Chapter 214: Madness
The south camp is backed by the towering southern foot of the Lion Rock, the terrain is high in the north and low in the south, and it is a step-like layout.
The three-entry lobby of the General's Mansion is located on the first level of steps, and in turn, there are the middle courtyard of the General's Mansion on the second level of the steps and the backyard of the third level of the steps.
Zhu Daolin, who had not long since returned, was very surprised when he heard the term "new army" for the first time, and after carefully questioning several instructors, he learned that after returning seven days ago with the commanders of Wei Guogong, Marquis Longping, Xin Chengbo, and other commanders who had come to observe the selection of soldiers, the news of Zhu Daolin's formation of an all-firearms new army was disseminated.
With the lifting of martial law, many citizens who like to watch the excitement have run to the camp to watch for a long time, and hundreds of people squat outside the camp every day, and the rain is not heavy.
In order to avoid attracting too much suspicion, Zhu Daolin did not immediately transport a large number of military supplies, and although the sky was gloomy and drizzling, the temperature gradually warmed up.
Without the frost and the biting north wind, the recruits in thin clothes and straw sandals did not shiver much, but the number of colds and flu increased.
Zhu Daolin had no choice but to let Yuhu return to Ziyang Temple, and asked Master and Uncle to send a few brothers who were about to leave the school to help with treatment, continue to grit their teeth, and be ruthless, so that more than 10,000 recruits can boil their eggs for a few more days.
The forty-two-year-old chief instructor, Li Yiliang, is a tall and long-armed, unsmiling horse army leader, who has been riding horses for many years and controlling horses, which makes his lap legs very conspicuous, and he can't help but shake his head when Zhu Daolin asks about studying military regulations and regulations:
"Few of the 12,000 recruits are literate, and after seven days of training, many of them can't tell the difference between left and right feet, let alone memorize military regulations...... According to the reports and statistics of the officers of each team, at least half of them could not recite, and it is estimated that they will have to pull their ears and force them for several days. ”
Zhu Daolin was annoyed. Knowing that the instructors saw that the weather was bad, the inertia on their bodies had attacked, but it was not easy to blame this senior in the army who was only a hundred household officers, so he thought about it a little and stood up with a smile: "Order, the whole army gathers." ”
Li Yiliang immediately realized that this evil star was going crazy, and nodded helplessly and strode out. When I got outside, I saw that the rain was getting denser and denser, and the small waterhole in front of me was rippling in the dense light raindrops, and I wanted to go back to persuade Zhu Daolin but I didn't dare, so I had to sigh and walk quickly into the rain curtain.
Zhu Daolin sorted out the military attache uniform on his body, touched the golden leopard on the patch on his chest, shook his head and shouted loudly: "Star officer-"
"Here!"
The young star general flag flew in from outside the door, came to Zhu Daolin and stood solemnly with his legs.
Zhu Daolin nodded slightly: "Did you send the customized tin horn?" ”
The young general flag replied loudly: "150 were sent the afternoon before yesterday, and 10 of them were three-foot-long trumpets. Another 140 one-foot-eight trumpets have been distributed to the teams. ”
"Very well, go get a loudspeaker, come with me."
After Zhu Daolin finished speaking, he put on a black gauze hat, put on his hands behind his back, and walked out of the main hall gate unhurriedly.
Before he reached the middle of the courtyard, he heard the copper whistle sounding, the corners of Zhu Daolin's mouth curled slightly, and he accelerated his pace, and soon came to the empty review stand full of sludge.
in the playground. 120 hundred-man teams began to assemble in a chaotic manner.
I don't know where to get the colorful flags, but none of them can be unfurled in the light rain. We could only rely on the temporary officers of each team to blow the brass whistle desperately, but the result became more and more chaotic, and it took more than ten minutes to barely sort out the crooked formation.
"I heard that the copper whistle we are using now was designed by the general himself?" Li Yiliang, the chief instructor whose armor was full of water droplets, came to Zhu Daolin's side, and like Zhu Daolin, he didn't wear a hat or a robe.
"That's right, it was made by a group of skilled craftsmen in the shipbuilding workshop of Hushan Manor. It is divided into two kinds of military and civilian, the shape of the civilian is more round, and the military is more slender, so the voice is also much sharper, and I heard that the two batches produced later have been marked with the mark of "Tiger Mountain". Do you think it's easy to use? Zhu Daolin asked as easily as chatting.
Li Yiliang grinned: "It's good, the sound can be heard for two miles, if it is blown in the ear, it will be guaranteed that no other sound can be heard for half an hour." ”
Zhu Daolin smiled slightly, and glanced at the two deputy chief instructors who came hurriedly behind Li Yiliang, and the two deputy chief instructors hurriedly took off the hat on their heads and threw them aside, their faces full of embarrassment.
Zhu Daolin turned his head, took out a special waterproof pocket watch, glanced at the time, took it back casually, and continued to look at the 12 squares that had seen the shape of the audience, and felt that it was almost over, so he lifted the iron horn on the side, tore open his loud voice and began to go crazy: "All those who wear clothes and hats are thrown to Lao Tzu!" ”
The iron horn is really easy to use, and Zhu Daolin's loud voice is far away, and the Lion Rock standing tall behind him reflects the echo, and no matter how thick the rain curtain can't stop it, it is quite a bit of a surging momentum that spreads for ten miles, and the officers in front of the team wearing robes and hats are all startled, and they are busy taking off their hats, taking off their coats, and throwing them in the mud.
Zhu Daolin waited for the last officer to take off his coat, and then he raised the iron horn and continued to shout: "Today's gathering, it will take twenty minutes before and after, that is, a quarter of an hour to add a stick of incense...... Some people may say that it is raining, we are all new recruits, and we have only been training for a few days, so it would be nice to be able to do this! ”
"Okay, this time I don't blame you, I don't blame anyone, just like you, if you want to blame, blame this thief! However, for seven days, you still can't recite thirty military orders, how can you blame the rain? Is it to blame the thief on top of your head? ”
"Tell me, who else can you blame?"
The audience was silent and solemn.
Many of the officers and deputies in front of the team began to tremble slightly, and they all knew that the person on the stage who was braving the rain and holding various iron horns was not only the boss, but also the killer who everyone feared! Wu Laoliu, the instructor of the artillery team who was standing straight behind him and was drenched in the rain with him, was ordered by him to be beaten ten times and his injuries were not healed.
After a minute-long silence, Zhu Daolin, under the gaze of thousands of pairs of frightened eyes, raised the iron horn again and shouted loudly:
"Now, Lao Tzu is standing here with you, watching you recite thirty military law and military orders, as long as one person in each team can't recite it, everyone has to accompany him here, Lao Tzu will stand here until all of you bitches are familiar with it one by one! Where is the Judge of the General Army-"
"The subordinates are here!"
The jade tiger under the side of the high platform hurriedly ran to the center of the front of the stage and stood solemnly to listen to the order.
Zhu Daolin viciously ordered at the tin loudspeaker: "All the law enforcement teams are on horseback, start a vigilance, whoever dares to escape from the team, no matter whether he is an official or a soldier, no matter what his origin is, cut off his head for me immediately!" ”
"Yes!"
Yuhu shuddered, quickly ran to his 100-person law enforcement team, led his 100 people to the northwest horse circle, took out the war horses and rode up, and after a little team, they rushed to the periphery of the school field, according to the training requirements of the law enforcement team, they scattered in groups of two, and quickly opened up the distance, blocking behind the 13,000 officers and soldiers in a semicircle.
