Chapter 8 Uniforms in the Playground for Training

Heroic posture, sassy military posture, head up, chest and lower abdomen

Keep your arms together vertically, close your lips and look up at your head

Turn left to right, look sideways, change the axis vertically

The military order roars deafeningly all his life, and his steps are like the wind

After a hearty meal, the three brothers listened to the chatter of the guests, gathered some useful information, and then went upstairs and returned to their respective rooms, resting and recuperating. After a long day's journey, I was indeed a little tired.

This sleep, good fellow, didn't eat dinner, the three of them went to sleep, and the night was quiet. These three slept until the second day, and the sun was three poles. Yu Jia woke up first, called Xiao Er, called for washing water, freshened up, and went out.

Along the way, while strolling and walking, the sound of selling on the street continued, and Yu Jia ran to the county seat a few times, and she was familiar with it. Without much effort, I came to the South Market Armory Shop, called the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper ordered someone to take the water and fire sticks and handed them to Yu Jia, who carried the stick and looked at it carefully:

I saw that this stick was dark all over, the stick was 2 meters and three minutes long, the stick was as thick as a pickaxe, held in the hand, just right, the whole stick, not light or heavy, just 58 pounds. The stick is made of bronze and other steel, mixed to create, dark and shiny, and it is very good-looking.

Came to the courtyard, danced for a while, felt good, made a little light, Zhang Jie should be taking advantage of it. So he took the stick, returned to the house, and settled the account with the shopkeeper, who was already very familiar with Yujia, a big customer. After bargaining, the last 500 taels of silver were sold. A stick, and 500 taels of silver, were gone. The money was spent like running water, but fortunately, the rich second generation was rich, and Yu Jia thanked the shopkeeper and left.

Yu Jia went out, came to a place where no one was, took the stick casually, and put it in a small space. On the way back, stop by and buy some breakfast. Yu Jia carried the breakfast, walked to the hotel, entered the homeinn store, and went upstairs. Knock on the door first and call out Wushuang, come to Zhang Jie's room together, knock on the door and enter the house, Yu Jia put breakfast on the table and said: "Come, eat together, when we get to the barracks, there is no such a good breakfast"

Zhang Jie hurriedly said: "What is good or bad, it can fill your stomach, you don't starve, I'm not a picky eater, hehe"

Wushuang sat down and said with a smile: "You can feed yourself!

Zhang Jie smiled but didn't answer, and hurriedly picked up a bun and started eating. bought a lot, Yu Jia and Wushuang didn't eat a few, and most of them were wiped out by Zhang Jie. Zhang Jie had a bun in his mouth, looking at the expressions of the two of them, he also knew that he didn't eat very well. A little embarrassed, he hurriedly swallowed the bun in his mouth, and said embarrassedly: "I feel that this bun is so delicious, I haven't eaten it before, this meat stuffed bun, just eat a few more, I'm full, you eat, you eat."

Yu Jia and Wushuang glanced at each other, they both shook their heads, didn't speak, said anything, and were speechless. Yu Jia shook off her hand, held an iron rod in her hand, and said, "Take your weapon, take it and take a look, do you want to take advantage of it?"

Zhang Jie looked at the weapon, he was happy, he hurriedly grabbed his hand, looked up and down, left and right, and carefully touched it with his hand, he really loved it, he really liked it. A person who practices martial arts has a weapon at hand, just like marrying a beautiful daughter-in-law.

Yu Jia and the others didn't say anything when they saw him like that, they both understood his mood, and continued to eat, without much effort, they finished eating. Yu Jia said: "Okay, let's go to the military department and sign up." The three of them had nothing with them, went downstairs, said hello to the shopkeeper, and left the room. Come to the stable, lead the horse and rush to the military headquarters.

Huayin County, at that time was not very big, there were only 10 tens of thousands of people in the territory, well-shaped streets, four markets, this military department is near the north market, the yamen sits in the north and faces south, the barracks yard is very large, think about the place where 2,000 people live, it is not small, the playground alone is 5 or 6 football fields large, surrounded by rows of houses.

At this time, there were already several queues at the entrance of the yamen, all of whom had signed up to join the army. At that time, there were relatively few people who volunteered to join the army, and most of them were strong men, and each family enlisted in the army, and it was impossible to go if they didn't go. Generally, most of those who voluntarily join the army have no way to live, and they go to the barracks to make a living, and if they are lucky enough not to die, they can have a future.

It's been a few days since the recruitment of soldiers here, and after a while, they arrived at Yujia and them, and the steward saw that there were still two horses, and then looked at the dress of the three, knowing that these few were rich masters, and they also looked at it differently, and quickly signed up. The recruiter called a soldier and said, "You take these three to the first-class recruit camp and arrange a place to live." Send these two horses to the stable."

The soldier hurriedly responded: "Yes, my lord" The soldier led the three of them. There are too few people who bring horses to join the army, it can't be said that there are none, but there are more than 500 soldiers recruited in the past few days, and there are only about 10 people with horses, and two people come on donkeys.

In the evening, the person in charge of the military uniform went to each barracks to issue a military uniform to each recruit. Tell everyone that tomorrow morning, they will put on their new military uniforms and go to the playground for training. These recruits, each of them is quite excited. Yu Jia's Class A barracks, there are more than 20 people living in the same room, with large bunks in the north and south, and more than a dozen bunks on each side. They all greeted each other, and they knew each other.

There was nothing to say all night, and just after the end of the night, when everyone was sleeping in a daze, the horn sounded, and the veteran came in and shouted: "Hurry up and get up, it's time to!"

Those who were light greeted each other, and everyone woke up and quickly got dressed. "Give you a quarter of an hour, and in a quarter of an hour, you will all assemble in the playground," said the veteran, and then went out.

Each barracks is in charge of a veteran, and each dormitory has to be seen, and it will take a while. Each barracks, five or six rooms. After a while, the veterans of the barracks led the recruits to the playground.

Good guys, 500 people, hula la, came to the playground, all kinds of wonders. There are those with uncombed hair, some without trousers, holding them in their hands, some with untied clothes, some wearing shoes, and the other carrying in their hands, and all kinds of things.

An official dressed as an officer, looking at these recruits, only shook his head and sighed: "How do these recruits feel worse than the previous batch." At this time, I only heard the voice of the official say loudly: "Give you half an hour, tidy up your clothes, the captains of each team, and check your respective squads."

The five veterans were the captains, and they said in unison: "No!" began to check their respective teams, on the edge of the playground, there was an incense table, and incense was inserted on the incense burner, which was used to keep time.

After a while, the captains of each squad reported one after another:

"Report to the Lord, Team A's clothes are finished"

"Report to the adults, Team B's clothes are finished"

"Report to the Lord, Team C's clothes are finished"

"Report to the Lord, Team D's clothes have been tidied up"

"Report to the lord, Team E's clothes have been tidied up"

At this time, the commander, that is, the head of the instructor, said: "Now start practicing military posture." Time a stick of incense"

Each captain beckoned his squad members and began to stand in a military posture, each squad was divided into two groups, each group of 50 people, and began to form a phalanx and practice military posture.

The military posture seems simple, but standing there, motionless, and taking a stick of incense for a long time, is also quite uncomfortable. At this time, everyone is hungry. In the early morning, standing in a military posture, some people can't stand it, and if they are active, they will inevitably be whipped by the captain. Some of them were not very good, and they fainted not long after. The man in charge ordered the fainted man to carry him back and see the doctor.

A pillar of incense finally burned out in a long time, and the standing posture ended. The teams became long queues and went to the room for breakfast. A team of fifty people, ten long lines rushed to the room. There are five cauldrons in front of the room, led by five team leaders, lining up to eat. Each person has a bowl of gruel, four steamed buns, and after receiving the next one, just like that, one by one, they receive breakfast.

Yu Jia, Wushuang, and Zhang Jie took the meal to a corner and sat cross-legged on the ground to eat. Zhang Jie looked at the gruel and the steamed bun in his hand, frowned and said, "This is too little, and I can't eat enough." Yu Jia looked left and right, no one paid attention, and took out a roast chicken from the space, divided it by two, broke it into three parts, and said: "Quick, hurry up and eat, don't let people see it, let's open a small stove." casually, I gave Zhang Jie two steamed buns.

The three of them gobbled up, and within a few clicks, a roast chicken, and the three of them were quietly eliminated. Then slowly drank the porridge and ate the steamed buns. This scene, others did not notice, the instructor was in the distance, they all saw it clearly, and they didn't say anything. What are you talking about, people haven't violated military discipline, and the things they bring don't let people eat.

After a while, when they had finished eating, the soldiers went to the well next to the side, washed their dishes and chopsticks, and handed them over to the room, and breakfast was finished. After resting in place for a quarter of an hour, the assembly began again, and ten more queues returned to the playground.

At this time, the instructor shouted loudly: "Next, we will learn a set of military physical boxing." This set of military body boxing, there are not many moves, a total of 18 tests, easy to learn. Some recruits have not been exposed to martial arts, this set of military body boxing is the capital of your march and war, if you practice well, you will be able to live a few more days and kill a few more enemies on the battlefield in the future. If you don't practice well, you may die early. Therefore, everyone must study carefully in these days. Without further ado, I'll show you a demonstration below, everyone be careful, see clearly" After speaking, the instructor practiced this set of boxing techniques in front.

This set of boxing methods is the basic boxing method for enlisting in the army, and everyone who is a soldier will do it. However, this instructor played out, and it was also very powerful, and it was a bit exaggerated to fly sand and stones. The wind was gusting, and no one could stand within three meters. In the process of boxing, the boxer also used internal strength, so he played such an effect. It's also for recruits to see, let them know that this set of boxing techniques is powerful.

Arouse everyone's desire to learn, and if you learn it, you can also play the effect of an instructor. Don't you know that if you want to play the effect of the instructor's boxing, you can't just refine the boxing method. Ten years of refining can't produce such an effect. You have to have internal strength to achieve such an effect. Of course, there are not many people who really know the mysteries here. Most of them are laymen, just look at the excitement.

After the instructor finished playing, there was applause and cheers from the audience. The instructor signaled, everyone was quiet, and the instructor said, "Let's adjust the queue and divide everyone." The front and back gathered left and right at an arm's length away, and began to "hula cheer formation adjustment, and it will be over for a while."

The instructor saw that there was no problem, so he said: "Next, I will decompose one move at a time, everyone follow me to practice, the first type of tiger goes down the mountain,--- "Eighteen decomposition actions, practiced over and over again." Everyone has almost learned, and the instructor asks the leaders of each team to supervise each team to practice on their own. So the playground ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, Everyone's fists are like the wind, and their feet are like rain.

I didn't do anything else for a day, just practice standing posture and learn a set of boxing techniques. In the afternoon, I was familiar with the boxing techniques, and I don't know how many times I had fought them, and some recruits couldn't lift their arms. Yu Jia and the three of them all have their own skills, and even Zhang Jie has no problems, it is very relaxed. In the evening, the troops were collected and went back to the canteen to eat.

There are so many officers and soldiers in the entire barracks, and there are several canteens. Due to the arrival of new recruits, the meal time in the cafeteria has been slightly adjusted. The recruits train hard, start an hour early, and then the veterans. In the evening, instead of sitting on the floor outside, the recruits went to the cafeteria. Each canteen can't accommodate 500 people at once. There are a total of 6 canteens in the military department, and two are open to new recruits.

The mess in the cafeteria is simple. Long tables are set up one after another, with a large bench on each side. A bench can seat 5 or 6 people, and it can accommodate about 300 people at a time. With about 500 people plus instructors and instructors, two canteens can also be arranged. Everyone waited in line, and today's dish was quite hearty. The military department gave these recruits an extra meal, four dishes, and meat.

In those days, soldiers ate meat, but it was like the New Year. Dinner is enough for rice, not enough to fill. The dish is just a bowl, and four dishes are beaten together. It's different for officials, two bowls, two dishes per bowl, can be more. Instructors also eat with recruits. Instructors do not have to wait in line, there is a special officer channel.

After finishing his meal, the head of the sect walked towards the dining table. After looking around, he walked in one direction, and the direction he went was where Yu Jia and several recruits were sitting. The head of the sect came to Yu Jia's side and put the food on the table.

When everyone saw that the instructor was coming, they all put down their chopsticks, stood up and said in unison, "Hello, adults."

The instructor signaled: "You're welcome, all sit, all sit down" Everyone sat down according to the voice, and then lowered their heads to eat.

The instructor looked at Yu Jia and the three of them, and then put a dish with meat in a bowl in front of the three of them, and said: "You are all the age of growing bodies, and you have been practicing for another day, and the three young men are definitely not enough to eat, this bowl is for you to use."

Seeing this, Yu Jia hurriedly said: "My lord, how can this be", the instructor smiled and said: "It's nothing, I can't eat so much alone, you're welcome." Zhang Jie was really unkind: "Then Lord Xie", grinning with a big mouth, he went up with a chopstick head and added a piece of meat to his mouth. Yu Jia glared at him, this guy didn't seem to see it. There was no problem with this number, Yu Jia shook her head and didn't say anything.

While eating, the instructor said, "What are your names?"

Yu Jia hurriedly replied: "Hui Yu, in Xia Jiang Yujia, the family lives in Jiangjiazhuang", Wushuang continued: "Lord Yu, in Xia Jiang Wushuang, Yu Jia is my eldest brother," Zhang Jie hurriedly said: "My name is Zhang Jie, my name is with Brother Jiang."

After listening to the introduction of the three of them, the instructor smiled and said, "Oh, look at you on the playground, you are performing well, you have skills, and you are a practitioner at a glance." It's just that this little brother Zhang Jie is almost." Yu Jia hurriedly said: "Adults praise it falsely, they have all practiced some small styles since childhood, and they can't be on the table."

The instructor laughed and said: "You are a brother, you are not honest, you are called a small style, so who dares to say that you are a big style." I don't think with my current skills, I may not be able to beat you!" Yu Jia hurriedly said: "Adult's magic skills are world-famous, how can I be compared with a pawn", the instructor smiled and said: "In the future, your ability will be very great, and you will definitely be able to make a great difference when you go to the frontier." Yu Jia said: "Master Xie Ji Yan". The instructor then said: "Little brother, this official has something to ask for, I don't know if I can agree?"

Yu Jia hurriedly asked, "What do you want?" The instructor said, "I want to make friends with you, how about it?"

When Yu Jia heard this, she moved slightly, and hurriedly replied: "How dare you climb high under the nobody" The instructor waved his hand and said: "Eh! Little brother, it will definitely soar in the near future." In the next surname Li Mingyan, the word atrium, the family lives in Xiliang County, just because of the troubled times, I left home, ran away from home, and came here to Gou'an" The instructor continued: "If the little brother doesn't dislike it, you and I will become brothers of the opposite sex, okay?"

Yu Jia was a little surprised: "My lord?"

The instructor said, "What is this, do you want to?" Yu Jia hurriedly said: "I can't ask for it." I have two brothers here, why don't we be together?"

Instructor Li Yan said: "That's very good, I also like these two little guys" So, the four of them borrowed incense in the cafeteria and bowed here.

Four brothers, Li Yan is the oldest at 25 years old, the eldest brother, Yu Jia is the second brother at 20, Wushuang is the same age as Zhang Jie, but his birthday is two months older than Zhang Jie, becoming the third and the fourth. The story of the four people worshipping in this barracks has become a good story and has been passed down for a long time.

On the second day, the troops practiced as usual. Knife skills, marksmanship, drawing a bow and archery were all taught, and finally the formation. For the past few days, there has been no vain and no night, so I practiced.

A week passed in the blink of an eye, and the short barracks training was over. Everyone also has a new understanding of what it takes to be a soldier. Seven days is indeed too short. No way, time is pressing. This team of 500 people, in such a short period of time, to say that the formation of combat effectiveness, it is a little hanging, but there are indeed some changes. After all, they are all young and energetic. There are great transformations, and now they are all heroic, and they are magnificent.

The training is over, and we have to check it out. On the morning of the second day, the general soldiers of the Huayin County Command and Military Department went to the school to inspect the recruits. The parade procedure is very simple, the soldiers stand in line, line up in formation, draw a bow and shoot an arrow. Find a few people with weapons and come out to fight for a while. Of course, Yu Jia, Wushuang, and Zhang Jie all went into battle, and their performances were all good.

After watching the review, the county order made a generous statement, and the review ceremony was over. Tomorrow is going to go on the expedition, give everyone half a day off, and you can go out of the barracks. Just go back to the barracks before dinner in the evening. When it's time to go on an expedition, you have to prepare something.

Back in the barracks, taking off their uniforms, Yujia and the little brothers left the barracks and came to the street. First go to the pharmacy and buy some Chinese herbal medicines, mainly to heal wounds, stop bleeding, and cure dysentery, anyway, a lot of them, and then some saltpeter, sulfur, and phosphorus.

Zhang Jie was a little puzzled: "Big brother, why are you doing these things?"

Yu Jia said: "Be prepared, you will know when the time comes"

Coming out of the Chinese medicine shop, several people came to the place where food was sold, this is Zhang Jie's favorite, this point, that little bit, anyway, the eldest brother spends money and sweeps wildly. It was really like sweeping the street, and the whole street was looted by the brothers in an instant. Of course, it cost a lot of money.

Yu Jia came to the winery again and bought hundreds of jars of good wine. Zhang Jie spoke again: "Brother, what are you buying so much wine for?" Yu Jia explained: "The place we went to was in the north, and the weather over there was much colder than ours. It's August now, and when you get there, you have to spend the winter, and it's going to be even colder. It's cold over there, drink some wine, you can keep out the cold"

Zhang Jie understood, and said, "Oh, brother, you think really thoughtfully." With that, the three of them came to the clothing store again to buy a few cotton clothes. Anyway, in your own little world, you can put anything into it. After a while, it is also a lot of purchases. Of course, the silver is not gone very quickly. No, more than 2,000 taels of silver have flowed again.

Yu Jia smiled and said: "I have spent all the money to marry my daughter-in-law" Wushuang stepped forward at this time and said: "Brother, Uncle An is at home, I will show you the family business, what is this money?"

Yu Jia quipped: "I have lost all the belongings that my father has saved for a lifetime."

At this time, Zhang Jie came over: "Brother, is your family very rich?"

Wushuang took over and said: "That is, our Huayin County master may not have the eldest brother's family to be rich", Zhang Jie couldn't understand this concept: "How rich is that? No, big brother, let's buy two more roast chickens" Okay, the two roast chickens sent this master.

The three of them talked and laughed and walked in the direction of the barracks. They came back late, and by the time they got to their rooms, the others had already returned. Like the three of them, buy so many things. Other people don't necessarily buy more than they once did. Most of the soldiers were from poor backgrounds, they just went out for a walk, and there were very few people who actually bought things.

On the last day at this military station, I also relaxed, a room of people will be comrades-in-arms in the future, and at this time, they will have a relationship with each other. Yu Jia took out two jars of wine from the space, a few roast chickens and some side dishes, all of which were ready-made, and she didn't go to the cafeteria to eat, so she started drinking them in the house.

I didn't dare to make a loud noise, whispering, drinking a little wine, chattering and idleness, until the horn of sleep sounded, everyone was busy for a while, packed up, went to bed and fell asleep. The next day we will go on the expedition. This is exactly what it is:

Don't be shocked before the big event comes, and don't panic when you are relaxed

The sophistication of human feelings needs to be thoroughly understood, and the gentleman and villain are distinguished

Hongchen has a trade-off in everything, and the great love in the world is boundless

Don't be afraid of all the difficulties, break through the south wall, and let's do it again
