"What the heck! Say 'yes' or 'arrive'! Say it again!" Ding Guofeng glared at Yaichiro and said.
In the early morning, more than fifty people stood in five rows on the beach south of the camp. Sheng Haizhou, Jiuzang, Huji, Pan Xiucheng, and Elu all stood in the queue.
Ding Guofeng was holding a roster for roll call. Next to the names of all the refugees from the island country on the roster, the pinyin of their names was marked.
"Here we go!" After Katsu Kaishu's explanation, Yachiro tried his best to imitate Ding Guofeng's accent and said loudly.
"Forget it, let's do this for now," Liu Sheng said from behind. "For the first time, just learn to stand at attention and shout 'arrive'. I think these people all need to change their Chinese names, otherwise it will be too difficult to pronounce."
"Who says it's not? I think Lao Pan's name is the most in line with the normal standards."
"How fresh, Lao Pan is Chinese. Can it be the same?" Liu Sheng rolled his eyes at Ding Guofeng, and then he saw Pan Xiucheng touching his head and smiling.
"Don't laugh! Did I order you to laugh? You all remember this and explain to those who don't understand. If you don't have my order here, even if you fart, you should hold it back!" Liu Sheng
Standing in front of the team, roaring angrily.
"Hahahaha~~~" All the men, women and children who were watching were laughing with joy as they watched Liu Sheng angrily reprimanding a group of men.
"Go, go, go~~" Liu Sheng waved his hand at these onlookers, and several children imitated his example, waving and gesticulating.
"Sheng Haizhou!"
"arrive!"
"Let these people do whatever they have to do!"
What? What?
Sheng Haizhou had only learned Mandarin for a short time, and he couldn't understand Liu Sheng's tongue-twisting order. What are you trying to do, sir?
"Just let them disperse and don't stay here." Wang Yuanfang took a look and quickly stepped forward to explain to Sheng Haizhou.
"Oh. 'What are you doing?' That's what it means." Sheng Haizhou looked understanding and ran over to attack people.
Liu Sheng looked at the chaotic scene in front of him and thought to himself, what a failure. After Sheng Haizhou returned to the team, he waved his hand: "Run~walk!"
More than fifty people, plus Liu Sheng, Wang Yuanfang, Ding Guofeng, and Wu Siyu, began to run around the camp for exercise.
An hour later, except for those who insisted on running and exercising on Bear Island, all the newly recruited refugees were staggering tiredly. Jiuzang, Huji and others, imitating Wang Yuanfang's behavior, kept urging these people to get up slowly.
Go. If you don't obey, just kick them up with your feet.
Wang Yuanfang looked at the scene in front of him and said to Liu Sheng: "I don't think this matter should be rushed. In the first week, we will start physical training first, and then learn Mandarin. If physical fitness and language cannot get along, our subsequent training will be very troublesome."
"
Liu Sheng nodded and could only do this for now.
So, the day after Zhao Xin left, the fifty-person "security team" began the nightmare process of running in the morning, learning Mandarin in the morning, continuing to run in the afternoon, and learning Mandarin again in the evening.
As Yaichiro walked back to the tent, his legs were shaking from exhaustion. His mind kept thinking about the words "yes", "arrive", and "understand" that were taught in class in the evening.
"Master, are you back?" Under the torch outside the tent, Yachiro's wife saw that the figure not far in front looked like her man, so she tried to ask.
"Arrived!" Yachiro instinctively stood at attention and shouted.
"Ah~ What's wrong with you?" The wife was startled by her man.
"Ah? Alas~~" Yachiro finally realized that he was home. The whole day was so troublesome that everyone was stunned by the torment.
He looked at his wife and asked, "It's so late, why aren't you sleeping yet?"
"Don't we have something to say when you come back?" My wife rolled her eyes at Yaichiro and continued: "Today, the female doctors came to deliver medicine twice more. I see that Taro's illness has obviously improved."
When Yaichiro heard this, the big stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground. "That's great!"
My wife was also very happy and said: "They said that I have to take another pill tomorrow. And starting from tomorrow, I will give Tarang a bowl of mare's milk every day, saying it will supplement his health."
After hearing this, Yaichiro suddenly felt a surge of warmth in his heart, and said in a trembling voice: "The masters are so kind to us."
The wife raised her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes a few times, and said with a choked sob: "No, I have been eating rice and wheat noodles these days. I think they are better than what the samurai men here eat. You have to work hard as a boss."
"
"Yeah. You have to work hard."
Early the next morning, after fifty people finished running, they were taken to have breakfast by Katsu Kaishu. Many people took the tray with breakfast and saw that there was an egg in it.
A refugee asked suspiciously: "Is this an egg?"
Sheng Haizhou nodded and said: "From today on, you will eat one every morning."
"Give us something to eat?!" Except for the original old man, all the new refugees were stunned.
The poor people all over the world have always been the same. They cannot eat the food they have worked so hard to grow; they cannot eat the eggs laid by the poultry they have raised so hard.
These things were either paid annual tribute or rent, or were purchased by merchants. With the money exchanged, the farmers had to buy salt and seeds. Only in this way could they survive on the taro and radish they planted.
Eat enough.
(In the TV series "Axin", Ashin's family ate carrot rice every day, and neither the girls nor the elderly had enough to eat. It was already the beginning of the 20th century.)
The eyes of the refugee who asked the question first had turned red. He carefully put the tray back on the table, squatted on the ground and hugged it with his arms, buried his head and began to cry.
"What's wrong?" Liu Sheng and others came over and asked Sheng Haizhou.
"Sir, they, they have never eaten eggs." Jiuzang stood aside and suddenly explained.
"This..." Liu Sheng and others were all stunned. They had never had this kind of life experience. Young people like Wang Yuanfang who came from rural areas, even if their families were not wealthy when they were young, they could always eat an egg every day.
Arrived.
Liu Sheng sighed, walked to the crying refugee, squatted down, and patted his shoulder with his hand.
Jiuzang also came over, knelt down and said to the refugee: "Actually, before I was taken in by adults, I lived the same life as you. Ordinarily, I am not as good as you. At least you all have family around you, and the people in my family are
, are all starved to death.”
The refugee gradually stopped crying and looked up at Jiuzang.
Jiuzang said firmly: "My lord saved me, gave me food, clothing, and even gave me a samurai sword. Do you think we can be worthy of your lord if we don't train hard?"
Hu Ji suddenly cursed: "You bastard, stand up! Don't cry like a woman. If you are a man, you have to work hard. Only in this way can you repay your lordship."
Several other refugees said with tears: "Dingci, stand up like a man!"
The young man named Sadaji wiped a few tears with his sleeves, stood up, picked up the tray with food from the table, walked to the table, sat down, and ate heartily.
Yachiro's eyes were also red. He thought of his wife telling him last night that the female doctor would give Taro a bowl of mare's milk every day; today she also said that he would be able to eat eggs every day from now on.
So be it, even if adults ask him to kill people and set fires, as long as his wife and children can live like this every day, he will accept it.
The refugees sitting at the long table carefully picked up the eggs on the tray and looked up at each other.
Yaichiro, who had already thought about it clearly, didn't think too much at all. He picked up the egg and knocked it lightly, peeled it clean in a few times, and then bit off most of it in one bite.
"It's so delicious!" He looked at the others with a smile. "Eat them all, why are you so stunned?"
"Okay! He is qualified to be an instructor." Liu Sheng patted Jiuzang on the shoulder and said with a smile.
"What is a 'knowledge member'?" Jiuzang raised his hand and scratched his temples, not understanding at all.
After hearing this, Sheng Haizhou decided to break the casserole and ask the question. He took a few steps, caught up with Liu Sheng and asked, "Mr. Liu, what is a knower?"
"It's not an instructor, it's an instructor." After Liu Sheng explained, he saw that Sheng Haizhou still didn't understand, so he stretched out his hand.
Sheng Haizhou immediately understood what Liu Sheng meant. During the New Year celebrations on Bear Island, the two of them relied entirely on text to communicate normally.
Liu Sheng took the notebook and pencil from Sheng Haizhou and wrote the word "instructor" on the notebook.
Sheng Haizhou looked at the three words on the notebook and asked quickly: "What official position is this?"
Liu Sheng smiled and pointed to his head: "Ideological work. So that the soldiers can train and fight better."
Sheng Haizhou thought for a while, then looked at the words in the notebook, as if he had some realization.
After consulting Liu Siting's opinion, the six-person team of the Security Department decided to improve the nutritional level of the fifty recruits under their command as soon as possible. Therefore, in addition to an egg in the morning, meat appeared in the meals at noon and evening. At noon, it was usually red meat, and occasionally at night.
There will be fish.
This meat comes from the fishing and hunting harvests of Lu Shoushan, Yalha, Serdan and Hengji. Sometimes one or two people from the security department will come to help.
As the weather gets warmer, a large number of foraging animals begin to appear in the virgin forest around Beihai Town. There are moose, sika deer, wild boar, roe deer, and Liu Sheng once even saw a tiger from a distance.
When Serdan and the others hunted, they always chose adult male animals to hunt; while for those females and young animals, they often allowed them to escape. This point made Liu Sheng, Wang Yuanfang and others chat with each other.
I couldn't help but sigh, saying that this is a real hunter who never kills indiscriminately.
Hengji asked Lu Shoushan to help him get a lot of thin ropes. After he used these ropes to weave a fishing net, he took it to the river to fish every day, and the harvest was actually pretty good every time. Chen Qingsong found it very interesting when he saw it.
I will also bring a few refugees with me to help with fishing.
As more and more people were able to help, many of the original five hundred refugees began to recover, and their faces gradually became rosy.
Seeing this situation, Chen Qingsong decided to transfer the first two batches of 1,000 people into the camp. After that, the number of refugees disembarked from the Thor each time would increase to 800.
Seven days later, Zhao Xin came back with Doctor Hong. In addition to carrying a large amount of medicine and food, the ten heavy-duty draft horses were also brought back together.
Moreover, Zhao Xin told Liu Sheng and others the good news that the production of bullets was about to begin.
The content of this chapter has been adjusted, and all the content about the Qing army's landing on the island has been moved to the previous chapter.
But the trouble is that I can't change the name of this chapter myself, I have to find an editor.
By the way, every time I change it like this, I think of those who watch pirated copies and go crazy. :)
