Chapter 200: Severe Drills

"Keep going! I wait for reorganization in the open space in front. Everyone take their things, don't walk around, and follow the instructions to line up and ......"

The battalion officers and soldiers next to him shouted loudly, which pulled Zhang Xun, Li Hao and other recruits back from the shock, and everyone followed the team to the reorganization office.

"Zhang Xun, Li Hao!"

Zhang Xun and Li Hao hurriedly put down their things, handed over their number plates one after another, and then hurriedly held the things on the ground in their hands again, for fear of losing one.

"Zhang Xun has excellent results in the selection, and he is assigned to the left post of the third battalion of the new barracks, so he will be a captain of the third team of this left post."

"Li Hao has excellent results in the selection, and he is assigned to the left post of the third battalion of the new barracks, so he will be a captain in the fourth team of this left post."

A flag general wrote the establishment to which Zhang Xun and Li Hao were assigned on the number plate, and then pointed to another flag general next to him, and said to Zhang Xun and Li Hao: "That's the boss of the two of you, Qi Zong, from today on, you will follow him for training, everything in the camp must obey your Qi Zong's orders, and you must report directly to Qi Zong, understand?" ”

Zhang Xun and Li Hao loaded the number plate and hurriedly received the order.

Then Zhang Xun, Li Hao and several other recruits who were appointed as captains were gathered by the flag general, the flag general had an obvious scar on his face, and his legs and feet were still a little lame when he walked, Zhang Xun and Li Hao secretly said in their hearts: "It should be a veteran of the new army, and there is no way to go to the battlefield after being wounded, so you train recruits here?" It seems that Lord Ethics is really affectionate, and such disabled soldiers don't give up! ”

"Follow me."

Under the order of the general banner, Zhang Xun, Li Hao and several others hurriedly followed behind, and came directly to a place on the left wing of the camp, where all the houses were lined up in rows, neatly aligned, each row of twenty big houses, all of them were good houses with blue bricks and tiles, Zhang Xun, Li Hao and other recruits saw their eyes widen, the houses in these barracks were better than many houses they had seen!

Mr. Qi led everyone to the third row, and then every two captains arranged them into a house, and when they arrived in the fifth room, Mr. Qi pushed open the door and beckoned Zhang Xun and Li Hao to walk in.

"This is our dormitory, each house here lives two teams, thirty people, from today on, you will follow me to eat and live here together, during the training period, we are comrades."

"Yes!"

Zhang Xun and Li Hao looked at the room, a large chase across the east and west was spread in the innermost part of the room, and on the outer wall were ten tables, with pen, ink, paper and inkstones on them, and there was a shelf next to each table, and there was a small hook on it.

Mr. Qi said to the two: "Each of you chooses half of the table and half of the bed for your recruits, and then hangs your number plate with your name on the hook, and arranges everything and puts it all on the shelf." The futon was all folded on the bunk, and the clothes were the same......"

"Yes!"

At this moment, twenty-eight recruits were brought here and arranged under Zhang Xun and Li Hao's men, and Mr. Qi inevitably repeated what he had just said.

When everyone was almost tidy up, Mr. Qi walked to the shelves of Zhang Xun and Li Haoxuan, and then took everything down and sorted it out in front of everyone.

"Towels should be hung vertically like this, washed every day, cleaned and dried, and there should be no stains or odors. Cups, cutlery, and toiletries should be placed neatly on the top, and everyone's things should be in a straight line, not indiscriminately! ”

"The bedding should be folded in four like this, folded into squares like tofu, and the clothes should be folded like this, making sure that there are no wrinkles!"

Zhang Xun, Li Hao and others were dumbfounded when they saw this, where is this soldier, even if it is the house of those gentry and eunuchs, they can't be so tidy, right?

Mr. Qi ignored everyone's surprised looks, and continued: "Master Ethics said that we are not old-style soldiers from other guards, but soldiers, soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, and soldiers who go to the soup for the people of China!" Therefore, each of you must maintain your own image, not only to be strict in practice, but also to maintain a high spirit, and a clean housekeeping environment! ”33

"Today you will practice according to the standards I have put together, and you will do this one thing in one day today. Starting tomorrow morning, every morning I will check your housekeeping, and those who fail will be severely punished! ”

Zhang Xun, Li Hao and others were dumbfounded, and then began to practice tidying up housekeeping under the supervision of Mr. Qi, and everyone practiced until dinner time, and they all passed Mr. Qi's inspection.

That night, Zhang Xun and Li Hao's banner were all gathered in a huge tent, in the new army camp, they were all in the flag as a unit for dinner, in the open space on the north side of the camp, dozens of huge tents were neatly arranged, here is the "canteen" of all the soldiers.

Zhang Xun and Li Hao sat on the chairs, looking at the food that had been arranged, and swallowed their saliva, like the other twenty-eight recruits of the same team, from the time they sat down, everyone's eyes never left the food on the table.

White meat flatbread, salted soy sauce, stewed pork in a large pot, as well as boiled eggs, whole steamed fish, roasted rabbit, each person also gets a large bowl of mutton soup, and the rest of the various preserved fruits are as many as a dozen plates, as well as white flower steamed buns and snow-white rice.

On the floor on one side of the table, there is also a large wooden barrel with egg soup inside, and large pieces of frangipani float in the soup, which looks like it is full of oil splashes.

Such a table of food is beyond the cognition of these recruits: isn't this something that only the eunuchs can afford?

Zhang Xun and Li Hao also twisted themselves fiercely, for fear that they were dreaming, and once they woke up, they wouldn't be able to eat such a hearty and delicious food.

At this moment, Zhang Xun and Li Hao's banner always walked in with more than a dozen soldiers, each holding two large wine jars, which were the pot wine produced in Dapanbao. Then the dozen or so soldiers began to distribute wine jars to each table.

I saw that Mr. Qi said loudly: "Brothers! Tonight is the first meal for everyone to join the army, and the first meal for our new barracks, the ethics lord has an order, to let everyone eat and drink well, and specially ordered someone to send the pot wine of Dapanbao, everyone must not get drunk tonight! ”

When everyone heard this, they immediately cheered, and even some of the recruits with shallow tear sockets immediately cried, such food and good wine were unimaginable in their lives before, but today they can eat and drink to their heart's content, as if they were dreaming.

Zhang Xun and Li Hao were also emotional, looking at the excited appearance of the companions around them at this time, if anyone dared to say even half a bad word about Liu Yan in front of everyone, they would be immediately torn to pieces by Zhang Xun, Li Hao and other recruits, at this time Liu Yan is the "leader" in everyone's hearts, and no one can be slandered.

The general flag beckoned everyone to fill the wine, then raised the wine glass, and said loudly to everyone: "Everyone is not drunk tonight, tomorrow morning, each flag will start to organize the study of military discipline and military regulations, and begin to organize queues, physical fitness and other training." ”

"Starting tomorrow, each team will conduct drills in various subjects during the day, and begin to read and read at night, and the command envoy yamen has recruited a large number of literate gentlemen, who will be in place tomorrow."

Zhang Xun, Li Hao and others were very surprised when they heard that they not only had to carry out all kinds of training, but also read and write, and they were very surprised. What is the use of reading and literacy?

Mr. Qi looked at everyone's puzzled expressions, and said with a smile: "At first, I didn't understand why I wanted to study, but one day I was fortunate enough to meet Master Ethics, so I opened my mouth to ask. Do you know what Lord Ethics said to me? ”

Zhang Xun and Li Hao looked at Mr. Qi's eyes full of envy, when will they be able to see the integrity of the adult?

The recruits shook their heads.

Mr. Qi said: "At that time, the Lord of Ethics said to me: I have always had a tradition of going out and going to the prime minister, and my Chinese men should also be both civil and military. Let you read and write, is to hope that one day you will have the opportunity to enter the picture, be able to make great contributions to China, and be able to seek peace for the people! ”

Zhang Xun, Li Hao and other recruits were shocked when they heard this, and Liu Yan's words moved everyone.

Mr. Qi held a wine glass and said to everyone: "Master Ethics attaches great importance to everyone, and he does not hesitate to spend a lot of money to train everyone, just hoping that one day he can stabilize the world with everyone!" For the first glass of wine tonight, let's pay tribute to Lord Ethics together! ”

"For Lord Conduct, congratulations!"

"For Lord Conduct, congratulations!"

A glass of liquor went down their stomachs, Zhang Xun and Li Hao only felt a heat rolling down their throats, and there was an indescribable feeling churning in their stomachs, which was very comfortable.

Through the feeling of being slightly drunk, Zhang Xun and Li Hao realized that they had come to a new world, and from tonight, their lives had completely changed.

From the second day, the recruits of each department began training, and at first it was just a simple basic training, and the recruits dealt with it easily. Zhang Xun and Li Hao didn't feel any difficulties in this recruit training, but on the fourth day, Liu Yan personally came to the recruit camp, and under the auspices of Liu Yan, the amount of exercise was increased, and the basic physical training subjects were also carried out to the highest standards, and everything changed.

The recruits had just adapted to the increased amount of training, and Liu Yan added a weight-bearing march of twenty miles a day to everyone.

Including Zhang Xun and Li Hao, all the recruits must be fully armed, and the weight on each of them has reached about thirty catties, and they must return to the camp before lunch starts, otherwise everyone will not have to eat lunch!

For ten days in a row, not to mention the surroundings of the recruit camp, even around the entire Lingshan Acropolis, almost every piece of land had their footprints on it.

It's just like this, there are already many people who can't hold on, and the recruits practice every day to the point of dying of breath, which is really not something that people can stand it, and all the recruits under Zhang Xun are full of complaints.

Zhang Xun was also instigated by his subordinates to find Mr. Qi to complain, and Mr. Qi also said with a sad face: "This training is presided over by the master of ethics himself, we can only persevere, who has the courage to say that there will be no training?" If you still have the strength to talk here, I'm going to rest! ”

Zhang Xun was immediately deflated when he heard this.

The next day, when everyone was preparing to march with a load, Liu Yan announced in public: After this training, all unqualified recruits will be removed from the ranks of the new army, and all the recruits who have passed the training will begin to pay military salaries and military equipment!

As soon as these words came out, everyone's morale was greatly boosted, and the resentment in everyone's hearts suddenly disappeared, and even the load-bearing march that was about to start seemed not so scary.

Near noon, Zhang Xun and Li Hao each returned to the recruit camp with exhausted recruits. And what was waiting for everyone was not a hot meal, but a lot of exercise equipment brought by Liu Yan!

After the wooden spears and knives were issued, Zhang Xun, Li Hao and all the other recruits understood in their hearts that their suffering was far from over.

Sure enough, after lunch, Liu Yan commanded everyone to tie sandbags to all the recruits on their arms and legs, and added iron to the wooden spears and knives used for drills!

Since then, everyone has repeated Professor Liu Yan's seven or eight movements thousands of times a day, and these moves have been refined by Liu Yan according to the needs of actual combat, and everyone should use this method to form muscle memory so that they can play normally in the battle formation.

Moreover, it is also rumored among everyone that all the exercises during the whole training period are still adjusted at any time after Liu Yan arranges those flag generals to observe the state of everyone!

After this statement spread, Zhang Xun also carefully observed and found that as long as the recruits could still pinch their chopsticks when eating, the next day's drill would definitely be increased!

So, all the recruits, including Zhang Xun, Li Hao and others, learned to be obedient, and everyone without exception directly held the bowl in their hands to eat, and no one used chopsticks anymore, and everyone would rather eat like a dog than lose half their lives the next day.

In this way, after everyone was confused for a few days, the flag commanders became more and more perverted, and everyone began to observe the situation of the recruits in each department going to the toilet.

As long as those flag commanders find that the recruits can go to the toilet alone, it means that everyone's arms, legs and feet have not been "sufficiently moved", which means that the amount of training needs to be increased again.

In the face of such a situation, all the recruits who participated in the training were also out of the way, and everyone went to the toilet according to a team of fifteen people, and they all let others help to support, and pulled up their pants ......, even Zhang Xun wanted to go to the toilet, but also to pull his brothers to go together, and several people "helped" each other to solve the problem.

Some people died, but not completely......
