Whether south of the Yellow River or north of the Yellow River, entering the twelve months of the Song Dynasty, it is a very cold day. The soldiers of the Yuan Dynasty had to use such days to train, while the army of the Song Dynasty used this time to measure the benchmark points to prepare for many work next year.

After some cleaning, the thorns that like to talk bad things were cleared out. There were no bastards in the army who were yelling hard and tired and only expected treatment. Everyone started to talk more easily, especially after retirement.

"Henan is so empty, and the government should immigrate to Henan. But we soldiers are not familiar with the place, so what is it to stay in Henan?" Such speeches are very common and will not be considered as simple dissatisfaction or complaints.

When I go back to my hometown to farm, I am surrounded by acquaintances, so I can take care of each other even if I have anything to do. After many people joined the army, their families still look forward to them going home to support their stores. If they follow the propaganda in the army, I hope everyone can immigrate to Henan and take root in such a place. There are a few soldiers with no land at home who are willing to divide the land here, but most soldiers still think it is better to go home.

Zhao Qian also had this idea. But of course he didn't want to go back to farm, and his family had no land. Zhao Jiaren's Zhao family may have been the largest landlord in the entire Song Dynasty in a very short period of time, but as he became the Zhao Taiwei, these lands and industries were rapidly nationalized. When Zhao Taiwei became the Zhao Taiwei, he would have lost an inch of land.

So what Zhao Qian wants to return to is his current home, that is, his home in Hangzhou, rather than his hometown in Quanzhou. When he returns to Hangzhou, he can do the promising job of the prince, and no longer has to set any measurement benchmarks with everyone in the wild.

However, what Zhao Qian heard from his mother most talked about since childhood was that his father Zhao Jiaren started working at the grassroots level and built a pond in Mulan Pier, turning the desolate beach that originally only produces Putian grass into a rich farmland with hundreds of kilograms of rice per mu. Those pragmatic political achievements made Zhao Qian feel that doing practical things was a very glorious thing. Zhao Qian really couldn't do it even if he left the work at hand.

Since he couldn't do something to run away, Zhao Qian could only continue his work as a squad leader. That was to preside over normal troops operations. Persuading troops to stay was to target veterans, and what the new recruits had to do was to improve their military skills. After all, measuring was only one of the many skills of the army.

If you want to improve your skills, you have to train your army. It is winter, and it happens that cats can stay in the camp. It is cold and the weather is cold, so exercising can make your body warm.

The training of the Song army is very simple, which is to keep the queue and shoot at the enemy in various environments. The front-mounted smoothbore gun fired by the fire cap is very high, and skilled soldiers can even shoot six shots in one minute. At any time, they must ensure the queue, which becomes the key to the war.

It was easy to say, but when it really started to work, Zhao Qian understood what it would be like to stand still in the cold wind for half an hour. Even if he had a military coat, military cap, and gloves, it was not a good feeling. First, the temperature of his body began to drop, then the body exposed in the air began to feel cold, and then the thinner part began to feel cold.

However, the soldiers had to continue standing motionless until their superiors ordered them to act. The only good thing was that these superiors also had to stand in the cold wind. This was the death order of the Zhao Guan family. This kind of training that had a harsh test of endurance was never allowed to hide in places where soldiers could not see it.

As the squad leader, the instructor said it very clearly in the study class that Zhao Qian participated in. Officers exist as examples and examples. If an officer cannot even compare with soldiers, what is the purpose of an officer?

Young people are naturally full of energy and will win together, and Zhao Qian naturally doesn't want to fall behind. However, he has some doubts, can this approach really be accepted by everyone? When officers stand on the front line, can those soldiers really remain unshakable?

In the army, this kind of training that tests endurance and perseverance is not the most difficult, the most difficult is ideological education. Zhao Qian didn't understand very well why his father Zhao Jiaren, a great scholar who was born in the Jinshi, got so close to many of these soldiers who only started to recognize words after joining the army. After his experience after he arrived at the army, he found that those new policies were basically promoted in the army.

Before New Year's Day, Zhao Guanjia's latest speech was delivered to the army. The whole army had to learn these contents.

The first thing I learned was the officers. The Zhao Guan Family used plain language to talk about the domineering and cruelty of the soldiers of the Five Dynasties and the tragic fate of the people of that era. Later, it was about the new system implemented by Zhao Kuangyin after the establishment of the Song Dynasty. From then on, the warriors could no longer act recklessly and could no longer act rampantly.

"Everyone may think that many of the soldiers we have seen before have turned to the enemy and treason, causing harm to the country and the people. If we compare, aren't the same in the military leaders of the Five Dynasties the same? If we say this, we will get something wrong. Now when we mention the military leaders who have caused harm to the country and the people, we all think that they are doing something wrong, and we all hope to stop this atrocities and punish those military leaders who have caused harm to the country and the people. In the Five Dynasties, this disaster to the country and the people was the norm, and no one could object to this, let alone to stop or even punish. The Song Dynasty established not only a country, but also a dynasty, but also established and restored the system, allowing the people to have the protection of the system. This is one of the significance of the establishment of the Song Dynasty..."

Listening to this kind of strength, Zhao Qian felt that this was indeed the style of his father, which was often said about a world that was too ideal. Zhao Qian did not hate the world described by his father, but he also knew that this world was often unconvincing when facing reality. If you want to realize such a world, you must fight too many bastards. Zhao Qian felt that it was so hard to fight such a firm struggle with the bastards.

And when fighting with these bastards, why do you have to take out the family affairs of the Zhao family so clearly to ordinary soldiers? In the previous few publicity activities, Zhao Qian really had no fantasies about the people's ability to understand.

After listening to this large speech, the company commander asked the officers to express their opinions. The various prefaces said by the people in front of them were inconsistent with each other, and it was obvious that these people could not grasp the key points at all. Everyone should pass the study of Zhao Guanjia's speech. When it was Zhao Qian's turn to speak, Zhao Qian stood up and replied: "The purpose of this speech is to let us know what country the Song Dynasty was, what system the Taizu established in the past, and what essence we had to leave after the Song Dynasty had 320 years of experience, and what impractical dregs we had to abandon. The most important thing is that we must follow the current guidance of Zhao Guanjia and establish a newer and better system for the Song Dynasty."
