Chapter VIII Drill the New Army

In the whirring wind, after the boxing practice, Wang Feng was already sweating profusely, and after a hasty wipe, he called everyone to the front of the tent, lined up in three rows from high to low, and asked: "Do you know which dynasty and which generation did the green camp's drill method originate?" ”

Li Erhu said uncertainly: "It seems to be the Ming Dynasty, right?" ”

"That's not right!" Lu Dayou retorted: "Everything changes and does not deviate from its sect, since the Qin and Han dynasties, it has always been like this!" ”

Wang Feng nodded and said: "Yes, after two thousand years of perfect development, the method of training the army has been fixed, as long as you are proficient in drills, it is not a problem to train an elite soldier, but the times are changing, in today's era, the development of ordnance is changing with each passing day, the old army, the old training method has not kept up with the development of the times, so, I will use your unprecedented method to train you into a new army, if anyone is not adaptable, then bite the teeth and give Lao Tzu to suffer, understand?" ”

"Understood!" Everyone hurriedly made a statement.

"Good!" Wang Feng said: "If you want to become a strong army, one is military discipline, the second is physique, the third is tactical literacy, and the fourth is the skilled use of ordnance, this fourth point, as far as I know, even the French army, the new army only shoots ten bullets before going into battle, we currently have no conditions, but we can strengthen the first three, now, start with military discipline, everyone reports the number in turn, Lu Dayou, start with you, you report one, you report two on the left, and so on, start!" ”

"One!" Lu Dayou's cowering voice came, and the second reported the number after looking at both sides, and the third reported the number after looking at the two, and the third reported actually needed Wang Feng's reminder, in short, the voice was uneven, high and low, neither rhythm nor momentum, even primary school students were not as good as physical education classes, after all, Wang Feng used modern military drill methods, and these people came from the Qing army, and their understanding of military training was still in the feudal era, and their ideology could not keep up at all.

"Do it again!" Wang Feng was furious!

"One, two, three" The second time was much better than the first time, but Wang Feng was still not satisfied, and in the fierce reprimand, it took ten times to barely meet his requirements!

"Good!" Wang Feng nodded and said: "Next, you first watch me do push-ups, the movements must be seen clearly, when it is your turn, if the movements are not up to standard, don't blame Lao Tzu for not recognizing people!" ”

Wang Feng lay down on the spot, demonstrating the standard practice of push-ups, he did fifty in one breath, his face did not change his color and did not panting, and he immediately won countless praises, but in fact, he knew that he was suffering, and he relied on super perseverance to support himself, so that he could pretend to be relaxed, after all, this body was too weak.

"Have you seen it all? It's your turn! Wang Feng got up and called out in a slightly hoarse voice.

Thirty-eight people fell to the ground one after another, one after another, it was quite easy at first, but after twenty or thirty, I realized that it was not easy for Wang Feng to do fifty in a row, and the two arms seemed to be filled with lead, and every rise and fall was extremely heavy, and correspondingly, the movements were also deformed.

"Bang!" Wang Feng kicked Li Erhu's ass hard, and said angrily: "It's not okay to do these few hits?" Where's the fuck your food? Ate in a dog's belly? ”

"Bang!" Another person was kicked in the buttocks: "Look at your arms are quite thick, what about your strength?" Why don't you grow strength just by growing meat? This doesn't count, do it again! ”

"Ouch, ouch!" With Wang Feng's scolding and kicking, the audience was full of bitterness, but Wang Feng completely substituted himself into the role of the iron-masked coach, screaming fiercely and beating harder! He only knows that he can't do kung fu if he doesn't fight, and in order to practice a good kung fu back then, he can't remember how many times he was beaten by his master!

Finally, after the fifty push-ups comparable to hell were done, everyone was out of breath, Wang Feng still had a little conscience, let them rest for a while, and then said: "Now go and prepare two cloth bags, each containing ten catties of soil, tie your calves and go out for a run with Lao Tzu!" ”

In an instant, everyone's faces turned green, but there was no way, Wang Feng himself went to prepare a sandbag, shared weal and woe with the soldiers, and took responsibility for himself, what else could they do?

After a while, everyone tied up the sandbags and followed Wang Feng towards the outside of the camp.

Just about to leave his station, "Stop, what are you doing?" "A clear sound came out of nowhere!

There were more than a dozen female soldiers running in front, all of them were pressing the handle of the knife, with a pretty face, the first person was Hong Xuanjiao, and there was a delicate sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl beside her, although Wang Feng didn't know him, but he could stand with Hong Xuanjiao, obviously his status would not be low.

Wang Feng stopped the team and explained: "It turned out to be Sister Xuanjiao, and it was a waste of time to be idle after eating, so I took the brothers to move their muscles!" ”

Hong Xuanjiao glanced at Wang Feng's bulging calves, and sneered: "Wang Feng, my Taiping Army has strict military discipline, and without an order, you must not leave the camp without permission, otherwise you will not be pardoned, do you know that as long as you take a step in the camp, it will be the result of the head falling to the ground?" ”

Wang Feng immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly thanked him: "Thanks to Sister Xuanjiao's reminder, Wang Feng will be rewarded one day." ”

"Hmm~~" Hong Xuanjiao's face eased a little and nodded, but the woman beside her couldn't help but say: "Today's combat has gradually been dominated by guns, what's the use of you tying sandbelts to practice brute force?" Qing Demon is shot, can you dodge? It's better to practice marksmanship! ”

"This is" Wang Feng looked at him puzzled.

Hong Xuanjiao introduced: "This is the sister of the East Royal Family, Yang Shuijiao, the female official of the East Palace. ”

"It turned out to be Miss Shuijiao, disrespectful, disrespectful!" Wang Feng arched his hand: "Although it is inevitable that guns and cannons will become the mainstream of combat, but the remarks of the old lady of Shui Jiao, please forgive Wang Feng for not daring to agree, no matter how sharp the guns are, they need people to manipulate, and people with flexible bodies and great strength can at least hold it steady, hit accurately, and can withstand greater shock force, in addition, our army's guns are backward, and the army is either arquebuses or flintlock guns, with short range and slow rate of fire, because of its smoothbore, the accurate head is difficult to control, and the Western devils have been fully equipped with rear-loading rifled guns"

"Stop!" Yang Shuijiao frowned slightly, and said, "This girl asked you to practice marksmanship, why are you pulling foreigners?" The enemy of our Taiping army is the Qing demon, and the well water of the foreigners does not interfere with the river water. ”

Wang Feng shook his head seriously: "People have no foresight, there must be near-term worries, the Qing demon has been peaceful for a long time, the dynasty is eroded, the army is scattered, not to be afraid, and the foreigners are mercenary, if the Qing demon in exchange for a traitorous treaty, the foreigners will pay to send troops to intervene, with the sharpness of its guns, our army may not have much chance of winning, so the foreigners are a big problem, we should rush to the foreigners before turning their faces, try to introduce the guns of the foreigners to improve the combat effectiveness, and at the same time, we must also recruit folk craftsmen on the one hand, crack the manufacturing method, on the other hand, It is to improve the technology of iron and steelmaking."

Wang Feng was talking about it, but Yang Shuijiao interrupted again: "Okay, okay, you're just a little pawn, what kind of tirade do you make?" This is not something you should ask, you just need to be loyal to the eldest brother and do a good job of the messenger assigned by the eldest brother, and the eldest brother will not treat you badly. ”
