Chapter 561 The new army with a difference (Part 1, seeking silver)
This is the first time that Su Xiaonuan and Lin Wanqing have come in person since the establishment of the militia.
So Su Xiaonuan and Lin Wanqing were a little surprised when they saw the soldiers standing on guard outside the military camp.
Especially the soldiers on the left and right in front of the gate saluted Jiang Fan. This was the first time for Su Xiaonuan and Lin Wanqing to see each other.
Although I feel that this kind of etiquette of holding the five fingers together and straightening them towards one's temple is very weird, I have to say... the whole process of saluting is quite clean and neat, and has an inexplicable sense of beauty.
In addition, the soldiers on guard duty, except for moving when saluting, looked like sculptures at other times. They looked straight ahead and did not move at all. This extremely quiet state was also full of inexplicable momentum.
Su Xiaonuan and Lin Wanqing were very surprised.
"Kneeling and saluting are not allowed within the militia, and kneeling on one knee has been abolished. Both officers and ordinary soldiers must salute like just now. When subordinates see their superiors, they should give priority to saluting, and the superiors should return the salute in the same way.
It was a strict requirement, and when it was first implemented, it took a full week for them to get used to it completely."
Jiang Fan explained with a smile.
"Why should the kneeling ceremony be abolished? From ancient times to the present, both the army and the court have to kneel down and pray."
Lin Wanqing asked curiously.
"If this person is used to kneeling, it will be difficult to stand up again. Moreover, soldiers need to be brave and fearless when fighting in wars. If you ask him to kneel down when he meets everyone, how can you cultivate that kind of bravery?
momentum?"
Jiang Fan said casually.
Of course, this was just an excuse to fool Lin Wanqing.
The real reason is entirely because when Jiang Fan formulated the training standards for the militia, he simply copied the training methods for soldiers in his own world without any change.
It's not that he is lazy, the main reason is that Jiang Fan feels that those things are the essence condensed after the baptism of the most severe war. Any modification will seem to make those things nondescript, which is really unnecessary.
When we entered the military camp, we saw a queue coming towards us.
Five people in a row, ten people in a column, a square formation of fifty people, marching forward in a very standard walking posture, carrying long guns and swinging their arms.
An officer leading the team shouted the slogan "121", while the fifty soldiers moved in unison!
Not only is the frequency of leg lifts exactly the same, there is no difference in even the amplitude of the steps!
Seeing these fifty people walking as one, Su Xiaonuan and Lin Wanqing both opened their mouths subconsciously.
I have never seen an army like this! How... was it done?!
"Queue training helps to improve the soldiers' ability to cooperate with each other and allows them to get used to the prohibitive combat requirements. The effect I hope to achieve is that when I ask them to move forward, they will have to frown even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead.
Stride forward without a frown. When I ask them to stop, even if there are thousands of horses galloping behind them, they will stand still without hesitation."
As the queue passed by, Jiang Fan looked at Su Xiaonuan and Lin Wanqing, who were stunned, and explained with a smile.
There are many such queues in the military camp, and they are obviously conducting daily training under the leadership of various grassroots officers.
The entire military camp was filled with a chilling atmosphere from inside to outside. Although it has not been a long time since the establishment of this team until now, the training effect is very significant.
They are all a group of homeless refugees. Jiang Fan's ability to take them in is equivalent to giving them a second life.
In addition to the very hard training here, the food, drink, and accommodation are all unimaginably generous, and even those with the most outstanding performance can be rewarded with money.
For the vast majority of refugees, this is simply a fairy-like day.
As for training being hard... these refugees agree very much with what their chief instructor said. The more you sweat during training, the less you will bleed during war!
No matter how harsh the training is, it is all so that they can survive by relying on their own abilities in future battles! In the end, it is for their own good!
Therefore, there are not many people who are lazy during the training process, but they are very few, and those very few are being cleared out of the militia one after another.
The remaining militiamen know very well how regretful those who were cleared out are and how miserable life is outside, and they cherish the opportunities they have now even more!
And when it comes to things like fighting, the refugees don't resist much.
No one is stupid. Whatever you want to get, you have to pay accordingly. Everyone understands this simple and simple truth.
Compared with what they got, all they could give was their physical strength and their lives. Instead of running away all day without any hope, they might as well rely on their own fists to fight for a future!
Moreover, with the deepening of training, these militiamen gradually lost their refugee aura and began to look more and more like real soldiers. On the contrary, they began to be eager to fight.
How can the skills they have developed show their true value without fighting?
No matter how hard you train, the rewards and promotions you can receive are ultimately limited.
Only by fighting in wars and making meritorious deeds can you earn more money and get more opportunities for promotion!
"Brother Jiang Fan, you are so powerful. Are these people...really refugees before? What kind of spell did you cast on them? How long did it take to change their appearance?"
Lin Wanqing hugged Jiang Fan's arm and asked with admiration on her face.
"Actually, it is not difficult to make a person completely different from before. As long as you give them enough hope and let them see the opportunity to change their current life situation, then as long as this person is still somewhat motivated,
They will all work hard.”
Jiang Fan said with a smile.
Su Xiaonuan on the side nodded thoughtfully.
Because he thought of the Lin family's own situation.
Before Jiang Fan appeared, the entire Lin family had been lifeless for who knows how many years.
The biggest thing every day is how to fill our stomachs.
But with the appearance of Jiang Fan, the Lin family underwent earth-shaking changes in a very short period of time.
Not to mention anything else, just that those tribesmen are much more serious about training their martial arts cultivation than before!
In the past, when they were still worried about their stomachs, the Lin family members were not really too concerned about cultivation.
The reason why we have reached our current overall strength is entirely because our talents are so good and each has an extremely excellent inheritance.
But with the emergence of Jiang Fan, this phenomenon is undergoing fundamental changes!
Although it has only been a few months, the realm and strength of the people in the Kelin family have actually improved significantly compared to a few months ago!
And this kind of progress and improvement is not for one person or a few people, but for the entire Lin family!
