Now these soldiers are not wearing armor, but wearing thick red mandarin duck battle jackets.

These recruits stood in the snow, and the hot air they exhaled quickly condensed into water mist.

Some soldiers' faces were cracked by the cold north wind, and some had chilblains on their hands.

Despite the tough conditions, they did not opt ​​out for these reasons.

Their faces were full of excitement, and they kept shooting at the target a hundred paces away.

Originally, Zhao Wen didn't want to send 56 and a half to these soldiers so early.

After all, this was Zhao Wen's biggest secret, but after a month's assessment, Zhao Wen found that these soldiers were basically honest peasants with no other intentions.

Coupled with the fact that Zhao Wen's deeds have spread madly throughout Xuanfu Town, these people have already worshiped Zhao Wen as a patron saint.

In addition, Song Hu and others publicized Zhao Wen's deeds in the ears of these soldiers almost every day, and at the same time revealed Zhao Wen's origin inadvertently.

All these things made these soldiers extremely loyal to Zhao Wen.

If someone asked them, why are you so loyal to Zhao Wen?Then they will definitely say, nonsense, if you are not loyal to the gods, are you not afraid of thunder?

In the Longmenbao Army, the first military order is to strictly keep the secrets of firearms.

If someone leaks it, the consequences are not something ordinary people can bear.

Looking at these meticulously trained soldiers, Zhao Wen praised in his heart: "A strong soldier will succeed, a strong soldier will succeed."

Although these soldiers can't be compared with those of later generations, in this era, if not top-notch, they are almost the same.Now, what they lack is the baptism of iron and blood.

"Daniu, where is the guard camp? I'll go and have a look." Zhao Wen shouted loudly without turning his head.

Daniu, who had just finished talking to Song Hu and others, hurriedly answered, "Outside the castle!"

"I'm going to see the guard camp, take me there." Zhao Wen said in a deep voice.

Zhao Daniu said to Song Hu and the others: "Do you understand what your lord means?"

Song Hu rubbed his hands, his eyes gleamed brightly: "Hey, this time we must give Jianu a big blow."

"Yes, yes, this time, let them have a good taste of our strength, and avenge the brothers who died in the Sarhu battle." Liu Wu also yelled loudly, with a fierce gleam in his eyes.

Zhao Daniu said: "Okay, you go to train the soldiers first, the adults call me."

Zhao Daniu waved to the crowd, and then took Zhao Wen out of the school grounds.

The personal guard camp is where Zhao Wen's wealth and life are, and the training cannot be sloppy.

Although the school ground is big enough to accommodate two to three thousand people training at the same time, Zhao Daniu doesn't like to train in the school ground.

It would be appropriate for other soldiers to practice marksmanship in the school grounds, but this guard battalion is not.

The Personal Guard Battalion is equivalent to Zhao Wen's personal bodyguards. They don't need to go into battle to kill the enemy, but only need to protect Zhao Wen's safety.

Therefore, these people not only have to have outstanding marksmanship, although they don't need to be as accurate as other general banner soldiers' marksmanship.It also requires a strong physique, as well as a variety of fighting techniques and the skilled use of various ordnance.

Zhao Daniu is also a veteran who has been in the army for a long time, he understands this.

Therefore, from the beginning, Zhao Daniu put these soldiers outside the fort to train in the field.

In Zhao Daniu's view, only soldiers trained in this way can protect Zhao Wen's safety.

Zhao Wen followed Zhao Daniu to a place about a mile outside the fort.

Looking into the eyes, I saw two groups of people naked to the upper body, holding wooden sticks in their hands and fighting together.

Zhao Wen looked at the fighting crowd, frowned, pointed ahead, and asked, "What are you doing?"

Zhao Daniu turned around, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, this is the way those generals in the Nine Sides train their servants."

"The way to train servants? This training is good training, why do you still have to fight?"

Zhao Wen was just an ordinary college student in later generations. Although he had watched several military-related movies, he knew nothing about military training strategies, especially ancient military training strategies.

In addition, the war environment of this era is very different from that of later generations.That's why Zhao Wen didn't choose to train the soldiers by himself.

Instead, the power of military training was delegated to people like Zhao Daniu.

In later generations, once there is a war, it will be full of artillery fire.If a soldier does not have a strong psychological endurance, he will be frightened mad by the continuous artillery fire.

Once the soldiers can't bear it, it is very likely that they will be defeated before the enemy has attacked.Therefore, the army of later generations has very high discipline requirements for soldiers.

And this era is in the era of alternating cold weapons and hot weapons.Cold weapons have not been completely eliminated, and hot weapons have not been widely used.

Although the war environment may be somewhat different from before, it is basically the same.Therefore, this era has very high requirements for soldiers' blood and bravery.

But that is not to say that there are no requirements for the discipline of soldiers.

In fact, in Daming, the discipline requirements for soldiers were also quite high.

"Ming Hui Dian" once said that when two armies confront each other, if someone in the army flees, they will be cut from left to right.The front row flees, and the back row cuts them off.

Xiaoqi fled and killed the Xiaoqi officer.The general flag fled.Kill the chief banner officer.

And so on, until the total soldiers.

Zhao Daniu's training method is actually recorded in Qi Jiguang's "Ji Xiao New Book".

Zhao Wen looked at the blushing and thick-necked people who were fighting, and asked worriedly: "Training like this? Are you really all right?"

Zhao Daniu said indifferently: "What can happen? They are the last barrier to protect the adults. If this suffering is unbearable, then it is better to go home and farm."

Chapter 62

Standing on a relatively high mound of dirt, Zhao Wen looked at the fighting soldiers with red faces and thick necks, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

Zhao Daniu walked to the front of the crowd and shouted at them: "Now, everyone, stop for me. My lord has something to say."

Hearing Zhao Daniu's words, those soldiers who were fighting hurriedly dropped their sticks and stood together.

"My lord, do you have anything to say to them?" Zhao Daniu cupped his hands at Zhao Wen.

Zhao Wen nodded, jumped off the mound, and walked in front of them.

"Is the training hard?" Zhao Wen cleared his throat and asked loudly.

"It's not bitter. There are white flour steamed buns and pork to eat every day. It's not bitter at all."

The food in these guard camps is the best in the entire Longmen Fort. White flour steamed buns are standard, and they can eat a meal of pork every three or four days.

For these soldiers who have just thrown away their hoes and sickles, this kind of food is like heaven.

Where did the peasants eat such good food?Even the local rich man in the village does not have such a good meal.

It is also fortunate that the number of people in the personal guard camp is small, otherwise, Zhao Wen really wouldn't be able to support them.After a month, the money spent on food alone is no less than a hundred taels.Fortunately, there is still a lot of money that Fan Zheng used to support Zhao Wen before, otherwise, he would have to drink the northwest wind.

Zhao Wen looked at these soldiers with bruised noses and swollen faces, and shouted loudly: "You are the best soldiers in the entire Ming Dynasty, and the most outstanding soldiers under my Zhao Wen. You carry a heavy burden on your shoulders."

Zhao Wen stopped suddenly, his eyes swept over the faces of these soldiers.

From their faces, Zhao Wen saw blood and loyalty.

"I hope that you can fight the enemy bravely like the champion. I hope that in the future, you will gallop on the battlefield and be the master of tigers and wolves that will make the enemy fearful."

Looking at them, Zhao Wen felt a hot current rushing from his heart to his forehead.

These soldiers were not as slack, worried, depressed, and listless as the frontier soldiers in other military towns. Each of these soldiers was filled with anger.

When this anger bursts out of the chest, it is the time when the world changes color.

Zhao Wen saw Zhou Laoliu, Zhou Laoqi and Zhou Laoba in the crowd.

They all knelt down on one knee at the top of their voices, clasped their fists with both hands, raised their heads above their heads, and shouted at Zhao Wen: "Follow the general to the death, follow the general to the death, follow the general to the death."

Their voices echoed on the plain, and they could not disperse for a long time.

Hearing their shouts, Zhao Wen nodded in satisfaction.

"I already know your loyalty, so get up first." Zhao Wen waved his hands and said, "I hope you will always remember your promise, so you can continue training."

As soon as Zhao Wen finished speaking, he turned and left.

Zhao Daniu looked at these soldiers and shouted: "Your Excellency is very satisfied with you today, you all train me well, don't embarrass me."

Zhao Daniu greeted them and hurriedly followed behind Zhao Wen.

The thousand-ply bottom officer's boots creaked as they stepped on the snow.

Zhao Wen looked at the cement kiln and brick kiln that kept emitting black smoke outside Longmen Fort, and whispered to Zhao Daniu: "Go and tell Wang Liuqi, let him work harder these few days, and try to build it after the beginning of spring." The cement and bricks and tiles from the cement factory are fired."

Now there are only three or four cement kilns in Longmenbao, and the output is limited.

When the Longmen Fort was being repaired before, all the cement stock had been used up.

Now in the warehouse of Longmen Fort, there is not even a bag of cement.

So, just after the Chinese New Year, Zhao Wen couldn't wait to find Wang Liuqi and ask him to supervise the firing of cement and bricks.

Wang Liuqi is now a manager of a cement kiln and a brick kiln, and now his whole person is like a second spring, with a cheerful look every day, which is completely different from before.But recently he encountered a sad thing.

Just as Zhao Daniu was about to look for Wang Liuqi, Wang Liuqi got the news before he could take a few steps, and ran out wearing a dirty cotton coat.

Looking at him like this, Zhao Wen couldn't help asking: "Why are you dressed like this? You are in charge now, and you get seven taels of silver every month. Why don't you buy some more clothes?"

Wang Liuqi hastily kowtowed respectfully.

"My lord, it's not that the villain doesn't want to buy more, but that I really can't buy more." Wang Liuqi's face was full of sorrow, and his eyes were full of bloodshot eyes.

When Zhao Daniu heard this, he thought that Wang Liuqi thought the salary was too low, so he became angry at that time.

Zhao Daniu glared at the boss, then at Wang Liuqi, and said viciously: "You old man, don't you think that the salary that the lord gives you is too little?"

Wang Liuqi's complexion changed, and he said hastily: "How can a villain dislike the low wages that adults give? It's just that something happened at home."

"You stand up first." Zhao Wen looked at Wang Liuqi, who looked sad and exhausted, and said unbearably.

"Thank you sir."

Wang Liuqi hurriedly thanked him, then stood up staggeringly from the ground.

"What happened? Can you still worry like this?" Zhao Wen looked at Wang Liuqi curiously.

But Wang Liuqi hesitated, as if he didn't want to say anything.

Seeing Wang Liuqi's appearance, Li Xiaosan immediately became anxious, "You old man, if you tell me what to say, just say it. Could it be that adults can still eat you?"

"Don't dare." Wang Liuqi hastily confessed his guilt, and spoke in a low voice.

"The villain lives in a small village called Wangjiazhuang five miles south of Longmen Fort. There are two sons in the family, including my wife. There are four people in total. My wife has a younger brother who lives fifty miles west of Longmen Fort. Although there were Tartars raging before, they were beaten out by the adults within a short time. Therefore, the people in Xuanfu Town all returned to their places of residence."

Wang Liuqi's face was full of sadness. He sighed and continued, "I escaped the ravages of the Tartars, but I did not escape the looting of the bandits. There are three hundred people in the village where my wife and brother live." , One night, most of them were killed by the bandits. The whole village was ordered by the bandits. If my brother-in-law happened to be away from the village before, I guess my brother-in-law would die too."

"Bandits?" Zhao Daniu's face changed, and he looked at Wang Liuqi.

"It's the bandits. My brother-in-law fled to my house the day before yesterday and said it was a bandit called Black Whirlwind."

Zhao Wen squeezed his chin and sighed, "You go to work first, I know about it."

Zhao Wen waved at Wang Liuqi, then took Zhao Daniu and Li Xiaosan back to the defense mansion.

As soon as he stepped through the gate, Zhao Wen said to Li Xiaosan: "Go and find Song Hu, Wang Qi and Liu Wu. I have something to ask him."

Li Xiaosan cupped his hands and ran out quickly.

"Your Excellency, do you want to exterminate this group of bandits?"

Zhao Wen said: "How can a wave of bandits satisfy my appetite? My goal is to draw a circle with a distance of [-] miles from Longmen Fort, and I will not let any of the bandits inside go away."

Zhao Wen's eyes lit up and he called out loudly.

In fact, exterminating these bandits now can not only protect the environment and the people, but also play a role in training soldiers.

In addition, these bandits robbed the people all the year round and accumulated a lot of money.

Kill all these bandits, wouldn't all the money in the bandits' den belong to him?

Although the bandits spend money lavishly, they can't save much money.But for Zhao Wen, who is almost poor and crazy now, mosquito legs are also meat.

Zhao Wen sat on the main seat and said in a low voice: "It's time for these recruits to experience the flames of war."

A quarter of an hour later, Song Hu, Wang Qi and Liu Wu stood in the hall wearing brand new armor.

The armors on their bodies are all newly made, each of them is shiny, reflecting the cold light, and the red cherry on the helmet is slowly fluttering behind their heads, which looks quite imposing.
