Jia Rong asked these instructors to go back and do more ideological work on these young soldiers. After all, they are still children and will miss home after being away from home for a long time.
After lunch, Jia Rong went to General Zhu again and told him a series of his ideas, including the issue of extra meals for the soldiers. After hearing this, General Zhu agreed to Jia Rong's idea without much thought and gave him a
Jia Rong's strong support allowed him to go ahead and do it.
General Zhu's behavior surprised Jia Rong, and he even liked General Zhu a lot. This General Zhu looked good too.
In fact, Jia Rong didn't know that this was the credit of Mr. Zhang. When he saw that Jia Rong's method was feasible, he told General Zhu about it. He told General Zhu that if this training method was really effective, then all the credit would be given.
It's not all his.
General Zhu always had great trust in Mr. Zhang. After hearing what Mr. Zhang said, he was very excited and agreed.
So, Jia Rong felt that everything went so smoothly today.
Jia Rong came to the kitchen and conveyed General Zhu's intention; he divided the food in the kitchen into third-class meals. First-class rice: two white steamed buns and a bowl of broth; second-class rice was the same as usual, two steamed buns and one bowl.
Porridge; as for the third-class rice, it is a steamed bun and a bowl of porridge; in order to achieve the purpose of training rewards and punishments.
Throughout the afternoon, the training in the field was in full swing, everyone was striving for a spot in the good square formation; while Jia Rong was patrolling all the way, guiding the deficiencies in the training of each square formation.
Mr. Zhang, who was not far away, also praised the practice after seeing the training effect, saying that Jia Rong's method was good.
When we gathered at the end of training in the afternoon, it was completely different from what we had in the morning. Although it was still not as good as expected, it already showed that everyone worked very hard.
First, Jia Rong asked everyone to stand in a military posture. After about 10 minutes of military posture, Jia Rong selected a good square formation and a bad square formation; the good square formations were the first, seventh, and eighth square formations, and the bad square formations were
The square arrays are the fifth, ninth, and tenth square arrays.
After being selected, some people were happy and some were worried. The young soldiers in the square array who were rated as good were extremely happy; the young soldiers in the square array who were rated as poor were like roosters that had been defeated in a fight, dejected, and even their
The instructor's face was also ugly.
At this time, Jia Rong walked up to the high platform in front of the training ground and waved his hands to signal everyone to be quiet. This time, the quiet was relatively fast. It seemed that the training effect was very obvious.
Jia Rong nodded with satisfaction and said: "Everyone's performance was very good today. I hope you can keep up the good performance of the phalanx. Don't be discouraged by the soldiers of the phalanx who are rated as poor. You are a man. If you can afford it, you can put it down. Next time
Work hard to get a good ranking, and I believe you will achieve good results next time."
When eating, the phalanx was divided into three parts according to the original plan.
When the people in the poor square formation saw that the soldiers in the good square formation were eating white steamed buns and drinking broth, they were greedy, but there was nothing they could do about it. They could only secretly cheer in their hearts that they must choose a good square formation next time and eat white bread.
Steamed buns and broth.
Not only were the soldiers cheering for being rated as a good phalanx, but even their coaches were smiling when they walked, feeling very proud.
Seeing such results, Jia Rong was sincerely happy. He believed that only through comparison can progress be achieved.
After dinner, Jia Rong called each coach into his own room to talk; during this period, he praised the phalanxes that performed well and also encouraged the instructors of the phalanxes that performed poorly to prevent them from having bad emotions.
At the same time, Jia Rong demonstrated to them the training of squatting and sitting postures, and also let them practice walking in unison. He especially emphasized military discipline and must follow orders and prohibitions. As for the forward step of later generations of troops, Jia Rong did not teach them because
He feels that these are not needed at this stage.
After each coach had no doubts about these movements, Jia Rong asked them to go back to rest and think carefully about how to train the square they were in.
The next day, the various formations were training in full swing, and the sounds of beatings, scoldings, and shouts from the coaches could be heard one after another in the sky above the training ground.
After last night's meal, the competition between the various phalanxes became even more intense. The soldiers in the inferior phalanx drank broth and ate white steamed buns. They felt very uncomfortable because they were both soldiers and didn't want to eat them.
They were worse than others, so they secretly encouraged themselves; the soldiers who performed well yesterday naturally wanted to keep their achievements, and they also wanted to drink broth and eat white steamed buns again.
This kind of training atmosphere is what Jia Rong wants to see most.
After several days of training, no matter what, this unit is already very different from when they first arrived. They are able to follow orders and prohibitions, know how to stand in a military posture, how to observe military discipline, and have some momentum when walking in unison.
Yes, this is inseparable from Jia Rong's efforts.
After today's training, Jia Rong came to Mr. Zhang's barracks; because he saw the results of Jia Rong's training, Mr. Zhang was extra polite to Jia Rong this time.
Seeing Jia Rong coming, he hurriedly greeted him and said, "I wonder what important business Coach Jia has here?"
Seeing Mr. Zhang's enthusiasm, Jia Rong hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "Mr. Zhang, you're welcome. I think the military training has begun to bear fruit after these few days, and we can train other items; such as some military gun essentials.
We can start training them with arrows and other things."
Mr. Zhang thought for a while and said: "In that case, I will give you 100 army sergeants, and you will assign them to train these soldiers; but these soldiers only need to learn how to use guns, and they will not be able to learn more."
of."
From Mr. Zhang's words, Jia Rong also heard that he had something to hide, but Jia Rong still said gratefully: "Thank you, Mr. Zhang, I will do my best to complete this matter."
After hearing this, Mr. Zhang waved his hand and said, "You're welcome. I heard that Coach Jia is from Lijia Village. I see that your conversation is extraordinary. Where did you learn from him?"
"Sir, just call me Zhiyuan from now on. My master is from the mountains and fields. I don't want others to know his surname. Please forgive me, sir." Jia Rong said. Jia Rong knew that people in ancient times had characters, so he thought of a pseudonym for himself.
; Taking the meaning from "aim high and keep high", I also made up a mountain teacher for myself, adding a certain sense of mystery to my identity.
Mr. Zhang waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, my master must be a strange person in the mountains and wild places. Zhiyuan? I don't know what to explain?"
"Aspirations should be high" was what Zhuge Liang said later. Of course, people today have a hard time understanding what he meant.
Jia Rong explained: "Aim high!"
After hearing this, Mr. Zhang clapped his hands and said: "A good person should have high aspirations and good words. I wonder what his ambition is?"
Jia Rong thought for a while and then said: "A real man should learn from Wei, Huo, drive out the Xiongnu, fight on the battlefield, and protect his family and country."
What he said was so righteous that even Mr. Zhang was very excited after hearing it and said: "Zhiyuan's ambition is indeed extraordinary."
Jia Rong asked humbly: "I haven't asked you your surname, sir?"
Mr. Zhang said seriously: "I dare not say that you are noble. My surname is Zhang and my given name is Zirong."
After all this, Jia Rong became more familiar with this Mr. Zhang. After all, he was now working under the name of the general named Zhu, and this Mr. Zhang, from the attitude of General Zhu towards him, we could know that Mr. Zhang was determined to
He is his confidant.
Building a good relationship with Mr. Zhang will be of great benefit to Jia Rong, not to mention that Mr. Zhang is also a very good person.
"Zhiyuan, if nothing happens, go ahead and implement your military training strategy; don't worry, if the military training is good, I will definitely ask for your credit in front of General Zhu, and I will also recommend it to him after meeting Magistrate Li.
Yours." Mr. Zhang said.
After hearing this, Jia Rong was also very happy. Being able to have a relationship with County Magistrate Li, this Mr. Zhang must be not simple, and he became more determined to make friends with him.
According to Mr. Zhang's explanation, Jia Rong approached General Zhu and asked for a hundred military athletes.
Hearing that Jia Rong said it was Mr. Zhang's intention, General Zhu said nothing and asked Jia Rong to take his handwritten letter to the magistrate Li's important person. This shows that Mr. Zhang is definitely General Zhu's confidant.
With General Zhu's handwritten letter, Jia Rong walked towards the county government office in the city. About a quarter of an hour later, Jia Rong arrived at the county government office and inquired along the way to find the residence of County Magistrate Li.
With blue bricks and red tiles, the roof is more than three feet higher than the surrounding residents. At first glance, it looks like the residence of a wealthy person.
Jia Rong stepped forward and knocked lightly on the door knocker. Soon there was a "squeak" sound, the red painted door opened a crack, and an old man over fifty years old walked out.
Seeing Jia Rong, he asked, "I wonder what your master is doing?"
"I, a coach under General Zhu, came today with General Zhu's letter to discuss important matters with County Magistrate Li. I beg the old man to be accommodating." Jia Rong replied respectfully. As the so-called seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister,
He didn't want to delay his military training plan because of a trivial matter.
The old man looked at Jia Rong carefully again and said, "Give me the letter. I will take it to show the master. Please take it with you for a while."
Jia Rong hurriedly held up his hands and said: "You have work, you have work."
After about a cup of tea, the old man just walked out of the house and said to Jia Rong: "Master, please come."
Jia Rong thanked him and followed the old man into the mansion. There were various flowers, plants and trees planted in the mansion, giving people a fresh feeling. The layout of the mansion looked like it was made by famous artists.
After a while, Jia Rong followed the old man to the place where the county magistrate lived; the old man motioned for Jia Rong to go in, while he stood waiting outside the door.
After entering the door, Jia Rong discovered that this was a study room; there were all kinds of books on the bookshelves. What was different from his time was that the books were all made of piles of bamboo sticks.
Although paper had been invented in the Eastern Han Dynasty, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, paper had not been widely spread in the world. It was only spread among the upper class people. It was not until the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties that paper became common in the world.
Therefore, when people move at this time, they can load several carriages with just books, which is very troublesome.
