In the morning, Zhu Pingan would run with the soldiers to exercise. While the soldiers were practicing formations, fists, kicks, and firearms, Zhu Pingan would end the morning exercises and inspect the drills of the soldiers in each battalion.
The main purpose of running in the morning is to exercise and improve your physical fitness, so that you can lead the army in battle in the future. Although you don't have to be on the front line, you still have to keep up with the march. Not all terrains and conditions can allow you to ride a horse.
There were still Hu Wei and Xia Qiang to make arrangements for today. After Zhu Ping'an's morning run and inspection, he arranged for Liu Mu and others to continue to inspect the battalions to inspect the training of the soldiers of each battalion, while he went to the school field to find Hu Wei and Xia Xian.
The two of them were sitting on the edge of the school ground, their faces pale and sharp. Listening to the continuous banging of gunfire in their ears, and the occasional sound of tiger squatting cannons, their calves were trembling.
When Zhu Pingan found the two of them, he thought they were sick.
When Zhu Pingan took the two of them back to the handsome tent, he found that his uncle Zhu Shouren had already started reading in the handsome tent.
"The Master said: 'Isn't it true to say that one should learn and practice it over time? Isn't it great to have friends come from afar? Isn't it true that a person who doesn't know and is not stupefied is a gentleman?'"
Uncle Zhu Shouren's melodious reading could be heard as soon as Zhu Ping'an and the others entered the door.
Zhu Ping'an's ears were better than ordinary people's. The sound of his uncle's reading only started to sound when he was about ten meters away from the handsome tent. He probably started reading in the morning when he saw that he had brought Hu Wei and Xia Qiang in the handsome tent... …
"Oh, nephew, you are back from your morning exercise. I have been reading for a long time. I have finished reading "Mencius" and almost finished reading the beginning of "The Analects"..." Uncle Zhu Shouren said without blushing or out of breath. .
In fact, when the Zhejiang Army started to practice firearms, he couldn't sleep due to the noise of the firearms, so he got up cursingly. He had just entered the commander's tent, and his chair hadn't even been warmed yet.
As for morning reading, it was indeed as Zhu Pingan thought. Uncle Zhu Shouren had just seen Zhu Pingan and the others coming from a distance through the window of the handsome tent, and he started to pretend to do morning reading.
Zhu Pingan did not expose the uncle, but simply tried his best, making the uncle very proud.
Why are you so proud? Don't forget, Hu Wei and Xia Qiang quickly gave their uncle Zhu Shouren a look.
Uncle Zhu Shouren received the looks from Hu Wei and Xia Chai, and then he realized what he was doing. He approached Zhu Pingan and said with concern, "My dear nephew, there is no rush to prepare for the exam. We can take time to prepare for the exam. The top priority is to prepare for my nephew." To share the worries and solve the problems, my nephew is in charge of the military camp of Nuo Da. There must be a lot of military affairs. I see it in my eyes and feel pain in my heart. I should have come a long time ago. If I had come earlier, my nephew would have been relaxed. "
If you had come earlier, I would have been relaxed? ! Where did you get your confidence? Could it be that Liang Jingru also wore it?
Zhu Ping'an was speechless, with a calm expression on his face, "Well, okay, I do have some official business to trouble you."
"That's right. Don't worry, nephew. Brother Hu and Xia Pin are both outstanding men and women. They are well-equipped in culture, military and military skills, and have experience and experience. They are no less than me in all aspects. We promise to complete the official work for you. So beautiful.”
The eldest uncle Zhu Shouren and Wang Po were selling melons and boasting about themselves. She praised all three of them so much that she patted her chest and said affirmatively.
Zhu Ping'an has long been used to strange things.
In fact, Zhu Pingan said it was arranging work, but in fact it was not arranging work, but a test for them.
"I have some paperwork here and need your help."
Zhu Ping'an planned to test them for about ten days to see if they could undertake basic military affairs.
If they pass the test, then arrange military affairs suitable for them according to their abilities. The Zhejiang Army really needs a group of civilians; if they fail to pass the test, then don't waste each other's time. The military camp does not support idlers, and fighting is not just playing house. There is no room for compromise at home, so you should go home and prepare for the exam.
"No problem, my nephew will make arrangements. But..." Uncle Zhu Shouren rolled his eyes and said a but.
"It's nothing, it's okay for the uncle to speak frankly." Zhu Pingan said lightly, knowing it well, the uncle started to do it again.
"Good nephew, as the saying goes, if the name is not right, the words will not be right. When we work for the good nephew, what official position will be arranged for us? It is just and right." The uncle rubbed his hands and asked with a warm face.
Uh, want an official?!
Zhu Ping'an couldn't be more speechless. He's already asking for an official position before he's done this work. You must be too impatient.
"Uncle, all official positions are appointed by the imperial court, but I have no right to arrange the appointment of official positions. However, when you make meritorious service in the future, I will ask for credit for you. If your meritorious service is enough, the imperial court will not be stingy with rewards. For now, I can only temporarily appoint you as temporary scribes of the Zhejiang Army."
Zhu Pingan smiled bitterly.
"Temporary clerk? Civil servants can't arrange it. Why can't they arrange a hundred households, a general banner, etc.?"
After hearing what Zhu Pingan said, the uncle couldn't help but look disappointed, and then looked at Zhu Pingan eagerly and asked.
"Uncle, no matter whether they are civil servants or military officers, they are all officials of the imperial court. What is an official of the imperial court? As the name suggests, they are appointed by the imperial court."
Zhu Pingan shook his head and replied calmly.
"But nephew, those mountain hunters who followed you before, why did they become the chief flag officer?"
Uncle Zhu Shouren asked in disbelief.
"They were the ones who followed me to defend the city, braved swords and sword rain, were not afraid of life and death, and had meritorious service in killing the Japanese. For their merits, they were awarded the title of general banner by the court. Now that the Japanese invasion is serious, there will be more opportunities to kill the enemy in the future, and there will also be opportunities to make meritorious deeds. Most of all, as long as you have made enough contributions, uncle, I will ask for credit for you, and you can also receive a reward."
Zhu Pingan looked at his uncle Zhu Shouren seriously and said slowly.
Hu Wei gently pulled his uncle Zhu Shouren's sleeve and nodded, indicating that he was ready and not to miss his business.
Xia Qiang also gave his uncle Zhu Shouren a few looks, telling him to calm down. As the saying goes, if you are impatient and can't eat hot tofu, how can you ask for an official position when you first come? You should at least do some military work for a while, even if you don't have any merit. Only when you work hard can you open your mouth to ask for an official position. This way, when people think of your hard work, it is not easy to refuse.
"Yeah, what my nephew said is true, then let's wait for my nephew to ask for credit for us." Uncle Zhu Shouren played a clever trick and deliberately misinterpreted Zhu Ping'an's words.
"Of course, as long as you have made meritorious service, uncle, I will ask for credit for you." Zhu Pingan emphasized.
Only if you have made meritorious deeds can I ask for credit for you. If you have not made any contribution, I cannot ask for credit for you.
"Ahem, this is natural. With our ability, meritorious deeds will not come easily, it will only happen sooner or later."
Uncle Zhu Shouren coughed and said proudly.
