Yu Qiuping never noticed before that the army could actually walk so slowly.
Yu Qiuping used to think that even if a person only walks for 5 kilometers per hour, there is always 40 kilometers per day. Facts have proved that his Chang Panbei is indeed capable of doing this. As long as the order is to move forward, no one dares to stop and rest. Everyone lined up in an orderly line, and walked forward quickly with strict discipline.
However, the military and military assistants summoned him really made him desperate.
After lunch, everyone sat on both sides of the road to rest. When the time was almost over, Yu Qiuping came to Chang Panbei and shouted: "The rest is over! Everyone - gather!"
The teenagers who were leaning together one by one and lying on the ground and resting lazyly, immediately put away the water hyacinth and dry food in their hands, flew up, and stood in line in five four-row rows. Before the countdown of Yu Qiuping for 30 seconds, they all returned to their positions and failed to catch a push-up. Chang Panbei's soldiers stood attentively and welcomed Yu Qiuping's inspection.
"Very good!" Yu Qiuping praised, "Everyone - take a break!"
Then, Yu Qiuping walked behind the team and asked the auxiliary soldiers to get up and line up.
"Everyone has gotten up, everyone has gotten up, and I'm going to go on the road!" Yu Qiuping's order immediately aroused a lot of complaints. Except for a few dozen people who were standing by Yu Qiuping's side slowly stood up, the others were all on the ground.
"Sir, I'm so tired!" a auxiliary soldier complained, "We have walked for more than ten miles a morning, and we really can't walk!"
"It's not much for more than ten miles. I originally wanted to walk eighty miles today." Yu Qiuping said, "All of them."
"Eighty miles!" several auxiliary soldiers shouted in surprise, "The flag team in our main hall can't do it!"
"Yes, sir," another auxiliary soldier not far from Yu Qiuping leaned against a big rock and complained lazily, "Let us rest for a while."
"I have been resting several times along the way." Yu Qiuping urged patiently, "None of the soldiers was tired, why are you complaining about being unhappy?"
"We are carrying the complete qualities of those soldiers. Of course they are not tired." The auxiliary soldiers stood up slowly, complaining constantly, and lined up slowly.
"Chang Panbei obeys the order!" Yu Qiuping couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, "Take back the full from the auxiliary soldiers and put on the marching by himself!" Yu Qiuping said sternly. Chang Panbei's soldiers immediately turned into two columns under the command of the generals. In the shocked eyes of the civilians, they took the full one after another and turned back to their original position and put on the full one.
Yu Qiuping glanced at the auxiliary soldiers who were still scattered and could not form the formation. He sighed and ordered the troops to march.
The soldiers walked very fast, but the auxiliary soldiers behind them were like snails crawling. They gathered together in groups of three or three, chatting and chasing and fighting from time to time. Now they have no bearing, and they are making fun of each other. Every time Yu Qiuping rode back to urge him, the auxiliary soldiers and civilians apologized and agreed with great pleasure. When Yu Qiuping turned around, he became free and casual again.
But in Japan, samurai generally do not blame the auxiliary soldiers too much. Because these auxiliary soldiers are all male soldiers collected from their own territory, and the deaths are all due to their own losses.
Even though he put on heavy work, Yu Qiuping's Changpan's preparations still stopped and waited for the auxiliary soldiers for a long time every time he walked out of the land, which undoubtedly greatly slowed down the progress of the troops.
Finally, Yu Qiuping, who could not bear it, shouted loudly to Amano Keidu, untied the samurai sword around his waist, and handed it to Amano Keidu.
"Jingde! Take this sword and go to the end of the team." Yu Qiuping said sternly, "You can deal with anyone who falls behind for more than 20 meters!"
Keidu Amano sneered and respectfully took the samurai sword. The crow on his shoulders whistled twice in response to the situation, which made people feel even more chilling. He urged the horse to come slowly from the side of the official road to the auxiliary soldiers, and put the knife on his waist, but it was even more creepy than holding it in his hand.
"No, it's the crow judge." The men collected from Yuqiuping's territory told the men near Jun Mansion, "That guy is unkind, like a stone, killing without blinking!" After the auxiliary soldiers buzzed and talked, they immediately became much more honest and followed the team obediently.
Amano Keidu urged the horse slowly, and anyone who was approached by him would be frightened and rushed forward a few steps to follow the army. Amano Keidu's face without any expression is undoubtedly the best deterrent.
As of that night, the entire army had traveled a total of 46 miles, roughly halfway from Junfu City to Guchuan City, and camped in the wild.
"Jingde, the Japanese army can go far every day." While the squads were having dinner, senior generals gathered by a fire to discuss the things of the day.
"A normal army will have such slow-moving auxiliary soldiers, and their combat soldiers will not be very fast. They are temporarily recruited from the territory. How much discipline can they have?" Amano Keidu said in a low voice, "It's almost 40 miles a day, so it's still a marching in the territory. You don't have to carry too much dry food, you don't have to warn the surrounding situation, and you don't have to set up camp in advance."
"If you go out to war, the marching may even drop to more than twenty miles. If there is an enemy interfering nearby, it may drop further." Amano Keidu said the facts ruthlessly.
"Our Chang Panbei is so fast!" Ji Gang Shengzheng said excitedly, "If we didn't have those scoops, we could do it for seventy or eighty miles a day!"
"It depends on the training of the adults." Naoe Tadaehiro sighed, "This kind of discipline can be said to be no match for the whole world!"
"Don't just praise me," Yu Qiuping said embarrassedly, "I'd better think of a way to train these auxiliary soldiers well so that they don't slow down our pace."
"It's very difficult, sir." Fukushima Ahn Seizure said, "They are no better than us old brothers."
"Those who do not have chivalrous spirit will never be able to withstand such training." Charlie, who had been silent, suddenly interrupted.
"Sir, your practice is really helpful." Yudong Ogawa actually spoke.
"Oh my God, you two of you are actually complaining. Is my training that scary? No, right?" Yu Qiuping asked in surprise.
"Yes." A few people around, except Amano Keito, nodded heavily.
"Those days were simply nightmare!" Mimaezaki Nakahide accused with tears in her face, "I don't know how many push-ups I did! I didn't even have the strength to get up in the morning, and my hands didn't look like my own!"
"If the adults hadn't asked us to train like this, and if other people dared to let me practice like this, I would slap him to death!" Jigang Shengzheng also shouted loudly, "Do you still treat us as human beings!"
"It's just hell," Charlie added again.
"We have to practice for more than a hundred days. We have to stand in military postures every day, change queues, and various training methods that we have never heard of before!" Mimaezaki Nakahide waved his hands, "It's really a way to practice people to death! I will never forget those orders even if I die!"
As soon as the words fell, Mimaezaki Nakahide immediately shouted: "Standing at the sight!" The few people who were caught off guard, except Yu Qiuhei and Amano Keito, subconsciously joined together and made a stand-at-at-at-at-at-at-hook. Then they suddenly realized and laughed loudly, and hit Mimaezaki Nakahide.
"How can such intensity and long-term training teach those civilians in a short time?" Mimaezaki Nakahide added.
"It's true. If the adults hadn't treated us as kind as a mountain and had such a high prestige, they wouldn't believe that the training method would be useful, let alone practice seriously." Fukushima Ansei said.
"Also, this training requires all the teamwork together. If anyone doesn't practice well, it will destroy the team." Naoe Tadaehiro added, "We brothers are born and die together, and are also humble, so we have the momentum of sharing the same hatred for the enemy. Those people are in kinship and seniority, and there are countless small groups, how to expect them to work together."
"I think the most important part of these is the chivalrous spirit of the adults." Charlie said again, "Gods treat people equally, help everyone gain freedom, and treat everyone as brothers."
"There are no samurai or civilians among the samurai. The differences between superiors and subordinates are all determined to fight for the Yuqiu family and are proud of the Yuqiu family." Fukushima Ansei said proudly, "It is this equal treatment that allows everyone to develop such good discipline."
"Haha, after hearing what you said, why do I think I am so amazing?" Yu Qiuping laughed, "I won't say that anymore. Everyone go to bed early and continue on the road tomorrow."
After giving up the plan to train auxiliary soldiers, Yu Qiuping and others rushed to Kagawa day and night. On the evening of January 28, they finally arrived at Kagawa Castle Town. Asahina Taehyung, who had been waiting for a long time, welcomed everyone into the city and arranged a temporary barracks for them to station.
"Hey, you are getting better and better." Kanetaehyung looked at Yu Qiupi's soldiers and exclaimed, "Look at that step and the square formation, it's so neat!"
"It's not okay to be neat, you have to be able to fight." Yu Qiuping smiled bitterly.
"What, do you understand?" Asahitaehyung hit Yuqin hard. "How good should Changban be in command of this prohibited kung fu on the battlefield! If you want to gather, gather and turn if you want to turn!" Asahitaehyung said sourly, "You must think it's nothing. But do you know that it takes a long time for me to make my troops turn around on the battlefield to evacuate the position! When formation changes, if it is not done well, it will give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of it, and it will take a lot of effort to gather the troops."
