Of course, even if they are allowed to go out shopping, they can buy something before they are about to be assigned to various places, or those soldiers in Hebei, if they have families, they can still find a way to ask someone to bring a letter to report their safety.

And going out in a group of five also eliminates the possibility of going out to do bad things, or running away.

Hu Sanqi was the youngest, walking in the front, and the group went out of the new barracks of the small station, but they did not go to the legendary Binhai Port, but went to a nearby town.

The town is not big, and it is even similar to the various bazaars that Hu Sanqi saw when he was in his hometown, but it is very lively, because of the remoteness of the place, it is not a war-ready oil field in North China like the Dagang Oilfield, so it is still a little behind in construction.

After all, at present, under the strategy implemented by the elders, the first cities to be built are benchmark cities such as the imperial capital and Tianjin.

However, there are many new tricks in the small businesses on the streets, and the fact that the children running around do not have to mow the grass and feed the pigs also shows that life here is indeed more comfortable.

In front of a small stall on the side of the road, a group of small children are watching, and a man is shaking a handle at a round utensil like an iron pot, but the other hand is holding a bamboo stick.

I saw that the bamboo skewer was in the center of the iron pot, I don't know how, but there were constantly white things around, increasing rapidly, and finally those white filaments gradually became bigger and bigger, bigger than the largest winter melon Hu Sanqi had ever seen, but he handed it to a child with a smile.

Hu Sanqi is actually only fourteen years old, although in this era, there are already many people who have a son at the age of fourteen, and there are already many people who start working at the top of the door, but the heart is there, but he asks: "What is this?" ”

The man looked up and saw a few recruits appear, but he was not panicked, compared to the Ming Dynasty, the military households were either as miserable as serfs, or they robbed and killed if they wanted, these soldiers of the elders of the imperial capital were good, not only spoke well, but also acted generously, they were really benevolent and righteous.

In particular, there is a barracks nearby, although the soldiers in it can not easily come out to consume, but it can be said that the people in the vicinity have made a fortune, whether it is to send workers or purchase, they are all from money, and it has also indirectly brought prosperity here, not to mention the benefits brought by those elders in the rice fields of what small stations opened up on the saline-alkali flats.

"Master Jun, this is a marshmallow, freshly made, sweet."

The efficiency of this hand-cranked marshmallow machine is not low, and it is naturally produced by the elders, and a man who sells sugar in the streets and alleys is almost a child killer.

Hu Sanqi happily bought one, he and the other recruits opened their hands and feet, and began to eat a lot, although it is a small town, but it is very close to the canal and the sea, so there are a lot of good things to eat, of course, the elder's army is not precarious, maybe the next moment will hang up the army that takes his life for money, so it will not lead to the soldiers to spend directly after taking the military salary, all under the pretense of saving money as a wife.

There are big projects nearby, and even those workers come here from time to time to consume, so it also creates a temporary prosperity.

They used silver dollars as expenses, and their purchasing power was still very strong, and the purchasing power of a silver dollar was very strong, although it fluctuated, but several soldiers in the same class found a roasted fish restaurant, which was naturally inferior to the food in the barracks, but it was also fresh, and the most important thing was that they planned to take the opportunity to drink some wine.

After drinking the wine, he began to mutter: "You say, brother, where will we be divided when the time comes." ”

"How do I know this, there is a shortage of people everywhere now, but if you can be assigned to the imperial capital, even if it is for the elders to stand guard, then the treatment, I don't have to say."

"Come on, the elders are all volunteers, that is, elite soldiers who have been in the army for more than three years and are willing to continue to be soldiers, let's think about it, but, I listen to our instructors, they are only a year earlier than us, the best soldiers, in fact, went to Vietnam, they are really women!"

The red-faced man just drank a few sips of wine before he got up, and then his eyebrows fluttered and he talked about the yellow jokes he had heard.

"Entering the village, those who dare to resist the army, the men are killed, and the women are divided equally, but it is necessary to be the one who dares to play with their lives to pick first, and they are all beautiful women with white flowers, hey, if you can go to Vietnam, then you don't have to worry about anything."

"That place in Vietnam is too far away."

As a recruit, although the most basic map is not yet able to be recognized, it is the most basic training to find one's hometown, one's own location, and the situation of the surrounding countries on the map, and the elders hope that the more astute the people under them, the better.

However, knowing how far away from their hometown is, some people are worried, in the process of chatting with the instructor every day, they also know that the current imperial capital has activities in Shandong and other places, so the soldiers of Shandong dream of being sent back to their hometown in Shandong.

"Actually, it's good to go to Jiangnan, I heard that it is very rich there, but I don't know why, the elder just refuses to fight, if necessary, just the firearms in our hands, go directly to Shandong, there is no way to stop it!"

Some Shandong people are also thinking wildly.

Of course, they also commented that going to North Korea is also very nourishing, but the feeling of going to Liaodong is uncomfortable, so far in the old forest, there are still hundreds of bandits from the Eight Banners gathering hundreds of people to watch, but it is not easy to deal with.

Several men in their early twenties expressed their envy for the rumors that Vietnam could divide women, and the people on the front line in Vietnam have worked hard, but can you wait, wait for your brothers, and wait for us to pass before continuing to fight?

Hu Sanqi was noncommittal about this, at this time he did not dare to confide in anyone, the key problem is that as a landless peasant and bankrupt and bankrupt households, there is no good impression of the landlords, especially he regards those onlookers, the elders who have never even met so far as to be the enemies of the door.

In the veteran's statement, next week's report and performance, as well as the military parade, there will be elders, of course, the focus of the veteran's words is naturally to follow the arrival of the elders, and a big banquet will be arranged in the barracks, as for what kind of big banquet no one knows.

But Hu Sanqi also knew more and more about the situation in the imperial capital and the situation of these elders.

Legend has it that these elders are from overseas immortal mountains, and they are all powerful figures, seeing that the traitorous ministers and Taoists are not able to make a living a few years ago, and those Eight Banner soldiers from Liaodong are actually foreign heavenly demons, planning to kill all the people in the world and help them practice the Nine Turns Demon Skill, but fortunately, the elders took action to eliminate the demons, so they have their current peaceful life.

They seem to have magical powers, moving mountains and reclaiming seas, building great cities, and raising powerful armies.

They are jealous and hateful, and they will directly clean up anyone who breaks the law, no matter what their identity is.

As a small citizen, it is impossible to get rid of the anti-corruption officials and not the emperor, and I hope that there will be a Qingtian lord or a Mingjun micro-service private visit to save the world.

Hu Sanqi couldn't help but get nervous, he didn't expect to see the enemy in a few days, remembering his marksmanship, if he had the opportunity, could he shoot?

He could almost shoot a gun within three hundred meters, and if he really had a chance, would he kill that powerful elder?

Anyway, I have nothing, I exchange my life for a life, and I exchange my life for the life of a nobleman, isn't that earned?

The more I thought about it, the more extreme it became, and gradually became silent, after lunch, a few people drank some wine, the taste of this red star second pot head was really not bad, Hu Sanqi also drank a little glass, and didn't dare to go back directly, so he went around the town.

To kill or not to kill? How many kills?

Hu Sanqi's hatred for the elders is increasing, they have so much food, but they refuse to give it to the people of the Hu family, and they even rob his house with mud legs, which is really hateful.

According to the older generation, if the government wants to calm the place, the first thing is to appease them, these powerful grain households, even if the county magistrate arrives, the Hu family is the first wave to get posts, shush the cold and ask for warmth, but these elders don't ask about the indiscriminate, just to kill a few fart people, this kind of thing, in the world of the Ming Dynasty, isn't it a common thing.

Hu Sanqi was not convinced.

After lunch, the veterans didn't buy anything, but walked around contentedly, with money in their hands, although some people muttered to find women, but this is a small town, where there are brothels, all outsiders can't find a place to go, and this kind of behavior is not allowed.

Spending the time of these guys has always been the standard of the Elders' plans.

In the beginning, the elders who grew up in peacetime had the illusion that all armies in ancient and modern times, both Chinese and foreign, were the standard of their time.

Three major disciplines: obey the command in all actions, do not take a stitch from the masses, and all seizures must be returned to the public.

Eight points of attention: speak kindly, buy and sell fairly, repay borrowed things, compensate for damaged things, do not beat and curse people, do not damage crops, do not molest women, and do not abuse prisoners.

These military disciplines are only basic moral requirements for being a human being in the eyes of later generations, but if you think about it seriously, why are there regulations?

If someone crosses the road and runs a red light, it will be advertised not to run a red light.

If someone kills, there will be a provision for the death of the murderer.

The fact that the PLA has such a simple and clear but low-demand military discipline is itself an indication of the ferocity of that era.

At that time, this army was called "Bodhisattva Soldiers", "New Han People", and "The Division of Kings" by people during the Republic of China, why?

Because other armies of the same period did not treat civilians as human beings, and even these standards could not be met, and it was already friendly to beat people up after robbery, or to arrest strong men, and there were many people who directly slaughtered the village, and the township regiment drove back, saying that you colluded with the Japanese invaders, that is, colluding with the Japanese invaders, saying that you were leading to the eight roads, that is, through the eight roads, and all of them were killed.

The Red Army did not call itself a "soldier," but a "soldier," because it was a very offensive word in China.

In the thousands of years before the emergence of the communist army, the army was no different from robbers in the eyes of Chinese civilians and even middle and lower-level officials and landlords. "Capture the city, three days without sealing the sword" and "Dasuo three days" are the usual rewards for the fighting army, and the ruler's usual means of reducing military expenditures. As a male group, the army has always been more destructive than constructive, otherwise the Yue family army and the Qi family army, which have better military discipline, would not be widely praised.

As an army that has instilled good military discipline from the beginning, these people have not been contaminated with the tyranny of the army of this time and space, and the new army is completely disengaged from those Shun army Wu Sangui army, all of which are very clean at present.

It can be said that even in the world, under the rule of elders, as long as they are people in uniform, not to mention their ability, the first point is to ask for discipline!

24 hours a day, except for the tight personal washing time, if you move quickly, and have the opportunity to brag and fart with your companions, the rest of the time, either training, or learning to deal with the internal affairs of the barracks, learning all kinds of knowledge, improving the literacy rate, from the beginning, the elders have taken the literacy rate and military exploits together as an alternative condition for promotion.

Of course, there are thorns in it, and there are characters who feel they can practice.

However, in later generations, the ruffians who dropped out of high school to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble, were abducted and deceived all by the ruffians, and after a few years of tempering in the melting pot, they could become tall and energetic men, and the power of this model is not simple.

In essence, even if three months have passed, they have only changed from the original casual life in the countryside to pay attention to hygiene, live according to time, and know discipline, which is really not comparable with professional soldiers or elite soldiers.

Of course, it is impossible for the imperial capital to ask for its own rule, and children who do not grow up in the standardized schools of the elders can really become qualified soldiers when they grow up, of course, if they are the kind of people who are willing to learn, they are naturally willing to be promoted.

In peacetime, it is sentinel and training, and in wartime, it is marching, camping, and preparing for war, and the spirit is tense at all times, and the worries day and night are all high burdens on the body and spirit.

It's one thing for a veteran oiler to get used to life in the barracks, it's another thing for an ordinary soldier.

Of course, any kind of food will be tired after eating for a long time, and the most important thing is the spiritual world.

The so-called military cultural construction, the relationship between the army and the people, and the labor and the army, in the end, will all be attributed to one function: so that the soldiers who live a relatively alienated life in the barracks can feel a little emotional comfort of normal people. They need to be in contact with non-soldiers, they need a little bit of everyday affection, they sacrifice a lot, so they also need to feel that their sacrifice is worth it.

The point is, you have to make them realize that they are respected.

This kind of spiritual encouragement is generally still very sufficient in the Han and Tang Dynasties.
