military newspapers, storytelling, school education, etc., wearing that beautiful Red Army uniform on the road was respected by the people. If it is accompanied by a few medals, even the blind date is more neat than the average tunhu. For the newcomers. To marry the soldiers of Dengzhou is to establish a foothold in Dengzhou.

Chen Xin's Second Guards Battalion is mainly a source of young soldiers, and only half of the grassroots officers are fully equipped, and most of these staff officers, flag captains, platoon commanders, and Baizong are from Wendeng Martial Arts, and these people have stayed in various combat barracks before entering the martial arts school, and have rich combat experience, and these officers are equipped with young soldiers who are full of vigor. It is the army that Zhong Laosi dreams of.

The troops in front of them continued to march, and the leader of the team had already entered the camp gate, and the soldiers were still howling loudly, "...... A big river leads to my house, and I have a wife and a concubine, and I have a big ass......"

The farmers who watched the march next to him laughed, and Zhong Laosi laughed when he heard it. This song was adapted by Chen Xin, from a movie in his previous life, but the sad part in the middle was removed, and only the most catchy chorus was retained. The song has a bright rhythm. The song has a longing for home, and a vision for future life, for these soldiers, this song is more popular with soldiers than "Song of the Army" and "Man Jianghong". It is often used to regulate the feelings of soldiers during the march, and the lyrics of the lyrics give these soldiers the subconscious concept that joining the army is also home.

The training of soldiers in Dengzhou Town originated from the Qi Army, and during the period of the establishment of the Weihai Army, high-pressure and strict military discipline were mainly adopted. At that time, those slender men who came from poor backgrounds and were accustomed to hardship and hard work could bear it. After arriving at the Wendeng camp, in order to prepare for the battle against Kou Jiannu, who had entered the year of his own year. The intensity of training has increased dramatically, and the composition of the soldiers has become increasingly complex. There was a rebound in the face of harsh training and military discipline.

As a result, Chen Xin introduced the system of instructors to soothe the feelings of soldiers. Training methods are also constantly being improved to make them suitable for a wider range of troop sources, and at present, when selecting troop sources, physiognomy is only used as a reference for the selection of troop sources under the same conditions, rather than being eliminated by one vote as in the past. Although corporal punishment and scolding were still practiced in the army, there were many more ways for the instructors to soothe the soldiers' feelings, such as singing, ball games, etc., so this alternative military song was also allowed to be sung in unison during the march.

What Zhong Laosi hears now has been changed by this battalion itself, which sounds more interesting. The director of the military affairs department who sent Zhong Laosi next to him said: "Officer Zhong Ying, what you want to receive is this battalion, which is the establishment of a thousand headquarters. ”

Zhong Lao pointed to the team and said, "Is that them?" Lao Tzu likes it, whoever changes the song for them, call Lao Tzu to meet. ”

The director of the Military Affairs Department shook his head, "I don't know, Lord Zhong, you still have to meet the officers who have already arrived first, this group of guards battalion is different from the previous veterans, they are all teenagers who have little to do, and Lord Chen has high hopes, Lord Zhong, you must put more effort into it, and ...... in addition."

The main thing stopped, Zhong Laosi had already walked towards the camp gate, turned his head and said like a white man: "If there is a fart, let it go." ”

This principal worked with Zhong Laosi for a short time in Jinzhou, and when he heard it, he couldn't help but catch up and scolded: "You Zhong Laosi still has this temper, I just want to tell you, you are a battalion officer now, don't be so on the road all day long, control your mouth." The battalion officers are all dealing with whom, the commanders of the divisions and the commanders of other battalion heads, which ones are not nimble heads, if you offend them, you will not be like before, you will not eat some military sticks and be confined, besides, you have two or three thousand people under your command, everyone follows the example of you, what else can this battalion head do? ”

Zhong Laosi didn't scold this time, he glanced at the principal and nodded. He encountered Lu Chuanzong's incident when he was in martial arts, the atmosphere in martial arts was delicate at that time, Zhong Laosi also moved his head, he really felt that he couldn't do things like he used to be, otherwise he wouldn't be scolded for a few bad tempers.

"Thank you, brother, for reminding me." Zhong Laosi said after a while, "Li Donghua also came to tell me, I will take care of it, in short, I will not poke the basket for you." ”

Li Donghua is the director of the Military Affairs Department, and after the training of mobilized recruits is completed, they will be placed under the jurisdiction of the Military Affairs Department, and every time a new battalion is formed, it is the busiest time for the Military Affairs Department. Li Donghua was a training staff officer when he was training in Wendeng, and he knew Zhong Laosi's temper at that time, so he specially told Zhong Laosi before Zhong Laosi went to Pingdu.

The chief breathed a sigh of relief, the Military Affairs Department was a little uncertain about Chen Xin's appointment, Zhong Laosi has a set of fighting in war, and training is even more of a strength, but the only thing is to get into trouble. There are no big mistakes, no small mistakes. Now that Zhong Laosi has this understanding, he will at least be better than before.

The two took their entourage staff officers to the gate of the training base. Hand over the military badge and the military order of the military affairs department for registration, and salute after the registration of the duty post of the training base. Let Zhong Laosi and them enter the camp through the side door.

The chief officer of the base hurried to greet him, this person was a soldier in the first year of Chongzhen, who broke off in the battle of the four cities, and was placed in Tunpu as an instructor of the peasant and soldier company, and later served as the chief officer of the Wendeng training base for intensive training, and later changed to the chief officer of the Pingdu base. Zhong Laosi and he have long been acquainted, and they are very enthusiastic after meeting.

The chief officer of the base took everyone to the accommodation, and said to Zhong Laosi as he walked: "More than half of the officers of this guard thousand headquarters have arrived, and some have already taken over the battalion. There are still a small half who have not arrived, and most of these people who have not arrived are transferred from southern Liaoning or Henan, and the road is a little farther. ”

Zhong Laosi turned his head to the principal and said, "When will the few people I transferred from the fifth battalion dragoon arrive?" ”

The director thought about it: "I'm afraid it's soon, when Tangma reported it, he said that they needed half a month to hand over, and now Tangma has been back for more than ten days, and it is estimated that it will be almost there." ”

The three of them talked all the way, and when they arrived at the temporary accommodation area for officers, this is also a large room, but the width of the long kang occupied by each person is larger. There was a toilet next to every five large rooms, and the bathhouse was a little further away, and there were wells at intervals in the camp, and there were many officers queuing up to fetch water.

Zhong Laosi did not have a single room for the battalion-level chief. Instead, he walked in and chose a random place to put down his luggage, and a few officers resting inside were chatting when they saw the base chief come in. They all stood up to greet them. The principals had a wide range of people and introduced them one by one.

"This is Jiang Changyue, the military judge of the Xinjian Thousand Headquarters. Chongzhen was recruited from Tianjin Slender Man for three years and worked in Lord Chen's personal guard. Later, he was transferred to the Military Justice Division. It is also the old seniority of our Dengzhou Town, and there is nothing to say about the ability, and Judge Nie Hong was reluctant to release it at that time. ”

The chief said to Jiang Changyue again: "This is Zhong Caisheng, the new commander of the second battalion of the guards. ”

Jiang Changyue hurriedly saluted, Zhong Laosi returned the salute fairly, and the director wanted to introduce the next person, only to hear a voice in the corner of the barracks say: "He is the 'acting' battalion officer of the second battalion of the guards, not yet the official battalion officer, the next time Director Zou introduces you, don't forget the word 'generation'." ”

As soon as Zhong Laosi heard this voice, he suddenly laughed and walked a few steps, and saw a person slowly standing in the alley from the long kang with a smile on his face, it was Zhong Laosi's old acquaintance Zhao Xuan.

Zhong Laosi went up and patted the man on the shoulder and laughed: "Okay, you Zhao Xuan, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I will expose your brother's shortcomings as soon as we meet." Substitute or not, anyway, it's the same thing, Fan Shouye used to be a charge d'affaires, but now he hasn't taken the pronoun away. ”

Zhao Xuan said with a smile: "I said this to remind Lord Zhong that when the acting officer becomes a formal camp officer, you will also have to assess you, the acting officer, if you don't put away your stinky mouth, and let others rob it when the time comes, don't blame the brother I didn't remind you, now there are many young talents in Dengzhou Town, everyone is brave and diligent, if you Zhong Laosi don't take it easy, you will be stepped on one day." ”

"How can that?" Zhong Laosi suddenly stopped, pointed at Zhao Xuan, and said, "You are the ...... of the second battalion."

"Zhao Xuan, the second battalion instructor, has met Zhong Dai's battalion officer." Zhao Xuan put away his smile and formally saluted Zhong Laosi, each department in Dengzhou Town has a lot of authority, and there are also subordinates with vertical management in the combat unit, but the military commander is still ranked first, if a military order is issued, other instructors, military judges, chief of staff, quartermaster, and non-commissioned officer must obey to ensure the smoothness of the command system.

The chief next to him leaned over and said: "Instructor Zhao was appointed by Lord Chen, and he was specially transferred from Huguang to the Yangtze River into the canal all the way back, which shows that Lord Chen attaches great importance to the second battalion of the guards." ”

The chief officer of the training base also said: "Officer Zhao didn't even return home, so he came to the training base to report first, and also adapted some military songs for those recruits, and the soldiers liked it very much." ”

Zhong Laosi slapped his thigh, "I'll just say who can change it so well, it's great, let's two brothers have a drink." ”

After he finished speaking, he left the others and pulled Zhao Xuan outside, Zhao Xuan said as he walked: "I tell you, I don't drink alcohol, at most I can drink tea." ”

"Yes, yes." Zhong Laosi dragged Zhao Xuan all the way to the outside of the house before letting go, and said in a low voice, "It's good if you come back, Lao Tzu has a lot of questions in Dengzhou, and I don't dare to ask others, you talk to Lao Tzu." ”

Zhao Xuan looked around and said, "Zhong Laosi, I know what you want to ask, don't open this mouth, just rely on your tone, I won't tell you." ”

Zhong Laosi puffed out his eyes and glared at Zhao Xuan, Zhao Xuan sighed and said: "Really, don't ask, I don't know very well, besides, knowing too well is not good for you and me." You just have to remember to do your own thing, take care of your mouth, and that kind of thing will not fall on you. ”

Zhong Laosi closed his eyes and stood for a moment, then opened his eyes and said, "Then I don't ask, anyway, I recognize one, and I will listen to Master Chen at any time." ”

Zhao Xuan smiled, "That's right, let's go, let's go have tea and talk about your great achievements in Xuanda." ”

The two talked and laughed and walked towards the gate of the base, officers of their level can enter and exit the camp gate freely, unlike ordinary soldiers who also need to be issued by the chief officer or instructor to go out.

Zhong Lao said as he walked: "Let me ask something else, why is our second guard battalion stationed in Jiaozhou and Fengmeng Town, shouldn't the guard battalion be stationed in Dengzhou?" ”

"I also attended a meeting held by Lord Huang the day before yesterday before yesterday and heard some rumors, Lord Chen should strengthen the combat readiness of Qingzhou Mansion, and the two thousand headquarters in the third battalion should be changed to Qingzhou Mansion, and the total strength of Qingzhou Mansion is two battalions, and it is estimated that it will be deployed in the name of Qingzhou Regular Barracks and Guerrilla Battalions on the side of the river between Yidu and Gaojiagang, which can facilitate reinforcements in southern Liaoning in case of emergency. Geng Zhongming would be stationed directly in Gaoyuan County, only ten miles from the border of Jinan Province. Pingdu Prefecture will build a new battalion head, which will be organized as the sixth battalion, and Lushun will build two new battalion heads, which will be the seventh and eighth battalions respectively. Our second battalion of the guards is stationed near Mawan (Jiaozhou Bay), which can not only deal with the south of Qingzhou, but also transport troops by sea through Mawan, go north to Lushun to support southern Liaoning, and go south to deter and deter ......" Zhao Xuan was about to say that he was about to deter Huai'an Mansion in the south, but when the words came to his mouth, he felt that it was not appropriate, and he didn't know how to say it for a while.

When Zhong Laosi heard that it was inconvenient to say it, he hurriedly opened his mouth and asked, "Huang Side is here too?" ”

Zhao Xuan glared at him, "What Huang Side, just now I told you to control your mouth, you have to call Director Huang or Lord Huang." He had come here to attend the ceremony of the formation of the Second Guards Battalion, and I heard that Lord Chen might also come. Looking up and down, you don't want to live up to Lord Chen's high expectations. ”

Zhong Laosi patted his chest, "Don't dare to say anything else, no one is afraid of training and fighting, there are still a few old brothers coming in a few days, you all know, let's train this second battalion together." (To be continued......)
