The battle has been fought, and the follow-up work has been almost handled.

All the soldiers have also returned to their positions and begun to learn new skills, and nearly 100 warships, large and small, are busy on the river every day. The newly transferred Tigers and the newly recruited fishermen are training in different ways. More than 20,000 people crowded outside the small port of Mawei, so that the roar here was loud every day, and the shipyards a few miles away could hear it clearly. However, Geng Jingzhong was not at the training ground, but constantly patrolled the places where the disabled soldiers were recuperating.

Geng Jingzhong attached great importance to the disabled naval soldiers, and set aside a ward for them to recuperate and treat, equipped with the best conditions. Geng Jingzhong promised these soldiers that except for those who broke their legs and could not walk, they were given pensions to go home, and the others could enter the newly established teaching brigade to teach new recruits; Teach recruits skills and discipline so they can continue to serve the military. If you want to be discharged from the army, you can also get a pension and go home. No matter what, Geng Jingzhong will support them and will never abandon them.

"Shizi, I only have a broken arm, I can still hold a steel knife, I can still kill the enemy, I will definitely not disgrace the Tiger Army!" A soldier sitting on the edge of the bed with his left arm cut off in half said to Geng Jingzhong excitedly.

"Shizi, I can too, although I have a broken leg, but I can use crutches, I want to join the teaching team, I will train recruits!"

"Shizi, I can too!"

"Me too!"

There was a commotion in the whole ward, and every soldier petitioned to join the teaching brigade, not wanting to be discharged and go home, let alone being treated as a waste by others. They are still young, but they don't want to spend the rest of their lives in mediocrity.

Geng Jingzhong smiled slightly, looking at these soldiers in the ward, he was very pleased, none of them had lost their fighting spirit.

"Brothers, don't worry!" Geng Jingzhong motioned to the soldiers in the ward to be quiet: "Don't you still believe what I said?" Everyone here to recuperate with peace of mind, and it is your top priority to recover your body first, and I still count on your help! I don't recuperate well, my body collapses, but I can't do anything. ”

Such a scene has been staged in every ward in the past few days, and it is not Geng Jingzhong's deliberate show. Coming from later generations, he has received so many years of modern education, and his heart is still full of love. Besides, this is also the case in every Anti-Japanese War TV series. It took Geng Jingzhong more than two days to visit these dozens of wards, and the effect was obvious, and the soldiers' feelings were much better, which not only made their bodies recover faster, but also made the soldiers more cordial and respectful to him.

Geng Jingzhong's words were put into action as they were, and the Mawei Navy transformed from the former Tiger Army needless to say, a heart had already been placed in the Geng family. When the news spread outside, the new sailors and the newly recruited fishermen were deeply moved. Since ancient times, there has been a general who has done this to his soldiers. Treat the crippled soldiers as a burden, try your best to get rid of them, and give a little pension, who will support you for a lifetime! His Royal Highness the prince is very humane, and the people here are also very welcoming, feeling that this is not only a good place for gold panning, but also an excellent place to settle down. It is estimated that most people will not want to leave in the future.

As soon as he finished condolences to the wounded soldiers, Geng Jingzhong immediately ordered all the soldiers who participated in the last battle to take the lead in the battle summary of the battle, and present it at the summary meeting in the evening, and everyone discussed it together. In the past few days in the ward, seeing so many seriously wounded and thinking of so many soldiers who died in battle, Geng Jingzhong felt that the losses were too great. The bandits who swept away 20,000 or 30,000 casualties only suffered 2,000 casualties, and they dealt with the >> of the Liang < should be Γ and should be and the fat of the Shan.

In the evening, the soldiers were tired after a day of training. But at this moment, more than 3,000 soldiers stood solemnly in the school yard and listened to every summary.

During the day, each hundred households take the lead, and according to the last battle, let each soldier summarize by himself, and then they record it. These thirty hundred households summarized in detail the problems discovered by the soldiers during the battle. After dinner, all of them gathered in the school yard and reported on the stage one by one. Around the school grounds, braziers fell one after another, and the red flames illuminated a piece.

I don't know if I don't summarize, I'm really shocked when I summarize, there are many more problems in this battle than when I suppressed bandits. After all, the Mawei Navy has just been transformed from the Tiger Army, and many gunners have just been trained, and many details are not in place. This is the first battle of the Navy, and there are many problems exposed, which must now be summed up one by one so that they can be improved in the future.

This battle for the horsetail can basically be divided into two parts. Part of it was an artillery battle with pirates, and the other was boarding a ship.

Large-scale artillery battles, neither the Tigers nor the current Mawei Navy, have been experienced before. There are a thousand cannons on both sides combined, and this power is not ordinary scary. Dense shells came over, saying that they were not afraid, but they were afraid that no one would believe it. Thirty hundred households took the stage to speak, and most of what they mentioned was about artillery battles.

For large-scale artillery battles, the soldiers experienced it for the first time. Many people were panicked during the bombardment, but fortunately, the will they had trained for a long time to persevere. In this way, in the case of being at a loss, many soldiers made mistakes, which greatly reduced the firing speed, and the hit was inaccurate, and many soldiers were hit by artillery. If it weren't for the powerful Hongyi cannon from above, the soldiers below would probably have collapsed. In addition, the newly trained gunners were not yet skilled; This is not something that can be practiced in a short period of time, and it will be necessary to strengthen the practice in the future.

The second important issue is hand-to-hand combat on boarding. Except for the five big ships on Geng Jingzhong's side, all the others are fishing boats, and there are few merchant ships. These ships are small, and when attacking the pirate ships, they attack from the back, and it takes a lot of effort to board the ships. In the process, there are not a few soldiers who are cut down by pirates. If it weren't for the fact that some musketeers did not board the ships to fight, but stood on fishing boats and designed to suppress the pirates, the navy would definitely have to pay a greater price.

"Okay, everyone has heard it, what the thirty hundred households said just now, I sum it up to one thing, the training time is too short, and the skills are not familiar. I know that the Navy has just been formed, and there are many things that we have never seen before, which is why the brothers have lost so much this time! It's still the same sentence I said at the beginning of the year, sweat more in peacetime, and bleed less in wartime! The more you practice, the more you will become familiar with the skills. If our artillery could have done a good job, the pirate ships would have been taken down long ago. Therefore, from tomorrow onwards, the brothers will train more seriously and master the skills of the navy as much as possible. The Zheng family's wave of sailors was wiped out by us, but don't forget, they still have several such fleets! We can't afford to slack off for a moment! ”

Geng Jingzhong paused, looked at the soldiers below, and saw that they were still listening intently, and did not get impatient, so he continued: "Regarding this battle, I am very happy that the brothers were able to withstand the cannons of the pirates. At that time, I was watching you on the hillside over there, and to be honest, I was scared. If it were me below, I wouldn't have done better than you. You're so much calmer than I am. I'm so proud of you! ”

"Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!"

All the soldiers shouted three times at once, and their morale was very high. After Geng Jingzhong finished speaking, he walked to the side and signaled to Wang Zhenbang to let him continue.

Wang Zhenbang stepped forward and said loudly: "Brothers, I took a look before I came, and everyone's merits have been counted and verified, and all of them have been recorded in detail in the military merit book. As he spoke, he raised the military merit book in his hand and shook it, "According to the orders of the prince, tomorrow Commander Huang and I will be promoted and rewarded according to your military merits." You can check it on the military merit column tomorrow. If there is any objection, you can appeal to the respective officer. For the brothers who are about to be promoted, I am here to congratulate you all in advance! That's all for today's summary meeting, disbanded! ”

"Die for the Son!"

"Die for the Son!"

The soldiers did not immediately return to the camp, one by one completely forgetting their fatigue and talking happily. French Napoleon said that a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier, and there is no soldier who does not like to be promoted and make a fortune, not to mention relying on real recorded military exploits, which has a lot of face. After waiting for more than ten days, the soldiers finally heard the news, how could they not be excited.

According to the common open column of government affairs in later generations, Geng Jingzhong ordered people to open up a column on military merits, which Geng Jingzhong only thought of recently. Right next to the barracks dormitory, a row of wooden railings was erected. Every soldier can see a detailed record of his or her merits, such as a certain year, a certain month, a certain day, how many enemies a certain person killed, and so on. Of course, there are no military merits in peacetime, and the ranking of the training results of each battalion can be pasted on it, and it can also motivate the soldiers to train hard, and they cannot be compared with others. Now that the war has just ended, those who have made meritorious contributions will definitely be on the list, and they will be envied by the soldiers of the whole army, which is not only to be promoted and rich, but also to be an honor of a soldier.

It is conceivable that as soon as the military merit column is released, it will inevitably stimulate all soldiers to work harder.
