Time flies forward two months.
The cultivation of earthworms has become formalized after countless trials and errors.
Now in Xianbei, Zhang Qi recruited two thousand people from Wuhuan to breed earthworms in the acres of fields that had not been planted with crops.
The ground in the fields was compacted extremely solid, and then the dung was used as the base and covered with thatch, which was enough.
There are one thousand acres of earthworm fields, and two thousand people are responsible for them. With the growth rate of earthworms, the feces and soil in these acres will be turned into good fertilizer in a few months, and the earthworms will be sent to poultry farms except for the seeds. .
Liaodong.
Bohai pier.
Zhang Qi personally led people here.
On the river boat, all supplies are packed, and navy uniforms, medals, and awards are all ready.
This is the last day of training and selection in the Navy. The list of those selected has been submitted to Zhang Qi. Today he is here to award the medal.
To improve the army, start with the navy, because this is a brand new army that can be done at will by Zhang Qi.
same day.
Three hundred dark faces lined up on the pier under the scorching sun.
The scorching temperature must be unbearable for ordinary people, but these soldiers who have been training for three months are already used to it.
Their eyes were bright, staring at the river above the mouth of the sea. Not long after, four or five river boats with full sails came down the river. On the river boats, the gold-backed and silver-edged Chinese flags shone brightly.
"stand at attention!"
Liu Perun saw the ship and shouted loudly with a long voice.
Snapped,
The soldiers who originally clenched their fists with their hands behind their backs subconsciously closed their legs and let their hands hang on both sides of their thighs.
In two months, Liu Perun completely impressed these soldiers. They trained several times as much as they did, and they ate and lived with them. Even though these soldiers were the elites who attacked the various armies, they had no choice but to respect Liu Perun.
The speed of the river boat slowly slowed down, and then it docked at the dock under the control of the sailors on the boat.
The board was put down.
Zhang Qi, wearing a gorgeous aristocratic armor only worn on Advent and a jeweled crown, slowly stepped off the boat.
On the other ships, three hundred girls with good looks were each holding a wooden tray. On the tray, blue and white clothes were neatly stacked. On the clothes, glittering silver medals were dotted with bright red ribbons.
"I've seen you, Your Majesty!"
The moment Zhang Qi got off the ship, three hundred navy men shouted loudly.
Zhang Qi smiled, walked forward, and came to the generals.
"You have worked hard in the past three months, but I am very relieved to see your high will today. You are all good men!"
"For your Majesty! A worthy death!"
The three hundred navy men had bright eyes, and there was a bright light in their eyes.
"Hahaha, okay, you have been selected successfully today, and I am here with my original promise."
"Liu Perun!"
"The general is here!"
"Start awarding medals!"
"promise!"
"Everyone has it!"
"stand at attention--!"
"The famous ones come forward!"
The girls holding trays came to Zhang Qi's side, and they also looked at the three hundred naval officers curiously.
"Asuka!"
Zhang Qi called the names. Although the soldiers in the army had names, they were all named after common things, so they were all strange.
A man who was not tall but had strong muscles ran out from the first row of taxis.
His face was full of excitement and he was trembling slightly.
"Your Majesty, come on!"
Running up to Zhang Qi, Feiniao stood at attention and saluted.
Zhang Qi smiled gently and nodded at him praisingly: "Not bad, he is a good boy. I hope he will work harder in the future."
"promise!"
Zhang Qi praised Feiniao, and then took the silver medal from the tray in the hand of the girl on the side. The medal looked like a sailboat, with a wave base, and was more than twice the size of a one-yuan coin. , weighing thirty grams.
"This is a naval officer's medal of a generation. It is only awarded to you. Keep it well and make it a family heirloom."
Patting Feiniao on the shoulder, Zhang Qi personally carried it for him.
Asuka's dark face was flushed with excitement, and she even stuttered a little.
"Thank you. Thank you!"
"Haha, you got this all by yourself, you don't need to thank me."
"This is a navy uniform that I personally designed. The sun is strong at sea, and wearing a long shirt can easily cause heatstroke. I will wear this on the ship from now on."
After putting the medal on Feiniao, Zhang Qi took out the clothes in the tray and handed them to Feiniao. The clothes were no different from modern clothes. The fabric was ordinary fabric, but the stitches were denser.
The blue and white uniforms of the navy are not as eye-catching as the navy uniforms in the previous life. In the final analysis, it is still a matter of dyes. The steward of the weaving workshop also worked hard to find these two dyes.
Asuka thanked him again, but he couldn't salute because he was holding clothes in his hands.
Zhang Qi smiled and patted his shoulder again: "Okay, let's go down. From now on, you will be a glorious naval officer. When you return, you will form your own army."
"No! You deserve to die for your Majesty!"
Feiniao straightened his body again, then turned back neatly and strode back to the military formation.
"cattle!"
"."
"."
Zhang Qi spent an afternoon conferring honors on three hundred soldiers.
After the medal was placed on the last person, Zhang Qi waved his hand under the latter's excited eyes.
"Thank you for your hard work. The training camp in March has passed. You can take a break for ten days. Ten days later, you will still be here. Yang Fan!"
"promise!"
"promise!"
"promise!"
Three promises, the voice was high-pitched and full of fighting spirit.
After the award, several river boats led by Zhang Qi were full of people. They were all not selected and looked a little depressed.
Looking at them, Zhang Qi laughed. These people actually performed well, but some of them were really not suitable for Shanghai.
This training session also selected many good talents, who can serve as general officers with a little promotion.
The three-masted sailboat sailed upstream faster than the river boat brought by Zhang Qi.
He was on the sailboat at this time, and the people on the boat were naturally those who were selected.
Meals are served on the ship, and many of the girls brought by Zhang Qi are good at cooking. Fish, beef and mutton, and stir-fried bean sprouts are all delicious to these navy soldiers.
There were enough meals and drinks. Since everyone was ordered to take a bath, Zhang Qi was happy to be a good person.
It's just that soldiers are still soldiers after all. After a long period of high discipline, facing the scene where their own kings and superiors were present, they didn't take it too easy, but they were a little more casual than usual.
The ship's sailing speed was not slow, and it only took more than ten hours to return to Wuhuan from the southernmost place in Liaodong.
By the time Zhang Qi got off the boat, it was already early morning on the second day.
The soldiers habitually got up early and were waiting for the daily training, but they didn't think of it until the sun rose.
Oh, take a break.
