Chapter 47: Changes
For half a month, Li Jing asked the recruits of Zuo Yidu to run in the morning with full armed weights every day, and gradually increased the weight. In the morning, the standing posture is carried out. In the afternoon, the queue drill will be carried out.
Over and over again, back and forth, these three trainings are done every day. And the drill is extremely strict, even the more you go to the back, the more severe it becomes. If you can't finish the task in the morning, breakfast will be halved, you can't stand in a military posture, your lunch will be halved, you will run circles around the school field, squatting and jumping, and push-ups. In the afternoon, the queue drill, not only the ordinary soldiers have to practice, but those captains and gang commanders also have to act as the vanguard, the drill is not good, the dinner is still halved, and the extra love to the punishment drill.
For half a month, there are very few people who can eat a complete meal every day, and most recruits can only eat half a meal per meal. However, Li Jing did not abuse these recruits, in order to ensure that the recruits' bodies adapt to this kind of intense training, he specially applied for Zuo Yidu to change from two meals to three meals a day. In addition, each meal is specially equipped with some seasonal vegetables such as pork and mutton. Although most of the soldiers can only eat half a meal, they actually consume more nutrients than before.
Moreover, Li Jing also specially stipulated that from the head of the general to the head of the team to the captain, the captain, and the soldiers, the fifth-class meal was implemented. In addition to this duty package, there is also an assessment every seven days, and the assessment results are divided into 10 grades, and the results of the fundamental performance appraisal are classified as 5th class packages, and the soldiers enjoy different packages according to their results. In addition, during the daily training, the soldiers will be upgraded or downgraded according to their performance on the day. If the training performance is outstanding, then his standard will be improved, and if the performance is not good, his original standard will be reduced.
In short, the dining standard of Zuo Yidu is very high, and the best set meal standard is four dishes and one soup, two meat and two vegetables, enough rice steamed cakes, and the meal is not repeated, this meal of chicken and duck, the next meal of pig and sheep, and the next meal of fish. But if the performance is not good and the training task cannot be completed, it can only be pickled vegetable strips with sorghum vegetable porridge. Although the sorghum vegetable porridge is full, it doesn't matter how much you eat, no matter how much vegetable porridge you eat, you can't withstand much hunger. What's more, others eat chicken, duck and fish, but you can only eat pickles and drink vegetable porridge, this contrast is not something that few people are willing to accept.
In the first few days, the hardest training was standing in a military posture, and standing in a military posture every morning was a disaster. Many soldiers would rather run laps, squat, jump, and push-ups than stand in a military position. However, with the introduction of the reward and punishment system in the capital, as well as the kind of competition where everyone competes for the first, the military posture of the recruits has begun to get better and better. On the contrary, the most difficult part of the training became the queue drill.
Turn left and right turn back, stand up and take a break, keep up with the right, and run in unison!
This new set of queue drills, the two teams of recruits on the left are very novel and fun at the beginning. But after the real training, Li Jing felt that he was going to die. This group of young recruits going up to the mountains to hunt and farm can be a good trick, but it is sometimes more difficult for them to distinguish between left and right than for them to carry a cow on their backs.
Li Jing shouted in front of him to turn right, and as a result, the originally neatly arranged line immediately messed up. Some to the right, some to the left, and some to the right, and some collided with each other, and the team was like a market.
Later, Li Jing and Wang Chong thought of a way to let this group of recruits wear different shoes on their two feet, one white and one black, white left and black right, so that these people are familiar with each other. Back to the conditioned reflex, as soon as you shout left, immediately stretch out your left foot wearing a white shoe.
It took almost ten full days for the queue drill to get on track. However, in the next few days, Li Jing still ran in the morning, military posture in the morning, and queue drill in the afternoon. It's just that Li Jing didn't even spare the time at night, stipulating that every day after dinner, all the soldiers should learn to read and write, and stipulating that everyone had to learn two words every night. As soon as this request came out, even Wang Chong felt a little incomprehensible. They are just united soldiers, and learning what military posture and queue can be said to be to polish the ambition of the recruits' eggs, and cultivate the team spirit and tenacious style that Li Jing said. But with a group of united soldiers, there is no need to learn to read and write.
Li Jing's explanation for this is that many soldiers are bored and troublesome after a day of training during the day. often contracted to drink and play money, and even easy to fight and cause trouble. It is better to gather together to learn to read, and on the one hand, let the soldiers know Braille, and save them from causing trouble when they are idle. Second, we can take advantage of the opportunity of literacy to strengthen discipline teaching, and we can also sum up our training experience every day and learn some knowledge about fighting wars.
Wang Chong didn't pay much attention to other explanations, but he agreed with Li Jing's statement that this could squeeze the time of those recruits, so that they would not have time to make trouble, so he didn't care about it anymore.
After half a month of training like this, Li Jing held a parade drill and specially invited the ten generals of the battalion and Duyu Marquis Song Wen and others. Originally, Li Jing felt that although Cui Yunqing and Feng Yanqing were titled regimental training envoys and deputy regimental training envoys, after all, they were part-time and their main responsibilities were to manage state affairs. So Li Jing just asked people to send a letter to the two officials, but he didn't expect that Cui Yunqing and Feng Yanqing actually arrived together that day, and even Beijia, Zhaowang Li Xiao, and Sima Yuxuan, who have always been low-key and rarely show up, were not invited. In addition to them, many local officials in the state and Penglai County were also uninvited.
And this little drill, for some reason, even Dongmu guarded and captured, Dengzhou Town Soldiers, Longshan Battalion, Penglai Water Division, Da Xie Yan and other armies that were not subordinate to each other also had generals to lead the team to watch.
All of a sudden, the Jiulidian Solidarity Camp was gathered from all directions, and the wind and clouds were surging.
Li Jing was a little flattered, and he didn't know how a small queue of people had alarmed so many big people.
At the gate of the camp, Li Jing, who was fully armed today, respectfully greeted this group of uninvited civil and military generals one by one, nodding his head and bowing his waist, and greeting him with a smile, making his waist almost sore, and his face was numb with laughter.
I was about to take some time to escape from here, but I saw several ox carts coming and a few people coming down from above. Li Jing glanced at it, but saw that two of them were acquaintances, namely Li Wei and Sima Yuxuan, and there were several young people in robes and shirts.
When Li Jing greeted his teacher Cui Yunqing just now, he had already heard him say that Li Wei and others were coming, but he didn't expect them to really come.
"The student greets the teacher and has seen King Zhao."
Yu Xuan looked at Li Jing's military uniform, heroic and extraordinary, and said with a smile: "You are a scholar when you wear a military robe, but you are wearing a military uniform today, but you have the demeanor of a general." Yes, yes, I also heard in the city that you have made a new way of training, in just half a month, you have actually reborn the training of Zuo Yidu, for the teacher I listened to the heart, I have long wanted to come and see it. Uninvited, you won't blame, will you? β
"Where, where. The student was just afraid of disturbing the teacher, so he didn't invite him. If the teacher is interested in this, the student should have gone to pick up the teacher himself. β
Yu Xuan smiled, "When I came, I happened to meet King Zhao, so I came together, and I will introduce you to you, these two are the same generation as you, they have to call you a senior brother, come." β
Li Jing looked at Yu Xuan's hand, but suddenly found that the two young people Yu Xuan wanted to introduce were actually the two women dressed as men he met in the flax cake shop last time. Today, they are still dressed as they were that day, but they wear jade around their waists, and they are dressed more luxuriously.
"It turned out to be two sons-in-law, who said goodbye in a hurry that day, and they were offended, so please Haihan." Li Jing had almost guessed the identities of the two, and when he saw the two of them looking at him with a smile on their faces, he hurriedly spoke up first.
"It turns out that you have already seen it, but I really don't know about it." Yu Xuan said with a smile.
"It was purely a chance encounter, and I didn't know the identities of the two before, but it was a little offensive."
Yu Xuan chuckled when he heard this: "It was fate to meet by chance, let me introduce you to the teacher, this is the beloved daughter of King Zhao, the lord of Xihe." In addition, this one is the young daughter of the teacher, and she is also your junior sister. β
Li Jing bowed to the two girls who pretended to be men and said, "The lord of Xihe County is good, and so is Senior Sister Yu." β
On the way into the camp, Yu Xuan carefully looked at the barracks of Zuo Yidu, and turned his head to search for the recruits who were all wearing brand-new armor and uniforms today, and were very powerful.
"Yes, it's really good, although the teacher hasn't seen the results of the exercise, but just by the momentum on their bodies, they know that the Dao will be bad today. In this way, the teacher is also much more relieved, and he can leave with peace of mind. β
Li Jing was stunned when he heard this, "Is the teacher leaving Dengzhou?" β
Yu Xuan nodded, and his tone was full of emotion: "Yes, just three days ago, the imperial court has sent her brother Cong back to the imperial court and worshiped Tongping Zhangshi, my brother Gui has also been promoted to the Shannan Dongdao Jiedu Envoy, the fourth brother Qiu has been promoted to the Fujian Observation Envoy, and I have just been appointed by the imperial court as the Fengzhou Defense Envoy, and I will leave for my post on the same day." β
"Congratulations to the teacher for finally rehabilitating Zhaoxue and making a comeback." Li Jing stepped forward with a smile to congratulate. Yu Cong is a colt and Yu Xuan's younger brother. Previously, the Yu family was demoted because Yu Cong offended the former prime minister Wei Baoheng. Now that Wei Baoheng has been given to death, everyone expected the resurgence of the Yu family, but what they did not expect was that Yu Cong not only re-used it this time, but also directly added Tongping Zhang. Tongping Zhangshi, adding this official title means paying homage to the prime minister and going straight to the center.
And the other three brothers of the Yu family, one is a festival envoy, one is an observer, and one is a defense envoy, all of whom are frontier officials.
At this time, Li Jing also gradually understood why a small drill would attract so many civil officials and military generals, it turned out that they all knew that Li Jing's teacher Yu Xuan had made a comeback, and Yu Cong also worshipped the prime minister. They flocked here, not really to see what they could do, it was estimated that they got the news that Yu Xuan would come today, and they came to see Yu Xuan in the name of watching the exercises, and wanted to have something to do with him.
Thinking of this, Li Jing's heart was very complicated. He was naturally happy that his teacher was promoted, but as soon as Yu Xuan was promoted, he was promoted to Guanlong, which made him feel a little regretful. As soon as Yu Xuan walked so far, it is still two to say whether he can maintain this teacher-student relationship in the future. Even if Yu Xuan still recognizes him as a protΓ©gΓ©, I'm afraid that he is far away from the mountains and can't take care of him.
The prime minister of the court is the younger brother of his brother, which is a happy thing, but the teacher has to go thousands of miles away to take office, and it makes people feel a little unhappy after all.
