Chapter 15: Chaos
On the school ground, a group of patrolmen were naked, shouting passwords in their mouths, sweating like rain, and practicing their stabbing skills.
On the other side, a group of inspectors ran around the teaching ground, their faces dark, sweating, and silent.
The best time, the hardest training!
It's just that, despite the rules, the number is still a little smaller, only about forty and less than fifty.
After more than a month of training, under the careful teaching of Wang Heyao and the service of sticks, these patrolmen who participated in the training were basically familiar with the queue and had begun to practice the art of stabbing guns.
Progress varies, and some have even trained guns and artillery.
In addition to swords, guns, feather arrows, arquebuses, mountain splitting cannons, and Franc machine guns, although the number of mountain splitting cannons and Buddha cannons is small, it is indeed not absent.
On the school ground, Wang Heyao was sweating profusely, leading by example, standing in front of the team of the inspectors and leading the inspectors to train.
"Brothers, sing! Facing the ...... with pride One swing! โ
At the end of an hour's stabbing technique, Wang Heyao shouted loudly and took the lead in singing.
"Pride in the face of ten thousand waves
The blood is like the red sun
Courage is like iron and bones are like steel
Thousands of minds and long visions
I work hard to be a good man
โฆโฆโฆโฆโ
The patrolmen were armed with red tassel guns, raised their heads and chests, and sang together.
Of course, the Zhejiang Yuyao dialect is used.
It's all young people, and there's nothing to be embarrassed about. Moreover, this song was widely circulated in later generations, and its popularity is undoubted.
"Stand upright, take a break!"
Looking at the sweaty appearance of the people in front of him, Wang Heyao was serious and began to preach again.
"Brothers, sweat more in peacetime and bleed less in wartime. If you have practiced the spear technique, even an ordinary martial arts master is no problem. If you learn your skills well, you can protect your family, relatives and friends. To put it mildly, the meritorious service of killing thieves and future ambitions are all on this weekday training ground! Do you understand? โ
"Understood!"
The people who echoed it were sparse.
"Call me Instructor! Be louder, I can't hear it! โ
"Understood, instructor!"
"Louder!"
"Understood, instructor!"
At the end of the training, the patrolmen dispersed one after another and went to various passes to change their garrisons.
"Old five, there are only about four people who are following the practice, and it seems that the number of people is a little small."
Zheng Siming's eyes couldn't hide his worry.
"Big brother, it's only been more than a month, be patient."
Wang Heyao comforted Zheng Siming.
Forty or fifty, almost half of them, which is already good.
"It's not Li Biao's people, they take the lead in not practicing, and they threaten others, so there are so few talents!"
Zhao Guohao's face was full of righteous indignation.
"Forget it! There were more than 40 people who followed the drill, which was already very good. Among the rest of these people, I don't like a few of them! โ
Wang Heyao had no heart and no lungs, and laughed.
"In addition to spearmanship, horseback riding, firearms, fighting. The use of firearms such as cannons, these skills must be learned, but it is not simple! โ
Zheng Siming glanced at Wang Heyao and was puzzled.
"Old Five, you have done your best to train so many officers. Aren't you afraid that one day, they will be your enemy? โ
"No matter what kind of skill, you have to have a certain spirit to show its power. Even if I teach them all the training techniques and drills, it will only be the same, not the god, and it will not be exactly the same. โ
Wang Heyao smiled coldly, and suddenly the topic changed.
"Fourth, it's time for you to be on duty."
"Fifth brother, call me fourth brother!"
Zhao Guohao's expression seemed to be a little dissatisfied.
"Fourth brother!"
Wang and Yao screamed affectionately, and then straightened their faces.
"Fourth brother, please go to the city wall to guard."
"Old Five, it's so hot, you're retaliating!"
Zhao Guohao shook his head.
In fact, after he has lost weight now, he is no longer as afraid of heat as he used to be.
"Old Five, I'm really curious, where did you learn these things? Don't tell me, I learned it from Huang Baijia, he doesn't have that ability! โ
Zheng Siming put his puzzled gaze on Wang Heyao.
"Okay, I'll not hide it from you!"
Wang and Yao's heads began to grow bigger.
"A few years ago, I was with Father Lรณpez, and I read a book on the art of war by Tessie, called Hamlet, which was about how to train soldiers and so on. I didn't expect it to be useful! โ
It turned out to be "Tessie's magnum opus"!
Zheng Siming and Zhao Guohao both suddenly realized.
No wonder the training method is different from that of the Green Battalion, it turns out that it is from the distant Tessie.
"Old Five, today's weather is warm enough!"
Zhao Guohao shook his head and made a bitter face.
It's summer, and the walls are exposed to the sun, and the heat is worrying. However, their brothers took turns on duty, and he couldn't refuse.
Zhao Guohao went up to the city wall, and before he could be on duty for long, Wang Heyao and Zheng Siming followed.
"What, reluctant to me?"
Zhao Guohao is not smiling, holding a spear, dark and strong, dragon spirit and tiger fierce, and the previous big fat man is like two people.
"I can't bear you, see if you're lazy."
Wang Heyao is serious nonsense.
"Big brother, have you noticed that there seem to be more people who have dragged their families through the checkpoint recently?"
Wang Heyao looked at the chaotic crowd in front of the western checkpoint and frowned.
The Dalanshan Inspection Department is in charge of the water and land arteries of the nearby arteries, and many people from southern Zhejiang have to pass through here. Originally, it was not strange, but in recent days, there have been a lot of people from the south to the north.
"I've been there a few times recently, saying that Geng Jingzhong's subordinates were blocked from going north. The imperial court sent people from all walks of life into Zhejiang, and the leader was Prince Kang Jieshu, who said that he was the general of Pingnan. And the new governor of Zhejiang, Li Zhifang, has just gone to Quzhou. The two sides come and go, fighting in the dark. The people had no choice but to flee north. โ
Zheng Siming said in a low voice, his brows furrowed.
Wang Heyao nodded, and his gaze turned to Zhao Guohao.
"Fourth brother, go over and ask the fleeing people to see what the situation is?"
Zhao Guohao answered and ran down.
"In this way, the heroes of Siming Mountain are not having a good time?"
Since the Qing army and the Geng army are inseparable, then, the local green battalion has free up their hands, and the Siming Mountain is heroic, and I am afraid that life will be difficult.
"That's how it should be! When I went, I heard from the second master that Geng Jingzhong sent people to Siming Mountain to discuss fighting the Qing Dynasty together. โ
Zheng Siming shook his head, his eyes full of doubt.
"The brothers of Dalan Mountain Cottage, why did they get together with Geng Jingzhong? I really can't figure it out! โ
Wang Heyao shook his head secretly. Dalanshan cottage Hu Shuangqi and these people are weak, Geng Jingzhong threw an olive branch, knowing that it was poisonous, and had to take it.
Poisoning can also be treated, once Geng Jingzhong is defeated, everything will be over.
"Geng Jingzhong and the Qing court, there is no good thing! Our brothers are weak, what should we do? โ
Wang Heyao was silent, and Zheng Siming became anxious.
"Big brother, you have no money and no power, you can only take advantage of the situation and wait for the opportunity to move."
Wang Heyao smiled, very helpless.
"When will we be able to have our own team?"
Zheng Siming shook his head and muttered to himself.
"Big brother, you're thinking too much. Have you ever heard of a spark that can start a prairie fire? โ
A spark can start a prairie fire!
Zheng Siming's heart trembled.
In terms of mental toughness, his eldest brother is far inferior to Wang Heyao.
"I regret it a little now, I regret coming to the Dalanshan Inspection Division."
Wang Heyao said softly.
The Dalanshan Inspection Division, just these 100 people, can't recruit troops. When I came, I felt like I was trapped inside.
"Old Five, you're wrong about that. Brothers, have you seen these changes? It's all your credit. You have taught your brothers, and if you do things in the future, you will not be busy alone. This is called, a spark can start a prairie fire. That's what you said! โ
Zheng Siming comforted Wang Heyao.
Wang Heyao was stunned and laughed.
"Old Five, in addition to queues, stabbing techniques, fighting techniques, and all kinds of military knowledge, I think what you want to teach is more than that."
Zheng Siming frowned slightly, thoughtful.
The Qing Dynasty strictly forbade Han people to practice martial arts, forbade the common people to wear swords and walk, forbade the common people to fight, and forbade the folk ring to compete in the ring. This also made the martial style of the folk Han people weak, or even disappeared.
"It's martial arts, and ...... Nationalism and patriotism complement each other! โ
Wang Heyao thought for a moment and blurted out.
"Nationalism, patriotism?"
Zheng Siming's eyes were confused.
"Nationalism, the idea and behavior of safeguarding the interests and dignity of one's own nation. To let people know, who are they and why are they martial? China has great etiquette, so it is called Xia; There is the beauty of uniforms, which is called Hua. But how many people in the world still know this? How many are proud to be Han Chinese? โ
Facing his good brother, Wang Heyao had no reservations.
"The Jiashen Change, Manchuria entered the customs, for the selfish interests of his family, promoted the politics of foolishness, ruthlessly killed and destroyed my people with lofty ideals, shaved their hair and made it easy to obey the literary prison, and their evil deeds were notorious, and it was difficult to write about them, how could it be the "country" of our Han people? โ
"What should you and my brother do?"
Zheng Siming nodded again and again, and his eyes lit up.
"Raise the army and build the country, wash away the bloody flesh, drive out the Tartars, restore China, and restore the clothes of our Han people. In addition to cultivating the martial spirit of our Han people, we must also let them know that they are Han people and be proud of being Han people! โ
I don't know what nationality I am, I don't take pride in my own nation, I am obedient, and no matter how good my kung fu is, I am just like Wu Sangui and Hong Chengchou, traitors and shameless.
"Old Five, you're right!"
Zheng Siming's face was red, and his spirits were lifted.
"The Han nationality is the main body of our China, if the Han people are strong, then China will be strong, and if the Han people are revived, then China will be rejuvenated. But ......"
Zheng Siming raised his head, still puzzled in his eyes.
"Lao Wang, you still haven't told me, what should we do?"
"Our strength is too weak, we can't act rashly now, we have to take it step by step. In fact, it is very simple to do it, that is, to create a newspaper to promote the Huayi debate, nationalism, and nationalism. โ
Wang Heyao looked at the dumbfounded Zheng Siming and smiled slightly.
"Big brother, to do this, you have to lie down and take precautions, we have a lot to do!"
"Report ...... Paper? Country...... Ism? Old...... Fifth, are you still ...... Is there anything I don't know? โ
Zheng Siming stared at Wang Heyao and stammered out.
Wang Heyao smiled and didn't say anything.
His personal literary talent is limited, and these individualistic theories have to find a knowledgeable Confucian runpen.
However, this is all in the future, and the main thing at present is to build momentum and train the first batch of modern instructors in Chinese history.
"Big brother, fifth brother, the people said that Geng Jingzhong's army has reached Yiwu County and Zhuji County, and the people in southern Zhejiang have no choice but to flee to Shaoxing Mansion and Ningbo Mansion!"
Zhao Guohao came back and shouted loudly under the city wall.
Zhuji County is already in the territory of Shaoxing Prefecture, only about 200 miles away from Yuyao. I didn't expect Geng Jingzhong's army to be so fierce.
It seems that the increasing number of refugees is indeed the reason for the fierce fighting between the two armies.
"Old Five, do you think Geng Jingzhong can fight Shaoxing Mansion and Hangzhou Mansion?"
Zheng Siming's eyes were full of expectation.
"I can't beat it!"
Wang Heyao came to a categorical conclusion.
The Qing army has just entered Zhejiang, with Geng Jingzhong's tiger head and snake tail, and Taiwan's Zheng Jin, a-stirring stick, can form a confrontation situation, Geng Jingzhong is already Amitabha.
