A storm of grabbing food turned into an impressive enlistment education for the new soldiers. That night, when Hao Tong said the word "dang chop", all the people subconsciously shrank their necks, feeling that the bright ghost head knife was behind their heads.

The behavior of the Xiong brothers snatching food is not strange to the new soldiers. When I was in the countryside, it was normal for families to grab water, fertilizer, and prey found in the woods. In the case of limited resources, the first strike is stronger, which is also a survival philosophy.

But the punishment that followed made Zhongjin suddenly realize that he had entered the barracks, which was a place with royal law. If you are not careful, you have violated military law, and it is a matter of losing your head.

The earnest meeting of each small flag was very good, and everyone introduced their family situation, living habits, etc., and agreed with each other that in the future, they would live and die together and be like brothers, and that such a vulgar thing as snatching food would never happen again. After the meeting, the other soldiers went back to sleep in the barracks, while the Xiong brothers, He Bencheng, Yu Jun and the six soldiers who had fought remained in the confinement room, starving for 12 hours before they were released.

When they were released, they saw that the other soldiers of the third small banner were waiting at the door of the confinement room, and brought them a hot meal as soon as possible, and Xiong Minfan, who was straight, had to kneel down for the crowd again, and patted his chest and swore that if he went to the battlefield to fight in the future, he would give his life to protect the safety of all his companions in the entire small banner. Of course, with his big-shouldered and round-waisted physique, he is still a bit qualified to say such things.

Regular training began. According to the results of Su Hao's discussion with Hao Tong and Deng Kui, the training of the soldiers was divided into two aspects: civil and military. Hao Tong and Deng Kui are in charge of the martial arts, which is nothing more than the queue, formation, assassination, fighting and other contents in the army. According to Su Hao's request, another long-distance run was added, which was a normal run at first, and then gradually changed to a weight-bearing run, and the distance of running increased from 5 li to 10 li and 20 li.

There is generally very little long-distance running training in the army, and a very important reason is that the nutrition of the non-commissioned officers is insufficient, and this kind of extremely physically demanding exercise is difficult for the non-commissioned officers to bear. But in Su Hao's camp, this obstacle did not exist, and a sufficient amount of rice and meat dishes provided sufficient energy for the soldiers. After a few months of training, the soldiers not only greatly improved their athletic ability, but also jumped up a lot in height, at least more than 1.75 meters tall, which was already the standard of a big man back then.

The study of culture is the responsibility of Ma Yu and other college students. According to the training manual compiled by Su Hao, the soldiers started to learn Arabic numerals, and gradually mastered the four arithmetic, simple geometric principles, trigonometric function operations, and so on. It is not an easy task to get a group of semi-literate people who have never been exposed to mathematics to learn this knowledge. Su Hao has only one trick, and that is the sea tactics.

All the soldiers do their homework in their spare time, and they have to memorize the multiplication formulas well; Addition and subtraction within three digits are not allowed to be calculated by hand, and must be completed by mental arithmetic; A simple algorithm that uses a sinusoidal function to find the length of an hypotenuse requires 100 repeated exercises. Training in the army has such benefits, if you can't do the questions, you just wait for the baton, and if you don't want to be beaten, you just try your best to do the questions.

Of course, it's not just the students who suffer from the sea of questions, but the teachers are also guilty. Ma Yu and others changed their homework and tutored students, and explained a formula hundreds of times, and they were so tired that their mouths were crooked, and they complained that it was too difficult to earn Su Hao's telescope.

Su Hao himself also taught in the barracks, and also participated in the military training of the soldiers. After a period of training, his physique has also improved significantly, and he is no longer the powerless one he was a few months ago. The martial arts that he had learned from the veterans in the geological team in his previous life had now been re-selected, and even in front of a military master like Deng Kui, Su Hao had been able to walk more than a dozen rounds.

Fang Shu and the thousands of households in Xiaogang have also come to inspect Su Hao's 100 households, and they are noncommittal about Su Hao's training methods. They also all knew that this team was commissioned by the Yunnan border army to train, and Deng Zilong's side was silent, and they didn't bother to point fingers.

When Fang Shu came, he also brought instructions from Zhang Hong, the head of the Jiangxi Metropolitan Division, of course, this kind of instruction is nothing more than some clichés, requiring the soldiers to train hard and serve the imperial court, etc., and there is no nutrition. However, Zhang Hong gave the small team in Su Hao's 100 households a nickname, called "Survey Camp", which made Su Hao, Hao Tong and others feel quite appropriate.

The days of soldier training are long and boring, Su Hao wears many hats, in addition to training, there are also things to do in the county government and the commercial house, so he goes back and forth between the county seat and the barracks every day, tired and happy.

After several run-ins, Hao Qing's Hao's workshop signed a cooperation agreement with Su's firm, and the two sides jointly developed various new technologies and new products, Su Hao was responsible for providing ideas, Hao's father and son were responsible for experimentation and production, and the proceeds were equally distributed by both parties.

Su Hao has a belly of scientific and technological knowledge in the future, but in order to transform this knowledge into actual productivity, he must also have the ability to do things. The development of some products requires repeated experiments, and Su Hao neither has so much time nor such hands-on ability. Hao's father and son are both skilled craftsmen, which just makes up for Su Hao's shortcomings in hands-on ability.

Since the successful trial production of sodium-based glass and the sale of telescopes, the worship of Su Hao by Hao's father and son has been like the water of the Ganjiang River. The size of Hao's workshop has increased by more than 10 times, and a large number of craftsmen have been hired to work on the telescope.

The principle of the telescope is not complicated, so it doesn't matter if it's a secret or not. The biggest obstacle to other imitation telescopes is the source and cost of transparent glass. Hao's workshop can reduce the cost of telescopes, there are several tricks, one is to use soda ash and limestone instead of saltpeter and sheep's horn, and the other is to replace the traditional very mysterious "glazed stone" with quartz stone common in the mountains, these know-how have now become the core secrets of Hao's workshop, Hao Yizong told Su Hao to tell him not to leak to others.

Su Hao also knew that he had been a little too reckless in the past, so he accepted Hao Yizong's advice and only used the techniques in Hao's workshop. At this time, Su Hao came to Hao's workshop again, because Hao Qing sent a letter to him saying that the crucible steel that Su Hao asked Hao Qing to refine last time had a result.

"Su Baihu, the steelmaking method you taught Xiao Jin seems to be a little inappropriate."

As soon as Su Hao and Hao Qing met, Hao Qing said to Su Hao with a sad face. As a craftsman, Hao Qing is still used to putting himself in a more humble position, so he still calls Su Hao's official position, and considers himself a small entry, Su Hao corrected it a few times to no avail, so he had to let him.

"How?" Su Hao asked.

Hao Qing took over a piece of smelted billet and said to Su Hao: "Su Baihu, this is the steel that Xiao Jin smelted in a crucible according to the method you said, and the kind of stone you gave Xiao Jin is added to it, what kind of manganese ore do you say it's called?" ”

"Oh, it's already refined?" Su Hao said in surprise, he took the billet in Hao Qing's hand and looked up and down. If he's not mistaken, this should be the earliest manganese steel ever smelted in the class, right?

Manganese steel is a high-strength steel that is resistant to impact, extrusion, and wear, and is often used in later generations to make components such as bulldozer shovels, bearing balls, etc., which need to withstand harsh working conditions. Manganese steel also has a very good property, that is, when heated to orange-red, it becomes very soft and easy to process, which is also very important in the era of lack of machining equipment.

During his field investigation, Su Hao stumbled upon a small manganese deposit, so he ordered to mine some manganese ore and transport it back for later use. A few years ago, Su Hao asked Hao Qing to make a big crucible to try manganese steel, but he didn't expect Hao Qing to smelt manganese steel so quickly.

"Is there anything wrong with this steel?" Su Hao asked.

Hao Qing smiled bitterly: "After I added that manganese ore to the steel, I refined such a thing. You look at it like a piece of steel, but in reality, it's not much stronger than adobe. ”

Su Hao was surprised: "What are you talking about? ”

Hao Qing took the piece of steel, rested it on an anvil, then took a hammer and lightly knocked it on the piece of manganese steel. Su Hao saw that the piece of manganese steel was really cracked crisply as Hao Qing said.

"How so?" Su Hao was shocked, "You can't be mistaken, right?" ”

Hao Qing said: "I did it exactly according to the method you said, when I was making steel, I added a little bit of this stone, you see, the stone you brought is still on the side, I won't take it wrong." ”

Su Hao walked over to a few pieces of manganese ore piled aside, picked up a piece, and looked at it carefully. That's right, this must be soft manganese ore, tetragonal, single crystal is columnar or granular, black, semi-metallic luster, can stain hands, cleavage parallel and complete, density of about 4.5. If he even admits that such an ore is wrong, don't mix it up in geological circles.

"That's right." Su Hao muttered, he suddenly remembered something, glared at Hao Qing and said, "Old Hao, you just said that you added 'a little' this stone?" ”

"yes." Hao Qing said, "I was afraid that something would be wrong with adding it, so I didn't dare to put more." ”

"I didn't dare to put more, how much did I put it?" Su Hao asked.

Hao Qing gestured with his hand and said, "Probably...... Less than half of it. ”

"I'm dizzy!" Su Hao patted his head with his hand, and said in annoyance, "I blame you for not making it clear to you, to refine this manganese steel, the proportion of this manganese must reach at least one and a half percent." ”
