Everyone looked at each other and were all excited!
From now on, when bragging to others, you can say something like: Do you know who my general is? He is the emperor of our Great Qin!
Seeing everyone's excited expressions, I pointed to the swords that were put aside in an orderly manner and said loudly: "You will no longer need these things in the future. I will give you new weapons and train you in a new way!"
Everyone looked at each other, a little confused. What is the use of swords in fighting?
The courageous Lord Two Five Hundred said respectfully: "Your Majesty, these swords are the best weapons in the Qin Dynasty. They were just given to us. Why did Your Majesty say they are no longer needed?"
I smiled slightly: "That's a good question! But you don't need to know yet."
Questioner:…
I continued: "Put the weapons aside for now. I know that you are all elite soldiers and generals selected by the Taiwei, and you are loyal to the Qin Dynasty and to me. I summoned you today, firstly, to see if you are too strong. As Wei said, one can fight a hundred, so what's the second one?"
I glanced around: "Everyone look up and remember my appearance! Now I am your general, and in the future the best among you will become the new general. But no matter who your general is, you must always remember, I am your first general and the only person you loyal to!"
Everyone shouted in unison: "Your Majesty!"
I nodded with satisfaction, waved my hand and said, "Each of us will return to camp. Five hundred masters and two to five hundred masters will follow me into the camp."
The Chinese military tent.
Looking at the fifteen people in front of me, I said seriously: "I want these five thousand people to remember what I just said. Although you have just been promoted to generals of the new army, you have held the same official position before. Before the supervisory army arrived, You were responsible for these things before.”
Everyone agreed.
I glanced at Yuchi: "Select suitable supervisors as soon as possible to participate in training together. Not only must they meet the previous requirements, but one more thing must be added: their physical fitness must be excellent, at least no worse than ordinary soldiers. By the way, after the supervisors are selected in the future , just enter the Great Qin Military Mansion to study, they already have a systematic training method, there is no need to wait for the general teaching regulations that Zhang Han is drafting."
Yuchi raised his hand and said yes, as if he was used to strange words like physical fitness, physical training, etc. popping out of my mouth.
"The second thing is that starting from today, your training methods will change. Mainly in two aspects. One is physical training. I have asked the lieutenant to prepare horizontal bars, parallel bars, dumbbells, obstacles and other training equipment, as well as weights Training methods such as long-distance running, boxing, fighting, etc. will help you train your physical fitness scientifically."
A few people were still immersed in the weird words about physical training, but they heard me continue: "The other one is about training your orders and prohibitions!"
Wang Jin asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, we have been in battle for a long time. We always obey the general's orders absolutely and do not dare to slack off."
I smiled slightly and said approvingly: "That's good. Judging from the several battles I have won and the rebellions I have put down since I came to the throne, Great Qin's army has not let me down."
"However." I changed the topic: "You also said that you can give orders and prohibitions when facing the enemy on the battlefield. What about normal training, family visits, etc.? I hope you can also maintain the majesty of the Qin army in front of the people of Qin. . This does not mean that you are allowed to yell, walk through the city, or even bully the people, but that the people will know that you are the Qin army when they see you, and praise the Qin army for its strict military discipline. I have heard from many supervisors that you have a poor image. It’s the opposite of what I just said.”
A few people smiled awkwardly, and Sun Jifeng, the leader of the 2500 army, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, all the soldiers in the army are men. If you encounter a female mosquito on weekdays, you have to study it carefully for a long time. It is inevitable that you will be a bit casual outside the camp."
I laughed and nodded: "That's right, it's human nature. But if you want to relax, there are some right ways. Although the supervisory army has strictly prohibited gambling in the army, I'm afraid you are still short of money. Now the salary of the Qin army It has been slightly improved, and I will consider raising the rates again."
Everyone quickly thanked him.
I waved my hand: "The military order you are about to implement will be the military order of all Qin armies from now on. I want to be the first to see the results on you. It mainly includes goose-stepping, making beds, formation training, etc. In short, we must always maintain the image of the Qin army. Dare to speak out when encountering injustice and be willing to help others when encountering difficulties.”
Everyone was a little confused for a moment. They couldn't understand the kicking step, but they could understand the making of the bed.
Someone asked: "Your Majesty, may I ask what the relationship between making the bed and marching to fight..."
I stood up and asked them: "Why do you think the soldiers are able to obey orders and prohibitions?"
Wang Jin cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, of course there are military disciplines!"
I nodded and continued to ask, "You're right. Since there are military disciplines, why do many soldiers follow orders and prohibitions on the battlefield, but once they leave the camp, they forget about military discipline and start doing random things?"
"This..." Everyone looked at each other, speechless for a moment.
I solemnly said: "On the battlefield, soldiers know that military discipline is the basis for maintaining formation. Who dares to violate it? Once military discipline is abandoned and the formation is messed up, the only thing waiting for him is to be killed by the enemy, so they will strictly abide by military discipline and general orders. Just fight with all your heart. This is not the case in Liying. They may be the weak side on the battlefield, but compared with the common people, they are the strong side. Apart from being caught and punished by the generals, they can be bullied at will without danger. Naturally, they have no Afraid."
Everyone nodded and agreed, everyone is like this, they always like to draw their swords on the weaker ones.
"So I want them to form a mechanical reaction. No matter where they are or who they face, they must remember that they are soldiers who protect their home and country and abide by military discipline and orders. This is easy to do on the battlefield, but you need to rely on these in normal times. Constraining them with 'little things' can not only make them enforce orders and prohibitions, but also establish the image of the Qin army."
"Imagine that after they leave the camp, they sit like a bell, stand like a pine tree, and walk like the wind. They are loved by the people. They enjoy it and will naturally pay attention to maintaining their own image. If there are many such people, it will affect other people, because once If you ruin your reputation outside, you will lose the face of the entire Qin army."
Everyone was filled with admiration and said in unison: "Your Majesty is wise!"
"Okay." I waved my hand and said, "You all go down and get ready. The Taiwei has printed the "Qin Army Drill Manual" into a book. Each person has one copy. In addition to training every day, they also study the manual. I don't care if they understand it or not. Literacy, even if it is a child's learning, must be memorized. Starting tomorrow, the training will officially begin!"
At nine o'clock the next day, the new army gathered early and started running. This did not trouble them. Walking is necessary for marching and fighting.
But when they were asked to practice goose-stepping, they came up with all kinds of tricks, just like college students doing military training, which made me want to laugh. Although the new army was a little bit dissatisfied, when he saw me practicing this strange pace, he immediately became energetic and began to study seriously.
The reason why I proposed to be a general was firstly to keep the new army firmly in my hands, secondly because I was afraid that Zhang Han and the others would make mistakes in their training, and thirdly because I was embarrassed that I couldn't even pull up a horizontal bar in the Great Qin Army. The experience left me haunted, just in time to get some exercise.
