After two more days of rest, Wang Hengyue was able to move around on his own.
Staying in the house every day, I can hear the slogans of the New Army marching out early in the morning. Thinking about the New Army, my heart has been itching. At this time, the injury is no longer in the way, how can I continue to lie down?
Don't call anyone, just go out on your own.
"The team officer is here." Xie Shuixiang, the leader of the first platoon who was training, looked at Wang Hengyue and said hurriedly.
Wang Hengyue set a rule for them. He, as an "adult", was not worthy of his name. In the army, it was better to be called "Team Officer".
"It's okay, I'll just take a look. You should practice on your own." Wang Hengyue waved his hand and said.
The four platoons of the first team, plus the armed guards, took a look around and found that the drills were very different.
Xie Shuixiang, the leader of the first platoon, ordered his soldiers to divide into several teams and fight with each other. Xie Shuixiang yelled loudly from the side again. Anyone who didn't fight harshly would be scolded by him. These soldiers were really punching each other.
When it comes to meat, you really treat the other person as an enemy.
Li Yifeng, the platoon leader of the second platoon, held a Martini rifle and carefully explained to the soldiers the essentials of shooting. How to shoot, the standard shooting posture, etc., he explained it very carefully.
Xu Mu, the platoon leader of the third platoon, led the soldiers there to practice military skills hard. Throwing, climbing... As long as there was an action that was not perfect, he would be forced to do it again.
Liu Sihai, the platoon leader of the fourth platoon, made a wooden cannon at some point. Liu Sihai asked his brothers to gather around him and talk about the structure of the cannon, how to fire it, etc.
This man was originally a cannon student. Although he did not have a cannon at this time, Wang Hengyue had promised him that he would get a cannon. I am afraid that at this time, Liu Sihai was obsessed with cannons.
When we walked to the Armed Guards again, we saw a different scenery.
Yang Fangyun went to Chengdu, leaving the training of the armed guards to Deng Xia.
Although Deng Xia was knowledgeable, he was still young. Wang Hengyue was originally worried about whether Deng Xia could shoulder such a big responsibility alone, but when he saw it now, he was amazed.
Deng Xia did not ask the soldiers to train anything, but carefully explained the key points of attack, defense tips and so on. If the soldiers did not understand it once, Deng Xia would take the trouble to explain it again, making sure that they could master it.
Wang Hengyue quietly approached and found a stack of paper on the ground. He opened it and saw that it was actually a training outline. It recorded what to do every day, including what to do in the morning and what to do in the afternoon. Looking further down, there were even
Several lessons talk about the American Civil War, the Franco-Prussian War, and the successes and failures of China's several foreign wars.
"Deng Xia." When Deng Xia finished speaking, Wang Hengyue called out.
"Deng Xia is here!" Seeing the team officer coming, Deng Xia hurriedly asked the soldiers to rest and came to Wang Hengyue.
Wang Hengyue turned over the training outline in his hand: "Everyone is practicing seriously, why are you so calm?"
"Return to the team's mandarin." Deng Xia hurriedly said: "If a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his tools. Deng Xia is now teaching them how to attack, how to defend, and the key points. When they understand clearly in their hearts, they will get twice the result with half the effort when they practice.
!”
Wang Hengyue nodded: "What about this? American Civil War, Franco-Prussian War?"
"Deng Xia just selected a few typical battles and explained to the soldiers why they would win and what would lead to defeat, so that they could know what they were doing and learn from the strengths of the foreigners and reject the shortcomings of the foreigners."
"Okay, okay!" Wang Hengyue greatly appreciated and returned the outline to Deng Xia: "Originally, I was thinking of giving Yang Fangyun another important task and thinking about his successor. For now, I think I will let you be the commander of the armed guard.
.”
"Thank you, captain. Deng Xia will definitely live up to the expectations of the captain." Deng Xia did not refuse at all.
Wang Hengyue thought again: "When Peter comes back, let him come here as the deputy commander. This damn foreign devil brags about how powerful he is all day long. I want to see if he has real skills!"
It's a pity that Peter is not around now, otherwise he would be patting his chest and boasting again if he heard it.
Just as he was talking, the trumpet for dinner rang out. The soldiers lined up one after another and heard the leaders of each shed asking:
"Who gave you your food?"
The soldiers said in unison:
"Wang Hengyue!"
Then I heard Pangmu ask loudly: "Who pays you?"
"Wang Hengyue!"
"Whose life is yours?"
"Wang Hengyue!"
The soldiers answered loudly, leaving Wang Hengyue stunned.
This? This... Could it be that I am Yuan Shikai?
This was not over yet. When all the questions about the sheds were finished, the soldiers were heard shouting loudly:
"Rewards and punishments are clear, honor and disgrace are shared; do your best to serve, and live life and death together! If you advance, you will live together, if you retreat, you will die together; be loyal, righteous, and brave, and die without regrets!"
Then, Shi Shiran saw Yu Lei walking over with something like a ledger, and flipped through the ledger: "Ding Lifeng, the first stall in the second row!"
"Ding Lifeng is here!" A big man walked out.
Yu Lei rolled his eyes and glanced at him: "Ding Lifeng, you said yesterday that Beiyang issued more money than us. Is this true?"
"have!"
Yu Lei sneered: "Beiyang pays more money than us, but our salary comes from Mr. Wang Hengyue's own pocket. Every penny you get is given by Mr. Wang! What does Beiyang have to do with me?
Is there any comparison? Can Yuan Shikai use his own money to raise troops? Besides, looking at our Sichuan New Army, the soldiers all get 20,000 liang, and my first team gets 30,000 taels, and they are actually issued three months. You are ungrateful and want to repay your gratitude. Instead, you belittle yourself and go to the top.
, do you know your guilt?"
"Guilty! I just said it so casually."
"Just admit your guilt." Yu Lei turned to Li Yifeng: "Platoon Commander Li, what should we do according to the rules?"
Li Yifeng said: "Hit the Ten Army Sticks!"
At that moment, the leader dragged out Ding Lifeng, and in front of all the troops, the Tenth Army beat him with sticks.
After the beating, Ding Lifeng was limped back and Yu Lei said slowly again:
"Ding Lifeng, you said before morning exercises today that Mr. Wang angrily beats up foreigners, which is really bringing glory to us Sichuan people. Following Mr. Wang is the happiest thing. Do you mean this?"
"have."
Yu Lei smiled slightly: "Clear rewards and punishments are our military regulations. By order of the king's team officer, Ding Lifeng loyally goes to the peak and is rewarded with one month's salary!"
Ding Lifeng was stunned for a long time. He had just been beaten, and now he was suddenly rewarded. He suddenly stepped forward and said loudly: "Officer Wang has clear rewards and punishments. If you do the wrong thing, you will be beaten. If you do the right thing, you will be rewarded. Ding Lifeng will obey! Ding Lifeng will live his life."
I only listen to Commander Wang, and I am willing to die if Master Wang wants me to!"
These words hit Wang Hengyue's ears verbatim, and he suddenly turned around and asked Deng Xia: "I remember that I arranged documents for Yu Lei, right?"
Seeing Deng Xia smiling and nodding, Wang Hengyue was very surprised: "Have you ever seen any army with such a document?"
Deng Xia smiled and said:
"This is the military regulation that Brother Deguang discussed with us. We all agree with it and are willing to obey it. Because it was formulated by Brother Deguang, we have discussed it and Brother Deguang will come to implement it every day!"
