PS. Present today's update, by the way, pull a vote for the "starting point" 515 fan festival, everyone has 8 votes, and the vote will also give the starting point coin, kneel and beg everyone to support and appreciate!

After dinner, it is a rare leisure time, the group of regiments in the camp of Huadi or in the camp in groups of three or five wandering around, or bringing hot water while soaking their feet while chatting, a group of soldiers are no exception, the one-month recruit training is about to end, the most talked about topic between the regiments and the soldiers is naturally the competition for positions and assessment of each battalion.

The group of regimental warriors did not have much extravagance for competing for positions, after all, they had long known that those talented soldiers were specially recruited by Yuan Qi to serve as the commanders of each battalion, and most of the soldiers were also very indifferent, because there were many positions in the Huadi battalion and few soldiers, so there was no need to worry at all, only those who wanted to compete for the position of battalion commander were competing in secret.

Feng Renxuan now likes to soak his feet in hot water, tired for a day, soak his feet in hot water, and feel comfortable, to say that the conditions of the Yuanqi regiment training camp are really good, not only the food is good, but also can provide sufficient hot water for Tuan Yong to bathe and soak his feet every day, and the whole camp is neat and clean, almost to the point of nitpicking, which makes all Tuan Yong love and hate this.

Lu Canwen, the deputy squad leader, came back with water, and saw that Feng Renxuan was the only one in the tent, so he asked: "Squad leader, in two days, the recruit training will be over, have you heard any news?" ”

Hearing this, Feng Renxuan smiled and said, "When are we not together all day long?" What can you hear? As he spoke, he said tentatively: "Want to compete for battalion commander? ”

The Huadi battalion is ten battalions of 5,000 people, and now the scholars are six squads, except for the squad leaders. Four battalion commander positions were also vacated. The most qualified to compete is naturally the deputy squad leader of each class. Lu Canwen didn't deny it, sat down and soaked his feet in hot water before saying, "The commander of a battalion commands five hundred people, who doesn't want to." ”

"I'd advise you to wait and see." Feng Renxuan groaned and said: "Look at the posture of the Yuanqi group, the assessment competition is not a show, and moreover, it is an assessment competition for several months. There's no need to rush it. ”

As soon as the words fell, Luo Chengzhi in the class walked in quickly and said, "The notice has been posted, the corresponding treatment and assessment competition content of the positions at all levels of the Yuanqi regiment, as well as the post election methods, have been disclosed. ”

Lu Canwen hurriedly said: "Don't worry about it, talk about it in detail." ”

Luo Chengzhi poured a cup of cold white water, drank two sips, and then said slowly: "All squads, platoons, companies and battalions are divided into principal and deputy positions, and when they are officially conferred positions, they will also be awarded military ranks, and the military ranks are divided into several categories: soldiers, non-commissioned officers, captains, school officers, and generals. There are several levels of various types, and the treatment of soldiers is two to four yuan per month. It is four to six dollars for lieutenants and six to ten dollars for captains. ”

Feng Renxuan said: "This is all copying the military system of Citigroup? ”

"It's not clear." Luo Chengzhi said: "We don't know how to speak, but it is estimated that it should be a Western military system." After a pause, he continued: "In the first round of job election, the recommendation system was adopted, and the ten battalion officers were recommended by all the soldiers in an anonymous manner, and the top ten people with the most votes were elected battalion officers, and the company commander candidates were selected by the battalion officers themselves. ”

"What kind of recommendation is this?" Lu Canwen said suspiciously: "If you have bad popularity, don't you have no chance at all?" ”

Feng Renxuan glanced at him and said in a flat tone: "This is the method of the first round of election, and in the next round, it will definitely change tricks." After a pause, he continued: "Don't worry, I guess everyone has a chance to come on stage and enjoy it, Yuan Qi is to use the amount of talent, and use our ability through competition and different ways of campaigning." ”

Lu Canwen didn't know what he was thinking, he didn't answer in a daze, and after a while, he said, "Let's go, go out and have a look." As he spoke, he dried his feet and put on his shoes, but he didn't leave, Feng Renxuan knew that he was waiting for him, so he wiped his feet quickly and walked out of the tent together.

The notices were posted at the gates of each battalion, there were a lot of onlookers, but there were almost no literate regimental braves, some scholars were reading and explaining aloud, Feng Renxuan and the two squeezed to the front and read the notices carefully, and then walked out of the camp gate.

At dusk, the Huadi camp was quite quiet, and the two walked all the way, and when they arrived at a more remote place, Lu Canwen looked around, and said very abruptly: "Brother Ji Rong doesn't realize that the Yuanqi group practice is a little weird?" ”

"Weird?" Feng Renxuan frowned and said, "Brother Guizhen can mean that the Yuanqi regiment is well-trained, has a strict hierarchy, and has a rigorous system, and is far superior to the Eight Banners Green Camp in all aspects?" ”

Lu Canwen nodded and said, "More than that, judging from this month's recruit training, the combat power of Yuanqi's regimental training is definitely not comparable to that of the Eight Banners Green Battalion." ”

Feng Renxuan said with a smile: "What does Brother Guizhen want to say?" ”

After hesitating, Lu Canwen said in a low voice: "I'm worried that Yuan Qi has bad intentions. ”

"If Yuan Qi has bad intentions, why should he recruit a scholar to lead the group training?"

"Do you know if this move is not a cover-up?"

Feng Renxuan smiled and said: "There is nothing in the world, mediocre people disturb themselves, Brother Guizhen is too worried, if Yuan Qizhen has a bad heart, how can he donate a huge amount of money to help Humen strengthen its defense?" How could they have paid to help the Green Battalion form a volunteer battalion? And donated 3,000 Western muskets? Moreover, Yuanqi was originally only willing to form 2,000 group training, but Deng and Lin formed 10,000 Yuanqi. ”

Lu Canwen interrupted him and said, "Looking at the situation of Yuanqi's group training, it is basically planned to maintain it for a long time, how can you say this?" ”

This question is Feng Renxuan's question, the regimental training is generally formed during the war, and it is withdrawn after the war, which can be described as coming and going after the war, which is also one of the fundamental reasons why the imperial court allows and encourages the formation of regimental training, Yuanqi regimental training is more formal than the imperial court's economic division of the Eight Banners Green Battalion, once the war is over, Yuanqi regimental training will be willingly abolished?

After a long silence, he spoke: "Will the battle with England be a protracted war?" ”

Lu Canwen shook his head slightly, and said slowly: "Who can judge this matter now?" ”

"It's hard to say." Feng Renxuan said: "As early as two years ago, Yuan Qi donated to strengthen the defense of Humen and prepare for the construction of volunteers, now it seems. ”

Before he finished speaking, Luo Chengzhi trotted over, still a dozen steps away. He said, "Quick." The shopkeeper of Yida is here. Gather all the soldiers to the meeting of the Great Tent of the Chinese Army. ”

Hearing this, Feng Renxuan glanced at Lu Canwen and said, "This is an opportunity, since Brother Guizhen has doubts, you might as well ask in public." ”

Lu Canwen said with a smile: "This issue is a bit sensitive. ”

Feng Renxuan said: "If you don't ask this question, how can you stay in Yuanqi to practice in the Yuanqi group with peace of mind?" ”

The three of them trotted all the way to the big tent of the Chinese army, and the soldiers of each squad they saw had already lined up and stood up, and they were three of them in their class. Immediately hurriedly entered the ranks, and as soon as he stood up, Yi Zhicontent, who was dressed in a number robe, strode in from the outside and stood still in front of the handsome case.

After glancing at everyone, Yi Zhizhi said, "Everyone-." ”

Everyone hurriedly stood up and let out a neat kowtow, "Take a break." Yi Zhixiang paused for a moment before he said aloud: "First of all, congratulations to all of you, you are about to successfully complete the recruit training!" The big waves wash the sand, and those who are left behind are elites. Only you are qualified to lead the Yuanqi group training. ”

Listen to this. All the scholars are a little feverish in their hearts, this month's intensive training is simply a nightmare for them who are not diligent in their four bodies, and it is really not easy to survive.

"The training of the first month of recruit training is coming to an end, and you will soon be in command of a battalion or a company." Yi Zhishu paused for a moment when he said this, and then raised his voice and said, "I want to ask you, are you nervous?" ”

"Report!" A loud voice.

Yi Zhishu said in a deep voice: "Say." ”

"If you enter the Yuanqi group training, you will come to lead the army, and the commander is imminent, why are you worried?"

"As a battalion commander and company commander, the life, death, honor and disgrace of a battalion and a company are all in your thoughts, and you don't have the slightest apprehension?"

The big tent was quiet, Yi Zhishu swept everyone's eyes back and forth, and said in a slow voice: "The higher the position, the heavier the responsibility, the commander of the army is not a fuss, any mistake will make the regimental brave under your command pay blood and even life, please come to lead the Yuanqi regimental bravery, not let you be powerful, not let you see the life of the regimental courage as a mustard, but I hope that you can bring out a brave and good fight, strict discipline, with benevolence and loyalty, in order to resist foreign aggression and protect the territory and the people." ”

Only then did a group of scholars understand that Yi Zhi's purpose of calling them today was to set tasks and goals for them to unify the army and train the troops, and they couldn't help but play a little drum in their hearts, disciplined, no need to worry, and it seems that there is no big problem with being brave and good at fighting, but with a loyal and loyal division of benevolence and loyalty, this is not a small difficulty, and all the regiments are illiterate in big characters, and they are all coming for Yuanqi's generous treatment.

Just when everyone was pondering, Lu Canwen said loudly: "Report." ”

Do you still have an opinion on this? Yi Zhizu was a little surprised, glanced at him, and said, "Say." ”

"Mark the bold." Lu Canwen said loudly: "Dare to ask the big shopkeeper, once the war is over, will the Yuanqi group training be abolished?" ”

This guy is not small, and he dares to ask such a sensitive question in public, Yi Zhixiang glanced at him, glanced at everyone again, and asked, "Do you want the Yuanqi group to be abolished?" Still don't want to? ”

Hearing him ask like this, all the scholars didn't know how to answer, they were silent one by one, and it was easy to know that the time for these scholars to join the Yuanqi group training was too short, and they had no sense of belonging to Yuanqi, and they didn't have feelings for the Yuanqi group training, and they were all still recruits, so they really let them command the troops, but I was afraid that the idea would be different.

Seeing that no one was silent, he slowly spoke: "I just said, I hope you will train the Yuanqi Group into a loyal teacher with benevolence and loyalty, what is a loyal teacher?" I don't need to explain this, do I? After a pause, he continued: "The day is peaceful, Yuanqi's group practice will naturally be abolished, and if you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are, how much does Yuanqi have to spend a year on this 10,000 group practice?" Did you know? ”

As he spoke, he raised his hand, stretched out a finger, and said, "At least one million yuan!" Yuanqi is rich, but he can't stand such a toss every year, do you have more money when Yuanqi has more money? ”

After a slight pause, he changed his words and said: "However, you can rest assured, the group training that Yuan Qi has trained at such a large cost will not be cut in a short time, and you have the opportunity to be rewarded for meritorious service.

This large-scale invasion by England is not only a collision between the two great empires in the world today, but also a struggle for hegemony between the East and the West.

You may not know that the greatest threat to the Qing Dynasty is not England, but the Russian Empire in the northwest! Once the Yuanqi Regiment practices and makes meritorious contributions, you will be important to the imperial court, soar to the top, go straight up, enter the phase, paint the Lingyan Pavilion, and the scholar Wanhu Hou, it is not a dream! ”

A group of scholars are already fame and fortune, portraits of Lingyan Pavilion, scholars and ten thousand households, it is the dream of all scholars, all the scholars were teased when the blood boiled, and their faces were swollen red, but because of military regulations, no one dared to talk to each other.

The mood of the people who were waiting was almost calm, and Yi Zhizhi continued: "The notice has been posted, the position election, and the assessment competition have been said very clearly, I won't go into details, I will remind you that the Yuanqi regiment practices the Huadi camp and the Henan camp, and the assessment competition, the first two months will compete in their respective camps, and the next three months, the two camps will be combined to assess and compete together."

In view of the fact that there are too few scholars who join the Yuanqi group training, and the Henan camp is all led by the students of Yuanqiyixue, if you are compared to the students of Yuanqiyixue, you will not only lose your position, but also lose the face of Yuehua Academy and Xuehaitang! Well, I would like to give you a final word, sweat more in training, and less blood on the battlefield! Disband! ”

When the group of scholars left, Yan Yangtian served tea diligently and said cautiously: "Principal, the students don't understand. ”

Yi Zhisuff took a few sips of tea before saying, "Say." ”

"The students don't understand why the principal wants to recruit these scholars to lead the Yuanqi group training." Yan Yangtian said cautiously: "The students of Yixue lead the group training, and the principal can collect the effect of being like an arm, these scholars are all pretentious, and the students are worried that they will not succeed enough and will have more than enough failures." ”

Yi Zhizu looked at him with a teacup and said, "What's the matter, you don't have confidence in the assessment competition?" Afraid of not being able to compete with them? ”

"It's really a little weak-hearted." Yan Yangtian said: "Since these scholars have only entered the camp, everyone has begun to study the military book seriously, if nothing else, for fear of embarrassing the principal." ”

"That's a good thing." Yi Zhizhi said: "Only when there is competition can there be motivation, progress, and development, and there must be a force in the barracks to catch up with me, and tell them that I will not have the slightest partiality in the assessment competition." ”

"Don't worry, we won't disgrace the principal." Yan Yangtian said in a loud voice, paused, and he continued: "Can the principal borrow more books on the art of war?" ”

Yi Zhizhi nodded and said: "I'll try, see if I can find you some books on Western military textbooks, however, in terms of war wisdom and command, the West is not as good as our China, you should try to learn from others' strengths, form your own style, and avoid rigid copying." ”

"Students understand." Yan Yangtian replied loudly.
