Chapter 45: Then play music and then dance! (Seeking the moon
The fire in July is when the weather is getting colder. Even the soldiers in the military camp have added a layer of underwear to train.
But there was an exception in a camp. I saw these two teams of more than 200 people wearing summer uniforms, standing under the warm sun, motionless.
There are whistlemen wearing armor, holding the order flags over and over again. Whenever a 200 number of people in front of them are asked to shout out the meaning of these banners in teams. If the shouting is not loud, not neat enough, or if one person shouts the wrong order, the entire team will be punished.
Lean down, there are ten push-ups on the spot. For these men who do farm work all year round, ten push-ups are naturally not a big deal, but they can’t handle them many times. If someone makes mistakes, they do them. Sometimes a team has to do five or six groups in a row. Good guy, how can you stand it!
After getting up, I continued to stand in a military posture, with my fingers pressed against my thighs and my waist straightened. In such a cool weather in July of the lunar calendar, my forehead was sweating like rain. I couldn't raise my hand to wipe it. If anyone moves, the whole team will be punished immediately!
To others, this kind of training method is indeed a bit ridiculous and useless, and a veteran said with a smile:
"Maybe the new young general doesn't know how to train troops, so he figured out the method himself. What's the use of standing alone in training troops? When training troops, you have to learn the order flag, the military formation, and the order of advance and retreat."
The other soldiers nodded in a vague way, but someone said at this time:
"I heard that this is the training method of His Highness Liao, who is quite talented,."
As soon as we said this, everyone stopped saying anything, but they were somewhat "but that's the case" in their hearts.
Anyway, after a while, we will be going out to practice. These soldiers who practice strangely will only know how to stand in a daze, right?
When a group of veterans were free to arrange the military formations, they pointed and smiled at the battalions trained by the new law next to them. At this time, when the sentry officer gave the order, the battalions took out white cloth strips, but not tied to their heads, but tied to their legs.
He wrapped his cloth bags around his legs, and then he carried a baggage backpack, and then went out to practice. What is training? It's a marching!
It is understandable to march, but why do you have to tie a cloth strip? When everyone saw it, they secretly joked, just thinking that it was a way for the nobles to find something to do if they had nothing to do.
I'm afraid that this kind of nonsense practice method can't be able to develop any good soldiers, right?
…………
Wang Ji didn't know what the other battalions thought of him and others. Even if he knew, Wang Ji had no extra time to take care of him.
Just before Xu Zengshou was in charge of the army, Wang Ji and the captain also learned the order flag, but at that time they were just fresh. They remembered one while practicing. When they were not trained, they would be a good person. After eating, they would pick their teeth and go to bed, or they would just bask in the sun and stare blankly.
But since Xu Zengshou was in charge of the army and began to use His Highness the Liao King's military training method, Xu Zengshou would review the orders of the flag over and over again whenever he had some free time.
Even the captains came over and over again to teach them the recruits, who had taught them in their spare time before, so they only played during training. They thought that they could always learn it over time, so they were not in a hurry.
But now it is different, because someone has done something wrong, and they have to be punished!
In fact, Wang Ji and other new recruits have worked hard, because it would be fine if they punished themselves more. The whole team would be punished, so it would be a bit unbearable. If anyone is stupid and often implicated others, the eyes of others will look at him differently.
Even the shameless person is still working hard.
Needless to say, the rest is all the time to get up and dress every day. The missing piece is like urging the king of hell, but when I get used to it, I even returned to the camp after training, and saw that the camp was neatly arranged, as if it was copied, and I couldn't help but feel satisfied in my heart.
Just as the whistleman sitting by the bonfire said repeatedly every night:
"Master General Xu said that this is the new army training method of His Highness Liao. The so-called new army is the elite among the elite..."
We are also elite!

When Xu Zengshou and others used the method Zhu Qi to train the army, Zhu Qi didn't know that the cowhide he braged was actually taken seriously by Xu Zengshou and others, and even regarded it as a treasure. Li Jinglong is a specialist in military writing. He is so familiar with the way of talking about military affairs on paper. He has a good memory. When he went back, he sorted out the set of things that His Highness of Liao was bragging about and wrote several pieces of paper.
Xu Zengshou took out the manuscript to read that day, and he got it from Li Jinglong. By the way, Li Qi also had one.
Li Jinglong even made a cover for this manuscript, called "The Art of War"!
Good guy, if Zhu Qi knew that Li Jinglong had raised himself to the height of "Zi", he would probably jump up immediately and send Li Jinglong away on the spot.
What is Zhu Qi’s goal? That is, to be a low-key man, bathe in the glory of the big boss, be a playboy, eat and eat, eat and have sex, eat and have sex, and just die on a woman’s belly when she is old.
As for what name is left in history, thousands of people admire it, but please let me down!
At this time, Zhu Qi was practicing his ideal in Taiyuan Prefecture. As for the powerful and powerful Prince of Liao in his dream, he was a dream after all.
Looking at the singing and dancing in front of him, Zhu Qi was so happy.
By the way, he was in the Taiyuan Palace, not in the military camp. He was both a deputy general and a prince. There was nothing wrong with staying in the palace. Anyway, the team was going to do things, so he just used it as a rubber stamp, stamped whatever it was, and then nodded "yes, right, right" and it was done.
In life, this is the attitude.
Drinking wine and dancing, there were local beauties from Taiyuan Prefecture feeding pastries next to him. Zhu Qi was enjoying his life there, and the guard Gao Jin came over with the official document of today. Zhu Qi picked it up and took it to take a look.
It was a matter of conducting a battalion and military drill in early August. The generals and officials below had already arranged it. Zhu Qi stamped it and was finished when he was there to watch that day.
Of course, it is stamped and allowed, not to send troops to fight. What is there to be no way to allow it? Speaking of which, the generals Xu Da left for him are really capable.
This is the case during the Hongwu period. Whether in the army or the court, there were no canvasses or people who had a good meal at all. You can be a hand-off manager with peace of mind, comfortable!
Zhu Qi waved his pen and passed it directly, and then asked Gao Jin to take it away quickly, so as not to hinder me, and then play music and dance!
Zhu Qi was happy all day long and no one cared about it, but he didn't know that the notes were handing over to Xu Da and Zhu Yuanzhang of Yingtian Prefecture.
Even the local censor of Taiyuan Prefecture shook his head. His Highness the King of Liao seemed to have a false reputation. What about the general who had agreed to be? He never ran to the military camp several times and was scrambling in the palace all day long. Could it be that this would be a good army to train?
I could not say that I would like to study His Highness the King of Liao, but when the memorial of the Censor had just been written and sent to Yingtian Prefecture, it was at this time that the military camp competition in early August began in a tense and busy atmosphere...
