Chapter 727 Hedong Army [Part 2]

Compared with steamed buns, steamed buns have meat and are fragrant; oil cakes have oil and are also fragrant. Therefore, since the steamed buns are limited and the oil cakes are not sold out, the steamed buns are only available in cups.

Rice porridge is no longer rare, and hot and sour soup has become everyone's first choice. In a small room behind the fence, Zhu Biao is also eating steamed buns and drinking hot and sour soup, and then listening to "Hot and Sour Soup" outside.

, Hot and Sour Soup” shouted one after another, and I suddenly felt as if I had returned to my previous life. At that time, every morning, wasn’t it the same scene in front of the breakfast selling spots all over the city in the streets and alleys?

In order to maintain the people's strength and productivity of the counties in Hedong as much as possible, Zhu Biao violated the following rules on the first day he entered Hedong: the new army will be recruited from refugees and refugees! At the same time, this can also better protect the recovery of the strength of the Hedong Army.

Situation. It has only grown step by step from the original 26,700 troops to the current 50,000 troops. Not only has the military strength increased by nearly double, but the headache is that new recruits are added like "adding fuel", which has greatly reduced the military strength.

This has improved the overall training level of the Hedong Army. Now it is displayed in the system bar, and Zhu Biao can clearly see: training 80, running-in 71. Compared with the original, it is completely different.

After leaving the training ground, Zhu Biao came to the recruit camp accompanied by Generals Li Panlong and Hu Yanqing.

Zheng Taoping, who was under Zhu Zhong, was currently the captain of the recruit battalion. At this time, he was standing in front of the military parade like an iron tower. Looking at the three thousand recruits in the audience, he shouted: "I heard you clearly. From today on, you are officially

Hedong Army. Seventeen rules and fifty-four cuts. Military rules and regulations must be firmly remembered in the heart. Otherwise, if you lose your head, you can't blame others." Because he knew that Zhu Biao was watching from outside, Zheng Taoping's spirit

Feeling particularly excited, he spread out the military discipline book in his hand and finished reading it in less than a quarter of an hour. Then he pointed at the west wall of the camp and told the recruits in the audience: "Military regulations and military disciplines are all posted there, so here they are.

You can read it yourself. It doesn’t matter if you are illiterate, the brothers next to you will read it to you. Tonight, everyone will also be given a copy, and you will have cultural classes from mid-morning to the last minute of the day.

Time." He waved his hand. Zheng Taoping didn't want to say more about this. In his opinion, it is a waste of time to let the soldiers read and write. "Now, I will tell you about the treatment of our Hedong Army, which is salary, silver and food."

"According to the order, all the soldiers of our Hedong Army will be divided into five levels." Zheng Taoping remembered his surprise when he heard this for the first time. An ordinary soldier could be divided so finely. It simply broke their minds.

The key to the formation of the past. You must know that although the entire Northern Han Army has multiple strata such as county soldiers, border troops, and forbidden troops, the soldiers within each stratum are only divided according to types of arms: cavalry, infantry, archers, and weapon troops.

Baggage, heavy troops, etc. Soldiers of each type of arms receive the same amount of money.

Sure enough, the recruits below immediately started talking after hearing this. Like Zheng Taoping at the beginning, they had no such concept at all.

"Shut up, shut up. I read the military rules and regulations to you all in vain? Didn't you hear me? Anyone who talks without permission will be punished according to military disciplines, with ten sticks and ten laps around the playground."

This training ground is quite big, I'm afraid it would be a mile or two after one lap! Ten laps, it's just a joke! The angry noise suddenly quieted down.

"Which fifth class are they? You all heard me clearly. The lowest fifth class is the recruits, those who come out of the recruit training camp are the fourth class, and the veterans who have experienced a fight are the third class. The third class

Those who cannot be killed in a fight or beheaded at the first level are the second class, and the real elite are the first class. Those who are beheaded at the third class." Zheng Taoping paused, looking at the 3,000 pairs of eyes in the audience, and the corner of his mouth showed

He smiled slightly, knowing that this 'Fifth Class Soldier' ​​had touched everyone's hearts.

"The training for new recruits only lasts for three months. This level does not exist in combat troops. Therefore, no matter whether the infantry, cavalry or baggage is heavy, each person will receive two taels of silver and two buckets of rice and noodles per month.

Infantry. Those who come out of the new barracks are the fourth-class soldiers, each of whom is paid two taels of silver and five dou of rice and noodles per month; the third-class soldiers, who are paid three taels of silver and eight dou of rice and noodles per month; the second-class soldiers, each of whom is paid three taels of silver and one stone per month.

Rice and noodles; as for the first-class soldiers, each person will receive four taels of silver per month, rice and one stone. If you don’t want rice, you can also exchange it for silver taels according to the market price."

"The cavalry will increase by half as much as the infantry, and the baggage and heavy troops will decrease by three levels as the infantry."

In the current Hedong Army, 99% of the more than 20,000 new recruits are only fourth-class soldiers. However, among the 26,700 veterans, the worst is still a second-class soldier, and their number is less than 20% of the total. The rest of the army are all first-class soldiers.

of elite.

Although the monthly money of the Ma Bujun is not comparable to that of the Forbidden Army during the Taipei period, it is more than that of the frontier army, and it is definitely a high salary. The most rare thing is that the Hedong Army has never been idle, and has always received pensions for those who died in battle or were disabled.

, this is something that no other Forbidden Army would do.

The imperial court has no money, and the imperial army is still dragging out pay and suppressing money. Not to mention the honor of the army, but in terms of benefits, the current Hedong Army is also the first in the Northern Han Dynasty.

Moreover, in the Hedong Army, they are given generous rewards every year and festival, which is much more humane than other armies. As long as they can control themselves and not spend lavishly, they can send home a year's worth of rewards.

It’s not a big problem to go to Sanfuliang!

To appease the excitement of the recruits, Zheng Taoping said: "You are all brave warriors recruited by the Hedong Army. The Hedong Army has not moved much for a whole year since Zhu Shuai went south to the Central Plains, but now Zhu Shuai is back.

When the winter snow melts next year, fighting is indispensable. Whether you can save your life on the battlefield, whether you can be promoted to a second-class private, a first-class private, or even an officer will all depend on the three months of training in the new barracks.

Tiger or cat, just these three months."

"So, our captain will train you in different ways. And you all must remember clearly that obeying orders is the bounden duty of soldiers. In the next three months, you must obey and obey my orders unconditionally. Listen to them all.

Is it done?"

"I understand." The voices were not very neat, and Zheng Taoping could hear a hint of hope and greater anxiety on their part. Naturally, they were less loud.

"Do you understand?"

"I understand."

This time the voice was a little louder, but Zheng Taoping, who had a gloomy face, was still not satisfied.

"Do you understand?" he asked louder.

"I understand." The recruits already knew why the captain asked the question again and again, and shouted with all their strength. The repeated questions made the recruits' minds go blank for a while, and they only thought about what to do.

to answer. Moreover, the salary of a first-class soldier is an irresistible temptation for recruits who are refugees and refugees. With such salary, not only will they not have to worry about food and drink, they may even have their families.

Hope of rebuilding.

In today's society, thirty taels of silver is enough for a family of five to restart their family's life.

Continuing to frown, Zheng Tao's wolf-like eyes passed over the faces of the recruits in the audience, and he said sternly, "Listen to the command of our captain, and run to the top of the mountain to assemble within the time of a stick of incense. Those who are overdue can't do it."

The punishment is five sticks and the punishment is five rounds in the playground.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a soldier behind Zheng Taoping lit a stick of incense, got off the stage and climbed onto the horse next to him. He was the commander of the new barracks, and he had a different identity. No matter how reassuring he was, he couldn't get on the No. 11 bus.

followed and ran.

Following the recruits running towards the hillside were the teachers from the camp!

The recruits in the audience hurriedly ran to keep up. Under the leadership of officers at all levels, they lined up in a fairly neat line. The month at the training ground was not in vain.

It was a coincidence that Zhu Biao came back. The latest batch of soldiers from the Hedong Army's training ground happened to be packed up and sent to the new barracks. Zhu Biao had the opportunity to watch a show like this. He stood six or seven miles away from the playground with a cold face.

On the hill in the distance, the incense in hand was burned out, but only 80% of the recruits arrived on time, which meant that 600 people failed this small test. Looking at the panting soldiers in front of them

, Zhu Biao shook his head helplessly. He still needs to continue training!

Endurance. Endurance! The army must not only have combat power and speed, but also must have endurance.

Zhou Yunfei threw the letter away casually, and Zheng Taoping over there was already shouting loudly: "The time has passed, and those who fail to meet the time limit will be punished! The rest continue to train. Do you see the mountain in front?"

The recruits were panting heavily and dripping with sweat in the winter as they looked in the direction pointed by Zheng Taoping. There was a mountain top looming faintly in the thin morning mist, which was probably quite far away.

"This time, our captain will give you three sticks of incense to run from here to that hilltop. Cowards who fail to arrive on time will also be punished, and the punishment will be doubled!

Rest for a quarter of an hour, then emerge and start now.”

More than two thousand people sat paralyzed on the ground, and the cold ground could not stop their legs and wrists from weakening. A quarter of an hour later, under the loud shouts and urgings of the teachers from each department, they set off again and started running towards the goal.

The figures of the instructors were interspersed before and after. They kept yelling and cheering. For them, who have experienced many battles, cross-country running of this level is simply a piece of cake. The strong figures one after another are very...

Soon it looked blurry in the thin morning mist.

After another long-distance cross-country test, more than 400 people failed to arrive on time.

Spreading his legs, Zheng Taoping stood on the only path in the mountain like a door god, looking coldly at the recruits in front of him. They were obviously exhausted and panting like cows. Many of them collapsed helplessly on the cold ground.

It was on the ground and I didn't have the strength to move.

Anyway, he was lying all over the floor, sweating profusely, opening his collar, and fanning himself to dissipate heat.

"Get up, please, don't lie on the ground and act like a bear like a bitch." It was so cold and freezing that it was natural for them to be able to heat themselves up to this level, but a soldier should act like a soldier.

The less than two thousand recruits stood up with a roar and formed an orderly formation again under the urging of sixty instructors. Zheng Taoping was quite satisfied with them. Although the discipline was a little loose, he had to take care of it now.

It's just the physical strength of these soldiers. However, his face remained calm and his tone was still full of sternness. He said: "Everyone who opened their collars just now, get out of here."

After a long time, forty or fifty soldiers stood out in front of the formation, with a slight look of panic on their faces.

"You are promising. I read the military regulations and disciplines early in the morning. Did you listen to it?" Zheng Tao looked at these people expressionlessly, and his tone was actually very calm.

The panic on the faces of these soldiers was even more obvious. I wonder how Zheng Taoping will deal with them? Just now on the playground, Zheng Taoping said that he would train them in a different way. With his severity just now, they

This group of people were afraid that they would not get anything good to eat, so they all shrugged their heads and bowed their heads in silence.

"After dinner, everyone is forced to stand in military posture for half an hour."

"Everyone will start returning to camp after a quarter of an hour's rest. You all know how long it is until noon. There are regulations in the camp that meal time should not exceed a quarter of an hour. That is to say, if you cannot arrive within a quarter of an hour after the meal starts,

Return to the camp, and in the afternoon, you will have no choice but to train on an empty stomach. Dismissed!"

Zheng Taoping's words just fell. The exhausted recruits, who had already been tired and exhausted, became energetic and scurried out like eagles. They rushed down the mountain in a chaotic manner, lest they fall behind others. Compared with exhaustion,

, the feeling of being so hungry that your heart is in front of you and your back is even more terrible. If it is past the meal time when you arrive at the camp, training on an empty stomach all afternoon is no joke. They don't want to have a bad day because of this reason.

Zhu Biao shook his head. These guys are still in trouble. They don't understand the principle of sharpening a knife and chopping firewood. When it comes to the battlefield, they are like a swarm of swarms.

But there is still hope, there will be someone in the recruit camp who will teach them to be smart. There are still three months left, right?

Today's soldiers are all illiterate roughnecks. You can't just reason with them, you can only communicate with them in some straightforward ways. Let them know what can be done casually and what should never be done casually. Just like the military

It's a rule of thumb, it's useless even if you tell them a hundred times. Only by killing a few chickens and being ruthless will they remember it more firmly than anything else.

Zhu Biao believes that after three months, this group of new recruits who are both under 50 years old will become qualified soldiers.

Different from the general army, Zhu Biao has fundamental requirements for training and running-in. The system-increasing military formation is inseparable from the improvement of these two attributes.

At noon, Zhu Biao had a meal at the new barracks, and then went to the Jingwu Hall in a small town outside the county town.

Different from the Tang Dynasty King's Lecture Hall and the Yanwu Hall, the Jingwu Hall organized by Zhu Biao before he went to the Central Plains was a very pure training school for officers.

Just when a new batch of recruits were ushered in at the training ground of the new military camp, the Jingwu Hall, which was not far away from them, also welcomed its fourth batch of students. Although it was always in the initial stage, one batch was completed every three months.

The tutorials range from the senior class at the rank of captain to the lower class at the level of Duber and team leader, but they are all available.

Zhu Biao knew very well that when he had few troops, he could command everything. However, when he was in charge of one side and was destined to lead many troops, he could not rely only on himself. Xiang Yu also had a dragon.

Moreover, as for Zhongli Wei, Lu Bu also has Zhang Liao, and as for the eight talented generals, one person alone cannot win the title, nor can he produce a truly elite army.

So he had been urging Zhu Zhong and Zhu Tong to study military books long ago. Now, it is time for him to urge all the officers in the army.

The books of "Heirloom Art of War" exchanged from Beiping Chengdu have become the best teaching materials in Jingwu Hall. After Zhu Biao joined the army, his experience in large and small battle formations can also be found here. This is not just Zhu Biao's alone. , the other generals also have additional battle examples.

Interpreting battle cases, conducting sand table simulations, and integrating theory with practice have always been the main training methods of Jingwu Hall for students like Jingwu Hall.

There are thirty students in this middle class, seventeen military princes, and thirteen military commanders. They are divided into six groups according to the organization, and then two groups are divided into one small team, which is divided into three small teams. The leading instructor's surname is Wang. Wang Guang was originally a Sima of Zhu Biao's military camp. Zhu Biao was seriously injured in the battle against the Hu people when he first arrived in Hedong. Later, the bloody wound healed, but his body was broken and he could no longer fight on the battlefield. .

However, when Wang Guang stood there, his upright body still naturally revealed a chilling air, and his bright eyes flashed across the faces of the thirty students like knives. Even though it had been half a month since the class started, he was still Not many students dared to look at him for a moment, and they all avoided looking at him.

"As of today, you have been enrolled in school for half a month, and you have already covered all the subjects of military art and infantry. However, soldiers can't just talk without practicing, we have to do a demonstration!" Wang Guang said slowly. , the tone was easy-going, but the sudden change in his tone made the thirty students worried.

Wang Guang said coldly, "As the instructor of the middle class, I have the obligation to remind you that although you have passed the entrance selection and entered the Jingwu Hall, the real test begins today!"

"From now on, every day's demonstrations will be recorded, and each person will be scored based on their performance in the drill. This kind of demonstration will be common in the next two months, until you graduate. Only the scores will be given. Only when you reach sixty can you truly graduate and become a qualified mid-level officer.

As for those with less than 60 points, Zhu Shuai also has regulations, and they will all be downgraded."

All the students looked solemn, but no one showed fear. They had heard this for a long time. Those who can pass the selection examination and enter the Jingwu Hall, each of them is the best in the battalion. Everyone is also They are so confident that they don't believe that they won't be able to get those 60 points in three months.

The queue of students was silent. A sneer appeared on the corner of Wang Guang's mouth, he gestured to the two instructors standing solemnly behind him, and then said: "Everyone is here, turn backwards!"

The trainees were unprepared, but after serving in the army for many years, the basic commands of these military units have been engraved in their minds. Without a pause, they turned around collectively, facing a field covered with white snow. (Unfinished) To be continued.
