Song Dynasty Iron Armored Army

Chapter 73 Strengthening Training
Immediately, Chai Lin selected four relatively strong-looking recruits, and asked them to stand together with Wang Damao and said, "Loop around the school track twice, the distance is not close, pay attention to breathing evenly, and don't be impatient."

"Yes." The recruits replied.

"start."

The five of them went out with a whoosh, and Wang Damao really had special skills, so he saw his two legs alternately running forward in a whoosh.The runway of the school field is very small, one lap is 600 meters, and two laps are 1000 meters.At the beginning, the difference was not big, but it became obvious in the second lap. At the end, Wang Damao dumped the other four by 300 meters.

Chai Yong said: "He was No. 600 among 1 people selected by the township soldiers for cross-country running."

Chai Lin called Wang Damao over and asked, "How did you run so fast? Training since childhood?"

Wang Damao scratched his head and said, "My father, he likes to beat people. Whenever I disobeyed, he beat me with thorns. In order not to be beaten, I ran away. So I ran faster and faster."

"That's right, that's good. Don't train here from tomorrow on. Take your bedding, luggage and equipment, and report to the Chaijiazhuang Scout Camp. You will be specially trained." Chai Lin is going to train him to be a scout [-]. The messenger is Chai Meng's deputy. Although the Shenxing shoes are useful, they also have high demands on the body. Otherwise, how can they travel eight hundred miles at night?
Wang Damao stuttered and asked, "Where did the donkey still go?"

"Don't worry, Fa, as long as you behave well, not only will you be given a donkey, but there will be more rewards, such as a high salary and a big house, and your father will not beat you when the time comes," Chailin said.

Wang Damao smiled happily, and his father never beat him again, what a happy thing this is.

When Chai Lin came back, he naturally took care of the training of the township soldiers. He insisted on being on the front line of training from morning till night.Chai Lin personally demonstrated the queue, cross-country, push-ups, single and parallel bars, and gave tireless explanations to the recruits.

Chai Lin is amiable and patient in training. From the instructors to the recruits, everyone has a very good impression of Chai Lin.Of course, principled mistakes cannot be made. A recruit took a bite of a steamed bun and threw it away when he was eating. Chailin punished him by hitting him with ten sticks.

In the evening, Wu Song also came back from Cangzhou City in the army tent, and Chai Yong, Bian Xiang, and Pang Wanchun accompanied Chai Lin to conduct ward rounds.A total of sixty tents, ten people in each tent.There are five teams of soldiers on duty at night. They do not change guards in the first half of the night, and change shifts every hour in the second half of the night. The encounters between patrols are confirmed by passwords.The password is irregular and changes every day.

A group of five wandered around from tent to tent. The soldiers went to bed after a short night training. They were tired at night after a day of tossing around.Hearing soldiers coughing from time to time, Chai Lin said: "The tents are not good at keeping warm, and the night is too cold, especially since the coldest time has not yet come. We have to find a way."

Wu Song said: "This is not easy to handle. Charcoal heating is very good, but firstly, it is expensive, and secondly, it is easy to choke people and cause danger."

Bian Xiang said: "Like the hills of firewood piled up in land reclamation, we can change the wooden boards on which soldiers sleep into heated kangs. The heated kangs can be burned from inside the house and smoke comes out from the outside. As long as the fire prevention is properly handled, it can definitely keep you warm all winter, and the cost is very low."

Chai Lin nodded: "This method is good. Tomorrow, recruits who can repair kangs will be selected, and a big kang will be built in each tent, so that everyone will not suffer from the cold. Fire prevention is included in the scope of strict inspection of the camp, and the use of kangs requires strict fire prevention .”

"Okay brother." Everyone wrote it down.

In the rural areas near the sea in Cangzhou, a lot of heated kangs are used. The heated kangs are made of yellow mud, green bricks and stone slabs.Burn a fire in the kang pit, sleep on the kang, as long as you are willing to use wood, the effect is definitely much better than floor heating, it can be called earth heating.It's just that the task of fire prevention is heavy, so we need to be careful.

In the big tent, everyone chatted.

Chai Lin said with a smile: "Brothers, my trip is not in vain. There are a few great things."

Bian Xiang said: "I see that my brother's smile is so bright, so I know something good is going on. It must be a happy event. Tell me quickly, which girl has taken a fancy to you."

Chai Lindao: "While passing by Hu's Village, I met a fat monk pretending to be Lu Zhi, and I rescued a girl. This girl is called Hu Sanniang. It can be regarded as a marriage. I will propose marriage in a few days."

Everyone said: "Congratulations brother, brother is not young anymore, it's time to marry a wife."

Pang Wanchun next to him hesitated to speak, as if he had something to say, but he didn't say it.

Chai Lin said again: "Let me tell you a piece of news first, don't tell anyone, Lin Chong Lin is coming, there is also a water master named Ruan Xiaoqi, and a brother from my family, Chai Qiang, The day has come."

Everyone was very surprised. Ruan Xiaoqi was still an unknown person at this time, but Lin Chong was in the world. He burned the forage field, went to Liangshan on a snowy night, and the rivers and lakes were full of storms. Lin Chong's spear was superb.

Pang Wanchun said: "Instructor Lin is skilled in martial arts and invincible in marksmanship. That is nothing to say. But elder brother, Instructor Lin is a criminal wanted by the imperial court. Although everyone knows that he has been wronged, there is nothing he can do. Once Gao Qiu finds out, I am afraid he will be killed." Blame it down."

"Brother Wanchun reminded me that I will pay attention to this matter. After Coach Lin comes, he will temporarily change his surname to Bao, called Bao Chong. We are the only people who know the news, and no one will leak the news. No news will be leaked for a while. It will be several years before Gao Qiu finds out, when the time comes, we will be strong and strong, will we still be afraid of Gao Qiu?" Chailin said with a smile.

Wu Song said: "It's good enough if we don't bother that Gao Qiu, how dare that old thief come to Cangzhou to trouble us."

"Gao Qiu is a trivial matter. Our goal is to prevent the Kingdom of Jin. It will not take a few years for the Kingdom of Jin to invade the south. The imaginary enemy is the iron cavalry of the Kingdom of Jin. It depends on you how well the soldiers train. Please work hard." Chai Lin clasped his fists. road.

Bian Xiang clenched his fists: "Take care of his mother's golden soldiers and silver soldiers, you can do it, one for one, two for one pair. The mountain cutting ax my brother gave me hasn't been opened yet."

There are generals on duty at night, and Chai Jin has to go back to Chaijiazhuang to get busy.In the living room of Chaijiazhuang East Village, big butter candles were lit very brightly. More than a dozen carpenters gathered together. Hundreds of people are not enough.

Yu Hao has also come to work in Chaijiazhuang recently. Although his shop has not been requisitioned, he is worried. It is better to come to Chaijiazhuang to make some money and be safe. Chai Lin hired Yu Hao as the carpenter in charge, with an annual salary of 50 taels of silver and a bonus of another Calculate.According to Zhou Fu, the bonus in Chaijiazhuang is several times higher than the salary. For someone with real skills like Yu Hao, it's a trivial matter to make two or three hundred taels of silver a year.

Chai Lin cupped his hands and said, "Masters, it's a bit wrong to invite everyone here so late, but I have too many things to do during the day, so please forgive me."

　A new week has begun, and if there are votes, a book friend will help to vote for a few, and everyone is here to thank you.
