The new barracks were located less than ten miles outside the Tonghua Gate in the east of Chang'an City.

The entire barracks were built using brick and concrete structures.

Each barracks can accommodate 20 people, each with a single bed and special toiletries.

The camp has special toilets, bathrooms and toilets, and the playground is much more complete than other military camps.

Even the horses have made it to one per person, and they are rich.

The recruits cheered with joy when they saw such a luxurious barracks.

Everyone felt that they were lucky to be part of this new army.

As everyone knows, they seem to be happy a little early, because from the moment they enter here, they have been facing daily training that is like hell.

Early the next morning, Li Zhi and Li Jing came to the barracks together.

After Su Lie gathered everyone, Li Jing came to the front of the team.

He coughed dryly and said, "Everyone, from today onwards, we will be considered comrades in this army. ”

He continued as he glanced at the recruits, "His Royal Highness the King of Jin has specially asked His Majesty to reward our army with a resounding name, and that is the Dragoon. ”

When the soldiers below heard the dragon character in the name of their army, they immediately shouted excitedly: "Dragoon!" Dragoon! ”

Dragons, the most powerful mythical beasts in myths and legends, can be said to be omnipotent.

And almost all words related to dragons are related to the current imperial power.

Li Shimin gave this name in the hope that this army would be absolutely loyal to him and invincible on the battlefield.

Li Jing waited until everyone chanted for a while, and then raised his hand to stop it.

After the playground was quiet, he continued: "Ladies and gentlemen, Your Majesty has given you such a unique name, and I hope that we will be loyal to Your Majesty and brave and invincible. ”

Speaking of this, he suddenly turned grim and raised his voice and said: "Therefore, we need to be strict with military discipline, diligent in training, and repay Your Majesty with a tenacious will, a strong physique, and a brave spirit." ”

When the crowd heard this, they shouted again: "Train, train." ”

Li Jing stopped for a moment and continued: "Mencius has a saying, there are no rules, there is no circle, and the following general will read out the rules in the army." ”

After saying this, he took out a neatly folded piece of rice paper from his bosom and slowly unfolded it.

Then he read them out one by one and explained them.

First of all, it stipulates that those whose household names are not appropriate and those who cannot be assembled will be punished with 30 lashes for the first time and 50 lashes again if they are not timely.

Second, those who make wanton noise, those who gather crowds to make trouble, those who fight at night, and those who conceal their feelings are punished with seventy lashes.

Li Jing just read two words, and the soldiers below were all in good spirits.

Flogging is an extremely painful punishment for people today, ranging from broken skin to broken bones and tendons.

In addition, the current medical conditions are backward, so once you are seriously injured, you will basically face death.

Next, Li Jing continued to read: "The sword soldiers are unfavorable, the banners are not new, stealing people's property, disrespecting orders, and those who delay and treat slowly will be whipped a hundred." ”

By this time, the faces of the people had turned a little pale, for if he had been beaten with a hundred lashes, he would have been doomed to not live.

Li Jing continued: "Those who defy the ban, discuss right and wrong in vain, and leak the lives of the army privately - beheaded. ”

Everyone had already held their breath by this point.

Li Jing continued: "Those who are vainly injured and deceitful, avoid trials and wars, bully the people, commit adultery and commit inferiority, and flee without a fight - beheaded." ”

Next, Li Jing read more than a dozen military disciplines with enthusiasm, each of which was beheaded.

These criminal laws are much stricter than the military laws commonly used in the Tang Dynasty, and many of the punishments have not even been heard of by Su Lie and other old people in the army before.

After Li Jing finished reading it all, everyone was so frightened that their faces turned pale, and they even became cautious when breathing.

After reading the military discipline, Li Jing took out another piece of rice paper.

I only heard him speak: "I think that the generals have noticed the difference in the barracks here, and the following generals will come to announce the rules here." ”

The so-called rule is that all soldiers should go to bed as soon as the lights out order sounds, get up immediately after the wake-up order sounds, make up the bedding, and wash up quickly.

All personnel gathered on the playground for training within a quarter of an hour after the wake-up call sounded.

Half a quarter here is equivalent to about fifteen minutes, which is difficult to accomplish at the current level of training.

Therefore, when Li Jing read out these regulations, Su Lie and the other old people all took a deep breath silently.

Then there are the requirements for eating, going to the toilet, and so on.

In particular, the article of going to the toilet was taken out by Li Jing and emphasized.

There is no way, people in this era do not have the quality of modern people, and they usually don't pick a place to go to the toilet.

Therefore, Li Zhi deliberately emphasized the significance of such a request to Li Jing, that is, to avoid the breeding of the virus.

At this point, Li Jing's task has come to an end.

Next, Li Zhi stood up and began to teach everyone to train the formation and familiarize themselves with various sports equipment.

From this day on, the unit entered into devilish training, and soon some excellent fighters emerged from these recruits.

Among them is the later generation of famous generals Xue Li-Xue Rengui.

At this time, Xue Rengui was just seventeen years old, which was the age when he had just joined the army.

The training intensity of the Dragoons is much higher than that of ordinary armies, so it is natural that they have a lot more equipment and food supply than other troops.

And the declaration of these things needs to be approved by Hou Junji, the secretary of the Ministry of War.

In this way, it also gave him an excuse to find trouble, so he hurriedly counted a two-month consumption of the dragoon army and handed it over to Li Shimin's imperial case.

Li Shimin couldn't help frowning after seeing the figures counted by Hou Junji, because this kind of consumption was close to twice that of other troops.

The consumption of food and herbs was more than twice that of other armies.

In desperation, Li Shimin could only call Li Zhi and Li Jing to the Taiji Hall and wanted them to explain the reason for such a waste.

After Li Zhi and the others arrived, Li Shimin immediately asked: "Pharmacist, pheasant slave, Hou Aiqing showed me a copy of the consumption of the dragoon army in the past two months, and it seems that it is a little too much for me. ”

Li Jing opened his mouth and said: "Your Majesty, the training intensity of the Dragoon Army far exceeds that of all armies, and injuries are naturally inevitable, and all kinds of equipment wear out faster. ”

After listening to Li Jing's words, Hou Junji asked: "Li Xiang's words are not acceptable, the training of all armies is also a lot, but there has never been so many wounds, could it be that the dragoon army is fighting every day?" ”

Li Jing said: "This official will hand over an elite soldier to His Majesty within a year, and the daily training will naturally be much stricter, and the soldier's combat training will naturally be more ruthless." ”
