Half an hour later, the remaining 500 people from Jizhou Town arrived around the Santun River, and then 20 soldiers from Jizhou Town took long guns and started fishing.
The river water at this time is not as cold and biting as in winter. But the temperature of the water is not high. If people stay there for a long time, they will easily get sick.
"Send someone to deliver rubber shoes to them." The leader of the guards who was staring at the team from a distance directly ordered.
After all, this is just an exercise, there is no need for the soldiers to suffer due to the cold river water.
As the command of the Imperial Guard Commander was issued, the two cavalrymen soon handed over the pair of rubber shoes they had just taken out from the 3rd Tun Camp.
The soldiers in Jizhou Town were not pretentious. They quickly accepted the rubber shoes and gave them to the soldiers who went into the water to catch fish.
"I sent them some firewood and a small pot, and told them that they would easily get sick if they drank the river water directly and ate raw fish."
After watching the other party put away the rubber shoes, the guard commander continued to order.
As the order was given, the guards soon sent firewood and a small pot.
The generals of Jizhou Town were not pretentious and quickly accepted the things sent by the other party.
"Light up the fire and boil the water immediately," said the general of Jizhou Town.
They know that drinking raw water and eating raw meat can easily make you sick.
So generally, when everyone goes out, everyone carries a water bottle with them.
The kettle is usually filled with cold boiled water.
Now that the imperial guards are sending things to their side, they are naturally not afraid of those who come.
"The guards are really stingy. Such a small pot can only boil up to eight bowls of water at a time, which is enough for about 20 brothers to have a drink each. Everyone has not eaten or drank for nearly a day. This Aren’t you asking people to scold them for being stingy?”
Soon there were complaints from soldiers.
"Brothers, this is the other party's conspiracy. The other party wants to make us dissatisfied internally through this method so as to defeat us in one fell swoop. Whoever brought the bowl will take it out. After the water boils, let the ten brothers below first catch fish for everyone. Let’s take the bowls and warm them up,”
The general of Jizhou Town said that people suffer from scarcity but not from inequality. Everyone has been hungry and thirsty for a day. If a bowl of hot water and a piece of food suddenly appeared, no one would really be tempted.
If this happens to refugees, it will definitely cause turmoil. ,
If placed in a family, it may cause turmoil. If the entire family is thirsty and hungry for three days, there will definitely be chaos.
But the army is different.
Although there is no absolute fairness in this situation, as long as the officers take responsibility, there will definitely be no problems.
After the 20 brothers have finished drinking the hot water, they will take their weapons and be on guard outside. The rest of the people will continue. Whoever drinks the hot water will go outside and guard for a while.
"As commanded."
Under reasonable command, the combat effectiveness of this army is recovering bit by bit.
"I really underestimate you, but you should be glad that you are my Ming Dynasty's sergeant, otherwise, I will definitely not let you live."
"At an interval of 300 steps, let the brothers divide into two waves and take turns monitoring each other."
The commander of the imperial guard ordered that it was not difficult for him to defeat the army in front of him, but under the current circumstances, he did not want to defeat the opponent.
It's not that he is soft-hearted, but that he feels that such Ming soldiers have faith and deserve respect.
