"Wang Er, keep up the pace before running around again. Don't eat lunch when you get to the place." May Youliang stood at the side and rear of the team, shouting a slogan loudly to remind his soldiers to keep up the rhythm.
In Xishan, the capital, the First Brigade of the New Army of the Yongwei Camp is holding an armed cross-country training. In late October, the three main regiments of the First Brigade and the direct armed forces of the Canadian Brigade were all formed. The training of the troops began to become formal. In addition to queue training,
, armed marches, ordnance drills, and combat array drills were all added.
The emperor kept a very close eye on the armed march. Ten miles a day was a regular course, and from time to time he would arrange emergency marches in the field for training.
Field training is the most hated subject of the new army. Xishan is more than thirty miles away from Xiyuan Military Camp. The emperor's requirement is that everyone must arrive fully armed in the morning. During this period, random inspections of other subjects will be arranged. For example, by
Marching as a whole team, turning into a triangular formation to advance, or forming a formation on the spot to build a defensive offensive during the march, etc.
The most pitiful thing is to suddenly order the team to return to the camp as quickly as possible, or to reach the destination. The assessment is conducted on a group basis. The group that arrives the fastest and maintains the neatest formation will receive more meat and meals, while the return speed
The slowest and most disorganized regiment could only eat coarse grains and had to do 200 push-ups before resting.
"Platoon leader, do you think His Majesty will suddenly ask us to evacuate to the camp today?" After running for so many steps, Wang Er has improved his breathing and physical strength. Now he is carrying a bedding bag on his back, holding a spear in his hand, and his head
Wearing a helmet and cloth armor, he can still run calmly and talk nonsense in his spare time.
"Don't make blind guesses about the Holy Will, which means that we should suddenly return to camp, and we have to run as fast as we should. You stick, stop being so nagging and delaying the progress of our platoon. Let's see how I deal with you." Mayu Liang said to his platoon.
There was a guy like Wang Er in there, and he had a lot of headaches. He had diarrhea during training, didn't eat enough, and he was in his forties, so he had a lot to do.
More than 3,000 people in the whole brigade were running forward. The cavalry scouts were running back and forth, the infantry was running quickly, and the dust was flying all over the sky. The momentum of the team was very scary. The sun was about to rise to the middle, and the destination was right in front of us.
Suddenly, an urgent shout came from the front: "Quick, there is an enemy situation ahead, form a formation quickly!"
Enemy situation? Where did the enemy situation come from? The people who were running desperately were a little panicked by the sudden news.
Mayu asked them to line up at the front of the team. The cavalry scout ran over and shouted the order before turning back to the rear of the team, leaving them alone.
Just as they were hesitating, dust appeared in front of them, as if an enemy was really coming.
"Hurry up and disperse the formations. Each class and each group should quickly form formations." Mayu Liang was stunned for a while, and suddenly remembered what he wanted to do. He still couldn't understand why the enemy suddenly appeared. Everyone was unprepared today. When he went out
All you bring are wooden training equipment. How can you face the enemy like this?
Before the team had formed its formation, the so-called enemy troops were approaching. Taking a closer look, they were not members of the general's cadet team. Could they be the enemy?
Yes, they were temporarily captured as enemies of the Blue Army. Zhu Youjian carefully planned this exercise to see how well the new army could respond to emergencies after this period of training.
The person who came was a member of the general school. Ma Youliang was about to say hello to his classmates. When he saw this group of people, they rushed towards the team on horseback. Then they threw the clay pots from their horses and ignored them.
He hit Mayu Liang's soldiers without hesitation.
Are these people crazy? Although this thing cannot cause serious damage to armored infantry, it can still hurt people.
"What are you doing? Why is there still red water in the jar?" One of his classmates smashed a pottery jar into his pocket and dyed it red. Mayu Liang was very angry and yelled at these lunatics. But his classmates did not
Ignoring it, he passed it straight over and continued to smash the pots on the team behind.
Just as Mayu Liang was getting angry and was about to take his people to settle the score with his classmates in the general school, another group of people appeared in front of him. This group of people were wearing flying fish uniforms and should be the royal guards around the emperor.
"All those who were dyed red put down their weapons and lined up on the spot."
The confused Mayu Liang quickly organized his troops to stand in line. As soon as the team stood up, a man wearing a Jinyiwei Baihu uniform took out a notebook and wrote it down. "One group, one company, one row, out of the total forty-eight people, three
Fifteen people were obviously stained, and the remaining people also had red spots on their clothes, so it was determined that all of them were killed in action."
All members were killed? Only then did Mayu Liang roughly react. These students from the general school must be the enemy that the scout said. His own platoon was tricked by these grandsons!
"The entire first brigade is here to line up to receive His Majesty's review." An hour after being raided, Liu Yuanbin issued a general order to reorganize the team and welcome the emperor's arrival.
He only received the notice when the exercise was about to start, and learned about the subjects that the emperor would practice in this cross-country training. At that time, he knew that he was already free, and there was no time to arrange the arrangements, so the team encountered a surprise attack by the enemy.
The guards around the emperor just informed him of the raid and the losses of their brigade. Basically all the first regiment was judged to have been killed, and more than half of the second regiment was lost. Only the third regiment behind the team was in better condition, and no trainees were allowed.
The team rushed over. Even the armed forces directly under his brigade headquarters were dyed red. Looking at the large area of red in the team, Liu Yuanbin was in a bad mood. He was afraid that he would be scolded by the emperor.
.
"Brigadier Liu, are these the results of your military training in the past month or so? Once attacked by a team of two to three hundred students, the team became chaotic and disorganized, with more than a thousand casualties? Can such a team be pulled out to fight?"
As soon as Zhu Youjian arrived at the place where the new army was gathering, he started to troll people as expected. He originally expected that the new army would lose an inch, but he did not expect that the loss would be so heavy. In one surprise attack, a team of more than 3,000 people became
This bird-like appearance is simply vulnerable. Can such a team still have the strength to fight against the coming Qing Dynasty?
"The general is incompetent, please punish him."
"What's the point of talking about punishment now? I can tell you that you were negligent in preparation, but will the people of Ming Dynasty forgive you? Will the enemies of Ming Dynasty give you another chance? In this exercise, all officers leading troops were killed.
Yes, you will be dismissed and retained in office, and you will be punished with meritorious service. After you go back, immediately summarize the lessons from this failed exercise. If this happens again next time, everyone will be dismissed from the military and go back to the general academy to rebuild. When the repairs are completed, you can come back to lead the troops."
Mayuriang, who came back from training in the field, was in a very low mood. All members of his team were killed, and he became one of the people who were dismissed and retained. It was also unlucky enough that his team was in the front row, and he had no time to react and became cannon fodder.
There's no room for reasoning, it's too heartbreaking to suffer such a loss.
